 house from Cochisa county during the
 sessions of the SeventoeEth and
 Eighteenth legislatures. It was in | the latter session that he was a par lticiran- in the hotly contested, but eX- Iceedingly friendly election for speaker of the house, Carpenter winning the goal by one vote. He was united in marriage to the highly accomplished
 Miss Lulu Matis in 1894 and is the
 father of 3-year-Cld boy. MT.
 Wright was the unanimous choice Of
 the republican party for the position

THE DEMOCRATS CAUCUS
Henry F. HShurSf Named for Speaker
 of inc House.

The legislature will meet today at noon and in all probability will effect organization in both branches. The thirteen democratic members of the assembly held a caucus yesterday even ing in the assembly I4all, and nOmi- mated a set of officers and clerks, headed by Henry F. Ashurst of Coco nino county, for speaker. Persever- ance in this case has had it's merited reward, for MT. Ashurst started after the spe2kership on the first day of January, 1898. The balance of the slate nominated at the caucus fol- lows: Chief clerk, w. D. Berry of Prescott; assistant chief clerk, J. Hooks of Graham county; journal clerk, John Quinn of Graham county; enrolling and expressing clerk, Mar shall of Pinal county; assistant en- rolling and expressing clerk, Miss Mamie Meaghr of Phoenix; first com mittee clerk, Miss Leotia St0ney or Navajo county; second clerk, J. D. Moore of Prescott; third clerk Miss Jessie Smith of Prescott; fourth clerk, Cavaire of COchise county. The bal ance Of the officers were not selected, but it is probable that linus of Mo have will be nominated for sergeant at-arms; Hunt of Gila for watchman; Hegrepith of MaricCpa for chaplain,
 
 The council will probably organize with Goldwater of Prescott, president.
 When organization is effected Gov ecnor Murphy will deliver his message to the legislature, touching laws need full to the territory.
 Nine of the eleven republican mem bers of the assembly met yesterday af- 'ternoon at MT. Bcechams office and informally discussed prospective legis- lative business, as well as the nomi- nation of a candidate for speaker No nomination was made and the meeting was adjourned until this morning. The democratic members Of the council caucused and selected Morris Gold water for president The republicans in the council will give MT. Carpenter their vote for the presidency.

The Storm.

This part of The country has
been the recipient of a large
amount of snow and rainfall this
week. 1t began Monday morning
and has rained and showed stead
lily up to this time.
The amount of snowfall in the
mountains has been considerable
and over two feet ofsnow is report-
ed at Battle now The weather
has been very dry for some time
past and a good lot of moisture
was needed, though it comes too
late to be much benefit to the range

when this storm clears away that
we will have a long spell of nice

Frozen to Death last November.

The body of a was
found north of Laramie last week,
by a sheepherder. and for a time
it was thought a murder had been
committed, and their was great ex-
citement. Later developments
proved the body to be that of Ida
Gould, a partially demented wo-
man of 30, who, while on her way
to San Francisco, had stopped
in Laramie and been sent to the
hospital. She wandered away last
November and nothing was
heard from her until the discov-
cry above mentioned, which goes
to show that she must have been
overtaken and persisted in n of
the storms that swept over the

There is but one construction TO be
placed on that statement and that is
that il was intended TO imply that this
paper was allowing its olumns to be
used by a Democrat to iuiure Senator
Warren. Such an implication is not
only unjust but unworthy of any public
man, much less a man of the great abil-
ity and public worth of Senator Warren.
Every person in this valley will bear
testimony to the fact that TuE Sun has
for years, both in season and out of sea-
son, advocated government supervision
of our forests, and has repeatedly pro
tested against the anpual destruction of
our immense timber reserves by fire.
The one great aim of this paper has
been to oppose the defamation of our
forests, whether by fire or other means
that would tend to lessen their use as
an immense reservoir for SHOWS and
rainfalls, the storing up of the water
from which is the only salvation for our
great and growing irrigation interests.
To this end we have ALWAYS been tenn.
perate in statements and have admitted
nothing to our columns that was not
free from unjust personal criticism. In

To Discontinue for the Winter.

Messrs. Rendle Bros. announce
that the Rawlins-E ncampment
stage line will be discontinued for
the winter on the 18th, inst.
Since the line was put on it has
done a very large business. The
reasons for its discontinuance now
are two-fold. 1t is an impossible
ity to get horses enough to keep
the line up to its present high
standard and still meet the heavy
demand for teams for other pur-
poses, and it is believed that trav-
ell to the southern camps will be
much lighter from the 18th on
