 A BUDDING POLlTlCIAN-Colonel C. II. Gray spent yesterday in the city making a strenuous journey in from his ranch a half mile from town, to dis cover what is going on in the political world. He said that without his knowledge or consent, the political leaders had seen it to elect him a de- legate to the convention that meets to- day. He is a true democrat who al
 ways answers to the call Of duty. He
 had heard of no opposition to Mark
 Smith but he knew the democratic pc culiarity and supposing there must be q scrap Of some kind on, he considered
 it his duty to find out. He spent the
 entire day to no purpose and went
 home at night disgusted with the in
 defensible harmony of the situation.
 An effort was made 10 induce him to
 run for sheriff but he said there was
 only one office he wanted. He had been
 waiting for that for twenty years. He
 says he wants to be the first governor
 of Arizona. elected by the people, and
 he is going to be it ic he has to wait fifty years longer.
 OPERATING UNDER DIFFICULT TiES-Lasaro Moreno is assisting in the dissipation of the general fear of an ear operation. He was operated upon Saturday for a bad abscess at a vital point and is recovering nicely.
 whereas if he hadn't had the operation he would certainly have died. How ever. the surgeon who was in charge ot the case. never again expects to oper- ate for the edihcation of just such an- other audience. Clinic rooms with cur ious students are not a circumstance to what was in this instance endured. It was found that there was not sufi- eient light in the room in which it was at first proposed to operate and the man was carried to an outer room of
 the adobe block at the southeast cor ner of First and Monroe streets. The room which is ordinarily used for a barber shop, has two doors and both had to be kept open. Mexicans. ne- groes. Indians and Americans. male and female, proceeded to crowd the screens Hf each door and every touch of the knife was followed with in. | closest attention if not the most com- prehensive understanding.
 OeERLE'S GREAT ROLEToo Oberle. the erstwhile Phoenix actor continues to chip out footholds in the ladder of fame. Constance Skinner. dramatic critic of the Los Angeles Fx- | amlner, is enthusiastic over Mir. Ober- Ie part of Jacob Engstrand in the ! play of Ghosts by Ibsen Of his work therein she makes these very kind re- marks: Il would go SO far as to say mat there IS no actor in America-Or ! anywhere else-who can play Jacob Engstrand as Mir. Oberle played it yes terday. The expression of cunning. of
 hypocritcal piety, of sly watchfulness or deViltry, that chased themselves
 across Engstrand's countenance as he spun his web around the unsuspectfne
 pastor, were an artistic joy to the be-
 holder. The transformation was com plete. It is the greatest performance
 MT. Oberle has given among several
 that truly deserve to be described as
 great. The subtlety with which he
 worked out the entire scheme of the
 carpenters oblique character was art in
 its modest sense-the nobility was Ob-
 erle's, the obliquity Engstrand's. MT. Oberle supplied the finishing touch, the
 touch which rounded out and complet-
 ed the finest performance seen on any
 stage in Los Angeles.
