THE Yavapai census fraud seems to have taken away all interest in the | matter of legislative representation. Apparently, it is conceded that the various counties are shut out, in point of availability, by the perpetrated fraud. This is entirely mistake. The wrong is not yet consummated, and never can be unless it is con-
 doned by the Legislature itself.
 United action can render abortive
 the attempt of the Board of Super
 visors of Yavapai county, to disfran-
 chise .tenths of the Territory.
 The remedy lies with the Legislat'- 70
 itself, and it should be exercis) .d fair.
 ly but firmly. Such 3 disor.cefu,
 fraud upon the peop'> sboulJ not he
 allowed to oeoo'' ..e a precedent, but
 snouio o0 oouked by the press and
 p"o''' continent. The Legislature
 o"' suspend action, Tn the matter of
 the credentials of the Yavapai county
 members, until an investigation by : an appointed committee can be f had, and the result of , that investigation would determine
 how many members Yavapai county 5 is entitled to. Equity would then , require that those receiving the high [. est number of votes should be giver I seats.
 I In the matter of this census fraud f there are one or two facts, of mucl y political significance. The actua F perpetrators are all Republicans-th' l Board of Supervisors and Hance, th' :. census marshal. Clark Churchill, th' chairman of the Republican Territo I rial Central Committee, was the frs f to announce the result of the out '. rage. Further, the Republican part. S of Yavapal county has nominate' d said census marshal and said Church ill, as its candidates for the offices 0 # County Recorder and District Attor '. ney, respectively. All this consti $. tutes a Republican endorsement c e one of the most shameless outrage ,. and insults, ever directed against ,t people.
 |. In this connection, it may not b t, out of place to suggest to the Demo 1t crats of Yavapai county, that tn !. election of Hance as Recorder wi h not rebound to the benefit of thei e party. The census fraud can be re ,r peated in the Recorders office, an of the man who can disfranchise con d munities will not hesitate to swindl s. Democrats out of their rights of SUI m frage. The chairman of the Reput ir lican Territorial Central Committed al resident of Prescott, desires men i Q office whom he can use; hence tt IS Republican nominations of Yavap, ,e county.

a REMARKABLE CRIME,

A special dispatch from ST. Louis, dated the
7th inst, gives the following particulars of a
remarkable crime:
The little suburb of Kirkwood a few miles
from St. Louis, has had its usual quiet dis
turbed By terrible tragedy in the murder of
well known citizen by his thirteen-year-old
son. The Eads family who are however, not
related to the civil engineer of that name) are
among the best known people in this vicinity,
having resided hereabouts for half a century.
They own a fine farm near Kirkwood. Milton
Smith, the murdered man, is a son-in-law of
Granville Eads, and the murderer is GUY Smith,
a lad of thirteen.
The boys mother has been dead little over
year and he has earned the reputation of
being very vicious and Unruly fellow. About
three weeks ago Mr.. Smith had occasion to re-
prove his son and did so in very severe man
ner. After the whipping the boy threatened
in his rage to be avenged. Those who ought
to know say that ever since that date the boy
has seemed to remember and cherish revenge
ful feeling toward his father. This morning
Guy came into the dining room after his father
and grandfather had finished their breakfast.
Mrs. Granville Eads the grandmother of the boy.
prepared his breakfast and placed it before him,
but nothing seemed to suit him. He quarreled
about his food and abused the old lady. His
anger increased until he worked himself into
q great rage and gave vent to his wrath by
throwing the dishes about. The old lady is
quite feeble, and instead Of attempting to re-
prove the boy, called his father in Mr. Smith
responded, and as he entered the room GUY
was raging about and playing smash generally
with things. The father administered a sound
thrashing TO the boy and left him in the room.
After crying spell Guy went into his grand
fathers roOm and in a minute returned with
a double-barreled shotgun, and walking up to
the right side of his father, who was standing
in the door, he deliberately placed the muzzle
of the weapon within few inches of his body
and fired The boys movements were quiet
and quick, and no one seems to have seen him
enter the room with the gun. The load was
heavy one, and the entire charge passed through
the victims body, entering the right side below
the nipple and coming out under the heart
Mr.. Smith sank to the ground and called out,
Il am killed, send for the DOCTOR" and never.
spoke again. The boy dropped the gun and
started to run, but was seized and is now in
jail.

7, =, RrDGwAYS DEATH.

Job Harvey EidgWay, whose novel prgpOSi
ton to freeze the body Of Guiteau and ,shib;t
it for the benefit of the relatives of tn, tssassi,
attracted attention some time since died re-
Gently at his residence in PhiladclI hia, afte-
an illness Of only four days. The dee aased was
born fifty three years ago, in Salem New Jer-
sey.
at the close of Guiteaus trial, and when it
became certainty that the assassin would
meet the fate OF murderers, Mr.. Rid gway made
a proposition to Guitcaus relatives, through
the assassin's counsel and brother 5n-Iaw, Geo.
ScovilIe, to take possession of the body after
death, preserve it in his patent cefrigeratinc
apparatus and exhibit it throughout the United
States and Europe, the understanding beino
that onehalf Of the receipts was to be give,l to.
Guiteau's relatives, while the ether haIfwss to
be retained by the inventor. An reply. SEQ, lie
stated that the relatives o. the doomed man
were inclined to regard tL3 proposition fa.-or-
ably. The extensive publication at the time of
these facts, however, quickly led to a mora
serious consideration Of the proposition upon
the part of the assaIain's relatives, and finally
led to its rejection Ir. Ridgway's proposition
in detail, as descr bed by himself at the time
was to take possession of the remains after the
brain had been removed for post-morten ex-
animation, place it in one of his patent refrig-
Grating cases and exhibit it in all the PRINCIPAL
cities in this country and Europe. The case
designed for the purpose was to be ten feet
square, three sides of which were to be Of glass
so that the whole interior would be plainly
visible The fourth side was to be reserved
for the refrigerating apparatus, consisting ola
series Of v-shaped metallic troughs, extending
from side to side in a slanting zis-zag manner,
and into which was to be placed the freezing
mixture, composed chiefly of ice and salt.
1t was the intention Of Mr.. Ridgway to have
the case upholstered and finished in the most
elaborate manner. In addition to this he con-
templated making an outlay of $4,000 tor the
construction of handsome refrigerating car
in which to transport the case from place to
place. The enterprising inventor calculated
upon making, at the least, by the scheme
100000, which amount, according to the agree
ment, was to be equally divided between the
relatives of the assassin and himself. 1t is
singular coincidence and one worthyof special
note that the protector of this remarkable idea
died just five days before the execution of the
depraTed assassin whose remains he intended
to exhibit throughout the civilized world.

THE MAGAZINES,

LippiRc0tfs Magazine for July is fully up to
the high standard of that publication in point
OF general attractiyeness. The subiect-matter
is exceptionally entertaining and the illustra-
tions are in the highest style of art. We NAV
name among the contents of this number
illustrated paper on "BlacIl Bass Fishing
in Sungahnectuk," one of tho numerous
streams of the Adirondacks; an article on
peasant life in the forest Of Fontainbleau
adventures among sharks Off the coast of
Florida; paper descriptive of the scenery of
the Alleghanies; d pleasant account of the
habits and daily life of Bryant, the poet, and
an article on "The Coal Mines of the State of
Dade," and the system of convict labor in
Georgia. The first instalment of new serial
entitled "Fairy Gold" is published. and
promises to be a tale of unusual interest
Several poems of more than ordinary merit
will be found in this number.
The July number of The International Re-
Uielo comes to us with the usual amount of
excellent matter. The initial paper, by VIM.
A. Heydecller, is entitled the Recent Progress
of Liberty in France" and in a comprehensive
way gives clear idea of the present political
condition of that country. Reform in Taxa
ton" is ably treated by Worthington c. Ford.
George Butler Griffin contributes an article on
" Inter-Oceanic Communication" and Lieut..
kimbail, u. 5. n, furnishes paper entitled
"A Glance at Our Maratme Affairs" Several
other papers on economic subjects go to make
up an unusually entertaining and instructive
literary budget.
Demorests Maga=ine for August is well filed
with pleasant reading and good Illustrations
The serial -" The Admirals Ward" is well
in interest, and the shorter stories
are meritorious. An article of interest is
" Sandringham Hail." the residence of the
Prince OF Wales; and another is a biographical
sketch of Johan Ludwig Runeberg. All the
ladies viii like to read Jenny June's article ON
" Beauty" and also the Fashions" and
" Household and Fancy Work " departments.
which, with Current Topics" " Homo Art and
Home Comfort" make up an exceedingly
readable number.
