CUTTING PINE TIMBER
Contractors Will Be Prosecuted by
 inc District Attorney.

Robert E. Morrison, U. s. district attorney, arrived in the city last night from the north to be present at the opening of the session of the U. s. dis trict court today Mir Morrison is deep ly interested in preserving the great pine forests of the northern portion of the territory from destruction, and he has been carrying on a vigorous fight against contractors who have not complied with the regulations under which the government allows them to cut timber. He says that 12,000 stulls have been held at Prescott which were cut in violation Of the law
 There has been a scandalous de- struction of timber said MT. Nor rison to a Republican reporter last night. v'.The whole country about Prescott has become indignant. We have found that over IS 900 stulls have been cut within a radius of fifteen miles of Prescott since the first of the year, and some 5000 have been shipped out These stuls are cut if teen feet in length and twelve inches in thickness. The gxeatest portion of the tree is contained in the branches and the unavailable thick nesses is left on the ground to dry out and become the source of very destructive forest fires.
 "For many miles about Prescott there is the most prolific growth of young pine trees to be found in the territory" coht:nued MT. Morrison. ''The disintegration of the granite for mation seems to be productive of this growth, and the trees grow to enor- ciz 10 Sof tions of these trees is considered there remains an enormous value in wood left after the stulls are cut. The con- tractors do not seem to have made any attempt to pile up the waste mat ter as the law requires them to do. The regulations of the government are entirely disregarded in this mat ter, and the injury which we seek to avert by those regulations is lost.
 "It has been demonstrated and Is past the stage of mere theory, that the destruction of the forests in the mountains which are drained by the Verde River valley tends to decrease the rainfall, hence the water which must be depended upon to irrigate the Salt River valley is greatly lessaned So the destruction of timber is mat ter of direct importance to the ranch CTS of this valley, and they have reason to join with the Prescott peo- pie in the indignation which demands immediate action on the part of the government officials.
 ''Mr. S. J. Holsinger, special agent of the interior department, deserves great credit for the industry and intel Egence he has shown in prosecuting the investigations which have result ed in the arrest of a number of the parties who have violated the law. During the eighteen years I have lived

Why?

Johnnie-Papa, why is it that Me Kiee's Cash Store is always busy?
 Papa-Because it is no longer a doubt that the Cash Store is under selling them all.
 Johnrie-Why can't these big stores sell just as cheap as lMcKoe's Cash Store?
 Papa-There are a good many req sons why:
 First The lbig stores are selling on credit and must add the loss of bad accounts to the price of goods which makes them higher
 Second. They are at such an enor mous expense, big rents, boOkkeepers. solicitors and collectors. All takes money and must be charged in the price of goods.
 Third. McKee's Cash Store dis counts all bills for cash; buys goods as cheap and don't credit any man, woman or child; has a very small ex~ pense account and is in position, too. and does undersell them all
 No old goods to work off on the public. Everything cool new and fresh and clean at the store that's al ways busy and has electric fans for everybody. Every one of our custom CTS are getting presents absolutely free.

A STRANGER IN TROUBLE
He Was an Easy Victim of a prac-
 tiCaI Joke.

Riot prevailed in Sam Seip's cigar store yesterday. A stranger who said he was from Prescott had spent some time tn the store indulging in remarks of h:s own general abilities He was presented with a cigar by the pro prietor as a token of regard. It was called a cigar, but in fact the wrapper was the only part ordinarily entering into the composition of a cigar The filler was paper. Soon after lighting it the man discovered the stupendous joke. The reason he knew it was pa per was because he is a cigar maker himself, and they couldn't fool him.
 The proprietor explained that it was mistake and he sought to con ciliate his feelings. He gave him an other cigar heavily charged with powder. The result was easily pres aged. The man lit it and an ex> plosion occurred. He gave vent to his feelings by denouncing everybody contiguous to the store and everybody who intended to become a part Of it. Special United States Stripper John Swilling took offense, and although a smaller man, fioored the irate stranger. The latter left the estab- lishment, but returned shortly He started into the store at fair rate of speed, but hts progress was checked by Billy W:dmer He forced the stranger against the show case and as he did so the glass was broken. The man had gone for a pistol which he put in his hip pocket. The butt end which he had intended for some other purpose broke the glass.
 You'll have to pay for that glass, said Sam Seip, who was angered for the first time 'I'll do it." said the man, "but I have to go down. the street for the money I don't care for the glass, but I'll break that lobster's neck" No one knows the' Prescott stranger and he hasn't been seen since.

FACILITATING EVIDENCE
Taird Man Suspected Of implication
 ia PaeheCO Murder.

The cOTOneT's jury concluded It's ln-
 quest over the body of Lebrado Pa
 checo in Tempe yesterday and re-
 turned a verdict that death was caused by gunshots, the parties firing them unknown. There is now a third party suspected of being connected Vi,h the crime and the south side officers were seeking him yesterday.
 The evidence given before the cor oner's jury yesteI day developed de- tails substantially the same as pub lished in The Republican yesterday morning. There were other c!rcum- stances brought out, however, which strengthen the chain of circumstances duplicating Manuel Arbiso, the first suspect placed under arrest
 After the murder was committed 9 Mexican crossed the river and started toward Phoenix. H. Ballard, who is camped near the river, was bathing near the crossing when the Mexican supposed to be ATbiso went by. lie heard the shots and for that reason noticed the Mexican closely. He had dressed when the man returned and went up to the scene of the murder where Deputy Constable o. c. Smith and Constable William Fellows were examining the body. Ballard walked up to him and asked if he was the man who had previously crossed the river. At the inquest yesterday Bal lard identified Lfm as the man.
 There is another damaging circum- stance. The tracks of the horse. sup posedly Arbiso's horse, were traced and it was obvious that shoes de- signed for a horses fore feet had been used in shoeing all four feet of the an- imal. The tracks of Arbiso's am mai and it is shed with four similar shoes
 The other man under arrest for this crime is Francisco 'Murietta. The cir cunstances involving him in the murder have not been disclosed. It is however, that the proof, though circumstantial. is strong and indicates that the killing was premed itated Murietta has not been ar The hearing of AIbso, set for yesterday, was continued until tomorrow

AN@ NAN1N%N&N|A %W N , WHAT PEOPLE SAY :


A. R. Franklin: It looks as though we wouldn't have rain now for some ttme The clouds which gathered on Wednesday night resulted n a light rain early yesterday morning. On ac- count of it we suffered from the hu- rnidity yesterday afternoon, and the settling Of the dust was no adequate recompense. Rain threatened us last evening and just about the time the farmers were getting happy every agn of a rain or cloud dLsap pea-ed.
 Walter Hill: The farmers have reason to congratulate themselves on the advance made by this valley in it's fruit products this year. Active agents have shipped fruit to points far beyond those reached at any previous season, and the industry has been profitable. I was disappointed that the fruit growers did not organize, but it fol- lows out the opinion that it is impos- sible to get them together. There IS really no need for such an association in the valley now. but 1t would be good thing for them to organize and benefits would result soon. The grow CTS of citrus fruit will organize. 1 be- lieve There are not so many of them here as there are of deciduouS fruit growers and they sesm better inclined toward organizing.

a visit to friends, was the cause of the
 downfall of the Haney family
 E. V. Haney went into the camp of Chloride last week and circulated number of bright one dollar pieces which attracted attention because of their newness. Pieces of this money got into the hands of suspicious min CTS who take delight in examining the product of the hints and criticis-rg the weight and fin aness of silver dol lars When the Hannys sent their ccin to Chloride for redemption in bacon and beans ths prospectors about the stores thought Uncle Sam was springing a new issue on them and they lost no time in placing the new money under the magnifying glasses which they use in examining mineral rock. The verdict was pronounced then and there which has since been confirmed by the court.
 Armed with siX-shoocers, officers Of the camp went to the place where the Haneys camped and as they ap preached Pat Haney, one of the coun- terfeiters, was seen throwing some thing into the mesquite brush, and fire which was blazing was banked with dirt and ashes. An investigation revealed a mould in the fire which c00ta-ncd bran new UOlflr, anu off in the brush was found a chunk Of babbit. The party consisted of Pat Haney, E. V. 1Ianey and a son of the latter, who is but eight years old. On the way to Chloride the little fellow gave the snap away. My papa and Uncle Pat can make pretty money.' he confded to one of the officers, and it don't take them long to make 1t, either''
 At Chloride Pat Haney pleaded guilty and l. '. Haney and his little son entered plsas of not guilty U. s. District Attorney Morrison con- ducted the examination and Pat Haney was sentenced to pay a fine of $500 and serve two years at Yuma The money made by the counterfeit CTS consisted of one dollar pieces and half dollars. The deception was con sidered a credit to ;Ec art inasmucb as the parties are nOvices in the game of cheating Uncle Sam. MT Morrison says this is the first case of counter feiting he has seen in Arizona.

n Arizona I do not know of a special agent who has done Its work so con scientiously and with such excellent effect as MT. Holsinger. He is en- titled to the highest regard of the peo- pie of Arizona for his good work. and I trust he will be retained to labor hare for many years to come. MT. Hols: :nger explained the regulations under which these contractors wore allowed to cut timber, and his in structions were disregiarded Over on Lynx creek where there are 5000 stulls lying in the valleys several for est fires have occurred which were started by the dried-orlt branches of the trees which were cut by the. con tractors Thousands of dollars Of young timber has ibeen burned. To the south of Prescott on the Jersey Lily road is found the same result from the same cause. If the people who cut stulls would comply with the law, and cut into cOrdwOcd all the stul s they allow to go to rot, they would supply the city of Prescott with wood during the entire year, and thus prevent the necessity Of cutting down young pine which has not matured
 Six indictments have been returned against contractors. Demurrers were presented and overruled, and the cases will come up for trial on the 24th day Of July"
 MT. Morrison says that rains fell ill the mountains about Prescott yes terday, and when the train left that city last evening it was still raining there The people of the valley will soon receive the benefit of the copious showers in the increased water supply which will come in a few days.

AN ILL WIND
NefariOuS PraCfiSe Which Has
 SWelIed inc City'S Golfers.

City Officers Dowell, Hale and Rock have routed cut three forces of pros titutes. Following closely upon the arrest of the six Japs in the cid block was the arrest of Bertha Bernard and Frank Boorse, on Fifth street between Madison and Jackson streets, by Officers Bush, Hale and Dowe,I early yesterday morning. Taken before the recorder both plead guilty to a charge of maintaining a house of ill repute They had been living there several nenths, The woman paid a fine of SIS and the man $20.
 Soon after the last arrest the same officers made haul about three blocks south of town, taking in Flossie Bar ton and Robert GOttschalk. The former plead guilty when taken into court and a sentence of $15 imposed. Gottschalk said that a mistake had been made He i3 a scion of ali il- ,ustrious family and said he could furnish the best evidence of his char acter. He asked for time and his hear ing was continued to o'clock this 
 An unwritten rule ir. the recorders court is to impose a sentence on pros titutes, under the above classification, Proportionally lighter than upon their accompliaes of shame. The customary fine of $15 and $2O, Recorder Jobs announces, is subject to change. If the number of cases increase the rev. enue is likely to flCod the city treasury. The arrests have resulted in a rise in the city treasury of $155, and there is a likelihood Of another fine being paid today.

Percy Scovflle of the Scoville Plumbing company has got the bicycle light business down pat. He has got a scheme that works. The light on your bicycle does not go out every time you get bump. if you al'a rigged out with an acetylene gas lamp charged with Scovilles carbide. Some carbide wouldn't burn in any kind of a lamp, but Scoville's is not that kind. He puts it up in two pound cans and sells it cheap. The quality is good and the bicyclists who are using it are satisfied. Their lamps when once lighted keep burning and that's good deal of comfort to a skylarking bicycHst. Especially since the police force has become so anxious to nab riders of unlighted wheels. It's just this way. is you use Scoville's cartade you won't get run in.''
