The affairs of the Hudson Reser-
voir and Irrigation Company are
becoming interesting to those who
have been watching them. Within
the last week dozen suits, each
involving an amount slightly less
than $500, have been fled in JUS
tices courts. In three of them
judgments have been rendered
against the company, and contrary
to expectation, no effort has been
made to get hold of the field notes,
which constitute the company's
only visible assets here, and which
were supposed to have principally
animated the, suits. In other
suits during the summer, which
went against the company, the
judgments were mysteriously and
promptly paid. In the latter cases
the attorney for the plaintiffs will
ingly agreed to stay of execution.
It is said, or surmised, that the
return of j. A., Swenarton from
New York the latter part of this
week will bring relief to the stress
against the company here, and will
be followed by early and satisfac-
tory developments. Republican.

HI. B. St. Claire
REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOR COUNTY
ASSESSOR.


The genial sun of Indiana first
she'd the light of day on the present
Republican nominee for County
Assessor, Mr.. H. B. st. Claire in
1858. He is genuine Hoosier
and was a "schoo) master" for three
years on leaving college in his
native state. His education began
in the public schools and ended in
an Indiana University. He left
the business of teaching to go into
the post Office of his native town as
deputy postmaster where he served
several years, then removed to the
State Of Texas where he acted in
like capacity for time, then en-
tered into the mercantile business,
subsequently, coming to this Terri
tory in 1884. Here he invested in
the stock business at once and has
also been interested at one time
and another in some of our best
mercantile firms giving much of
his time and attention to that bust
ness and amidst it all he has found
time to handle good deal of real
estate, buying and selling property
for himself, however. At present
he is devoting his time to his stock
and is ranching in the valley near
Phoenix. In all his varied pursuits
he has made success of it every
time.
Mr.. st. Claire has never sought
public Office of any kind and has
never held public Office; his great
energy and perseverance has been
turned entirely to his varied busi-
n ss, his interest in politics being
only of passing nature and solely
with a view to securing good pub
lie service.
Mr.. st. Claire is peculiarly and
Mesa free press., 1894-10-19

unusually well equipped for the Of
flee of assessor; it is not probable
that there are ten men in the
county SO well qualified by expert
ence to fill the Office for which he
has been nominated. In the first
place he has a large experience in
varied mercantile business and that
his Judgment has been first class in
the business is evidenced by the
fact that he has been uniformly
successful. Again he has a stock
mans experience of years standing
in growing, feeding and handling
stock, in which business he has
also been successful. Last but not
least Mr.. St. Claire has owned and
handled large amount of city and
country property at one time or
another, for a man who was not
properly in the real estate business,
and his jud gment has not led him
estlay in single instance as to the
value of the property. There are
very few men in ths county SO in
timately acquainted with these
three great sources of cur business
and wealth and there are very few
that have exercised such uniform
good judgment in all these connec-
tions. Among all our citizens
there are probably none that would
make more capable and thorough
assessor than Mr.. st. Claire and
the people generally will recognize
this fact at the polls and vote for
him.

Two years ago the registration Of
Maricopa County was 5000 and

The great register this year is not

1900, an increase of 1926 voters
over two years ago. This increase
is what renders the result of the

Omaha, Sept. 21-The defense in the
Mayor Bemis Impeachment proceed
ings began presenting it's side of the
case today.
The first witness was Guy Doane,
secretary of the park commission. who
gave a recorded history of the pur-
chase of Bemis park. This is the
transaction in which it is sought to
impeach the mayor for participating
in the sale of property to the city while
acting in an official capacity. The
commission instructed it's secretary to
send to the city council a recommenda-
ton that this tract be purchased by the
city for a park
DR.. George Miller, ex-president of
the board of PACK commissioners, testi-
fed that the deal was perfectly legiti-
mate.
George w. Lininger. a former men,
err of the park board, testified that
during his term as a member of the
board, the park system of Omaha was
discussed. Bemis park was finally
selected and purchased by the city for
about 100000. to carry out and COM
plete the plans of the park board for
a complete park and boulevard system
Many other prominent citizens testi-
fled that the city was more benefited
by the sale than Mayor Bemis. The
issue on gambling will come up tomor-

CRASHED INTO THE SLIP.
Steamer Sausalito Wrecked at San
Francisco.

Francisco.
San Francisco, Sept. 21-Going at the
rate of fifteen miles an hour and with
a full head Of steam, the North Pacific
Coast Railroad company's new steamer,
Saucelito, crushed into the new slip
and depot at Saucelito, and inflicted
damages to the amount of $4,000 The
big slip and hydraulic aprons were de-
molished. The huge concrete blocks
that support the apron are a mass of
ruins, as well as the entire lifting gear
of the apron. Captain Wilson, who is
one of the most careful pilots on the
bay, gave the signal to stop when
about 800 yards from the mouth Of the
slip, but the steamer kept ahead at
full speed.
The big steamer hit the spring piles
with such force that the noise of the
collision could be heard all over the
town. The bow of the boat was mashed
to splinters, the restaurant was COM
pletely wrecked, as was also the bar
and sailing gear, damaging the steamer
to the extent of $1,000.
All this time efforts to stop the boats
machinery were of no use, and for five
minutes the steamers powerful ma
chinery kept pushing her farther under
the apron, and tore the lower portion
of the boat into splinters. The force
of the crash wrecked the storehouse of
the company, situated nearly twenty
feet from the slip, and displaced a
track twenty-five feet from the pier
head
