NIukden, Dec s. Early Saturday
morning to the west Of the railway Cos
sacks routed. Japanese south Of. Lad
toun and captured eight guns. This
brilliant action is described by a Chi
nese who, dressed as a Cossack, partici
pated III the attack, as follows:
We advanced and soon saw before us
the outline CT battery. All the Japa
nese were asleep except the sentries. W.
encircled the battery and attacked from
the rear The Japanese had not expect
ed such an audacious and sudden attack
and when the Don Cossacks charged OF
q dead run, followed by chasseurs OF
foot, the Japanese were badly scarce
and unable to realize what was happen
ing.
They rushed half dressed from 'thei
tents, only to be met by shots apd bayo
nets. The fight lasted only .! few min
utes, wien the whole camp broke ant
fed in a wild panic, leaving the guns il

Extracts from Speeches.

Other extracts from speeches of Hef
lin have been collected and have been
placed before each member Of the house,
a and in letter signed BY Asa a E.
panying these extracts it is said:
1t is respectfully submitted that J..
Thomas Hef1in should not be permitted
to take his seat in the house as the sue
cessor Of c.. w. Thompson from the
fifth Alabama district, because of his
anarchistic utterances during the late
political campaign. In speaking Of the
presence Of Professor Booker T. Wash
ington, who ate luncheon with the pres
ident at the White House, he said:
"There they sat, Roosevelt and Booker,
and if some Czogosz or one Of his kind
had thrown a bomb under the table nc
great harm would have been done the
country
He further said, in the same speech, in
speaking of the possibility Of Booker
, Washington taking part in the campaign
eff Booker takes hand in this thing il
will be one time I will ask him to ster
out. I will ask him to keep hands off
and you know we have way Of influ.
. ! encing negroes down here"
These are extracts from his reported
speech In Tuskegee, Ala, during the
campaign. 1t is also reported that HI
said on another occasion, in speaking O.
the statesboro (Ga.), affair, that it wa
but sending Off of few more repub
, licans singing Nearer My God to Thee,
, a brutal alusion to the death Of Presi
, dent Mckinley. The extracts are but al
index to the mans character and life.
3 Unfit as Member.
The opinion which appears to prevail
among members here is that Hefin is a.
, unfit person to be in the house. but tina
to refuse him admittance would be t.
= make a "martyr" of him, and thu
!, crafty his taste for notoriety. I
would not be surprising, however, if
: when Heflin presents himself before tn
bar of the house to be sworn in, oh
lection will be made, and, as in tn
case Of Roberts Of Utah, he may hav
g to stand aside and await the report o
: the elections committee, as to whethe
: he is proper person to admit to mem
q bership. =. -. -.

Misguided Patriotism.

Some misguided Phoenix patriot all
 most committed murder on Saturday night. He stole beer keg from Louis
 Meiczer's place and taking it to the corner of Adams and Second avenue he filled it with dynamite or some other explosive and touched it off. A beer keg IS pretty streng receptacle but it could not stand against such a load as had beer put into it. Pieces of the slaves were hurled in every direction and a rain of them tell about citizen and little boy who happened to be passing. Fragments of the keg were found block and half iron. the scene of the explosion. A great hole was torn in the ground and even fence posts in the nei eighborhood were thrown down. This Is the kind of patriotism that fills we'll meaning peo pie with apprehension as the natal day Those whose relatives are killed or maimed regret that the British did not get the best of it so that there would be nothing to celebrare.-Pho.- nix Republican.

No Head Tax on MexIcanS.

In an interview with George Webb, head of the Chinese immigration bu- reau at this place, it was learned that the story published by a morning paper i'll regard to the immigration tax, is all wrong MT. Webb said:
 "'rhe head tax law does not apply to citizens of Mexico or the United States or Canadians, either. It Is only i'll cases where immigrants are comin z from some other country through Mex ico or Canada that they are taxed g.
 "For awhile the officials at Fl Pase misunderstood the law and collected head tax of S2 from every person cross ing the line from Mexico, but the Department of Labor and Commerce put stop to that very quickly, for the law distinctly classi6es the persons to be taxed.
 "Of course, no paupers are allowed to come into this country, and every immigrant, Mexican or otherwise, m ust show some means of support.
 "The Department of the Interior" concluded Mir. Webb. "has nothing whatever to do with the case, for 1t comes under the jurisdiction of the Department of Commerce and Labor" CitiZan

 Tucson suffered from two more fires this week, stable belonging to P. Pellon and Congress street saloon being destroyed. The city has been having an epidemic of fires of late, the best possible argument for fire alarm system, steam fire engine and better equipment all around for the local volunteer fire department which is greatly handicapped. It will probably take great conflagration to convince the city of the necessity of an up-to- date fire department, although the authorities are now con- the purchase of a fire alarm system.

ACHpS PROPOSED
LOCAL SYSTEM
SEPARATE ACTS TO GIVE MORE
POWER TO THE LOCAL ELEC-
TORATE.

Following is a sample one of seven
acts prepared by Senator Achi to take
the place of the County law, by maxi
ing sheriffs, magistrates, road super
visors etc, elective officers:
Be it enacted by the Legislature of
the Territory of Hawaii:
Section l. District Magistrates shall
be elected by electors i'm each District,
where such Magistrates have jurisdic-
ton. They shall be electors of the Dis
trict at the time of the election. Their
salaries shall be appropriated by the
Legislature.
The duties of District Magistrates
shall be the same as are now exercised
by District Magistrates, or may be pro-
Vided by law.
Section >. The term of Office of Dis
trict Magistrates elected under this Act
shall be two years from the first day
of January next after the election. Pro-
vided that all Magistrates i'm Office at
the time of the first election shall be
allowed to serve for the balance of such
terms, or thereafter until their success
viously removed.
Section 8. A District Magistrate may
be removed from office for cause by
the Supreme Court.
In case of removal of any District
Magistrate as aforesaid, or in case OF
vacancy in office for any cause, the
Chief Justice or any Judge of the SUI
preme Court may appoint one in his
place for the uneXpired term of said
Magistrate.
Section 4. An election for such Mag
istrates shall be held on the first Tues

by the Inspectors of Election Cor "whc
| served at the last general election'O in
and for such District or i'm office at the

trates.

u. S, MINISTER
SUES FOR $4,000
CELEBRATED CASE ARISES BE-
FORE THE CONSULAR COURT IN
BANKOK, SIAM.

Under date of September "a, from
Bankok, Siam, the Straits Echo reports
the progress of a celebrated American
case i'm the United States consular
court within the next fortnight. That
at will be distinctly unique i'm the an
nails of litigation will be at once seen,
says the account, when we state that
he who poses as plaintiff is no other
than the Hon. Hamilton King, United
States minister plenipotentiary and
envoy extraordinary to the court of
Siam; and his little claim is the trifing
sum of 5000 gold dollars for services
rendered in connection with the estate
of the late DR.. Cheek, an American
missionary, we believe. The defendant

decided before Mr.. ]. p. Selden, acting
consul, one of the younger school of
diplomats. AS the defendant widow is,
however. at present resident in Ameri-
ca, an effort to have the trial removed
to New York should, it strikes us, be
successful.
But, however the outcome of the
United States minister plenipotenti-
ary's claim, it does seem to the ordin-
airy lay mind nothing short of extra
ordinary that such a suit can be raised
by a diplomat of his undoubtedly high
position. The matter is causing more

said, to restore his income of $500 per
year.
Evelyn Nesbit is yet to be reckoned
with. 1t seems to be understood that
the figure she will demand for releas-
ing Harry Thaw will be fully as hand
some as her own. Some time ago she
allowed rumor to drift into Pittsburg
that for $3.50, 900 she would go far from
the Thaws. This is the message which
called down on Harry Thaw the last
bunch of family wrath, and which
brought things to a head. Harry Thaw
hasn't $250,O00. He has Il yearly in
come, but that is usually spent before
he gets it, and the prospect of the fam
lily digging for that sum caused all the
trouble.
