The Democrats in Indiana have been
congratulating themselves that they had
the Republicans on the defensive in that
state. The liquor question they thought
would prove a source of embarrassment
and weakness to the Republican party
in this years campaign. They are like
ly to be disappointed, however, as We
Republicans do not propose 10 waste
anytime in explaining, but to take a
manly stand by saying that the people
must decide the prohibition question
for themselves. The state convention
will doubtless resolve that the constitu.
tional amendment should be submitted
to the people. and the matter be left for
the voters to decide. Avigorous aggres-
sive campaign will be made on this
issue.

While it is pretty generally conceded
that colossal proportion of the pure
and nndefiled patriotism of the country
is treasured within the Immaculate
hide of the editor OF the Republican,
there is mild suspicion afloat that if the
delegates appointed 10 the district con-
venIlon had been selected by the con-
mittee from the names submitted TO
them by a prominent member of the
syndicate, the corporation organ down
siFeet would never have been seized by
the spasm OF virtue which resulted in
the call for the Americas convention

Fleeing HostiIes.

DALLAS, May 24.-Much alarm is felt
at CarriZZia pass, 113 miles east of Ell
Paso on account of the proximity of
large parties of hostile Apaches going
northwest at a distance of three TO five
miles from the camps of hunters, min
ers and prospectors near CarriZzia's pass
and in full sight. The hostiles are flee
ing to New Mexico, being dry
en- by the Mexicans who are making In
dian Staying one of their chief indus
tries to secure the $500 offered by the
Mexican government for the scalp of
each hostile Indian. Major Baylor and
fifteen of his Texas rangers are there and
were to scout yesterday after the hostiles.
This is the only place were the Indians
can get through the Guadelope noun
tains. and the miners fear an attack but
are prepared. No outrages reported yet.

CONVICTED.
Conclusion of the Yarberry Trial at Al
buQuerQue.

Conclusion of the Yarberry Trial at Al
buquerque.
ALBUQUERQUE, n. NJ, May 20-The
trial of Milton Yarberry, charged with
the murder of Chas. Campbell on the
18th of last June, in progress in this
place for the past week, resulted in the
conviction of Yarberry of murder in the
first degree.
AT the time of the murder Yarberry
was acting city marshal OF the new
town. He had few weeks previously
been acquitted of the
MURDER OF YOUNG MAN
named Brown, a nephew of ex-Gov. j.
G. Brown, of Tennessee.
In this latter case the circumstances
in brief were that at night pistol shot
was fired by some drunken man near q
saloon. Yarberry, with his accustomed
zeal, started to arrest the man, but,
probably not knowing the culprit, saw
q man quietly crossing the street and Or
dered him to throw up his hands; not
responding, Ysrberry and his deputy
opened fire upon the unconscious man
and killed him outright.
Campbell evidently did not know he
was challenged, but the defense broke
down in an attempt to prove that Camp
bell fired at Yarberry and that pistol
was subsequently found near the dead
body, both theories being emphatically
disproved by the best evidence.
The defense was very ably conducted
by Judge Trimble and Col. Chavese, and
the prosecution by District Attorney A.
r. Owen and Col. VIM. Breeder, Of San
ia Fe The prosecution was irresistible
in its force, the argument of Col. Bree-
den being considered one of the most
eloquent and logical eyer heard in this
territory.
The conviction of Yarberry is a sub
stantial victory for the law and order
party, and the death knell of the roughs.
A new era of peace and prosperity opens
for Albuquerque.

MYSTERIOUS Proceedings.

CHICAGO, Ill, May 20.-Some mystic
riOus proceedings were had in the feder.
al court to day when James b. Doyle,
the convicted counterfeiter was brought
in for sentence. 1t was intimated that
potent influences had been at work and
that he would not go to the penitentiaIy.
The event justified the statement, Judge
Bangs, prisoners counsel, said to the
court that he had learned on trust
worthy authority that the Washington
authorities desired the sentence suspen-
ded for time, at least, and the prisoner
admitted to bail.
District Attorney Leake said the at.
torney-general had instructed him to
Withdraw the motion for immediate SEN
tence of Doyle which he accordingly did.
The court refused 10 reduce tue bail, but
it is believed Doyle will be released be-
fore midnight.
Up to midnight, although strenuous
efforts had been put forth, Doyle had
not been able 70 procure bail. His coun-
sci say that the government is becoming
convinced of Doyle's innocence, but the
district attorney says that the authori-
ties at Washington are evidently work
ing on some other track than that.
Doyle was seen on the streets tonight
with deputy enjoying himself.
