 and surveyed. but 'tIc dates for sell
 ing lots has not yer been given out, and it was learned in Bisbee this week that the absence of Mir. Young. of the Great Western company. who is east. is causing delay in the matter of putting the lots on the market
 However. there are q great many peo-
 pie already figuring on starting bus
 mess there just as soon as the town site is available. Work on the mines in the Courtland district is proceeding
 without special incident it is esti- mated that about two hundred men are now on the payrolls of the Calu-
 met & Arizona, the Great Western company and the Copper Queen. So far there has been no discougaging feature anywhere in the mine work, so far as can be learned. and Court land Is still rated as camp which will iu the near future rival the best copper producers in Jne territory. The beginning of work hy jse Southern Pacific during the week on the exten- ton Of their line from Pearce to ConFt- land and Gleason. has resulted in add ed prominence for tho new camp and in the strengthening of faith in the future

 JIst what will he the result of the fight on Kibbey remains to be found out after il is over While Governor Kibbcy is known tO have some strong political enemies In his own party. it must not be forgotten that he has some very strong friends in the ter ritory and that he has all the influence which can be brought to bear on the senate by the president in the figh, which is coming up. It is claimed by Kibbey's friends that President Taft will recognize the appointment of Kibbey by Roosevelt and if the senate refuses to make the confirmation be fore the adjournment of the siXtieth congress that he will promptly again send his Damc to Tne senate.
 On the other hand those who are making a fight on tho confirmation are expecting that if it is not brought about before the adjournment of inc present congress that will be the end Of Kibbey as governor of Arizona ana that either Sturgcs or some other Ari- zona republican will be given the Job of directing the government of Ari- zona until the new state government shall be organized.

 GOOD CHANCE
 FOR GOVERNOR
Veteran War Horse of G. Q. P. and His Friends Leaving No Stone Unturned-PhaSeS of Situation.

DoitssssS. Ian. 23.-(Special) )-- ft is no 1onger any secet that a hght ia te be waged by strong repub- ihcan iui3aenecs ia Arizona against the confirmation in the senate of the recent appointment of Gov. Kibbey for a secoud term in She executive office in Arizona
 When fl was announced last month that President Roosevelt had reap pointed Kibbey to be governor of Ari- zona il was frightfGl shock to the friends of Col. sturges of Pima county, who was regarded as having the gov ernorsiip anchored for himself.
 This paper had a special dispatch from Tucson two weeks ago foreshad- owing a fight on the confirmation of Governor kibbey The appointment of Governor Kibbey by President Roose- welt for a second term before the ex- piration of his first term was some thing entirely unexpected and was an act outside of the usual course in fill- ing offices by the executive.
 No one was looking for an appoint ment to be made for governor of Ari- zona before the expiration of Kibbey's present term which ends next month.
 Sturoes to the Front
 The announcement or the departure of Gel Ssarges for Washington a few days ago raises the presumption that he mission of the colonel has to do with the light to be made on Govern or Kfbbey. II is reported in Tucson that a number Of afieavits have been forwarded from that city and Phoenix which will be presented to the sen ate committee on territories before The final confirmation of Kibbey is brought up for consideration Just what matters these afidavits cover has not been given out. but it is be lieyed that some of them refer to acts of Judge Kibbey years ago when he was judge in the territory.

 While there was seemingly a peace pact during the campaign last fall be- tween the factions of the republican party in this territory there seems to he q disposition to again dig up the political tomahawk and wield it more fiercely than ever in the fight for the offices which will he coming to Arizo- na republicans under the administra- ton of President Taft
 Few men have ever been appointed 10 the office Of governor in Arizona without a fight being made on their confirmation. It will be remembered than when Lewis Woilley was appoint ed governor in 1889 thsre was fight on his confirmation which tied it up in the senate for weeks. His confirm

HE first week Of "The Silent
~ Drama" at the Boyd has
proved the wisdom Of providing
A this sort of entertainment dur
NMSMNH ing the summer months The
A attendance has been steady and
large all week, and the patrons seem to
be well pleased with the splendid quality
of the pictures shown. and the comfort
and convenience Of the fine theater APP
peal TO all. 1t is the Boyd way of doing
things that makes the present under
taking so popular. The non-inflammable
films are but a few months known, and
are the very last work in the moving
picture world, and these are the only
ones used at the Boyd. This removes
every possibility OF fire or an explosion
in the machine. The machine used to pro-
tect the pictures is the very latest mode
and the flicker or din light that is so
trying at other shows is entirely absent
here. The seats are all on the lower
floor, OF easy access and the patrons may
cha in low tones and enjoy their stay
better than anywhere else in Omaha. A
complete new set Of films will be shown
at today's exhibition. and the regular
changes will be made during the week.
The sixth week OF the Burwood's most
novel and acceptable plan Of midsummer
entertainment will open this afternoon
with ar entirely new program from which
has been given during the last half Of the
week just closed. Three big vaudeville
numbers. the Kiltners. song and dance

No Troops Worn Out.
The statement 'Lawton wore out three
companies OF soldiers In making the cap
ture, and when each company was ex-
hausted he ordered Il back to the barracks
and Eot another IL not true In any par
ticulsr. Troop r OF the Fourth cavalry
started on this expedition on May 2, and
remained with the expedition until its close.
The company of infantry that left with
Captain Lawton on May 5 and took up the
tau on May 10 ceased work with the com
mand after May %.
The detachment Of Indian scouts under
Lieutenant Finley Of the Tenth cavalry,
who started on May 8, left the command
on June 26, as the term Of enlistments Of
the Indian scouts expired on June 90. The
Indian scouts under Lieutenant Brown, who
left Huachuca on June IS, remained with
the command until the close Of the expedl-
ton. The infantry detachment that left
on June Is and was taken charge OF by

reason.
Troop 3 OF the Fourth cavalry did most
Of their work on foot, leading their horses
behind them, and they remained with the
command from start to finish and had
very much the hardest work. but they
never became exhausted nor were ordered
back.
There were always officers with the COM
mand. The only detachment that had no
officer with II was the infantry detachment
which Joined Captain Lawton's command
on July s. Lieutenant Smith OF the Fourth
cavalry Joined the command at Cumpas on
July "a and remained with II until the end.
Lieutenant Walsh. who had Joined the
command on May 20. left II August 10 to
convey some sick soldiers and Indian scouts
back to Huachuca and rejoined before the
surrender.
Due credit has never been given to Lieu
tenant Wilder NOW lieutenant colonel and
inspector generaD for the part he played
in securing the surrender of Geronimo. II
was he who learned at Fronteras, about
the middle OF August, that the Indians
were attempting to make conditions with
the Mexicans. He had q conference with
the woman who was the go-between and
advised her to tell Geronimo not 70 at

the Information which enabled him to
bring Captain Lawton to this part Of the

commands into this part.

OF memory with me, but are taken from a
diary which 1 kept at the ime and wrote

Conclusions.

While 1t is never necessary 70 tell q lie,
1t Is not always wise to tell all the truth,
consequently many facts connected with
this campaign will probably never be
known; but this much 10 certain: First,
that LawtOn and Wood were not the only
men who endured the whole campaign;
second, water was not scarce nor did the
INA ever travel where there was no
shade nor grass visible; third, that the COM
mand was never without supplies; fourth,
that no company Of soldiers ever became
Exhausted and were ordered back to bar
racks for this reason; fifth, that no por-
ton Of Captain LRwton's command. except
Troop B of the Fourth cavalry, ever had q
fight with the Indians during the entire
campaign. and at this fight DR.. Wood was
not present; sixth, that DIR. Wood never
saw a hostile Indian from the time he
started until Geronimo came into Captain
Lawton's camp to talk surrender, and that
he never heard q shot fired at any hostile
Indians; seventh. that the nominal com
mand of a few soldiers Of infantry-travel-
