Little Bob Has Another Inter
 esting Trial

The Vidette says:- Saturday after noon bsforeJ udge Fay ylor, Bob Forester better known ss Little Bsb," appear cd to snsves to the charge of "aidips and sps.tiug" the gang of outlaws who attempted to rob the International Bank on August 9th. Several wit nesess were called by the prosecution, but all failed to identify the prisoner except President Dessart of the Bank who said that the prisoner was one oi the three men who sntered the bank while he wss standing by the counter in the front Of the building. Mir. Des- sart identified the prisoner not by his face, but by his build and walk, which ss we'll as his size, cofresponded exact ly with one of the men who entered tte bank. Judge Taylor did net think the evidence sufficient to hold the prisoner, however and he WAS dischsrg- ed. Mir. Herrera would not swear positively that the prisoner lad eater ed the bank. although he had seen the prisoner in Bisbes.
 Forester claims that on the 9th of August. the day of the attempted rob bery, be was at the HI. O." ranch about fifty miles from Roberts ranch on the San Pedro river. On the Stb he came to the ranch to get pair of boots for Jesse Willisms, whom he thought was in Las Vegas at the time. He claims not to have known any thing whatever about the robbery or the plans leading thereto.

A WRECK.
Fourteen Cars Run off the
 Track Near Benson.

The passenger service on the s. P. has been greatly deranged by a wreck which occurred on Sunday morning on the other side of Benson. The wreck, most comprehensive affair. wac caused by the spreading of the rails on a sharpcurye on steep grade. The engine and fourteen cars were ditched and their contents, con- ais.ing of various kinds of merchandise were spread over the surrounding country. Many of the cars were badly broken, so that it took great deal of time Co remove the debris from the track. On account of the character Of the ground temporary siding could not be built. No one was injured in the wreck. The east bound express was delayed 12 hours and the west bsu aS 10 hours.

CONVENTION DATES.
THE PLATFORM
The Democratic Platform as
 Adopted at Williams.

The following platform and resolu, tions were adopted by the territorial Democratic conventions which assem- bled at Williams, Arizona, Sept. IF 1896:
 The Democrats of Arizona is con. vention assembled declare that taey mos, heartily affirm the declaration oi principles set forth in the platform oi the party at Chicago, and particularly the promise of the restoration O. silver to free coinage ou the same terms as golc, at the present legal ratio; and they endorse the candidates, Bryan and sewali there chosen; and to aid in the success of this great issue ws invite the co operation of all our peo- pie, whatever may have been tbeil former affiliations.
 We declare that MT. Cleveland, in forcing, with Republican aid, the re. peal of the law providing for the pur- chase of silver, and in maintaining the single gold standard, has destroyed business, obstruc;ed trade and hss de. prived labor and capital of the profit, of production, and in spite of bo un tiiul hsrvests and in the midst of plenty has prostrAted the peoplein the psraly. sis of hard tines. and no escape there from is possible except in Democratic success. Cleveland, Carlisle and the rest of the present cabinet are now ar. rayed sgsinst us, using every endeavo, to compass the election of McKinley } and e Republican congress, and the power for evil he is using was given him by Democratic votes. He is au open enemy to the psrty which had elected him president.
 We invite those who, once Demo crate. pet dissatisfied with the late misruls Of the party, have wandered away, DOW to return to the party, with the assurance thatit has been brought back to its ancient place as champion of the rights of the people.
