The old fashioned "decapod" with the weight of 34s. 900 pounds sinks into history unnoticed and unknown and when the new loco motive appears upon the scene with its 45O, 900 pounds, or 25 tons more weight than the famous locomotive which when made a few months ago was chrouicled in the scientific papers as the largest locomotive ever con- structed. These new engines are tan dem-compound with 57-inch drivers. The wheel base is l9 feet g inches and inc total length of engine B feet Il inches. From the point of the pilot to the rear of the tank is Q distance of 66 feet. Eighty of these .locomo- tives in line would extend distance of mile.

A FAMILY FATALITY.
Twe Sea. sf tt killed wIthla . Psrsss ss
 Jwe Vears.

A fatality seems to be attending the well-known Harrison family of Wash ingtOn camp, Santa Cruz county. Richard Harrison, the son of Judge Harrison, and brother-in-law of Hon. D. G. Chalmers the speaker of the House of the Nineteenth legislature, who was killed by ;Jscry Sheehy last Friday near w Wsshington camp, is the second son of that family to meet a violent death ip the same locality within two years. ige
 A little less than two years ago an older son was killed at Washington by man by the name of Morgan, who is now serving twenty years at Yuma. eA
 The facts of the killing last Friday are not all known yet. It was report ed that it was the eliminating incident in a quarrel about some cattle. There is suspicion though that there was some other cause. Harrison and Sheehy had for several years been running mates. They. had been par ticularly chummy and had taken part in several escapades, and in one affair that could not be called an escapsde. It was an assault one day on Hon. Colin Cameron, whom they met on the range at Lochiel. They dismounted from their horses and pulling Mir. Cameron from his horse. beat him almost into insensibility. sl 8se
 The case was taken into the United States court and after 8 stubborn trial they were acquitted. Richard Harrison was the youngest member of the Harrison family.-Republican.

Statesmen and Politicians.

Mr.. Spooner and Mr.. Tillman indulged in
a little colloquy in the Senate yesterday
over the Crum case, from the press report
of which the following is taken:
Mr.. Tfllman then quoted a number Of
precedents in support of his position.
Among other utterances quoted were those
of Charles Sumner and John Sherman both
of whom the senator lauded. Mr.. Spooner
rose. L don't suppose, said Mr.. Tillman,
that the Senator from Wisconsin objects to
my eulogfZing members of his party?
No, replied Mr.. Spooner, but I can't
understand why he should wait until they
are dead "
Strangely enough, we find here the con-
servative senator from Wisconsin occupy
ing a radical attitude, and the radical
senator from South Carolina a conservative
attitude. Moreover, Mr.. Tillman was sup
ported by the dictum of the late Thomas b.
Reed, distinguished republican, who ex-
planned that no politician could become a
statesman until dead Ergo, it is not safe
or good politics to eulogiZe a member OF
the opposition party while he is above
ground. AS long he lives he should be
kept in position to be drafted and paraded
as a dangerous man and an awful example
al a moments notice. You may not need
him today. but you may tomorrow, and
when you do. you'll need him as badly as a
man sometimes does his pistol in Texas.
Mr.. Spooner spoke, of course, in banter.
Everybody understands the game. Public
men while alive and under fire are soothed
BY the reflection that the intensity of the
attacks Is often a promise of the hearth
ness of euogy after they are gone. No
man of his day was more constantly under
fire from the opposition than John Sherman.
He was dressed up for every Objectionable
part from the devil down. He never COM
planned, and but rarely explained. He left
all to time and the historian. grim man,
always in earnest, he yet had humor, and
he would greatly have enjoyed Mr.. Till
mans play of yesterday. AS Mr.. Sumner
had no humor it must be left to the imagi-
nation to try to picture his feelings in the
Inadequate
MIR. Spooner's proposition would mean
revolution in all our~forms of spirited cam
pagning, and Mr.. Tillman does well to re-
sist. Spare the politician and spoil the
contest. Let it not be done. In the name
of the glorious past and in the interests of
an enjoyable present and future, let US
move on in the paths indicated by the
fathers. What, indeed, would become of
the present opposition to Theodore Roose-
welt if any of his numerous friends and ad-
mirers among the democrats were free to
represent him as other than a man dan
gerous in office to the peace of the coun-
try? They are saving their praise of him
until he is gone. And they will not then
be niggardly of it, we may be sure.

bradford Again Names Miles.

GamaleI Bradford has returned to Bos-
ton and renews there the nomination he
made through The Star here Of General
Miles for President. He says:
General Miles would sweep the country
Gov Boutwell, thinks he could carry Massa-
chusetts He is the last of the great SOL
diers of the civil war, and his military rec
ord would appeal to just that element in
the country inflamed by the spirit the pres
ent administration has shown"
If General Miles can carry Massachusetts,
he Is the candidate the democrats are
looking for. Undoubtedly the democrat
who can do that as matters now stand can
sweep the country. But maybe it would be
well to support Governor Boutwell's opin-
ion on that point with the opinion of a
more practical, up-to-date politician. And
is it correct to say that General Miles ''is
the last of the great soldiers of the civil
war%' Are not John NJ. Scofield, Daniel E.
Sickles. Wesley NJ Merritt and some others

The Movement Against Thibet.

II there were any reliable means of COM
munication between the western world and
Ttnbet some very interesting news might
have ere now been received from Lhassa
the capital of that Isolated country. For
many years that trans-Himalayan region
has been regarded by England with grow
ing distrust as a buffer state. Russia has
been working steadily onward toward
Lhassa from eastern Turkestan and more
than one traveller with show of scientific
curiosity has penetrated into the suppos-
edly forbidden area with the later result of
the establishment of new lines of sympathy
between the car and the grand lama.
Accordingly with the Muscovite active in
Manchuria. dominant in Persia and threat
ening the rupture Of The DardaneIles 1t
occurred to England recently that it would
be we'll to take little military run up to
Lhassa and see what was doing. So a
convenient unpleaSautness having been re-
ported from the borders between a party
of English merchants and the soldiers of
the lama, an expedition was equipped for
a visit to Lhassa. Reports of the advance
have been extremely meager and unsatis-
factory. 1t has been regarded as fairly
certain. however. that the Thbetans would
resist the demands of the British govern
ment for redress Of grievances and for
the establishment of an English representa-
tive at Lhassa. The latest word comes
from Calcutta that the reports from the
expedition are that the Thibetans are likely
to show fight, and that the native priests
declare they will appeal to Russia If the
advance continue. Such an appeal-the
mere mention of its possibility suggesting
the already established lines of influence
between Lhassa and St. Petersburg-would
doubtless be promptly honOred by Russia.
Inc Trans-Caucasus railroad was in 1S3S
well extended toward the western border of
eastern Turkestan. ana was unquestionably
then headed for the Thibetan frontier.
Whether II has actually reached there by
this date is not matter Of common knowl-
edge. the Russian moves being carefully
guarded in that part of the world. but it is
known that the raj road IS in coed condition
for military purposes in any campaign
against northern India. The consequences
of this English expedition 10 Lhassa and
their bearing upon the general far eastern
question must be closely considered by any
student of the affairs Of the Cd world. for
il is not to be doupted that lereiu lies the
possible cause OF a sudden International
clash more significant even of world dis
order than an encounter between Russia
: nd japan in Korea.
