The Sonora R. R.

The roadbed of the Sonora R. R. between Nogales and Guaymas is rapidly becoming as good if not better than any railway of the same distance in the Republic of Mexico. Notwith- standing the rains In Sonora along the line of the railway, have recently been very heavy. the roadbed has sustained little damage and trains over the road are nearly always on time.
 In years past, during the rainy sea son, the Sonora railway sustained great loss on account of washouts aud pas sengers travelling over the road always went prepared to camp out if necess- ary.
 The change for the better has been brought about by Assistant General Manager J. A. Naugle and his able assistants. who each year iD crease their efforts for the betterment of the road, of same.
 The various positions on the road and in the various departments, from trainmaster down, under the assistant general manager, are filled by experience ed men who understand their busi ness and are constantly working for the wei fare of their company, at the same time doing all in their power to please the travelling public and those having business with the company.
 The Sonora railway is all right; so are those "ho represent 1t in Nogales and all along the line.

Mrs. Massey who was standing close to her husband was not injured and immediately called assistance.

UNBUILDING OF FENCE.
A Work Upon Which Deputy U. s
 MarShais Arc About to Enter

There will be some very extensive fence cutting in the southern part of the territory within a day or two. It will probably be begun today eff to- morrow. Ie was said at the office of the U nited States marshal yesterday that the cutting would have been done before thls but for the fact that the deputy marshals stationed in the south ern part of the territory have been detained as witnesses in a case which has been pending at Tombstone.
 Last April complaint made in the United States court at Tucson that cattlemen living in that district had fenced great areas of the public do- main The complaint was heard and the fences wei e ordered removed. No tice was served on the cattlemen and all of them but one, Joseph Piskarski, proceeded to take the fences down. Pis- karski, who has about 1000 acres en- closed in the southern part of Santa Cruz county, paid no attention to the order and a few days ago the United States marshaPs office received an or der from the court to remove the fence. It is not only to be removed, but according to the order 1t is to be destroyed. The posts will be burned and the barbed wire, which cannot be annihilated by fire, will in some way be rendered worthless. The cost of re- moval and destruction will have to be paid by the obstinate owner.
 It is not known precisely how much of the fence there is, but it is estimated that its length Is from seven to thirteen miles.
 There is 2 great deal of the public land fenced in that part or the terri tory, but no complaint has been made yet against the others who maintain these unlawful enclosures. The con- plaints are usually made by ndjsce cent settlers who find the fences an incon- venience in getting about the country. --Phnnix Republic on July 2Sth.

Two Americans Killed.

A telegram dated Washington, D. O., July 22, says:-In answer to Act ing Secretary of State Loomis de mands for full informa tion respecting the killing of two Americans in Aguas Calientes, Mexico, Consul Kaiser at Mazatlan has telegraphed under last nights date as follows:
 "Americans telegraphed that Alcai- de Torres. nephew of General Torres, while intoxicated, went on business to Ways office, who requested him to re- turn when sober. Torres left and sent his subordinate to arrest Clarence Way and E=i. Latimer, but instead of arresting them they assassinated them. The governor promises me aid in a thorough investigation. The inform ation was verified by a second dispatch investigation Is in progress A dis patch IS in transit"
 Acting Secretary Loomis promptly telegraphed the consul to dispatch some responsible person immediately to Aguascalientes to make a full in quiry and report upon the assassina- tion. The place is remote and there IS ho consul nearer than Mazatlan.
 Clarence Way is well known in No gales, where in 1890 he was superin- tendent of the public schools. In 1898 he returned to the city and opened law offices. From here he went to the City of Mexico. His many friends in Nogales hope the United States gov ernment will see to i1 that his tragic death is investigated and those re- sponsible made to pay the penalty. When the United States gives it's citi- zens the protection they deserve. then will her citizens receive the respect abroad they are entitled to. From the above report it would appear Way and Latimer were brutally murdered by the direction of a drunken alcaide, who should be made to suffer

Circuit Judge.

ION the Sth of November next Judge
will be elected from the counties of Jeff
erson, Berkeley and Morgan. comprising
the 18th judicial circuit. The office is an
imp ortant one to every man WON an and
child within the counties, and to ltigants
who may be required to come into the
court of these counties. The present in
cumbent, Judge E. Boyd Faulkner. has
been nominated by his party. and the
Republican party through its regular
channel has announced that it will place
no nomination in the field against him !;
therefore, every Republican is feft to de-
termlne for himself for whom he will
vote for that office. Both newspapers
and voters are at liberty to settle this
question for themselves and to advise
others as to what il is best to do. Judge
Faulkner has been on the bench some
years; has had great experience, nobody
disputes: that he is an able, capable,
honest, just and impartial Judge; that he
has nosuperior as lawyer in the circuit !;
that as citizen he ranks with the best :.
that he is laborious. studious. painstaking
IN the investigation of cases, prompt in
the dispatch of business. and has saved
thousands of dollars to the state, counties
and litigents by his systematic arrange
ment of the docket and trial of cases,
and with it all, is courteous to LAWYERS.
suitors, witnesses. officers and all who
have anything to do in or about the
court Now, such being the case, why
should any Republican hesitate for one
moment vote for him. In several cir
cults of the state the Democrats have re-
fused to nominate against the Republican
nominee when good and experienced
men have been placed in nomination by
the Republicans. When a voter casts his
vote in this instance he knows exactly
what character of person he is voting
tor. There is no unknown quantity
about it.
We copy the above editorial from the
Martinsburg Herald, the leading Repub-
lican newspaper in this end of the state.
1t is PLAIN. frank, clear presentation Of
reasons why voters in this judicial circuit
should support Judge Faulkner. 1t is
gratifyingin these days of political excite
ment and antagonism to see that merit
and capacity in candidate is appreciated
not only by voters of his own party, but
by those of the oppositionias well.

% Sure of Parker .

New York, Oct. 2o.-Urey Woodson,
secretary of the Democratic National
Committee. who said he was speaking for
the committee, today predicted the over
whelming election of Judge Parker to the
Presidency. He predicted that all the
doubtful States will be Democratic, and
also that some States called Republican
are doubtful. Secretary Woodson said |:
:" l have every confidence that Judge
Parker will be elected. ! have been here
100 days now. and | am ready to
announce from observation and what we
have received that am sure of Parker's
election. ''All the so-called doubtful
States will be in the Democratic column
and many of the States called purely Re-
publican are now in the doubtful column.
I'VE will carry New York, New Jersey,
Connecticut, Indiana. Maryland. West
Virginia. Idaho. Colorado. Utah and
Nevada. Illinois is doubtful. Ohio
even is doubtful. The big men who con-
troled that State are dead. The Repub-
licans assume they are going to win there,
but we hear they might lose. Even Cali
fornia has sent good reports to us, and
we are hopeful of carrying that State.
Maryland is certainly as Democratic as
Kentucky. West Virginia is as sure as
MARYLAND.

its last issue IN the way of handsomely
illustrated and exceedingly interesting
edition of thirty-seven pages. The CIti-

Baughman, who was its editor up to 1872,
we recollect seeing once-o on the occasion
of his being banished from his home and
sent through the line to the South, on
account of his outspoken Southern sym
pathies. The present publishers, Col. L.
Victor and Mr.. J. VIM. Baughman, have
conducted the paper since 1872. with sig
nal ability. Col. Victor Baughman is es-
pecially well known in Charles Town,

who hope to see him chosen next Cover
