AdlOs, IneZ, Dear.

Mrs. lnez McMartin and her paramour, Joe Price, skipped the town quietly last Saturda ay, leaving several sad and sorry creditors to mourn their absence. There is no doubt but they played their game shrewdly. Mrs. McMartin managed to mortgage her effects twice and realized handsomely on both occasions. A lady of somewhat miscellaneous affinities, named Miss Emma Parker, is the principal vic- tim. Through the agency of A. c. P. George, Miss Parker loaned the charming Inez $500, taking as security chattel Coy was bilked by advancing $200 on mortgage security also, without being made aware that a previous mortgage ex- isted. Several merchants were bilked out of various amounts, among others an Allen street butcher, who slghs for the languid- eyed charmer to the tune of $50. To crown it all, the effects on which the two mortgages were given were quietly sold and lnez skipped the gutter without say ing adios to her numerous admirers. She was accompanied by her man of all work, Joe Price. They were met at Benson by Sheriff Behan, who inquired ther desti- nation. He was informed that they were going to Tucson, on business, and would be back on the morrow. Noticing them entering an eastern-bound train the Sheriff remarked to Price that he thought he was going to the a.,and h. p. Sh-sh shshhh was the answer he received, and wink being as good as kick, Behan thought that Joseph was trying to give the C Al. ll l. withdrew. On reaching Tombstone the circumstance was recalled to his memory when sundry creditors came forward with their complaints. The authorities will be notified at Deming, Fl Paso and Denver and an effort made to capture the fleeing twain. It was reported around town last night that Mir. George, who negotiated the loan between Miss Parker and Mrs. Mo Martin, was afraid to meet the irate creditor, and had applied for police pro- tion.

 TAXATION in the end inevitably comes out of the laborer. Those en- gagged in productive industry there- fore pay our federal taxation which amounts to $S per capita or $40 for each family of five persons. This taxation IS upon consumption-upon everything necessary to live in com fort, except air and water-aud is the system of war taxation devised to gather in large revenues for war ex- penses. Since the war closed it has drawn from the pockets of the people six thousand millions of dollars; but the jobbers of the present Congress have done virtually nothing to lift this burden from the people, while they have voted away the whole revenues for the current financial year, millions upon millions of it in the most corrupt and proAigate jobs,

THE NEXT CONGRESS.

There are many reasons why the people of this country should not elect Republican Congress to suc' ceed the present one, but there IS a special reason brought into promi- hence lately that invites attention in this connection. Matters small in themselves become important in cer- tain relations, and individuals inslg. nifcant and even contemptible when considered apart from all fortuitous circumstances, become factors of good or evil when chance places them in pivotal relations to great movements or great responsibilities. We do not suppose that throughout the length and breadth of this great country there exists any doubt that in headship and general manage ment this session of Congress has done more to bring our country into ridicule abroad and destroy confi- donos at home than any previously held in the history of the Republic. That Keller has been positive dis grace to us is not denied by any mouth.piece of public opinion, ex- cept the organs of the ultra bourbon Republican element, which are en- titled to no respect or consideration, because they have but one song to sing, no matter what the circum- stances. Keller is the result of a conspiracy. He is part of corrupt scheme, emanating from the brain of the leader of the Republican side of the House of Representatives, who has organized committees and direct ed business throughout this session for his own selfish and profli- gate ends. Had Keller been his slave instead of his nominal chief, he could not have obeyed him more abieotly than he has. And for all this the Republicans of the eighth Ohio district, have recently endorsed this pliant tool of corruption, not coldly or hesitatingly, but with the unction of a unanimous nomination. His district IS so strongly Republican that with such flattering presenta- tion his election is almost certain. Because of what he stands for Keller is an element of evil and of danger, the magnitude of the latter being in proportion to the party backing that he will have in the House of Repre- sentative. He will return to Con- gress as Robeson's agent, for whether that arch corrup.o- 'ist has as good luck as Keller in his district or not, he will be as potent in the third house as he has been in the second, provided he can have as strong and as subservient party element to work upon, as has done his bidding during the last session.
 The chances would be as good for the reelection of Keller as speaker with a Republican house. The worse his record the greater his need of a vindication at the hands of his party. That is the argument that generally prevails, and we have no reason to suppose that the Republican mem bers of Congress have not been pleased with Keifer's administration, for they have trodden with appar- ently willing feet the paths he has pointed out to them. The situation is so plain by this time that even the dullest intellect, if there is con- science back of it, should be able to see the danger. There is but one way to head it off, and that is to elect a Democratic Congress, which will check this wanton waste and deep disgrace in the legislative balls of the Republic.

IT is to be regretted that our neighbors on the south cannot pre- serve their patience with the same ability we do. They promptly take up arms against corrupt or unpopu- lar Governor, and drive him from power, while we calmly tolerate every executive outrage.
