CRIMINAL PROSECUTION.

Senator Edmunds in the March num- Der of the North American Review has an able article upon the conduct of the Guiteau trial" in which he shows that there were parallel cases of disobedience and insult on the part of prisoners at the bar, in England and France as far back as 1864, and in his admirable article he had occasion to copy kthe 9th Article of Amendment to the Constitution, which is as follows:
 ''In all criminal prosecutions, the ac- cused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the state and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be COR fronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process .for oJtGining acitaesses in his faUOr, and to have the as- sistance of counsel for his defense"
 Under the above it seems almost i'm possible to bar out testimony for the de, fense let the objections be what they may.

INDIGNATION MEETING.

The Tombstone people have had their in- dignation meeting for the purpose of con- demning President Arthur for his procla- nation to the people of Arizona calling up on them to retire to their abodes and pur- sue peaceable vacations. Now it must it the feet of the people of Cochise county, or why the indignation meeting? If any people have right to hold indignation gatherings it is right here in Yavapai. Why? Because the element of Northern Arizona is pure one, and if there be aa insult it comes di- rect to Yavapai county. Let up, gentle men, on your indignation meetings, or you will give yourselves clean away.

MIR. REEDS ARGUMENT.

the verdict in his case.
 MIR, REEDS ARGUMENT
 Mir. Reed said he approached the discus sion of the cause with some timidity. not because he did not believe the record con- tained serious errors, but because he appre- ciated the extraordinary importance of the cause and the memorable influences that surrounded it and pervaded it. Judges, he said were not insensible to influences sucL as surround the case. This case was ex- traordinary and unparalleled because of the illustri us character of the victim. How ever, if the record was erroneous he had no fear but that this court would so decide He then began to discuss the question of jurisdiction, and gave recital of the undis- puted facts of the case concerning ths shoot ing of President Garfield here. his death at Elberon, N. J., etc. Mir. Reed then pre- scented the facts and authorities set forth in his brief
 Mir. Reed having averred that the lan- guage of Blackstone on the point in ques- tion undoubtedly declared that the act was not complete in either county, Judge Cart ter disputed that interpretatInn of Black stone. ''The act of felony was pretty com plete," said Judge Cartier, after briefly sum- marizing the case, when the offender got through with what he had to do with it, was 1t notP
 Mir Reed, in reply, maintained again that the crime of murder was Il consumma- ted until death occur d.
 'Murder is killing" said Judge Cartier, land man is not killed iill he dies; but the act of felony, so far as he offence IS con cerned and SD far as the instrumentality of the offender Is concerned, Is very complete when he gets through with his part of it."
 Referring to a decision in case, which MT. Reed held was analogous to Guiteau's, Chief Justice Cartier asked what more the defendant had done after the shot to com plete the murder
 ''He didn't do anything, your honor l" said Mr. Reed "He went to jail
 "He didn't kill him over again, did he p asked Judge Cartier.
 "No"
 ''So, then" said Judge Cartier, satirically, ''the expiration of mans breath in GrticuIO mOrtes is part of the offence"
 MT. Reed, after some further discussion, referred to what he called most reputable authorities.
 ''Yes, they are just as reputable;" said the presiding judge, ''as their reasoning makes them"
 Mir. Reed insisted that death must ensue before murder has been committed, and in the jurisdiction where the case is tried.
 Let us be sensible about it, said Judge Cartier. "A homicide who has committed murder should not be tried except in the place where he committed the violence. Let it rest on dogmatism, then, and not on such authorities, if you please"

Last Friday morning our com.
munity was shocked to learn of a
dreadful accident by which the
gentleman whose name heads this
article, was instantly killed. II
seems that on Friday morning Mr..
Warileld was at his gin, and in
going from one place to Another,
stopped to pass under the shaft
which connects the engine and
machinery. In passing under the
shaft, a nut which protruded from
il, caught in the belt of his over.
coat. The result may be imagined.
Before the accident was discover.
ed or the machinery could be
stopped, the unfortunate man was
lifted from his feet and whirlcd
rapidly around the swiftly revolv
ing shaft, striking the ground at
each revolution and causing almost
instant death.
Mr.. War6eld was born in Lex.
ington, KY, and was the son of
DR.. L. Warfeld, Of that place. He
served during the late war on the
staff of Gen. Writ Adams and
made an excellent soldier.

Commandments to Husbands.
BY W. Il. WEST.

Always complain Of being tired,
and remember that nobody else
gets tired,
Your wife should have every.
thing in readiness for you, but you
should not do anything for her.
When your wife asks for money,
give her a nickle, ask her what she
wants with it, and when she tells
you ask herif she can't do without
it.
Then go down town and spend
ten times tho amount for cigars,
for they are a necessity.
Go down town of an evening,
stand around on the street corner
and talk politics; it's more interes.
ting than to stay at home with
your family.
Charge your wife not to gossip,
but you can spin all the yarns you
wish.
Have your wife get up and make
fires, but don't get up yourself till
the rest of the family are eating
breakfast, as You might take cold.
Wear old clothes, and make
yourself as untidy as possible until
your wife's health fails, then it
would be best for you to fix up
some, for in all probability you
will want another when she is
gone.
Have smile for everybody you
meet, but get a frown on before
you go home.-Physiologist.

Richmond (Vlrginla) States.
Mr.. James ID. McCabe has re-
corded some interesting expert
enccs of Christmas under the Con
federacy. The dinner of 1861, he
says, did not differ materially from
its predecessors in the "piping
times Of peace,' and although in
1862 the feast was homemade, it
was enjoyable. Turkeys were only
s1i apiece, and salt had fallen to
80 cents pound. Wines were to
be had by the very rich, and sor-
gum rum, or apple, peach, or black
berry brandy, cost $50 a gallon.
A few toys were left in the stores
in the cities, and .fre-crackcrs, es-
sential TO the Southern festival,
were 50 a pack. BY 1868 the clo-
sest search revealed no playthings,
and ire.crackers indicated great
wealth or reckless extravaganza.
The few turkeys in the market
were $40 and $50 apiece; whisky
or sorghum rum for eggnog cost
S75 or $50 q gallon; sugar was 50
aud $40 a pound, and -four 1925 a
barrel. In 1864, when Christmas
fell on Sunday, -four was 5000 a
barrel, sugar a2 an ounce, salt 81
a pound, butter $40, beef s35 to
$40. Wood in Richmond was 900
a cord. Mr.. McCabe describes a
Christmas dinner at a country
house near Richmond. The four
gentlemen were in uniform, the
three ladies ia homespun. They
had for dinner a $500 ham, and the
last turkey on the plantation, value
S175, with S400 worth of cabbage.
potatoes and hominy. Corn-bread
was served, made of meal at $50
a bushel, and salt at 81 pound.
The desert was black molasscs at
$50 gallon, and after one cup Of
tea-real tea, worth 500 a pound,
treasured for the occasion as
surprise, and not sassafras-there
was coffee at discretion, made from
sweet potatoes cut into little sli-
ces, toasted and ground down.

Strictly Temperate Except

On the sleeper of an L. L. &. W.,
train recently, a traveller noticed
an old, white-headed gentleman
trying to get in an old linen duster.
The young and spry traveller rush
ed to his assistance, and in helping
him with his garment, noticed a
good-sized whisky flask protruding
from ono of tho inside pockets of
his coat. Being of a waggish ma
turo, he appropriated the bottle,
got the coat on the stranger and
then pulling out a flask, said:
"Will you take a drinkgn
The old man did not recognize
the bottle, and, drawing himself up,
remarked rather severely:
"NO, sir; ! never drink"
at won't hurt you," insisted the
wag. Its the best.n
"Young man," said the old gen
tleman, intending for all in the car
to hear, if you persist in drinking
whisky you viii be a ruined man at
forty. 1t is the curse Of the land.
When ! was boy my mother died
and the last thing she did was to
call me to her bedside and say:
"John, swear to me that yon will
never touch a drop of liquor y
Here the old man clapped his
hand on his inside pocket, found
it empty and recognizing the bottle
in the hands of the other, he con-
timed:
"Except, my dear boy, an occa-
sional snifter while travelling"
And reaching for the flask he
pressed it to his lips, amid a howl
of laughter, which shook the whole
car.-Fairlay Coll Flume.
