Rynum Rejected.

The Senate, by a tie vote, rejected the nomination of W. D. Bynum as general appraiser at the port of New York. The Chicago Records corres- pondent tells why the democratic senators objected to Bynum being con- firmed:
 There are two reasous why the demo- crats of the sensts refuse to confirm the nomination of ex-Representative Rynum of Indianapolis as member of the board of appraisers at the city of New York, which is practically life position, at a salary of s7 800 year, and one of the most agreeable under the government. The law requires that both political parties shall be represented on the board, and MT. Bynum was nominated as democrat. The democratic leaders in congress insist that this is not fair, because Mir, Bynum did everything in his power to defeat the last democratic candidate for the presidency and elect the repub- lican candidate, which is sufficient evi- dence, they think, that he is not a loyal democrat, and therefore should not be given one of the fattest plums allotted to the members of that party. h the second place, they decline to assist President Mckinley in paying his political debts and rewarding the democrats who aided in his election. It was bad enough for so prominent a man as Mir. Bynum to desert his party and support the candidate of his former political opponents without being so well rewarded for it, and they have endeavored to prevent him from en- toying the reward. They want to make an example of him. They in- tend to make 1t plain that no renegade dem ocrat can be rewarded by the republican party with theh consent and assistance. F furthermore, they think it is little early for the presi- dent to reward Mir. Bynum for his political services.

Printinu Without Ink.

A company has been formed to con- trol the process of printing without ink, by using electricity and chemically prepared paper. In short time, it is expected, this innovation will be com pletely introduced, and old methods revolutionized. There is one thing however that has resisted all innova- tions; that is Hostetter's Stomach Bit ters, which has many imitators, but no equals as cure for stomach, liver and bowel troubles. This peerless remedy has been the standard medicine of the American people for the past fifty years. It is wonderful medicine for dyspepsia, indigestion, biliousness, in- somnia, constipation and nervousness. It also prevents malaria, fever and ague. It keeps the stomach in good condition, and tue bowels regular
 Try it, and you will not be disappointed.

Country Journalism. .

Nothing wrenches the heart of true
 newspaper man like getting ''scooped"
 that is, having hated rival publish
 an item which has been overlooked by
 the lynx-eyed reporter in the hurly-
 burly of getting up three or four col
 ums of original matter every week to
 please the palate of the dearly beloved subscriber. On three occasions lately has the iron entered the soul of the TRIBUNE. One was when Captain Heating went to Tucson to have his teeth repaired, without letting us know the occasion of his trip. We have not felt exactly right about the Captain since, but it was doubtess an over- sight, and must be overlooked as long as he is one of our valued advertisers. A highly respected lady friend of the TRIBUNE went to Phoenix on similar mission, and again we got ''scooped," i" but it was the details principally that hurt. In cutting manner the Cheese knife remarked that the dentist gave the lady the option of returning the teeth in case they didn't fit. Of course people want such details of their make up published, and the TRIBUNE frank ly owns up to it's shortcoming in over looking the item. But the hardest blow was last week, when the news was published to the world that prominent citizen had fstula or something of that kind removed from his groin" This killed us dead, and we are now ready to quit.

- THE MAN WHO TOLD THE TRUTH.

There was a man who said one day Unto himself: Hereafter Shall not be base enough to say A single word that is lie. The truth I'll tell to each and all. To high and low, to great and small" And SO he bravely started out. His heart was strong. his spirit bold. Of all the things he talked about The truth, and nothing else, was told He scorned the tricks of speech through
 which Men make themselves adored and rich. He told the whole truth, nothing more, And when they bore him home that night His face was battered up and sore, And he was what is called Q sight. He lost his job. his friends are few, But he had learned thing or two.

 NJ. o. Bicknell, the general freight and passenger agent of the Phoenix Short Line, returned yesterday morn- ing from the Ray mine, where he has been for several days on business of his road. Mir. Bicknell was also at Kelvin, where the concentrating works are situated. He says that all the machinery has arrived and been put in place, the plant making it's start yesterday. He says that considerable building is going on. The company is erecting an immense store, the founda- tion having already been laid. The company has also it own railroad be- tween Kelvin and Ray, where the crushing is done. The train makes six trips day, carrying 50 tons of ore at each trip. Superintendent Truman was persuaded to visit Phoenix by Mir. Biclknell and is in the city to-day. He will meet with the board of trade. Tucson has offered good inducements to the company, and if Phoenix does not keep her eye open Tucson will get the trade.

Looks Bad for Lewis.
From the Tucson Star.l

In Court Commissioner Culver's of l fee the matter of the U. s. govern ment against Thomas Lewis came up yesterday afternoon. The charge was firing forest on the public domain, otherwise in the Catalina mountains.
 The defendant was represented by Roscoe Dale, and Asst. U. s. Atty. Bennett conducted the case for the , government. Mir. s. J. Holsinger, timbe inspector, gave testimony as to putting out the fire and made rough estimate of the losses.
 The complaining witness, H. c. Hen ming, former partner of Lewis, was on the stand and related the story of the trip from the Condon camp over the mountains and via Sabine canyon to Tucson. He said that shortly after o'clock on the morning of May l2, the two men shouldered their packs and started down the canyon. As they moved along, Lewis stumbled and injured himself in some way. The incident incensed him and he drew forth matches, remarking as-he did so and lighting the leaves, that the same cause would not hurt another person. Henning suggested to Lewis that he had better not fire the leaves as it might get him into trouble. These were all the words that passed respect ing the incident. In answer to the question as to seeing another fire in the mountains at the time, Henning said he did not.
 The testimony of Henning closed the preliminary examination. Henning and Lewis had some misunderstanding following their arrival in Tucson and the testimony came out from that fact.
 Commissioner Culver fixed the bail bond in amount equivalent to the pen alty, $5 ,000, but Attorney Dale protest ed. MT. Bennett stated that he was satisfied with bond in the sum of s 1000 and the court so fixed it. In de- fault Lewis was remanded to the county jail.
 On suggestion of Mir. Bennett Hen- ming gave bond in $200 to appear when the case should be called in the federal court early next fall.
 The defendant, Lewis, has borne good reputation. Both he and Hen- hing are miners.
 The penalty in cases like this, the firing of forests, means not less than sl,0OO or more than $5,O0O, committ- ment or both.
