She stealing line is at present located in
or around the town and embraces ia
forsble opportunity for picking the
pockets of slumb ering victims. But a
few days ago Ben Singletary had his
trousers pockets rifled to the amount
Of six or eight dollars, but the boldest
steal yet made public occurred last
Saturday evening. DIR. Jones and Capt.
Monck, who room in the Heineman
Gill building back Of DIR. Jones' office,
retired as usual, leaving their clothes
and valuables in the room while they
slept on the veranda.
On awakening Sunday morning their
trousers seemed little light. and upon
investigation 1t was found that the uoc-
tor was minus a valuable gold watch
and chain that has been in his family
nearly or quite 100 years, besides his
pocketbo which contained between
SIS and $50. Capt. Monck found a de-
ficit OF about sl4, IS Of which belonged
10 himself, while the balance was ex
press money. Besides this, a Column
bisn half dollar with an ink stain en-
circing the face OF Columbus, was also
missing. No clew has as yet been dis
covered. The manner in which the
things were taken, as well as the class
of valuables, aside from the money
would indicate that the thief is at least
al intelligent one, and it is evident that
the watch and seal will be disposed Of
in some other locality than Tempe.
Until recently property even OF great
value has been considered safe, as petty
thieving has not been practiced to any
extent in the town. For this reason
the citizens are anxious to find the cul-
prit, and ii possible make an example
of him to avoid repetition OF the cow

A Travelling Man Arrested.

A ripple OF excitement was created in
Tempe Sunday when it was learned
that Emil Hirsch, one OF he best known
travelling men on the coast, had been
arrested at midnight In his room at the
Tempe Hotel, but when the cause OF his
arrest was made known the situation
looked ridiculous and absurd, as Mr..
Hirsch has four times year, during
the past eight years, visited this town
in the interest of ROthsChild Bros, 81.
Louis, the largest hat firm in the United
States.
1he charge Of malicious mischief had
been preferred against him by +. u.
Frankenherg, president OF the Farmers
and Merchants bank. The claim was
based on the fact that Mr.. Hirsch had
driven the bankers horse and buggy to
Mesa on Saturday afternoon, without
the knowledge or consent OF the owner.
Ii appears that Ben Singletary, the
liveryman, had taken the drummer's
baggage to Mesa and single rig was to
be left at the Tempe hotel for Mr..
Hirsch, who would follow later on. For
some reason double team was sent up
10 the hotel instead and the travelling
man, not suspecting it had been left for
him looked around for single rig, and
the only oe in sight was one hitched in
front OF the ice depot, which he took
and drove to Mesa. Upon returning it
was left At the livery stable, and when
the mistake WAS found out Mr.. Frank
enberg's son was paid for the use of The
rig. At II o'clock, however, the owner
of the horse came to the hotel and sent

ner's room, aud in forcible language
demanded the money, which was at the
time refused. but with the explanation
that in the morning everything would
be adjusted il he owed him anything.
Me-. Frankenberg offered to take it out
OF his hide" but owing to the lateness
of the hour the offer was declined, after
which warrant for Hirsch's arrest
was issued and served by Constable
Fellows. A. j. Peters went on the tray
cling mans bond and joseph II. Camp
boil OF Phoenix was telephoned for to
defend the case, which was set for trial
at | a. m, but before the time for trial
the case was settled by the payment of
IS 30 costs by the defendant, under ad.
vice of counsel, as Mr.. Hrsch was anx.
ons to get ont on the road again. The
case was an unfortunate and harrassing
one to the drummer, who no doubt
took the horse by mistake and thought
the extra $40 in the bill little high for
unusual wear on the buggy and the
wounded feelings OF the owner.
La,er-He paid $3.50 and costs
rather than remain and fight the charge
of malicious mischief, although no one
doubted his ability to win the case. He,
however, considered time more valuable.

ANYTHING TO AVOID LIVING
ISSUES,


In every campaign SINCE the Peo-
ple's party came into existence, re-
publicans have sought to escape
discussion Of the real questions before
the people. In the earlier campaigns
they dealt only in fslsehood, misrep-
resentstion and personal abuse.
While they have not abandoned these
methods, they have enlarged the
scope of their operations to some ex-
tent and in certain directions, but
only to vary the means employed to
divert attention from questions Of
land monopoly, transportation mo-
nopoly, finance monopoly and monop-
oily Of control Of the products of in
dustry in general. This year they
are exceedingly anxious for public
discussion of the merits Of the legis-
lative muddle of last winter. With
them it is anything to avoid questions
of public policy.
George L. Douglass, we under
stand, has sent a challenge TO the
governor to engage in such a discus
sion. Why does he not challenge
Mr.. Dunsmore or some other member
of the legislature? He well knows
that the governor will not so far for
get the dignity of his official position
as to go out upon the stump and en-
gage in public discussion with a man
who, during the Legislative Difficult
ties, was in open rebellion against the
legally constituted authorities of the
state; but he thinks a refusal to do
so will afford republican editors an
other opportunity to howl Repub-
lican leaders have no use for the
Legislative muddle only as they can
lie about it; and Populists have no
desire to escape a fair discussion OF
the actual differences between the
parties. The people understand the
character Of these differences now q
great deal better than republican
leaders are willing to admit; and
while Popullsts will not shrink from
q discussion of these differences, they
do not intend that the living issues Of
the day shall be lost sight of in con-
sequence. Chalk this in your hat

SHAMEFUL PRACTICES.

The Washington correspondent of
the Chicago Times writes very plainly
upon the subject Of senatorial stock
gambling, and the methods pursued
by United States senators to bull and
bear the market. He says:
There was another slump all along the
line to-dsy. Markets are dull, and leading
securities familisrly gsmbled with on the
New York board are gasping for breath and
weakly sinking lower and lower. Do you
know what the reason isI
Well, a great big piece of the reason for
these lower off-oolored values in stocks is
directly due TO the fact that quite number
of the members of the sacred senate Of
these United States, who, between "deliber-
ations" in the senate and "speculations" at
Cham berlain'g, find frequent chances to win
or lose stack Of blues or two at gambling,
have been telegraphing their brokers to sell
this or that stock short.
This action on the part Of our senator's,
whom the ordinary board of trade sharp re-
CARDS as possessing peculiar information
and coming under the head of what is
called by the fraternity as sure-thing
workers." has caused a great falling Off
has beared the markets.
This idea Of senator specializing on the
street and buying this and selling that on
margins and in hopes of profit need hOr-
rify no one. Bless you, many Of our sena-
tors are at it all the time. They will deny
il and brand il as lie, perhaps, but it is
no less absolutely true. And there is not
any one who could get resolution through
the senate right now to investigate senator
ial stock jobbing during the period even OF
the Wilson bill debate.
They would frown 1t down, howl it down,
vote il down in q minute. But the stock
jobbing is true just the same, Half OF the
senators are into stock speculation right
now up to the hub.
To-day the senate is mighty little better
than q stock board There are bull senators,
and bear senator's. They buy and they sell.
Il is no secret, and every spectator will tell
you the same, that the most powerful re-
cent influence in depressing and skyrooket-
ing stock values has been the present six
weeks Aght over finance in congress.
This is no new revelation. When
the so-cslled Sherman law OF 1890
was under discussion, it is a we'll
known fact that senators and MEM
bers of congress were identified with
syndlcates which purchased immense
smO6nts ofsilver bullion in snticipa-
tion of rise in price on the passage
of that law. It will be remembered
that when that act became a law, the
price did rise to about ST. 20 per ounce.
These syndicates unlosded their ac-
cumulations at an immense profit In
which senators and representatives
shared, after which the price began
an immediate decline which has con-
tinued to this day. The Times cor
respondent further indicates the
manner in which the present silver
discussion is beng utilized for gain
as follows: 49,,

they never assumed these prerogs-
tives in the early days Of the repub-
lie.
The growth of corporations and
the multiplication of millionaires,
however, are elements of our national
progress which have promoted these
assumptions of Judicial authority un-
til to-day statute law is valueless un-
til the courts have passed upon it;
and we have, in fact, very little ehec-
tive law that is not 'judge made law"
Under such circumstances, why
should the people continue to sus-
tain the expense of legislatures,
either state or national? If the courts
have the authority to nullity any law
that may be enacted, why not do
away with the Legislative depart
ments Of our governmental system,
and refer every legal question di-
rectly to the courts for final adjudi-
cation? Why not change the form
Of government to correspond with the
practice? Why not establish judi
cial oligarChy in nGnSe, as well as IN
fact?
Would such a form of government
be likely to serve the interests of the
masses Of the American people? Are
the people Of this country prepared
to favor such q revolution in our form
of government? You may answer
that they are not. In reply, we
would inquire how much of change
would be necessary to accomplish
such a revolution? The change would
be one of form only. It would
merely consist in dispensing with leg
islative bodies whose acts are now en-
tirely void and useless unless
sustained by the courts. The change
then would be a very magnificent
one, and one in the interest of econ"
omy; and if the people are really not
disposed to submit to such q Judicial
oligarChy, they must take steps in the
other direction to re-estsblish gov
ernment of the people and for the
people. In doing this, some improve
ments may be suggested from past
experience.
It ls q well-moWn fact that in all
judicial proceedings the success of q
litigant depends much less upon the
Justice Of his cause than upon the
skill of his attorney in the employ
ment of legal technicalities and the
manipulation Of courts and iuries. No
man who has had much experience
in litigation will be likely to dispute
this proposition. It becomes q ques-
tion, therefore, for the people to con-
slider whether there is not better
way to secure the ends Of justice than
by continuance of our present sys-
tenn. We believe that there is, and
we believe, further, that this better
way lies in the total abolition of our
entire judicial system, and the estsb-
lishment in its stead of an equitable

100 pounds to the inch. The Same inspec-
ton was made of the auxiliary machinery.

spent in making an examination OF the
turrets, but here. like the other parts in
spec,ed. all was found satisfactory. The
board in making its report has pronounced
the machinery to be all that the contract
required. In its report. however, the
board has made some minor suggestions.
