STRIVING FOR FREEDOM
Hon. G. W. Hull of Jerome Reaching
 for Divorce.

George w. Hull of Jerome is having a free himself from the matrimonial yoke into which he put his neck with so much enthusiasm about a year ago. MT. Hull had struck it rich after many years of mining and prospecting about Jerome and making laws for Arizona. An attractive clairvoyant who had been operating at Prescott and other towns in northern Arizona read MT. HulTs future to such an extent that she was satisfied he was going to be a multi-millionaire, and married him. He was pleased with her as she was, and she was pleased with him as he was going to be.
 The wedding was a great social event and the honeymoon trip was d tri- umphal march. bounded on the east by the Atlantic, on the west by the Pa cific, on the south by the gulf and on the north by the great lakes. It couldn t have been any more extensive, unless the United States had been bigger. MT. Hull did not go to the Philippines, Ea- waii Cuba and Porto Rico because he is opposed to expansion on prin- ciple and did not want to recognize the United States right in those islands by including them in his wedding tour.
 After the return of MT. and Mrs. Hull to Jerome public interest in their mar ried life was obscured by the fires which were constantly burning up the camp, and they eventually dropped out of the public eye. Even the movements of MT. Hull as multi-millionaire were not carefully noted outside of Jerome, and many were not aware that he had been in the east for a considerable time. There was received at the office of The Republican yesterday, presumably from a good friend of MT. Hull, large stock of Providence, Boston and other

holders. He never had such a busy day, though he has had days that yielded him more money He is satis- fled, but he will continue the experi- ment a little while longer to satisfy the public and not let the impression get abroad that his feet are cold.
 CUTTING THE COTTONWOODS.- It is to be noted with regret that many of the large cottonwood trees in the outskirts of the city and throughout the valley are being chopped down and converted into cordwood without any provision having been made for substi- tute trees. No doubt the increasing scarcity of mesquite wood as fuel leads in a measure to this species of van dalism. One of the beauties of the valley is its splendid growth of shade trees, principally cottonwood, and certainly nothing is more refreshing than to strike a row of these on a hot summer day while travelling along the country roads. It is also evident that wholesale destruction of the shade trees is a hardship to horses and cattle feeding in pasture. Cattlemen are unanimous in saying that shade trees are essential to the comfort of do- nestle animals and that abundant shade in hot weather contributes ma terially to the fattening of live stock. It is urged against cottonwood trees that the flying cotton during certain months is a nuisance. This is prob ably true, but the fault, if any is to be found, lies in the choice of the species of cottonwood. inasmuch as the male tree sheds no cotton whatever and is as easily propagated as the other sex. The wholesale cutting down of the cotton woods should be combatted by public sentiment. If people desire to rid the community of flying cottonwood seed by eXterminating the trees, they should plant other varieties for shade and only reduce the lofty head of the offender when the substitute is able to carry on the work for which nature intended it.

FOLKS READ ADS. Frederick S. Murdock, who has risen to fame on Mothers Bread" is convinced that the advertisements of The Republican are read. Mention was made the other day of an experiment he made to ascertain if his advertisement in this paper was receiving proper attention at the hand, or rather the eye, of the general read CT. He caused a coupon to be inserted containing the statement that if it were presented at his place of business it would be received in payment of a loaf of bread. At the same time he promised to keep the experiment up Q. reasonable length of time. Yesterday afternoon he was compelled to neglect his regular trade to attend to a steady procession of several hundred coupon

Sparks From the ENGINE

The Santa Fee Pacific railroad en-
gineers have been doing some sur
veying lately for q new roundhouse q,

workmen clearing away the remains
of one of the coke cars found bones
supposed to have been those of a
human being, in small pieces and they
crumbled to the touch.

were $40. 1877 ATT, against 90, 1872, 139 for

increase of 81, 305, 1913. Forty-seven

creases. Since Jan. the roads referred

To Be An Issue.

The first open declaration from an
official source on the double-header
question in politics comes from Hon.
Dudley @. WOoten, representative
from Dallas in the legislature. who
states that he will use his influence
with governor Sayers 10 include in the
subjects for which the legislature Ia to
be called in extra session on January
%. that of double-headers on Texas
railroads.
In long and carefully prepared
communication to the governor, Mr..
WoOten urges the necessity of legisla-
Jion against the double-h eaders.
SAT the same time" said local
trainman 81 can't see how the rail-
roads can be interfered with in the
slightest degree on the double-h eader
question by legislative enactment. It
is simply a question of running their
business rs they choose, within bounds
of reason. Through the legislature is
not the way to attach double-head-
