 Here is story with a moral: The Republican yesterday received a letter from gentleman residing at Fort Huachuca inquiring if there is such thing in Phoenix as a wagon store. He wants to buy farm wagon. He says he has been looking over the ad- vertising columns of The Republican, but has been unable to ascertain from them if it would be possible to buy wagon in this town. It would no doubt be to the advantage of Phoenix dealers in wagons, and there are sev eral of them. to put themselves in communication with the Huachuca gentleman who has found it necessary to advertise for dealer in wagons. There is a no more direct way to get into communication with him than through The Republican.
 A man who arrived from Tucson yesterday morning related an exciting episode which he took part in a couple of days before. He and two other men, one of them a county official, were concluding a dinner with which they had consumed a great deal of sour wine. The county official finally or dered black coffee and rum. It was brought him, along with cup Of sugar. He saturated the sugar with rum or brandy and then set it on fire. In order to promote the conf1agratioD he poured more rum on the burning mass. An explosion followed The county officials whiskers were burned off and all three of the men were scared into a condition of sobriety, which they regarded as the most dis astrOus feature of the incident For they just seemed to be successfully constructing a jag at great expense Of time and money.

STREET SPRINKLING.
It May Be Made the Main Issue in the
 Coming Election.

The town is pretty nearly evenly divided on the subject of street sprink- ling, which is likely to be the main issue in the campaign. Those who live in the outskirts and had no other interest in the sprinkiing than to help pay for it naturally do not want to have the sprinkling done at the public expense. Those in the central part of town are equally opposed to the subscription plan, which they say they know by experience to be impracti- cable Every man in block with the exception of one or two will sub scribe The one or more who hold out know they have their neigh bors dead in the door. With the fund lately available it is said by members of the council to be an impossibility to sprinkle the whole town or even considerable part of it. So a contin
 uance of the late arrangement would be unsatisfactory to most taxpayers, as it would certainly be unjust A plan of levying a special tax creating a fund sufficient to pay for sprinkling the whole town has been proposed.

Cooperative nor Kluinr.

The farmers OF Maine have circum-
vented the beef trust. says Iowa State
Register. They have organized 1000
fresh pork and fresh beef clubs In that
state. each club composed OF ten men,
bcrs. Instead of buying their fresh
meats from the trust and paying trib-
ute to Il they provide themselves with
such seasouable delicacies. The ten
farmers belonging TO a club arrange for
a succession OF butcheries. Tha, is. a
hog Is killed every so many days dur
ing the winter season and the fresh
pork Is divided into ten parts. each
family getting one part This does not
include the hams and other portions Of
the animal which are sailed or picked
for future use. The arrangement
amounts TO cooperative meat shop.
The farmers lose nothing and they get
frcsh pork all the time. The Maine
idea may spread 10 other states. Il Is
something OF an outrage that our hogs
should be sent 10 Chicago to be butch
cred and then sent back to be eaten.
II follows az the night does the day
that the consumer must pay for the
freight both ways. or else the hog
grower pays Il, and there Is beside the
expense OF handling the hog and the
meat IN Chicago. Various ways have
been suggested to get rid OF such an
industrial loss and folly. but the Maine
way seems TO be solution as far as the
farmers themselves are concerned.

In the excitement he escaped.
This was the beginning. A peculiar
ity OF the lynch business is that It is
more contagious than the smallpox or
the black plague, and therein lies one
of the dangers of the system.
Lynchings became as common in
that part OF the country almost as we'd
dings. In eight or ten counties they
hanged something like 100 men; horse
whipped probably twice as many. and
drove that many out of the state. In

lynching that 1t came TO pass that a

that within twelve months after the
initial hanging near Perryville, man
could have left his pocketbook in the
big road without any reasonable fears
OF 1t being picked up and carried on
Now, three men can hang a man
just as well as 800. Usually the FIRST
man that is lynched in a community
richly deserves It But, as said be-
fore. IL is contagious, and Il finally
comes to pass that If two or three men
have grudge against another and
lynching is prevalent. they are liable
TO take him out and hang him and
charge IL up 20 the lyncherE.

the CornishviIle fellows shot Lambert
and killed him Not knowing precisely
what to do with him. they concluded
to take him to the woods and swing
him up. thinking that HIS death would
be laid upon the lynchers. This they
proceeded TO do. BY this time. how

the lynch business. and one man OF in

Lambert's corpse was hanging 20 the
