PERJURERS NUMEROUS.

All men are liars,'' King Solomon remarked, in passi' g, about tw nty- five hundred years ago.
 President E. G. Whitaker of the New York State Bar associa ion s not quite so sweeping in his remarks as was King Solomon. He goas on7y so far as 10 say tha. five out of ten itigants are perjurers.
 When the State Bar associa ion was in session in Albany, Presi1 lent Whitaker made a long address on the increase of perjury. These are some of the things he said:
 ''It is the observation Of judges and practising lawyers that the crime of perjury is committed in some form or other in at least five out of every ten litigated cases"
 Ut has come to such a pass that men standing high in the community apparently think nothing of swearing falsely to pleadings in order to delay and defeat justice. In addition to swearing falsely to affidavits, many men have no regard at all for the sanciity of an oath in a ecu of jus tice. To such men the actual defeat of justice is viewed win compla- cency."
 If the lawyers of this state wcu d positively discourage false swearing on the part of their own clients, and honestly endeavor to have il punish ed when committed by the eMen of their adverse r1es, the crime would grow suddenly less. It is the profes- sional duty of every lawyer to do this. He iowes it to himself, he owes 1t to his fellow men, he owes it to his country, and he owes 1t to his God"

THE FELINE Is OUT,

More or less mys.ery has enshroui- cd the motives of certain Ar;zUa Pa : riots in their undying love for home rule Of course the truth was sus- pected from the first by those who are familiar with political chicanery. Lately, however, instancas have transpired that are gradually dissi- paJing the uncertainty. The time has probably arrived when a Ii tie light thrown on this darkness will con- vince the most doubting 1ayman that the intelligence of the voters Of this territory is being trifed with. The home rule scheme is the taffy that the triflers are using. It is 0 bait to gu. the triflers into office. Once in, it will take a different kind of taffy to get them out. It is a scientific fact that democrat seldom dies and never resigns. This fact also applies to a populist, who now differs from an Ari- zona democrat as tweedle dee does from tweedle dunn. There is a re- deeming feature about popuist that gives him an advantage over a demo- crat It is that he seldom gets into office. In fact he does not acknowl- edge himself a populist until some other party has turned him down. An extract from ''Buckey's own bio graphy," serial now running in such papers as the Courier, Silver Belt, Guardian and Gem, is sufficient proof of this statement.
 When Mckinley was elected such patriots as Buckley, ''P. H. Wilson, Wiley Jones. T. Parish. H. D. Ross and Mark Smith scented danger to their political development. The free silver excitement had proved a fail ure. Smith. Jones and Ross had r.d- den into short-lived jobs on it but many others just as worthy had fallen by the wayside. This would never do besides Mckinley and prosperity would soon leave these heroes with out any argument. Free silver could not be worked again, so a new brand of taffy must be ma nufac ured. Home rule" was selected as being the most pleasant to take and it was sprung shortly before congress convened Home rule was far ahe3d of free sill yer in that it contained alm s5 end less possibilities for office holders.

 were only told that nonresident offic- ialA would tax them to the verge oi
 bankruptcy; that steals without end
 would be perpetrated and that the wells would run dry. Home rule would prevent all this and these self sacrificing patriots would help all they could in the preventing. Well, a few were misled but the majority of the voters of the territory "smelled a mice" They suspected the mystery without endeavoring to find out just what it was, and have hung back.
