HONEST LITTLE HENRY.
He Gives Way to thle Ram'lin' Habit
 Again

Honest Little Henry has broken out again after so long an absence from any of the criminal courts that mos. people thought he was dead. Honest little Henry is a colored person who camle into prominence four years ago by stealing a lot of buff cochin chick ems. He god sixty days for that His next appearance was for rob- ping a COW. He was caught in the act and the owner of the COW was doubly gratifed because he had caught a thGef and because his suspicion thai the cow was drying up was found to be grOundless. This offense was less enormous than chicken stealing and Henry got off with thirty days
 After tihis Henry passed into an eclipse from which he was found emerging yesterday morning. Officer lMolloy found him about o'clock go- ing down an alley carrying a bundle of shingles and dry goods box When the officer stopped him Henry asked what was the ground of arr;st For engaging in the nocturnal habit, J said the officer. That was a new one on Henry. It might be much more serious than chicken stealing or milk ing in the night time. He said after it was explained to him that this was the first time he had been out after sundown for a month He went to lthe show the night before and on hifs way home got into crap game which detained him. The officer searched him and found a dime. He knew Henry was lying, for he would never have quit a crap game with "a sho i bit in his pocket.
 Henry was in police court yesterday afternoon. He began mafing his plea before he was arraigned. Said he Hedge, I hainit been in no trubble foh a long time. Wen I got out'en dat chicken business I did'n' never git mixed up with any mo- buff cochins

AMONG THE SPORTSMEN.

MT. Ross, prominent sportsman from Flagstaff, is here for the winter. He is am all round sportsman and at once identified himself with the cub MT Ross says the club in Flagstaff is not in a very fourishiug condition. having done little or no shooting since the tournament in July. I hope the boys will soon get push on them selves and send team to the terri torial association tournament.
 Mir. K. l.. Hart of Tucson made a flying visit ito Phoenix the other day on his way north. He expects to re- turn in about week, and promises to be with US at our regular prac ice. MT. Hart says it is the intention of several of the Tucson boys to attend the Phoenix tournament that is to be held the 29th and Both of lEhis month. From the way they have been mowinig down the live birds at Tucson lately it beihooves the Phoenix boys to pre- serve their eagle eye for the occasion
 The following programme is to be carried out alt tihe two days tourna- ment given by the Phoenix Gun club

 American association rules to gov ern. High guns, shooters at twenty eight and thirty yards, according to record; nobody barred; black powder and 10-gauge guns barred shooting to commence at 1:30 p. m. Owing to the uncertainty of birds the club reserves the right to change amy of the above events to suit the number of birds on hand on that day. On the Both, bluerocks. First event, 10 bluerocks, $2 el- trance, 8 monies.

 There has been number of mer- chandise prizes donated to the club. These will be hung up as prizes in the different events. At this tournament the Phoenix club proposes first, to give a flrst-class tournament; second, ito see that all visiting shooters thoroughly enjoy themselves. Several sportsmen in Jerome and Tucson have signified their intention of attending and it is hoped we will have big line of shooters on both days It is to be regretted that no added money can be put up. However, if any one can shoot we'll enough he will more uham play even.

CHASED BY INDIANS.
Five Redskins Chase Three Cowboy
 in Graham County.

The Graham Bulletin prints the fol- lowing relative to Indian troubles in Graham county:
 Deputy Sheriff Ben Clark, who was here last Tuesday, brought the report from Sheldon that on Monday a band of five Indians had run three cowboys into the ranch at that place, which is owned and operated by Jim Parks.
 It seems that on Monday a cowboy from the c. A. Bar ranch at Coronado and two mem from MT. Parks ranch were in the vicinity of the San Jose tanks, about fourteen miles east of SOlomonviDle, when about o'clock in the afternoon they sighted band of five Indians coming over a hill about a quarter of mile distant They inn mediately turned their horses toward the home ranch, about twelve miles distant. The Indians pursued and then began a race for life across the mesa. The cowboys horses were the best and quickly put safe distance between themselves and the Indians The cowboys reached the ranch af- ter dark and reported the matter to MT. Parks, who informed Deputy Sher- if Clark, who came down on the train from Clifton the next morning.
 Tuesday afternoon a horse which had been takenl to Whitlock Cienega by Dohnny Parks, returned to the ranch just above town without amy rider, and feeling somewhat uneasy, posse composed of Mr Chesser, Will Parks and Harry McCurdy, left town Wednesday morning for Whitlock to ascertain if everything was all right at that place. Up to the time of go- ing to press they had not yet retu. ned No uneaSDness is felt here as to Mir. John Parks, as the horse, if turned loose, would naturally return to the home ranch at this place.

Motter and Hatfner Both Claim
the Regular Organization.

1t is evident that Mr. Motter has no
idea of giving any quarter for the man
agement of affairs in this county. The
Chairman of the Central Committee
identified with his wing of the party
has called for meeting of their COM
mittee to be held on July 18th, at l
o'clock. This call is signed by Elmer
j. Smith as chairman, and Horace
Staley as secretary. Mr.. Hammond
Urner as chairman of what is called
the regular committee, issued his call
last week for meeting on July 18th,
at II o'clock. Lately Mr.. Motter has
been getting in some fine work through
Mr. Mcdonald, the Congressman from
this district who is said to be with
Motter as against the Wellington COM
bination. Mcdonald has been allow
ing MOtter to name the fourth class
postmasters for this county over Urner,
the chairman, and Hafiner, the leader
ago it was thought that Haffner would
be well cared for by the Junior Senator,
but after several visits to Baltimore
the Doctor was sent home with instruc-
tions to make fight for the clerkship,
as there were too many applicants for
the big plums in Baltimore; so DIR.
Haffner becomes the Wellington can
didate for Clerk of the Court Mr..
Motter in the meantime. has been put
in the race for Associate Judge. If the
Motter combination is strong enough
they will nominate an entire ticket
from clerk down. This, of course, will
throw HafIner back upon Wellington,
which means that Gittinger and sew
eral other good workers will have to be
cared for by the Senator. Mcdonald
will do nothing for the Urner combina-
ton. The latest talk is that Motter's
action may cause Hon. Milton G.
Urner to step into the ring with his
strong following for Judge, who, with
his strength in the county, would make
things very lively for Motter and
would come near making a county
ticket to his liking. Mr.. Wood, of
New Market, was given to under
stand that he would encounter no OPP
position from DR.. Haffner, but later
on was called down and is somewhat
in doubt as to what policy he is to pur-
sue. 1t was claimed that in the last
campaign Wellington had harmonized
the troubles of the two Republican
committees and had divided the spoils
equally among them, not thinking
that there would be a fresh outbreak
this fall. If the Haffner men show
any strength they may secure a COM
promise with Motter for Judge and
/ Haffner for Clerk. In the meantime
the people are waiting for their say
Here is a beautiful spectacle Ring
rule and boss management are not

From the Washington Post.l

We are not greatly interested in the
quarrel which Mr. Wellington, of
MARYLAND, has undertaken to fix upon
Mr.. B. III. Warner The latter, we
fancy, can take care of himself in any
emergency that person of Yelling
tons intellectual equipment is likely to
precipitate. There is word 10 lie said,
however, touching Wellington's atti-
tude and language with reference to
this new spaper, and that word, in all
Difference to our readers, we shall pro-
coed to utter.
country yesterday the weird spectacle
of Senator rising TO a question OF
privilege for the purpose of denying a
newspaper report of his behavior on
the day before and winding up by ad-
hitting the substantial accuracy of
everything the newspaper in question
had alleged. 1t is fact that he inter-
spersed his remarks with such epithetS
as "liar," etc, hut it is equally fact
that before he stopped talking he had
corroborated the Posts account of the
committee proceedings in every I'M
portant and material particular. He
denounced the Posts report as I'M
truthful and malicious, and then Won
dered pathetically how the Posts re-
porter could possibly have obtained
the details. He hurled anathema at
the base wretch who accused him of
criticising the President, and in the
next breath notified the universe that
he was not a slave, and that if the
price of recognition was to be servility
be declined the bargain. Upon the
whole, Wellington made perfectly
lurid ass of himself, and suggested
nothing SO much as criminal negli-
gence on the part of once industrious
fool-killer.
We have only to say that our report
yesterday morning, of the proceedings
of the Senate Committee on Commerce
on Thursday was in all essential re-
spects model of accuracy. The cir-
cumstance that Wellington cannot To-
cate the source of our information is
not momentous, ana the fact that he
denounces our publication so bittetly,
suggests only that he is unable to re-
flute it. But the incident has its value.
1t has enabled a great many we'll
meaning persons, who might other
wise have been in doubt, to satisfy
themselves that Wellington is a
mournful blatherskite, and it may
we hope it will-restrain the people of
Maryland from ransacking the back
woods hereafter when they want to
find Senator.

HAS MUCH TO LEARN.
From the PHILADELPHIA Times.

Mr.. Wellington. of Maryland, is
new Senator, but he resents any poach-
ing on his patronage reserves like
hoary-headed veteran. He is mad at
the President for making consular
appointment from the State of Mary
land without his sanction; he is mad
der still at some unnamed Creature"
for reporting his peppery remarks upon
the appointment before a committee of
the Senate, and maddest of all at the
newspapers for publishing what he
said. 1t didn't look well in print, even
to Wellington, and he is now crawfish-
ing by denying his own remarks.
Before the Maryland Senator be-
comes veteran in patronage peddling,
he is liable to learn good many hu-
initiating lessons about the ingratitude
of presidents, and it will be wise for
him to cool off and begin to harden
himself as preparation for other dis
appointments. If he starts out by i'm
agining that President Mckinley isn't
allowing Senators sufficient control of
patronage, he will meet some real dis
appointments during the administra-
ton of some future president that will
take his breath away.

Republican Sugar Bounty.

The browning accomplishment and
power of the sugar trust in Washing
ington was shown by dispatches re-
Gently, whereby it secured the valuable
bounty on its combined product of !
of a cent per pound. This applies to
beet sugar. Not satisfied with high
protective duty on sugar, etc, the wise
solons of the Republican party desiring
to show their appreciation of election
favors received from the trusts, this
one especially, propose to reward them
by giving prize or premium of per
cent. from all monies in the treasury,
not otherwise appropriated, on each
and every pound of beet sugar the re-
tiners of the sugar trust turn out from
July 1st, 1898, until July LIST, 1908, a
period of five years. How is this for
wise discrimination and protection of
'infant industries" The poor sugar
trust with capitalization of hundreds
of millions of dollars and making a net
profit of several millions year, is in
such financial straits as to need the as
sistance of the peoples money, taken
from them direct by taxation for the
support of the government, not to
speak of the profits made by the trusts
from their dealings in sugar in trade
How do those who denounced the
Democratic Congress for their alleged
sugar trusts when the last tariff was
in course of its passage, feel, now that
the party it helped to power has shown
the cloven hoof and a hundred times
more innate subserviency to the con-
trolling power of trusts and combina-
tions in this one instance than the
Democrats individually or collectively
ever did? Surely there must be some
excuse for this action. 1t is possible
that this Infamous clause may not be
enacted into law. The Democratic
Senators and Congressman are up in
arms against it. But the fact remains
that an effort was made at the last
minute to foist this bounty racket upon
the country and it should receive vol
ley of harsh and continuous condem-
nation. The Philadelphia Ledger
says:
The proposition to pay bounty on
beet sugar is too narrow, Why should
there not also be bounty in the Sem
ate Tariff bill on maple sugar and
sorghum molasses? senator Jones, of
Nevada, one of the advocates of the
beet sugar amendment, thinks that the
proposed heavy protective duty on beet
sugar would not be enough, and he
wishes to exc it out with bounty.
Thus the sugar trust would be aided
in two ways-the high duty would
keep out foreign refined sugar, and the
bounty extorted from the pockets of
the people would slightly compensate
the producers of beet sugar for the
price which they would be compelled
to accept from the trust, which would
be the only purchaser of their product
in the market, which Jones in part
represents, would take the bounty off
beet sugar in purchasing it from the
producers, and would add the bounty
when selling the refined sugars to
the American consumers, who would
thus be compelled to pay it twice
once out of their treasury, and once out
of their pockets. 1t is poor tariff bill
that does not work two ways.
