CAUSE AND EFFECT.
The Reason Why the Pros9ec- tor Was Rounded Up for Pub. fishing an Item of News.

Winth oi tuc U. Q. uarenai OHlC6 at Tucson, attempts to shield that den of iniquity from blame in the recent per secution of the PRosPEcToR for pub fishing au item of news regarding a lottery prize. The Enterprise inti- mates that there was no spite work about it; that the marshal's office had nothing to do with it. and that the U. S. attorney was the only person who was to blame for the partiality shown the entire prsss of the territory with the exception of the PRosPEcToR, which paper was alone pulled for an alleged violation of the anti-lottery law, which nearly every paper in the territory violated by publishing the same item for which the PRosPEcToR was indicted. The Enterprise knows it is wrong when it says that the U. S. marshal's office was not responsible. In order that the position of the PRosPEcToR may not be misunderstood and the public be misled by the weak kneed organs that tremble at the sight of U. s. star, few words ot explan- ation will be justifable. In the first place everyone knows that Deputy Shilliam worked up the case against the PRosPEcToR. He admits it and is entitled to all the praise for so doing. The reason for his animosity was the crime which the PRosPEcToR commit ted in thwarting a well-concocted plan to make away with Chinamau who had been unfortunate enough to be wounded by Apaches in Sonora and brought to Tombstone for treatment. On the night of Nov. 1lth, nearly a year ago, while s. c. Bagg was eating dinner about : o'clock his attention was called to something that wss out the house. He arose from the table and went onto the back porch onto which Dr. Goodiellow's office window opens. Looking through the window he beheld the deputy marshal handing a paper to the Chinaman in question, and trying to make him understand that he was under arrest.
 The unfortunate celestial, with his head bound up and his heart bowed down, accepted the situation and start ed down the stairs with the deputy Dr. Goodfellow had just gone to Tue son and Dr. Hamilton had just come come from Los Angeles. The China- mans life had been saved by Dr. Good fellow and Dr. Hamilton had fallen heir to him by reason of his succeed ing Dr. Goodfellow. The Chinsman was doing odd jobs around the doctors office during his convalescence. While the Chinaman was at the hospital there hac been rumors of an effort te kidnap him after getting him to sign papers giving away his title to claim for 2,50O that he had against the Cananea Mining Co.,, of Sonora, whose property he was defending when he was attacked by Apaches. As soon as Mir. Shilliam and the Chinsman start ed down stairs the PRospEcToR man went down his stairs but missed the I pair in the darkness. He went immsdi- ately to the office of a well-known at- forney and secured his services in the hunt. The latter was successful in finding the party in the U. s. court room with the door closed and the cur
 tain down. He came back and re- ported and MT. Bagg hsstened toward that point. Just as he reached the door the U. g. Commissioner, MT. Shilliam and Dr. Hamilton emerged
 from the room. The Doctor had come in st the last m oment and secured . postponement of the case until day
 light. The hearing had been fixed for
 I2 o'clock the next day. At that hour
 there were present in the court room
 Deputy Shilliam, Court Commissioner Swain, Dr. Hamilton, the accused and
 the editor of the PRosPEcroR. The balance of the story is clipped from the PRosPEcToR of the 18th of Novsm- Der, and was entitled
 AN ACRE OF FUN.
 "A few minutes after twelve A. L. Grow, deputy collector. came in, which was the beginning of the fun. He was asked to be sworn and he fistly refused to accept the invi stion till he had relieved himself of a laree amoun
