POLITICAL WAITS.

The Taos county Democratic conven-
ton is in session to-day.
The Dona Ana county Republican con-
vention is in progress this afternoon.
Santa Fe county Republicans pretend
to know nothing about when their county
convention will take place-most all the
bosses are out of town.
Says the Las Vegas Optic: "Sir Ralph
E. Twitchell denies most emphatically
that he is indicting editorials or political
communications for any newspaper in
the land, though he is in line with the
gold-standard Republicans and his SER
vices are at their disposal, at any hour of
the day or night-outside the column
rules, unless his John Hancock be at
tached to his articles"
In confirmation Of the New MKx1oAN's
statement of some days ago-questioned
by some and denied by other Republi
cans-the following from the editorial
page of the Lordsburg Liberal is repro
duoed: "The Hon. j. A. Ancheta, who
was nominated for the house from the
counties of Grant and Dona Ana, refuses
to accept the nomination, and the dele.
gates from the two counties to the terri
torial convention will have to meet again
and select man for this position"
Hundreds of copies of that nasty little
Catronist organ, the Rincon Weekly, edit
ed by the Republican territorial central
committee, and wreaking with falsehood
and mud-slinging directed at Gov. Thorn
ton and the editor of the NEW MEXICAN,
we're circulated in Santa Fe to day. Near
ly every citizen who is thought by the
officers of this committee to be easy prey
for the Catronists received marked copy
of the dirty sheet-just as though the
people of Santa Fe we're fools, and hadn't
sense enough to think out for themselves
and vote at the coming election according
to the dictates of their conscience! Truly,
the bosses poems are put to hard straights
when they have to go to an obscure week
ly organ like this Rincon rodent in order
to get their side of the case before intel.
ligent people.
Citizen Webber has addressed note to
the Albuquerque Democrat explaining
how it happened that the territorial Pop
ulists pulled down their nominee, ex. Gov.
Prince. Mr.. Webber takes pains to deny
the Democrats statement that Gov.
Prince retired of his own accord, and in
sists that his name was taken down before
he had received any sort of formal mott
fcation.

Miss Cochran, daughter of John Coch-
ran, formerly of Glorieta, late of Cooper's
mills, was brought in from the Pecos
last night by Frank Emmerson, and taken
to st. Vincent hospital, suffering from a
gun-shot wound in the back part of her
foot. The shot was accidental. 1t APP
pears that Mr.. j. W. Cooper, the worthy
owner of the Cooper mills, took shot at
skunk in the dusk on Tuesday evening
and several of the shot entered Miss
Cochran's foot. Naturally Mr.. Cooper
was terribly shocked and annoyed over
the accident. Miss Cochran is getting on
comfortably.

choruses competed. Each city had raise
an excellent choral society especially for
the Eisteddfad. The Oaklanders had pre-
pared ''The Last Rose in Welsh and the
San francisco singers had mastered the
same chorus in English, and there was in
tense interest to see which choir would win
the prize of $50.
w nile the singers were consulting as to
which should enter the arena first the an
nouncement was made that Robert Hughes
and Robert Davis had been awarded the
prizes for an essay on "The Beautiful and
Useful in Nature
After mature deliberation the San Fran
cisco contingent sang first. Oakland fol-
lowed and the judges announced that
though the reach of both was good, the
San Francisco altos were not always quite
true, and the expression of Oakland was
the best; therefore the prize went across
the bay. For a few moments after the
announcement it seemed as if the building
would be knocked down by the applause.
it was so tumultuous.
The rest of the proceedings consisted of
votes of thanks to the president, the
judges, singers and the ladies who had
prepared the tea.
The prizes ranged from so cents to $50
according TO the artistic value of the com
petition. In mum ber of cases the Judges
refused to award any prizes, when the
work was not up to the standard. On this
account there were no awards for quar-
tet singing, letter writing, etc. This
severity only added to the interest of the
proceedings. The Eisteddfod was an
nounced a thoroughly artistic as well as
financial success.

to make it their first duty to watch for
the sergeant's appearance
In one case recently a new sergeant
jumped on car and rode to n certain
point, returning on foot, and when he met
the officer he accused him of being off his
beat, as he had not seen him while walk
lug in the other direction. The officer
strenuously denied being off his beat and
the sergeant threatened to report bim.
The sergeant did not tell him that he had
been on a car and not on foot.
~ don't know what things are coming
to- said an old patrolman yesterday.
Time was when men had something else
to do than dodge the sergeant or keep
constant lookout for him, and they had
chance to watch suspicious characters at
night | remember, and it is not so long
ago either, that if | knew a thief was in
certain place not far from my beat and L
went after him and arrested him the SER
geant would compliment me for it. Now
a man dare not leave his beat, no matter
what may be going on in its vicinity,
otherwise he would be hauled up before
the commissioners.

REORGANIZING THE FORCE
Policemen Are Agitated Over
the Wedding Out of Lazy
Patrolmen.
Proposed Retirements of Old Men on
Pensions Are Also Causing
Discussion.

The question of which policemen shall
be relegated to the pension list at the next
session of the Pension Commission Mon
day next is being eagerly discussed by
patrolmen. 1t has also afforded a topic
for conversation among those members of
the department who know they have no
reason 70 fear retirement under this head.
The main cause for uneasiness through
out the older members of the force is the
new activity of sergeants in watching
patrols ali over the city. Nor is the un-
pleasant feeling confined to the men
eligible for retirement as pensioners, for it
is now fully understood by patrolmen that
the sergeants are not confining espionage
to that class alone, but TO every man on
duty. The reason given for such unpre-
cedented watchfulness is that a careful es-
t!mate of the patrolmen is being made by
the sergeants with view TO aseertaining
who are the indifferent or lazy officers
p art of the new programme to reorganize
tn police force OF San Francisco and to
place 1t on most efficient footing.
1t has been given out that the lazy Of
ficers, the patrolmen who did not appear
10 participate actively in carrying ont
rules of the department., and also those
who through indifference, or for other mo-
tives, permitted laws to be broken on their
respective BEATS or still others who failed
TO patrol beats conscientiously and with
an alert eye for thieves, burglars, etc., are
o be dropped from the roll.
So with this prospect the patrolmen feel
that thev are now undergoing crucial
test and wondering who may come out of
the trial victorious. They know we'll that
the object is to cut off large number of
the easv-going fellows who have been
drawing money from the treasury without
giving ample returns. Yet they have COM
plants to make, charging that the ser
geants are perhaps over-exacting.
Another case is that of two patrolmen
on Barbarv Coast. Their beats converge
at certain point, and few days ago
they were comparing notes when the new
sergeant suddenly appeared in front of
them. He reported them for violating
the rules OF the department by lettering
on their beats. There are so MANY.
thieves, pickpockets and bad people gen..
orally on the Barbary Coast that it has:
always been the custom for the policemen
to compare notes as 10 who had been seen:

There are othercases of similar nature,

the hearts OF the men and compel tn EN-

RESOLUTIONS AT MODESTO.

The Impartial Course of "Ths Call" Is
Warmly Indorsed.
A letter has been received from w. H.
Monroe, secretary of Modesto a P. A.
Council, transmitting a copy OF resolu-
tions passed by that organization. The
resolutions condemn Father Peter C.
Yorke for the position he has taken in the
controversy now in progress, and COM
mend the writings OF those who represent
the Protestant side of the discussion. The
discussion itself is approved on the GROUND
that 1t will cause the people to think of
these subjects. The resolutions say that
the members of Modesto Council, beliey-
ing in honest means and fair plav, appre-
ciate the just and impartial treatment
accorded to both sides of the controversy

credings. Congressman h. S. Thomas was
the president and his opening address, on
the festival, was applauded to the echo.
DIR. Jones was the leader of the evening.
The vocal solo competition for adults
stirred up great enthusiasm. There were
seven singers who tried for the prize, the
adludicators being the same as in the after
noon. Several of the vocalists distin-
guished themselves, and Miss Florence
Raymond being declared the best, partly
on account of her good phrasing, the prize
was awarded to her. The song she sang
was ''Asthore." In the competition for
recltlng, open to boys and girls under Is
years of age, prizes were awarded to Annie
Edwards, Annie Jones and Phoebe Jones.
John Williams and William Williams
were given the prizes for duet singing, as
their lntonation and expression were pro-
nounced better than those of the four other
competitors.
Professor Lloyd, the adjudicator of a
composition In the Welsh language on
Paul at Athens" spoke in the highest
terms of the work sent in, and he pro-
nounced the successful work a very mas
terly essay. When the pen-name of this
writer was read aloud it was with great
satisfaction that the audience and the
Judge found him to besthe genial secretary
OF the Eisteddfod, II. ]. LLOYD. All the
literary com petitions were conducted in
this anonymous way, and sometimes there
was overwhelming applause when the
owners of the pen-names were discovered
to be popular members of the community.
In response to call for addresses by the
bards D. Griffe read poem in Welsh,
wishing the Eisteddfod luck. John James
also read several stanzas which were much
relished, but no bard was found bold
enough to come forth and improvise as
the poets do at the Eisteddfods in Wales.
Professor Stevens of Salt Lake, being
called upon for an extempore address,
spoke of Music" and how much the
Eisteddfods foster that art. He also an
nounced that he intended shortly to bring
to San Francisco some OF the Welsh sing
ers who had performed at the Worlds
Fair.
The great competition of the day was
the choral one. 1t had been observed all
through the exercises that the great Jones
tribe of Oakland seemed to be bearing off
most of the spoils, and every one realized
that the great tug-ofwar would come
when the Oakland and San Francisco adult

IT Is A SURE GO
Syl Dixon Says His Mckinley Train is
Certainty.

Syl Dixon Of Argonia was in the city
yesterday talking with the Republi-
can county organization with reference
10 his great undertaking Of Republican
convention week. As is well known
Mr. Dixon is the originator Of the
scheme of sending a Mckinley wheat
train TO st. Louis in June. The train
will be started from this city and will
run in two sections of twenty cars each.
Both sections Will be gaily decorated
with the Mckinley colOrs and viii be re-
plete with the emblems of patriotism,
protection and prosperity. The forty
cars will represent forty Kansas coun-
ties and viii be made still more repre-
sentative in character by the addition
of an orator from each county who will
sing the praises of Kansas and AcKin-
ley all the way from Wichita to St
Louis. In addition to the orators Mr..
DiXon's idea is to carry band of mu-
sic with him also. He says that the
scheme is a sure go. He has made
arrangements with TWEEN ty-one counties
already and everybody is taking hold
on is quite jubilant over the success of
his idea. All the big eastern papers
have written editorials on the idea and
Mr.. Dixon has received hundreds of let
ters from Ohio concerning the matter.
The Ohio delegation will meet the train
when 1T reaches st. Louis and will ten

and his orators at Mckinley headquar-
ters in the exposition building. Syl
