The suggestion is very common
among the Democracy that Cleve-
land will be their next candidate for
the Presidency, determining the
ability and availability of their man
by the great majority of votes which
he received in the late election. That
vote, If We are not mistaken, does
not even indicate the popularity of
Cleveland. 1t does indicate the in
tense disg;st of the people at the
intrigue and tyranical bossism of the
New York Republican leaders
nothing more. 1t does indicate
singing rebuke which the people OF
New York have administered to
Conkling & Co. We imagine that
two years hence Cleveland will not
be thought of az a candidate. We
should not be one whit surprised to
see Ben Butler the standard bearer
of the Democracy in the next Presi-
Dental contc ST.

sud management of water. But
little trouble has thus far occurred,
but enough has transpired to show
that on tho fist occasi on of severe
drought there will be trouble. Let
the law makers take the matter in

Attempted Assassination.

TOTAL WRECK, Nov. 25--An at
tempt was made to assassinate E. B.
Salsig, Of the firm of Salsig & Sitford,
al Total Wreck by one John Drum
mond, Friday afternoon. The trou-
bic is supposed to have grown out of
Drummond's interference with the
sale of an important mine in the En-
pre- district and the views Mr.. Sal
sig expressed about the matter.
Drummond visited the store of Sal
sig & Sifford, called Salsig out on
the street and Intercepted him in re-
lation to the matter, arp ying to him
epithets which most men resist. Sal
sig hit Drummond, when the latter
drew a revolver and shot the former
three times. The first shot went
through Salsig's arm, near the elbow,
fortunately not touching the bone,
only making Il flesh wound The
second shot struck his side pocket
and went through Il pocket book and
bundle of letters, the ball dropping
in The pocket-b book; but for til 5 1t
might have produced fatal wound
The third shot cut his coat just above
the hip. Drummond was arrested
and bound over to appear before the
grand jury, in the paltry sum of
$500. 1t would be well if such
characters as this Drummo1d cou d

Report Of the San Car'os Indian
Agent.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-The In
dian Office is in receipt of n report
from Agent Wilcox, of San Carlos
agency, giving a detailed account of
the system of counting Indians ev-
cry day, inaugurated October 1S.
The highest number reached W as
1926, and each Indian was marked
with tag and numbered with the
Indian name recorded in a register
kept for that purpose. One of the
good results derived from this meth
cd is that it tells which Indians en-
gage in raids or leave tho reserva-
ton.
The department has, at the request
Of Agent Armstrong, of the Crow
Indian reservation placed sufficient
force around the reservation to pre-
vent raids of the Cheyennes, who
have, as the agent states, robbed the
Crows of supplies to the amount of
$4,000 in their depredations.

DR.. Collins left Washington this
morning. much dissatisfied with the
treatment he received from the
board in refusing to allow him coun-
sci and ruling out nearly all the i'm
portant questions which he submit
ted, and in failing to push his inqui-
ries in the direction he desired. He
says he will now 60 to New York
and veatilatc the matter through the

soon publish damaging affidaviis re-
hecting upon the conduct of the Of |
ficers in charge of the expedition.
hlellville's testimony closed this |
afternoon and the board adjourned |
till Monday. Melville, in his testi-
m"ny to-day said the course of the
officers toward Collins was the same
as toward others, as far as he would |
permit it, but at one time he took Of |
Tense at some remarks made and re-
fused to converse with the officers.

casion when a difficulty occurred be-
tween belong and Collins. 1t is,

Beaver | would withdraw at once.
