Another Example.

This Congressional District appears to be creating more talk and interest than all the others put together.-Ft. Smith Times.
 The cause of this is Breckinridge's E failure to represent correctly his con stituency in voting against silver Texarkana Democrat.
 A great man one said, orthodoxy is my doxy and heterodoxy is your doxy.n He realized to the fullest extent that man is naturally prone to intolerance The above senti- ment expressed by the Demortut is but another example of that ten deney. Our Representative has seen fit to take a stand upon the sil= Yer question in accordance with what he considered best under the circumstances. He voted for repeal, notwithstanding the fact that every one Of his colleagues opposed it. A great many of his constituents do not agree with him. On the other hand, many applaud his action Does it follow that simply because Mr. Breckinridge has failed to please all the people in regard to one ques- tion that the district has not been faithfully represented? Not even his most violent enemy would ad- init that. Many people can see more than one thing at a time. There are other things in life, strange as it may seem, besides the silver question, and the people of Arkan= sas can thank God that they have one Congressman at least who doesn t look at National affairs through the butt end of a telescope. Mir. Breckinridge's influence with the River and Harbor Committee is marked, and many times but for his personal and jealous efforts our State would have gone begging, our rivers would have been neglected and serious loss would have occur red. And yet we are not truly rep sented because the paseage of the repeal bill doesn't suit some local politicians. Even metropolitan journals admit that in the Ways and Means Committee our Conqress- man is by far the hardest worker and one of the best posted men in Congress.
 Hasten the day when journalism will be broad minded and manly, truthful and straightforward, ex. pressing conviction fearlessly and at the same time crediting others with some brain and capacity for independent thought and action.

TROUBLE IN MEXICO.
Reyolutionists Capture Ascen-
 sion and Corralitos.
FEDERAL TROOPS EN ROUTE
They Have Instructions From President Diaz to show No Mercy to Any of the KevoImtionists, but to shoot Them
 Down Wherever Captured.

FL PAso. Tex. Nov. 18.-Mexican Consul Jose zayos has called upon District Judge c. N Bucklor and filed petition to the state, asking for the arrest and detention of long list of supposed revolutionists It is known that three of the leaders of the trouble at Ascension and Palomas. headed by Lopez are in El Paso as committee to secure arms and recruits. This is known to the Mexican consul, but he could not present positive evidence of the fact and Judge Buck1er refused to act
 The presence of Lopez, the leader of the organizers has created no little amount of uneasiness among the Fed eral officers of Juarez and the City of Mexico, as is evidenced by the fact that President Diaz has telegraphed the military authorities at the former city to show no mercy to any of the revolu- tionists captured, but to shoot them at once without ceremony. Lopez is not in El Paso at present, but he accom- plished much while here. He offered positions of military rank without re- gard to nationality to any and all men who would organize company of sol- diers.
 Where he so mysteriously disap- peared no one knows. and his sudden sinking out of sight is puzzling the spies sent here to follow and watch his movements.
 Wednesday night special train left Chihuahua with six troops of cavalry and three companies of infantry. The former disembarked at San Jose and struck out for the west, presumably for Gorralitos, while the infantry came through to Juarez to guard the custom house. The cavalry troops will be joined by other Federal forces from Casa Grande. and will try to hold Cor ralitos against the rebels, who, it is claimed, however, have possession of that point.
 1t is known that the troops from Casa Grande and the revolutionists who took Ascension and Palemas have met i'll battle. but the results have not been heard. The sympathizers with the rebel forces are satisfied that the Federals were worsted, in which case they claim that Gorralitos is now in the hands of the rebels and that the six troops of cavalry dispatched from Chihuahua will avail nothing, and the captors have had their number doubled at Cerrali- tos, each recruit being well armed and fully equipped.
 The Diaz Mormon colonists located near Lake Palomas, just across the bor- der, have been ordered to abandon their homes. Information from the refugees now coming in from Palomas is to the effect that small detachment of the revolutionists remain there, while an- other small detachment has taken charge of Ascension. The main body is now supposed to be at Corralitos, but the reported capture of that place cannot be confirmed on account of it's distance from telegraph lines.
 The refuges say the roads for 100 miles south are in possession of the rebels, which gives them complete knowledge of the approach of the Fed eral troops against whom they are car -ying on guerrilla warfare.

The action brought by the Big Black
Creek improvement Company against
Mahlon j. Kemerer, of Mauch Chunk,
in the Philadelphia court recently, end
ed in verdict for the improvement
Company for $23, ,246. The action grew
out of the leasing of the old Harleigh
coliery.
The lease was originally made in 1873 to
Thomas S. McNair, of Hazeton, but the
property afterwards came under the con-
troll of Mr.. Kemerer by transfer of the
lease. This lease called for the purchase
of mine cars, pumps and machinery on
the land for $4,000; the renting of
miners houses, store buildings, etc.. for
5000 month; the erection of machinery,
etc, capable of preparing 10000 tons of
coal annually for market, and the pay
ment of 900 per year as minimum
royalty. The lessee was also to keep
the mines free from water, but it was
averred that this part of the agreement
was not kept, in consequence of which
the lessee suffered heavy losses.
In the defense Mr.. Kemerer alleged
that he had paid to the Improvement
Company all sums due it; that he had
suffered heavy losses in the operations
of the coal lands under this lease; that
the mine on the property, when the
lease was made to McNair, had been
virtually abandoned, had cayed in, oc-
casioning the loss of two miners lives,
and had been flooded, but that he
spent large sums of money to put it in
working order again; that, owing to the
negligent manner in which operators
of adjoining mines and the Improve
ment Company managed the water in
the mines and in an adjoining water
way, the mine belonging to the lessee
had been unavoidably flooded.

After being removed from the.mines he
was: taken to his boarding house, kept
by a fellow-countryman, on Walnut

When the ambulance drove up the
lady of the house appeared at the door
and refused to let the unfortunate man
in. The physicians wished to have him
washed and examine his injuries before
sending him to the hospital, but this
even was not allowed.
He was then taken to Hazleton in his
working clothes, and was suffering very
much about the back and hips, where
the coal from the blast had struck him.
