memorial was unanimously adopted:
To the President and Senators and
Representatives in the National Con-

Whereas. We, the members Of Cen

pain and alarm of the recent arrest
and Imprisonment of Rev. Alberto J.
Diaz, a naturalized citizen Of these
United States, and missionary Of the
Southern Baptist Convention at Ha-

Whereas, We have great reason to
believe that ecclesiastical rather than
political influences have led to his ar
rest and imprisonment; therefore
Resolved, That we most earnestly re-
quest that you will do all that can pos
sibly be done consistent with the honor
OF our country to secure his release and
restoration to the work in which he has
been so long and successfully engaged.

1T will be seen that Kentucky, New
Mexico and Utah have fallen below my
estimate; five in Kentucky, one in New
Mexico and one in Utah, while Georgia,
Indiana, Kansas, Illinois, North Da-
kota, Oklahoma, South Carolina and
Wisconsin have all gained. This COM
parison of the original estimates, which
aggregate 433, with the actual results
from elections in eighteen States, shows
Very clearly that the estimate was too
low.
There have been elected delegates in
States that l did not claim in that esti-
mate-Minnesota 1S New York 4 and
Pennsylvania > And it Will thus be
seen that if the the same ratio of gain
is maintained to the end of the States
forming my original prediction there
will not only be the 433 delegates
claimed, but there will be clear ma
jority OF the convention in these States
and those in which / claimed nothing

the news to town of a shooting ARRAY
which took place in that neighborhood
several days ago but fortunately result
ed only in one horse being shot through
tae neck and w. F. Hodgens being shot
i'm the leg. The circumstances leading
up to the affair as related by the mes
senger were as follows: Several DAYS
before the shooting took place, one
John Hellum went to Julius La Dues
ranch and told La Due that he was go
ing to jump his ranch on the ground
that La Duo had not taken out his first
naturalization papers before 1891, and
foreigners who had not taken out their
papers prior to that year could not take
advantage Of the homestead law. La
Due, after listening to Hellum's story.
Informed him that he had a large fam
lily depending on him and he had no
other source to look to for a living and
told him that he would better drop the
matter as he could not afford to have
law suit with him. Before Hellum
left the ranch La Due went TO the house
and got his papers and let him see
them, but Hellum says they were dated
since the passage of the homestead law
and went right along with his proceed
ings.
The necessary instruments were
drawn up and filed with the proper Off
Ger, and Hellum in a few days went
back to the place and did some plow-
ing. Later on he took several of his
neighbors and went over on one corner
of the ranch to build a log cabin La
Due seeing what was going on told
some men that IL he continued his work
some one would get killed. Mr.. Hellum
was not alarmed at the mans state
ment and continued to haul the logs
with which to build the house. The
next morning he. in company with w
F. Hodgens and one Taylor, had Just
driven over to the place with a load of
logs when some one, about so rods
away. began pouring Winchester rife
bullets into their midst. six or seven
shots being fired before any of them
took effect. One of the horses hitched
to the wagon in which Mr. Hodgens
was seated. was shot through the neck,
and as soon as struck jumped forward

Mr.. Hodgens realizing what had hap
pened jumped down from the wagon TO

but had no sooner reached the ground
than one Of the balls hit him in the calf
of the leg, going clear through The
man who did the shooting was about co
rods from the men and was hidden in
a patch Of brush and continued his
shooting until the three men had left
the place. taking Mr.. HOdgens with
them. None Of the men say they saw
or knew who did the shooting. but the
matter Is being Investigated.
