Who They Are.

While the Albuquerque hose team failed to capture the championship fire belt. of the southwest. if a champion belt was offered to the town which could produce the big gest liar, Albuquerque could stand fair show of winning. A special sent from that place to the San Francisco Examiner, speaking of the hose race says: "The Prescott hose running team, made up of sprinters from all over Arizona, won the dry test over five competit- ors." The above item is malicious falsehood, prompted by the stings of defeat, from which the Albu- querque team and its friends sui fered, after trying to take an unfair advantage in the race and losing. The only team which competed for the championship belt, and which attempted to violate the rules gov erning the tournament, and take an unfair advantage in the race, was the Albuquerque team. Even then they lost, and to get revenge on the winning team they have the above telegram sent. In order to vindicate the Prescott team from the false aspersion, We herewith ap- pend the names of the team, their occupation and terms of residence here, there not being a single mem- Der who does not live within a mile or less of the court house: J. NJ. Aitken, captain of the team, and who ran second to the spike, has re- sided here for seven years, and is en- gagged in the cigar, tobacco and fruit business and Is a member of the national ticket brokers associa- ton; E. Bidwell, the spike runner. has resided here for over a year, has been a member of the Toughs hose company for fully year, and is a miner and laborer by occupation; Wm. Osterman, musician, residence 1 years; E. w. French, attorney at law, and probate judge of Yava- pal county, residence 6 years; F. A. Tritle, deputy county recorder, residence 8 years; Ed. Pentland, jeweler, residence 6 years; l.. Kort- man, musician, residence f years; Wm. Whalen, the coupling breaker, is acarpenter and has resided here for3 yeas; ,,S,s.Marker, musician, residence a little over one year: J. F. Coyle, blacksmith, residence 7years; F. E. Andrews, chief of police, has re- sided in the vicinity for from 12 to 15 years. and in Prescott for 3 years; Jack Nelson, the nozzleman, is a teamster and lumberman, having been in the employ of Clark X Ad- ans for five or six years. With one exception probably, that of Bidwell, none of the team are sprinters in the common acceptation of the term, and be resides in Prescott, and has, as stated, been a member of the fire department for overa year. It is a fact, that the team had offers from professional sprinters to join and to participate in the race, but they were declined, the boys pre- ferring to lose the belt if it could not be won honorably and in strict accordance with the rules governing the tournament. Can their Albu querque friends say as much for their teamf
