DALLAS, Texas, April 16.— The fol-
lowing is a copy of a letter mailed by
Luther Nickels, manager of -the Bailey
campaign, to M. H. Wolfe, chairman of
the Texas Democratic State executive
committee, late Thursday evening:
"Dallas, Texas, April 15.—Your prop-
osition that we put up $300,000 in cash
before you will perform your duty of
calling our request for a primary elec-
tion to ths attention of the members of
the committee, each one of whom has
an equal right with you to pass on it,,
is so wholly arbitrary as to evidence a
purpose to use the powers of your office
to assist the extravagant faction of the
party in their desperate and failing
attempt to commit the Democracy of
Texas to an endorsement of the wild
extravagances of the Federal and State
administrations, as well as to an sn-
dorsement of that provision of ths
League of Nations covenant and peace
treaty which, if adopted, inevitably
means that the price of cotton for years
to com will be depressed with addi-
tional profits to you as a cotton factor.
There is little wonder, therefore, that
you do not desire the farmers who raise
the cotton and ths farmers and busi-
ness men who pay the unconscionably
burdensome -taxes imposed by your
progressive brethren to have any voice
with respect to these endorsements, and
that, therefore, you abuse the functions
of your office to demand $300,000 in
cash.
"But let it bs understood once for
all that you or anybody else will not
get $300,000 or any other sum from us
as the price of the performance of your
duty. This for various reasons: One
is that we have nothing but a very
small sum contributed by individual
Texas Democrats; we do not even have,
as our opponents apparently have, an
executive committeeman tq dispatch to
Washington in emergencies for funds
and for a connection with the presi-
dential coat tails. Again, your arbitrary
estimate of $300,000 (which, of course,
parrot-like, you repeat from the Waples
case) implies that you expect as far
as possible to appoint only anti-Bailey
officers in every precinct, who will not
only demand high wages to bo fixed
under your direction, but who wjll
assist in bringing about that rockloss
waste of money, if we should put it
up,—-which would be analogous to the
unscionable extravagances of the
Federal and State governments for
which you demand an endorsement.
“But it may be that the members of
your committee would like to be given
the opportunity to consider our request,
and if you will be even fair enough to
communicate the request for thsir con-
sideration, as it is clsarly your legal
duty to do, they might considsr it fair-
ly. If this be done, an election can bs
speedily provided for along ths lins.
generally speaking, of the election of
1908, and under a plan whereby good
men can be procured in most countiss
who will’serve as election judgss with-
out pay.
“We know that Bailey men, in every
instance, will servs without pay; we
do not believe, as you imply, that all
anti-Bailey men will dsmand sxorbitant
pay, A plan can easily bs worked out,
under the direction* of your committee,
whereby the sicetion can be held at a
nominal expense. All we would ask
would be that your committee name

Bailey—one who is a personal friend,
also. He assured me that from what

AGUA PRIETA, Honors, April 16.--
Sonora troops continued their march
toward Cullacan, capital of the adjoin-
ing state of Sinaloa, today, according
to information given out at military
headquarters here.
Military authorities said that success
of Sonora troops in Sinaloa would give
the seceding state the military power
necessary to successfully overcome any
force President Carranza might send
against the northern state. Carranza,
according to reports received by Sonora
officials, press dispatches and official
Mexican federal reports, intends send-
ing at least three armies against So-
nora. One of these, it was said, is to
attack the state from Sinaloa, another
by landing on Sonora territory from
southern porta in transports, and the
third from Chihuahua on the east.
Honora troops, however, have taken
the aggressive in the south and crossed
the Sinaloa boundary and captured
two towns. Leaders of the Sonora
movement here said the attack from
the sea must fail, and that troops were
being sent in increasing numbers to
the Chihuahua boundary.
Revolts in Othsr States.
Rumors continue to be circulated
throughout Sonora and in high admin-
istrative circles of the revolt of other
states and Federal troops in sympathy
with the Honora movement. Confirma-
tion of these reports is lacking.
Sinaloa will be a rich ally for Sonora
and as important a loss for Carranza
if it goes over to the “new republic."
The state is one of the richest min-
ins districts on the continent. poten-

CHICAGO, April 16.—Speedy disin-
tegration of unauthorized railroad
strike in the central and far West was
forecast today as a result of the se-
rious blow struck by the government
at the insurgents’ stronghold in Chi-
cago by the arrest of twenty-five strike
leaders.
The arrest of the Chicago leaders
who were at liberty today under bonds
of $10,000, or arranging for bail, with
promises to refrain from participation
in strike activities pending hearing of
charges of violation of the Lever food
control act, left local insurgents virtu-
ally leaderless.
Although some leaders declared they
had "just begun to fight," it was un-
derstood that a meeting would be held
during the day to determine the atti-
tude of the insurgents’ organization
toward the government’s ultimatum
that interference with shipments of
food and other necessities must stop.
Warnings were issued In the principal
strike centers In the West that unless
the men returned to work by tomorrow
their positions would be declared va-
cant and new men employed.
Many Return to Work.
In Chicago 850 switchmen employed
on various roads returned to wcrk yes-
