IN THEIR BEHALF.
What the Enterprise Says
 About It's Contempt Case.
Enterprise.


 The publishers of the Enterprise were arriagned before Judge Richard E. Sloan yesterday for contempt of court. The gravamen of the offense was the publication of a few compli- ments to Brewster Cameron which, by no fair reasoning or unprejudiced in depreciation could possibly be con- strued into either contempt of court or in any manner impeding or ob- structing the administration of jus tice.
 Attention is called to the very spe- cious reasoning-er rather lack of req soning-by the judge in the sentence imposed. The whole question hinged upon the effect the publication might make upon the minds of future jury and the judge assumed that this effect would he such as to impede and ob- struct the administration of justice. There was not the slightest evidence that any juror had been influenced by the publications, and several conven- tent 'ifs" serve to lead up to hypo- ,heticsl condition that was ma de the pretext of visiting the heaviest penal ty on record for offenses of the char acter that this is alleged to be. Even in despotic Russia it would be called an outrage. The judge admitted hay ing instigated or suggested the pro- ceedings, and the apparent vindictive- ness of his sentence and subsequent determination to allow no appeal, even under the plain provisions of the Or ganic Act and the statutes, cannot fail to impress any every unbiased person that he was inspired by temper or something worse, rather than desire for justice The offense, if any there be in the articles referred to, was 8 contempt of Cameron, and if the judge feeis called upon to punish every person who has expressed such, or even worse, contempt, the county jail will contain pretty much every resi- dent having the courage to express his opinion. In the days when they were burning witches at the stake in New England it might have passed for a semblance of propriety, but in the present age when public sentiment and even the liberal courts, sanction the discussion of all public men and matters, it is an infamy without par allel, and proceeds from a narrow minded prejudice or personal enmity arising from our criticism of Cameron.

THE peroration used by Mark Smith ct the close of his speech at Phoenix called forth much comment. It was a beautiful sentiment. He used it in the halls of congress when he first in- troduced the bill for the admission of Arizona, nearly three years ago. At that time it so struck J. c. Burrows, congressman from Michigan, that he requested Mark to repeat it to him and he committed it to memory. Several times since then MT. Burrows has used it on the stump and in congress. The Phoenix Republican, with its charac- teristic evil intentions, credits Bur- rows with being the author of the words and accuses Mark Smith of stealing them. The language used by Mir. Smith is reproduced here:
 She is ready to-day with upliited brow facing the dawn of the mighty future; her loins are girded for a new race: beneath her feet che feels the stir of a marvellous life; her heavens are aglow wilh the light of blazing furnaces. All hsil its incoming; when the glorious day shall come-when its sun shall reach its zenith, the north and the south, and the east and the west, bound together in indissoluble bonds of . common union; then will be enrolled on our banners equal rights, equal freedom to every man under the law, and our ship of state sail forward to grsnder industry and triumph.

THE Yuma Sentinel publishes q story detracting from Mark Smiths victory in securing the S10.OOO appro- priation for the levees at Yuma. Wait ing until the last moment before springing the outrageous lie that he had nothing to do with getting that appropriation, the Sentinel has con- victed itself of that most contempti5le of all crimes, spreading falsehoods when too late to be met with truth. The PRosPEcToR wishes to state right here that to Mark Smiths individual efforts is due the praise Cor that ap- propriation. Had the Sentinel man been hunting for villainous lie he could not have found a meaner one. Had he turned to the Congressional Record he:would have found therein the speeches of MT. Smith on the floor of the House. He would have found the bill as introduced by him, and he would have found further that whe n the bill went to the Senate it was Mark Smiths personal appeals to Senators Dolph and Mitchell that car ried it safe into the presidents haads. Shame upon such ingratitude ss that shown by the Sentinel.

DoN'T forget city politics when election day comes around. Citizens of Tombstone have deep interest in this part of the election day duties which they mus. not neglect. On one side you have the officers who filled the positions for the past two years and on the other a new lot. If you think the past city government has done its duty it is your duty to vote to continue them in office. If you think they have neglected their duties and managed the affairs of the city in bad shape it is your duty to vote against them. This is all there is ia 1t.

THE PRosPEcToR is not yet acquaint- ed with the facts in relation to the case against the Arizona Enterprise for contempt of court. We will have something to say about it later on. It is serious matter. The only anus ing part about the case is the fact that Ex-Judge Barnes, who threw the cd itor of the PRosPEcToR in jail for criticising decision of his, is now one of the defendants in case against himself-he being one of the owners in the Enterprise-for criticising the act of a jury for indicting the publishers of that paper.

EVERYTHING points to the election

EVERYTHING points to the election of Cleveland. The only interest that Arizonans take in the matter is to see . clean sweep made of the federal of- fic holders of the territory. There are many of them who have graced the positions they have held but they will have to go along with those who nave disgraced the places to which they were appointed. Arizona has suffered during the past four years. Let us hope that the next shuffle will not re- suit in as crooked deal as the last one.

THE Arizena Enterprise says that some of the school districts in Cochise county pay teachers to do nothing, and that in Bohn district the teacher goes to the school house and sits alone without pupil in attendance. If this be 90, it is only the fault of those whose duty it is to compel the attendance of school children. The children are there but there is no law to compel them to attend. There is such law on the statute books but it has never become operative in Cochise county. It is in operation in every county in the territory with the ex- csption of Cechise.

Forty years ago all the ice known to
commerce was shipped from Boston.
The cutting of this ice was confined to
ponds in Massachusetts, within a radius
OF twenty miles from Boston. notably
Fresh pond, Smiths pond, Spy pond,
Horn pond and Wenllam lake. Fresh
pond may be regarded as the father
OF the trade. Most of the ice of COM
merce now is outside Of Boston. and
today Boston is frequently obliged to
import ice for home CONSUMPTION
from long distances. Forty wears ago
all during the season the four large ice
wharves IN Charlestown were crowd
ed with ships of all sizes loading for
the East and West Indies, south Ameri-
ca and the southern ports.
In no one branch of Boston COM
merce has there been such radical
change as in the shipping of ice. Ice
furnished ballast as well as paving
freight to all the cotton ships going
south for business, and at one time Il
was chief recommendation to strange
ships In coming to Boston that they
could always procure freight OF ice
at some rate. Ice was an exceptionally
good freight, as it was not amenable to
damage, and was put on board and
discharged free OF cost, and seldom in
volved a commission for procuring or
collecting. Now and then you will
lind an old shipowner or shipmaster
who recalls with pleasure the good old
days OF Boston ice freights.-Dos.on

A Village Of Chess PLAYERS.

In the neighborhood of Halberstadt
in Westphalia, is the village of Stro-
beck, where chess is taught at school
to every young villager. An exami
nation in the game is held annually in
the upper form OF the school, and the
best six players. who, however, have
TO be victorious three times running
are presented with a chess board and
Toasted fora whole long summers dav
The custom il said to have Originated
several centuries ago when a recalci-
trant priest from Halberstadt was sent
INTO exile at Strobeck. Time hanging
somewhat heavily on his hands, he in
structed the peasants in the game of
chess, and ever since then the game
has gone down from generation to
generation. The pride and glory of
the village is an old chess board.

Female Indifference.

Nobody" said a man whose long
residence in New York entities him to
the distinction of being deep and old
observer, lis SO utterly Indifferent to
public opinion as a fashionable wo-
man. She really does not care a rap
one way or the other what the world
thinks of her as long as she has a
chance to exercise her pet hobbies. l
suppose three of the most tremendous
crusades that have ever been made
against womankind were, in the first
place, the movement against wearing
corsets; then the agitation about the
cruelty of women using the dead bod
les of beautiful song birds as orna-
ments for their hats; and thirdly, the
cruelty and injustice of big hats III
theatres. Yet today the women go
gloriously forth laced to the limit,
with their hats covered with the
corpses of beautiful birds, and wearing
hats that would shame the mainsal Of
a down east schooner. Man is OF no
account whatever when he throws
himself against a woman's notion IF
fashion. New York Sun.

The New Fiber Plant.

A new fiber plant has been discov-
cred on the Isle of Trinidad which
promises to be an improvement on ra.
mic. 1t was found by an agricuIturist
named I. J. st. Hill, who has called it
''maholtine, but whose scientific no
menclature is abutilon periplocifo-
lium. The great thing with this plant
is that the ribbons at nearly all times
of the year are easily detached from
the WOODEN portion by simply stripping
them with the hand, and therefore a
decorticating machine is not required
as for ramie. When it is known how
readily the stems allow themselves to
be deprived of their coating of bark
and fiber it will be seen what an ad-
vantage this simple fact gives the new
product over many of the fiber pro-
ducing plants. All that is required is
to cut the stems, which are fully ten
feet long, split the bark at the larger
end and strip off the bark from end to
end without stopping, as fortunately
the stems have no side branches. Sam
Piles submitted to London brokers were
favorably reported on and were val
ued at from S17 to $50 per tom Chi

Referring to the effects of electric
light upon books, a public librarian
says: IAN attempt has been made to
prove that the electric light is, after
all, more injurious to books than gas
1t is certainly true, if paper made from
wood fiber is exposed to the electric
light, or indeed to the sun or to strong
daylight, it will turn yellowish, while
gas flames do not produce any similar
effect. But gas burning in library
acts upon the bindings of books not
merely when they are opened out for
reading, but all the time they stand
closed upon the shelves; so that,
even if we leave the risk of fire out of
the question, the electric light is far
preferable for libraries. What might
be the case if we could produce gas
absolutely free from sulphur, cannot
say" Exchange.

For the reasons given, l advocate
under all conditions a plentiful ad-
dition of water to children's food. In
this connection l would lay stress
upon the fact that. as a rule, small
children receive water only as they
get it in their milk or milk food.
Alike in summer and in winter, it is
probable that the fact seldom occurs
TO mother or nurse that child may
be thirsty without being hungry at the
same time. Certainly many discom-
fort and even sickness in child is
conditioned upon the fact that it has
been compelled to eat in order to get
its thirst satisfied. and often has to
