Francis s Farley, of Ridge Road East.
District Of Columbia, recently wrote to
the Commissioners complaining CT the
service on the Columbia division Of the
Washington Traction and Electric Com
pany's lines, and requesting that the sail
company be required to place cl- -sed cars
on its Chesa peake Beach extension. Mr..
Farley states that one day in the rain
and the following day with the m ercury
at As degrees he was forced to ride into
Fourteenth Street northwest in an open
car.
The letter having been sent to Gen.
George H. Harries, vice president of the
company he replied that they were work
ing as fast as possible en- the closed cars.
and that within a few days at most the
Chesapeake extension would be ser .ei
with the closed cars. He stated
that the conditions OF which Mr.. Farley
complained were due solely to the fact
that the company could not put the closed
cars in condition for use in time for the
sudden egid weather which visited the
city at the time referred TO.
BY vote of the Commissioners Mr. Fair
ly has been informed of the substance
of General Harries' letter.

Judge Sloan has countermanded his former order postponing court till next April, and fixed the date for Nov. 12.,
 This will be welcome news to Climax Jim who has been incarcer- ated in this and Graham County jail for nearly two years.-
 Climax is the we'll known alleged COW rustler and it will be a surprise to mary of his acquaintances to hear that he has entirely abandon ed the use of Climax plug and all other brands of tobacco. He now neither chews, smokes, drinks or uses tea or coffee. A man who has the stamina necessary to quit all these habits while in solitary con- finement will we believe, turn out to be a good citizen after all.
 Owing to the fact that Climax has been in jail so long the case a. against him here ought not to go so hard. For Climax for most of the time has not been an unruly prisoner, and those who have had him in charge will not be sorry to see Climax go free, at the end of his coming trial.

Gov. Murphy has been accused by the Southern farmers and stock men of being a friend to Northern Arizona's sheep interests. And he has been equally censured by Northern Democratic kickers of being favorable to Southern Arizona in the opposition between the North and the South Here is what the Governor himself says on the subject: "I do not stand in with localities in the Territory against each other" What right has anyone either in the North or South to kick at that? Ofcourse each sides selfishness may feel aggrieved ii something special is not done for them. But the Governors position is that of q great mediator standing between Northern and Southern Arizona, endeavoring to follow the the esursethat will bring the great est amount of good to both the North and the South as if to secure our mutual friendship and welfare, to promote justic to all Arizona.
 The Congressional fight is now between Mark Smith and N. o. Murphy. There ought to be no doubt in the minds of Northern Arizona voters, as to, which of these. men it is best for them to vote for. The Democrats admit that Smith Is a monopoly man, and any one who choose to see hard things said about Mr Smith should refer to the Courier files covering date of a few days preyiousto Wilson's with drawa!. The CoiEiernaan now lies in the political bed with Mir. Smith and don't try to Kick Mark out either.
 Gov, Murphy has been ac- eused of mine blacklisting. what he did was to warn Eastern Gap. ital against fake mining schemes, which warming has done a great deal to establish the confidence off Eastern capaitalists in Arizona mining values. Will the solid mine owners object to that?'

The rejoicing was peculiarly con fled to the head quarters both terri torial and county. On tho streets the thinking democrats who could be made to talk, gave expression to grave doubts as to the result, and it was generally conceded that Mark Smith would lose moro votes on account of the withdrawal of Wilson than would have been the case if Wilson had remained in the race. The fear that the reason ing democrats have is that Wilson has now become a martyrto Mark Smiths rapacity and the voters who have no interest in the race will visit punishment on Mark at the polls.-Gazette.

If a Yavapai Bond Scandal. He did what memorial of the Arizona Legislature petitioned him to do. Who can attach blame to him for that?
 In the beginning it is true |, we were not for Murphy. We had allowed ourselves in a moment of temporary indifference 10 be infiu- ence by the wiley talk of political sehemers, whose mission it is to sing only the songs that tell of per- sin1istic predictions when man of opposite belief is mentioned,
 Christ the Redeemer of Adams fall and the Savior of all the suc- ceeding generations of Noah's kin as we'll as his most earnest and use- ful prophets have been cruci6ed. The greatest and best have met the most horrible fate. So it happens that our own Dear America's greatest men, statesmen, and poli- ticans have been subjected to the harshest criticisms and roughest treatment. Washington, who saved us from infant disintegration, was subject 10 cabals, and plots Lin- coln who freed us from the igno- miny of slavery and States rights isms, was so bitterly opposed that he was martyrcd, Clay and Web ster known, beloved, and hon. ored by all, could neither be elected President. Mckinley who, has safe ly steered our Nations Ship of state thru the rough and billowy narrows of silverism, socialism, and populism, out onto the broad plaic- ed sea ofexpansion and progress, is cartooned, and called hard names by the nihilistic-anarchistic element our country. N. o. Murphy, who has saved Arizona's mining credit, by his timely warning and who aid ed Yavapai County in a bond cause to get a much needed railroad, is opposed, howled at and lied about by unprincipled. men who know of no clean clear manner of injuring a man of uprightness and integrity.

MARTIN CORYDON. A YOUNG CRIMI-
NAL, INDICTED ON FOUR COUNTS.
Others Indicted ON Serious Charges
Sick Benefit PoIfcfes-Oth-
err Court Cases.

The grand jury made a partial report
yesterday, returning seven indictments, all
on Jail sentences, but on only five of which
capiases were served. Martin Corydon
was indicted on charges of burglary, en-
tering a house to commit felony. petit lar
ceny and assault and battery with intent
to kill. II is charged that he broke into

was discovered shot Connor.
Simeon Taylor was indicted, charged will

Auditor Hart Did Not Request Actu-
airy Fitch's Resignation.

An afternoon paper yesterday in referring
to the resignation of Mr.. Fitch, the actuary
of the insurance department of the State
auditors office, said that there were rumors
to the effect that Mr.. Fitch's resignation
had been requested by the State auditor.
Auditor Hart said: 'Such an accusation
does Mr.. Fitch the greatest injustice. He
voluntarily resigned in March, and has re-
manned this long at my urgent request, to
complete the examination of annual insur-
ance statements filed for last year. which
are placed in my hands under the law,
previous to March l. The salary of 81, 500
is Inadequate for the expert qualifications
necessary in a competent actuary. Mr..
Fitch was not an applicant for the position,
and was appointed solely on account of his
merit.
IT would only be too glad to retain him.
for he has proven one of the most faithful,
efficient and competent employees in the
service of the State. No complaint has
ever been lodged in this office as to mis-
work. and there can be none, as he has fol-
lowed the instructions given in each de-
partment of the auditors office, to require
compliance with the law. and in all mat
tiers of decision his conclusions have met
with my approval"

IS THE CHARTER VALID?
A PROMINENT ATTORNEY, OF THIS.
CITY SAYS 1T Is NOT.
He Points sout New Complications
from tie Supreme Courts
Barrett Law Decision.

The recent decision Of the Supreme Court
IN the case c2 Thomas B.. Adams against
the city of s~aelbyville. declaring the Bar
rett law constitutional, by implication de-
cIares the chsrter under which the city OF
Indianapolis Is incorporated to be invalid
and the Barrstt law TO become imperative
within the city limits.
TO many this will sean paradoxical, but
the followings opinion. expressed by one of
the most prominent attorneys in the city.
whose opinio carries great weight with
every court sn the State, and has given
much Of his erne to a consideration of the
Barrett law, will make the foregoing state
ment very clear. He says: 'The recent de-
cislons of ting Supreme Court with refer
ence TO the sG-called Barrett law seems not
to be undersi bod. There is a general char
ter for the Incorporation Of cities, which
applies to eli les having less than 1900 pop
uiation at the last United States census.
This decision OF the Supreme Court is
made under that charter which four judges
hold to be valid by reason OF the fact that
Section z of chat act provides for a hear
ing by the Common Council and a revision
of the assessment after the work is done,
so that the assessment on no lot shall ex-
coed the ben:ats thereto. and as the court
declares, reqslring hat the excess h be
paid out of tie general treasury of the city.
CHAPTER REQUIREMENTS.
But in the charter Of Indianapolis there
Is no provisisn for any such revision. On
the contrary the indianapolis charter does
expressly an without qualification require
that the entire cost of the improvement,
exclusive Of ione-half Of the cost Of the
intersections,i shall be assessed on the
abutting PROPERTY by the front foot. The
city is givenino power to pay any part of
the cost out Ef the public treasury, and is
in no case liable for any part of the debt
except that Which It may collect from the
property owlsers. The result is, therefore,
that while thss law is upheld by the major
fty of the court as to the smaller cities of
the State. sosely by reason OF the provision
for a revision Of the assessment according
TO benefits after the work is done. the eff
feet OF the decision is that the charter OF
Indianapolis sand, perhaps, OF other larger
cities, which, contain no such provision, Is
Invalid undel the Norwood-Baker case"
This CONSTRUCTION OF the decision by the
Supreme Court will no doubt be hailed
with delight by many citizens of Indianapo-
lis who have earnestly deprecated any i'm
provements On account of their inability to
meet their assessments.
Assuming Shat the above construction is
the correct oNe all that the property holder
would have 10 do in case of an
Improvement under the Barrett law would
be to enjoin khe city, when the case would
be tried on its merits, establishing either
the validity pr invalidity OF the city char
ter.
