Butler has about boxed every side of
the political compass. He has varied in
views as the winds vary. He has
blown hot and cold on almost every
question he has touched. He is al
American Boxer" He abused the
democrats for not eliminating the ne
gro vote. He was dreadfully afraid
that h legislature of 1899 would fail
of it's duty as to the Jim Crow car and
the disfranchising of the negroes. He
was scared over an anticipated failure
of the democrats to call a state consti-
tutional convention. In his dirty sheet
of December 18th, 1898, he said this:
1T seems now that the Jim Crow"
car was h only kind of white SUI
Ipremacy that the democratic machine
was clamoring for. The Caucasian
last week called attention to the
strange fact hat as soon as the negro
Iscarecrow campaign had closed the
democratic machine at once brought
forward its great remedy to cure ne
gro domination. This remedy, strange
to say, was h establishment of the
Jim Crow cars"
This fellow got happier later on.

When the democrats eliminate the
negroes from politics, then those who
voted the democratic ticket Simply be-

licans, will be free men and can vote

addition of this stage and a number of horses lately purchased, makes this the best equipped line in the territory. The owners Of this line are determined, by good equippage and service, to draw the business Of the hourishing camp this way, and should receive the hearty cooperation of the people of Mesa and the valley to maintain the route. Red Rock is bidding heavily for the route, a subsidy of $1 200 having been offered this company to change the line to that place. They are now spending in the neighborhcod of s4OO a month in Mesa for feed and blacksmithing 10 maintain the route, besides directing the bulk of the trade now and hereafter to the valley if possible. What the busi- ness men of Mesa should do is to com- pine and ship goods to Mesa by car loads, and control the large business If the Ray mine instead of letting the trade go farther away. The road from Mesa to Ray is the best and most prac- ticable and if the business men of Mesa would get together they could control the trade of that hourishinS and fast growing camp.
