A Phenix correspondent writes to the PROTECTOR as follows regarding the reported endorsement of Mickey Stewart by the Peoples party of Mari copa county:
 see by your valuable paper that you were misinlormed in relation to the Peoples party in Maricopa county, stating that we endorsed Mickey Stewart for congress. We have not endorsed anyone for any office what soever and furthermore we do not pro- pose to do co. We propose to stand by the platform adopted by the Peo- pls's party at Omaha on July 4th. We number at the present time be- tween 400 snd 800 in this county, and they are coming every day. Overtires have been made to us by unprincipled scoundrels, and I assure you they have been spurned by us as a ratile- snake would haze been.

a Dream OF the Eutuye.

Now that Dame Shipton's prophecy
has been in measure fulfilled, and one
form of conveyance goes without
horses, - we can look forward with con
iidence to the time when the young man
who wishes to give an evening pleasure
to his girl friend will be able to go to
the carriage keeper-he will not be a
stable keeper then-and order phae-
ton or top-bucEy for two with storage
battery for ten miles slow drive. while
the sporting youth will call for two
minute buggy, and the more timid for
something to 90 ten OF fifteen miles an
hour. Then the family man will want
a caryall for nine, and electric plants in
the larger towns will advertise "battcries
newly stored for any number of miles
required, and the man who wants to
make an extended trip will not have to
give the horse hay and oats, hut VIII
just get in another supply of electricity
and so on with carriage that Will not
need TO rest at every hotel by the way,
while the pneumatic tires will do more
than the springs have done to make the
motion easy over rough roads. 1t may
sound fanciful, but all are apparently
within the possibilities Of your day

years 1t will not be greater progress
than has been made within ten years

The Rational Figures.

The official returns are not all i'll yet,
but enough is known to show how each
state registered its verdict in the recent
national contest.
There are some rather curious facts
in connection with the table of the cleo
torial vote of the states as now made up.
1t is found, for example, that the cleo
toral vote of three states is divided. In
Michigan, of course, this was expected,
as change in the law of that state pro-
vided for the election of presidential
electors-eXcept for the state at large
by congressional districts Ohio, which
at no time in the campaign was regarded
as any ways doubtful, was so closely
contested that one of the electors on the
Republican ticket was defeated by his
Democratic opponent. This was owing
to the Australian ballot, which many of
the voters did not understand well
enough to vote intelligently. The votes
thrown out by reason of serious defect
would have elected all the Democratic
electors instead of only one. Michigan
gave Cleveland six votes and Oregon
gave Weaver one. The remainder of
the states went solid and here is the way
they voted:

II :?

what fool | was" remarked a
wealthy Denver man at the Markham, a
few weeks ago. Seven years ago l
sold a tract of land on Downing avenue
for less money than one block of it can
be bought for now" Let us suppose n
case Suppose this man and other
real estate owners or Denver, instead of
having sold at fair figures seven years
ago had held for prices that rule now,
the result would have been: People
would to-day be herding cattle on
Downing avenue, and the gentleman
referred to would be ''out" seven years
taxes, would be land poor, would be
selling to-day for the prices offered him
seven years ago. That is mossbackism.
The way to get rich in the real estate
business is to sell and buy and encour-
age the outside world to come in and do
the same thing.-Durango Southwest.
What whole lot of truth there is in
the above. 1t probably never occurs to
the fellow who wishes to "hold on" that
there is such thing as holding on too
long.

The Deer sIaushtering Case.

AS mentioned in the last issue of The
HERALD Game Warden Taylor was
stirring things up among the violators
of the game laws in the Rangely pre-
cinct last week, and the result was the
arrest of "Old Man" Fletcher and his
son Grant, charged with hagrantly
violating the game laws.
The accused were brought before
Justice Burnham on Tuesday but the
case was postponed until next day when
further postponement was had on oc-
count of absence of material witnesses.
Finally, on Thursday the wheels of
justice began to revolve. County At
torney Ryan appeared for the State and
the old man acted us his own attorney.
He called for jury of twelve and
started in by setting up the plea that he
had bought the three hundred odd deer
hides, found in his possession, from the
Indians, and this defence was too much
for the prosecution-they couldn't prove
lie hadn't.
The acquittal of the Fletchers does not
mean an unqualified victory for the
hide hunters; it simply means that old
Fletcher twho is pretty cute in his way
set up a strong defence and stuck to it,
1t was known that the Indians had been
up on Spring Creek killing deer and
this fact added plausibility to his plea;
hence the acquittal of himself and son.
Notwithstanding the outcome of the
case, there exists feeling i'll the minds
of many that Fletcher didn't get all his
hides from the Indians, and there is
strong circumstantial evidence in sub
sanitation of this idea.

1t will be seen that MIR. Cleveland has
Il majority of Il2 electoral votes i'm the

states out of tue count altogether, Glove
land still has as many votes as Harrison
and Weaver combined. Cleveland could
have lost New York. New Jersey and

ful, or he could have lost all the states
