SHUT OUT NEWSPAPERS.
Santa Fe Adopts Peculiar Policy at
Las Vegas Shops.

The Las Vegas Optic says: Orders
have been received at the round house
to give the reporters of newspapers no
more news items. 1t seems that the
officials are afraid that the reporters
will get something wrong or publish
items hat the management does not
want known, while at every other di-
vision point on the road items are
given up freely. The two Albuquerque
papers publish railroad items which
could not be gotten In any other way
than by the reporters visiting the Off
GERS and shops, just as the reporters
here have done. The Topeka State
Journal also runs several columns of
local railroad news collected in the
same way. What the peculiar situation
may be in Las Vegas which requires
that no one should know what is tax
ing place in railroad circles is hard to
say. However. it is a to say thai
the railroad column will not suffer.
Readable items ave often beer sup
pressed by reporters on newspapers at
the request of officials. 1t is a great
deal better plan for officials to give a
newspaper their confidence and have
items appear correctly.
What promised to be an interesting
little event last Sunday was carefully
guarded so as not to get into the pa
pers. The machinists at the round
house have for some time had a griey-
ance against the company. They have
asked for redress several times but
without effect. Last Sunday, a man
was selected TO bear the brunt of the
blame and was laid off. So great was
the protest that followed that ne was
reinstated on Monday morning and
things this week show a little imprte-
ment.

ANENT ARTHUR A. M'KAIN
GOOD REASON WHY HE WILL WITH
DRAW FROM COUNTY TICKET.
He Is at Present PLAINTIFF in n Suit
Against the County Auditor-The
Ring Wants Him.

The Democratic county ticket is trying to
preserve its backbone. The backbone is
conceded to be Arthur A. McKain, nominee
for auditor. Mr.. McKain contributes, in
the estimation of the rest of the ticket the
financial stability that most of them want
others well provided with this worlds
goods are looked upon with the same
thought that a man looks at the bark on a
hickory tree. They are not spendthrifts
Mr. McKain was nominated for auditor first
TO silence a protest against the ring which
gobbled all the other offices, and second to
bring financial backbone TO the county
ticket But the ring is now dismayed be-
cause of the fact that Mr.. McKain insists
on withdrawing The ticket expected that
he would feel his personal responsibility on
it so great that he would unloosen his purse
strings and inspire" the workers.
McKains reason for Withdrawing is
neither sentimental nor selfish. 1t is be-
cause he is now plaintiff in suit against
the county auditor, and if he should hap
pen TO be elected TO this Office he would be
both plaintiff and defendant. AS president
of the Indiana Manufacturing Company,
whose assessment he has contested in the
courts he became the plaintiff. 1t is seen
by the managers that the reason is good
and that McKains withdrawal is newt
able
There is no disposition to let McKain get
away from the ring, however, and a
scheme is on foot to place another man on
the county ticket and give the nomination
for Congress TO Mckain. None of the ring
statesmen wants this nomination knowing
what a task il will be 10 make a race
against Mr.. Overstreet. But the ring feels
that McKain is ripe for big contribution
and that he will be more liberal if nomi-
mated for Congress.
other candidates on the ticket want to
meet and select the successor Of McKain
Joseph +. Bell has been mentioned The
ring is saving him, however, with the ex-
pectation of making him the candidate for
mayor next year. Ii is also understood
that Bell is not likely TO Jar loose" in the
present campaign. and that since he
played the farce in the last city campaign
as dummy candidate for two or three davs
he has made up his mind 10 seek the nonni-
nation for mayor

Statistics of the Philippine Insurrec-

Killed and Wounded.

WASHINGTON, July 23.-The War De-

regarding the school teachers who have
been missing from Cebu since June TO-:

CINCINNATI. o.. July 23-Ernest Heger
left Cincinnati Feb. rs. TO become a teacher
in the Philippine islands. He was a grad
uate of the Cincinnati University class of
1885. His father, Carl Heger. was to-day
notified by the War Department of the
young teachers death. Only an hour before
receiving the telegram from the War De-
Jessie France. of Berea, o.. who is a cous-
in of Louis S. Thomas. reported killed with
Heger. saying that Thomas was safe in
Japan. She had received letter from him
from Japan. dated June 6. Mr.. Heger will

One of the Principal Questions Now
Is the Selection of Suitable Rooms
for Headquarters.
CALLS FOR THE SENATORS
INVITATIONS COME TO THEM IN AL
MOST EVERY MAIL.
They VIII, However, Be Largely AT
the Disposal of the Indiana
state Committee.

With the exception of moving into perma-
nent headquarters and selecting his cam
paign committee Chairman Elliott, of the
county Republican committee. is prepared
for the work of the campaign. The chair
man has completed his executive committee,
which is composed of A. NJ. Glossbrenner
l.. G.. Rothschild, Edwin d. Logsdon. James
w Noel, William T. Brown, s. A. Furnss,
F. A. Joss and Arthur c. White.
The fact that the chairman has been un-
able to secure permanent headquarters up
to this time has in no way retarded the
work of the committee. The work is be-
ing carried on in the rooms Of the city clerk
in the police station building, and although
the quarters small the chairman has
been able to get out a good deal of work.
Just now the chairman is waiting for maps
showing the precinct boundaries under the
readjustment of some of these boundaries
Under the new arrangement there will be
254 precincts in the county instead of 24O,
an increase of fourteen precincts. When
the maps are completed the chairman will
appoint the additional precinct committee
men and will also appoint his campaign
committee, which consists of about twenty
five members, and will take the place of
the committee heretofore selected from the
different wards. This committee in con-
junction with the executive committee will
assist the chairman and secretary in carry
ing on the work of the campaign. In Sc.
lecting the campaign committee the chair
man will be governed by the political con-
dtions in each ward in selecting his men,
Some wards will require more attention
than others and will of course be repre-
sented by more members on the committee
Chairman Elliott is somewhat perplexed
in regard TO selecting his headquarters Up
to this time he has been unable to find
rooms. He has been endeavoring to get
into the Wright block, but is rather doubt
full about being able to secure rooms there
IL will require from six TO eight rooms TO
accommodate the committee this year as
each department will have its own apart
ments. A speakers bureau will be one
of the features of the county campaign
Chairman Elliott is also favorably i'm
pressed with the card system" which was
employed in the last city campaign and
will probably introduce IL into this cam
paign. I'VE will have no formal opening
this campaign" said the chairman yester-
day, except TO join with the state COM
mittee in its opening on Sept 90 Prior to
that time-about the middle of August-our
precinct committeeman and campaign COM
mittee will begin 10 get busy, and by the
time the state committee is ready for its
hurrah meetings we will be prepared to
join. | am of opinion that Senator Bev-
eridge will open the campaign in this
county.

woman, cutting her under the ear sec
ond slash severed the jugular. then the
murderer stepped out side door and es-
capped. At midnight he was still at large

Unlike Archbishop Ireland.

DENVER, Col. July 23.-Resolutions have
been unanimously adopted by the Catholic
clergy of the Denver diocese, assembled in
annual retreat, which take views of the
school question and the friar question in the
Philippines differing from those recently
expressed by Archbishop Ireland. The reso-
lutions commend the act establishing a de-
partment Of public instruction in the Philip
pines In so far as religious instruction is
permitted at certain times, but declares
that the denomina tibnal system in vogue in
England should have been esta blished.
They request the government to guard
against attempts at proselyting by teach
ers and protest against the forcible removal
OF the friars as a violation of the Constitu-
ton.

Progress on the Manila Post.

WASHINGTON. July 23.-Reports have
reached the War Department that excel
lent progress is making on the Manila post.
Congress appropriated $4,000 early in the
year, and 1850 acres Of land on the Pasig
river has been acquired for the post. The
tract is about three miles long and one mile
wide. Roads have been graded and ma
cadamized from the river 10 the new build
1ngs. and work the latter is being
pushed rapidly. The lumber for these quar-
ters is sent from the Columbian river and
Puget Sound. Ii costs about $15 per thous-
and, and about SO per thousand more for
transportation, but the total cost is cheaper
than II can be purchased for in Manila. II
