ALL PREPARATIONS MADE
FOR TONIGHT’S MEETING
Major Sweeney Expected to Arrive
This Morning and Address People
At dburl House on D«m Subject
—Music and Speeches.
SUBJECTS FOR GOOD SPEAKERS
Practically all of the preparations
for the big niasa meeting to be held
tonight in the oourt house have been
completed and a great crowd is ex-
pected to attend. The music is to
be furnished by Concha's band, the
speakers are drawn from the most
eloquent men of the city and the sub-
jects are of interest to every voter
and tax payer In El Paso.
Mayor Sweeney Is expected to ar-
rive this morning and he will tell
those present all about how the Ele-
phant Butte dam proposition Is get-
ting along In the city of Washington.
This alone would be sufficient incen-
tive to draw a large crowd, but there
are other subjects which are almost
of equal importance—paying your poll
tax, for instance.
The official poll tax “Booster,” other-
wise Judge A. S. J. Eylar will tell
all of the why’s and wherefore's of
the tax question. Judge Eylar is an
eloquent speaker and with this sub-
ject. fraught with so much importance
to the people of El Paso, his remarks
will be doubly important and interest-
ing.
Commissioner Fruedenthal Is down
for a speech and will probably make
one, although yesterday he said It was
like going to war—bo was trying to
litre a substitute.
In addition to the above such men
as W. W. Turney, Judge Jas. R. Har-
per and Jno. M. Wyatt will address
the audience. The meeting will be
presided over by Judge Wyndham.
Kemp. All of the speeches will be
short, none exceeding 15 or 20 min-
utes.
be regretted, but no blame can at-
tach, aor will any attach, to any of
the gentlemen who contributed of
their means for the purpose of giving
El Paso what they hoped and had ev-
ery reason to believe would be a cred-
itable publication."
Of course Mr. Martinez, Mr. Tilton.
Mr. Ponder and the men who sub-
scribed to the publication of a month-
ly magazine here, did not expect to
make even extra change out of the
enterprise, but they thought it would
help El Paso and they put up their
money on that idea. Nobody but a
common thief would try ami discredit
citizens for such efforts. And a com-
mon cur who has been thrashed on
more than one occasion and who has
sought and received protection at the
hands of the local press in his dis-
tress, Is, of course, the only one to
throw mud.

According to the story told by the
thermometer, yesterday morning was
the coldest ■ experienced this winter,
the temperature registering at one
time 20 degrees Fahrenheit, or 6 de-
grees below the freeizng point..
Owing to the fact that very lltthe
wind and no moisture accompanied
the cold tt was not so noticeable as
on other occasions during the winter.
Yesterday towards evening it became
considerably colder and at a late hour

New York, Jan. 16.—An attempt to
force consideration of the tabled reso-
lution endorsing Governor Hughes for
the Republican nomination for presi-
dent, was defeated tonight at what
was probably the stormiest session
in the political history, oj the New
York Republican county committee.
After- nearly three hours of debate,
chacterized by bitter invective and
frequently by cheers, hisses and cat-
calls, an adjournment for one month
was taken with. nothing more than
routine business transacted. A vote
on the straight question of endorsing
Governor Hughes or any other presi-
dential candidate was never reached.
There was no doubt of the veiled Issue,
however, and the outspoken support-
ers of the governor lined up squarely
against those who are either friendly
to the candidacy of Secretary Taft
or opposed to any endorsement by
the committee at this time.
At its meeting In December the com-
mittee tabled a resolution endorsing
Governor Hughes as a candidate be-
fore the Republican convention. It
was then understood that while Its
opponents believed the launching of
the governor's candidacy, if not ill
advised at least premature, definite
disposition of the resolution would lie
made tonight. Preceding the session
this evening, however, the executive
committee met. and a line up showed
an opposition to Governor Hughes of
22 to 13. At this meeting It la said
that an agreement was reached not
to take up the Hughes endorsement
at the session of the whole committee.
It was added that after routine a
motion to adjourn should immediately
be moved. The details of this plan,
however, were hurriedly made known
to the Hughes men and from the mo-
ment, that Congressman Parsous, the
chairman, called the whole committee
to order there was trouble. William
Halpin demanded that the Hughes
resolution he taken up at once.
Chairman Parson declared Ilalpln
not of order and the latter appealed.
Action followed rapidly arid before
the Issue was settled there hail been
a fist fight in the rear of the halt.
During the speaking there were
mingled cheers and hisses tor Hughes.
Taft and Foraker. Personalities were
exchanged and the excitement was
general. After the roll was called,
the vote whs announced as 202 ayes
to 222 noes. a majority of 80 to lay
the appeal from the chair on the
table.
When unfinished business was
reached former Assemblyman Ezra
Prentice moved adjournment to the
regular February meeting. Senator
Page moved to amend, making the ad-
journment for one week.
Speaking on his amendment Sena
tor Page said that he wanted early
action on the Hughes resolution.
“Why are you afraid to meet that
Issue? he, asked.
“If there ts another man tor
heaven's sake name him."
This challenge was greeted with
cries of "Taft, Taft.”
Senator Page's amendment was
eventually lost and the motion to ad-
journ for one month carried.
Albany, N, Y., Jan. 16.—Governor
Hughes made an appeal today to a
large gathering of the farmers who
are here to attend the annual meetings
of the county and town agricultural
societies for support in his effort to
abolish race track gambling tn this
state.
When the county and town agricul-
tural societies went into session this
afternoon it. was expected that there
would lie a. debate if no action was
token. After some routine business
a sudden motion to adjourn was car-
ried with a shout.
At the morning session of the town
societies a resolution was adopted ask-
ing for a change in the racing law un-
less there could be assurance of sub-
stantial state appropriations and for
the present this action stands.
SAID ESTES MAY RETIRE YET.
Report Is That Organization Support
May Go to Some Other Than
Present Attorney
The latest political street talk is
that District Attorney George Estes
may yet decide to retire from the race,
and that the organization support may
be given to either W, D. Howe or Dan
M. Jackson.
One of the local political busy ones,
who is reputed to be on the inside of
the inner council, is authority for the
statement that Estes may not receive
the support of the organization, and
that Dan Jackson has already been
"prominently mentioned” for his place.
This chance Is not at all positively
declared, for the organized Democrats
have already "stood for" all present
Incumbents.

Dos Moines, Iowa, .Jan. 16.—A mys-
tery surrounds the assault made upon
Attorney R H Dosh of Stuart, Iowa,
yesterday by Carl Lane Clemmons, a
rich lumberman of Snohomish, Wash.,
in the office of flic attorney general
at the state house and later on the
street.
The victim new lies tn a critical con-
dition at a hospital and his assailant
is held under bonds to await develop-
ments. The two men met by accident
In an ante room of the attorney gen-
eral's office where both had gone on
business. They engaged in a discus-
sion during which they moved Into
the corridor, where 'Clemmons as-
saulted Dosh.
Strangely enough (lie two men then
left the state house together. Two
blocks down the street Clemmons
again attacked Dosli and this time
with such fierceness that Dosh was
felled rnd his skull badly Injured on
the edge of the curbing. They were
taken into a doctor's office and Clem-
mons carried hi; victim upstairs,
where lie was cared for until he eould
be removed to a hospital
Neither Clemmons nor Dosli would
explain the mystery today except, that
Clemrantis said that there was an obi
fend between them. Dosh verified
ibis statement and added to the mys-
tery of Clemmons' conduct, that, on tits
arrival here from the coast two days
ago he registered the name of Mrs.
Harriet L. Clemmons, though tits wife

not explain this except that It was a

Do You Enjoy Your Meals?
One of the Most Important Questions
to Consider in the Search for
Happiness and Health.
The hurtling question, to you. In
"Are you getting out. of life all the
pleasure and the health you Hie enti-
tled to-” If not, why not?
No matter whether every organ and
member of your body Ih in a sounu
state of health and strength if your
stomach Is In any way disordered, you
are not going to be "yourself." You
are going to ho a worried, out-of-snrtfi,
nervous or sullen Individual, whose
actions will reflect your condition in-
stde, and people will naturaljy avoid
you.
The world wants to smile amt be
cheerful, and unless you are cheerful
and smile, at. least, occasionally, you
will have few friends, fewer oppor-
tunities, no success, and you will go
down in defeat defeated by dyspepsia
and a bad stomach,
A good and i boron!) digestion has
a quick, wonderful reaction upon the
brain You must, have noticed It many
times, for the brain mid stomach ari-
as Intimately Connected as a needle
and its thread, one can hardly ho used
to advantage without the other. If
your stomach is slow and lazy In di-
gesting your food, it. will produce at
once a slow, lazy and cloudy influence
upon your brain Mark It! If your
stomach lias absolutely quit work, and
fermentation Is poisoning your vitals
as a result, surely your brain is going
to be sluggish arid correspondingly ue-
pressed. No one need toll you that.
But why continue to suffer alt the
miseries ana torments that a disorder-
ed stomach brings you?
If your stomach cannot digest your
food, what will? Where's the relief?
Where's the cure?
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets arc the
relief and the < re. Why? Because,
as at! stomach troubles arise irom In-
digestion and because one Ingredient
of Stuart s Dyspepsia Tablets Is able
to thoroughly and completely digest
3,000 grains of any kind of food,
doesn't ft stand to reason that these
little Dyspepsia Tablets are going to
digest all the food and whatever food
you put into your stomach? Science
nowadays can ge*t food without hav-
ing to use the i tomach for It. And
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the re-
sult of this scientific discovery. They
digest and digest thoroughly and well,
anything and everything you eat..
So, if your stomach refuse- lo work
or can't work, and you suffer from
eructations, moat, brash, fermentation,
biliousness, sour stomach, hoar: burn
irritation ittOtestiott, or dyspepsia of
whatever form, just take one or two
of Stuart's Dy«P' nsia Tablets, and *w-
the difference, ft doesn’t cost, you
much to prove it Then you can eat
all you want, what you want, when-
ever you want, If you use these tablet's,
and you can look the whole world In
the face with a : earning eye and you
will have a cheerful spirit, a pleasant
face, a vigorous body arid a clear mind
and memory and everything will look

DEPUTY SHERIFF PUTS COUNTY
JAIL INMATES TO WORK.
Four Carloads of Wood Will Keep Pet-
ty Offenders Busy In Jail Yard and
Prevent Winter of Idleness and Com-
fort at County’s Ckpense—Van
Haslyn's Scheme.
The occasional offenders who have
looked forward possibly with no great
regret to a county jail sentence of
sufficient duration to tide over the
winter months. In comfortable idle
ness, supplied with warmth, lights aud
food by the county, will be doomed to
disappointment under the plan of cam-
paign outlined by Deputy Sheriff Van
Haslyn,
Those who commit petty thefts and
loaf In the comfort of the county jail
cells, secure from Hie pangs of linn
ger and the winter’s blustering cold,
will not have a bed of ease, by a long
shot. Apd li e secret of their coming
discomfort is contained In four car-
loads of wood received by the county
Van Haslyn Is the author of the
scheme, amt now he goes to the jail
dally and rubs Ills hands with expec-
tant glee and considerable self satis
faction, picturing meanwhile a busy
scene in the jail yard.
Here is tits scheme, unfolded in a
burst of confidence. He has secured
permission of the county judge, to
slack the four carloads of wood In the
yard at the jail. Also ho has secured
from Judge Eylar an order for saws
aud sawlmeks.
This with permission lo put the in-
mates of the jail at some useful occu-
pation, completes the whole plan.
Prisoners at the county jail wilt not
enjoy their homos In idle blessedness.
They will have to saw wood.
Regular selected squads will ho
named. Each squad will have u cap
tain, and Van Haslyn will inspire a-
healthy rivalry among the opposing
teams, to see which bunch of prison-
ers will saw the most wood. A leal It
or medal, or :r miniature'- aw and out
fit may ho the prize to the winners.
Tills is to tie selected later. The
sawyers will start In a few days.
FRENCH DEFEAT MOORS.
TEN HOURS OF FIERCE FIGHTING
AGAINST TRIBESMEN
Just as the French Troops Were De
fearing the First Attacking Party

peared on the Scene—Again the
Frenchmen Rallied and, Surrounded
on Three Sides, They Dispersed the
Tribesmen, Who Took to Hills.
Tangier. Jan. 16 -News lias reach-
'd h«ic of a terrific ten-hour engage
ment In a ravine near Sctlat yester
day between a French column under
command of General D'Amande and a
column commanded by Mulat Itaohhl,
one of llii' chiefs of Mulat llaflg';
forces
The French gained n splendid vie
toty in the lace of heavy odd.., db.
persing the uno.v and occupying the
town. Twenty French soldiers, In-
cluding three officers, were wounded,
Init many of the Arabs were killed
The latter not only offered a dogged
and fearless defense, hut returned re
peatedly to the battle after they had
been routed and attacked the French
from three sides.
In the latter hours of the fighting
Mulat Raebid's column was suddenly
re-enforced by the powerful Chaouia
tribe, which figured in the massacres
at Cana Blanca, and. which had ar-
rived fro® the mountains at the very
moment, when Mil I a I Rachld was about
to retreat. Under the combined charge
of the now confident. Moors the French
not only held their ground, hut stead-
ily threw hack the om-my, driving
them eventually lit mad haste, to the
hills.
The engagement between the French
and the Moors followed immediately'
upon a 2-i hours' niareli of General
fi'Amandcs column, and under the
circumstances the French forces are
considered to have shown more than
ordinary stamina and bravery.
After destroying the camp of the
enemy at Set tat, General D'Amande
pushed forward and occupied Kasbah
