she has made would not impress the
average congressman that they rely on
it to carry their point The assertion
that the country is cut off from the
territory by an impossible chasm is a
pure fabrication. There are dozens of
places where crossings have been es.

Utah side the crossing of the Virgin

and the 'eXtras" that the board ha
donated to him from the county fund,
is without number. Ever since tb,
county's organization the recorder
carried on the business of the office
without an assistant, but since Feeney',
election the greater part of the work
of the office has been done by an "as
sistant". Up to the first of April, 1901
there had been paid by the county for
that assistant" the SUN of 2,yOOS, and
that was for but short period OF
Feeney's incum bency. st. Charles had
stood with the gang in the preceding
elections and to him it was neces sary
to dole out large wads of pie in the
shape of phat takes of printing. Last
year he agreed to do the printing for
the sum of 999s, which was bid for by
the MINER for less than 3O0s, but which
bid was refused. During the year st.
Charles did less than 2OOS of printing
and the balance represents clear pro-
tit. Besides this printing was sent out
of the county and paid for as "extra,'.
No printing that would entail work
was given to st. Charles and in every
way he was "protected" The record
will prove that this assertion is true.
Now, st. Charles says that If the print
ing exceeds l500S he will donate the
overplus to the county. OF course,
the printing won't amount to l500s,
because of the fact that he will be
again protected, and also because of
the fact that no such amount Of print
ing was ever necessary in one year.
st. Charles knows this much better
than the people, but he will say that
we are giving away trade secrets aud
that when we have gotten the work so
low we can never get it back to the
standard. 1t is fact we'll known to
every business man in Kingman, and
in fact in Mohave county, that the let
ter heads that st. Charles has been
furnishing to the county the past year
are worth, even when printed nicely,
the sum of less than l.50s per thousand
and the envelopes are worth about the
same. When printed by st. Charles
they represent no value whatever, and
to this fact we can have the sworn
statement of every printing house on
the Pacific coast. The work would not
be turned out of the meanest print
shop in the United States, much less
accepted by any business house. We
do not make this statement because
the work was in the hands of this
man, but because, as we say, we can
prove it by any and every print chop
employe or owner in the land. The
letter heads are unreadable and the
envelopes have but blur of ink on
the upper left hand corner, but what
Specification this ink blur has in con-
nection with the officer using them
will ever remain mystery.
The solid five realize that should the
work for the year be turned over to
st. Charles it is an assured fact that
all bills will be estopped from pay
ment and that the whole gang will 90
up against an action that will net them
A direct loss of all their illgotten gains
aud that it will bring to them com
plete turning out of office. The peo.
pie have been skinned of all the outer
,uticle, but they will revolt when an
attempt is made to take the flesh.
