MORTALITY FROM DRINK.
Intemperance Claims Annually 10000
Victims in the United States.

Statistics collected carefully from all
the states of the Union show that
$50, 900 people are every year the
victims of intemperance.
There are two classes Of victims Of
intemperance. One class comprises
those who die from the effects of drink
on themselves. The professor restricts
in his estimate of the victims to this
class, and if the evils of intemperance
were confined to the drinkers his remarks
may be correct. But the evil effects
of ntemperance extend far beyond the
drinkers of the poison and injure the
lives of tens of thousands of others.
These die from the indirect effects Of
intemperance.
Drunkards all have or have had pa
rents. Many Of them are brothers or
sisters, husbands or wives, parents,
employees and neighbors. Who can
count up the number of deaths that
result from the neglect, cruelty, violence,
or other things done by the intemper-
ate to those who su stain these various
relations, or the number of deaths from
drunken brawls, exposures, accidents
on railroads and elsewhere occasioned
by drunken employees ?
A large number of the murders and
suicides are also the result of intemper-
ance. One days papers report these
instances A Waterman, l.. S. Kyes,
fatally shot his wife and Mrs Mary
Weir, a neighbor Kyes came home
drunk, and going into the room where
Mrs. Weir was nursing his wife he got
angry because Mrs. Weir removed his
heavy overcoat from the bed of the
sick woman and shot first the wife,
then the neighbor and last himself
Were not these two women the victims
of intemperance
Some months ago in the town OF
Garfield, Whitman county, WASH, a
man was licensed to keep saloon.
Two men of influence in the village
refused to join in the effort to hinder
the license. A son of one of these
mon became intoxicated with whisky
from the saloon and suffered exposure
which brought on disease of which
he died. In December last nearly half
dozen boys of the town got drunk in
the saloon, and going out from 1t they
met and attacked the other man who
would not oppose the license, killing
him. These two persons were the
victims of intemperance.
The New York Weekly Witness
states the case of small child Of a
saloon keeper who unseen got hold OF
and drank nearly pint of whisky and
died from the effects of it. The deaths
from the indirect results of lntemper-
ance are more numerous perhaps than
those from the direct effects. Who can
enumerate the terrible list of parents
who have died of grief and the neglect
of drunken children, of wives and chill
dren who have died from the neglect
and brutality of drunken husbands and
parents They are all the victims Of
intemperance. -PreSbyteyian Banner

HE is UP ON SOCIETY.
The Editor of the Arizona "Kicker" is
no SLOUGH.

ABOUT SNUBs. When we established
The Kicker, we were loneso me look
ing man. We were dead broke for
cash, hard up for clothes and we made
no pretense as to grammar, poetry or
oratory, but in establishing the paper
we also determined to establish our
self in society. In fact, we determined
to lead it. The people rebeled at the
innovation, but we persisted. 1t gradu-
ally dawned upon the populace inhabit-
ing this plateau that we knew the diff
ference between standing up to dish
of fried bacon and sitting down to a
six course dinner, and they crowded
back to give US room.
As editor, mayor and senator, there
is no doubt of our being the Ward
McAllister of very large extent of
territory, but now and then an indi-
vidual rises up and attempts to hurt
our society feelings. Such was the case
last Friday evening when Mrs. Colonel
de Verde of Arizona place gave birth
day party and left us out in the cold.
She told some of her friends that she
did it to rebuke our egotism, and we
were no doubt rebuked. In leaving US
out in the cold Mrs. de Verde brought
disaster upon herself. Viewed from
the McAllister standpoint, her party
was a flat failure. Half the people
present used the finger bowls to drink
from, the coffee was sweetened with
New Orleans molasses, and she was
eleven napkins short when refresh
ments were served. To further rebuke
us she invited the wretched old critter
whom we are obliged to refer to as ouI
"esteemed contemporary" and he sal
at the head of the table and hollered
for tripe and lemonade and corneo
beef No wonder the party broke VI
at 10 o'clock and rushed the gate OF
its hinges in the mad desire to ge
away Yesterday morning Colonel d.
Verde was taken to Wyoming undel
arrest. We have known for year tina
he was "wanted" there. When th'
colonel conspred with his wife to pou
ice water down our social spinal col
umn, we felt it our duty to send of
brief telegram giving his location We
are not revengeful man, but we hav'
policy to carry out. We have PRO
vided ourself with a swallow tailed coat
white vest, billed shirt and other ad
iuncts. We have read up our etiquette
We know when the celery should b
removed and the fried eggs brought IN
We know when the salad should b
retired and the ice cream quietly sub
stituted. An attempt to snub US ma
Justly be considered blow at societ
and will be certain to result in disaste
to the snubber.

was received. If there had been
record of such notes properly kept
it would have been easy to deter
mine what notes were missing.
From the best information I can
secure by this examination 1 am
led to believe that two notes, one
of $4,000 and one of $500, total
$13, 800 given by Messrs. Jacobs &
Neugass, were used in the purchase
of the one-half lot and building ad-
joining the bank bnilding. The
property was bought for 1900.
and these notes used in payment
but no entry was ever made as to
the purchase Of the property or the
distribution, of the notes. The
same may be said with reference to
the purchase Of the property known
as the Cauthorn warehouse prop
erty, and also the property mort
gagged by T. J. Blair to secure GER
tain notes and which was sold un-
der an execution to the Messrs.
Job. No entries were ever made Of
these matters, and these notes with
a few hundred dollars of outlawed
notes will practically make up the
deficiency and this I believe to be
Ia correct explanation Of the mat
ter. ..:s
I am satisfied, gentlemen, that
no monies have been diverted from
the proper care and custody of the
bank by either of the Messrs. JOB,
except the investment made in the
purchase Of the mill property and
it's subsequent account, and the
purchase of the real estate men
toned and the record of which is
to be found upon the. records of
this county and their own personal
indebtedness, to the bank. The
valuation set upon the assets Of
Messrs. Hamilton, Job & Co., by
the assignee is of course on the
supposed depreciation always oc-
casioned by the forced closing of
ANY business. and shows large de-
ficit. The ultimate result as to
the amount of the dividend will
depend largely. upon the careful
administration of it's affairs. "
