THE MEXICAN QUESTION:!

Apropos of that Mexican
meeting in the cockpit, it should
be understood in the first place
that the same was not a meeting
of Mexican to express their in
dignatiOn at the act of two attOr-
neys before a court asking for
the application of a law of the
United States, in a case, brought
by a Mexican alien, but the
whole affair was instituted and
carried out by a renegade POpu-
list; himself a foreigner, for the
purpose of spite against the law
yers.
This renegade has made these
Mexicans believe and charge
that Evans and McMinn institut-
ed the proceeding to disfranchise
the Mexicans in Texas. This is
an unblushing falsehoOd, for the
truth is, the Mexicans brought
the proceedings to get his final
naturalization papers.
The low down methods employ
ed in Western Texas by certain
dirty politicians to control or in
fuence the Mexican vote is to be
utterly despised by all honest
men. One of those methods is
as follows:
At the last Federal court in
San Antonio a Mexican alien
presented himself before the
court and asked for his final nat
uralizatiOn papers; and thereup-
on two attorneys of the court OBJ
jected on the grounds that the
applicant did not come within
Art. 2961, United States statute,
which reads:
THE provisions of this title
Naturalization shall apply to al
lens. being free white persons,
and to aliens of Africans nativ-
ity, and to persons of African de-
cent"
The point is vet before court,
and that is, is the applicant a
free white person." in other
words, is he a Caucasian. If
Judge MaXey says he is of the
Caucasian or white race he will
be made a citizen, if not he will
be refused citizenship, and he is
the only person intrusted. Now
these low dirty creatures are run
ming over the county squading
among the Mexicans.

TROUBLE IN CAMP.
General and Majors wife at Swords

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 10.-The
feud at Preside between Gen. Graham
co1nmandant of the post and Maj.
John Darling and his wife Is the talk
of the town and garrison. Hitherto the
feud has been carried on privately,
but incidents which occurred at the
marriage Of Mrs. Darling's daughter,
Miss Jennie Catherwood. to DR.. Morton
Grinnell, of New York, brought the
"unpleasantness'' to a. crisis and re-
suited in instant publicity.
Mrs. Darling forgot her caution and
referred to Gen. Graham as that
thing and that BRUTE and did not
hesitate to tell how he had, as she al
legged, used his power and position to
harass and humiliate her husband.
Major Darling, who Is wise soldier,
had nothing to say
The trouble between the families be-
gan about six months ago, when the
major was ordered to appear before
a board of inspection in Chicago, ILL.,,
for examination on grounds Of disabil-
ity He appeared before the board at
that time, but an adjournment was
taken by the inspectors to Friday of
last week at the Preside. Upon that day
the major was again ready to show
that he was physically sound, but the
board did not meet.
Maj. Darling and his wife have been
trying TO ma out ever since last June
who reported the major for disability
They say that they suspect Gen. Ora
ham, but he has denied the charge
Maj. Darling has only few years to
serve before he must retire on account

attain the age limit in two years. Now
| it seems that each Is resolved to re-
main in the service as long as possible.
| Friends of Maj. Darling say he has
! been the victor In a contest with Gen.
| Graham, for the major has made ar
rangements for transfer to the Third
artillery, which has been ordered here.
He will not have to leave the Preside,

ABOUT AN ENGINE.

Difference of Opinion as to Its Size.
The Commissioners this afternoon heard
arguments involving the right of B. F. T.
Bell to maintain and operate a steam en-
gine in connection with wood and coal
yard at 1922 B street southwest. The hear
Ing was the result Of a petition filed by
Mrs. s. X. Pettingale, asking the permit
granted Mr.. Bell be revoked, and Messrs
Frailey and Thompson, who. represented
the petitioner, read several affidavits and
letters In relation to the matter, setting
forth that Mrs. Pettingale is the owner of
property adjoining that Of Mr.. Bell, and
that the engine referred to is a continuous
annoyance to her.
Among other things 1t was said that the
permit granted Mr.. Bell was for a coal,
wood and lumber yard, and that 1t was
altered by the insertion of words to pro-
vide for a steam boiler and engine. The
noise, pulsation and smoke from the en-
CINE, 1t was claimed, greatly affects Mrs.
Pettingale. having caused a nervous ILL
ness. The attorneys for the petitioner fur
ther stated that several of the signatures
attached to the application for the permit
were secured under misapprehension of
the alleged true facts in the case
Attorney H. B. Moulton, who appeared
for Mr.. Bell, denied that the engine is a
source of annoyance. 1t furnishes power
for small scroll saw, he says. such as is
ordinarily propelled by foot power. 1t is SO
small as to be almost a toy engine, de-
clared the attorney, and, he added, the al
teration in the permit, mentioned In the
foregoing. was made in the Office Of the
building inspector. Affldayits were read in
behalf of Mr.. Bell. and the Commissioners
took the matter under consideration.
The difficulty was aired several weeks
ago before justice Of the peace, in a suit
for damages filed against Mr.. Bell by Mrs
Pettingale.
