THE News, a few weeks since,
took the Wickenburg News Herald
to task for apparently having sue
cumbed to the hypnotic influence
of the territorial secretary The
criticism was, perhaps, little caus-
tic, but the attitude of the Herald
warranted us in jabbing Dick-Wick
under the ribs. The article had a
healthy effect in that Editor Hall
iustifies the friendly attack of the
News and writes explanatory of
mis- position. He admits that Sec
rotary Stoddard attempted to pla-
cate him with. cheap advertising
contracts, that attention might be
diverted from the guirilla warfare
upon the territorial press For
this lack of esteem in which Mr..
Stoddard holds the press, Dick Wick
strikes the official several solar
plexus blows, and in his inimita BILE
style makes an abrasion every time
he yields the lash. In unity there
is strength, and the press is fortu-
nate in having the able cooper
alton of the News-Herald, making
of us now a band of brothers fight
ing for a common cause. The press
of Arizona owes to Isaac T. Stod-
dard much well-earned space, which
should, and will be, unstintingly
donated in double-leaded denunci-
atory articles of the questionable
methods resorted to by him to
''turn an honest dollar" Mr..
Stoddard's action is not in keep
ing with the intregity of other fed
eral appointees for Arizona, nor are
his methods in consonance with
President Roosevelt's ideal of a
conscientious official, and il al.
lowed to retain the secretaryshiI

ministration as to ALLEVIATE the re

SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 7. 1903

In an editorial THE WILLIAMS
News credits Councilman Ashurst
with the statement that he will vote
for the repeal of all railroad tax
exemption. 1t is to be hoped that
Mr. Ashurst has been incorrectly
quoted 1t is time that Arizona
ceased voting tax exemptions for
railroads, but we should keep faith
with those roads that were built,
and are being built, as a result of
the passage of such laws in the
years past. 1t will be but a few
years until their exemptions expire
and they can be lawfully taxed.
No more tax-exemption laws, but
let us keep those laws already
passed--Douglas International.
Having had his attention di-
rected to the above paragraph,
Councilman Ashurst reiterates his
former statement, and in the letter
SHOWING assures his numerous
friends that the interests of the
public will not suffer at his hands.
