NEW HAGUE CONFERENCE
Secretary Hay Has Issued Note Con-
 tainiBg Proposal.

Washington, D. C., Oct. 39.-In cir cular ncte, Secretary Hay has carried out the presidents instructions Iela- tive to proposing a second Hague con ference. The note not only Conterl- plates the reasSembling of The HagUe Conference for the consideration C- questions specifically menticuet by the original conference as demanding fur ther attention, such as the rights and yduties of neutrals. the iuviollbiGty of private Froperty in naval warfare and the bcmbardmelt of ports by naval force. but goes further by practically endorsing the project or general system of arbitration treaties and the establishment Of an international con- gress to meet peIioiicany in the inter- ests Of peace. The issue of the call while the present war is in progress is Justified by the fact that the first Hague conference was called before our treaty Of peace with Spain was concluded.

HE DIED ON THE TRAIN
z Man AcCideDtly Shot in PinaI COnty
 Yesterday Morning.

Phoenix & Eastern train No. 4G from Piual county, ran into the city limits with a dying man yesterday. He died as the train stopped ac the sta ton. He was Louis Ramirez. and he had been accidentally shot by a com panion, Fermin Colmeuero. near Wink elman's station, yesterday morning. The two men, with two companions. were returning from Garcia's ranch when the shooting occurred. The weapon was a A Golts, but just how it was discharged is not yet known. The ball entered Ramirez on the right side, slightly in front Of and little above the hip- IL passed directly through the body. emerging a H1uc back of the left side.
 . The wounded man was taken to the railroad station and put on train which was just then coming along for Phoenix. He was accompanied by the man who shot him. Dr. W. L. Wood ruff, of Troy, happened to be on the train, anda he afforded such relief as was possible. It was evident, though, that he could not survive; 1t was hard ly thought possible that he would live until the train reached this city.

 As a matter Of form, Coimenero was taken into custody and put into the county jail. and an inquest was held by Justice Burnett. The members Of the jury were J. A. Agard, L. J. Court. A. J. Moore, w. Davis. L. C. Hardin and J. C. Atherton. Only the testimony of Dr. Woodruff was taken, as he desired to return home last night, and an ad- journment was taken until 10 o'clock this morning, when Mir Hennes and the prisoner will be examined. It is likely that the prisoner will be dis charged at the conclusion Of the in- quest.

THE GRAHAM LANDSLIDE
Fowler Sentiment on the Upper Gila
 Steadily Growing.

Stafford AIiz.. Oct 30.-CSpecial)- Mr. Fowler spoke at Thatcher last night to a large and enthusiastic audi ence. The Saford Fowler club, fifty strong. attended in a body, with flags and transparencIes. The meeting was attended by many of Smiths lorme- supporters, notwithstanding smith himself spoke at Stafford at the same hour.
 This county is growing stronger for Fowler every day. The opposition is trying 10 put up a defense for Smith, but it is weak and ineffective. and the ex-KentUckiau's personality is not s-f- ficient to hold together the old guard. 8Ir. Fowler's friends confidently expect a landslide for him in this county iu November.
 Irrespective of party, the people oc the Gila valley are expressing their confidence in MT. Fowler as the great champion Of national irrigation and as a sincere friend of Arizona.

 So many have asked the question. Have you seen Candida %" that an other question has arisen from so many more people, viz: What is 'Candida?'"
 Briefly as possible, Candida" is one of the strangest, wittiest, cleanest, most enjoyable comedies ever put on the stage. George Bernard Shaw os London, England, wrote it. As he. is Q sort of literary crank he cared little when he wrote the play, whether 1t ever was played or not. He is a man who ut -rly hates romance in life that Is, he hates to have a man or woman appear to be something that is in exact variance with what he or she thinks and is And he hates to have people form impossible ideals which they can never reach.
 Tn Candida he takes the home of an English clergyman for the main- spring of his story. Candida is the beautiful, pure matron of the house hold A young poet falls in love with her. She has sympathy for his physl- cal weakness and his flights of poetic ferVor; but she never dreams that he Is conscious of his own passion, al- though she herself is aware of it. She is only fearful that the young life of the dreamy vagaEist wifi be wrecked by a misstep.
 Innocent woman, She is shocked 10 find, the same day she discovers the youths passion, that he has audacious- ly-ln his candid way, told her hus. band oft and that they are at swords points. Then in a very original way she straightens out the tangle and spares neither her husband nor the youth in doing it. It is all delightful and mirtnful and makes one think

COMANCHE COUNTY VIEW
OF THE DEAL.

Topeka, Oct, IS, R. c. Strain,
clerk of the district court of
Comanche county, was in To
peka to attend the meeting of
the Grand Lodge of Odd Eel
lows.
When asked what he thought
of the Comanche county bond
deal and what the people of Com
anche county think about it he
said:
"The deal has an ugly look and
the people who are familiar with
it do not like it. 1t looks rather
funny when a stranger can draw
$4,000 from the county for engi-
neering the deal. The people of
Comanche county have to pay
this money if it is paid and they
naturally do not like it. They
believe that some one in the
county got part of the money for
helping to put the deal through"
"Do you think that $4,000
is pretty heavy debt for Com
anche county," was asked.
"Why that is more than Com
anche county is worth" said Mr..
Strain laughing.
"How do the people of the
county feel about the bonds?"
"They feel rather bitter about
them. The county has never
had straw's worth of benefit
from these bonds. They were
issued at time when there were
no people in the county. or there
may have been one man, and not
a penny has the county ever had
Meade County news. [volume] (Meade, Kan.) 1900-1918, 1904-10-27

in return for the bonds. The
people have given up trying to
beat the bonds and the best they
can hope for now, is compro-
mise of some sort-perhaps that
can be made now that the state
holds the bonds"
"What is the population of
Comanche county?"
at is about 1000 people and
this indebtness bears down pref
ty heavily upon them, especially
since they have never received
any benefit from it."
"What is land worth in your
county,"
"There is very little land
changing hands now, but l be-
lieve that some sales have been
made at from SIS to Sc per acre.
Five years ago a great deal OF
land was sold at ST per acre, and
it was nearly all bought up by
cattle men. The mortgage COM
panies then held nearly all the
land"
"Where do these cattlemen
live now?"
"They are nearly all residents
of Comanche county and all their
interests are there.
"How long have you lived in
Comanche county,"
81 have lived there twenty
years and for six years have
been clerk of the court. l was
not in Comanche county when the
bonds we're issued, and for that
matter, there is not a resident
of Comanche county now who
was there at that time, because
there was no one there and that
is why it is so hard for us to
shoulder this debt. don't be.
lieve that people could blame us
for not looking with favor upon
these bonds"

WHO SUCKED THE EGGS?
The last Legislature raised our
taxes from 5 100000 (page 672
laws 1901 to 100000 (page 739
laws 19O3)-a raise ofone fourth.
Whew that's some! 1t will take
it all to pay the appropriations
of that legislation. Now all ap-
preparations go through the
Ways and Means committees.
That is what the committees are
for. and if a legislature is extra
VACANT, it's Ways and Means
committee is responsible for the
extravaganza.
Senator Noftzger was a promi-
nent member of the Ways and
Means com mittee of the Senate.
He is seeking reelection, if re-
elected these fellows who made
that record will accept their re-
election as an endorsement of
their extravaganza; if they are
defeated it will warn politicians
and subsequent legislatures
against extravaganza. Which
way are you going to vote-to
vindicate that record, or to turn
the fellows who made it down?
The opponent of Senator
Noftzger is A. B. Reeves, of
Dodge City, formerly Receiver
of the United States Land Office
there.
