a legislative day must be counted. The
argument ran on for an hour before it was
fully understood and agreed that adjourn
ing over three days, Saturday, Sunday and
Monday, and meeting on the fourth day,
Tuesday, was not violating the provision
that forbade adiourning over more than
three days, Langenour brought on the
trouble early in the day by moving that
when the House adjourned it adjourn un-
til noon Tuesday.
Lynch had called Pendleton to preside
and he had nice time of it for an
amateur for the next hour or so, but he
kept them pretty straight. To the pro-
tests in behalf of their several per diems
he said that he had been through just
such trouble last session; that the Attor-
ney-Generai had been appealed to and
given an opinion off-hand that three days
was not four days and the warrants were
honored. Still there were many misgiv-
ings and the attempt to have at least a
semblance of session tomorrow was so
persistent that Laugenour finally with
drew his motion and then Immediately
asked for leave of absence until Tuesday.
This example was followed so hotly that
it looked as though every man in the house
was going to beg off for the three DAYS.
When the margin on quorum was grow
ing thin Bulla protested again. He said
this way of adjourning was as bad as
any other, and he did not propose to lose
his 50 by such a stampede, and when
Brusie, who lives in Sacramento, asked for
leave a motion was made that it be not
granted. A standing vote had to be taken
to decide the matter, but it stood in Bru-
sie's favor, and so the cry continued until
not quorum remained. 1t was explained
that the petitioners were members of Junk
eting committees, and so they were grant
ed leave in collective bodies. When it was
found there was not quorum left the
House argued itself into the opinion that
the three days dropped out did not break
the constitutional provision.
All of the three committees granted
leave of absence left on the O'Clock train
for San Francisco First in Importance to
that city is the Committee on Commerce
and Navigation, of which Dixon of San
Francisco is chairman. 1t is to meet the
Harbor Commission at the latter's office at
10o'clock tomorrow and discuss the plan for
the condemnation of land and the straight
ening of East street. Dixon is very much
interested in the scheme and had wagon
load of maps showing the proposed inn
provement for the information of all the
members of the Legislature. The other

TIE 1tcO COUntTteSs
DENVER, Jan. 25.-A special from Ell
Paso, Tex, says: The city of Juarez,
Mex, opposite this town, seems much ex-
cited over the latest news indicating a war
with Mexico, and the young men especially
are offering their services to the Govern
ment. Manuel M. Bauche, Collector of
Customs and colonel in the army, said in
interview late tonight:
s'I have Just had letter from President
Diaz in which he says that the war may
yet be avoided, in which case he will not
need my services. The President does not
want war, but he is determined to protect
his people"
Colonel Bauche, in discussing the
trouble between the two countries, said:
"The immediate cause of the present
trouble was the seizing of property of
Mexican citizens living in the State of
Chiapas by soldiers of Guatemala. This ter
ritory, lying north of the head of the river
Usumacinta, has long been in dispute. 1t
was long ago decided by the people them
selves that they preferred to live in Mex
leo, and in 1882 the boundary line on the
river now claimed by Mexico was estab-
lished by an international commission.
The chief engineer for Guatemala was
Miles Roche, an American. The present
Government of Guatemala has determined
not to recognize this settlement. The ter
ritory is not large, but it is very valuable
on account Of it's woods, and Mexico will
not give it up"

Mexican arsenal at the citadel there are
being manufactured weekly from forty to
fifty thousand Remington cartridges by
orders from the War Department They
are also engaged night and day upon other
work in order that all of the artillery shall
be completed and ready at a moments no.
tice with full compliments of all kinds of
ammunition. In the arsenal the extreme
activity of the operatives is notable. They
do not rest moment, so that all armament
will be ready and in first-class condition
for the use of an army about entering into
q campaign.
The War Department thinks of sending
the Fourth Battalion of Infantry to Aca-
pulco, but as yet has not issued the march
ing order. It is also rumored that two
battallions of artillery completely equipped
will leave within few days with full bat
teries of steel cannon.
1t is assumed that the Government has
purchased two steamers which navigate in
the Gulf of Mexico, which they viii arm
with necessary artillery for use as trans
ports.
There is an extraordinary activity notable
in every branch of the War Department,
but as yet nothing has transpired for pub
hcity, although it is easy to understand
that the question of Guatemala is what
originated the extraordinary activity.
The mobilization of troops at strategic
, points for an invasion of Guatemala con-
inues daily. Up to date it is known that
1900 troops have been sent and the
mobilization continues incessantly. 1t is
known that telegraphic orders have been
sent for additional rations for the troops
on the Guatemalan frontier, and it is also
well known here that the Government has
sent Hon. Matthias Romero. the represen-
tative in Washington, D. c., secret and
delicate instructions relative to the ques-
ton of Guatemala.
The Mexican Congress is in secret ses-
sion tonight.
Minister de Leon has nothing to say to-
night, though there is a rumor that he
has been telegraphed instructions to do all
in his power to prevent Mexico declaring
war 1t is possible that diplomacy may
yet intervene in time to save trouble be-
tween Guatemala and Mexico.

Guatemala.
SALINA CRUZ, State of Oaxaca, Jan. 25.-It
is reported here that arrangements are
being quietly made by the Mexican war
authorities for the Guatemalan invasion as
soon as hostilities are declared. The
theory is that the armed corvette Zara-
gosa the gunboat Oaxaca and all the Mex
ican boats on the Pacific Coast will be en-
ployed in landing troops at San Jose, Qua
temala, or at some other convenient point.
Immediately on landing the forces will be
pushed with all possible speed across the
country toward the capital, which lies only
about fifty miles from the coast, and where
it is naturally expected the hard fighting
will occur. At the same time the famed
Mexican rural forces will be ready to start
from the various points on the border now
occupied by Mexican troops and cavalry,
sweeping through the country like whirl-
wind. The rurales will aim to clear up
things as they go and be on hand and ready
to cooperate with the sea forces by the
time they have arrived before the city of
Guatemala.
The artillery and other heavy guns will
be shipped by sea and, as the Guatemal-
ans Will prODdDIy 90 all III Unelr power W
prevent landing of the Mexican forces,
it is evident that the artillery mounted
on the Mexican ships and that designed
for besieging service will be Immediately
brought into play. In this event, as there
are several good landing places along the
Guatemalan coast, there will be no diff.
Guilty in eluding opposition, should it be
shown at the regular harbor. The Guate-
malan forces are altogether too small to
put up good fight at more than one or
two points, and Mexico will have probably
little trouble in gaining land.
The evident policy of Guatemala will be
to concentrate all the forces possible on
the coast and northern frontier at the
strategic points and have the forces fall
back upon the Notifications at the Guate-
malan capital if unable to hold their own
against the Mexicans. That this will be
possible is not easily seen in view of the
adroit plan which Mexico is evidently lay
ing to rush in and capture their chief city
on the very start. Should the Guatemalans
destroy the means of subsistence in the
track of the invading Mexicans the rurales
will be used for foraging purposes as well
as for general fighting when needed.

have become standing joke, when in
reality most of the committees had done
excellent work. A subcommittee of three
from the Committee on Military Affairs
and subcommittee of three from the
Committee on Prisons were allowed leave
to visit the institutions in Southern
California. The Senate concurred in the
Assembly resolution for the joint commit
tee on retrenchment to visit the prisons and
to send for persons and papers. The out
come of the whole debate was that Orr's
resolution was referred to the Judiciary
Committee.

But it is to be held in the Assembly

agreed upon. Nearly all the morning was
taken up with discussion of the right of
the Assembly to adjourn for that length of

The ARDMOREITE' position on

road question has been challenged
by some of our best business men.
That they are honest in their con-
victiOn that they do not want the

least, but we are bound to ques-
ton the wisdom of their opposition
No one can be SO blinded by pres
ent conditions and prosperity, as
to correctly arrive at the eOnclus-
ion that this country will not i'm

ed by railroads. We would say
NO more roads, if by that edict
their building would be stopped
but reason backed up by past OBJ
servatiOn plainly indicates that
such will not be the result. Other
roads are as sure as fate to be
built through this section of cOun-
try, then why not accept an OPP
pOrtunity of securing one free

mitting that our present interests
would AnOt be subServed by the
Sherman road, the fact still stands
forth that in coming here the town
and its future would not suffer
half SO mHch as by its tapping the
Santa Fe at some point a few
miles distant north or south of us.
Opposition to its entrance into
ArdmOre will not deter its being
built but it might cause us future
regrets by forming the coveted
connection with the Santa Fe at
some point near us. Sherman did
not want the NJ. K. & T. but a
place ten miles distant did and
DenisOn was the result. That
place would never have known an
existence had Sherman said come

These are possibilities worthy of
study and should be met dispas-

judgement to the best interests of

Sherman people in this enterprise.
