A Cowardly Attempt Made to Shoot
Ed Hughes at the Electric
Light Works.
TWU Shots Fired at Him From
the Outside of the
Building.
The Bullets Came Painfully Close to
His Head, But Did Not In
jure Him.


On Thursday morning, an attempt was
made to shoot Ed. Hughes, who was on
duty at the electric light works, at Bis
marck.
While he was sitting in the boiler room,
the door on the west side of the engine
house was suddenly kicked in, and think
ing it was some ramps trying to get in, he
ran out and closed the door. AS he did,so.
two shots were fired at him from the
north side Of the building through an open
door, the bullets burying themselves in the
wall just above his head. One of the bull
lets struck an in%suIator, which was on a
shelf against the wall, breaking it in
pieces. One of the pieces of glass struck
Hughes OF the head, but did not injure
him. He then shut down the lights
and sent for Officer Marsh.
Mr.. Hughes thinks it the work of an en-
envy, but it seems strange that any one
should be SO malicious as to attempt to take
his life because of spite or jealousy.
1t was certainly a close call for hin and
the party or parties who did the shooting
deserve to be hung from the nearest lamp
post.

You May Travel in Italy.

ROME, April lin reply to a number
of inquiries received at the United States
legation in this city, from Americans in
tending to visit Italy during the coming
season, as to whether it is safe, in view of
the agitation caused by the New Orleans
lynching, to travel in Italy, the officials
of the legation have assured the inquir-
ers that it is perfectly safe to travel in
this country. They say that not a single
case of insult or outrage of which an
American has been the object has been
reported to the legation. Italy is too de-
pendent upon the money spent by travel
ers, which sums are estimated to amount
to 800, 100000 annually, to do anything
that would curtail that expenditure,
especially upon the part of the travellers
from the other side of the Atlantic, who
are considered, with the English, to be
the most liberal dispensers OF coin. OF
this sum it is reckoned that the Ameri-
can travellers spend fully one-ffth. It is
further estimated that 10000 American
travellers visits Rome each year, most of
the hotels and stores of this city depend
ing mainly upon Americans for support.
In any case the excitement supposed to
exist here has been greatly exaggerated.
A farmer named Holcomb of Lacenter,

ing of his house, killing two daughters

owe to them the building of nearly all the

these were only raised just above the

hINVESTI9ATION,n

WHILE not without phase that is
positively ludicrous, it is at the same time
a very sad comment ON the state Of public
sentiment here-these crocodile tears over
the attempted assassination of Senators
Ancheta and Slower" Even the So
called Knights of Labor find upon "inves-
tigaton" that the murderous bullets were
not intended for Mr.. Cation but were
aimed, so they would have gullable
public to believe at the senators
from Grant and Bernslillo. The
Democratic organs also are advocating
this theory of the case with vehemence
that, to say the least, is significant. Pos
sibly they too, have reached their conclu'
sions after due investigation" If they
are, however, sincere, why not push their
investigation" and develop the names
of the asssssins? Ii they know enough
to be able to thus positively proclaim the
real nature of the murderers, perhaps
there is yet something back OF theil
knowledge that they have not revealed

ASSASSINATION.

A dispatch in yesterdays issue, from
Santa Fe, gave an account of an attempt
ed assassination. It is plain now that
the object of the assassin was to kill An
cneta, Mills or Slower, who wore in Cat
ron's Office at that time, and who have
taken prominent part in putting
through the public school bill. The
policy OF the enemies OF progress in this
territory has ALWAYS been to murder
those whom they could not control, and
since Slower, Mills and Ancheta had tax
en- an active part in putting through a
measure for good public schools in this
territory, it is plain that one or the other
Of these gentlemen was the target at
which the assassins almed.-Albuquer.
que Citizen.
Our contemporary at Albuquerque is
usually very correct and candid; in this
instance, however, the Citizen has been
imposed upon and the information upon
which the above editorial is based, has
been given it for purpose and very
likely in order to mislead. No sane OF
honest man at all acquainted with the
circumstances as they exist in this coun-
ty and as they have existed here, and
knowing the desperate and lawless char
acter OF certain element of the Demo-
cratic county here, fortunately not the
party itself, but an element that unfor-
tnnately controls and bosses it, doubts,
that the murderous and cowardy attack
was aimed at Hon. T. B. Catron and at
no one else. The passage Of the school
bill had no more to do with it than the
man in the moon. That is as plain as
plain can be, and all other theories are
the simplest rot and only gotten up for
the purpose of shielding the guilty par
ties, the instigators and conspirators and
to throw the people upon false scent.
Unfortunately for Mr.. Ancheta he was
in the line of fire and got what was des-
tined for Mr.. Catron. The thing will all
out in Gods good time, never fear.
