SLEEPING man STRUCK
ON HEAD With AN AK
JOAQUIN RODRIGUEZ HAS A MAR
ROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH;
ASSAlLANT AT LARGE

Struck on the head by an AK in the
hands OF a comrade as he lay sleeping
in the tie camp in the Hot Springs
canyon, Joaquin Rodriguez, a laborel
received severe injuries early Sunday
morning. Juan Martinez, Rodriguez S
assailant, made his escape and has
not been arrested although Deputy
Sheriff Enrique Sena has secured the
country in an effort to locate him. Tile
speedy disappearance of the man
leads the officers TO believe that Mar
tinez believes he killed Rodriguez.
Both men are citizens of Mexica anl
it is thought Martinez has started for
the border.
Rodriguez is in the county Jail
where he is receiving treatment at
the hands of physician. His con.
dition is not serious although he has
long and ugly cut in his scalp. Ro
driguez says Martinez had been act
ing queerly toward him for some time
but he knows of no cause for ill feel.
ing. Martinez made his escape up the
canyon. The officers believe he is
making his way across the mountains
toward Santa Fe. They have in
structed the officials in the various
villages along the line to arrest him
upon sight. Deputy Sena tracked
Martinez as far as Trout Springs. He
was not notified until, several hours
had elapsed following the crime.

ROOSEVELT FOR THIRD TERM
EITHER THE COLONEL OR sENA-
TOR REyERIDcE WOULD BE
ELECTED PRESIDENT.
HE Is A LOYAL REPUBLICAN
WILL GIVE HIS SUPPORT TO THE
NOMINEE OF THE PARTY AT
COMING CONVENTION.

Lansing, Mich, Jan. 2.-Governol
Chase s. Osborn in statement here
today proposes that President Taft
and Senator La Toilette both with
draw as presidential candidates in ia
Vor of Theodore Roosevelt or ex-Sen
ator Albert ]. Beveridge The gov
ernor had prepared a speech to this
effect to be delivered in introducing
Senator La Toilette here. In view
of the fact that the senator missed
his train this morning Governor Os-
born authorized the use of the speech
as a statement of his views. Gov
ernor Osborne added:
"As between Taft and La Toilette
| am for Taft"
Governor Osborn criticized Senator
La Toilette as having take up those
things, which might be termed popu-
lar and that contained the least dan
ger to himself" He continued:
Right here let me say, SO that there
can be no misunderstanding about it
that If Senator La Toilette is nomin-
ated for president, which at this mo-
ment I hope he will not be, | will
give him my earnest and active sup
port and will request my friends
everywhere to support hi mwith earn
estness and devotion"
Governor Osborn's statement re-
ferred to suits brought some years
ago in Wisconsin by the democratic
administration against previous repub-
lican treasurers for interest on state
deposits which had not been turned
over to the state.
The story is that Senator Priletus
Sawyer offered to retain Senator La
Toilette as an attorney in the cases.
Senator La Follettes story is that
Senator Sawyer tried to bribe him.
But Senator Sawyer was never prose
cuted for bribery or cited for con-
tempt of court and nothing was done"
In conclusion the statement said:
I hope Senator La Toilette may be
retained in the United States senate
during his entire lifetime. If he is
made president his influence will be
over in eight years even if he is
elected for second term. If he stays
in the senate he will be on the fight
Ing line for uarter of century
yet. I do not believe he can be nom
mated for the presidency. l do not |
believe that he can be elected if he is
nominated.
"If he is really interested in pro-
sressive republicanism and in the well |
fare of the republican party, I pro-
pose that he withdraw as a candidate,
Join me in asking President Taft to
withdraw, and then permit the party |
10 settle upon Albert J. Beveridge or
Theodore Roosevelt as candidate
or president"
Although Senator La Toilette failed
o arrive in Lansing today, Governor
Osborn delivered his speech to the
'rowd assembled to hear the Wiscon-
lin leader.

ment of a new era and making the
Chinese year begin henceforth on the
same day as the year begins in most
other countries OF the word.

re-establish peace, to promote trade,
and to devote his entire energy to
the Chinese nation and help the peo-
pie to realize their aspirations. When
the Manchus had finally abdicated
and peace was restored to the nation
he would, he said, resign his provis-
ional office.
President Sun referred to the rela-
tions of China with foreign countries.
He expressed on behalf of the new re-
public the feeling of thankfulness that |
prevailed at the consistent neutrality |
of the foreign nations. He said that

viously existed would not appear in
the new China. The constitution of /
the republican cabinet will be an

II is expected that such a meeting
will be called before the. end of the
present year and that St. Paul's Will

coming the size of St. Paul's parish.

parish is supposed to contribute five

this way. The collections at the door
on Sundays for seats netted S2,66l.69.

| given by the people of the church
during the year netted total of 81

ing the year. the sum being taken from

Bowels are Basis

The careful mother, who watches
closely the physical peculiarities of
her children. will soon discover that
the most important thing in connec-

during sleep, irritability and a dozen

disorder
At the first sign of such disorder
give the child teaspoonful of DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin at night on
retiring and repeat the dose the fol-

that will scarcely be needed. You will
find that the child will recover its

Referring editorially to the selec-

as secretary of the Spokane, Wash
ington Chamber of Commerce. the
Spokesman Review of Spokane says:
TO fill the position of secretary Of
the Chamber of Commerce requires a
man mentally large, forceful, with
keen foresight, good initiative, and
plenty of energy and ability to carry
through what has once been under
taken.
Secretary R. J. Maclean has done
good and efficient work for the
Chamber of Commerce, for Spokane
and for the Inland Empire. and his
successor should be able to maintain
the high standard that has been set.
"All things being equal il is advi-
sable that a Spokane man be selected.
No one can be so thoroughly in
touch with conditions of Spokane
and the Inland Empire, or be more
in sympathy with the progress and
development Of this country than a
man who has lived here long enough
