Eric. Pa, June 24.-Delegates to the
democratic state convention, which
meets tomorrow TO choose candidates
for governor, lieutenant governor and
secretary of internal affairs are arriv-

decorated in honor of the occasion
and leading citizens are taking an act

visitors. The convention will be call
ed to order in the Park opera house at

NEBRASKA FUSlONISTS.
Democrats and Populists viii Make a
Fusion Ticket,

Grand Island, Neb.. June 24.-Ne-
braska democrats and populists assem-
bled in convention here today for the
purpose of agreeing upon fusion
state ticket to be voted for this fall.
The two elements are in complete har-
mony and determined to pursue a Wig
crous campaign in an effort to defeat
the republican ticket. One of several
democratic aspirants will be chosen
to head the ticket and the remainder
OF the places will be apportioned equal
ly between the two parties.
The democrat and populist state con
Yention was called TO order at
O'Clock this afternoon. Everybody
seemed as much in doubt as ever as
TO who would be nominated on the
head of the ticket. The range of pos
sibilities, in case OF Bryan's refusal to
accept the nomination, has narrowed
down to about five or six men,
SIR. Bryan today refused to com.
nit himself on the question whether
he would accept the nomination for
governor, but il is confidently believed
Uy the fusion leaders that If he is ten
dered the unanimous nomination by
both conventions that he will not de
cnne.
Little has been said about platforms
but it is known that a feature would
be planks against the corporations and
against the present state administra-
tions On national issues. Cuba and
Philippines and the trusts will receive
attention, but the question of indors-
ing the Kansas City platform is not
being discussed.
Bryan had a conference with the dem
ocrats and populists shortly before
noon and urged upon them that his
name not be brought before the con-
vention and it is now thought his wish
will prevail. Senator Allen also de-
ciared himself emphatically against
accepting the nomination. With these
two men out of the running ii is not
probable that fusion will prevail.

OIL AT RATION.
Work Of Development to Begin in
July.
SPECIMENS OF oiL-BEARINo ROCK

C. c. Hall has returned from Ration,
and brought with him rich specimens
of oil-bearing rock and petrifications
from the Ration oil fields. These speci.
mems show that there is at Ration an
extensive oil field, which when devel-
oped, will make that city the center of
great oil industry. Mr.. Hall will
place the specimens on exhibition in
the Commercial club in this city.
The company operating the Ration
oil fields have $4,000 in cash in bank
with which to begin active work. A
contract has been let to bore a well
to a depth of 1900 feet, if necessary.
The machinery of the boring company
is now on the ground and work will
begin on July A.
Colorado capitalists are interested
with the people of Ration in the COM
pany that will develop this promising
oil field, and the chances are good that
within a few weeks The Citizen can
chronicle flowing oil well at Ration.
DR.. j. ]. Shuler is the president of
the Ration Oil company; C. N. Black
well, the banker, is treasurer; and
George w. Earnshaw, secretary.
Mr. Hall is enthusiastic over the
outlook for the Ration Oil company and
predicts a big gusher will soon be
tapped.

Epworth League Meeting.

A well attended and very interesting
Epworth League convention was held
at Ration for four days closing last
Sunday night. Various topics of inter-
est were discussed and many able and
instructive addresses were delivered.
Among the most interesting was one
by Mrs. DR.. Morrison on the league
and missions. M. V. Long, of East
Vegas. gave a very helpful address at
the Sunday school hour Sunday morn
ing on Sunday school work. Dr. Nor
rison preached an eloquent and able
sermon on Sunday morning. and DR..
Bunker, the pastor of the Lead avenue
Methodist church of this city, spoke
Sunday evening. A special feature of
the convention was the music which
was particularly fine. Quartettes, du-
etts, solos and instrumental selections
abounded. Mrs. NJ A. Warner, recent
ly of Topeka, Kas.. sang several solos
that completely captivated her atdi-
ences. Another Epworth League con-
vention is being arranged for in tne
fall at a somewhat more central place.

DISTRICT COURT.
Judge Baker Decides the Southwest
ern Brewery Case.
VALENCIA COUNTY CASES.

The case of Harry Rankin, ct al, VS..
the Southwestern Brewery G. Ice com
pany, which has been on in the district
court So long, was decided yesterday
afternoon by Judge Baker. The court
held that the contemplated purchase of
"a s16,0C ice plant under contract
entered into by virtue of authority
granted at a directors meeting, of
which the plaintiffs (Rankins) had re.
ceived no legal notice, should be en-.
Joined, and the contract cancelled. The
court also held that the salaries voted
by the Ioebs brothers to themselves
were illegal, but that they should be
allowed such salary as their services
were worth from the time of purchase
into the concern of the Rankins in
1900. and the court determined the
salary of Jacob Loebs to be reasonable
at 5000 per month, and Henry Loebs
at S125 per month.
The court this morning tried three
Valencia county cases. In the case of
John Becker VS.. Ceciliana Sanchez de
Vigil for $3.50 on an open account. the
court neld the claim to have been
barred by the statute of limitations.
The next case of John Becker VS..
the widow of the late F. X. Vigil, was
for $500, and the court granted judg-
ment for all items shown to have been
necessaries of life, the amount to be
agreed upon.
The court also granted judgment
against same party in the suit of Oscar
Goebel for 5000.

LIVELY DELEGATION.
Visit el Paso in Interest Of Quen
Sabe Club and Territorial Fair.
ENTHUSIASM MANIFESTED.

Sheriff T. S. Hubbell, Joe Sheridan
and p. f. McCanna constitute a prom
inent delegation of Albuquerqueans
who are spending. few days in El
Paso on business bent, but their many
friends here, especially among the
Elks, are managing to mix in lot of
pleasure for them during the intervals,
says the El Paso News.
Messrs. Hubbell and Sheridan are
here to confer with local Elks about
the Quien Sabe marching club which
Is to show the national gathering at
Salt Lake City in August whole lot
of things illustrative of the enterprise
and getupitiveness of the southwestern
Elks. Albuquerque and El Paso have
Joined issues in the club and are work
ing ii up together, while other lodges
in this section will be more or less
largely represented. Albuquerque,
however, promises to outdo El Paso in
the number of members it will contrib
ute to the club. Twenty-six of the AL
buquerque Elks have ordered outfits
but so far only fifteen FL Paso Elks
have done so. The herd here is enthu-
siastic over the idea, but many who
would like to go do not see their way
clear to getting away just at that time
for several days.
Mr.. McCanna comes in the interest
of the twenty-second annual territorial
fair to be held October 14-1S. He is
working on q great base ball feature
for the fair and wants to match a fine
Albuquerque team against a similar
one from El Paso for n series of
games there during the fair and then
nave the two teams play a series OF
games here. He is meeting with much
announcement and will probably ar
range the match
Mr. McCanna says the fair this year
promises TO be much greater success
than ever and he is very enthusiastic
over the prospects. He states that one
important and enjoyable feature will
be a grand spectacular affair entitled.
The Coming of Montezuma," which
will probably be under the auspices of
the Elks. Tie spectacle will be after
the old Aztec legend, about the second
coming of Montezuma, the emperor of
the Aztecs, who was beheaded by Cor
teZ. The legend goes that Montezuma
will some time return, riding an enor-
nous eagle hearing in its mouth a
white snake with pink eyes. About
500 people will take part in the pro-
duction.
The Albuquerqueans were met at
the train yesterday morning by COM
mittee OF Elks, who took them in
charge and they have not been allowed
to suffer the least bit from ennui since
they have been here. They expect TO
leave for home tonight.

Jefferson City, Mo-. June 14.-Har.
mony characterized the preliminary
proceedings of the republican state
convention in session here today for
the nomination OF candidates for rail
road and warehouse commissioners
and state superintendent of public
schools. Something over 1000 dele
gates and an equal number of visitors
filled the convention hall when the con.
vention was called to order shortly af-
ter 10 o'clock By Thomas ]. Atkins,
chairman of the state committee. Oc,
cupying seats on the platform were
Richard G. Kerens, national commit
teeman; Congressman Joy and Ber-
tholdt and other leaders of the repub-
lican party in Missouri. The appear
ance of Mr.. Kerens was the signal for
loud applause from the convention and
enthusiastic greetings were extended
also to the other party leaders.
After brief opening speeches the roll
was called and the usual committees
on nominations and resolutions were
appointed. A recess was then taken
to allow the committees to perform
their duties. The platform will deal
with both national and state issues.
The death of President Mckinley wiil
be deplored and plank inserted Wig.
orously indorsing the administration
and policy of President Roosevelt. The
administration OF state affairs in Mis-.
souri, by the democrats win come in for
general condemnation.
The trend OF the speeches was that
the platform should endorse the
Roosevelt Cuban sugar reciprocity
policy. All speakers asked fo~ har-
mony and the remarks received en-.
Enthusiastically. +. e. McJimsey is TEN.
