Hudspeth of Crockett county. Al though he is only 27 years old, he is serving his second term as member of tue house He is an eloquent debater and takes the lead i'll all Legislation affecting the inter ests of the stoCkmen. He never went to school but a few months, and what education he has was obtained through his own efforts while working on the ranches of west Texas. He is q son of Capt. H. S. Hudspeth, vho was for many years sheriff of Bandera county, and while filling that office ran down and captured some of the most desperate criminals of the frontier country.
 Claude was born on a little COW ranch which his father owned. When years old he ran away from home and hired cut to a ranch1nan as goat herder. He worked as sheep and goat herder for several years and graduated into a full-hedged cowboy. He became an adept rider and roper. No bronco could buck him off He could shoot as we'll as he could ride. There is no cowboy prank that is unknown to him. His nerve was put to the test many times and was never found wanting.
 In 1895 Claude Hudspeth led select party of American cowboys into daring raid into Mexico. His brother, Street Hudspeth, was run ming the Big X ranch for Israel King in the state of Chihuahua. The Mexicans attempted to confis- cate the property. The cowboys, led by Street Hudspeth, resisted an attempt to oust them and a battle took place between them and Mex ican soldiers. The soldiers were driven off after a number had been killed and wounded. The attack was renewed and Street Hudspeth and Israel King were captured They were taken to Juarez and put in prison. King, being a delegate in the United States congress from New Mexico. gave bond in the sum of sIo .ooo in gold and was released from custody. Hudspeth was re- fused public trial, but was tried secretly, found guilty and sentenced to nine years in tbe sal, mines of Mexico. This practically meant d death sentence, as uo prisoner could live that long iu the mines

The TRANSPORT
SOLACE AGAIN

The naval transport Solace has again
been in the throes of dissatisfaction
among the crew. The Chronicle Of
august Is refers to an incident which
took place in Honolulu as follows:
If there is a more unpopular ship
of the United States Navy than the
transport Solace coming to this port
she has not yet been recorded. There
is more red tape in use ON the Solace
and more unnecessary folderol than on
the three-funneled battieship Ohio, the
famous Oregon. the armored cruiser
New York and all the rest of the Gov
vernment vessels which have occasion
ally in the past come in through the
Golden Gate. 1t is always the same
with the Solace. On her last previous
trip from the Orient, as will be re-
membered, one of the women passen-
gers, who did not seem to be quite
up to the social standing of some of
the officers, was Informed that she
could not enjoy the privileges of the
deck, and throughout the long passage
from Manila she was relegated to
small portion of the after-deck, al
though having saloon accommodations.
Her treatment later resulted in an
Investigation, in which correspondence
from President Roosevelt figured.
There was no saloon passenger rele-
gated to the after-deck on the voyage
just ended.
There was, however, some trouble
on the Solace. At Yokohama, where
the transport remained for Ave days.
many of the returning time-expired
men of the Navy, bound home from
the Far East, wished to go ashore
for their first visit at a japanese port.
Most of these men had not been paid
off for three months, and they asked
for at least a portion of their wages.
BY order of Commander Bull, 1t is
| said, they were given nothing until
| late that night, and those who then
| went ashore overstayed their leave.
| This resulted in many of them being
| Jailed on the trip to Honolulu, and all
| hands were furthermore denied shore
leave at Honolulu. In the meantime,
according to the men, the Solace fed
them badly. II have been on half q
dozen ships Of the Navy and never be-
fore kicked said one rosy-cheeke6

GRAND Jury CALLS
-FOUR LEGISLATORS

The Federal Grand Jury worked all
this forenoon. Numerous witnesses
were present, among them some from
the Hauula okolehao case, the kalihi
and Kona distilling cases, the Nebo
bigamy case, and others. The Kalihi
and Kona dist'lling cases were both
investigated, a. was shown when the
stills, which were the main exhibits,
were taken before the jury.
The principal excitement OF the
session was the calling of Senators
Acni, Hewitt and Paris and Represen'
tative Greenwich before the inquisi.
ton. All OF these hail from Kau and
Kona, with the exception of Achi,
who, however, has large interests
there. The legislators were not de-
tanned before the Grand Jury very
long. District Attorney Breckons hay
ing arranged affairs 80 as to work as
little inconvenience as possible, but
their being summoned caused consid

GIVE SALEM A CITY CHARTER.

A bill has been introduced in both
branches OF the state Legislature for a
city caarter for Salem. The majority
Of the people OF Salem want il 10 pass.
and the majority should rule. Ii affects
only Salem. Way. saould the people of
that place not have a say in what sort
of government they snail have? Why
should the minority dictate TO the ma
iority! Let the people OF Salem nave
what they have so anSiously sought tie
past few years. Certainly they are not
to be Disseminated against, since they
furnish all the requirements of the state
laws on tne subject. Accord to taem
their rights Just as they are accorded
to other communities of the state.
Place in thsir hands the same opportuni-
ties, the same privileges, tne same
powers, the same advancements that
other communities of possibly less size
have, or At least of equal size. and show
the same justice toward them. If they
want license, let them nave it. II they
do not want license, after they get a
city charter, it is up to them to say so,
and not people living in Psrkersburg or
some remote part of the state, or even in
Jarvisville, Bridgeport or Quiet Dell, or
any other place. And should they not
want license it is not within the power
of any of the places mentioned or any
other place for that matter to say they
must have license. Salem certainly
knows best what it wants. AMI We be-
lieve in salsm's being given caance to
nave what it wants, so long as nothing
more is wanted by that place than is
given to other places of equal size and
so long as its demands are not beyond
