granite, found by him set IN the ground

Indian village on the southern slope OF
the Santa Catalina mountains. The OBJ

village is not yet made clear. The posts
are set to depth OF two or three feet,
reminding one of some OF the Druidicai
monuments OF England, though on a
much smaller scale. The longer of the
two posts measures about three feet six

proof thereof offer the following edi-
torisl from the Star, of today's issue. 1t

less personsges than his excellency,
Governor Hughes, on the one hand and
b. A. Fickae, chairman of the demo-
cratic central committee on the other:
1t appears that there was more than
one repu blicsn job connected with the
lGst democratic territorial convention.
The last one which has been recently
oo0 irmed Is that very prominent re-
publican OF Phoenix was allowed to
name the chairman OF the democratic
executive committee under the pledge
that his faction OF republicans would
fight Murphy. The bargain was closed.
He named B. A. Fickas the chairman,
Ind in less than twenty-four hours after
Fickas was elected as chairman 1T Is
stated he made proposition to Murphy
to throw HernQon, which was not ac
cepted, however. But the object of the
republican in naming Fickss was not 80
much to defeat Murphy as it was to
have an alleged democrat as chairman
of the territorial executive committee
who would be willing tool in bis hands
to attack and misrepresent democratic
officials under the color OF being the
territorial representative of the demo
