A TIcklish situation.


 Last Saturday evening Sheriff Scott White was at Benson en route to Phe- nix with man named Alfred Smith, consigned to the insane asylum. The crazy man seems rational enough save on one proposition, and that is an idea that Messrs Dan Ross, D. E. Fitch and man named Thompson have con- spired to remove him. Actuated by that crazy notion he one day last week placed Mr. Fitch in very ticklish sit- uation. It was Wednesday morning. Mir. Fitch met Smith in canon near his home, beyond Tombstone. Smith drew a revolver, cooked and leyeled 1t at Fitch, saying that his mind had been burdened by the matter a long time and he wanted the whole truth about 1t.
 Smith went on to tell the astonish- ed and thoroughly frightened fitch that he was satisfied that Ross, Thompson and Fitch had conspired to poison him; that Ross had got Fitch to get him some poison, which Ross had delivered to Thompson who was to give it to Smith in some whisky. And he wanted clear statement from Fitch.
 Recognizing that he had desperate case to deal with Mir. Fitch immediate ly acknowledged the entire charge, telling him the poison he got was CO., caine. But to reduce his reputed con- fession to writing Fitch proposed to Smith that they go to his house, which was near at hand. The ruse prevailed and the crazy man returned bis pistol to its sheath. At the house Fitch got assistance, evaded the insane man, and the others arrested him, took him into Tombstone, where commission of inquiry found him insane and con signed him to the asylum. He has a brother in that institution who was sent there some months ago. ----

i Horrible Mistake.

The populist reformers in Rush county
have made horrible mistake, by which
they are pledged not to vote for a single
man on their state ticket. In making up
their county platform they must have
hunted up the old state platform of two
years ago and took notice of that plank
where it declared against the receiving
OF railroad passes by the servants of the
people. AT any rate they adopted a
resolution declaring that they would not
support any candidate for Office who
carried railroad pass.
Since then they made the appalling
discovery that every state official carries
from one to dozen passes, and makes
liberal use of them. Not only have the
reform officials accepted all the passes
they could get, but the railroad assessors
admit that they carry passes on the
Marquis Of Pnllman's palace cars, whose
assessment was reduced by this board Of
reformers.
