What is wrong or unlawful in em- ploying the territorial prisoners to
 construct a storage UTILIZE reservoir at Tonto PRISON Basin? As it is now LABOR. offenders against the
 law are treated better than good, law-abiding citizens. By keeping them in idleneSS we place a premium on crime. The good, ac- cording to our present system, arc punished for. the sins of the wicked. The men who are loyal to law, who pay the taxes, who earn their bread by the sweat of their brows, are made to suffer; while the loafcrs and tramps, the robbers and murderers are comfortably housed and clothed and kept in idleness.
 Is there any just reason why this state of affairs should continue in definitely? Is there any good req son why the law breakers should not be made to earn their keep?
 Every year the residents of the Salt River valley-a domain wherein dwell one-third of the people of the territory, district that pays one third of the taxes of the territory suffer for lack of water to IT, rigate their lands, lands that have been wrested from the desert by many hardships and much toll. Is there any just reason why these hon est, loyal, industrious people should cSntinue to suffer indefinitely, and have insult added to injury by being compelled to give of their hard earned money for the purpose of feathcring the nests of d criminal arlstocracv!
 Why not take all able-bodied pris- oners from their comfortable quar- ters and make them labor for their own support and for the betterment of their brethren who have not robbed, nor defaulted, nor killed?
 Must the good forever bear the cross and the bad forever wear the crown? Must the prodigal forever triumph and the worthy forever bear the burdens?

PA JOHNSON Is HOT
ON TRAIL OF ElOPERS.

the following story about pair OF
lovers who were denied a marriage
license here last week:
AM irate parent. John johnson
who tills farm across the river near
Eliza. ILL.,, was In the city yesterday
looking for a young couple who have
left his place with the intention of
getting married.
The girl in the case is his 14-year-
old daughter Minnie. and his young
farm hand. Louis Hahn, is the one
with whom she eloped. They donned
their handsomest on the Fourth and
drove to Rock Island to get a mar
riage license, and although accom-
panied by an older couple, the clerk
of Rock Island county suspected that
something was wrong and refused
them permit 10 wed, whereupon
they vi tied Davenport. where they
had no better success, the clerk deny
ing them a license because of the
girls youth.
MIR. johnson is hot on the trail of
the runaways and threatens to prose-
to the reform school if he overtakes
them. Young Hahn came to him last
winter representing that he had no
home and no employment. and asked
for work. While on the farm he be-
came blindly infatuated with John
sons daughter. She said she did not
care for him in the least and thought
him silly to care so much for her, but

ments show, became contagious

path, however, they are apt to be
