All of the U. s. prisoners sent to Yuma are short termers. None of them sentenced to more than one year are sent there by the U. s. judges while all of the long termers are sent to San Quentin. There is nothing in boarding a prisoner for one dollar a day for a period of six months when the law requires the superintendent to give him a suit of clothes, a railroad ticket worth $5 and $5 in cash upon his retire ment. A three-year man could be kept at profit. Why are they sent to California?-Prospector.

It is stated that the Bowie road will be completed to SolomonviIle within a month. The road should prove to it's constructors one of the most profitable branch lines in the territory, passing as it will through the rich valley of the npper Gila and supplying the freight traffic for the San Carlos Indian reservation, as we'll as for the Globe copper mire. The road will be an immense benefit to the public also. It will mean a reduction in the cost Of mining supplies, which will develop a most marked mining revival in the Globe region, one of the richest in mineral in the territory. Where there is now one ton of ore shipped, it is not an exaggeration to say that there will be one hundred when the new road is in operation. Graham county will be benefited by a large influx of farmers and mining men. The addition to her tax-roll will place her in position where she will soon take rank in the first class list. The same may be said of Gila county.-Star.

MONDAY. SEPTEMBER Il, 1897
MURDER AND SUICIDE.

Portland yesterday had sensational
murder and suicide in the killing of
Mrs. Mabel Calvin by John W. Stengele.
The woman in the case was the daugh-
ter of Mr.. S. Forehand, manager and
principal owner of the2 2Forehand Arms
Co. of Worcester, Mass. Mrs. Calvin
was about 29 years of age, and came to
Portland about year ago, it is said for
the purpose of getting divorce. She
met Stengele and it was case of love at
first sight, which resulted in a promise
to marry as soon as the marital ties by
which Mrs. Calvin was bound could be
severed. The lady tired of her bargain,
it seems, but found it difficult to shake
the infatuated youth to whom she was
engaged.
Sunday Stengele deliberately followed
her and accosting her as she alighted
from a street car, was repulsed and told
by his victim that she did not want to
be bothered by him. Whereupon he
drew his pistol and shot her through the
body and then the head. Stopping
only long enough to assure himself that
his victim was dead, he placed the muz-
zle of the pistol against his head and
blew the vacuum out of it.
His frieuds say he was insane, but
this is trash. The act was that of a
selfish, self-willed fool, who because for
sooth he could not possess the toy he
wanted, destroyed it and himself. The
woman had her share of blame be-
cause she had no business being
on with the new love before she was off
with the old. Had Stengele confined
his efforts to putting an end to his own
life, it might be attributed to insanity
but the killing of the woman he pro-
fessed to love was a cowardly crime COM
mitted for the same reason a burglar
kills the man he is robbing, the desire to
possess that which does not belong to
him, through force. The woman dead is
not to be pitied, if living her life had
been tied to that of her murderer. Such
love as his is fitted for the stygian dark
ness of the lower world, the tie that
binds Nemesis to the Furies, and makes
the imps of selfshness howl with
delight.

WOMANS RIGHTS.

The fight in Kentucky is over and
Breckenridge is downed. Owens beats
him in the district by handsome ma
jority, and Breckinridge takes his de-
feat philosophically and says he will
support sthe democratic nominee. The
fight is peculiar one in many respects,
the most striking of which is that the
women of the district took sides with
their sister as against her betrayer. In
this respect the case is decidedly unique.
It has been truly said thousands of
times that man may be guilty of Of
lenses against morality and nothing
will be thought of it; but a woman who
once steps aside is condemned forever.
As a great Irish orator put it, Virtue,
like an umbrella, once lost is gone for
ever" This is preeminently true. The
man is forgiven, the woman damned for
all eternity. The worst of It is that
however much the men might be dis
posed to lift her up and reclaim her, the
women are her judges and executioners.
Woman has the correction of this evil
in her own hands, and when she treats
both parties to an offense as she does
the woman there will be less of it.
Breckinrldge's defeat was due to the
women of Kentucky, and what they
have accomplished there at the polls,
when they could not vote, they can also
accomplish at the social bar, where they
can. When women take the stand they
have in Kentucky there will be fewer
Breckinridges, and surely it is high time
that they refuse longer to submit to the
one-sided judgment of society that dis
tinguishes between the offenses against
the moral code on account of sex. The
women of Kentucky have made move
in the right direction, and they should
cultivate the habit.

Bill Nye certainly had hand in writ
ing up the murder and suicide at Port
land yesterday, for whose but his versa
tile brain would have thought of insert
ing such paragraph as this into such
an article? "She was dressed in black
brocaded silk of the very latest fashion,
and a dainty straw hat. Although
modest and unassuming the dress indi-
Gated her a woman of good position and
refinement Now when you have alb
sorbed that peruse the further disserta-
ton of the thanatopsical writer: Her
father supplied her with sufficient means
to satisfy every whim, and although she
had an extensive wardrobe of the latest
style garments, they were all of subdued
and modest shades" If that wouldn't It

what would? We would like to see that
reporter throw himself on a wedding.
