Democratic Judgment.

Holding court in railroad yard is a pleasure that must be experi- enced to be thoroughly apprecia- ted. Here in Nogales there are a number of switches just in front of the court house and last week ap- peared to be an exceptionally busy week in the local yards. Mingled with the questions and answers in the Black Mountain case were the toot-toot-toots and the choo-choo- choos of the switch engine and dozens of times each day 1t was necessary to stop proceedings for half a minute or for several min utes, when engines in front of the court house became exceptionally noisy and often the court reporter was compelled to hold up his hands as a signal to lawyers or witnesses to repeat questions or answers when the hub-bub of switching subsided sufficiently to permit him to hear. At times the proceedings were carried on with the assistance of hands funnelled over the ears to catch the sounds of the voices and often the dis courses of the opposing counsel were cut into by the screeching of the whistles and the hissing of the escaping steam. Nor did the final scene of the trial pass without in. terruption and the footing, chooing and hissing was irritatingly in evidence while Judge Doan was delivering his findings.
 The Santa Cruz county court house is a splendid building, but its location is mighty poor evil dence that good judgment is an ingredient in the makeup of some of the democratic leaders of Santa Cruz county. The site was select ed by a democratic board of sup ervisors.

 Last spring thcre was consider able gossip dcroqatory to the dignity of the American consular service at La Paz. An American negro, named BousHeld, who was in charge of the American coaling station on an island few miles out from the main land, died sud- denly and rumor said he was poisoned, though it was given out that he died of pneumonia. There was some ugly gossip that con- nected the name of the American vice consul, James Viosca, with the death of the negro, but both parties concerned being Americans the Mexican authorities made no great effort to get at the truth of the matter Rumor said there had been business relations be- tween the two men Mrs. Bousfield wrote to Washington, asking for an investigation. The result was ex- oneration of Mir. Viosca, who later resigned.
