The morning call., 1892-10-19

stanch ana true lAc-
publicans In the Territory, who were more
than a match for the Louisiana lawyer, ana
he was defeated at every attempt he MADE
to become leader.
He played faro one night In Warehouses;
game and lost $1,000 on credit.
Next day he played the "baby act ana
refused to pay up.
Dibble was a marked man after that. LII
was because of this affair that he received
the cognomen of "Blue-cheek Dlbble.
When he wanted the territorial nom ina-
tion for Congress in 1882 he was oadly de-
feated by ex-Judge Porter, his rival hepuD-
loan candidate.
A poor miner had claim which was con-
tested by George Hearst and Haggln, Carr
and Tevis.
TIE ownership Of the famous Bob niger
soil mine was in litigation.
Dibble represented the big capitalists, ana
he succeeded in winning the case
After he won that suit he left the Terri
tory. Had he fingered his life would have
been endangered.
A wave of Indignation swept Arizona
from north to south against Dioble.
The mans record in This city has not been
toe sayGry.
In 1890 Mike de Young formed an ALI
ance with him and had him elected to the
Assembly
What followed is recent history, for
every body in the State knows that the
VIGOROUSLY corrupt Legislature had no
better representative than Henry Z. DlbDle.
The browning bad break he made was
when he held conference with Marion OF
Los Angeles IN State Librarian Leake's
private Office on March II, 1891
After he left that office scraps OF paper
were found in a waste-paper basket which
were afterward pasted together and proved
to be in the handwriting OF Dlbble.
They gave evidence that thirteen votes
had been bought for 81, 500.
There was no mistake about this and the
evidence was perfectly clear.
The story spread like wildfre throughout
tho State and "Dibble's waste basket be-
came quickly known TO every man in Call
forBia.
FELTON, was elected and the House held
ukewarm Investigation which whitewashed
Dibble, but before the people of this State
he stands stu as SCRAP basket Dibble.
In the light of past events, and taking his
present standing in the community Into
consideration, il is considered the height of
mpudeDce on the part OF Mike de Dung 10
put man like Dibble up for Assemblyman.
Dlb0e has started out TO make great
fight for himself, but he will find that his
great efforts are in vain.
An ex-polIceman by the name OF Lily is
Dibble's henchman.
He has established himself in Tempke's
saloon, on the corner of Laguna and Union
streets, aud is promising offices to every
body who will vote for Dibble.
The FOrty-f first District is full of prom
ises Of that kind. and every mothers son
around Cow Hollow could be an Office
holder II he only voted for scrap basket
Dbbie."
But they will not do It.
Even Jack Barnes, who was appointed n
member of the Fire Department recently
through the influence of Dibble, says he
Will fool his patron and vote against him.
Barnes got place through Dbble on
engine 4, but he has since been transferred
TO engine II.
Dibble is often seen about Kelly and
Crimmins' saloon.
He was there Monday night and talked
with a CALL reporter who went there for
the express purpose OF seeing what candi-
dates on the De Young ticket dared TO
openly exhibit themselves at that rocker y
of political crime
