GENERAL SKATER.

There is a tradition, if 1t be no
 more, that General Shafter owedshis
 entry into the regular army at the
 close of the civil war. at an unusual ly high grade, to the statement of
 General Thomas that Colonel Shafter
 had the best drilled and disciplined
 volunteer regiment the Rock of
 Chickamauga" had ever seen. With
 that General Shafter sank into the
 unnoticed unnoticeability which was.
 in those years after the great strug.
 gle. the common lot of regular ofl-
 cers. He did not emerge from this
 discouraging condition until he vas
 chosen to lead all that there was
 available of the United States army
 from Florida to Cuba. Since hfs
 death. the question has been mooted
 how he came to be chosen for O im-
 portant a command, with % may seniors aspiring to it. and seniorS. too. 60 much better physically adapt. ed. to all appearance. for service iu the tropics. The general conclusion at the time was that. the general and the secretary of war being both of Michigan. the appointment went by favor. But the better opinion seems to be that he was the personal choico of General Miles. The fact, if ft bo fact. renders all the more curiou and interesting the difference bo. tween the two in front of Sanfiagu. But at any rate. and in spite of hia physical unfitnesses and infIrmfties. 1t is not seriously disputed that Gen. eral shafter did his work well.

THE LATEST PROTEST AGAINST pcANNED GOODS
HOUSE RAIDED BY
ARIZONA RANGERS
REvoLVERS, DYNAMITE AND IN
CENDIARY LITERATURE FOUND.
TWELVE MEN OF REVOLUTION
AIRY PARTY ARRESTED.

Douglas. Ariz.. September 4.-The cam
paign against the Mexican revolutionary
movement In this section, which has been
waged for several weeks eliminated this
evening when a body of Arizona rangers,
headed by Captain Rynning, raided a
house in an isolated section near the in
ternational line where meetings have been
held Revolvers. dynamite and incendiary
literature were found In the house. While
this search was being made, officers
about town arrested twelve men allowed
to be of the revolutionary party. They
will. it is declared, be prosecuted under
the neutrality law
Among the number are Abraham Sal
sido, an agltator who led the Morenci
strike a few years ago, and who was
later imprisoned. AS a result of these
arrests the authorities, it is said, have
received information that members of
the revolutionist junta in Douglas have
been expecting orders from Toronto 20
take up arms and enter Mexico. The
activity of the officers who have been
endeavoring to thwart the plans of agi-
tators here, 1t is learned. Is due to the
revelations of a West Indian, who came
here from Cananea to warn them that
the revolutionists we're planning an at
tack on all the towns on the border

FLETCHER PROCTOR
NAMED GOVERNOR
PLURALITY OVER PERclvAL w.
CLEMENT, INDEPENDENT IN
VERMONT ELECTION, MAY Ex-
cEED $1,000.

Montpelier, VT, September 4.-Fletch-
er D. Proctor of Proctor, son of United
States Senator Redfield Proctor, was
elected governor of Vermont today by a
large majority
The republican organization at 10 o'clock
tonight claims that his plurality over
Percival W. Clement of Rutland, the in
dependent, and democratic candidate,
would exceed 5000.
The normal republican plurality In Ver-
mont is about $1,000. Scattered returns re-
ceived from the two congressional dis
tricts of the state indicate that Repre-
sentative D. ]. Foster of Burlington, and
Kuttredge H. Haskins of Brattleboro,
both republicans, have been returned by
the usual large vote. Returns from 100
towns out of 246 show that the legisla-
+ure will be overwhelmingly republican.
The same towns gave total OIL lo.olo LOT
Proctor and 1876 for Clement. As the
contest two years ago was a straight one
between the two old parties, no compari-
son can be made with the vote cast at
that time Four years ago, when John
@. Mccullough. the regular republican
candidate for governor was opposed py
Clement, independent republican, ana ~

FIGHT CAUSES EXCITEMENT.
Gans-Nelson Contest Arouses Race
Feeling In Chicago.

Chicago September 4.-Violence, and in
one instance murder, was the result OF
the race excitement that developed while
the returns from the Gans-Nelson fight
were being received In Chicago last night.
The levee district was afiame with the
spirit of lawlessness that broke out at
frequent intervals as the partisans of
one or the other of the fighters yentured
an opinion.
In one case a drunken negro, over
hearing a remark from two others of his
own race that did not suit him. whipped
out revolver and killed one of them
and wounded the other.
In other parts of the city negroes were
the victims of bettors who had lost
money on Nelson. In South Chicago a
fight between blacks and whites resulted
in the severe beating of four negroes and
the arrest of forty men. In another in
stance. a negro on his way home was
pursued through the streets and attacked
as he fell exhausted on the steps of the
house where he is employed

before the National Irrigation congress
