Killed in Jail.

Joseph Fletcher, a negro, a recently
re-enllsted United States soldier. OF
Troop F. 9th regular cavalry, was shot
in jail here Friday by Deputy Sheriff
Thos. A. Dawson, and died instantly.
The deceased was drunk the night be-
fore when he boarded the west bound

H~uachua, Arizona. AS be became
dangerously unruly and drew a knife,
four trainmen overpowered him, roping
him hand and foot, and telegraphed
here for the officers to arrest him. On
the arriva of the train here
Fletcher was turned over to the
police. He resisted officers Opie.

ing Fletcher instantly. After a lengthy
examination Of all the witnesses the
Coroner's jury returned a verdict that
the killing was done by Deputy Sheriff

H Beers FRIEND.

The Beers have a new friend In the
Hon. Webster Davis. who has resign
ed from a high official position to plead
their cause in the United States, be-
cause Mckinley would not permit him
to hold Office and speak in their behalf.
These poor people whose little Repub-
lies are the only bright spot on Ozark.
est Africa, can have no hope of help
from the crowned heads of Europe.
These can see them slaughtered and
grow glad, because if their form of
government be right, then the thrones
on which those monarchs sit, must
erumble to decay. What care they for
the lives of a few thousand plain peo-
pie when their crowns are at stake on
the very issue these plain people shed
their blood to maintain 3? Neither can
these Burghers look now for help to
what was, only a little while ago, the
greatest republic of the world. That,
too, has been transformed. it is no
longer what its projectors intended, it
has dropped from its high estate, and
imperialism runs rampant over its do
main. The plain people are with the
Burghers in their heroic strife, but
the kingly people, those i'll high places,
the rich, the stately, the lords of this
realm are their enemies, they hail
British triumphs, they rejoice in the
death of the oppressed. they have fat
tened on spoils themselves and they
have no sympathy with the downtrod-
den. We hope Mr.. Davis may to some
extent change this disgraceful senti.
ment in the nation.

NATIONAL INFAMY,

The browning infamy of the twenti-
eth century has been enacted. 1t
came early and is in the shape of a
tariff tax laid upon Porto Rico. 1t is
a surrender to trusts for a campaign
fund which could not be collected had
the crime not been committed. 1t is
sugar coated without and filled with
poisonous nicotine within, it is base
and d~astardly and will do more to-
ward driving from power the sordid
party now holding the reins of gov
eminent than any other one thing,
the bubonic war plague of the Philip
pines not excepted. How humiliating
it all is.
Gen. Miles on entering Porto Rico
promised those people they should be
treated as American citizens. This
was a solid compact. but Republican
like it was broken.
The President said: at is our plain
duty to give these people free trade"
But he weakened and took it all back.
Oxnard for the trusts went before
the Ways and Means Committee and
told them this part of the Presidents
message was distasteful and must not
be supported.
Secretary Root in terms said the
same as the President. Other persons
In high places had said the same. All
have been made to recant under the
terrifying and imperialistic threat of
the sugar and tobacco trusts, and all
have humbly apologized. Congress,
which is made up on the Republican
side of the creatures of trusts, cringed
before their masters, the President
cringed before Congress, the Senate
cringed before the three, and the rep
utation of the nation has been
slnirched, and we are disgraced before
the Porto Ricans, and in the eyes of
the civilized world. We have always
been looked OH by other nations as
tricky, as being without honor in a
bargain, as being cheats and bunco
steerers, and we deserve it. Our goods
foreigners say are shoddy, our meats,
rather u fruits, infected, our meas
ures short, and in general we are I'M
reliable. Now our national honor par
takes of the nature of our goods and
we stand condemned. We are told
that the people do not understand the
question. Certainly Mr.. Mckinley
and Mr.. Root did understand it when
they wrote, but as soon as they found
the Trusts were aggrieved they chang
ed their minds. The people do not
and cannot understand breaches of
faith, and the press which usually
does not allow itself to condone q ma
tional deception and lie, has never
understood it, and never will, if to
means to befoul their
pages with an advocacy of such an in
famous and disgraceful act.

COL. HUBARD'S CANDIDACY.

The Republicans have conferred a
very empty honor on not too full ii
vessel when they presented Col. r. Il.
HUBBARD with the Congressional numi-
nation in this district. Heis a nice old
gentleman We understand, from those
who have the pleasure of his acc uain
lance. Not many people in these parts
ever heard of him, none save his CO.
of1iceholders seem to know bin. but
that makes little difference, there are
many things of which the people of
the Tenth district have not heard, and
are not particularly worse off on &C
count thereof. But the Colonel will
serve a purpose, he is the boss made
candidate, he will carry the banner as
they say, he may get a little Campaign
fund to spend, he will make some new
acquaintances. lie will pass we hope a

ADMIRAL DEwEY'S CANDIDACY.

The announcement by Admiral Dew
ey of his candidacy for the presidency
is pathetic. 1t is sad that he cannot
see that he is not wanted, and that be
has allowed some misguided persons
to unduly influence him. The trouble
with, the Admiral is that he has never
been among crowds, he has seen
nothing of the people, and therefore
falls into the error Of supposing that
because there may have been some
p~ersons.in New York when he reached
there from Manila and that he has
seen other throngs at other points IN
passing, the persons composing these
crowds were for him for the presiden-
cy. In this he is more at sea than
when on the distant oceans furtherest
wave. He might fill the Office we'll, he
might make an admirable president,
but then be never will. The demand
for him has lessened since he made the
fatal mistake of signing that deed;
that was his political death warrant,
and no pardon, no amnesty granted
from any source will ever restore him
to bis ancient and honorable estate.
He, of course, would be compelled to
run as a Democrat, this he could not
Go since he has never been one. We
have watched the awkwardness of the
new convert, especially of him who
changes sides for mercenary purposes,
as almost all who have changed with
in our knowledge have done. If young
they twist, and squirm, and wobble,
in their attempt to fit Themselves to
their new conditions, and sometimes
become presentable after the fashion
of the country lad who thinks he has
all the agony on when he bedecks him
self in his first ten dollar suit Of ready
made clothes. If he is old, just about
Admiral Dewey's age, he blundeTs
about like a blind horse, and before he
knows what has happened tumbles into
the mire which is sure to bese5 his
footsteps. He also loses his self res
pect. He neither trusts himself nor is
be trusted, and he ends his life dis
gusted that be lived, with his friends
apologizing for his conduct and char
acter. The only parsonage OF note who
has bailed the sound of the Admiral's
guns is the Hon. Grover Cleveland.
He is reported as delighted, and nc
doubt is. That gentleman must he
hungry for some political pleasure. He
has not been overwhelmed with such
of late, and this is his opportunity. 1t
will not be calculated, however, to
strengthen the Admiral with the mass
es of the Democratic party to let this
news get abroad, in fact We know of
no-On single occurrence which would
so effectually sink him to the bottom
of the political sea as this, if generally
known. He would be strong, since Mr..
Cleveland's endorsement, with that
branch of the people who once called
themselves Democrats, but when
things did not go just their way,
branched off into a higher sphere Of
party life, and either voted for McKin-
ley or Palmer and Buckner. The only
resemblance borne just now to these
by the Admiral is that be is willing to
run with any set of hounds which can
overtake the hare. Outside of these
any prophet can foresee he will have
no following, and that he will hardly
get his craft launched before it will be
shiyered on the political rocks.
