THE GOATS
AND THE SHEEP.

Treasurer Sheldons list of contribu-
tors to the republican campaign fund
affords adequate data from which to
effect a division OF the Roosevelt
sheep from the Roosevelt goats. says
the New York World.
The "malefacters of great wealth
, are obviously E. n. Hartman, who
gave nothing; JOHN D. Rockefeller,
who gave nothing; H H. Rogers, VINO
gave nothing; William Rockefeller.
who gave nothing; James Hazen
Hyde, who gave rothing; the beef
trust which gave nothing, and the
three great life insurance eompan-
les. which gave nothing. Four years
ago Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. Cortelyou
succeeded in extracting approximate
ly 100000 from these ubiquitous
sources of Ill gotten gains.
The honest business men" are
Charles P. Taft, who gave $4,000;
J. Pierpont Morgan, who gave $780,
600; Andrew Carnegie, who gave $780,
600; William Nelson Cromwell, who
gave $4,000; JACOB H, Schif, who
gave $4,000; Charles NJ. Schwab, who
gave s2,500 and scores OF other pa
triots who contributed sums varying
from $500 to $4,000. thereby testify
ing to their devotion to that Great
Noal Force which seeks ito control
law-defying wealth
To be sure. some of the honest
business men" were at a painful dis
advantage in rendering financial sup
port to the square deal. The act Of
congTess making it misdemeanor for
any officer or director of corporation
to contribute corporation money to a
national campaign fund dried up many
of the fountains Of political generosi-
ty. Even George ". Perkins will
falter in HIS devotion to exalted prin-
cipies when he has TO give his money
instead of money that belongs to the
policy-holders of a life insurance COM
pany.

.COURTLAND DISTRICT
| COMES TO THE FRONT
Solid Copper Camp That Has
the Ore and viii Be
Successful.

Too much cannot be said or print
ed about the new CORTLAND district,
north of Douglas anc we reproduce
the following concerning the new dis
trict from the FL Paso Mining Jour
nal:
"Courtland (generally known here
tofore as Leadville) is north from
Douglas, In Cochise county, and on
The excellent wagon road. The trip
is made In automobile in less than
three hours. 1t is 4 copper camp just
now apparently coming into its de.
serts, and for some weeks it has at
tracted the attention Of some of the
best mining men of the southwest
The indications at this camp are sim
lar to those at Bisbee in its cary
days. There is no tuwnsite there yet,
and the settlement consists of a mum
Der of tents in which the residents
live. There are numbers of small bus
mess houses, but there are no sa
looms, and residents say there SHAH
be none. The town is in a gulsh about
2 IL miles from the rev survey of the

RAYTIEH REBELS
HAVE UPPER HAND
Believed That Cause of PreSi-
dent Alexis Is Lost
For Good,

PORT AL PRINCE, Hayti, Dec. l.
Tie eXpectet battle between reyoi.i-
uonists and troops of the government,
which are entrenched a few miles out:
side the city, is likely to be deferred
for several days. '.-
General s mon, commander in chief
of the revolutionary forces, has de-
cided to attack Jacmel, which is thirty
miles southwest of this city, and is
the only town that remained loyal in
the department of the south, before
resuming his march on Port EAU
Prince. 1t is believed that the stun
ton, so far as the government is con-
cerned, is lost. Louis Borno, minis
ter of state, has handed in his resig-
nation and taken refuge in tie Ger
man legation. and there now remain
in Office only tdree high governmental
oficials-General Leconte, minister of
the interior, General LaIaleau, minis
ter of jostice and public instruction,
and General Marielin, minister of
finance and commerce. All other min.
isters resigned, with the exception of
General Ceiestin Cyria1ue, who after
his defeat by insurgents is believed to
have found refuge in one of the for
eign cohsulates.
. II is believed the intention of the
president in calling an extraordinary
session of the chambers Is to have
them name ais successor. ~PresideuI
Alexis fayors either of two cand dates
for Office, General Turenne Jean
GILES, and Scion Menos, distinguish
ed lawyer.
Three divisions of government
troops are entrencred at the cross
reads outside the city, and are being
depleted by numerous assertions. Cen
cTal Simon will enter Port Au Prince
probably without s:,ik'ng a blcy, and
it may be without causing disturb
aEce in the order of things, If Presi.
dent Alexis takes his departure before
the arrival Of the enemy. The situa-
Iion will be critical f the president
elects 10 remain.

THE CLANSMAKs'
FIRST VISIT HERE
Reconstruction Play Swept
Both South and North Like
a Cyclone.

The first visit to this vicinity of q
play that has swept both south ana
north like a cyclone Is an event OF
more than ordinary interest. The Or.
pheum Is fortunate in securing The
Clansman" for December 10th.
Both the company and the produc-
ton promised are Identical with those
seen in the leading theatres of New
York and Chicago.
None of the features that have
made The Clansman" so popular
the past three seasons is omitted.
| The Ku Klux Khan cavalry, the beau
tiful pictures of southern life and
scenery, the chivalric men, lovely
women and comedy darkies of tae re,
construction period, all will be there
The Clansman" is briefly the story
of how the descendants of the Scot.
fish clans, living in the South Caro-.
lima hill country, rose up in the year
] of 1867 and threw of tae carpetbag
ger yoke. Their agency in effecting
this result was the celebrated Ku
Klux Khan. The hero of the play,
Ben Cameron, is a leader of the Khan
His sweetheart, Elsie Stoneman, Is
the daughter of an Abolitionist, the
organizer of the hated Union League.
Here is the interplay of love and
hate, of passion and circumstance, in
which the dramatist delights.
Elsie's father puts forth every eff
fort to enforce negro domination, and
Ben as stoutly resists. The latter Is
arrested and clapped In Jail by the
scalawag white governor OF the state,
wao is egged on by the mulatto
lieutenant governor. Silas Lyack. A
federal court martial sentences Ben
to death. Elsie begs the lieutenant
governor to save him. The latter
says he viii If Elsie viii marry MIN
(the mulatto). Elsie faints at the
shocking proposal. Stoneman enters
and is maddened on learning what
his trusted protege Lynch has done.
He has encouraged Lynch about so
cal equality and indeed has told him
to go ahead and marry a white wo-
man; but when he learns Lynch wants
his own daughter, that Is another
story and his rage and disgust are be
yond bounds.
Yet Soneman and his daughter are
helpless in the hands of the mulatto.
1t is the Ku Kluy Khan who, headed
by the rescued Ben, surround the
house, make Lynch a prisoner and
free the old man and his daughter.
Stoneman at last sees his gigantic
mistake in trying to rule the country
by carpetbaggers and negroes and in
instill ng false ideas of social and DO
litical equality. He announces that
he will make yet another trip to
Washington to induce TIRE authorities
there to withdraw the federal troops
and allow the southern people to
manage their affairs in their own
way. Ben and Elsie are united. A
fairer day begins for that portion of
the stricken south, thanks to the high
purpose, steadfss st courage and heroic
achievements of the Ku Klux Khan,
AN invisible empire which within a
few months oyerspread a territory
larger than modern Europe, snatched
power out of defeat and death, and
tore the fruits of victory from twenty
million cungueroTs."

Southern Pacific to run from Pearce
TO Douglas. 1t is predicted by mining
men Of judgment that CORTLAND VIII
develop into one of the best mining,
camps of the section, simply because
il has so excellent a showing. C. o..
Ellis, the Douglas banker, stated the
other day that in seN eral places IN
the camp important lore bodies have
distances The new district is so
close to Douglas, the business of that
city must expand considerably as
CORTLAND increases In size and impor.
lance. Douglas people believe the
Southwestern will put In a line to
the new camp, especially now since
the Phelps-Dodge people have secur-
ed interests and ale working there.
At this time several hundred men
are reported working at the new
camp, and the belief is that the de
velopment will necessitate the EN-.
ploying Of several thousand soon, and
that production can begin within a
short time. Some OF the properties
already have considerable tonnage OF
excellent ore on their dumps.
The Leadville Mining company has
agreed to sell to the Calumet & Arr
iona company, through Col. L. w.
Powell, the Maid of Sunshine and the
King Solomon properties, for 100000,
with part payments as follows: Octo-
Der "a, 1908, $4,000; April, 1909, 500,
900; October, 1909, $4,000.
L. w. Powell took an option on a
group OF claims owned by r. M. KIN
ney and ]. H. Snidsr. price being $l2.'
900.
The c. & A. also secured an option
On Paul B. Warnekross' Poor Mans
property for $4,000.
The Copper Queen Mining company
has secured an option on the Brown
claims, 16 In number. for 100000, 10
per cent of which was paid on sign
ing the papers.
The Copper Queen company is pre-
pairing to start work on the Casey
group, which they control.
The C. & A. is pushing the develop
ment on the Germania, and have ex-
cellent showing. .
George cottrell recently gave an
option ON his Iron King property to
Frank Armstrong. Charles ConnelI
and Ed p. GrindsIl, all of Douglas,
and these people purpose pushing de
velopment. --
The Great Western company is de.
veioping the properties owned by
Young Brothers with gratifying re-
suits. Much fine ore is on the dump
and the bodies increase in size with
