Civil(3) Government for the Philip
pines.

Elihu Root, Secretary of War, by direction
of the President, last Saturday issued an or
der displacing military rule on and after July 4,
proximo, and substituting civil government.
By the order, Hon. William Fl, Taft, Presi-
dent Of the Philippine Commission, will be
President and the other commissioners will be
a sort of an advisory body. The civil govern
ment in all probability will very closely re-
semble the carpet-bag governments estab-
lished in Southern States after the close of
the war of 1876 A lot of thieving has been
done in the Philippines under military gov
eminent, aud the civil(2l government is not
likely to be any better.

Transferred

The Gazette states that Doctor J . Diaz Prieto, Mexican consul at Phoe- nix during the past two years, before that time filling the corresponding post at Corpus Christi, Texas, will go to Cincinnati, Ohio, next month, to establish at that place consulate for Mexico. Dr. Prieto is we'll known in this part of the country, in both Arizona and Sonora, and his many friends will be pleased to learn of his advancement.
 The Gazette says: "In 1882 Dr. PrIeto was appointed consul from Mexico to Tombstone and he served until 1886 whenshe was transferred to Los angeles. The doctor then served until 1886 when he was sent to Corpus Christi, He remained at that place until 1899 when he was transferred to Phoenix where he has been ever since. In all the above places Dr. Prieto established consulates aud his work has been thorough. His experience has peculiarly fitted him for the work that is before him at Cincinnati"

 Breathitt X Manning will have charge of the town site, the rent office the water works, the electric light, plant and all the incidentals of the municipality.
 It is probable that MT. Russell Man ming will alternate with Col. Breathitt occasionally at Cacanea, but between them the firm will look out for the new town.

Ho. For Guaymas.

The Colorado Base Ball Club is daily practicing for the first of a series of games with various clubs in Sonora. which will take place next Sunday, November 24th, at Guaymas, with a nine in that city. A large crowd will go down with the Colorado nine, leaving La Col prada by the regular train in the morning, but returning by a special train at night. A great time is anticipated Joe Polin has invented club yell for the nine, and they intend practicing 1t all the way to Guaymas. For chief rooter the crowd are divided between the merits of Jack Brennan and those of Bill Matthews. Each has a voice of wonderful power and compass. That of Matthews walls like a fog horn with belly ache, and when raised in derision always carries consternation into the ranks of the opposing nine. Brennan S has not so prolonged and sustained roar, but its staccato effects are startling, and when set up just as an oppos- ing player strikes at ball 1t sends such shiver up and down his spinal column that his bat and the ball don't speak as they pass by" Together they are irresistible, and if the Colorado nine don't win out it will not be for lack of responsible and artistic roofing.
 Following is the list of players going down from La Colorado:
 ]. P. Polin, catcher
 Frank Lesher. pitcher
 Ed. Powell, Ist base
 w. MacGuiie, 2d base
 Al. Rosenstock. 3d base
 ]. Dimas, short stop
 w. Drewin, right field

A big hoist is to be put on the shaft, and a building for the same and a gallows frame is now in course of construction.
 The Hermosillo brewery lCerve- ceria de Sonora have commenced work this week upon extensive additions to their buildings and plant which when completed, will make it one of the largest, if not the largest, on the Pacific Coast of North America. The small build ing now in use as an office will be torn down, and upon the site will be erected a three-story brick structure 32x75 feet in ground dimensions, which will be used as a stock building. This will join on the main building five stories in height, which was completed some months ago. Upon the other side of the main building, and joining upon 1t will be erected an office building o. brick and stone 35x5o feet on the ground plan, three stories in height. The completion of the two buildings, joined to the main building will make a front covering the entire side of a block. From the offi,e building another structure will extend to the back corner of the block, which will be two stories in height and 75x15o feet ground dimensions, and will include the bottling department. Taken with the other buildings al- ready standing these buildings will quite enclose the block.
