DIVISION is FAVORED
BY BUSINESS MAN
OF CAPITAL CITY
Special to The Herald.


SACRAMENTO, March 11.-Morris
Brook, one of the leading business men
of Sacramento, discussing the question
of dividing the state said:
II am strongly in favor of state divi-
sion. / have been seriously considering
the proposition for a number of years,
and the more / think about il the more
convinced ] am that it will prove bene-
ficial to all concerned. The present
agitation, / trust, will result in bringing
about the desired change.
There is here a natural division, a
trade division and a division in thar
community Of interest that ought to
exist In every state that separates CAL
ifornia, and the line of 1t is the water
shed of the Tehachapi. On one side
the trade flows toward Los Angeles
and on the other toward San Fran
cisco.

A Man Named McAfee Shot Down
at His Own Door in Miami
Saturday Night.

Miami, situated thirty miles north
east Of Vinita on tie Frisco road was
the scene of foul murder last Satur-
day night at o'clock and no clue has
been obtained as to who committed
the deed.
From Dr. T. T. Winner who was In
Miami yesterday we got few of the
facts in the case. 1t seems that
man named McAfee who recently
came to that place from Galena, Kan
sas, was sitting up with his sick wife
and that about l o'clock in the night
there was knock at the door of his
home. He took his revolver and went
to the door and Immediately the
shooting began Four shots were fir
ed in all and McAfee staggered back
into the house aud fell dead with
bullet through his heart From let
ters found upon the person of McAfee
1T is believed that there is a woman
in the case. Word received from
places where McAfee formerly lived
state that ne bore a good reputation.
Officers at once went to work ON
the case and hope to have the assassin
In custoday in few days.
