The leaders in the TOW within the democratic party of Arizona over the
 nomination for dele THE gate in congress have WARRING succeeded very we'll so DEMOCRATS. far. in maintaining an
 appearance of civility toward each other, and have been able to keep signs of bitterness from com ing to the surface to a large extent, but the struggle is rapidly taking or such an acute phase that the factional war will soon break cut all over the territory The democratic papers in Graham county are already in a rabiG controversy over the respective merits of Mark Smith, Charles Shannon, and General J. F. Wilson. It has been generally assumed that there was some sort of an understanding between Smith and Shannon, but if so it is such an understanding that may be ruD- tured readily by revised and conflict ing ideas Of the principals. Smith s great fight for statehood has practfc-
 
 ton, regardless Of any understandings heretofore had. His friends are every where insisting that he is entitled to the nomination by all considerations of fairness. If Shannon persists in his candidacy it must be in the face of q strong Smith sentiment in the verE faction which he hopes to controI-it is impossible for him to make any serious inroads in the "old guard which is demanding the nomination of Wilson.
 Shannon appears to realize that he has no personal strength of conse- quence. and he is evidently relying upon battering down all opposition by acquiring control Of democratic news papers He already is reputed to con- trol the Citizen at Tucson. the Enter prise at Phoenix, and sheets at Yuma and other points. by virtue of putting up for regular financial deficits. and proposes to carry the fight into Will sons home county by acquiring the ownership of the Journal-Miner. an evening daily at Prescott. according to reports now current.
 Like many other amateurs at the game of politics. MT. shannon makes the mistake of attaching undue i'm portance to the influence of personal organs in building up political strength But the experience or hundreds of other shipwreched politicians will not. of course, restrain him from following the beaten path. Politicians of this class seem wholly unable to realize that the moment it is known a paper is subsidized it's opinions have no value with the public. Moreover, MT. Shan non on account Of his inexperience has suffered himself to be badly hanui- capped by the people he has called around him. PurporIing to be respect able himself, he has permitted his papers to drop to a low level in the dis -cussion of all territorial and national affairs, and so disreputabIe have these

MILL FOR OBERLIN.
Company Incorporated to Erect a Big
Plant.

Oberlin, Jan. 13.-A special train over
the B. & M road with eight cars of cat
tie and hogs for Kansas City left here
Sunday morning The train was made
up of four cars of cattle owned by John
GrossnickIaus, their average weight be-
ing about /, 1000 pounds, fattened on al
falfa and Kaffir corn. Otis Benton and
Waite Waldo each had two car loads
of hogs. The continued pleasant wealth
er is having a desirable effect on the
several thousand head of cattle feeding
in Decatur county this winter.
The three or four inches of snow which
fell in Decatur county a week or ten
days ago proved fruitful to the large
acreage of wheat, which is in better con-
dition than it is east of this county.
One seldom hears of a scarcity of mOis-
ture in Decatur county, and the wheat
raisers express their opinion that wheat
is in fine condition

PANAMA AGENT HEARD.
Says His Company Can "DeIiver
the Goods"

Washington, Jan. 13..-M. Edouarl
Lampre, representing the Panama Ca
nal company appeared before the sem
ate committee on interoceanic canals
today in obedience to the summons of
that committee to testify concerning
the affairs of his company and it's prof
fer to sell its property and franchise
to the United States. NJ. Jules Boeufve
of the French embassy, also was pres
ent at the hearing. The meeting was
held behind closed doors, representa-
tiveS of the press being excluded.
NJ. Lampre was questioned at great
4ength by the members of the commit
tee. He said his mission to the United
States had been to ascertain to whom
Panama property should be made. Hav-
ing informed himself upon this point
he had conferred with Admiral Walker,
chairman of the ISthmian canal COM
mission as to the form of the offer. He
ethen had cabled to his principals. the
result being that the offer to sell for
$4O,000000 had been made directly from
Paris and not by him He said how
ever that it was his understanding the
proposal included both the franchises
and the property of the Panama COM
pany, but not the money in it's treasury
of which there is about 100000 000 NJ
Lampre was questioned especially con-
corning the title of the present Panama
company, several members of the COM
mittee expressing doubt as to whether
those claiming ownership had secured
unquestionable title. He replied that
they had made this purchase through
the liquidator of the old company and
that the transfer was regular. In re-
Sponse to other questions he said that
in case the transaction should be con-
summated the money would be distrib-
uted among the members of the origi-
nal company and those of the present
organization by arbitration. He said
the proffer of his company had been
made in good faith and that the COM
pany was able :" to deliver the goods"

PORTO RICO's PROGRESS.
An EncouragingReport Brought From
the Island by Returned American.

New York, Jan. 13.LL. S. Rohe, chair
man of the law revision commission of
Porto Rico arrived today from San
Juan on the steamship Ponce. The codes
made the main subject of discussion at
the session of the legislative assembly
of Porto Rico which opened on the first
of January. Speaking of the work of
the session, MIR. Robe said:
The attitude of the legislative as
Sembiy toward the codes submitted by
the commission demonstrates the wide
spread desire to secure, as soon as pos
sible the full benefit of American insti-
tutfOnS. The Foraker act continued in
force all the Spanish laws until amend
ed or repealed by the local legislative
assembly. This work of amendment
has been taken up with great earnest
ness The codes which the legislative
assembly is now considering will bring
the legal system of Porto Rico into
close harmony with the general princi-
pies of law prevailing in the state and
territories of the union and will to that
extent encourage the influx of Ameri-
can capital to the island.
The feeling of bouyancy which now
prevails throughout Porto Rico stands
in marked contrast with the depression
of two years ago The improvement of
the credit of the municipalities, as
shown by the San Juan loan will en-
able the cities and towns to undertake
much needed improvements in drain
age, water supply and sanitation A
final element of strength is added to
the situation by the fact that both po-
litical parties have come to the support
of the adminiStra ton. At the banquet
recently rendered Governor Hunt the
leaders of both parties pledged their
support in the efforts for the advance
ment of the common interests of the

THOMPON'S COUP
District Judge Springs Surprise
at Last Minute.
Secures Order to Prevent Heizer
From Holding Court.

Papers Are Secured Before the

Date For Hearing Fixed For
February IL.
ALSO ENJOINS OFFICERS

Westmoreland, Jan. 13-Judge William
Thomson is still in possession of the
bench of the district court at West
moreland, Pottawatomie, where the ju-
dicial contest came to a head today. He
secured restraining order in the pro-
bate court of Pottawatomie county, re-
straining R. c. Heizer from attempt
ing to act as district judge, and re-
straining Sheriff ]. c. Cooper and the
clerk of the district court from recog-
nizing Heizer as Judge The return day
is made February II and by that time
the supreme court will probably nave
taken a hand in the matter, In the
meantime Judge Thomson can proceed
with court at Westmoreland unless he
chooses to adjourn or unless Mr.. Heizer
gets some other court having jurisdic-
ton in the matter to enjoin him
Judge Thomson opened court at West
moreland on Friday. Saturday night
the attorneys in attendance at the court
there held meeting and decided that ac-
cording to the law Judge thomson s
term did not end until midnight to-
night so that Mr.. Heizer could not
open court until tomorrow
This delayed matters for Judge
Thomson and this morning ne secured
his restraining order from the probate
Judge, j. B. Laughlin. Mr.. Heller was,
of course on hand, and the writ from
the probate court was served on him.
This will probably allow Judge Thom-
son TO compete some
ton which he is hearing He has now
on hand very important case known
as the Benton-Beaky suit, in which
some $4,000 is involved. -Four days OF
time was consumed in listening to evi-
dence two weeks ago, when the court
adjourned until after the holidays. The
court adjourned with the evidence still
unfinished. There is no jury in the case.
A change of judges means retrial OF
the issue. The attorneys present trying
it are Charles Hayden, Case Broderick,
of Holton; Judge Bergen, of Topeka.
and Senator J. K. Codding.
There is also prisoner in the county
jaiI who was tried and convicted nearly
a month ago before Judge Thomson
on the charge of assault with intent to
kill He is still to be sentenced. Public
opinion at Westmoreland seems to be
largely in favor of Thomson, although
the county officials were inclined to
recognize HeiZer.

Filininos Buy a Shin.

Tacoma Wash, jan 13.-The Manila
Times reports that the British ship
Celeste Borrill has been purchased at
auction at Hong Kong by Fflipinos, and
will hereafter fly the American flag. The
Celeste Borrill sailed from Manila sew
eral months ago for Port Townsend
and Tacoma. While off the Formosa
coast she encountered a severe typhoon,
which threatened her destruction. When
the storm abated she managed to reach
Hong Kong. Her damages were so Sc
we're that her owners cabled from Eng
land to sell her. Several bidders ap-
peared but the highest price was offered
by the Compania General de Tabacos
of Manila, which will repair the vessel
and sail it under American colors.
