Gov. otero seeklnr aeappoIntment.

Gov. NJ. A. otero. 5f New Mexico. who
arrived at the shoreham yesterday. ac-
companied by his wife and son, was es-
teemed highly by the late President Nc
Kinley. and between the two existed
bonds Of close personal friendship. The
young and handsome Territorial Chief Ex-
ecutive is OF Spanish blood on his IA
ther's side though his mother was n ma
tive OF South Carolina. His father, long
n Delegate in Congress. was a stanch
Democrat, but the son grew up with a
leaning TO the Republicans. and 1t is
largely due to his influence that New
Mexico is today a Republican Territory.
A faction OF that party is here in Wash
ington strongly opposing the reappoint-
ment of Governor otero to his present
Office. The latter's friends are also on
the ground, and, being men of high
standing and influence, 1t Is believed that
thei7 endorsements will nullify the Efforts
of the Governors opponents.

ion comedies with the popular verdict,
which is, that the only laborers worth
having are the Chinese. The Japs who
have migrated to uS, are as worthless and
unreliable lot IS could be found. They
have sworn an eternal feud with manual
labor, and won't work at any price. The
Porto Ricans are equally as inefficient

BRITISH ROAD GETS
YANKEE engines

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-The American
railway locomotive won substantial
victory today when an order was tele-
graphed to one of the big manufactures
for twenty passenger engines to be used
on the Northeastern Railway of En-
gland. The order was given by Will
son Wordsell general superintendent of
the company. just prior to his leaving
Chicago on the Pennsylvania limited
Mr.. Wordsell was one of q party Of
English railway officials that are max
ing a tour of the East and Middle West
for the purpose of inspecting the ter
minals and facilities of the great Amer
lean systems of railways. The party,
minus Mr.. Wordsell, left for Pittsburg
several days ago, the superintendent
being unable to accompany them, owing
to illness.
Mr.. Wordsell's order makes II patent
that he has become convinced that the
American locomotive is a superior arti-
Gle to the British engine. Thus far no
locomotive of American manufacture
has been used on the Northeastern road,
but 1t Is Mr.. Wordsell's purpose to sup
plant all of his present power with
locomotives manufactured in this coun-
try. The locomotives ordered by Mr..
Wordsell will cost about 100000. They
are the same type as those that draw
the Pennsylvania limited.

The disease as was previously declar-
ed is known as "sorehead" and in a long
typewriter letter received from the
Washington bureau numerous remedies
are suggested for It, The disease is one
of fungus origin and known also as
| 'chicken-p oX" and is prevalent In many
countries. The best means for its pre-
vention Is to keep the chicken yards
clean. The disease spreads rapidly and
Is highly contagious. pigeons also be-
| ing subject to communication.
| Among the numerous remedies sug-
Eested by the department the simplesi
Is the use of copper sulphate sulphur
| ointment, carbolic salve, and tincture
| of iodine. The last named remedy Is
however quite severe. In each case tn,
skin of the chicken must be broken be
fore 1t can be successfully inoculated
