the new state of Oklahoma brings
more business to the interior depart

The Goldfield Case.

Concerning the Vice Presidency. y.

Almost every day some new candi.
date is suggested for the vice pres
dency with Mr.. Bryan in the event
that he should be nominated by the
national convention. The latest one is
Mr.. Berry, state treasurer of Penn
sylvania, who was elected as dem
ocrat when the rest of the repub-
lican ticket went through smoothly
and by comfortable majorities. Mr..
Berry Is little known outside Of
Pennsylvania. On the first OF Febru-
airy banquet is to be held In Phil.
adelphia at which he will be intro
duced to the country. What he may
done politically in Pennsylvania may
put him In the ranks OF the men to
whom the second place On Lhe
national ticket may be given.
But here are the names OF the
other men who might justly be re-
garded as vice presidential nomi.
nees:
First OF all Gov John A. Johnson
Of Minnesota, his strength needs no
present explanation today.
Mr.. Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler of
New York. Mr.. Chanler proved him.
self a good vote getter in the state
which he now represents as lieu.
tenant governor. He suffers from a
lack Of wide acquaintance and from
present lack of newspaper sup
port. But personally he has shown
himself to be one of the most ear
nest workers in the cause of the
people. and one OF the most loyal
democrats in New York. He happened
to be elected on the Independent
league ticket, but that does not affect
his standing with the democratic
party nationally.
Representative William Sulzer has
at least twice been a vice presi.
dental possibility. He has at least
three times been candidate for gov
ernor OF New York. and IL he had
been nominated in 1906. most people
who know New York politics think
he would have been elected. What
Mr.. Sulzer may be able to do In
the convention at Denver. no one ex.
cept the delegates can tell. but
there is no democrat who deserves
better of the party than he does
There is none who could get more
votes as a candidate for vice pres
ident than he.
The man closest to Mr., Bryan In
the early days of the present dem
ocratic campaign was Fred Williams.
Is he to be ignored? A man close to
Mr.. Bryan today, is Gov. Warfleld
Of Maryland. Shall he be forgotten? :?
Is 1t not possible that Virginia might
offer candidate in the person OF
Harry St George Tucker? Cannot

Mir E. A. Leopold of Denver, Colorado, has accepted a position with the mining and supply house of Roy & Titcomb. He will be the rate and estimate man in the min ing department, and having had much experience in this line before coming here he. will no doubt be quite an acquisition, 10 the already large force of experienced technical and office men in this famous es- tablishment. He is accompanied by his wife and already has gone to housekeeping in one of the O'Keefe flats on West street.
 The immigration officers report business very dull. Only four Chinamen have been arrested tried, and ordered deported this week, and no Japanese have come across at all, although there are many hundreds of them over in Sonora, Mexico. No Cinnamon have gone through in transit, and peace and quiet seem to reign supreme all along the border.
 The bill recently introduced by Delegate Mark Smith to give the Santa Cruz Courts jurisdiction in the cases of the &ogales property owners against the government for damages incurred in the widening of the International line is causin g much approval here. For years the court of claims at Washington D. c. had these cases before it but finally decided they had no juris- diction in the matter. If the bill passes and becomes law, the cases will come up before Judge Doan, and as the Judge is known for his broad decisions the interest ed litigants feel that justice will be done them should he have the op- portunity to try the cases.
