 The Jerome Reporter now ap- pears daily. The anti-Burns stuff which the copper company is using could not be crowded into the lim- ited space affor!ed by two weekly papers.
 The copper company evidently has quite large corps of letter writers in its employ at present, from the number which are appear ing. Two daily papers have been started in Jerome in order to get hem published.
 Rudolph Steppen, aged 8 years, died on Saturday and Was buried yesterday afternoon. He was a bridge carpenter and had been employed on the Big Bug railroad. He leaves a wife ana four children.
 The Jerome Reporter has evident ly lost its political chart, as 1t speaks about "the JOURNAL MINER giving the tax assess ment of John l.. Munds." The JoURNAL-MINEs has not said anything about MT. Munds' tax assessment. The Reporter is evidently barking up the wrong tree.
 The question being asked these days Is, Has the United Verde Company ignored the old demo castic standby, newspaper, in Pres colt, or has 1t refused to publish the political rubbish they are us- ingi"
 Mrs. E. Mcdonald and her sister, Miss Lenora Weldon, will leave to- morrow for Colorado to remain. The former will join her husband at Ward, and the latter ret"rns to her home at Denver. Both ladies have made many warm friends dur ing theiAresidence here, who regret their departure.
 If John Burns is as bad a man as the copper company is now trying to paint him through the use of their letter writers, why was 1t that he was retained in its employ for three or four yearsi This fact alone IS evidence of the personal spite work ID the opposition which is now being made to him.
 An error was made in Saturdays issue of the JoURNAL-MINER in regard to the departure of Mrs. R. s. Stockton, on her visit east. She went to Harvey, Illinois, having been called there by the illness of her mother, her departure being un- expected until the day previous to her leaving.
 There seems to be little friction between democratic headquarters in Jerome and the Prescott branch office. Democrats in Prescott do not approve of the letter writing campaign, which shows personal spite purely, and they realize that it is making votes every day for Burns. Quite a number of demo crats here have denounced this species of campaign, and say they will vote on the quiet for Burns. Volume 1. number 2, of the Globe Times. published by R. c. Brown and G. 4. Mintz has been received at this office. The Times is all right politically, all right typograph- ically, and it is all right from news standpoint. Its editorial columns are filled with red hot republican shot, its news columns are full of crisp items and its typographical appearance is perfect.
 "JoURNAL-MINER logic is about as | follows: Because the copper con- pany pays over Sl4,OOO a year taxes, ! it IS criminal for it to have and po- litical preferences at all."-Courier. The JOURNAL MINER has always con- ceded the copper company the right to have political preferences. But that is no reason why the voters of this county should endorse their political preferences. They are making desperate efforts to elect the candidates of their choice, not in the interests of the people or the taxpayers, but for their own selfish ends.
