EX, Mondav, October 13, 1913" SEV ERAL CMMITES i UP S1ID I Reported that El Paso's Representative in the National House Will Gk) Onto Interstate Commerce Com mission Eelly, Sweeney, Jackson, Huds peth and Lea Are Considered. CONGRESSMAN W. R. Smith's pros pective appointment as an Inter state commerce commissioner In place of commissioner Judson C. Clem ents, has started the congressional po litical kettle to boiling in this district. Congressman Smith represents the El Paso district and his strength has in the past put the- quietus on any congressional candidates who might aspire for his legislative toga. But with the appointment of the El Paso district congressman to the commerce commission, the crop of candidates for congress from the El Paso district promises to be large by threshing time. Locally mayor C. E. Kelly, state sen ator Claude B. Hudspeth, former mayor Joseph U. Sweeney, judge Dan JL Jack son and T. C. Lea, are being discussed by the "ring" and "anti-ring" fa-'"-ns for the seat if it is vacated. Hndapetli'M Cnndlilacj. State senator Hudsneth has been a tentative candidate for the ''b since he first landed squarely in "he bosom of local politics from his west Tex-"? ranch. His reapportionment measure in the Texas legislature was aimed, his political enemies claim, wholly and solely at the bullseye of his one cher ished ambition, namely, to write "M. C." after his name. Mayor Kelly's name has never been mentioned for any political preferment outside of El Paso county before until the report was received here that con gressman Smith might accept the in terstate commerce berth. From an 1-!-spired source the suggestion came that he should groom himself for the con gressional handicap, being pickei to carry much weight and little, if any, handicap in this futurity. "This is a new thing to me," the mayor modestly said Monday morning when asked about the report that he would run: "I appreciate the Interest my friends have taken in me." More than that he declined to say. Some Pat History. There is more to this heralding of the present mayor as the future congress man from the EI Paso district, -olitical 1 weather forecasters declare, than ap pears to the naked optic. The "dope" dates back to the famous fuss in the Texas legislature between state repre sentative Richard Burges and state senator Claude B. Hudspeth as a result of the reapportionment measure. In the' course of this rather heated debate, the senator from El Paso re ferred to the representative from El ! i'aso in somewnat personal terms, ana Intimated that he, representative Bur ges. had a near personal interest in the reapportionment measure, In that GERMANY TO SEND WARSHIP TO MEXICO Berlin.

FOR (OKIES SHU'S SE1T FOR his fatherinlaw. E. A. Shelton, was a candidate for the postmaster's job at El Paso, or senatorial language to the same general trend. It was thereupon hinted that the state senator was cut ting and fitting his proposed new dis trict to fit his own political form. The Burges-HudHpeth Fight. ICow that there is liable to be a vacancy in the congressional list from El Paso's district, the difficulties be tween Mr. Burges and Mr. Hudspeth are KAirt to have become acute. Huds- ' peth is said to be strong down district with the cattlemen, rancners ana cer tain other elements which enter Into the sum total of Texas state politics. To overcome any such advantage, the Burges crowd is said said to have in spired the reported candidacy of Kelly, knowing that his political strength in El Paso would carry him far along the road for the nomination, which means election in this district. Kelly is said to have leaned a wee mite toward Hudspeth In his congres sional hopes and desires, as one friend to another. This is not to the liking of Messrs. R. F. and W. H. Burges, the wise ones warble. To overcome, any such friendly feeling, Kelly himself is nominated for the congressional fu turity. R, F. Burges is considered as a future candidiate. Antis Not Asleep. Nor have the antis been asleep at the signal post since the first an nouncement of the DrODOsed change. Judge J. TJ. Sweeney, who has stood so straight on local political matters that he has leaned backward a bit to ward the "anti-ring side," Is one of the tentative candidates for congress. Although a "ring" mayor, he is known as an "anti-ring" ex-mayor with a lightning rod up to windward. T. C. Lea. county chairman, and an "anti," is another who is being men tioned as a likely candidate for the job. Judge Dan M. Jackson, anti-organization candidate for judge and elected on that plank, is the third prospective candidate for the trip to "Washington, D. C at the expense of the people. A special election will have to be -Hed to select Smith's successor if he finally decides to accept, and it is probable that, the "ring" and "antl ring" sides will be sharply marked in this struggle for the El Paso district nomination. Better Job Than Congressman. The reason given for commissioner Clements retirement is that he is about to reach the retirement age. Congressman Smith is said to have been approached by the party leaders regarding his appointment to succeed the retiring commissioner. The job pays $10,000 a year, which is $2500 more than a congressman draws. SAFEGUARD BORDER FROM YELLOW FEVER "Washington. D. C. Oct. 13.

ORNER TO BE BROUGHT TO EL PASO District Attorney Bridgers Says She Will Not Be Tried On Insanity Charge; Wow Without Counsel. Mrs. Agnes Orner. who has been on trial for murder at Van Horn, Tex., on a chanjre of venue from this countv. will be returned to the county jail of this county Tuesday morning. In connection with the Orner case, district attorney Bridgers expressed the opinion in his office Monday morning that he is not seriously considering the filing of an insanity charge against Mrs. Orner upon her return here. Said Mr. Bridgers: "Mrs. Orner has been tried in this countv once on the charge of insanity shortly after the death of her husband and the Lucas j child, which occurred in this county. murder charge by an insanity subter fuge." continued Mr. Bridgers, "as I think the woman should be restrained of her liberty for the rest of her life. Al though if I thought I 'could serve the same end by sending her to the asylum, I would be willing to pursue that course. As to whether Mrs. Orner will be again tried in this county is a legal question, which is to be determined, she having been granted a change of venue from tliis county after her first trial. If the case is taken to another county, I may again assist in the prosecution, as I deem it mv duty to the people of El Paso to follow the matter to an ending. If the case is again sent from here, it will probably go to San Antonio or Dallas. From what I know of Mrs. Orner's circumstances, she is without funds and she no longer has counsel, as both Chas. Owen and judge Irby have announced their withdrawal from the case. This state of affairs will necessi tate the court in appointing counsel to take charge of her next trial."

BACKACHE A WARN ING YOU SHOUD HEED It is One of Nature's First Signs of Kidney Troubles, if Neglected, Serious Diseases May Follow. When the kidneys aro clogged up and inactive, nature has a. way of warning yon. Backache is one of the first symp toms. You may also be troubled with disagreeable, annoying bladder disor ders; have attacks of lumbago or rheu matism; become nervous, tired and feel all worn out; puffy swellings show un der the eyes or in the feet and ankles; and many other symptoms are noticed. If they are neglected, dropsy, diabetes, or Bright's Disease, which so often prove fatal, may result. It is not only dangerous, but needless fcr you t.- suffer and endure the tor tures of these troubles, when a little Croxone now will quickly and"surely end all such misery. There is no more effective remedy known for all -such troubles than Crox one. because It reaches the cause. It soaks right Into the kidneys, through the wal'a and linings: cleans out the clogged up pores; neutralizes and dis solves the poisonous uric acid and waste matter that lodge in the joints and muscles and cause those terrible rheumatic pams, and makes the kid neys filter ana sift the poison out of the blood and drive It from the system. You will find Croxone different from all other remedies. It is practically im possible to take it without results. An original package costs but a trifle, and all druggists are authorized to return the purchase price if Croxone should fail in a single case. Three doses a day for a few days Is often all that is ever needed to end the worst back ahf. rrluve rh .imatic pains, or over come urinary disorders. Advertisement. !SaBrfi.kW.lllliLft I Nervous?
