not accept the candidacy Of any party.
DR.. Gregior Mendizabal, a former
senator, was nominated for the vice
presidency with Col De La Fuente.
Both have accepted The sphere of
influence of the Liberal Republicans
is confined largely to the capital The
party has no definite organization,
but consists chiefly Of the adherents
of group Of congressman who con-
stitute wing of the opposition in the
chamber of deputies to the Catholic
party.
Lively interest is centered in the
announcement Of the recall to Mex
leo Of General Porfrio Diaz. Coupled
with General Huerta's announcement
to the Mexican diplomats abroad that
the revolution finally has been sup
pressed, it has given rise to all sorts
of speculation, the chief Of which is
that the ex-president would be asked
to resume his place in the army so
that his services would be available
for the war council in event of gen.
eral outbreak of hostilities.
Many appear to see a connection
with the recall Of General Felix Diaz,
the recent visit to the capital of Cen
eral Geronimo Trevino and the invi-
tation to the aged ex-president to re-
turn. Meanwhile the war depart
ment is silent as to it's intentions.
General Porfrio Diaz has been on
the retired list for more than year.
General Diaz gave instructions that
the salary which the army regula-
tions accorded him as a retired off,
Ger should be distributed yearly as a
prize among the cadets in the Cha

REDMOND DECLARES ULSTER
AGITATION is RIDICULOUS

Cahirciveen, Ireland, Sept. 3d.
"Sir Edward Carson and his friends
have supplied the newspapers with
amusing silly-season copy which has
made the sea serpent pale into insig-
nifcance," said John E. Redmond, the
Irish Nationalist leader, replying to
an address of welcome here.
The Ulster provisional government,
he declared, would require many mil
lions of capical, would cut itself off
from the imperial government and
the Irish government, from old age
pensions and the benefits of the in
surance act, agriculture and public
works, from the operations of the
housing and land purchase acts, and
from the postoffice. No merchant
could draw legal check, give 2
legal receipt, or recover a debt out
side of Ulster.
"The whole thing is a gigantic and
preposterous absurdity,' he exclaim-
ed. at is meant merely for English
consumption. But the English people
are not fools nor towards They won't
be humbugged by talk about provis-
ional government nor intimidated by
the wooden muskets Of Uslter."
In a second speech Mr.. Redmond
declared that the home rulers had
been silent, law-abiding and orderly,
while their opponents had been
shrieking and boasting Of illegality
and melting to riot and bloodshed.
Knowing that the destruction of
the home rule bill would mean the
breakdown of the governments other
proposed reforms-Welsh disestab-
lishment and the abolition Of plural
voting-and would mean also the re-
storation of the veto of the house of
lords and the defeat of British DEM
ocracy for generation, he said. Il
was no wonder that Ireland maintain
ed an attitude Of self-restraint and
confidence,

Governors Uphold Unions.

who are not heartily in favor of trades
unionism were about as scarce as
hens teeth at the recent conference
of the national house of governors.
Miners in the Southern Colorado coal
fields were threatening to strike for
union recognition while the conference
was in session and talk of labor un-
ions was therefore timely. Governors
Stewart of Montana, Carey of Wy
oming, Hodges of Kansas and Chief
Clerk Kerr of the Utah executive S
office were asked if coal mining il
their states had been hampered be-
cause the miners were organized and
all answered in the negative.
"Unionism is one of the vital
forces of industrial development, and
one of the most humane agencies in
the world today" declared Governor
Stewart
Our coal miners have been organ
lied so long," said Governor Carey,
that | cannot remember when there
were any unorganized coal fields. Un-
ionism has not retarded coal mining
in Wyoming. 1t is one Of the biggest
assets the state has in regard to the
coal mining industry"
"Unionism has greatly helped Kan
sas," commented Governor Hodges
"and ! believe in it as thoroughly and
firmly as | believe in anything. Un-
ionism in Kansas has helped the state
and it has greatly protected and ben
Gifted the miner without harming in
the slightest the interests of the op-
orators"
"Our coal miners were organized
before we got statehood" declares
Chief Clerk Kerr, "and coal mining is
one of our biggest money-making ir-
dustries."

DAYS OUTPUT OVER
EVI,rrxy FrIInITC ANrn

FIFTY THOUSAND BARRELS
Los Angeles, Sept. 30.-Standard
Oil ,company's production for one day
last week exceeded $4,000 barrels. At
this rate, the company would be pro
ducing 100000 barrels a month, or
about one-sixth Of the total output
of the state. Although, of course,
this production Of the Standard is
unusual and due principally to the
output of the big gushers on the
McNee lease, one of which has been
doing 10000 barrels day, the big
company's average has been around
the $4,000 barrel figure for quite a
number of days, of late. This will
have quite telling effect, if contin-
ued for any length of time, but the
output of the gushers will probably
soon show the usual falling off, which
occurs after weeks heavy pro-
duction.
At the rate Of $4,000 barrels a day,
the Standard Oil company would be
producing more than any single field
in the state, with the exception of the
Midway and Coalinga., 1t would be
producing more than all the fields in
the vicinity Of Los Angeles combined,
which include Fullerton and Brea,
Whittier and Coyotes, Salt Lake, Los
Angeles field proper, and Santa
Paula. The output would be larger
that that of Kern river and McKitt-
rick combined and nearly double the
production of Lost Hills and Sunset
taken. together. @
The big company's output for last
month was estimated at around L.
100000 barrels, an6~at present, it is
undoubtedly yielding more than any
single concern in the world The runs
Of the company were nearly 100000
barrels last month, of which nearly
100000 barrels came from the Mid
way field.

considerable portion only as lessee
from H. M. Yerington. The dis
trict court permitted recovery for
damages to any of the land. This
has been held error by the supreme
court, which rules chat the plain
tiff could not recover for damage
to the land which he held only as
lessee, that right being in Yering-
ton the legal owner.
On the appeal the defendant also
assigned as error the allowing by
the lower court of leading questions
to the plaintiff by his own attor-
ney. The supreme court refers 10
this objection, but states that the
allowing OF improper leading ques-
.ions is not generally considered a
sufficient ground for reversal. The
court remarks, however, that ''the
allowing of these leading questions
was unfair and improper" The his
tory of this case is another proof
that lawsuits are always expensive
and very often fruitless of results.
