LITTLE MEMO W|NS0R
IS ONE GRAND TALKER
He Addresses a Stupendous Audience
of 81 People at the City
of Tucson.

This is the way the Tucson Cit
izen views the congressional aspira-
tions Of one Mulford Winsor. to whom
the Citizen has applied the nickname
(some will say it is appropr'ote) of
Little Memo:
Have you ever followed Little
Memo through his series of wonder
ful adventures in the comic section
of any metropolitan daily? If not,
YOU have missed something The lit
tie fellow makes some marvellous
flights and sees many splendid things.
The halls of congress are wide open
To him; the senate is easily within
reach: the White House is not be
yond aspiration; even Mars and the
moon are possible. But while being
transported from one of these most
desirable places To another, surround
ed by all imaginable uxuries, Little
Memo always falls out of bed and
wakes up.
There is no necessary comparison
Of Mulford Winsor to either Little
Memo or the comic supplement in d
statement that such a rude awaken
ing was his last night. Winsor has
been in Tucson since Monday night
awaiting an Opportune moment to
make a speech. Last night when
there was no competition except a
dry goods opening to attract people
down town from their homes and
hold them for a few moments. Mr..
Winsor scheduled his address for the
city hall park and advertised il well.
Whether there were more or fewer
persons present when the address be-
gan. when il closed there were pres
ent by actual count only 81 Of Tue
sons $4,000 people. So disappointed
was the speaker that he announced
his intention to come back to Tucson
on some other occasion and make
an even more desperate effort To
prove an attraction"

WEAKNESS Of THE
DAM At AUSTIN, PA.
Family Now Residing Near Phoenix
Once Lived There and Left
Because of II.

a young gentleman who is a mem
ber of a family living on a ranch
near Phoenix, called at The Repub-
lican office yesterday to inquire if
there had been any later news from
the disaster at Austin, Pa, including
a list of the names of the dead. He
said he had many relatives living
there, for whose safety his family
is much concerned. Though he gave
his name TO The Republican he did
not care to have il published as his
criticisms on conditions there will
not now do any good and might
cause the family annoyance.
He said that the news from Austin
while very startling, was not on
second thought very surprising to his
family for it had moved from Aus
tin for no other reason than the
fear of such a catastrophe. He said
the dam had been regarded by many
as unsafe and strong in that belief
his father had moved west, selling
out his interests. He said there was
stated that the dam had never be
fore been topped by water.
on the contrary said the young
man. shortly after the dam was fin
ished, and before the cement had set
firmly, there was a raise in the
stream which flowed over the top of
the structure, making three breaks
in ii twelve feet from the top. IL
was condemned at the time and be-
came quite an issue locally but for
some reason the matter was hushed
I'D and II was popularity believed
that hush or graft money had some
thing to do with the matter. Any
how the cracks remained in evidence
and the more skeptical ones. such as
the family in question, moved away.
They are glad now that they did so.

LONDON, Oct. 1.-Out Of maza
OF conflicting rumors il is utterly i'm
possible to sift grain of truth con-
cerning the opening days of the
Turko-Italian war. 1t appears doubt
full whether there has been any real
occupation Of Tripoli, and it is prac-
ucally certain there has been no
bombardment by Italian ships. ItI
seems certain also that the reported
destruction of the Turkish fleet is
untrue. The only result of the first
three days hOstilities which can be
vouched for is the destruction of the
Turkish destroyers by the Duke Alb
bruzZis ships off Prevesa The Trip
oil cable is sealed and it is impossi-
BILE for the outside world to know
what is going on there. The Otto
man government clearly is not hur-
rying. The most significant news of
the day is the decision by the Turk
ish council to again appeal to the
powers and meanwhile suspend Of
fensive measures. Late tonight the
appeal had not reached the British
