The Advertisers suggestion Of ]. A.
Gilman for the Republican candidate to
succeed the late Representative Gil
Allan is not without points which ap-
peal to the good judgment of the peo-
pie. Mr.. Gilman has been and now is
an ardent supporter Of the present
Territorial policy, he is personally
friendly with the Governor and is well
known to the business community, lie
would command the support of the
party organization and his canvass as
against Prince Cupid would make a
straightforward fight and give true
test of public sentiment. Gilman is a
hard party worker, knows the district
and could make as favorable canvass
as any man whom the Dole wing can
put forward.

TO PROTECT THE PR.sIDeN T..
boston POst.l

lbO9Nou AOoN'l
One of the things the new Congress
will be called upon to do is to provide
better protection for the President of
the United States by the enactment OF
laws deterrent of aDarChistic assault
upon the Chief Executive. As Solicit
tor General Richards said in Philadel-
phia the other day, the President of
the United States must be protected
10y United States laws.
We think it is possible to do this
directly, without the roundabout pro-
cess of amending the constitution, so
as to bring an offense against the per-
son OF the President within the defni
tion of treason. In theory, the Presi-
dent is only citizen and is subject to
the laws of the several States, wher.
ever he may be, like any other. But
in fact he is more than a citizen in that
he stands for the authority of the en-
tire citizenship of all the States, and
he should be surrounded with protec-
tion running everywhere, into every
bailiwick, in the Republic.
II Is no derogation of the rights of o
sovereign state to make a Federal law
an attempt upon the life Of the Presl.
dent punishable by heavier penalty
than the short term in Jail or in prison
prescribed for assault with intent to
kiln" No reasonable man could OBJ.
ject to this, and we think no reason.
able Interpretation of the fundamental
law would declare it to be unconstitu.
| tional.
| As the matter stands today. the
President might be assassinated in any
one of several States, and his murderer
be spared to live out his days in prison
or perhaps be pardened by some gov
ernor. Or an assault upon the Presi-
dent which wounded but did not kill
might give the perpetrator only five
years in prison.
This is a condition which Congress
ought to change, as 1t has the right to
do.

The proposal to allow members OF
the Territorial convention to hold
proxies in the Republican Territorial
committee can only result in more con-
fusion and more factionaI strife. II
political peace is desired the Territor
ial committee will place the closest
limitations upon the proxy privilege.
No member should be allowed to hold
more than two proxies and outsiders
ought to be barred. Any member OF
the committee who is unable TO fulfill
the duties of his position and must
forever be represented by proxies
ought to have sufficient regard for the
welfare of the party to give way to one
who can do the work.

Governor Dole says that a discus
sion of the steps necessary to develop
the Territory on traditional Amerl-
can lines" has relation to the official
discretion Of the Territorial executive"
This sounds very much as though the
Governor thinks himself king. At all
events it would be interesting and in
structive II he would explain where
traditional American lines can pos
sibly interfere with his opinions or
official discretion.

roof will be supported by columns
Above the roof of the lobby there will

shortly after he retired at his farm
cabin two shots from a rir1e were fired
through q window at him while he lay

According to Scnuster's story. he lay
perfectly quiet for u few moments af-
ter the first shot. believing on the inn
pulse of the moment. that II was a
case of stray bullet from a hunters
rife When the second shot was fired
and he felt the bullet also strike his
bed. he jumped up and sought shelter
in another room. He says the first shot
was fired Immediately after he blew
out the lamplight near his bed.
Schuster did not venture to close an
eye during the remainder OF the night.

1t is stated that Schuster confided to

been cleared up, and no arrests have

The Revival Meeting
Still Interesting,

The revival meetings continue to
draw good audiences. There were some
who thought that after the first few
meetings. when the novelty had worn
of, the interest in the meeting would
die down, but the Rev :ir. Smith
seems to be able to hold the crowds
an the audiences that greet him ev-
cry evening are quite large for Tue
son, where a great deal of interest In
Christian work has never been shown
by the great body OF citizens
The Rev Mr. Smith changed the
subject of his Bible talk at the meet
ing yesterday afternoon. He spoke on
Seven Things We Know and .uis
afternoon talked on "rhe Work of
Christ" which was to have peen his
subject yesterday. The attendance at
the afternoon meetings averages about
100 which. while not large, is good for
an afternoon meeting composed mos;-
ly of women. The Rev. MIR. Smith is
able better to reach each one in tne
audience at these smaller meetings.
At the evening meeting last night
the Rev Mr.. Smith preached on The
True Christ and the False Christs,"
ne SCEElUu was 90 GA "a
Mr. Smiths sermons are. but the dis
course last night was the best that he
has yet delivered. II Is evident that
Mr.. Smith held back little at first
and has powers In reserve upon which
he can draw.
.ss Augustine is training the
chorus after the evening meetings. She
has already filled one side of the plat
form and hopes by Sunday TO have
enough additions to fill the entire plat
form with her chorus. fhis feature OF
the meetings is a great help to Mr.
Smith. as the musicyis an attraction

Cut OFF Toe that
He Might Enlist.

NEW YORK. Jan. 9-Among the
cabin passengers on the transport Me-
Clellan. which recently arrived here
from the Philippines. was Major Henry
Wygant. son OF Captain Wygant of the
United States Army who was. during
1894. 1895 and 1880, commandant In
charge of the Military Department of
Central University. at Richmond. KY.
During those years Major Wygant was
student at the institution.
Careful training In the military
science. together with an inherited
love for such Things. early disposed
Mr. Wygant TO a military career. Hav-
ing failed to secure the appointment OF
his Congressman to cadetship in the
United States Military Academy. Mr.
Wygant refused to be baffled and 60
ing to Fort Thomas, made application
for admission into the Army as a pri-
yate. In the strict physical examina-
ton II was discovered that he had a
crooked little toe, which the officials
thought would become nflamed by
continuous marching and on this
ground refused the application. But
the sturdy young cadet was not or the
kind to allow so small a thing as a
toe to stand between him and his
profession. Returning home. he
mad the ohending member amputated.
and renewed his application, and was
accepted. He remained at Fort Thomas
as a private until the outbreak of the
Spanish War when he was among the
first to go to Cuba, where he served
in all the leading engagements with
such signal gallantry tNat he was pro-
noted first to First Sergeant and then
to Second Lieutenant. After the close
of the war with Spain he went to the
Philippines. where he added new
laurels to his splendid record, In re-
cognition of which he was made
Major of volunteers.

The New Tucson CaraYansary
Plans Of the Hotel Outlined.

The third and fourth floors OF the
hotel are to be divided up into rooms.
In all there will be over 100 rooms in
the hotel. The front part OF the top
floor will be devoted to large ball
room. 35 by 65 feet, and a refreshmenr
room and banquet hall still larger.
From these halls there will be two
promenades leading to roof garden.
This latter is one of the best features
of the hotel Tucson has no large ball
room or dancing hall and the roof gar
den will be great thing especially
during the summer months, although
it could be used throughout the year.
In the basement of the hotel there
will be sample rooms, laundry rooms.
storage rooms and a boiler room. be
sides there will be billiard room %
by 65 feet and two standard length
bowling alleys.
All the material used in the con-
struction of the hotel will be the best
obtainable on the market. AS far as
possible the contracts Tor construction
work will be let to local parties SO
that the city will greatly benefit from
