minary to the trial OF other
bribery graft cases, called from
the calendar: "The people VS..
Eugene E. Schmitz. District
attorney Langdon and attorney
Fairall answered in unison,
Ready"
Judge Dunno inquired of Mr..
LangdOn whether it was his pres
ent intention to proceed with
the trial of the other four extOr-
tion cases against Schmitz. The
district attorney replied that
there were SO many other graft
cases on the calendars that he
was unable to say. But" he
concluded, 1.-THE prosecution has
no objection to the passing OF
sentence at this time"

Rains Have Set h.


The rainy season has actually
arrived. During the week great
clouds have made their daily ap-
pearance over the Sacramento
range and in many sections rains
have fallen. This means no more
irrigation for two months or
more, and beans, cabbage alfalfa,
corn, sorghum, and all crops will
get hump on and grow like
weeds. Italso means cooler days,
in fact the back bone Of summer
has been broken and from hence
we will have cooler weather, less
dust and generally more pleas
ant climate.
This is a great climate, any.
way. All our nights are cool
and sleep is enjoyed the year
round.

ChIhuahuIta Absolutely Clean.

Luis Hill was deputized as health
officer for Chihuahuita (Mexican
town Of Alamogordo) and went to
work in earnest systematic way
to have that part of town put in a
sanitary condition. Wednesday
morning Health Officer Kirkpatrick
went on an inspection of Chihua-
huita and on his return said to the
Alamogordo News that that part
of town was absolutely clean, and
it was done within a few days and
the authorities only had to prefer
charges against one resident, who
was fined $500 and costs.
The next thing for Kirkpatrick to
do is to inspect Alamogordo (bus-
mess and residence section) and he
says every one who fails to comply
with the order of the health author
tiles will be promptly dealt with.
This paper has ever contented
that the town could be put in a
sanitary condition and kept that
way. Just as soon as the author
tiles find party who will not obey
the sanitary law prefer charges
against him or them and Judge
Stalcup will show how effectively
the law works in such cases. 1t
can be done. 1t should be done,
and an officer who will not or can
not enforce the sanitary law should
resign his office and give some one
chance who may enforce the law.
The sanitary law works no hard
ship on anyone, and for that reason
we contend that the law must be
enforced.
A number of people are cleaning
up now. Officer humphrey has Civ
en- ten days in which to clean up
a very liberal time, indeed. We
should show Mr.. humphrey our ap-
probation of his liberality by hav-
ing our premises absolutely clean
when Kirkpatrick comes around.

Geronimo Would go on War
path,

Cache, Okla, July 9.-The old
Apache warrior, Geronimo, who
terrorized the southwest for many
years, while attending celebra'
tion at Cache, under patrol as
"a guest, attempted to escape
across the Texas panhandle into
New Mexico.
He was missed about eight
hours and the soldiers from Ft
Sill captured him yesterday.
The old warrior had heard ol
the troubles of the Apaches in
Arizona, and, according to re-
port, have threatened to go or
the warpath and wanted to helT
them fight.
He has been having domestic
troubles of late, his eigth wife
having left him, and recently nc
drank liquor to excess.
Recently Geronimo joined the
Dutch Reformed church, to which
President Roosevelt belongs, II

Scarlet Fever Over With.

By strict quarantine and close
watching scarlet fever has been
stamped out in AlamogOrdO.
We had only two cases, one a
Mexican child that died, the
other in B. F. Wooten's family.
The WoOten case was of light
form. We understand that only
one case now exists in Tularosa
and it is of a light form. One
case at Mescalero. Four out of
the five children of Capt. Sam
Miller of Mescalero have died
with it. While it is not time to
declare the disease entirely
stamped out in the county yet
it seems to have taken on a
milder form and can be more
easily handled. The authorities
should see that no chances are
taken for a further spread, as
the time to handle the disease
effectively and economically is
with the first cases, just as. was
done in Alamogordo.
The criticisms hurled at DR.
Kirkpatrick and other deputies
of the Board of Health to the
effect that the disease was not
scarlet fever, and that the
authorities worked the county
for fees don't mean anything.
Whether the disease was scarlet
fever or what it was very fata
and should have been quaran,
tined, and as to the great fee:
made by DR.. kirkpatrick ant
his deputies we have seen the
amounts charged against the
county and will say that they
seem to be exceptionally small
But, no matter what is done
some are ready to accuse graft
being the main point, and if oul
Board of Health save lives by
strict quarantine, killing 4th O.
July fun and the like, they are
entitled to all they can rightful
ly charge.

THE SENTENCE
OF SCHM|TZ
By Judge Dunno at San Francisco
was Dramatic and, in a Man
ner, Sensational.
FIVE Years in San Quentin.

O"h AAohNAoSOs Cui'iO uIJ O' III
sentencing Eugene Schmitz to
the penitentiary for five years
yesterday afternoon Judge Dunno
imposed the first of the numer-
Gus sentences that are expected
as result of the San Francisco
bribery Investigation.
Judge Dunno sentence d
Schmitz to Imprisonment at San
Quentin penitentiary, the sem
tence following his recent con-
viction for extorting $1175 from
French restaurant keepers of San
Francisco.
AS the last words of the SEN
tence fell from the judges lips
the great crowd that had stood
throughout the dramatic scene
sent up a tremendous cheer.
Good for you" shouted man
in the back of the room. His
ejaculation was echoed and re-
echoed by one and another and
several threw their hats into the
air. The greatest commotion
prevailed.
Attorney Farrall, of the de-
fense, raising his voice above
the din, called out to judge
Dunno, Your honor, this cheer
ing is very unseemingly occur
renee"
WELL retorted Dunno with
spirit, If we had a sheriff worthy
of the name it would be stopped
instantly"
Sheriff Thomas O'Neill was
standing inside the rail. He
turned to the court and protest
ed that nobody could have stop
ped that, your honor"
Special agent Burns ordered a
number of bailiffs to clear the
courtroom, but only few men
obeyed the order. The confu-
sion was heightened by num-
Der of newspaper photographers
exploding flashlights till the
room became filled with smoke
and the air was sitting.
The sentencing of the convict
ed mayor was in one respect
without parallel in the criminal
annals of San Francisco. Half a
dozen times the judge was inter
rupted by Schmitz, who protest
ed in strong words against the
delivery of a lecture" instead
of the pronouncement of judg-
ment. He accused the court Of
unnecessarily humiliating him
and giving an opportunity fol
further humiliation by reporting
his remarks to the press.

that he ought to be beginning
his day in court to answer to the
charge that he had attempted tc
to tamper with the jury which
convicted Schmitz.
Metson, restraining himself,
said he was ready to answer any
charge that was made against
him. Dunno warned Metsor
that another interruption would
provoke a Jail sentence for con

VIEWS At THE HAGUE,


ers.
VIEWS At THE HAGUE,
The Hague, July THE sem
timent of the delegates to the
conference regarding the ques-
tlon that has arisen between the
United States and Japan is that
the situation is unfortunate for
both countries, as the original
incident causing tension between
the two countries is dispropor-
tionate to the grave results which
may follow. The question, the
delegates think, is likely to
create a hostile atmosphere en-
dangering their reciprocal COM
merce to which the former friend
ly relations had opened a vast
field.
Although the sending of a fleet
by the United States to the Paci-
iic coast cannot be interpreted
as a threat, it is generally ad-
mitted here that such action
may give rise to dangerous pop
ular excitment which the admin
istration at Washington might
not be able to control.
The Spanish representatives
say that the United States has
now found a hard nut to crack.
The Russians remark that the
predictions of Witte that the
next war will be between Japan
and the United States is ap-
preaching realization.
The English, French and Japa-
nese delegates believe that both
governments-at Washington and
Tokio-sincerely wish to reach
an understanding and will not be
affected by jingoism.
Some of the Germans here are
of the opinion that the situation
may lead to an American Ger
man entente which will not pre-
vent the isolation of Germany,
but will be the strongest COM
pact against English supremacy
that could be made.
sAKAhOTo's FOOL TALK,
Toxic, July S.-The Hochi this
morning prints an interview with
Admiral Sakamoto, in which the
admiral is quoted as follows:
Should hostilities break out
between japan and America the
result would be indecisive, ow-
ing to a want of proper bases of
operations. Such bases as exist
are too far distant for practical
purposes. Even the nearest
bases, namely, the Pescadores,
Cavite and Manila, are at dis
tance of 600 miles from one an
other. Even if the Washington
government should decide on a
war, it is doubtful if the Amer
leans serving in the navy are
sufficiently patriotic to fight.
American naval officers are
brilliant figures at balls and So
cial gatherings, but they are
very deficient in professional
training and practice. 1t is too
much to expect a burning pa
triotism in the American naval
service in case of war with Japan.
1t is very likely that most Of the
crews would desert and leave
the ships"
