THE EASTERN WAR.

The Russian Japanese war news
daily grows more intense. The
armies of Japan in Manchuria seem
to have practically surrounded the
Russian forces aud are driving them
IN from two sides. The heavy
fighting of the campaign has been
on for several days.
The Russians make stubborn re-
sistence but seem utterly unable to
resist the persistent assaults of the
determined Japs, and one strong
hold after another is sacrificed as
their lines are contracted.
The Japs have succeeded in cut
ting the Russian army intwo and il
looks very much like it will be an
initiated unless the Russians slip
out o the north and reach Mukden.
The Japs have been hammering
away on Port Arthur and have taken
number of strategic and strongly
fortified points near the main de-
fences.
Military critics claim the main
defences cannot stand long against
the persistency of the Japs.
The Russian Vladivastok squad
ron, that has been at large for some
time, has returned to port without
creating much excitement or inhict
ing any particular damage on the
Japanese. They captured and sank
two or three small merchant vessels
belonging to nutral powers and go,
Russia in tangle with Germany
and England as we'll as America.
All told the Japsa are making rapid
progress towards victory.

EDWARD A. uGNN
STRONGLY SUPPORTED
1t Is Thought That the Judgship Ap-
pointment, Which Will Likely
Be Made Tomorrow, Will
Fall to Him.

! The following recent dispatch from
Washington to the Denver Republican
concerning the appointment of new
rectly. In this connection is is but
proper to add that A. C. Campbell of
Roswell and assistant attorney in the
legal branch of the Department of the
| Interior has been very strongly in
ldorsed and his case was carefully con-
sidered. 1t is believed, however, that
as Mr.. Mann has the Endorsements of
Delegate Rodey, Governor Otero, Ma
tional Committeeman Solomon Luna
and of the Republican territorial or
ganization, he will be successful. The
appointment is expected tomorrow.
The dispatch says:
Delegate Rodey of New Mexico call
ed on the President today and filed
some additional papers favorable to
the appointment of Edward A. Mann
of Las Cruces. N NJ, as territorial
Judge. There were SO many candi-
dates for the place and such division
of support among the candidates that
the President was not inclined to act
until there was some kind of an agree
ment. Mr.. Rodey himself did not at
first support Mr.. Mann.
"The President promised some time
ago to give the judgship to New Mex
leo man instead of an outside man, if
the Republicans there could agree up
on competent lawyer. The acquisi-
ton of the support of Mr.. Rodey for
Mr. Mann is understood to give him
the Republican organization OF the
state, including Governor Otero. and
varius other officials of prominence
with the territorial government
Mr. Rodey says New Mexico's peo-
pie are gratified at the Presidents
recognition of the principle of home
rule in this particular appointment. In
former judgship appointments the
President has selected men from other
states and the territorial Republicans
felt badly. In most cases, however
the fault was their own, inasmuch as
they failed to agree upon one man
and fought each other bitterly about
candidates. 1t is expected Mr.. Mann
will be appointed within few days"

Commission.

After the report was read and ac-
cepted the discussion over the site of
the new school buildings began. The
board was pretty evenly divided be-
tween those who favored block for
the schoOlhouse site and those who ia
vored block 5, the block in the north
east corner of the reservation After
a great deal of argument block was
chosen, with the understanding that
the board could change the site any
time it wished.
The new schoolhouses are to be built
of brick. three or four stories high and
with capacity of accommodating be-
tween 700 and 800 pupils
The old school in the Second Ward
is to be for the primary grades.
1t has been the general impression
that only the High School grades were
to be housed in the new building, but
this idea is erroneous. All grades
above the primary and up to the senior
class in high school are to be put there
1t was also decided to arrange with
the Woman's Board of Trade for per-
mission to run an alley in the rear of
the Palace grounds, part Of which be-
long to the Board of Trade.
A letter from the Woman's Board of
Trade was read which stated that ru
NOR was going the rounds that the
WOman's Board of Trade opposed the
sale of the Fort Marcy lands. This
rumor was characterized as absolutely
untrue and that the organization in
dorsed the action of the school board
for the sale of the lands.
Arrangements for !. the Teachers
Normal Institute were then made. The
institute is to be held here, beginning
August 4. Arrangements are under
way whereby the county of Santa Fe
will cooperate with the City Board of
Education. Seventy-five dollars of the
funds necessary to pay the expenses
of the institute is now in the city
treasury.
The board then adjourned to meet
in regular meeting Monday evening
next.

No appraisal was made of the old
buildings situated within the reserva-
ton, but beg to state that there can
be found some good timber in some of
them which might be utilized with adj
vantage by your board in the construc-
ton of the new buildings.
No appraisement was either made
by the commission of the large frame
building situate within block 5 in view
of the fact that it thought advisable to
recommend that it be reserved from
sale and removed to the school ground
to be used by the children as a gymna-
SUM and recreation hall Respectfully
submitted.
