Meeting of wooisrowers.

The regular annual meeting of the Arizona woolgrowers' Association was held in the courthouse on Thursday, July 10. It was the best attended meet. ing since the organization of the asso- citation.

About all the woolgrowers of Coconino county were present.
 The old officers of the association were reelected, and routine business of the association was transacted. The business of woolgrow,ng ssaid by vari- ous members of the ASS ciaiion to be in a fairly prosperous condition, but rain on the ranges is badly needed. The prolonged drought has made water scarce all over the terri'ory.

Slight injuries often disable man and cause several days loss of time, and when blood poison develops some- times result in the loss of hand or limb. Chamberlain's Pain Balm is an autiseptic liniment. When applied to cuts, bruises and burns it causes them to heal quickly and without maturation, and prevents any danger of blood poison.

HUMORS OF THE WAR.
0orgsOasly Apparcled Bri<- ish O0csr.

If you cannot bring any new ideas to South Africa you can at least bring new clothes. No one will object to this, not even the Beers. Clothes. just at the present moment. are of more use to them than British ideas. The staff officer had three months leave, and he went home rejoicing. It was the same stan officer who had first used locomo- tives as projectiles in war. As he was a man of original ideas, they made much of him at home. So he bought new kit, and. still rejoicing. returned to South Africa. It was a good kit, from Zeiss glasses to pocket filter--the best that money could buy. But the pride of the kit was pair of chocolate-col- ored chamois brooches. When the staff officer arrived at Pretoria he put on these brooches, and they at once made him column commander, nar- rates the London Pail Mall Gazette.
 And the staff officer went to his col umn and found it in front of hill. on which were Boers. And the staff officer said: Where are the enemy" And they said: "On that hill" "Absurd!" said the staff officer. "You cannot know. Twill go and reconnoiter!" So he mounted his horse and rode out to the hill.
 And when the Boers on the top of the hill saw him coming they said: Do not shoot him. Don't you see he is one of the five-shilling yeomanry. He has new clothes on!"
 So the staff officer had to hold up his hands and it showed of his new kit to advantage. So much 90 that the com mandant coveted his tunic his stock. his glasses, his chocolate bre eches and all that he had. And, what is more, he took them even unto the sa'mon-cov- cred uDderdrawers from beneath the hreeches; and. if the staff officers own pom-pom had not dropped one shell on the side of the hill, they would have taken the staff officers cholera belt as we'll. As it was he re- turned to his column with only his banyan and his cholera be-: and they said: "Did we not tell you hat there were Boers that hill?" Ard the staff officer suggested that it was the for tune of war. and borrowed coat warm, British, and pair of khaki over ails from the supply officer.
 And in the evening there came an envoy from the Boer camp with white flag, and he was wearing the staff of- ficer's chocolate brooches. Thel staff officer could not grant him an inter- view, for he had caught a convenient chill on the kopje Gas matter of fact he had seen his brooches in the dis tance. and, though the Boers wore them bravely. the nature of the fit hurt the staff officers feelings); SO the doc tor gave the Boer an audience.
 "You captured our general this morning; why were you such fools as to let him go?" said the doctor.
 Don't know that we would be fools to let any British general yo!" an swered the Boer. "But we did not cap ture a general all the same!"
 "How do you know?" asked the doc tor.
 "Well. we can generally tell. A yeo- man always wears new clothes. puts his head in the siliiest moose. and then uses bad language. You send us a lot more generals like that man this morn- ing. We won't keep them-no fear; we'll only take what's worth having about them. You can keep the rest-- q

Dubois Makes Bad Break.

Senator Dubois in his speech
here last Monday evening made
some statements that we can not
suffer to go unchallenged. One of
these was the insinuation that
President Roosevelt feigned illness
in order to have an excuse to end
his speaking tour, having weakened
in his fight to control the trusts,
and another the statement that the
President made scant illusions to
the trust question, after his con-
ference with Senator Hanna and
other Republican leaders on his
return from New England,
during his western tour. Senator
Dubois is entirely mistaken, by
authentic record, as to the latter,
and it will require more than the
unsupported statement of even a
United States senator to make any
one believe that a man of Roose-
velt's manly qualities would be
guilty Of the former.
AS a matter of fact Mr.. Roose-
welt made his strongest speech for
control of the trusts at Cincinnati,
on his western tri p and devoted his
whole speech to the trust question,
and handled it fearlessly and with
out the slightest evidence Of duress
from any source. For the truth
fullness of this assertion refer back
to any daily paper of Sept. 81, con-
tanning associated press dispatches.
AS to the insinuation that Teddy
Roosevelt is craven, that he
feigned illness and perpetrated a
hoax upon the American people,
because he was too cowardly to
stand up for his honest convictions
that is not fit to be repeated per-
haps even to deny. Senator Dubois
must have given expression to such
an insinuation without thought.

At Their Old Tricks.

The Fusionists in this county are
at their old tricks and will try to
win another campaign by attempt
ing to hoodwink the voter. J. C.
White, candidate for state senator,
illustrated this last Monday night
when he asserted that the Fusion
lists had conducted the affairs of
the county so economically that
they were able to reduce the rate of
taxation nearly 81 on the 800 of
valuation
Now, let's look into that matter.
In 1896, the last year of Republic
can rule, the assessed valuation of
Kootenai county was $2,163, 1864,
and the rate was So. 40 on the humid
red, producing a revenue of $73, 5S2.-
rs.
In 1902 the assessed valuation is
approximately $4,1OO,OOO.OO, and
the rate has been fixed at 1910,
which will produce a revenue of
$40, 10000.
1t will thus be seen that the
Fusionists are drawing from the
people over $37 900 more tax money,
or more than so per cent more, BIZ
direct taxation, than the Republic
cans did.
And another thing let the new
settlers in Kootenai County not
overlook-the old timers will not
need reminding, because their tax
receipts will tell the story. Shortly

passed to tax property at its cash

$1,000 before this law passed, and

Both the Republican and Demo-
cratic candidates for Justice of the
Supreme Court reside at Grange-
vile. The following from the
Democratic newspaper published
at Grangeville becomes of interest
at this time:
James F. Ailshie, the Republican

responsibility upon him when it
rendered him the nomination to
that very important State office.
and the party will find that it is
not a case of misplaced confidence
for Mr., Ailshie will display the
same energy and good judgement
in his political campaign that has
made him successful in his pro-
fessional and which will still
characterize his official career
should he be the successful aspiT-
ant in November. -Grangeville
