TO FIX
 LEGISLATURE
Anti-Hunt Democrats Seek to Control Next Session by Again Downing Ad- ministration; Cunniff Is Marked for Slaughter

Now that the opponents of the administration have won what they claim to be a victory, and have gain ed again the control of the demo cratic party, they are planning addi- tional meanness with which to em- barrass the ins and to provide cam paign thunder for their opponents The special species of deviltry that they are now up to is an organiza tion of the legislature for the special session which many expect to be called in February or March, upon lines exactly suited to themselves and which will forever put an eff fectual ban upon certain classes ot legislation such as marked the pre- Vious sessions.
 In order to do this it is necessary first to get rid of one Michael Glenn Cunniff. erstwhile president Of the senate, who it is claimed is not a legislature of the give and take vari- eUy, but who would have it all, in cluding the glory, to the distaste Of other glory hunters. In order to dc this the prejudice of COchise county Yavapai is to be used by the very fellows who so heartlessly rolled on Cochise at the recent meeting.
 H H. Linney, a safe democrat, Is to be run against Bradner for the speakership of the house. Linney is an able young attorney who was al the head of several important com mittees during the last session. Brad ner is asserted by some to be dis qualified from sitting for that dear Cochise" on account of his being secretary of the live stock sanitary board With Linney in the chaiI Yavapai will be well represented 1T the organization of the legislatures and then the Cochiseites will be ap- preached with, Say do you want Cochise to boss both houses, they have the house already, give some body else a chance in the senate Whats the matter with Judge Hecht- man of Gila, he's from the south west" and then it will be done.
 This is the tentative plan as out lined at this tine. By the time the legislature meets however, some ot the organizing kids may see a light

Frank Wigfell, Who As saulted Aged Woman, Is Overpowered in Peniten- tiary and Hung From the Balcony Railing
WHILE CITIZEN MOB
 CLAMORS FOR HIM
He Had Been Taken From County Jail to. State h. stitutiOn to Save His Life and Felt Safe in Joking About Crime
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH1

RAWLING, Wyo, oct. "Details of the lynching today of Frank Wigfell, negro assailant of Mrs. Ester Higgins, aged 7S, known as the prisoners friend" by cOnvicts in the state peni- tentiary here while Sheriff Mills at the county jail was holding off a party of wou1d-be citizen lynchers may nev- CT be known. The sinister threat, the first man that squeals is the next man hung" silenced all the convicts and guards examined today by the coro- ner's jury. The jury gave up the test late this afternoon. All the jury learn ed was what it knew before.
 On the way to breakfast this morn ing, WigfelI tested about his attack upon Mrs Higgins. Wigfell was brought here for safe keeping late yes terday after his capture at Fort Steel.
 Early this morning citizens sur rounded the jail and were still parlying with the wardens at breakfast time, for WfgfelTs surrender into their hands.
 The sheriff at the county jail just saved Wigfelrs life by slipping out of the rear door and lodging him in the state penitentiary, so the negro felt safe in testing about his crime before the convicts At breakfast the other prisoners, many of whom remembered acts of kindness of Granny Higgins, organized by signals.
 After breakfast they caught the ne gro before his cell guard could lock him in his cell, showed the guard into +bo coll opd turned the lock on him. They then produced rope, took half hitch around the negro's neck and tossed him over the rails of the bal conv of the cell house The convicts then marched back to work WigfelFs s attack upon Mrs. Higgins was partic- ularly brutal.

IHARRIMAN FUND ALSO MENTIONED
Senators Clapp, Pomerene and Dixon Have Spirited Encounters When Latter Charges Roosevelt N ot Getting Square Deal
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArCH1

WASHINGTON, Oct -Four con tributiOns of one hundred thousand each from John D. Archbold, of the Standard oil company, J. P Morgan and company, H. C. Prick and George J. Gould, was made to the republican national campaign fund in 1904 ac- COrding to records of the late Cornell us N. Bliss, which passed through the hands of George N. Sheldon, treasurer of the 1908 republican committee, who testified today before the senate com mittee Investigating campaign expen- ditures. Sheldon said Bliss gave him a detailed statement in 1904 of the funds and that he needed, these large contributions" He further said that he was positive that no record ap- peared of the one hundred thousand dollar Archbold contribution having been returned. With equal positive ness he swore the records showed the disputed F. H. Hartman fund of S240,- 900 had been received by Bliss for the New York republican state com mittee headed by B. B. Odell, Jr.
 That fund of two hundred and forty thousand dollars was raised at request entirely. The Bliss records showed it was entirely apart from the funds spent by the national commit tee" said Sheldon Sheldon's state ments were made during a full on a day of wrangling between Senator Dixon, Roosevelts present campaign manager and members of the senate committee. Dixon charged the com mittee with concentrating it's activities upon the Roosevelt funds, ignoring the financial activities in behalf of all Oth- CT candidates, republican and democrat alike. The committee members heat edly denied this declaring the arrange ments for the investigation men left entirely in the hands of Chairman CIapp. a strong supporter of the pro- gressive national candidate and that managers of all candidates had been subpoenaed. J. P. Morgan will appear before the investigating committee to- morrow to be questioned as to his fi- nancial participation in 1904 and other national campaigns.
 Based demands made by Senator Dixon today, Charles P Taft, may be called to testify as to his contributions this year in spport of the presidents S campaign for renomination. Dixon declared he had heard the presidents brother spent s600,000.
 The published statements of Wilson and La Toilette, that they did not re- ceive the $7O,O0O contribution of Chas. R. Crane, testified to yesterday by E. H. Hooker, will result in calling Crane as a witness at an early date. Dixon demanded as soon as he took the stand and repeatedly throughout his testf- mOny that the committee examine be fore election" every one who handled funds. or might have contributed to the pre- convention campaign of Taft, Wilson, Underwood, Harmon, Clark and La Toilette.

William E. Smythe Speaks Before National Irriga- tion Congress Giving Many Views; Several Governors Also Talk
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH1

SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 2.-Gov- ernors of western states and foreign delegates were the speakers at the afternoon session of the Twentieth International Irrigation Congress- Two more cities entered the already crowded field as bidders for next years meeting of congress. Invita- tions to meet at Mobile, Ala, and h. dianapolis, were presented to the congress by business and commer- cial organizations of those cities. Vim. F. Smythe delivered the princi- pal address today. Governor William Spry of Utah, Governor Tasker l.. Oddie of Nevada, former Governor Arthur L. Thomas of Utah, Norman N. Rankin, representing the Western Canadian Irrigation association of Alberta; Neil Nelson, trade commits sioner to America from New South Wales, Australia and representatives from Portugal, Guatamala, Finland, Brazil and Mexico were also among the speakers.
 MT. Smythe said in part:
 After an interval of tWenty-one years, the irrigation congress returns to it's birthplace covered with laurels of achievement. Its name and it's work belong to the history of our times. Its direct accomplishment is very great, but the fruits of it's in fluence are wider than irrigation and comprehend the whole field of con- servation,, new one of the great civic ,Na sci. Nc vative movement, and several others of importance are the legitimate children of the irrigation congress.
 But we are not satisfied, and we ought not to be satisfied. What we have done in a material way is vastly important, yet it does not begin to meet the need of the nation Our real achievement is spiritual rather than material, for we have given the nation a principle which, carried tC it's logical conclusion, will keep il sweet and strong in the hour of peril
 'The principle is this: The people have the right to do for themselves collectively, that which is essentia to their welfare and happiness, but which they could not hope to do, in dividually.
 Tn the years that lie before us we must extend the application of this principle until no man or woman ir America who needs a home upon the land shall be unable to secure it. This cannot be done under existing laws It is only possible under a modern homestead policy, which shall meet conditions.
 We have but to adapt and en- large the land policy of Australia ant New Zealand to turn the tide from cities dangerously crowded to sur rounding areas dangerously vacant Only the nation is big enough for tho Fjob, and the doing of the job is, ir my judgment, the price of national safety and social peace"

Before adjourning, notice was given of special meeting of owners of class A land. to convene at two in the af- ternoOn. About thirty prior fighters met and chose as chairman, D. P. Jones, of Mesa. Christy appeared again and the same topics were thrashed over, that had occupied the morning meeting. Again it was found that no one wanted to be the goat in a test case before court. When all had been said that was uttered at the first ses- sion, and some of it several times over, the prior right men decided 10 wait with the others for a formal communi- cation from Secretary Fisher. In con clusion, Christy explained that a peti- tiOn for an injunction could not be granted under ten days allowed the opposition to file their answer and with a few appeals the case might be drawn out at great length-eYen as much as a year.
