PHENOMENAL SHIPMENT (
 TOBACCO.

For the first time in the history of the tobacco business a shipment has been made in one order, to one con- cern, of a solid train of manufactured smoking tobacco.
 On March lst, the Norfolk & Vest ern Railroad started from Durham, N. O., train consisting of thirty cars, all loaded with Dukes Mixture, " the entire lot of tobacco being a pur- chase made by Messrs. Sprague, Warner & Co.,, wholesale grocers, of Chicago, III.
 Durham, where this tobacco is man. ufactured, is the famous tobacco town situated in the Golden tobacco belt of North Carolia. "Duke's Mixture" was named many years ago for J. B. Duke, the famous tobacco man, and it's enormous growth has made it his pet, and the greatest care is exercised in its manufacture. This shipment contains 2,SS0, 600 single packages of tobacco, and would furnish each male adult in the United States with five smokes each, or one package to each of the soldiers of the standing armies of the United States, England, France, Germany, Italy, Austria and Russia.
 This train has gone direct from Dur ham, N. O., to Chicago, Ill.,, and has attracted much attention en route, and will arrive in Chicago March 9th.

NO OPPOSITION NOW.

The Los Angeles Herald speaking of the political situation says that the nomination of President Roosevelt by exclamation was made a certainty, practically, by the action of the re- publican state committee of New York last Saturday. For several months prior to the meeting of that commit tee there had been vague rumors of formidable opposition to Ethe presi- dent on the part of prominent repub- lican leaders. Such opposition was reported as being in evidence among members of the state committee. The assertion was made with some assur- ance, in fact, that the committee would take no action calculated to commit the New York republicans to the nomination of the president.
 The resolutions adopted by the state committee, however, brush away the whole question of possible opposi- tion to the president in New York. The resolutions extol iu highest terms the character and the public service of Theodore Roosevelt. They declare that "his fidelity to the progressive principles of republicanism and his singleness of purpose in administering the affairs of government in the inter- est of the entire nation have con- mended him to all good citizens, without regard to party" Hence the declaration that i've pledge him our earnest support for the nomination, :" etc.
 The last vestige of opposition to the presidents nomination at Chi cago has vanished. Only in New York and Ohio have signs of such opposi- tion been conspicuous at any time, but even in those states the Roosevelt alignment is solid now. Present in- dicstions point to a nominaton almost without precedent in its unanimity. There could be no heartier endorse. ment of Theodore Roosevelt and his administration than will be implied by his nomination without opposition.
 With the question of the presi- dentisl nomination settled absolutely there is but little to do in preparation for the convention except the choos. ing of candidate for vice president. The platform to be adopted at Chi cago will be, substantially, a reitera tion of republican principles as em. bodied in the platforms of 1896 and 1900, with such addenda as present circumstances require.

Speaking of the question of joint statehood Washington correspondent of the Albuquerque Journal says: "It seems from remarks heard in the committee that this jointure of the four territories into two states is a we'll understood and planned policy of the administration, and that the pres ldent of the United States we'll un- derstands it, and while he does not advocate it openly, favors it.

sroDDARD's RESIGNATION.

Referring to the resignation of Sec retary Stoddard, the Arizona Enter prise says: Secretary Stoddard emerged from the contest with his accusers with flying colors, and has now exercised his American privilege of jumping his job. "
 The Republican says that Stoddard intended to resign a year ago, but on account of the charges against him preferred to wait until they were set tied, and could resign gracefully.
 The telegraphic reports from Wash ington all unite in saying that Stod; dard's resignation was presented as a result of the charges against him. That the resignation had a great big string attached to it, and if the charges were not substantiated this string was to be used in withdrawing the resignation. Senator Platt, more over, these dipatches state. pulled long and hard at this string last week, tC get the resignation back, but was in formed that it had already been de cided to accept it and notice of the acceptance was sent last Friday.
 The public is at liberty to believ, either the report of the Enterprise, tn, Republican, or the Washington cores pondents, or all of them as it likes.

The Santa Fe railroad has taken the initiative in the matter of providing specially equipped hospital cars on it's lines for the transportation of con- sumptiyes, and barring them out of the regular Pullmans. This sanitary measure will be generally approved by the travelling public. The practice of herding the sick in the same sleeper ing cars with the healthy which has been the rule hitherto on the trans continental railroads cannot be too strongly condemned. The action of the Santa Fe will probably force other companies to introduce a similar re- form in service.

Very Sad Accident.

An accident took place late Satur- day evening at the Gladstone mine, near McCabe which has cast feeling of gloom over the entire camp. Harry Fucitt, young man about 2 years of age, in reaching over the collar of the shaft to stick his candle holder in the timbers, in some manner lost his bal ance and plunged headlong to the bottom of the shaft, distance of about l85 eet, killing himself instant ly. The body was tenderly carried to the surface and brought to Prescott where Undertaken s. 4. Logan pre- pared the remains for shipment to the home of his parents in Bakersfield, California.
 As mark of the high esteem in which he was held in the camp and also in the Miners union, of which he was an honored member, a special lrain was run into Prescott from Mc- CaDe this morning and ST members of the McCabe union besides twenty or thirty others, came in to attend the funeral services over the remains. The regular services of the Miners union were held at Logan's undsrtak- ing parlors, after which the remains were escorted to the train and started on the sad journey to his old ;home.

His Fall Was Fatal.

Charles Lauer, the we'll known painter and paper hanger, who has re- sided in Prescott for about ten years, died yesterday from the effects of his fall down stairway last week, men, tion of which was made exclusively in the Journal Miner. While his injuries were painful they were not considered at all serious at first. The principal injury was on his right temple and bis eye became very much swollen. On Saturday, bis condition grew worse, and his face swelled to such an extent as to close both eyes. He became un- conscious Saturday night and con- tinued to grow worse until death oc- cured at 3:3O on Sunday afternoon.
 Deceased was an industrious and honest man, and good faithful work. man. He was about 54 years old.
 He was a member of the Toughs hose company and was one of the most enthusiastic fireman in the depart ment. He never missed a fire or 8 meeting of his company if in town and able to go. No matter what sort ol weather, wet or dry, cold or warm, "Cherley" Lauer could always be found with the company at a fire. The only known relative living is a sister at Springfield, Illinois, who was noti. fled by telegraph yesterday of hi: death, and funeral arrangements were delayed pending an answer from her.
 A telegram was received this after. noon from her advising burial here, and the funeral will accordingly take place on Tuesday afternoon at four o'clock under the auspices of the woodmen's lodge, of which he was a member. The fremen will also at- tend the funeral.
 Deceased was insured for 5000 in the Woodmen's order.
