OFFENDED WHEN
TOLD GUN WOULD
Be Cw0NF|SCATEO

Angelo Curcio. of 10 North Tenth
street, becoming the proud possessor
of a shotgun, desired to test its merits.
He set up a tin can in the middle OF
the street near his home and began to
blaze away at it. Plainclothesmen Con-
lon and Manger, Of the Fifth Precinct
station, thinking a riot was in progress,
hurried to the spot and arrested Curcio.
When arraigned in the Second Pre-
cinct Court today Judge Herr asked:
did you hit the target?"
you bet," replied Angelo, with a
grin.
ut was a good gum" said the court.
How much did you pay for it,"
"Six dollars" proudly answered
Angelo.
"We'll add five dollars to that" said
Judge Herr, land the gun will be con-
fiscated"
Angelo explained that he had thor
ouehly overhauled and cleaned the
gun, and that 1t was in perfect shape.
and did not need to be ''confiscated."
The real meaning of the word was ex-
planned. He left the court dejectedly,
minus the gun and the price Of the fine.

MARSHAL Is FIRM
 so Is 1HE BOARD
1t Is Probable That the Federal Offices Will Be Moved Out of the Court House.

Unless somebody backs down the | offices of the clerk of the supreme court and other offices of the federal
 government, the quarters for which
 are provided by the government will { be moved out of the court house. United States Marshal Daniels ar rived in town yesterday and had a further conference with the board of supervisors with reference to the order of the board increasing the rent of federal quarters in the court house from 5000 to s1100 a year. The mar shal, whose business it is to arrange for such quarters had previously de- clined to meet the raise, though it had been recommended by Chief Justice Kent. Later it was understood that the marshall would refer the matter to the department of justice without recommendation. But it appears that he holds his original position and he told the members of the board yester- days that he would not stand the raise.
 In the course of the afternoon he looked over the O'Nein building where the offices of the marshal were To- Cdteu DelOIe lieI ISlloNdl lo 1uCSoil'
 but no statement was made regarding
 his purpose to locate the federal of fees there.
 The members Of the board are just
 as firm in their position not to rent
 the rooms in the court house at the former figure for another year. The county has expended s10O for carpets and other improvements at the re- quest of federal officials during the
 last year and they want to see some
 of the money. beginning to come back.

not work great injury to the Repub-
 lie of Panama, but 1t certainly would
 have been a disaster to the United
 States and the canal project.
 As a result of the firm attitude E taken by the Washington govern
 ment, the Conservative party, now in power, has submitted to the will \ of the people as expressed in the
 municipal elections in June, and the
 July elections have but to confirm
 the selection of Domingo Obaldia, | the Liberal candidate for president. A wholesome respect for American
 warships and American marines will insure a peaceful transfer of the ad-
 ministration from one party to the Other-a thing that is rarely accomp- I lished in the smaller Latin American countries without trouble.
 ! The American government did not
 take part in the campaign by es- lpousing/ the cause of one party or
 the other. It merely declared that | it would see to it that there was a l free ballot and fair count, let the
 results be what they might. Panama I has two political parties, the Conser- vatives and the Liberals The issues between them are hay, the princi- pies which differentiate them are mythical. As a matter of fact the ] only practical difference is that
 which always exists between the "Ins" and the "Outs," and they
 stand for little else than the organ ized expression of a desire to control the treasury. The Liberals, it is true. stand for the doctrine of absolute di- vorce of church from state but that lis no longer a living issue. There l is no live question of foreign or in 'ternational policy at stake. The Liberals have been the Outs" but their victory this summer will soon put them in power Their lead CT, Senor Obaldia, will be president. If he is grateful he will be quite friendly to American interests. While the Americans did not espouse his cause, the administration of Presf- dent Amador was taking such vio- ent steps to insure the election of the Conservative candidate. Richardo Arias. that only an American de- mand for fair elections could secure the rights of the Liberals at the polls.
 Last NiHleT 1TeSlQcllI AnadOr took a vacation trip to Europe and the states. Before he left he gave out Ia statement in which he said that he was going to be neu- tral in the coming campaign. His natural course would have been to support Obaldia. But when he came back to the isthmus he began secret ly to give aid and encouragement to Arias. Gradually the Liberals learn ed of his political treachery and went to the officials of the United States on the isthmus with a pro test. The matter was looked into and the representations of the Lib erals were found to be correct In- timidation, treachery, and every sort of political trick possible to prevent the registration. of voters of the op- position had been resorted to. The Conservatives were proving them selves politicians at whose feet the worst corruptionists of the United States might sit and learn.
 At this juncture Jo c. S. Black burn, governor of the Canal Zone. went to the administration leaders headed by President Amador, and told them that every voter must have an opportunity to register. to vote, and to have his vote counted.
Arizona republican., 1908-07-14

In our own country we have abun- ldant opportunity to understand and appreciate the advantages of the
 party in power. in a legitimate fash ion. But in Panama the advantage is a hundred times greater. The total revenues of the government are about s2,5OO,O00. The republic, thanks to the U. s. for the ten mill lion dollars paid for Panama's inter- ests in the canal is out of debt. The United States has put up the money for the public Improvements that have been made in Panama and Colon therefore, the Panamanian adminis- tration can spend nearly the whole of the governmental receipts on of- fees for it's friends.
 Taking them by and large, the Panamanians are rather a sorry lot. They are revolutiOnists by habit, and are industrious in no other pursuit. Their political leaders look to the force of arms as the sustaining prin- ciple of parties and governments. The respect for law and legal insti- tutions which causes Americans to
  feats is incomprehensibIe to them. The only argument Governor Black burn could advance in favor of fair elections which had any force upon the administration leaders was the implied threat that battleships and marines would back up the American position. That was argument they could appreciate.
 The Panamanian is born with Q natural hankering for a political job. With all the great opportunities for employment afforded by the canal project, there are only a few dozen natives on the pay roll of the canal force, and they have nice easy jobs. The proud position of police patrol man appeals to the Panamanian pat riots soul. He will take it even with the restruction that he must not arrest an American except in un- usual cases. But when it comes to real work he is not an applicant for a job
 The policy of the American govern ment in the Canal Zone is to be very liberal with the Panama govern ment and the Panmanians. But there is a distinct line of demarca- tion between liberality and the con- eession of unwaranted favors. While every reasonable request is granted, the American government has given the Panamanians to understand that it will not countenance anything which will in the slightest degree interfere with the work of digging the canal In the eelction matter. II, lanc Cf ff.at 6 to the people of Panama that it will not permit isthmian politics to delay or endanger the Isthmian canal.

ITCHING HUMOR ON LITTLE BUY
His Hands were a Solid Mass, and Disease Spread All Over His Body
 In Four Days the Child was
 Entirely Cured-Mother Strongly
RECOMMENDS CUTICURA
 SOAP AND OINTMENT

"One day we noticed that our little boy was all broken out with itching sores. We first noticed it on his little hands. His hands were not as bad then, and we didn't think anything serious would result. But the next day we heard of the Cuticura Remedies being so good for itching sores, etc., that I thought 1 would get them. By this time the disease had spread all over his body, and his hands were nothing but a solid mass of this itching disease. I went to the drug store and purchased a box of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment, and that night I stripped my little boy and took the Cuticura Soap and lukewarm water and washed him well. Then I dried him with soft bath towel, and took the Cuticura Ointment and rubbed him thoroughly with it. I did this every evening before put him to bed and in three or four nights he was entirely cured. You have my permission to publish this because anybody who suf- fered as my baby did ought to know of the Cuticura Remedies. I will surely and gladly recommend the Cuticura Remedies, for they are a godsend to all suffering with skin diseases. Mrs. Frank Donahue, POS Fremont St., Kokomo, Ind, Sept. 16, 1907."
