THE REPUBLICAN SlTUATlON

What promised to be a sharp polit- ical contest, with outcome doubtful, between the territorial administration favoring an instructed delegation to the republican national convention, and the faction in the territory op- posed to instruction, has terminated in sweeping victory for the administra- ton supporters. lEvery county in the territory, with the exception of Giia, IS reported to have instructed dele gates to the Tucson convention to vote in favor of instructing the Arizona del esation to Chicago for President Roose- Welt. The only counties in which de- termiued contests were waged were Yavapai and Yuma, in both of which Governor Brodie's followers won not able victories.
 In Gila county the central commit tee used the discretion plainly given them by the call issued by the terri torial committee to appoint delegates to the territorial convention, in place of calling primaries. This gave rise to some dissatisfaction which would prob ably have quickly subsided had not two or three active spirits seeking po- litical prominence, by judiciors manip- ulation, succeeded in giving purpose and strength to the opposition. A call was issued for primary election, which was held on Saturday last, and delegates were chosen to county con vention, held in Globe on March l, a report of the proceedings being pub lished in this number of the SILVER BELT.
 Consequently, two delegations will go from this county to the Tucson convention. The question of which will be given seats in the convention will probably hinge upon the regular ity of the county central committees action in appointing delegates, and we understand the right of c. T. Martin to act as chairman or serve as a member of the committee will be attacked. The republican county convention of 1902, by resolution, designated the delegates to that convention to constitute the county central committee. Mir. Martin was not delegate to that convention, and it follows was not made commit teemsn by the aforesaid resolution, Upon the adjournment of the conven- tion, the central committee organized, and elected J. w. Wentworth, char. man, who, because of his place of res idence being at the farther end of the county, relinquished the place to Mir. Martin, who, according to the state ment of the secretary of the commit tee, F. NJ. Wood, was elected by the committee member of that body
 We have briefly indicated the evi- dence upon which the contest will be based. It is perhaps idle to speculate on what the credentials com nittee of the Tucson convention may do, but if there is any advantage as between the contestants, it would seem to lie with the Martin delegation, for the reason that they represent the majority fac tion of the republican party in Arizona, which will be supreme in the territo rial convention.

The London Chronicle says the Rus sians have taken the most remarkable secret precau tions for the provision ing of their troops. At intervals of about a quarter of mile along the greater part of the entire length of the Siberian railway stores of concentra. ted proteid food have been buried on each side of the line, each deposit be- ing enough to maintain a company said to be 290-for week. The posi- ton of these provisions is not known to the sergeants or captains, but only to the commandants, who have the informatioo in cipher.
 The Arizona Cattleman, published at Phoenix, says: "There seems to be a heap of trouble in store for the Tonto Basin road. The taxpayers don't take kindly to being taxed $1O0,OO0 for building a road for some corporation to utilize as a railroad bed.
