The Surveyor Generals
Christmas Present.

Surveyor General Hugh H. Price
was presented with q handsome desk
and chair "a q Christmas gift by the
employees In his Office here.
At 4 O'Clock ON the day before
Christmas MIR. rrice was gathering up
his papers preparatory TO leaving for
Phoenix that night to spend Christ
mas. when one of the employees asked
him to remain q few minutes. Mr.
Price replied IN a joking way that he
might take orders from the President
Of the United states and from the
Secretary of the interior and q few
others In authority but he hardly
felt that he could receive them from an
attache Of the once here. He was then
told that a Christmas remembrance
would soon arrive and mat they de-
sired him to remain.
The desk is a beautiful one OF OAK
with polished top, lne handsomes'
that could be obtained In Tucson. The
chair is a handsome and comfortable
one which matches the desk. Mr.. Price
was not only delighted but very much
surprised at being remembered 90

the short time that he has been here.
Mr.. Price has won the respect and es-
TEEN of every member OF his force
and they were only too glad In tnis
way 10 be able to show some ap-
probation of his interest In them.

WASHfNG1 ON. Dec. 27.-The selec-
ton by President Roosevelt of Henry
C. Payne. of Wisconsin, to succeed
Charles Emory Smith as Postmaster
General, while regarded. as primarily
important because of its political bear
ing, is believed to have some signif-
canoe In connection with the project
for the Government ownership of the
telegraph lines of the country.
1t Is understood here that Mr.
Payne favors Government ownership
of the telegraph lines and their opera
ton in connection with the Post-Oftice
Department In his new position he
will have an opportunity to develop
this proposition.
During the past summer. 1t is said
the Mckinley Administration caused
inquiries to be made among the largest
stockholders of both the Western
Union and Postal Companies as to
their willingness to sea- out and the
price at which it would be possible to
obtain their properties.
Nearly all the Democrats and many
Republicans favor Government owner

CAMDEN. NJ. Dec. 27.-United States
Senator VIM, j. Sewell, died al his home
here at 9 40 a. m. today.
VIM. j. Sewell was a native OF the
Province Of Connaught in Ireland and
came to this country when young man.
He early identified himself with railroad
operations and was connected with the

century.

out OF the civil war and rose to the rank
OF Brigadier General. He commanded

He entered politics after the war and
became leader of the Republican par

senate in the early seventies and served
one term.
When he finished his senatorial term
he became the Legislative representative
Of the Pennsylvania Railroad at the New
Jersey State Capital.

sonal and political friend of Sewell, be-
came President, Sewell was given con-

couple, but according to report, Mrs
Wolcott demanded too much of sur
render on the part of her former hus-
band and the effort failed. IL is now
said that mutual friends are still AT
work with Mrs. Wolcott and there are
hopes for an eventual settlement.
The President is very anxious to have
Wolcott in his official family. as mGCh
for his own sake as for Wolcotts. The
former Colorado Senator is also eager
to re-enter public life as he is heartily
tired OF being the leader OF minority
In Colorado where he has lost much
of his former popularity. Mr.. Hitch
cock, the present head of the Interior
Department has no political standing
in his home State of Missouri He was
selected because he was a long time
personal friend OF Mckinley.
The president, according to reliable
reports does not like some revelations
regarding the character and antece-
dents of Henry c, Payne, that have
been made public since IL became
known that ne was to be made Post
master General A friend of the Presi-
dent Is responsible for the statement
that Mr. Roosevelt said in the pre-
sence of four men few days ago, that
Ii 1t could be proved to him that
Payne was at any time paIu LOBBY
ist at Washington, he would cancel his
request to him to take the post Office
portfolio.
The Presiden. asked Senator ALI
son Of Iowa 10 take the treasury De-
partment and he declined, but sug-
gested Governor Shaw of his State as
q well qualified man for the place. AS
Shaw had Deen doomed by the Iowa
Republicans for President, Mr.. Roose-
yelt no doubt thought that he would
be useful man to be In the Cabinet
where no booms are allowed SO long
as the President is candidate. Gov.
Shaw is not we'll known in ~asl..lg-
ton but the Iowa man say he is man
who will make his mark in the Trea-
sury Department.
This is the third time Senator ALI
son declined the Secretaryship Of the
Treasury He was offered that Cabinet
portfolio. and urged earnestly to ac-
cept 1t by Presidents Harrison, Nc
Kinley and Roosevelt.
1t is reasonably certain that Long
would have gone long ago but for the
Schley incident Roosevelt and --ong

dent does not want 10 let him out un-
der fire.

Ownership by the Government

ship. Several bills looking to this end
will ne introduced after the holiday
recess. One has already been present
ed by Representative jackson. of
Kansas This provides for commits
sion to appraise the value of the tele-
graph companies for purchase by the
Government Mr.. Jackson thinks Con-
gress will take some action at this ses-
sion. He says he has been surprised
at the extent of the sentiment that ex-
lists in Congress in favor OF Govern
ment ownership.
From the political standpoint the
selection of Mr. Payne is regarded as
the first important step taken by
Presiuent Roosevelt looking to his
nomination in 1904 The value OF Mr..
Payne as an organizer and political!
adviser could hardly be over-estimated
His long service as the right-hand
man Of Senator Hanna entlCles him to
recognition as being in the front rank
of party managers. Through his in
fiuence all the power of the Republi-
can machine could be utilized in the
interest of Mr.. Roosevelt.

Smuggling on the Border
Rather Difficult to Garry On.

The coming preliminary trial Of
Paymaster Robinson. who is charged
with smuggling at Nogales, is LIE sub
ject OF conversation and comment
among the railroad men in the city.
MIR. Robinson will have a hearing be-
fore the United States Commissioner
at Nogales on January 9th, on the
charge of smuggling twenty-three
boxes of cigars. The prevailing op-
inion among railroad men is that the
same course will be pursued as was
done with a Wells Fargo messenger
at the last term of court All seem to
think that he will be held, an
whether or not he pleads guilty, he
will ultimately be compelled to pay a
heavy fine as in his case the ofense
is greater man the one committed by
the Wells Fargo messenger who was
only charged with smuggling one box
of cigars.
The smuggling along the border by
railroad employees Is receiving unusual
attention from the Government Off
cials just now and IL is said that some
stringent measures will he taken to

prove of no avail. To those, who are
accustomed to cross the border fire.
quently, it is very apparent that
smuggling always exists to some ex-
tent at every port of entry. There is
probably not a tourist who crosses the
line, who does not smuggle something
on his return. However II this was the
worst of it. the matter would not be
so serious for these are not the people
that the Government officials are after.
They only carry small articles of wear
ing apparel or curios across the line
each way and lne loss in customs
from this sort of smuggling is COM
paratively insignificant.

tom house officers and inspectors have
to face. is the continual smuggling
carried on by railroad men and others
who are constantly crossing and re-
crossing the line and are able to dis
pose OF their goods some distance
from the frontier. The United States
suffer more from this sort OF thing
than the Government of Mexico uoes.
The officials of the Treasury Depart
ment at Washington are taking a
serious view of the matter and recently
secured the conviction of a railroad
engineer. who had been carrying on
this practice for years and shipping
his goods to merchants in the East
making a good profit out of the Uusi-
ness. Their attitude in this case makes
1t seem probable that ,hey will do
everything IN their power to convict
Paymaster Robinson. who is a proml-
nent railroad man and whose convic-
tion would serve as a lesson to all
smugglers.
The detection OF MIR. Robinson at
Nogales was considered a clever piece
of work by custom officials there. 1t
is always difficult TO catch lnose en-
gagged in contraband trade. Both the
Mexican and American governments
believe that smuggling is carried on
in the Pullman cars. where goods are
easily concealed. 1t is not believed. of
course that the officials of the Pull
man company know anything of this
practice nor the conductor or porter
may not even he aware Of ii in many
cases. but it is known that this contra
band trade is carried on to some eX-
tent at least. Just now special atten-
tion is being payed to the searching OF
Pullman ears and in fact every thing
is being done to prevent smuggling by
means OF the railroads or railroad
men.

Mr.. ROOSfVfLTS CABINET
Is Undergoing a Pretty General
Reconstruction.
The Divorce Case of Wolcott of Colorado is
Annoying.--Allison Thrice Declined to be
Secretary of the Treasury.

WASHINGTON, d. c. Dec. 81
The Cabinet met as usual today but
no business was transacted.
The most positive denials were
given the story published today that
F. d. Coburn, Secretary Of the State
Board of agriculture of Kansas, was
to succeed Secretary Wilson. The
President Is anxious that Secretary
W ilson should remain Secretary and
he had informed the President he
would be glad to so do.
Notwithstanding these statements
there is growing belief that within a
very short time none of the Mckinley
Cabinet will be In service with Roose-
welt with the possible exception OF
Root and Knox.
1t is said that the President earnest
ly desires that Root should continue,
who Is from his own State ana has
long been his political and personal
friend. 1t is regarded as probable that
when the time comes for Secretary
Hay to retire, Root will take his place
at the head of the State Department
1t Is known that the President has a
high admiration for Governor A4.. OF
the Philippines, who is now on his way
home. and 1t is not considered improb-
able that Taft wIil succeed Hay in the
State Department.
Attorney General Knox will be apt
to serve out the Roosevelt term. He
enjoys the confidence of the great in
dustrial interests and his presence In
the Cabinet Is regarded as security
that no hurtful action will be taken Dy
the administration regarding trusts or
great corporate interests. Besides Mr.
Knox is personally very much liked by
the President
Mr. Roosevelt Is very desirous of ap-
pointing his personal and pouticai
