Special Dispatch to The Star.
OATMAN, Ariz., June 90
Whether a man, even though a le-
gally constituted justice of the
peace, can officiate at his own we'd
ding is a problem that today is
troubling Judge Zadock Sheffield
and Sheriff Bill Mackey. To make
assurance doubly sure, Judge Shef-
field remarked the man in ques-
tion, Edgar McGurrin, ninety-two-
year-old veteran soldier. Indian
fighter, prospector and miner. But
the problem remains one to be
settled when the Judge gets the
chance to examine his law books.
McGurrin is the sole remaining
inhabitant of Hardyville, at the
end of Silver Creek Gulch, once
a bustling town whence was
shipped the ore from the noted
Oatman, gold district, down the
Colorado, into the Gulf of Cali
fornia and then to the Pacific.
Having lived thereabouts since
1864, he opined that he was sort
O. attached" to the locality.
He must have been lonesome be-
cause news reached here a couple
of days ago that he had married
himself to Juanita Sundial. an
eighteen-year-ol Indian girl. She
was his sixth wife, the others
having died. The news worried
Judge Sheffield and Sheriff Mackey,
so they rode out to see McGurrin
and asked him by what right he
had performed the ceremony.
IT wuz up agin a tough propo-
sition," he said, twenty miles
from minister and no horse or
burro. So I sed to myself, Ed.

DUBLIN. June 20.-Forty-four Goa
lition pro-treaty members and twenty
five coalition republicans have been
elected to the Irish parliament from
contested and uncontested constitu-
encies, according to returns so far re-
ceived.
The returns show that 1926 cleo
tors in the city of Dublin voted for
panel and Independent candidates IA
vorable to the treaty. and 10.920 for
the republican panel nominees.
Dublin Strong For Treaty.
Officials engaged in counting the re-
turns from Fridays parliamentary
elections compiled Dublin county to-
day.
Results thus far show that twenty
pro-treaty members Of the Sim Fein
panel. four independents favoring the
treaty. six laborites and five anti
treaty panel designates were success
full. OF the eighteen labor candidates.
six already have been returned.
Dublin city voted heavily against
the treaty opponents. Before the
election its twelve. seats in the dali
eireann were held by seven treaty
advocates and five by antis. The re-
suit leaves the seven treatyites. but
transfer four of the opposition seats
to Independent candidates, all of
whom favor the treaty, and one of
whom is laborite.
The only adheretn of Eamon de
Valera to come through safely is
Sean o'Ceallaigh (John oKelly).
former Sim Fein representative in
Paris.
Countess Markievic1 Defeated.
The only adherent of Eamonn de
Countess Markievicz caused surprise.
Joseph McGraw just managed to de-
feat his independent laborite oppo-
nent.
Easter week fighting, who escaped
to America and later became the
leader of the uncompromising repub-
licans in the dali eireann. was de-
feated in a provincial district. Mel
loves has been the moving spirit with
Rory O'Connor in the dissentient sec
ton of the Irish republican army.
The feature of the parliamentary
elections. on the basis of results thus
far known. is the preponderance of
the vote in favor of those candidates
who favor the Anglo-Irish treaty.
An analysis of the voting, made
possible by the proportional repre-
sentation system, shows a majority
of seven to one in favor of the treaty
in Dublin city, four to one in Cork
city and three to one in the Dublin
University. The second preferences

of Bombardment.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The American consul at Canton.
China, advised the State Department
today that gunboats Of the forces of
Dr. Sun Vat Sen had bombarded, the
town and ''raked the bund" with ma
chine gun fire. two American build
ings being struck by bullets. The
consul added that he had protested to
DR.. Sun and been informed that there
would be a second bombardment, but
that the bund would not be again
fired upon unless the gunboats were
themselves fired upon from that di-
rection.
1t was said at the department that
no action had been taken here with
regard to the bombardment, the de-
partment standing for the present in
support of the protest made by the
consul.

rr-~ Prospects for Peace.
No day since 1918 has dawned with
fairer prospects of peace and prosper
ity for China than this one. For the
first time since that year she has a
government with some color of con-
stitutionality in power at Peking; DR..
Sun Yat-Sen, the chief political oppo-
nent of the Peking regime, is stripped
of most of his power, and the chief of
the turbulent Tuchuns. or military
provincial governors, has been reduced
to inactivity, SO far as arms are con-
cerned. Moreover, Manchuria. which
a day or two ago was proclaiming
semi-independence: has signified it's
willingness to adhere to the unifica-
tion movement.
Ii Yuan-Hung, formerly president
by grace of his succession to the Of
flee from the vice presidency on the
death of Yuan Shih-Kai, and now
again in office by the request of WI
Pei-Fu and other central China lead
ers that he exercise the constitutional
authority remaining in him despite
his ousting in 1917. appeared today in
new light-that of astute political
craftsman.
Asks United China.
When WI and his supporters were
importuning Ii to return to Peking
and resume the presidency Lii de-
INJURED on the ground that he must
be president of a united China or
none. That meant. in simple terms,
that DR.. Sun Yat-Sen must abandon
his presidency Of the Canton govern
ment, which involved by inference
the fall of that government. Sun was
obdurate, but Lii did take office.
Now comes the disclosure that be-
fore he left the retirement of private
life Lii had arranged with Chen
Chung Ming, erstwhile important
leader of Suns troops, to overthrow
the Canton presidency and seize his
capital. Both events have become
facts, but now only has it been
learned generally that Ii had hand
in arranging them.
Sun Still on Gunboat.
Sun still is aboard the gunboat at
Whampoa which he boarded last Fri
day when Chen's coup attained sue
cess.
Wu's defeat Of Chang Tso-Lin in
the north and the resultant armistice
and withdrawal of Chang's forces to-
ward Mukden, his headquarters, leaves
WI free to move troops south, and
this he is doing. Already the dis
patches tell of the arrival of his bat
talions from the north in the area
tributary to Canton, where the fight
ing must be If an armed effort is at
tempted by any of Suns forces.

In 1918 Fuad |, the new king Of
Egypt, was an unsuccessful candidate
for the Albanian throne, after having
been colonel of artillery in the Italian
army. When he became sultan of
Egypt his role under the protectorate
of England was not always easy to
maintain.
One day a messenger of the British
Resident asked him to sign an ordi-
nance against the Egyptian national
lists. He refused. And the messenger
of the Resident signifed to him with
the utmost courtesy:
81 shall then to my regret have TO
arrest and imprison your highness."

"to 90 for a moment to my room to
reflect"
A few minutes later Fuad came
back IN the uniform of an Italian
colonel.
He was not arrested.
