Cherokee Bill Smith made some start
ling disclosures to the officers at Las AMI
mas on Monday. He claims that the
Stanley brothers had friends in Arizona
and Indian territory who were to join them
in attacks on the various depots and small
banks in the southwest and states that
the only thing which prevented the or
ganization of band of outlaws was tho
robbing of the Carlton postoffice, which
resulted in his capture. He says he will
give valuable information to the authori-
ties at his trial. But Bill may be doing
some tall romancing in order to attract
attention. Some outlaws take great de-
light in notoriety.

Vote Your Own Opinion
Regardless of Politics

We have heard it rumored that
some men employing miners in
this immediate section were in
structing their men how to vote.
We trust this is not so and do not
believe there is a mine owner in
this section who is attempting to
dictate to their miners as to how
they should cast their vote 1t is
every mans privilege to vote for
whom he pleases, and as an Amer
ican citizen he should exercise that
privilege and vote for the best men
out for office, regardless of politics.
In county affairs, politics has no.
thing to do with a MANS work af-
ter he is elected to office, and he
should be elected because of his fit
ness for office, not because he hap
pens to be a democrat, a republi-
can, or q populist.

Mrs. Margharet Zannetti, who
came here for her health about two
months ago and has been visiting
with her brother-in-law, John Zan-
netti, died Wednesday. Mrs. Zan-
netti was but thirty-two and leaves
q husband and four children in
San Francisco to mourn her death.
During the short time she has been
here, the deceased made many
friends by her kindly disposition
and the fortitudc with which she
suffered. The funeral was held
Thursday afternoon, a large numb
er OF friends and relatives attend
ing. Interrment took place in the
new cemetery north of town.
Statehood will give Arizona more
advertisement than the territory
has ever before received. The
eastern finaicial world is now be-
coming interested in mining and if
Arizona and her resources can be
strongly advertised, the result will
be an influx of millions of dollars
into the territory to develop our
mineral resources. The more
money coming into the territory for
this purpose, the more work and
business in all branches will there
be. The election of Bob Morrison
means statehood beyond doubt, and
statehood will help every man, wo-
man and child in the territory.
Vote for Morrison.

are subdued. Hence the shortest and
safest way to develop truth; that is,
divine truth; in oneself. is to conquer
the passions. II would said an I'M
believer once to the writer, "cheerfully
sacrifice my passions if 1 only had
faith" The only answer the writer
could give was: You would soon have
faith if you were to sacrifice your pas
sions, and live according to Christian
truths
Under the circumstances it would be
impossible to give persons with such
disposition faith, or for them to ac-
quire it, but what is possible and with
in the reach of all is to live UP to the
truth, in order to test the other side
of the case, namely, that virtuous
life will soon bring forth faith. Thus
will be seen the harmony that exists
between reason and habit on the ques-
ton of faith

The New York Evening Post says
that I'VE are glad that it has fallen to
two American nations, Mexico and the
United States, to make the first ap-
peal to its jurisdiction. The case of
the 'Pious Fund is a very pretty quar-
rel from every legal point of view, and
it is not so important but that the de-
cision may be accepted without any
strain upon the loyalty of either ma
ton. This promises that the first ses-
sion will be of considerable interest,
and that the judges will have the
great advantage of proceeding imper-
turably without regard to Interior
embarrassments. AS for the Pious
fund, it's story is a curious one. Origi-
nally a private benefaction, it was adj
ministered by the Jesuit missionaries of
California from 1897 to 1767. After
the expulsion of the Jesuits it was
transferred to the Franciscans, from
whom the newborn Mexican republic
took it, guaranteeing, however, by way
of indemnity, the payment in perpetu-
ity of per cent on the capital to the
church authorities. "Perpetuity" and
the payments stopped abruptly with
the cession of California to the United
States, and now the church in Califor-
MIA sues the Mexican government for
arrears of interest amounting to about

NORTH CAROLINA BIGoTRY.
Passion Applying the Torch to Places
of Catholic Worship


Recent news from North Carolina is
somewhat alarming. Some time age
| our readers were informed that a mum
! Der of shack churches" were being
erected in the mountain regions of the
far south. A number of these were
built in North Carolina, where mission
aries have been at work nearly two
| years. Many converts have been made,
and, until recently, the outlook has
been one of considerable brightness.
| Now, however, a change has come
| with lightning suddenness. News has
| arrived that an outbreak of virulent
bigotry has shown itself in many sec
lions of North Carolina. Catholics are
| regarded more dangerous than Nor
! mons by those new Boxers. Nor is the
hatred referred to confined to language
alone. Passion is applying the torch
to places of Catholic worship. Two
churches already have been given to

interior; the other is that of st. Teresa.

me same report states that of late
great activity on the part of Catholics
mas manifested itself in the erection of
chapels at intervals throughout the
rural districts. So ignorant are the
people in these parts that they believe
TINS to be forerunner of great evil
In consequence, they have been
wrought up to highly excited condi-
ton. This has been accumulated by a
secular country weekly, which coun-
sells that the people treat the Catholics
as they would Mormons. What this
means can be best judged from the
above incendiary act.
People so densely ignorant are to be
more pitled than blamed, says Church
Progress of st. Louis. Perhaps the
roasting alive of Catholics would afford
tnem more satisfaction than burning
their houses of worship. But this is a
pleasure, or a passion, they are not
ilkeiy to indulge. Their own safety no
doubt is the only thing that prevents
lime, however, viii tame them. The
spread of Catholictty has never been
lmpeded by such obstacles. On the
contrary they are it's surest sign of
success.

Protestant missionaries in Catholic
countries occasionally stir UP strife, and

country, but how shall we regard re-
cent deeds in North Carolina?

New York's Shoddy Aristocracy

THE Hon. Henry Watterson of Lou
isville, KY, has been commenting
in his own peculiar way upon that
portion of American society that calls
Itself the -Four Hundred. Dropping
the rapier for the moment, Mr. Wat
terson takes up the bludgeon and
swings it with lustiness which makes
us marvel that he thought it worth
| While to waste so much strength in
smashing so slight bubble AS a
literary effort it certainly has merit
if nothing else is disturbed by the Ken
tuckian's presentation. 1t is published
on our first page.
| Most newspapers speak in terms of
praise of Mr.. Watterson's flashing of
New York's shoddy aristocracy, while
! others are inclined to think that the
Kentuckian is firing off a cannon to
dislodge a swallow. Harper's Weekly
says that the excoriation which he ap-
plies to this enthusiastically small por-
ton of the society of the United States
suggests the employment of regi-
ment of artillery to crush a mosquito;
for, after all, the Four Hundred in
the whole body of American life is of
no more moment than this temporarily
annoying insect. In running over the
real factors of life as we live it in this
land, we cannot find that the men and
wome who constitute this Spartan band
of pleasure seekers impede any more
than they assist in the great move
ments which are at the bottom of our
national growth. The man of action
brushes them aside as he walks the
difficult paths from obscurity to
achievement, as if they were so many
gnats, the only difference being that
the gnat has power to sting which
the money .spenders of Newport and
New York are not invested with. In
art they have done nothing; as patrons
of music it is not they, but their
money, that counts, for no one ever
hears of an intelligent appreciation of
the subtleties of the great composers
among them; their influence on the |
drama is nil. and where. they try to
make 1t otherwise, experience has |

little short of ludicrous; in university |
life they are never even considered; !
and the interest that the public take |
in them is merely the same interest
they would show in any other colIec-
ton of strange things, and is based
wholly upon a morbid quality of mind
about as important as that which
prompts crowds to gather when a
horse falls in the street.
1T therefore, matters not at all
who they are or what they do,
where or how they do it, and
since they are not truly as
vicious as they would like people to
believe they are, there is no reason
Why they should attract the attention
even of Henry Watterson, who is old
enough to have become a philosopher,
md who should be astute enough, now
hat he has become man, to put aside
childish things. The man who talks
about the Four Hundred when there
ire great social problems on every side
# him to be solved is as wasteful of
lis time as fiddling Nero at the burn
ng of a Rome.

Archbishop Keane Tells of Work of
Jivervman

Archbishop John j. Keane of Du-
buque tells the story of man in Wash
ington who has given the world les
son in charity. The person L have in
mind, he said, was a hack driver, and
l got the story from his own lips. The
poor fellow was out in all kinds of
weather, as hackmen usually are, and
becoming respondent, he, like many
other poor fools, took to drink AS
| time went on he discovered that the
evil was getting the mastery and was
| dragging him down to the lowest
depths. One day he asked himself
Cant a fellow go up?" After brief
consideration he decided he could, but
not until he foreswore the drink habit
He made up his mind, however, and
tsoon realized that when he became
sober people had confidence in him. He
saved his money and it was not long
until he was prosperous. One day ne
was walking along the street when an
ex-convict, noticing his badge as a
member of the st. Vincent de Paul So
ciety, asked his assistance. The hack
man, who was now the owner of a
large livery stable, said: Come along
and [ will take care of you until you
are on your feet" And taking the poor
fellow with him he fixed up a lodging
room over his stable and furnished the
ex-convict with food and shelter. The
next day another ex-convict came and
he held out the same inducements.
Soon the home became well known
and hundreds of the unfortunates desir-
ing to lead better lives, were there and
received words of counsel from their
patron. Every night they would pray
together, men who had not thought of
God since they were children. The
liveryman would give them instructions
in right living and would spend all his
spare time in securing employment for
them and raising money to defray the
expenses of the home
And, said the speaker, during the time
the little establishment has been in ex-
istence more than 5000 ex-convicts
have been given a start in life. Here
is a grand example for charity, and the
good man told me that his success was
due to the fact that he always endeav-
ored to find the good that is in a man,

tive in trying to ferrit out the had.
