 RESOLVED, That by the death of Brother Fredericks the Order Uni versal has lost one of her most loyal sons and Prescott Lodge, No. l, one of her warmest supporters and most faithful members, that words can not fitly express our sorrow nor de- fine our loss.
 That we extend to his bereaved family and loved ones our deepest sympathy and point to his many virtues for comforting reflection. That these resolutions and pream- bles be engrossed upon our records, and certified copy be transmitted. by the Keeper of Records and Seal, to the family of our departed broth CT. E. w. FRENCH,

 BRETHREN:-Your committee ap- pointed to draft resolutions on the death of Bro. w. H. Throne, beg leave to report as follows:
 The last summons which comes to man, came to our brother, William Henry Throne, on July 10, 1892; and he has gone to swell the number in the unknown land. If we are to judge of a mans life and of his thoughts by his last words and acts, Broteer Throne had no regrets, ex- cept sorrow for leaving loved ones; and no fears of that which is to come. To him, Death was not the Grim Tyrant, but the kind messen- ger. Here where he was known, what need is there to recount his life. As citizen, as a churchman, as Past Grand Master of the I. c O. F., he left to his children a record to which they can point with pride, and strive to emulate.
 In lodge and chapter, it can be said that he w.s just and upright man and Mason" What better epi- taph could man desire.
 To his sorrowing wife and chil. dren we can offer our sympathy, but the untarnished record he leaves them will better assuage their grief while faith in his faith, and hope in his hope of immortality, will com, fort them in this, their hour of sor, row.
 RESOLVED, That this tribute to our deceased brothers memory be spread upon our records and a copy be given the daily press for publication (Signed.) MORRIS GoLDwArER,

Good Advice,

The San Francisco Report gives good advice when it says; "Ii
 Arizona citizens would bestir them
 selves and build a few railroads in stead of waiting for statehood, state hood woui1 cnme in wink. The
 trouble in Arizona, as is has been in California, is the 'manana' spirit this eternal waiting. If you ask a Mexican to do something for you at once he will say, 'Si Senor; man. ana'-Yes sir; tomorrow. It is that spirit that has kept California back and is now retarding the progress of Arizona. It may be that Cali fornis's glorious climate fosters the growth of such a spirit, but Arizona that is different.
 "In Wilkins Micawber Dickens drew the perfect figure of the aver age Californian, and the average Californian is the same as the aver age Arizonan-always waiting for something to turn up.' Take the question of statehood for Arizona, It has been the dream of Arizona for twenty years to be a state, and pending the realization of that dream-picture the people have stood still, or rather sat still. Why do they not get up and stir themselvesi From Frisco, Utah, to Phenix is only step, so to speak. Well, then why do the Arizonans not build to connect with the Union Pacific! Why has not road been builtlong ago connecting Phenix and Prescott' Why has Tombstone no railway! Build railways and you will find the question of statehood taking care of itself. Arizona is doing very we'll as a territory, any how.
 ''Of course Arizona may say it has two railways already, but California may say the same. We have two raiiways-400 miles apart to all in tents and purposes. Arizona's railways are far apart, too. Join them. Bring them together. Cal ifornia is about to have a competing road. How about Arizonai Cali. fornia is about to march in the pro- eession of progress. Will Arizona fall into linefr

A ASSASSINATED.
Torn sGraham i. Shot from Ambush,

Torn Graham is shot from Ambush.
 Thomas Graham was ambushed Tuesday morning, near Tempe, and mortally wounded. The crime was cowardly one, direcly traceable to past feud. Ed Tewksbury and John Rhodes were the assassin..
 The circumstances of the killing are clearer than usual in the case, and there appears to be no dispute as to facts.
 Tom Graham for several years has been living quietly on a quarter sec tion of land south of the river, about six miles southeasterly of Phenix. Yesterday morning he loaded some barley upon his wagon and started with it for Tempe. He had arrived at a point opposite the school house of the Double Buttes district, when, hearing a noise of horses feet behind him, he turned to see his mortal foes, Ed Tewks- berry and John Rhodes in the act of leveling their rifles upon him. Graham, who was unarmed, at once started to jump from the grain sacks, upon which he was seated, but was too late. Two shots rang out in almost perfect unison and he fell from his wagon into the road with a mortal wound in his body. The murderers then rode coolly up. Rhodes handed his Winchester rifle to Tewksberry. who, thrustlng one of the weapons into saddle scab- bard. rode over to the prostrate man, and once more leveled his gun with the evident intention of finish ing him. He apparently was satis- fled, however, that the wound al- ready inflicted was a mortal one, so he turned away, both riding slowly of into thicket on the north side of the road.
 Graham retained consciousness all through the dreadful ordeal, though his body was entirely paralyzed. He settled his worldly affairs and made an anti-mortem statement in- cluding the above facts. He was positive as to the identity of his as- sailants.
 He fingered about eight hours, and despite all the science Of sur gery and medicine died at 3:3O p. m.
 Tewksberry rode of eastward. He was we'll mounted and made very good time. The posse from Tempe and Phenix arrived at Mesa only about half hour after the game had departed.
 On the north side of the road, be- hind high and dense clump of thick brush, were found hoof prints of the horses ridden by Tewksberry and Rhodes, while waiting in am bush for their expected victim.
 Graham was sure there were two shots fired, in which event one of the skilled marksmen must have missed.
 Graham, after being compelled to leave the mountains, took up his residence in Phenix, being quite popular among all who knew him. About six years ago he married Miss Annie Melton, daughter of Rev. Melton. Several children have been born to the union, but one only sur wives.
 His death'removes from the earth every Graham who ever came to Arizona. The only member of the family now living is brother, who is engaged in business as real es- tate agent at Tacoma, Washington. And Tewksberry is the last of his clan. There were five brothers, once and their deeds against the Apaches were worthy of all praise. But violence has laid low all save one, and he, murderer, is now a fugitive from iustica.
