II should be every ones care. Life is a

caused so many a breakdown in the ruce.

lucessant dull headache aggravated by

heartburn, acid eructations, coated tongue,
bad taste in the mouth, nervousness, mental
depression, sleeplessness; these are only a
few OF the symptoms of a weak stomach
and an enfeebled condition of the digestive

symptoms will be experienced at once, but
any one of them means danger.

The Rough Riders had a great tim
at their first annual reunion at Las
Vegas last Saturday, Sunday, ana
Monday. The fun commenced Satur-
day afternoon, when Governor Roose-
velt, as he is known in New York.
Colonel Teddy, as be is called by the
Rough Riders, arrived. He went Il
to the camp where a tent had been
prepared for him, and took the same
fare as the boys had. There was a
business meeting of the Rough Riders
association, at which the colonel
was elected honorary president for
life. Gov. Otero, Who did so much
towards recruiting the regiment, was
elected an honorary member of the
association, after which the bylaws Of
the association we're changed so that

Uzzel of Denver preached. His dis
course was said to have been one of
the most eloquent ever heard in
New Mexico. Sunday afternoon there
was a dress parade of the Rough
Riders, some two hundred being in
line, reviewed by Colonel Roosevelt,
Governor Otero, Governor MLrphey,
Of Arizona, and Ex-Governor Adams,
who represented Governor Thomas of
Colorado. AT the conclusion of the
parade A. A. Jones of Las Vegas On
behalf of the citizens of the territory
presented Colonel Roosevelt with a
magnificent gold badge, with a large
diamond in the center, which greatly
pleased and surprised the colonel.
Colonel Roosevelt left Sunday night
for New York, having most important
business there which demanded his
immediate attention. Monday was
devoted to sports and games, horse
racing, riding bucking b%ronchoes and
all sorts of fun. The people of Las
Vegas proved themselves to be magni-
icent hosts, and were ably helped by
the people of the north part of the
territory. Some ten %thousanes dollars
were expended in entertaining their
guests and no one could suggest a
thing which was not provided. The
next reunion will be al Oklahoma
City, next year.

the managers of the Burns fight realize
that not only are the prospec~s OF Dan for
success very remote, but they are also
aware that as time progresses these pros
poets grow more dim. The result is that
a call has gone forth over the State for
every railroad politician, whether he Ee
Democrat or Republican, makes no differ
ence, to come to Sacramento. The only
question is as to whether or not he is n
a position to influence one vote or more
for the man from Mexico. They are flock
ing in by every train, and If the influx
continues by Saturday night there will be
an aggregation Of talent here such as Sac
ramento has never seen before.
Among those arriving last evening was
Harvey Lindley, the repudiated Repub-
lican boss of Southern California. Mr..
Lindley went at once to the Golden Eagle
and proceeded to the star-chamber head
quarters of Colonel Dan. there to remain
closeted for some time. When Harvey
came forth he was questioned by a Call
representative and said: mo, I an going
to take no part in the Senatorial fight. I
am here to look on. You ask am 1 for
Colonel Burns Well, now, you can just
put 1t down that l am not against him. y
Further than this Lindley was very reti-
cent and close-mouthed. He will be one
of Burns right-hand men to the end of
the fight.

CALL HEADQUARTERS, .SACRA-
MENTO, Jan. Sd. NJ. Burns is still
a candidate for United States Senator
but his candidacy no longer has the air
of prosperity that characterized it at
the preliminary gathering of the clans
last Sunday.
The exact nature of the malady that
has oyertaken the Burns boom and
prostreted it VIII not admit Of imna-
date diagnosis. but that the complaint
bids fair to bear fatal results there can
be no doubt. The small army Of politi-
cal tricksters, job chasers and touts
that has heretofore served to mark the
presence of the railroad candidate in
any particular locality has been scat
tered by the premonitory symptoms of
coming disaster and they are now to be
found only after due and diligent
search.
Shorn of their arrogance they now
appear as they really are, A LOT OF
RANK POLITICAL WEEDS that are
shriveling up in anticipation of the
cold wave that is beginning to make

itself felt to even the most case-hard-
ened of the tricky crew.
The few among Burns followers who
are numbered among the respectable
members of society profess to be still
as confident of ultimate success as they
were when w F. Herrin launched the
Burns boom four weeks ago. Having
become committed to their present po-
sition by reason of personal friendship
or mistaken party fealty they still cling
to the belief that they cannot be wrong,
and that majority of the members of
the present Legislature and the com
munity at large will not continue to
repudiate the man whose past record
reeks of the proceedings of the crimi-
nal courts of two republics and who has
suffered Imprisonment on the charge of
having robbed the people he now asks
to honor him.
So long as w. F. Herrin was respon-
sible for the information that Burns
had entered the race for the Senator
ship there We're many who still ex-
pressed a kindly feeling for him, be-
cause of their belief that Herrin was
not acting as Burns mouthpiece. BY
such expressions they gained for them
selves the reputation of being Burns

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Jan. 3.-There will never be a
circumstance arise nor a condition ex-
ist whereby Colonel D. M. Burns will
secure any votes from the Los Angeles
County delegation for United States
Senator if the statements made by the
members themselves are to be given
credenoe, and there is every reason why
they should.
The members of the delegation were
very indignant to-day at the charge
made in the Chronicle that the candi-
dacy of Senator Bulla was merely a
"stall' for D. NJ. Burns and the railroad
company
Messrs. Valentine, Conrey and Mel
lex were not at all slow in expressing
themselves in very vigorous English
Senator Simpson also placed himself
squarely on record. All of these gen
tlemen state that at no time will their
votes be at the disposal of Burns. Mr..
Melick stated that he had been ap-
preached by some of the Burns follow
ing and sounded, but he was the only
member of the delegation who made the
admission.
denied any rumors of combinations
upon the part of himself or his support
ers He furnished The Call with the fol-
lowing signed statement:
II have said so frequently that
have made no combination or compro-
mise with any other candidate for Sen
ator that it does seem to me unneces-
sary to repeat it at this time. How
ever, 1 again say as forcibly as Ian
guage can express it that l have no
understanding or agreement with
Colonel Burns or any other candidate
or anybody representing them. 1 have
had no conversation whatever with any
other candidate looking toward an
agreement or understanding as to the
disposition of our respective votes when
the breakup comes.

OF Burns the votes Of those Democratic
Assemblymen would be forthcoming.
One point is assured and that is this:
If Colonel Mazuma should influence the
votes of a few Democratic Assemblymen
and secure them for some unclean Re-
publican, there are other Democratic As
semblymen who stand ready to immedi-
ate1y counteract the effect of those votes
by casting their own for the Republican
candidate for Senator whose chances Of
success were lessened by the casting of
the purchased Democratic votes for his
opponent.
AT the caucus of the. Democratic men,
bers of the Assembly the question came
up as to whether or not in any contin-
gency "a Democratic Assemblyman should
ever cast his vote for a Republican can
didate for Senator.
The question was very generously de-
bated and there was considerable differ
ence of opinion. Some thought that in
the event it was necessary for the DEM
ocratic Assemblymen to cast their votes
to break deadlock, or to elect a Repub-
tionable to the people Of the State, they
should do so.
There were others who were of the
opinion that the Democratic Assembly
men should give the complimentary vote
to a Democrat from the first ballot to the
last.
The discussion got rather warm. and As
semblyman Mead finally stepped in and
poured oil on the troubled waters. He
suggested that it would be well enough
for the caucus to bridge the difficulty
when it was. reached. Inasmuch as the
conditions stated did not yet exist, he
would advise that the matter be left open.
This proposition was agreed to. Mr..
Mead also advised his colleagues not to
submit to INTERVIEWS as to whether, in
certain contingencies, they would support
this or that Republican candidate for
Senator, for the reason that if some Re
publican, good and clean, were to get
stxty-one Republican votes without diff
Guilty, the Democratic Assemblyman who
had stated that he was going to vote for
some other Republican would be placed
in a most embarrassing position.

Part Of the State

structing the legislative nominees from
that county to vote for myself 1 am
constantly receiving letters from my
constituents to the effect that public

What I have said with reference
to other candidates for Senator applies
with equal force and truthfulness to
the Southern Pacific Railroad, the
Santa Fe Railroad or any other cor

1T has been alleged that men who
are friendly to the railroad company

to be considered the choice Of the rail-
road company because of any such al

may be subject to the same criticism.
Il most emphatically deny that I
have been approached at any time, or
in any manner, by any one known to
me to be connected with or authorized
to represent the Southern Pacific Com

the support of that company in return
for any consideration that 1 might
show them if elected to the high office
