HUGHES 'FLOPS." :"
krizona's Ex- Governor Joins the
 Pr0hibiti0niStS.
AIfer Being Burned in Effigy and Beaten by His Enemies He Hopes for the PuIverization of the Rum Power.

EX-GOVernOr huSneS or the 1uCSOn Star in New Voice, under date of Sep tember 17th he announces his with drawl from 'the despotism of rum power'' and tenders ''his services to tho National Prohibition party" At the same time he wired John G. Wooley, the Prohibition presidential candidate, and offered his services to the Prohibit ton national committee for the campa- ign. His services were promptly accepted and an invitation to accompany MT. Wooley in his special train was wired him. The following is, in part, what the New Voice has to say of it's distin- guished convert. A portion of it will, however, be news to the governor him. self, new to his republican neighbors and news to his lates democratic con- freres. It says:
 Governor Hughes also telegraphs The New Voice his, reason for the change. During this seventeen years of warfare with the liquor business, Governor Hughes has had a rough time. He has been burned in effigy, he was villifed, slandered and lied about beyond the endurance of the average man, once he was assaulted and nearly killed. For ged telegrams and forged letters have been freely employed in attempts to ''make Q case'' against him. In 1892, when he was making his light for the governorship of Arizona, the saloon keepers and gamblers offered to with I al . ho his Prohibition and Woman's Suffrage agitation. Hughes snapped his fingers in their faces. He finally won the ap- pointment. by virtue of his having led the Arizona delegation to the demo- cratic convention and cast the five votes for his nomination. At the urgent re- quest of the liquor men and gam blers, the governor was dismissed by MT. Cleveland. few years later.
 Thirty years ago Governor Hughes lived in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. Later he served two terms in congress from Kansas City, Mo. Failing health car ried him to Arizona His career in the territory, besides his period of governor ship, has been marked by two terms as district attorney and one term as attor- ney general. Besides this, he has ser we'd as United States Court Commissio- neer. In 1892, he was Worlds Fair commissioner. He now resides at Tue son. where he edits weekly paper, the Star.
 Early in 1896, we'll known party prohibitionist suggested of the gov ernor that he was out of place in the democratic ranks, rather wet camping ground for a Prohibitionist. ''That may be, ''replied Hughes, "but believe that I can do more effective work in that party at present. Just as soon as am persuaded that can be of more service in your ranks, I will be there, for my whole hope is with you for the pulverization of the rum power.
 At the Pittsburg convention 1896, Governor Hughes name was placed in nomination for president and he re- ceived a considerable vote, despite some uncertainty as to his political position and as to whether he would accept.
