Saturday, Erastus Brandt, a member
OF the Hagerstown board, was arrest
ed for assault and battery on Z. A.
Dixon, town marshall, street commits
sioner and constable of Hagerstown.
This morning in the circuit court
Brandt entered plea Of guilty and
Judge Fox fined him $40 and costs.
This municipal squabble was the re-
suit of a dispute engaged in between
the principals at the town board meet
ing last Monday. Brandt demanded a
road tax receipt of Dixon, in his Off
cial capacity Of street commissioner,
alleging that Dixon had promised to
give it to him providing he would
shovel dirt from road which was be-
ing widened on a steep hill. Brandt
claimed that he had done this work,
but that Dixon had refused to give
him his receipt.
Dixon then arose before the city
councilmen and told them that their
brother member had only worked fol
80 minutes and was not entitled to the
receipt. Dixon said that it took him
an entire day to complete the job
Brandt had left unfinished. Brandt de-
MED that he had only worked a hall
hour Words followed, then Brandt be
coming decidedly peeved, took a full
swing at the marshal-constable-st reet
commissioner, depositing him in hear
In one corner of the Hagerstown legiS
lative chamber. Dixon AYERS that at
ter he had been floored Brandt rushed
up to him and planted well directed
kick on his anatomy.

ty, despite the fact this is the home

The Watson meeting OF Wednesday
evening is being counted upon as a rec
ord breaker. 1t is expected the coli
scum will be filled to overlooking. Re-
ports were current on the streets today
that the Democrats are making an ef-
fort TO induce persons to remain away
from the meeting and were using per.
sonal leverage in the matter. The re-
port was not confirmed at Democratic
headquarters. Mr. Watson asks for a
fair hearing of his position upon labor
subjects in particular.

Reply of President.


My Dear Mr.. Grace: l thank you
fer your letter. I need hardly say that
/ take a peculiar interest in the men
who work on the railroads in this
country, and prize as one of the hon.
ors Of which am most proud the fact
that | am an honorary member of the
Brotherhood Of Locomotive Firemen.
Throughout my term of president,
now In its eighth year, have devoted
myself with especial interest to the
questions affecting labor The lasting
prosperity of this country rests upon
the welfare of the wage worker and the
welfare of the tiller OF the soil. My
greatest aim and desire have been to
do all that in me lies to advance their
interest. / wish to help them to get
the best out of their present positions;
! wish to help them make those posi-
tons permanently better, of perma-
nently greater Importance and reward.
mo consideration of party fealty or
personal friendship would induce me
to advise either former or workingman
to do anything that was not for his
permanent benefit. With this fact
lSeenly before me, earnestly advise all
workingmen, in their own interest as
worktngmen, but above all, as Ameri-
can citizens concerned in the honor and
prosperity of this great free republic,
to support Mr.. Taft for president; just
as advise all farmers business men
and men OF the professions.
Il do not believe the wage workers
of this country have ever had a better
friend in the White House than Mr..
Taft will prove to be- He has already
shown his faith by his deeds. In the
matter of the injunctions he issued he
was absolutely right, and the principles
he laid down in those injunctions have
since then been accepted by every
worthy leader of labor. and they are
embodied in the principles and prac-
ttces of all the railroad brotherhoods
OF the present day. The abuses of in
functions have been fearlessly exposed
and attacked by Mr.. Taft.
Seeks to Correct Abuses.
"He recognizes, as in my Judgment
all fair-minded men must recognize,
that again and again IN the past this
process has been used to the detriment
OF the wage-workers by certain judges.
He is doing and will continue to do
everything that can be done to do away
with these abuses. He will not make
vague promises impossible of fulfill
ment. He will actually and in good
faith try to secure action"

who have visited Patagonia during the
past few weeks. And those who came
did not sit around on the hotel porches
and leave on the next train, but in
every instance hired saddle horses and
spent several days riding about the
country, looking at mining claims.
They have come from eastern cities
and western cities. and if any of them
regretted their visit to Patagonia or
the rides through the mining districts
in the mountains. their satisfied eX-
pressions and commendatory remarks

during the next ten days two other
parties or eastern capitalists are ex-
pected to come to Patagonia TO look
over the mining field.
Several causes have combined dur
ing the past few months to attract
outside attention to the mining dis
tricts adjacent to Patagonia. The de-
velopment of the GrAhgo gold mine.
the extensive preparations of the Sa-
leros Mines company for the develop

big copper strike at the Four Metals

THE INDIANS RETURNING
TO THEIR RESERVATIONS
Leaving Mesa For Homes After Par
tlciPating in Inter- Tribal Meet al
Drew's Park.

After the close of the athletic
sports in the Inter Tribal Meet of
Pimas, Apaches, Papagos and Mari
copas held at Drew's park on Fri
day afternoon, and after the last
war whoop that signified the finish
ing of the war dance, which was
the closing event of the festivities
there, had been given and specta-
tors for the most part left the
grounds, the Indians then began the
preparation of the evening meal
Camp fires were built at intervals,
and the coffee, meat and other pro-
visions were prepared. The members
of the different tribes presented a
typical and picturesque appearance as
they sat silhouetted in the freight
partaking of the evening meal
Shortly after this was finished the
red men and their families slowly
wendell their way back to their re-
spective reservations.
One of the interesting events
which occurred here late in the af-
ternoon of Pioneer Day was that of
the races on Cuber street. Many
good horses were entered for the diff
ferent races and much interest was
shown in picking the winners. The
first race pulled off was n quarter
of a mile dash between II. f. Girls
mons horse. King" and a MeXicans
pony. The Crismon horse won easily
The second race was that between
''Dotard," owned by Commodore Pas
sey, and "ChappO." owned by Mr..
Porter. 'Dotard' winning the dash.
The distance in this race was the
same as that of the first. The next
scheduled event was n pony race,
free for ALL" in which a number
took part. The fourth and last race
was that between "Chappo" and an
animal which was owned by Mex
lean. Chappo walking off with the
honors. The races were spirited and
great crowds assembled to witness
the sporting event.
It is estimated that there were
"a thousand visiting spectators in
Mesa City yesterday from Phoenix,
Tempe and the surrounding country
The seating capacity of the grand
stand at Drew's park was inadequate
to accommodate more than about
ones sixth of the number of people
who gathered at the grounds to wit
ness the sports there While the
crowd was by far the largest that
has ever before assembled there. it
was peaceful and quiet, and no dis
.turbance of any kind occurred during
the day.
A delightful dance was given at the
Vance auditorium Friday night, many
of the visitors staying over to take
advantage of the opportunity to en-
joy dancing there. Splendid music
