ROBERT w. JONES informed us on
Monday, that Rev. Edward R. Jones
of Oak Hill died on Sunday. He was
about IS years of age. He was man
of unblemished character, and a
preacher very much above the average
for ability.
We became acquainted with Mr..
Jones some years ago, when he got
married. His wife, who survives him,
was Kate Williams, widow Of DR.
Williams, who died while a member
of the Legislature.

FALL FROM A SCAFFOLD!
Uncle Robert Gardner Takes an Air. Line
Voyage of Twenty Five Feet!

The veteran painter, Robert Gardner,
was painting the new residence of John
II. Price, near the M. E. Church. On last
Friday Mr.. Gardner was at work on
scaffold, painting the cornice of the build
ing. The distance from where he stood
to the ground was twenty to twenty-five
feet. Suddenly he reeled and fell from
the scaffold, his head striking the ground
with great force, making an ugly scalp
wound. His wrist was also broken.
Prompt aid was at hand, and everything
done necessary to the proper treatment of
the case, and Mr. Gardner is getting along
finely. He will probably be about again
in few days. The fall is attributed to
a fainting spell, as the old gentleman had
a firm, solid scaffold upon which to work
1t was a very narrow escape from death
and we congratulate our old friend that
the accident was not fraught with more
lamentable results.

UNCLE 10. PATTERSON and wife took
the Sen. editor Of the Standard and his
wife out for pleasant buggy ride on
Saturday afternoon. We had bran new
two-seated carriage, purchased by Tom
Delay, since the fire, and had Toms beau
tiful white horses attached. Tom is pick
ing up again, and will soon be prepared
to accommodate all his old customers as
formerly. He deserves patronage and
encouragement, as his loss by the fire was
crushing. He is man of wonderful en-
ergy, and he will succeed.

per mile each way.
Mr.. JOHN W1sEMAN has sold the
Chillicothe Aduertiser to Frank Har-
per and George F. Hunter. Mr..
Wiseman made good paper-in fact,
it did not suit the Democracy, as he
was Christian gentleman, and his
paper opposed drunkenness, prostitu-
ton and gambling in Chillicothe.
The new editors say:
"We are Democrats by education
and conviction, and we intend to pub
lish an outspolen, uncompromising G
Democratic paper, which shall be a
faithful ard fearless exponent Of the
time-honored principles Of the grand
old party that has existed since the
formation of our Government
party that has always stood by the
Union and the Constitution, and can
point with pride and satisfaction tc
such leaders as Jefferson, Madison and
Jackson"
The new editors do not specify what
those time-honored principles are, but
in looking over the Democratic plat
forms, and remembering the current
events as far back as our recollection
extends-that is, to the year 1924, W.
can give a pretty fair statement O.
those principles. They are advocac.
of human bondage, and free beer ant
whisky, and filings at preachers
churches, and professors of religion
morality and decency.
In pointing with pride to the lead
ers Of the party these young mel
should extend one little finger toward
some other eminent leaders of tn
party, in addition to Jefferson, Mad
ison and Jackson; for instance, sucl
leaders, or bosses of the party as ia
cob Thompson, Joseph E. johnson
Robert E. Lee, Jefferson Davis, &c.
But the richest sarcasm is in tn
following: "a party that has alway
stood by the Union and the Constitu
ton" And this talk about part
which got up and carried on for fou
years the most gigantic rebellion il
the history Of the human race, t
overthrow the Union and the Consti
tuition !

REDUCTION OF REVENUE.

The result Of the labors of the Tariff
 Commission will undoubtedly be a ma
 terial reduction in the burdens of taxa
 ton and sensible diminution Of reve-
 nue. It Is hardly to be supposed that
 the efforts of interested parties in Con
 gress to reduce the taxation Of spirits
 and tobacco will meet with much favor.
 The Chicago Tribune thinks that the
 character Of the conspiracy to throw
 away the fifty millions of revenue de- rived from tobacco in order to keep on the monstrous tariff on clothing and steel may be illustrated in this way: The entire cost of the postal service during the last fiscal year was but a little more than S40,000,000. The revenue derived from a reasonable tax on tobacco would pay the whole cost of transporting and delivering the letters, newspapers and pa ckages which are handled by the Post office Department. If a reduction of the surplus revenue be the pretext for the proposed repeal of the tobacco tax, then the same end could be achieved by setting aside the revenue for tobacco for the support of the postal system. There would then be S40,OOO,Oe0 less per anRum to squander upon extra vagances, subsidies, and jobs, but the saving would inure to the benefit of the intelligence and business of the coun- try, and not to those who are addicted to an enervsting vice. Revenue reform ought to approve of this means for cutting down the surplus in preference to that which is proposed; at all events, a good idea of the enorrlity Of the bounty which it desired to bestow upon the consumers of tobacco may be obtained from the sIngle reflection that the revenue to be surrendered would provide the American people with cheap postage. It can scarcely be dis puted that the diss imitation of knowl- edge and the facill-atlon of commercial exchanges through the mails are If more value to the people than the of tobacco. Nobody but a Democratic 'revenu. reformer' will undertake to controvert that proposi- figT {"

THE ENLARGEMENT OF THE CITIZEN"

For some time past, owing to the e1-
 tensivo advertising patronage Of the
 CITIZEN, we have been compelled to is-
 sue a small supplement ID order to en-
 able us to publish the desired amo ant
 of reading matter. Recognizing the
 fact that thls was not wholly satisfac- tory to the advertising patrons Of the
 paper, we determined to adopt the fle1- ible plan of publishing the CITIZEN.
 We have therefore added one column on a page, and hereafter the paper wlll be issued in an eiaht-column or a nine-col- umn form, just as the oIigencies of bus mess require, so that DO advertisements need hereafter be crowded out Of the regular body of the paper into a supple ment.
 There are certain seasons of the year when the advertising business of a pa per IS larger than at others, as just about the holidays. The business men of Tucson appreciate the CITIZEN as first class advertising mediam at all times, and our columns are always filled, and this enlargement is in re- sponEe to their demands upon our col umns and to enable us to meet tine wants of the reading public and con- tinue the paper, as heretofore, in the front rank of the excellent journals for which Arizona is entitled to credit.
 This enlargement IS a compliment to .he enterprise and the business sagacity of the mercantile houses of Tucson. | They appreciate the benefits of adyertis- ing and they know that the CITIZEN is the best medium through which to reach the people of Arizona and Son l ora, as their extensive use of our columns clearly demonstrates.
 The proprietors Of the CITIZEN take this occasion to express their thanks for 1 the liberal support given the paper by | the merchants and business men Of this | city, and we assure both readers and | advertising patrons that we will con- tinue to make the paper the thorough | and uncompromising exponent of the | great industrial enterprises of the Ter ritory, without which cur progress would be crab fashion and keep the | paper credit to the city and the Ter ritory as a frst-class enterprising news paper.
