MAN WAS DISCOVERED
DEAD NEAR PRESCOTT
Special to The Timet.
Prescott. Arlz„ Nov. 26.—The dead
body of William Mingus was found Mon-
day morning In the rocks about one mile
west of Mercy hospital by an Indian,
and it is the belief that after an exami-
nation was made by a coroner’s jury,
that he passed away from natural causes.
JrThe deceased selected that Isolated lo-
cality for his camping place several
months ago end it is stated that he led
a secluded Hfo and desired to be away
from everybody. He had eccentric habits
and disliked to live in the city, although
it is said he had financial means.
Where bo was camped, there was no
shelter, and under a crudely made can-
vas canopy he was accustomed to sleep-
ing between two large boulders. The ap-
pearance of the body Indicated that at
least three days had elapsed since death
ensued, and that the end was attended by
a terrific struggle Is Indicated by the
ground that had been tom up, evidently
by his feet. The last time he was seen
in the city he complained of illness and
Informed his friends that he believed ho
would experience a recurrence of the
grip, with which he had been afflicted
some years ago.

Turkish Troops at Tripoli Gout
Reinforcements From Araks end
Prepare for an Attack on Italians
Special to The Timet.
Tripoli, Nov., 26—The Italian com-
manders here begin to realize that
they have a long campaign ahead of
them. The Turks are getting re-en-
forcements from various Arab tribes
and seem to be preparing for a de-
termined attack on tho city. The
NEW MEXICO STATE
Will Start tlic Official Count of the
Vote Monday Morning.
Special to The Timet.
Santa Fe, N. M., Nov. 26.—'This city is
already filling up with politicians com-
ing here for the purpose of watching the
count of the votes cast m the first state
election, which takes places Monday,
with the territorial chief justice, governor
and secretary as the canvassing board.
Monday morning will see the city full of
candidates and tho friends of candi-
dates.
Some of the Republican leaders started
out to organize a legislative fight against
Governor-elect McDonald, hoping to dls-
cledit his administration as they did Ha-
gennan's, but after canvassing the situa-
tion they came to the conclusion that the
Republican organization would do well to
organize the legislature at all.. The or-
ganization of the legislature presents a
serious problem to the Republican lead-
ers. Many of the legislators-elect have
progressive tendencies, even if they have h treated
been classed as Republicans, and at this / 0
time it is not at all certain that the old
line Republican leaders will be able to
dictate the organization of the legisla-
ture.
Rursum, Luna and other “stand pat’-
leaders have been very active since the
election trying to get the Republican
legislators-elect Into line for the old
crowd, but with Jndiferent success. The
general understanding Is that Rursum Is
out to beat Andrews at any cost, and
that he may become ft candidate for a
toga himself. Andrews seems to have
the best of the fight, both In the numbers
of legtslators-elect pledged to hint and
his organization. Some of Rursum's
friends charge that Andrews was against
Bursum in tlje election1:. They also
charge that the El Paso & Southwestern
threw their candidate down because the
political managers of the company did
not have their coal camps return a solid
vote for the Republican ticket, which Is
true only to the extent that the com-
pany did not attempt to dictate to its
employes and apparently took no active
part In the campaign.
A number of the native leaders are ac-
tively working up campaign interest in-
tended to send a Mexican to the United
States senate, but every prominent Mex-
ican working on the scheme insists that
he is the only available candidate. The
list to choose from so far is: Elfego
Baco, Bernillo county: Melquias Martinez,
Taos county; Secundlno Romero, San
Miguel county, and a few lesser lights.
All these mentioned were defeated can-
didates on tl.e Republican state ticket.
There are,persistent rumors to the ef-
fect that some of the strongest Repub-
lican leaders of the north are favoring
McDonald for the United States senate.
Others have refused to longer follow the
leadership of the men responsible for the
late defeat in the new state, and a num-
ber have declared themselves progressive.
So far as the Republicans are concerned
it is simply a condition of political chaos,
with anything likely to happen, even to
the selection of two straight Democrats
to the United States senate by a sup-
posedly Republican legislature.
The most astute Republican leaders
are holding the olive branch out to the
Democrats in the hopes of stopping a
number of the threatened contests,
which, it is admitted, will expose political
conditions in tome of the counties.
The Democrats are claiming extensive
frauds in Republican '-ounties, and thej
seem persistent 1n their Intention of prov-
ing their charges if given the oppor-
tunity. The gathering of the politicians
here has revived the talk of a congres-
sional investigation of the election meth-
ods of the Republican counties.

Maleing Washington the Most
Beautiful City in the W^orld
Washington was once a dismal and distressing swamp—
the last place that a man of average foresight would con-
template as a city of majesty and beauty, tA foreigner saw
in thia dreary waate a vision of beauty. He drafted plans
which, when carried out, will make thia site the finest resi-
dential city of the world. His plans were drawn more than
a hundred years ago. Just who thia architect-dreamer was,
and how hia dream is coming true, are told in a fascinating
article entitled, “The New Washington,” by Isaac F. Mar-
coseon.
What Do Y ou Know About
This Great Question ?
The Supreme Court of the United States will shortly
render a decision on the Oregon initiative and referendum.
The decision ia important in that it will determine the trend
of all legislation along this line. If you would have a clear
understanding of the present status of the movement for
giving the people more effective control of their govern-
ment, read “Initiative, Referendum end Recall,” by Judson
C. Welliver.
Are Rich Men Gullible ?
We hear to mnch these days about the poor
man who is unfairly parted from his money that
many are led to believe that* those in affluence
are immune from the sharper. The opposite
seems to be the case, according to Walter Prich-
ard Eaton. In an entertaining article, "The Gulli-
ble Rich,” Eaton tells of many wealthy men of
accredited business acumen who have “fallen for”
the most obvious frauds ever perpetrated.
Thackeray as His Friends Knew Him
The intimate friendship that existed between Thackeray
and Mrs. Brookfield has long been a subject of the deepest
interest to all readers of the great English novelist, and to
all students of the personal romances of literature. There
have been many unauthorized statements on the subject,
some of which have given much pain to the relatives of the
two persons most concerned. In this article, Mrs. Brook-
field's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Charles Brookfield, sets forth
the exact facts of Thackeray's relations with his closest
friends, and we find in it mary charming sidelights of an
interesting personality.
