"The Republican gubernatorial claim
ant viii this morning ask Judge Walter
Evans to issue a writ Of injunction re-
straining William Goebel from acting
as governor.
This course was decided upon here
early this morning, at a conference Of
Republican attorneys called to consid-
er what line Of action to adopt
William o. Bradley whom Gov.
Taylor succeeded as governor Will
probably lead in the argument before
Judge Evans for the desired writ.
1T is expected that the petition for
the writ will contain these chief points:
"Flrst-That Gov. Taylor undoubtedly
had the majority Of votes at the late
election. and that political opponents
officially called upon 10 pass upon said
election have so decided
second-That any attempt OF the
Democratic Legislature TO unseat him
is usurpatlon Of power, and unconsu-
f, tutionaL
"Third--That the declaration for Mr.
Goebe made by the Democratic legls-
lature IS void, as he Taylor had ad-
tuurned the legislature until next
Tuesday, and any legislation IN the in
term Is illegal
"Fourth-That he had the power so 10
adjourn the legislature. as he deemed
an insurection existed, and he alone,
as governor was the judge Of said in
surrectiOn.'

affairs In this State are bordering upon

the crisis is al hand
The clash OF today came when an
officer OF the circuit court Of Franklin
county was arrested by the military
while attempting TO serve notice OF
legal proceeding upon Gov. Taylor The
clash Of tomorrow may come when the
officers Of that court attempt 10 enforce
the ruling OF its presiding judge.
Behind this judge the Democrats Will
have tomorrow, for the first time, an

Of Acting Gov. Beckham, and. from the
Democratic standpoint, a regularly ap-
pointed 0djutant general whose or
ders the troops now encamped around
the capitol building are bound TO obey.

will have the power TO organize MILL

from the reproach Of incGpaclty In the
management Ia the administrative de-
tails. The opposition press has persist
ed for weeks In exaggerating tbe re-
sources OF the Dutch and minimizing
the British strength. whereas the Boer
army has already passed It's maximum
point and Is declining and wearing
away, while the British reinforcements
are steadily arriving. The truth is now
known that the British force Is more
than double that Of the Dutch and SUI
periOr to IL IN number Of guns. Public
opinion has been greatly inyigorated by
this practical evidence Of the efficiency
Of the mobilization scheme and The en-
ergy Of the administrative services.
The most sensational episode OF last
nights debate In the commons was
Sir Edward Clarkes proposal that Lord
Salisbury should take charge OF the
colonial Office and that Lord Rosebery
should be sent 10 the Cape as substi-
tate for Sir Alfred Miner. IL was
received with jeers by the ministerial
party and the Irish members hardly
knew whether TO express approval or
condemnation. for Lord Rosebery is not
their candidate for any Office, angry as
they may be with MIR. Chamberlain.
The first batch OF wounded belonging
to the naval contlngents serving In
South Africa has arrived In England.
They are mostly skilled gunnefs. They
say that the Boer MISUNDERSTANDING
one-pound, quick-6ring guns have a
most demorahzing effect on the British.
These guns are made In England, but
they are not supplied TO the British
troops.
A dispatch to a London paper from
Pietermartzburg says:
The appearance Of the flying column
OF scouts In Zululand has created some
uneasiness among the Beers over the
border. a number Of Beers have been
hurriedly withdrawn from Ladysmlth
and Dundee and Vryheid to protect that
place and oppose any British advance.
The Boer force there Is about 1000
strong, with three guns.
