which is a virtual abandonment of the field to
the Southern Pacific. This latter company
will now continue building their road east
from Fort Yuma. The bill now pending be-

WASHINGTON, May 5.-The Republican
plan OF campaign for the fall elections in
ern Congressional districts which are close o. or
which have within a recent period sent Re-
publican representatives to Congress. 1t is
argued that in these districts the President s
policy has prompted ambitious Democrats to

that it will be easy to slip in Republican

speakers to be heard, and especially any yio-
lence that might be offered them, would have
a telling effect against the Democrats in

the Republicans asked some Southern Demo-
cratic members how they would treat any
