MENDOZA HELD
 WITHOUT BOND
Mexican Woman Tells Story of Alleged Crime As It Was
 Told to Her.
DOUGLAS. May s.-tspecLa

DOUGLAS. May Special l- Pedro Mendoza, charged by the lo cal authorities with. the murder oi Yrineo Orrantia, the Mexican whose dead body was picked up from the railroad track on Fourth street after 6 street car had run over it on the night of August g, 1905. was today held to the grand jury when given a preliminary hearing before Justice Ben Rice. He is committed without bond.
 The preliminary hearing this morn ing did not go far towards throw. ing any light on the supposed mur- der of Orrantis. The principal witness was Mendoza's paramour, Juana Lo- .pez. a Yaqui woman. Her story on the witness stand was that Mendoza had told of the murder of Orrantia He was waylsid by Mendoza and an other Mexican. known among his peo- pie as "Papinta" Spotted foot). ac- cording to the statement the Lopez woman today related as having been told her. After they had waylaid and robbed Orrantla, rendering him un- conscious, they took his body and laid it on the railroad track where. later. 1t was rendered lifeless when struck by passing street car.
 The story of the witness continued that the two men got $50 by their murder and with that amount they bought clothing in Douglas the follow ing day. ...
 This was the only evidence of con. sequence taken during the examina- tion r.
 Mendoza will be taken to Tomb stone tomorrow and incarcerated.

FAIR COMMISSION | PLAN THIRD FAIR
Announcement of Department Officers Proposed and
 Speed Program.

The territorial board of fair com
 missioners, T. E.. Pollock Of Flasstaf,
 B. A. Packard of Naco and Tempe,
 and J. C. Adams, os Phoenix, held a long session at Phoenix last Friday
 and accomplished a great deal of work
 toward getting things in order for the
 next territorial fair. Vernon L. Clark | having given up the position of secre- tary of the commission, C. B. Laird
 became the logical candidate and he was appointed. The next thing they did was to appoint the superintendents of departments as follows: Minerals, I Epes Randolph, Tucson; horse and mule, w. W. Cook, Phoenix: cattle, l A. c. Mcqueen, Mesa; swine, C. NJ.
 Baum, Phoenix; sheep and goat, H. J. Gray, Coeonino; poultry and pigeon, c. B. Wood. Phoenix: apiary, Wm.
 Rohrig. Tempe: dairy, Emory Rays. Phoenix; woman's department, needle work division. culinary division, art
 division, Mrs. w. C. Foster, Phoenix; educational, A. J. Matthews, Tempe: agricultural. V. A. Clark, Phoenix; speed, Shirley Christy.
 The question of livestock pavilion for the judging of livestock was dis 
 the construction of such a building. the commission is trying to devise some means for the building of one,
 as 1t Is deemed a very necessary thing
 in the proper handling of so large livestock show as will undoubtedly be
 seen this year
 The mining building is admittedly inadequate to the growing needs of that department but the commission has decided that by adding some. more shelving and rearTanging the exhibits it can be made to answer for one more season.
 Though the legislature did not make any appropriation for a building fund
 for the growing needs of the fair. 1t
 is nevertheless assured that the exhi-
 bition in all departments will be big Jger and better than ever bfeore. The Appropriation for maintenance and operation was increased from sT500 10 s1 15,006,. annually, and the gate re, ceipts are bound to be larger than
 ever before. With these resources the
 commission is blaming the greatest possible expansion and feels that though it would give good value for a few more thousand dollars, it will be
 able nevertheless to make some iIn- provements and offer a far greater at
 traction than ever before.
 In respect Of the livestock there is one thing exhibitors will be glad 10
 hear. That is that tho Hereford Live
 Stock association and the ShorThorn Live Stock association of the United States have offered to double any
 premium the fair commission may of-
 fer for any exhibit in their respective
 breeds of cattle. In the matter of racing the commis- sion proposes to take a step forward
 also There will be seven thousand
 dollar" pacing races and seven "thous-
 and dollar" trotting races. and numer-
 ous other races. for smaller purses. The classes for the thousand dollar" pacing races will be: Free-for-all, 2:05; 2:0s; PIP; 2:16: 2:20; 2:25. The class for the thousand dollar" btrotting races will be: Free-for- all,

ADMINISTRATION MEN PLANNING ID CONTROL Will Either Nominate President Roosevelt Or Man Pledged
 to His Policies.

WASHINGTON, D. C.. May 9.-Ad- uainistyation mea have been stuck dur. ing the past few days in an effort to ger some estimate of their strength for the great battle of next year that wsr land either President Roosevelt in the vhiSe house for another term or some other leader pledged to carry out the presidents policies.
 Thetr plan of campaign is to make strong showing in a number of states and thea depend upon the inn petus of this movement to sweep into camp the other delegations needed to give them absolute control. The sooner this showing is made the more assurea gili they be of success
 Ohio Is the pivotal state in this plan of battle and to bring the contest there 10 a head is the greatest concern of the administration forces. If Taft shows Himself as the victorious lead CT in the Ohio fight the presidential nomination will be handed over to him as his reward This is as President Roosevelt wants it, and with Taft de- nlandiag recognition at the next re- publican convention, with the solid Buckeye delegation behind him, no one else need apply for the admins traitor support.
 Roosevelt Awaits Taft's Sho1ino
 If lhe Ohio situation was cleared up there would be an end to talk of third term, or a second elective term and President Roosevelt would be ouC in another definite statement that he is not a candidate.
 But if Taft fails to capture Ohio and Senator Foraker carries the Buck eye primaries, there is to be a con- plete change of campaign by the ad- miniSerafion forces "Who is to be the standard bearer then2" Is a uues- tion that is sprrying all the wheel horses of the Roosevelt following.
 Hughes. Rect and Cortelyou have, been suggested. but there is by no niesHs any unaimity of opinion in the administration camp as to their avail. ability. New York Is not thought to be the section of the country from which the next presidential candidate is 10 come. Other states want chance and 1t would not be considered good politics to go to the Empire state again 50 soon after it has just had seven years or more at the white house. - Curs~sins Not of Presidential Size.
 Governor Cummins of Iowa while he Is recognized as of the simon pure variety of progressive and fully in sympathy with ali the presidents poll cies. Is hardly thought to be of presi- denttal size. He is being counted to some extent as the man for second place LaFoiiette. the most radical. faits to measure up to the mark, prin- cipally for the reason that President Roosevelt, while borrowing freely from the Wisconsin senator's ideas on legislation. does not like the Bad ger state statesman.
 The states in which the admins tratson wants to make it's preliminary showing are. New York, PeansyiTa- nia and West Virginia in the east; lSausas. Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri and Ohio in the middle west; Florida. Georgia and Alabama in the south, and Idaho in the far west They are not

Prison Structure Is steam Hea@ed and

 Damopolis, Jan. 25-(Special.) )--Ma- rengo County, always reaching NQut for the best of everything. is just now wearing a broad grin of satisfaction over the fact of having an -to-date' well ventilated and steam heated jail.
 The structure has just been complets ed and the county commissioners met in Linden 8 few days ago for the pur- pose of receiving 1t from the contrac- tor, and it is reported that there was not the slightest friction in the trans action, but. on the other hand. all tho commissioners expressed themselves as being highly pleased with the build ing.
 structure, into which no shoddy or in- ferior material or work was put.
 VIII S. Grant, Marengo County's young sheriff. has assumed charge or the office. Mir. Jackson retiring. Pre- vious to MT. Grants election. he serv- ed eight years as chief deputy to the sheriff of this county, and is. therefore. perfectly familiar with every duty per taIning to the office ,and says he en- ters with a determination % faithfully discharge every trust. He has called to his assistance as chief deputy, c. n Shields, of Vineland.
 According to the annual report of Mrs. Morris Stern. treasurer of thhe Knitted Charities of Demopolis, this or Ranization Is in a hourishins eondi- tion and speaks we'll for the charit- ably disposed citizens of Demopolis.
 It is the purpose of the organization to confine It's relief work exclusively to local objects. or as nearly so as pos' sibIe. It Is supported by mebership fees and donations, and has been the means of relieving much distress in De- mopolis since Its organization.
 The good people of Marengo County's capital are up in arms, against a move ment recently put on foot looking to the establishment of dispensary Tn that town. Speaking of the matter A few days ago. a prominent Linden ite said: "The opposition is wideawalxe, and if a dispensary Is established In linden 1t will be done over the protest of a large number of good citizens and the ladies of the town. 1t might in crease business. but that would not compensate for the evils resulting therefrom."

FOR DAPHNE SCHOOL LOCATE FACTORIES
pELEGATroN APPEARS BEFORE
 EDUCATIONAL COMMITTEES.
Bay n1inetfe Buri<s Animosity sad Jolns Forces With Baldwin County Town to Secure
 Normal College.

The Baldwin County towns of Bay Minette and Daphne have settled their ancient court house feud, and are now brother soldiers in the common cause of securing a normal school for Daphne. Bay MInette Is just as anx- ious to get the normal school as Daphne is itself.
 There are some prospects for Daphne to succeed in it's ambition, and if it doesn't 1t will not be for lack of aid from Bay Minette. Daphne and the county of Baldwin propose to do- nate to the State of Alabama the hand some building and grounds which once formed the site of the court house of Baldwin County. It Is neat bit of property, and well worth $30,00o. The county of Baldwin in return would have the State establish a school for the training of public school teachers for the common schools of Alabama.
 A delegation of leading citizens of Baldwin County appeared before the House Committec on Education yester- day and urged the establishment of the normal school at Daphne. In the dele gation were Probate Judge J. J. H. smith, ex-Probate Judge Charles smith; w. C. Dinwiddie; pr. J. A. B. Lovett, B. F. Bates and A. D Strong.
 Ii Is understood the delegation made strong showing before the iegisla- tive committee. The map of Alabama alone is a strong showing for the Daphne project. For the State of Ala hama has four normal schools, and not A single one of them is in South Ala hama. There is one in North Alabama one in East Alabama, one h West Ala bama. and one in Middle East Ala bama, but none in South Alabama.
 The dele egation argued the educational interests of the State had largely in- creased, and there was great demand for trained teachers than ever before in the history of Alabama It was ar pued that the demand for trained teachers was greater than the supply ana that South Alabama Is at dis' advantage with the remainder or the state in securing good teachers.
 The delegation is asking the Legisia- ture to make an annual appropriation If s4 GOO for the school. The town or Daphne and the county Of BaidWin will do the rest. In the meanwhile. Daphne ana nay Mtnette. which used to form armies 10 march on each other. are united in the effort to attain an object desired ps hoth. hut which. when 1t Is ootaineo' will ga to Daphne.
