Indications Point to Success
of Liberal Ticket in
Election.
GENERAL 53 YEARS OLD
Has Taken Leading Tart in Two
Involutions Influence and
Popularity Throughout the
Republic Widespread.
HAVANA. Cuba. Nov. 15. Genera
Jose Miguel Coma the liberal candi
date for President of Cuba, Is believed
to have been elected to that ' office
yewterday.
tieneral Gomez is S3 years of ge
and a native of Santa Clara province,
where he has always enjoyed extra
ordinary popularity and Influence. He
participated In two (treat revolutions,
in the first of which lie reached the
rank of Major, r.nd in the second that
of Major-General. He was one of the
commissioners sent to Washington to
advise as to a practical method of dis
solving the revolutionary Army.
Blames United States.
In May. 39"o. the General was nom
inated for the Presidency by the Na-tional-Uberal
convention, hut resigned
his candidacy four months later, giv
ing as the reason that it was impossible
to continue the campaign within the
hounds of the law. and laying part of
the blame on the United States, owing
to the Piatt amendment. An uprising in
Cuba followed, which ended with the
deposition of President Palma and the
intervention of the United States.
General Gomez was arrested in August.
I!, charged with conspiring against the
administration of the late President Pal
ma. but he denied the allegation and was
released from custody after a month's Im
prisonment. In Ieoember of the same
year. Governor Magoon appointed him
secretary of a commission to revise the
law s of Cuba.
tteneral Gomez was nominated unani
mously for the presidency by the Miguei
i.ta convention held last March at Ha
vana. The other faction of the Liberal
party, the Zayistas. nominated Alfredo
Zayas but later Senor Zayas resigned and
the two factions formed a coalition,
choosing General Gomez as the presiden
tial nominee and Scnor Zayaa for the
vice-presidency.
An investigation of the shooting last
night at Cienfucgos of Kdward Prleto,
a Liberal, by Gonzalo Vieta. a Con
servative, and at one time Mayor of
Cienfuegos. indicates that the affair Is
without political significance. There Is
evidence that Prieto insulted Vieta and
artacked hlin with a knife, whereupon
Vieta fired In self-defense. One po
liceman was seriously injured while at
tempting to separate the two men.
KM i ma ted Majority 23,000.
f:imates give the Island to General
Gomez by from 25.000 to 3.X. The Con
servative leadens generally admit the de
feat of their party.
Tonight the streets were thronged
with rejoicing Liberal crowds. One party,
composed of negroes, while passing the
cafe of the Hotel Inglaterra, which is a
traditional , Conservative resort, clashed
with a group of Conservatives on the
sidewalk. Knives and pistols were drawn
and several shots were tired, some of
them breaking the windows of the cafe
and causing a panic among those seated
within.
Lieutenajit Mi-Reynolds, of the Marine
Corps, ran out of the cafe and inter
posed hlmserf between the combatanta.
He made a speech in Spanish and suc
eded in inducing them to stop fighting.
The shooting, however, attracted a great
crowd and the .situation eventually be
coming threatening Major Pbltm. Super
visor of Police, summoned the reserves
and cleared the square.

secretary and treasurer of the
Newark. N. J., Trades- Council, asking
for the re-election of President Samuel
Gompers.
The reports of the officers were not
ready, and the committee on resolutions
made a partial report. Resolution No. 3.
in regard- to Asiatic exclusion, was
amended in the committee by the inser
tion of the word "coolie." This amend
ment was not satisfactory to the com
mittee, several of whom contended that
the same resolution had been adopted by
four conventions of the Federation and
should not come before this convention.
Vice-President James Duncan said that
the resolution as it stood would not in
clude the Hindus. The resolution was re
ferred back to tl:e committee to amend
the resolution, it being suggested that the
committee insert the words "races native
to Asia."
A number of resolutions were reported
favorably by the committee and adopted
by the convention.
Resolutions on the following subjects
were adopted by the convention:
Protesting against sending bookbind

ben done by some public libraries.
Indorsing the principles of the Na

DEPEIV ASSAILS
OREGON PRIMARY
"New Idea" in Politics, as He
Styles It, Defeated Sena
tor Fulton.
STATE NOW IN BAD LIGHT
JLesiiature Two-thirds Republican.
People tiave Taft Majority, but
Democrat Must Be Sent
to Senate.
NEW YORK. Nov. 15. Senator
Chauncey M. Depew delivered a warm
eulogy of organization politics at a din
ner to the Republican leaders and
workers of the 27th Assembly District
tonight. After extolling the work of
the party workers and leaders of dis
trict organizations, he said:
"We can be proud of the long line
of Presidents. Vice-Presidents. Governors
and Legislators who have been the pro
duct of the, machine. There never has
been a bad Governor of New York and
several of them have been great. Now
we are told, however, that the organiza
tion must go. The new idea, whatever
that may be.is to govern in the future.
Xeu Idea Defeated Fulton.
"The new idea has captured Oregon.
It is the first state where it has had an
opportunity to work. Under it t.iere
was a primary ballot for United States
Senator. Oregon is a Republican etate.
"The Democrats, believing it would
help them to defeat Senator Fulton, who
is one of the strongest and ablest men
in the state, overwhelmed Fulton by
voting for his opponent and nominating
him.
"When under the system the nominee of
the Republican and the nominee of the
Democratic parties came up in the gen
eral election the sentiment created by the
fraudulent Democratic assistance to the
successful Republican candidate led to
reprisals which gave the Democratic
nominee a majority. The 'Legislature
which is to elect a United States Senator
is two-thirds Republican. The state has
given an enormous majority for tart.
Must Elect Democrat.
"Under the instruction contained in the
primary law, this Republican Legislature,
though they knew how the result was
brought about, under the letter of the
law. must send for six years to Wash
ington a Democrat to fight the Adminis
tration for which their state so over
whelmingly voted and the policies in
which they all believe. If they fail to
send this Senator to fight President Taft
and his Administration they violate the
pledges they made to support the primary
law. This is the first Illustration wo have
of the practical workings of the new
idea."

jury, the' Hains brothers have been arraigned to plead to the charge of murder
in the first degree. They were brought into court October 20 and again Octo

of the brothers has changed greatly since they were first arraigned. Captain

that as the Roman Catholic Church had

prosperity; that it was in a deplorable
condition, due to-the change from a
situation in v. hich the government paid
its expenses to one in which it was
bound to look to its parishioners for
support, the latter being in the habit
of deriving benefit from the church and
not contributing to it."
Judge Taft says that the present Gov
ernor is a Roman Catholic, but he is one
of the most careful men in maintain
ing an Impartial attitude between Cath

says that the purchase of the Friar lands.
