THE FOLEY ot STATEHOOD.

Among the last acts of the Sixteenth Legislature was to pass bill providing for the holding of a convention for framing constitution for a State for Arizona. We are happy to have it in our power to state that Gila county is in nowise committed to the proposition. 'Tis true, however, her representatives in the general assembly voted affirma- lively upon the question, but that act was in contravention cf expressed instructions of the Democratic and Re- publican conventions, held in Globe, September 9th and 20th, 1890, respec- lively. At that time the question of statehood had been we'll and intelligent ly considered and it was found that Arizona had neither the financial basis nor population to support State gov ernment, hence the opposition to in curing such responsibility,
 That the respective political parties were right in that particular the follow ing figures will show. In 1890, the entire indebtedness of Arizona, Terri torial, County, Municipal and School, very closely approximated 8, 427, ,000, and since materially increased, while the assessed property valuation amount cd to only BPS, 050, 234. 73. or an aver age per capita indebtedness of S57, 50, to each man, woman and child, resi- dent of Arizona. The county indebt- edness is divided as follows

uC abONt hSulSs itplSStut botL bonded and floating debt, except for Graham and Pinal which had no bond ed debt when the statement was com piled.
 Graham county's debt has increased to mors than S1lS,000
 The Territorial debt, bonded and floating, with accrued interest, was S766, 2a3. 4S. The indebtedness of in corporated cities of the Territory was S205, ,616.30 estimated school debt s40,0 ,000; interest on county and city debts, s194, 13O.
 It is a significant fact that Gila coun- ty, the best off financially of any coun- ty in the Territory, is strong in opposi- ton to the statehood movement. Her indebtedness Is less than per cent of the assessed valuation of her taxable property, the limit fixed by the Harri- son act; her debt is being steady de- creased, and through the growth of the mining industry of Globe district, q material increase in taxable property is promised. The people of Gila county have hard sense, and earn their living in legitimate channels. There is no room for the political adyenturer, or pettifogger, and Gila does not relish the idea of contributing to the support of the political barnacles of Phoenix and other towns who are the real agita- tors of statehood. The whole argu- ment for statehood for Arizona seems to be that We are now in such a deep hole financially that it makes no differ ence if We sink little deeper, and, per chance, find rock foundation upon which to build our future State edifice
 In this regard We can not better it. lustrate the action of the legislature than by comparing it with the COW, in the spring of year, in starving condi- ton, which entered the margin of q swamp for fresh grass, and after crop ping that within reach went further in- to the treacherous surroundings until she was hopelessly mired.

THE DEAD DYNAMITER.
T HERE is LITTLE DOUBT THAT HE
HAILED FROM BOSTON.
The Father and Mother of Henry L. Nor
cross Are Satisfied That Their Son Ex
ploded the Bomb III Russell Sage's
Ofice-Confrmatory Evidence.

Boston, Dec. 12.-The father and
mother OF Henry l.. Norcross are now
fully convinced that their son was the
man whose insane act in the office of
Russell Sage resulted in his own death.
Reuben Nickerson, an elevator boy,
was quite intimate with Norcross, and
almost daily visitor to his office. His
last visit was week ago W ednesday, at
which time he saw number OF small
walls on sink. Taking one in his hand
he held it up to the light and endeav-
ored to inspect its contents. Norcross
grabbed him by the arm and exclaimed {:
Don't touch thatl" at the same time
taking the bottle and carefully
placing it beside the others. Nor
cross was intensely pale and excited.
Nickerson declares that the photo
graph of the New York dynamiter's
head has most striking resemblance
to the missing man.
George &. Sheldon, who for years
was associated in business with Nor
cross, found points of resemblance in
the lips, nose and general shape OF the
lace, but thought there was differ
ence in the eyes.
New YORK, Dec. 12.-Inspector
Byrnes, who has charge of the official
work in endeavoring to find out who
the bomb thrower was, said today he
had no knowledge that the head found
in Sage's office has been identified.
Russell Sage and other victims of the
explosion are doing well. Sage expects
to return to business next week.

ing Appreciated.


Associated Press Dispatches.
DENVER, Dec 1.-THE strike of the
miners at the mines OF the Colorado
Coal and Iron company, at Crested
Butte, has resulted seriously. Since the
men, mostly Italians and Austrians. are
out, they have been very ugly, refusing
TO allow the company to bring in new
men. They stopped the pumps and
fans, allowing the mines to fill with gas
until there is danger of the mines blow
ing up, and have paraded the streets
heavily armed, threatening death to
any one attempting to assist the COM
pany. Yesterday Sheriff Sharon, Of
Gunnison, arrived with posse of
twenty-five men to take possession and
guard the mines. No sooner had
the sheriff and men alighted
from the train. when they were
attacked bv about 200 armed men,
Italians and Austrians, who began firing
with Winchesters. The sherih's posse
returned the fire with deadly effect,
killing five Italians. Two Austrians
were fatally wounded. The miners re-
treated, and the posse took possession
of the mines and threw up redoubts.
The miners are swearing vengeance
upon every friend of the coal company.
Further trouble is feared tonight. The
governor has called out the state mill
tia, and the troops are now at the ar
mory, ready to start for the scene by
special train at a moments notice.
CHICAGO, Dec. PA Gunnison, Colo,
dispatch says: Sheriff Shores OF Gunni
son county, and posse of twenty-five
men, were fired upon at midnight by
$50 striking miners at the coal mines of
the Colorado Coal and Iron company,
at Crested Butte. The sheriff and posse
were imprisoned and are now besieged.
The latest reports are that five men
were killed. Citizen volunteers have
been called for, to rescue the sheriff and
posse. They are in a most critical po-
sition, being surrounded by Italians
who are armed and in positions where
they can command all approaches to
the works. The fans and pumps at the
works have all been stopped. This has
caused gas to accumulate, and the dan
ger OF an explosion is great. Should it
occur, it would destroy not alone the
works, but nearly all OF Crested Butte.

pointment OF the so-called elisor was
without jurisdiction. The only other
question is: Would petitioner have an
adequate remedy in the ordinary course
of law? If there is such a remedy it
must be by appeal.
AS to the cause OF 'ex-parte Raymond,
the court says: 1.-The distinction be-
tween mere witness and a party in
dicted for felony, is too clear to need
discussion. We are OF the opinion,
therefore, that there is no jurisdiction
in the respondent to proceed with the
trial of the petitioner; that the latter
has no plain, speedy and adequate
remedy in the ordinary course of law,
and that prohibition is the proper
remedy"
In closing his opinion, the justice
states that the questions raised are re-
viewable upon appeal that it is
deemed unnecessary to discuss them
now.

THE RAMSEY MURDER.
The Preliminary Examination of George
Baxter Commenced.

The preliminary examination oil
George Baxter for the murder OF J. B.
Ramsey was commenced yesterday be-
fore Judge Owens. J.. NJ. Damron APP
peared for the defendant. Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Diehl represented the dis
trict attorneys office.
The first witness called was ex-Police
Officer Vignes. He testified that he
was coming down the stairway of the
Phillips block, when he noticed Ram
sey, Baxter and Mock starting to come
up. Ramsey said:
81 am going up to settle this matter
peaceably. l don't want you to follow
me-"
Baxter said: "You black -.
I will settle with you now"
Ramsey and Mock started upstairs.
Baxter followed after them and fred
two shots at Ramsey.
J. H. Todd, an ex-policeman, also
testified to the shooting. Just before
the shooting this witness heard Baxter
say: cd d--n you, l have been
looking for you all day." Ramsey re-
piled: Don't shoot me, George"
Todd stated that ne did not see Vignes
there, and the latter testified that he
did not see Todd. These two ex-officers
appear to be at loggerheads, and their
stories do rot agree as to the remarks
made by either man in regard to the
shooting.
Coroner Weldon testified to holding
the inquest and making post mortem
examination. The examination was
then continued until Monday.
