VOTE FOR HARRY HIBBEN.

Harry Hibben is going to be the next recorder of Coconino county. If you are like the Irishman who said that he had always been against the government and always would be, you don't want to vote for Harry, as he is strictly for the government of the county in the best and most economical manner. It has also been said that you should only do that for which you are paid. yet there are times when a fellow has an opportunity to get in a little overtime that means a great deal to his employers and may result in saving them much money, for which extra work he receives the appreciation of the people in a substantial way-that of reelection to office. Such a case is that of Harry Hibben, who will be returned to office with a majority that any man might feel proud of. Vote for him and make it a little larger.

VOTE FOR JIM JOHNSON.

When the polls are closed next Tuesday evening and the ballots have been counted we confidently believe that the newly elected sheriff will be none other than James A. Johnson, our present able and efficient officer. There is one thing, especially, about him which we like and that is his true manli- ness If Jim is your friend he is your friend. If he has anything to say to you he will say it to your face, no matter whether you like it or not. An outspoken, upright man, as he has proven himself, he is one in whom the people are en- titled to and do place confidence that will never be misused
 Neither is Jim a member of the "howler" association that has re- gently sprung up among some of the rank and file over trivial mat ters- He is too liberal minded for anything of that sort. His race for office, throughout the entire campaign, has been conducted only in the most gentlemanly manner. We admire a man of that sort and the result of the election on next Tuesday will show that Jim has many more friends and admirers enough, in fact, to secure to him, by a handsome majority, the office for the ensuing two years. Vote for Johnson for sheriff. If you you don't know him (and that can hardly be possible, as he is known throughout the length and breadth of the county), take our word for it that he is the man for the position, and vote for him.
 It is said that an inexperienced man can soon gain the necessary experience. Certainly, but it may be costly to the county; so why should not the voters and taxpay- CTS return a man to office who has all the necessary experience, thus taking no chances, especially when his work in the past has been of the highest order and his admins tration most economical? Again we say, vote for Jim Johnson for sheriff of Coconino county.

been a nice way to treat the demo- cratic NEWS, wouldn't it? But it happens the NEWS is independent" It also happens that it will remain so, and we may state that now, as in the past, we are open for any legitimate business, political or otherwise.

HOW IT LOOKS TO US.

For some weeks past the NEWS management has been severely criticised because we deemed it proper to sell to the republican party a page in the paper. The kicks, of course, came from demo- crats-
 In the first place we wish to say that the NEWS is not now. nor has it been, conducted on partisan plans. Ever since the present man agement assumed control the word Independent" has been printed at the head of this column We have deemed it advisable to conduct the paper thus and our judgment has been sustained Secondly, it has never been the policy of the office to refuse legitimate business offer. For that reason, though being an independent" paper, when the democrats in their call for a pri- mary election specified that candi- date announcements be published in either the Flagstaff Gem or the NEWS, we did not refuse to publish them When the democrats asked us to print their primary ballots we did not refuse to do so. It would not have been good business judgment Later on. the repub- licans made us a proposition to buy a page for five weeks We sold it to them That's what we are here for-business-
 Now come a few democrats and make a great howl because we did not refuse this last offer. Wonder who has to pay the running ex- penses of the NEWS and who would pay them if we didn't attend to business and pay them ourself?
 Now, what more claim have the democrats upon the NEWS, as an Sc independent " paper, than have the republicans? True, the editor of this paper. personally, is demo- crat; but, we are now, and have been, conducting an independent" paper, and the expressions of the NEWS have been unbiased We told the democrats we would sell them a page if they desired to buy. They didn't, and that settled it as far as we were concerned Not so with some of them They had a kick coming. Thought the NEWS should support the ticket-presum- ably, for nothing. We may state here that we are not in business for our health; also that some of our democratic friends are not SO mar row minded as others.
 Supposing the NEWS had been a democratic paper, how would we have felt about the sheet that the democrats tried to organize at Flag staff some time since? It was in tended to have the work done in Flagstaff and call it a Williams paper, trying to secure advertising support here That would have

OFFICER WYATT SEES
Mr.. RICHARDSON
He is Confident Of Securing
Conviction of Six of the
Alleged Gamblers.

commemorative Attorney D. C.. Rich
ardson and wife returned TO Richmond
yesterday morning after a delightful trip
of several weaAs to the Pacific slope, the
well-known attorney having been dele
gate from Virginia to the Grand En-
campment of the Knights of Pythias.
Mr. Richardson went down to his Office
in the City Hall early yesterday after
noon to look over the matters which
have collected since his departure, and
one OF his first callers was Acting Ser
geant William E. Wyatt, who is prose-
cutting the gambling cases which are to
come up for hearing in the Police Court
before Justice John Crutchteld on the
18th of this month.
While Mr.. Richardson was aware that
cases had been entered against several
alleged gamblers since his departure for
the West he was not we'll acquainted
with the facts in the case and the call
of Officer Wyatt was very opportune.
Mr. Richardson being extremely ankle $
to acauaint himself with all Of the ell
dence
The officer and the Commemorative S
Attorney were closeted for an hour or
more, during which time Policeman Wy
att revealed to Mr.. Richardson every de-
tail of the different cases, reviewing all
of the evidence he has collected since the
first arrest was made some weeks ago.
Much time was consumed in talking
about the different lots of paraphernalia
which has been captured by the police
man, and finally Mr.. Richardson jour
neyed to the basement OF the City Hall
and inspected much of the stuff that has
been stored there pending the trial OF
the cases.
It was learned on the best of authority
after the conference between Mr. Wyatt
and Mr.. Richardson that the latter ex-
pressed himself as well pleased with the
evidence the former has secured. and is
sure Of convicting every one OF the six
alleged gamblers who have been arrested.

Br Associated Press.)

CHICAGO. ILL, September 6.-Indict-
nnents were returned to-day against ioAr
men implicated in the Masonic Temple
Association tax finding scandal which
has taken UP the time Of q special grand
fury all week. and which county officials
believe will result in unearthing a con-
srdracy TO nulct the county out of hun
nreds of thousands of dollars of taxes.
The men against whom tiue bills were
returned are Luke Wheeler. charged with
forgery and conspiracy to defraud; Cap
tein Bdward Williams. manager OF the
Masonic Temple, charged with utte1inS
q forged instrument and with conspiracy;
1ames b. Foy, conspiracy to defraud;
John L. Hay. Jr.. conspiracy TO defraud
the county.
According to the testimony given before
tne grand jury. 1t IS supposed that Wheel
or was the leader in the alleged conspir-
acy. Some time ago it was discovered
tha, an entry Of paid" had been forged
opposite an item of nearly $4,000 on the
tax warrant book Of the county treas
urcr. Michael G. Walsh gave testimony
before the grand Jury to the effect that
the Temple Association wished to issue
J hundred thousand dollars worth of new
bonds to improve its financial condition.
but that because the building had been
BOLD once before FOR taxes the trust COM
renies would not float the bonds unless
the property was free from liens. 1t was
alleged that bribes We're offered to CO.
employees to make the forged entry. and
that Luke Wheeler was the go-between.
1se.r-;-
Williams was arrested last Saturday, and
gave bonds for 5000 for his appearance.
The grand jury. in connection with the
Masonic Temple case, has investigated a
number of alleged forged notes put out
by wheeler, purporting to come from in
Fucntial business firms of this city. Testi-
.nony before the investigating body was
to the effect that Wheeler had said he
received the notes for taking care" of
property interests before the Stale Board
Of Equalization when that body made tax
assessments.
