THE COTTON CROP.
Leading Buyer Says II viii BE
Larger this Year.

Oklahoma City, June 9.-Rob.
ert Irby, the cotton buyer, when
asked in regard to the cotton crop
of this year. said:
think that the crop this year
will be better even than it was last
year. There is a great increase in
the acreage because of the failure
of oats and the farmers are using
their oat land for cotton. Plants
are as fine as ! ever saw and every
indication is for a larger crop than
Oklahoma has ever before pro.
duced. In the Indian Territory
the conditions are as good as they
are here. Cotton will not com
nand the price this year that it did
last, in my opinion, but the prices
will range from six to seven cents
and there is a lare margin for the
planters in this figure"

Unless sle is a healthy mother. No woman can. If the baby has drained her vitality; if its care is a tax; if, in short, the baby is burden instead of a blessing, how can she enjoy itl She loves 1t, but she cannot feed 1t. She yearns for 1t, but has not the strength to fondle it.
 There is nothing more beautiful in the world than a healthy mother and her healthy child. The madonna is the highest reach of human art. In the serene strength which art gives to the typical mother and child there is distinct denial of suffering and weakness as necessity of motherhood. But how few women are there to whom motherhood is naturally an abiding joy. In how many cases a woman dates her loss of bealth from the birth of her child To ali such suffering women Dr. Pierce's Fa- vorite Prescription comes as a veritable god-send. It prepares the mother for her hour of trial, tranquilizes her nerves, encourages her appetite, and brings her rrstful sleep. It makes the baby's ad- vent practically painless, and gives the mother abundant strength to nurse and uourish her child
 Every claim made for "Favorite Pre- scription is supported by the testimon- ials of wives and mothers, thousands in number, and covering in their several experiences the whole range of womanly suffering. In a great number of cases after the utter failure of all doctors and medicines, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre- scription, tried as last resort, has ef- fected perfect and permanent cure.
 Sick women are invited to consult Dr. Pierce by letter free. All womanly con- fdences held under the seal of strict professional privacy. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N Y.

GOES UP IN SMOKE.
No Foundation For the Removal of
 Judge Street.

A Los Angeles Times special tele- gram from Washington says: Briefly, members of the bar of Arizona say that Judge Street lives 'too high" for his salary. They say that he was in exceedingly moderate financial cir cumstances, but that lately he has been able to live in exceedingly pleas ant circumstances in Arizona, and spend some of his time at expensive hotels in New York and Atlantic city. So far as known, no direct charges are made. Friends of Judge Street, Among whom is Governor Murphy, declare that these charges are ridicu- lous and will be disposed of as soon as hearing is made before the Department of Justice. Gov ernor Murphy is in Washington now in the interests1of Judge Street.
 Washington, Sept. 4.-Judge Web ster Street, chief justice of the su- greme court of Arizona, has had a conference with the attorney general in regard to the charges filed against him by Arizona parties which on their face tend to involve his integrity as a judge. It is said, however, that the charges are not sufficiently specified to justify the attorney general to take cognizance of them.

CHARGES AGAINST STREET.
SuppOsitiOn is that His Decisions in Mining Cases Cut to
 the Quick.

Speaking of the bringing of charges against Chief Justice Street, the Phe- nix Gazette states it is not thought that anything will come from the charges made against him. For sev- eral weeks those familiar with the dis trict court doings have been aware that charges were to be preferred.
 The charges allege that Judge Street has accepted bribes in his off cial capacity, and rendered decisions in accordance. The two principal cases in which these allegations are made are the famous Cobre Grande and King of Arizona mining suits.
 In these cases the interests at stake ran into millions and affected two of the largest mining properties in Ari- zona. No one here believes that the decisions handed down were in any way conditioned on bribes paid to the court.
 Several of Judge Streets friends said yesterday that he would have no trouble in disproving the charges which were founded on malice and spite.
 Another legal gentleman in speak ing of the affair said: 'In the first there is no possible chance of the judge having accepted any money He has not yet rendered a decision, and how could he have been bribed, In this case, each side presented a written petition asking that they be allowed to compromise the matter ac- cording to their own liking. What cause would there be for anyone brib- ing the court2 He did nothing that furthered the interests of any particu- lar person.

a few months ago, the echo of his commonplace mingling with the masses, his indiffer- ence to fear, his utter disre- gard of association with the miner or the laborer, his frank and plain manner in familiar izing himself with conditions and surroundings of a people strugglingagainst misfortune, gives to him and his today a tender and earnest sympathy from away down on the bor- der of the republic and a hope that he may live.

BUSTED UP AGAIN.

The association of Governor Mur- phys name with that of Chief Justice Street in a hostile manner has col lapsed. Associated press dispatches from Washington, linked with that of subsequent events, place the execu- tive of the territory in light that is decidedly gratifying and refreshing on this much discussed matter.
 From the beginning of the contro- versy that had for its object the pos sible removal of Judge Street, up to an official investigation of his con- duct, no frmer or more enthusiastic supporter has this official had than Governor Murphy. The dirty and cancerous insinuations of newspapers backed by personal malice and splen- etic decay, that a certain mining de. cision affecting certain residents ol this city was again to be unraveled and displayed in all its iniquity and cunning, falls again as fiat and unwar- ranted as the accusation itself. But that trait Is no concern or interest, es pecially to the Courier. For decade that sheet, unlike the true blue rattle snake, strikes without rattling. Nc matter what may be the country's ill: or the personal ambitions of men, il ever there is an occasion or an inceh' tive for it to coil and send its fangs into the Murphy's it never falters tC do so. The beautiful attitude oI Governor Murphy on the Street in vestigation is hard pill for our 'es teemed" sheet to swallow. Pull the hole in after you, your feet track.

TIME TO MOVE.

From all sections of the union re ports are dribbling in that anarchis- tic societies are rejoicing over the shooting of the president. We trust this is true. It furnishes an indisput able link that there are organizations everywhere of these assassins, and that they are bold and irreconcilable enough to parade their motives def antly and triumphantly. With the Haymarket tragedy of Chicago, the Mafia troubles of New Orleans, the Patterson, New Jersey, incident, and other trivial deeds, the consummation of the Mckinley tragedy, must of ne cessity awaken a fresh and morbid interest in the cause that threatens all, and particularly the influence and power of the nation. Legislation should be passed by congress of a special nature directed squarely and forcibly against this element, and it should be treated as high treason for any association of men to get together for any purpose to attach themselves to any organization other than for in- dustrial purposes. Anarchistic so- cialistic or nihilistic performances, of physical or oratorical character should be included in the penalty. Legislation should also prevail to bar the foreign immigrant of the lower type from entering unless he is con versant with the orthodox language and appreciates the principles of the country. Today throughout the na ton are hundreds of fiery and villai nous street takers are preaching the doctrine that has leG up to our late aff1iction, and because 'freedom of speech" is tolerated, no one dare5 0r cares to step in.
 Saturday evening in Prescott a street blasphemer endeavored to in noculate his hearers with his ideas of running a government or moulding ones life, according to foreign ideas. In short he endeavored to proselyte, or drive Americans away from Amer ica.
 If there is no law to cover these in tellectnal gorroters, it is easy to make one, and the surest and safest way to do so is to adopt the old western methods that prevailed before politi- cal chicanery was considered or tech nical law books made justice a long road to travel.

SUIT OVER MINING STOCK.
Litigation Has Been Commenced in No- gales Over Sonora N. and M.
 Company's Stock

Last Saturday H. E. Stevens ap- peared before |. S. Court COmmis- sioner R. D. George and made appli- cation for an order restraining the Sonora Milling and Mining company from issuing stock to pr. G. K. Sing, the former owner of the big silver properties now being worked by them in the Altar district in Sonora. The order was granted. Mir. Stevens, the applicant for the restraining order, claims that he had a contract with Dr. Sing to the effect that he Ste vens) was to receive half of the pur- chase price obtained for the proper ties, which was S1OO,OOO; that Dr. Sing now refuses to stand by the con tract, hence the order to restrain the company from issuing any stock to Dr. G. K. Sing, his servants or any one acting for him.
 President Con O'Keefe arrived in the city last night from the, mines and was seen this morning by the Vidette Reporter, regarding the Ste vens-Sing difficulty. Mir. O'Keefe said: I have nothing to say regard ing the matter. It is no funeral of the company's. We have kept all our obligations to the letter and any diff culty Dr. Sing, from whomwe bought the properties. may have, does not affect us. 1 have just returned from the mines, where development work Is progressing on the new workings with most satisfactory results. Mir. Glore, our assayer, is getting some as says that would make your mouth water. Both Dr. Sing and Stevens are friends of mine and l am sorry to know they are having trouble and l hope to see them come to a satisfac- tory understanding"
 President O'Keefe will leave in a few days for the northern part of the territory on business for his com pany.-Nogales Vidette.

IMPORTANT MINING DECISION.
Litigation Temporarily Ended Over the
 Big Mammoth Mine.

A Florence telegram states that on Monday Judge Doan at Florence handed down a decision in the Nam moth Collins mine litigation, sustain ing the motion of the English stock holders to discharge Geo. P. Blair, re- ceiver of the mines. He will be given twenty days in which to submit de- tailed report of the conduct of affairs under his management. Affairs will then be turned over to Attorney Mor- gan of New York, who is a nephew of J. P. Morgan. It is claimed that the Farmers Loan and Trust Go. of New York, who are the creditors of the company are not satisfied with Mir. Blair's management and are desirous of knowing how S7,000 could be spent in two weeks. Hence the ruling.

ARIZONA AND STATEHOOD.
Governor Murphy Interviewed Is to
 Admission.

In the course of his recent visit tC New York, Governor Murphy was in terviewed by the Mail and Express or the subject of Arizona. The news paper said:
 "Gov. \. o. Murphy of Arizona who was ot the Holland house yester, day, but left last night for Washing ton, expressed himself forcibly in al interview regarding the admission oi the territory to statehood. He was appointed by Harrison, was in con gress during Cleveland's administra- ton and Was appointed governor by President Mckinley in 1897. He is therefore familiar with the condition of Arizona. He said:
 We have been seeking for twelve years to be recognized as a state Northwestern territories have been admitted to statehood during this time, but for political reasons Arizona has been kept out.
 An erroneous impression has pre- vailed in congress that the territory was either in favor of free silver or democracy. It Is true that the vote is close. but in a national election it would undoubtedly go republican. So there is really no excuse for ex- cluding us for political reasons.
 We do not beg for admission we demand it, and will continue to do so every year. Our population has increased rapidly during the last ten years and it is now about 10000 and the territory is very prosperous. Its assessed valuation increased S6,000,- GOO last year and is now S39.000,0O0. No one is burdened with taxation.
 There is no fake or wildcat min ing in Arizona. I issued letter warning people against fakes and it had the desired effect. Nearly 10000 men are directly or indirectly affected in copper and gold mining and every other industry is thriving. Railroads are being built in various directions and new towns are being established all over the territory

TIE NAVAL CONTROVERSY.
Intimation that Sampson Will Have a
 Direct Charge to Face.

Washington, Sept. 3.-Washington would be peaceful at present were it not for the Sampson-Schley contro- versy, but both sides are so busy in considering what they will do to each other, that theIe is a semi-sulphurous suggestion of war. The adherents of Admiral Sampson have thus far been kept occupied in explaining as much of their chiefs cratic conduct as they can without giving their case away beforehand. Some of the explana- tions do not explain.
 The latest development in the case is the discovery of the fact that tn Cuban, General Garcia, knew or sur missed that .Cervera was coming out of the harbor of Santiago on the morn ing of the 3rd of July. His informa- ton presumably, came from the refu- gee French consul at Santiago, and was presumably wig-wagged to Samp- son, as there was a code of signals ar ranged between Garcia and Sampson for that precise emergency. It twould appear therefore that Sampson not only thought that Cervera might come out at that time, and as he has already claimed, made all arrange ments to stop him should this hap pen. but that he actually knew that the sortie of the Spanish fleet was about to take place, and knowing, de liberately absented himself with one of the best ships of the squadron, and was hull down behind the horizon, seven miles away, when the time came for him to make his everlasting repu- tation. Admiral Schley's friends took immense delight in arising and ask ing with one voice 'Why?" It really seems, sometimes, as if the Schley press of the country, which means most of the newspapers, were one big interrogation point addressed to the unlucky Sampson.
 That Schley is the hero of the en- listed men there is no doubt. The ''jackies" on his ship swear by him, and so do the gunners and the sailors on other ships, not including, of course, the New York. Schley was the only one of the three prominent admirals, Dewey, Schley and Samp- son, who attended the banquet at the Waldorf-Astoria given for the enlist ed men during the New York cele- bration. Schley made a speech which took the sailors by storm.
 It has been suggested that General Shafter should be called as witness when the court of inquiry meets. It is not known just what Simpsons supporters in the navy department think of this suggestion, and for ob- vious reasons it Is not likely to be known.

THE BOSS PUNCHER
Belongs to Arizona, but is Now
 in Texas.

The Fl Paso Herald says: Clay McGonagill holder of the worlds record for roping and tying cattle, came in on the T. & P. last night from Midland, Texas, his home, and left this morning for Bisbee, Ariz.
 It will be remembered that this young Texas cowboy made the best time in the steer tying contest at the Fl Paso carnival last January, though the time made was not very good ow- ing to the poor condition of the ground and other adverse circum- stances. About a month after the carnival, Mir. McGonagill broke the worlds record in a contest at Tucson, Ariz., roping and tying his steer in twenty-three seconds. That is the best time ever made, hence he has held the worlds record since then.

Nothing Specific Against the Conduct
 of the Arizoaa Justice.

An associated press dispatch from Washington yesterday stated that Justice Street was before the depart ment of justice yesterday in the mat ter of the charges preferred against him. The charges, it was said. were not specific and would not likely, therefore. be entertained by the at torney-general. A letter was received from Judge Street, in which he said that the charges were general. He was accused ot corruption, lack of dignity and degeneration. No refer ence had been made, as was reported. to his decisions in the Cobre Grande. Ging Of Arizona or any other case. His nephew. Percy A.
