Rush For Federal Patronage
Becomes Almost General
Among Democrats There.
THREE BIG JOBS
IN GREAT DEMAND
(Br G forge H. Clements.)
Phoenix. Ariz, Not. 11. The amount
r.f "pie" to be cut up and distributed
i nions the Democrats of Arizona
v hen the party comes to its olrs after
March 4 next, is scandalous to con
template and it is not to be wondered
'iif-rc has been an unseemly rush for
the 'pie counter" The salaries of the
t. deral officers alone amount to about
$4 ..000, and besides the salaried of
; ices, there are any 'number of good
f e offices to be filled. The . alaried
rfices and the salaries attached there
t .is follows
Office. Salary
f i deral judge (a life office) per
ear $6,000
Isrk of federal court, per year. 3,500
rwo deputy clerks, $1,500 each.. 3,000

Three office deputies, $1,200 each 3,000
Fee Positions Also Desirable.
Besides the foregoing, there are the
postmasters at Phoenix, Prescott
iima, Tucson, Blsbee, Douglas, Clif
ton, Morenci, afford and Globe, all
of which are of the first class, and
cry desirable from the standpoint of
ompensation. And that does not com
plete the list. There will be a regis
ter of the land office, a receiver of
the land office, a collector of lnter
ral revenue, who covers Arizona and
New Mexico, but who may be selected
fiom Arizona, a collector of the port
of Nogales several deputy collectors,
1 4 United States commissioners, in
bankruptcy, one for each county in
tne state, and some 20 or more United
states commissioners. All of these
are fee offices and pay from $1,000 to
$3,000 each.
The Three Bis Jobs.
The three big- jobs are the federal
judgeship, the district attorneyship
and the marshalship and these are the
jolts for which the rush is being made.
The Republicans say that so far as
the federal judgeship Is concerned,
there is no need for haste on the part
of the Democrats, as they have every
reason to believe that judge Richard
E Sloan, the present incumbent, will
e confirmed bv tb mresent Unite
States senate
ember, in spite of the opposition
the senators from Arizona. However,
that may be the Democrats are lining
up for it just as though Sloan were
already eliminated and the way dear
for the appointment by Mr. Wilson of
tne of the party workers.
While Eneene S Ives mav Tiofc fteJ
that he can sacrifice his great law"
practice to accept a ,000 a year
judgeship there seems to be no doubt
that he will have such influence at
the white house after March 4 next.
that the new president will be guided
very largely in the matter of making
appointments by wljat Mr. Ives says.
That being the case, it will behoove
all Democrats suffering with office
-ekers itch to consult Dr. Ives. Thus
far the man most talked of for the
place is Reese M. Ling, who lives and
practices law in Phoenix, but who calls
Prescott home. Whether he has asked
Mr Ives if he can be a candidate for
the place is not known.
Many Seek Marshalshlps.
While the federal judgeship is open
to members of the legal fraternity
nlv the race for the United States
Ttiarshalship is open to every Demo
crat in the state and seemingly every
Democrat is after the appointment.
mong those who have "thrown their
hats in the ring" and who are con--'dered
eligible are W. T. Webb, ot
Graham. Edward Shaw, of Maricopa;
A W. Forbes, of Pima; Bmanuel
Drachman, also of Pima; Ben Craw
ford, present clerk of the superior
court of Greenlee county, and Joseph
Dillon, of Yavapai county, at present
clerk of the supreme court of the
itate If Webb or Shaw have any
backing" except that of the people.
jt is not known. Forbes is being sup
ported for the place by Ives, it is
said Drachman has the backing of
senator Mark Smith; Ben Crawford is
"said to be Smith's second choice, and
Dillon is said to be the choice of sen
ator Ashurst. With the senators not
of one mind in the matter, it would
not be strange, it is thought, if Ives
man should pick the plum.
Just why there is such a hurry to
line up for the marshalship tat not
understood, particularly in view of
the fact that marshal Overlock has
served but nine months of a four
' ears' term. Of late it has been the
custom to permit all presidential ap
pointees to serve their full terms, ex
cept for cause and rt is generally be
lieed that Mr. Wilson will follow that
rule laid down by no less a Demo-
ratic personage than the late presi
dent Cleveland.
Many Posteffiees Available.
T:en should that rule be followed.
there are a number of postmaster

ZAPATISTAS TO RE-
SORT TO GUILLOTINE
Mexico
City. Mex.. Nov. 1L Gen. Ge-
ronimo Trevino. who was recently re
tired from the army at his own request
is suggested as provisional president
of Mexico, in a new revolutionary man
ifesto, which has just reached the cap
ital The document is signed by Guadeacio
de la Have, colonel, of-regulars, who
lately joined the insurrection; Benja
min Rodriguez and T R. Pradillo, the
latter with Orozco's army until he in
curred Orozco's displeasure by taking
Emlllo Vasquez Gomez from Kan An
tonio to Juarez.
The manifesto is dated Psebla, the
day after the capture of Gen. Felix
Dias. The newspapers of Mexico City
have refrained from mentioning the
manifesto, and it is not believed Gen.
Trevino is interested.
A revolutionary document obtained
by the police from Zapatista prisoners
reveals the intention of the Zapata
brothers and the leading insurrec
tionary chiefs, whose names are signed,
to imitate the French revolution. Prom
ises are made to the insurgent army,
to which the document is addressed,
that a guillotine will be erected in the
capital and that the heads of many bi
the rich will fall. It also promises that
others will end their days in the "Mexi
can bastile."
Notwithstanding the failure of the
Zapatistas to take Cuernavaca, activi
ties in the states of Morel os, Guerrero
and Mexico continue, and the govern
ment Is planning to resume the "exter
mination" tactics employed by Gen.
Robles a few months ago with some
success. General Blanquet will be left
in the Zapata district instead of being
ordered to resume the campaign
against Orozco.
The defeat administered by Gen.
Blanquet at Cuernavaca appears to
have incited the Zapatistas to more
horrible outrages. Wandering bands
are committing murder and arson. A
freight train was stopped near Puebht
by a band Saturday night The con
ductor was stabbed to death, the en
gineer was stabbed and, though not
killed, was thrust into the firebox ot
the locomotive and the door closed.
Reports are current of a new plot, a
well known army officer having a con
ference with the Orozco adherents
with the object of organizing all fac
tions of the rebels.
The government has been unable to
locate Gen. Hlginio Agullar, but asserts
that he has no following worth men
tioning. A special dispatch to the Im
parcial says that Gen. Aguilar Slept
last night at the San Gerohtmo 'ranch,
in the 'southern part of the state of
Tuebla, and that he had several hun
dred men with him.

MEN
INSIST ON
STANDING FIRM
A strike which 'may. tie up all rail
road traffic in E1 Pao. becomes daily
more and more possible as a result of
tne reported refusal or -tMe- u. u. raii--road
to include two vital clauses into
the contract with -the trainmen and
yardmen.
The road, poll is said to have shown
that 94 percent of . the- conductors,
brakemen and switchmen favor a strike
rather than accept, tbe newi contract
minus the two desired .clauses. relating
,to the hours of-layover, in be home
te.rm.inal and the operation TOf local
freight by a daylight schedule.
Not only will the G. H. freight traf
fic be affected but the Southern Paci
fic and the Texas and Pacific "will be
brought into -the fight, railroad men
say. The Texas r and Pacific trainmen
who are members of the unions, say
that they will refuse to handle freight
trains between El Paso and Sierra
Blanca where the two railroads oper
ate jointly. Neither will' the Southern
Pacific trainmen assjst in' making up
trains in the local yards or operating
them out of the terminals, the west
end men say.
Should they be required to do -this,
they will join the strike and the pre
diction is made that not only will the
two other lines be affected but that the
entire 61 railroads composing the West
ern Federation will go out in sym
pathy with the G. H. .men as a supreme
test of the unions' ability to make terms
as to their working conditions. Should
such a strike be called it will include
110,000 trainmen and 53,000 conductors,
all of whom are members of the
Brotherhod of Railway Trainmen and
ttia nrrtr nf -RailrnAd Canriilr.tnra
It is now up to G. & Waid, assistant
general manager ot tne u. rl., local
trainmen say. As a member of the
trainmen's organisation, he was a fight
er for the men, they say. As an otil
cial of the road, they expect he will
continue to tight, this time for the com
pany, and the operating men expect the
fight of their lives unless the road
consents to arbitrate.
Strike orders are expected here
daily from Houston and the men are
ready to leave the service of the road
as soon as the orders are received.

uary l three-fourths of the staffs of I J Nej Hampshire Rhode Island and
.. , ,. . , ... M tah hae acted adversely on the
the union will have ratified the con- .ln.ndment. Ten states have not jet

Notice of approval, by 3S of the states,
this constituting the three-fourths-majority
required for amendment of the
constitution already has been received
by the state department.
The income tat amendment grants
congress power to levy a tax on in
comes "without apportionment among
the seeral states and without a. cen
sus or enumeration.' It will enable
the legislative branch of government
to frame an income tax law which will
be safe from attack on the ground of
unconstitutionality and will remoe
from the field of politics astubborn
from the field of politics a stubborn
for debate in seveial presidential cam
paigns. The ineou,e tai aiacudtntju. when
adopted, will be known as article XVI,
and will become a part of the con--.
'ition b nroclamation of the secri-
k tarj, of state. Notice has been received
tering the body through the fleshy part
of the arm about midway between the
elbow and shoulder, ranging, downward
to the heart and causing death almost.
Instantly.
v Two shots -were fired. One lodged in
the floor, while the other remained in
the body of the victim until probed for
by the physicians at a post mortem
examination prior to the inquest
After the shooting, it is said the
husband went to his father's house,
where he removed his bloodstained
clothing and Informed his father, Gua
dalupe Ascarate, that the wife had shot
herself.
The Hniibnnd Arrested.
The body was removed to the under-'
taker's at tiro a- m. and the husband
I was arrested at once by sheriff Lucero.
Ascarate being lodged in jail doubtless
prevented further trouble by the en
raged friends of the young wife and
her family, for the father of the victim,
Margarito Barela. is one of the best
known native residents, and the runa
way match in which the daughter fig
ured less than,, a year ago was the
means of estranging the Barela and
Ascarate families after long years o
friendship.
Had TnwHe Before.
Leas than six months ago the girl'
had occasion to cause the arrest of ner
husband, charging that be had struck
her with a gun in such a manner that
it nearly ruined the sight of one eye
and it was only after repeated prom
isee of good conduct on the part ot
both the husband and his father that
she consented to return to him. It is
said that the husband is under bonds
at this time to keep the peace, grow
ing out of the former difficulty.
Wife Afeeat to Become Mother. '
A sad feature of the case is the fac
that the young -wife was to have bet
come a mother within a few weeks.
The grief stricken parents of both
husband and wife are mourning deeply
over the tragedy and the stricken mother
of the girl lies at her home in a danger-
oos condition, caused by the shock and
' grief, while at the home of Guadalupa
Ascarate. the mother of the boy is alia
hi a sad nervous state.
