A WIDOWS LOYALTY

/ had found lodging for the night at
the Widow Hopes cabin, and after sup
per was over and the smaller children
put to bed, she lighted her pipe and sat
down for talk. After awhile asked
how long her husband had been dead;
she got up, took the candle in her hand.
and looked at some pencil marks on the
back door. After studying for min
ute, she came back to her chair and re-
piled:
"Jim's bin dead bout var and .
half. sah."
"Die of your mountain fever?"
"I.awd, no! Jim was no man to die
Of a fever"
"Then he met with an accident?"
NO, sab, didn't meet with no acci-
dent"
Etiquette forbade my pursuing the
subject farther, but after drawing few
vigorous whiffs she removed her pipe
and said:
what Jim died of, sab, was hangin.
"You don't mean that your husband
was hung on gallows, do you? !
asked.
Fur shore, sab. Yes, sab, Jim was
hung accordin' to law, and thousand
people was thar to see. Everything
perfectly reg'lar, sab. l was sorter
thinkin' I'd like to talk with yo' about
it. It was dawg-gone shame the way
they used Jim, and shall never feel
right about it,
.He-killed somebody. of course? ]
ventured to observe.
"Of co'se. 1t was all In the papers,
but mebbe you didn't see 'em way up
moth. Yes, Jim he killed Hiram Law
son, and he never went fur to deny it.
Jest kept sayin' all the time that he
killed him. He had to kill him. sab
he had to do it."
ibid they have quarrel?"
NO, sab, didn't hev no quarrel. Jim
was no hand to fuss with anybody.
That onery Hiram Lawson finds one Of
our hawgs roamin' about and pens
him up. John Tarbell sees him do it,
and he comes and tells Jim. Jim takes
his gun and goes over and sez:
".Hiram, want my hawg.
"'That's him in the pen.'
"'That's . hawg toted up from
Bristol
"As I said," continued the widow as
she turned to me, Jim was no hand
fur fussin'. He knowed that was our
hawg, and he knowed Hiram wouldn't
gin him up without lot of wranglin'.
So he pops Hiram over and drives the
hawg home, and that bacon yo' had fur
ener was a part of the critter."
And he killed him for q hog?"
exclaimed.
skilled him fur hawg? Why, Of
co'se he did-of co'se he did! What
else would he kill him fur? Wasn't
goin' to let drafted good-for-nuthin'
like Hiram Lawson pen up and keep
one of our hawgs, was hep"
"But it was only hog" foolishly
protested.
"Only hawg!" she repeated. as she
rose up in her excitement. Stranger.
mebbe you don't know the value OF a
big black hawg down in this kentry.
And mebbe If yo'd bin yere yo'd a
sworn agin Jim, same as others did,
and il yo'd bin on that jury yo'd hev
sent him out to be hung? Looks pow
erful like it to me jest now. and bein'
I'm Jim's widder, and bein' as won't
hear his mem'ry scandalized, I reckon
yo'd better shoulder yo'r pack and
move on further!" QUAD.

When Governor McCord was making his great fight against his enemies here and in the east-a fight in which the Phoenix Herald was the local mouth piece of his foes, the New York World through its Washington correspondent, William Shaw Bowen, made a scandal ous attack upon his character. The Republican at the time described Bow en as a man utterly without principle or standing. Here is what the reput- able and dignified Washington Star says of this Journalistic defamer:
 William Shaw Bowen, sugar trust lobbyist, and fake correspondent of the New York World, still insists that annexation is to be defeated in the sen ate through the aid of prominent re- publican senators in accordance with an understanding entered into that after tile passage Of the revenue bill there should be an adjournment of con- gress without action upon annexation. Well, the prominent republican sena- tors indicated have denied positively that there ever was any such under standing, and the public will prefer to believe them rather than MT. William Shaw Bowen"

The Herald wants to know why The Republican endorsed Morford for councilman in the last city election Because he had been nominated by the republicans of his ward The Ari- zona Republican, being republican to the backbone, swallowed the bitter pill and made fight for Morford which unquestionably elected him. In com mon decency Morford should have given some token of acknowledgment of this service. Instead, with true "sidewfnder' instincts, he made false accusations against the editor of this newspaper. He represented himself alone in the Sacaton matter, and The Republican properly opposed his can |didacy. The public will not ignore the |fac- that he makes no reply to The Republicans charge that less than two months ago he offered to merge the Herald with the Gazette. We fhink, in common fairness, he ought 10 tell his readers whether he would have gone the whole democratic hog

\ WONDERFUL STATEMENT.

The foreign trade statement for May is even more remarkable than that for April: 11 fact, it is more remarkable than that for any other month of this remarkable year. The value of mer- chandise exports exceeded S116. .0O0.- coo and that of merchandise imports was about $53,000,00O. The excess of exports. $57.00O,0O was met by net gold and silver imports of but SIG, ,5eo,- Goo. For the eleven months of the fiscal year that have now passed the total value of our exported .merchan- disc has reached the enormous sum of $1.135 100000 and the excess of ex- ports for that time has been $571, ,000,- 600. or s273, ,000. 900 more than in the irevious year, which was also regarded as; a very favorable cne.
