SMITH REPUDIATED
BY FRIEND DUNBAR
(From Fridays Daily.)

PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. Ono de-
velopment in the Arizona political
situation for many months has been
received with more surprise than
the absolute reputation of Senator
Mark Smith by his old friend. John
o. Dunbar
Dunbar, who is now publishing 4
weekly paper at Phoenix, does not
approve the appointment OF Lewis
T. Carpenter as collector OF internal
revenue or OF Joe Dillon as United
States marshal He blames Smith
for both appointments and in his
weekly declares that the senator
stands no more chance OF reelection
than 4 dog with tallow legs stands
OF catching an asbestos rabbit in
the neither regions. Only John makes
it more emphatic than that.
For more than thirty-fve years
John Dunbar and Mark Smith have
been bosom friends. Dunbar's young
est son is named for Smith. That
same son was offered the position
OF Smiths private secretary when
Mark became senator Whenever
Smith came to Phoenix he stayed
At the Dunbar home. Hundreds of
red-hot editorials in defense OF Smith
have come from the trenchant pen
Gil OF John Dunbar
Now Dunbar says that Smith is
-,AI +La% La toad ~,
his friends, that he is a turncoat.
At one place in the latest issue of
his paper he declares that Smith
threw 4 sop to the Hunt element of
the Democratic party when he con-
scented to the appointment of Dillon
and Carpenter. Dunbar comments:
while under ordinary circum-
stances the bringing OF the Hunt
element TO his support would be
considered a clever political move
on the part of Smith. as things
stand today it will be fatal to him.
To begin with. the Hunt people will
not support Smith no matter how
much he cringes before them. And
in the second place. by bowling 70
the will of the administration. Smith
has alienated the support OF ninety
per cent of the men who have kept
him in public office for close to
thirty years. Staunch, stalwart
friends of Mark Smith were candi-
dates for both offices mentioned
and when he betrayed them and ap-
pointed men who have always been
his political enemies he forfeited
every hold he ever had upon the
men vino have always fought his po-
litical battles. At best Smith can
expect hut little support from the
Hunt faction and practically none
from the men who were formerly
his staunchest hackers. Political turn
coats never have and never will win
= battle"

DEATH ENDS FIFTY
YEARS OF SERVICE
From Thursdays Daily.)


WASHINGTON. Jan. 2S.--Thc
Senate adjourned for the day when
the death Of former Senator Cullom
was announced. The funeral will
be held Saturday from the Stale
House at Springfield. Ill.
Shelby Moore Culloms death end
ed fifty years OF continuous public
service that had made him a public
figure in American national life and
brought him into official relations
with every president from Abraham
Lincoln to Woodrow Wilson.
Andrew Jackson was president Of
the United States when Mr.. Cullom
was born in 1929 in the Elk Spring
valley Of Kentucky. near the Cum
berland.
Young Cullom. scraping together
the rudiments OF an education gained
by toiling over rough primeval
roads. became successfully 4 STU
dent at Mount Morris academy, 4
country school teacher and 4 law
yer, being admitted to the bar at
Springfield in 1885.
Cullom's career rs United States
Senator began in 1893, when he re
signed As governor and was elected
TO succeed Davis Davis. His serv-
ice in the Senate chamber was an
unbroken one for thirty years
five consecutive terms-a record ex-
celled only by two other men-Sen-
ator Allison OF Iowa and Senator
Morrill, OF Vermont. lie entered the
Senate in 1888, 4 spry, active man OF
81. He left it in 1913, a fading,
tottering man of 81, but with 4 brain
still bright and active.
Down through the administrations
of Cleveland, Harrison. Mckinley,
Roosevelt and Taft, he held impor-
tant chairmanShips when his party
was in power, finally that OF the
foreign relations committee. He had
been chairman OF the commission
which devised a form of government
for the Hawaiian islands after their
and had been chairman
OF the committee which first re-
ported a bill for the creation OF the
commerce commission.
During the last few years his
friends had seen him become 10
feeble that his voice in the Senate
chamber was not heard farther than
the clerks desk. His term ended
March 3, 1913, and he was appoint
ed chairman OF the Lincoln memorial
created by congress to
the erection OF the ST.
0OOOO0 memorial in this city. The
one wish expressed on his death
bed was that he might live to see
the completion OF the memorial TO
his old friends.

Ed Kendall. arrested As a sus-

from the city Jail later. without an
examination having been held. Moth
ing was found on his person to con-
meet him with the crime. while his
physical bearing did not resemble
that OF the real robber No other
arrests have been made to date. The
supposition of officers seems TO be
centered to the belief that the Ash
Fork and Puntenney robberies were
linked to that in this city.

LEE COUNTY ENDORSES
MANNING FOR GOVERNOR.

Bishopville, S. c., Aug. 13, 1914.
To the Democratic Voters Of South
Carolina:-
1t is a poor policy to split up our
votes among a great many candidates;
by doing so some man that the ma
jority does not want is apt to get a
plurality in the first race and so be
the candidate in the second race, when
as a matter of fact big majority of
people are opposed to him. We. the
farmers and business men of Lee
County. wish to commend to all our
fellow South Carolinians our neighbor
and a man we know well, Hon. Rich
ard |. Manning. as their choice FOR
governor. Mr. Manning is first of all
Il successful farmer, and next, is a
successful business man. He Is man
whose private life is above reproach.
whose public life is always open, who
takes a stand to what he thinks Is
right and does not put his honest con-
victions aside for a stand that he does
not believe in, but which brings him
votes. If elected he will make
South Carolina an able governor. con-
ducting the affairs Of the State along
sound but progressive lines.
United we stand: divided we fall
We urge every good South Carolinian
who wants to see our State well gov
erned for the next two years to vote
for Richard l. Manning.

Battle of Dinant.-A Brussels dis
patch Of yesterday to the Exchange
Telegraph company of London, says
the French casualties in the fighting
between Namur and Dinant were
heavy, as the Germans were strongly
entrenched and their artillery at the
outset played great havoc with the
French.
The French wing at Dinant had been
badly cut up and nearly routed when
suddenly the strains of the "Marseil-
laise" resounded in the French lines
and the men rallied and reformed
With splendid gallantry they charged
hurling themselves on the German
troops, breaking through their lines
and putting them to flight.
The Times correspondent at Namur,
Belgium, who witnessed the fighting al
Dinant Saturday, says:
The battle occupied whole day but
was made up of two actions. The first
continued from morning until O'Clock
in the afternoon. The second occupied
the remainder of the afternoon. From
early morning when the Germans took
possession of a part of Dinant on the
left bank of the MeuSe and a regiment
Of French infantry advanced at the
same time from the south and occupied
the other side Of the town, skirmishes
between the two forces proceeded
throughout the forenoon.
In the afternoon the fighting took
the form Of an artillery engagement
The French infantry withdrew from
the town into the woods at the side o1
the Meuse four miles from the river.
The artillery then took charge OF
the battle at the same moment 9
French infantry regiment advancing
along the Meuse on the right bank
from HouX, at the south Of Namur
flung itself on the Germans in the towT
and aided by artillery drove them off
Then from o'clock until o'clock the
two armies were engaged in an artil-
lery duel across the town. II was al
ways the Germans who were retiring
along the hills to the south Of the towT
and always the French who moved
forward their batteries little by little
Gradually the French drove the Ger.
mans southwark. probably along the
road to Han Sur Lesse, pursuing al
the time with infantry and chasseurs
ITO all appearances the French ar
tillery made better practice than th'
German. The number of killed anC
wounded must have been heavy"
