TALK AS TO RAILROAD COM
MIssIONERS,

Gov. Jones gave further audience
Yesterday to a number of citizens
who are either candidates for rail-
road commissioners or who have
friends willing to serve on he com
mission. No definite anpounce"
ment could be made as to when the
appointments would be aungunced,
but the indications are that It will
be early next week before the selec-
tions are made public. 1t is not
necessary to max a visit to the
gubernatorial office to ascertain
that while one or two mentonaoles
have declined to permit theHuse OF
their names because the salary OF
50, 800 is insufficient, there is yet a
goodly list of patriots who are
willing to serve the state at the
stipulated figures.
One of the days rumors, which
did not seem to have very reliable
source, was that the governor s
private secretary, Mr.. Arthur Neil,
would be appointed on the commits
sion. Mr.. Neil put a quietus on
the rumor by saying that he was not
an applicant and did not propose to
be one. Circuit Judge Grant
Green is regarded as one of the
strongest candidates from the First
and Sixth congressional districts.
He is said to be the first one to file
an application for a commission
ship. The friends of ex-State
Treasurer Ransom Gulley are work
ing like Beavers to promote his
chances. ~.
The elimination of Judge Mccain,
of his own volition, as a 'f{ctor in
the make. up of the commission has
spurled the friends of Judge L, G.
Bulch of Little Rock into new ac-
tivity in his behalf.
Meanwhile the situation ir refer
ence to the Second and Third con-
gressional districts remain problem
atical as ever. The friends of
Judge HALEY of Desha were much
encouraged yesterday, though some
of the apparent know-alls were in
dulging strongly in Handy stock

The IdahOS at Santa Anna.

Brigadier General Charles King. who
was i'll command Of the brigade at the
battle of Santa Ana, in which the
Idaho regiment won undying fame, has
written very interesting series of
articles on hcoric incidents of the war in
in the Philippines, which has been pub
lishe.l by the Mcclure company. The
following is taken from General Kings
story of the Santa Anna fight:
Just as the center of the idahos reach

greeted by sudden and furious volley
that staggered them. In an instant No

the brave old fellow realized that he had
but an hour or two To live. | never saw
him again. The order he received from
my lips on the Santa Anna road was his
last and to the letter had he striven to
obey it.
Five insurgents lay dead about the
Krupps in the middle redoubt, where,
side by side, California and Idaho leaped
i'll to the capture. and dozen lay strewn
over the field i'll front of where the
honored old major fell. The big redoubt

they raised the white flag and then shot
dead the first soldier to reach the work.
The roar of musketry was resumed for
three minutes and followed by scattering
shots as the fugitives ran for the stream,
but there was a smile on McConyille's $
grizzled face as they bore him of the
field.
