Political independence does not mean
an abandonment of the republican
party. 1t means the rejection of the
old "hide-bound" notion that any party
owns the Negro, willy or nilly. 1t
means that the Negro should vote ac-
cording to issues, his environments
and his conception of public duty-not
through narrow. preiudices.

 The other story told by MT. Norton he says came to him by mail from Frank Baxter at Agua Caliente, where Jake Miller. Ed Ruppert, Hi Eldred and Bob Fromm are taking baths for relief from lung trouble. MT. Baxter has a few chickens on his ranch near by and since the Phoenix invalids ar rived he hasn't been able to get an egg for his own table. They were not content with stealing the fresh eggs, but one day Jake Miller. who is doing the cooking. stole a setting of eggs from an old hen that had been at work about twenty days in an honest effort to raise a family. He was afraid to break the shells to scramble or fry them. so he boiled them. He knew that boiled chicken was almost as good as boiled eggs, so he felt on the safe side. whatever stage of incubation had been reached
 When the boys sat down to their next meal Hi Eldred was the first to help himself to an egg. He broke the shell and out rolled q chicken that was certainly not old or tough. He was in the act of passing it over to Ed Ruppert. when Jake drew down on him with his six shooter ami quietly but firmly said, You'll eat that your self if you ever get out of here alive and Ed will eat another one.

The rivalry between John Nor ton, Joe Monihan. Hi Eldred, Ed Ruppert. Jake Miller and a few other maverick Elks and Eagles for the honor of telling the hardest tales about each other. is now generally understood and it is also well established that there isn't q slow one in the race. MT. Norton happened in town yesterday and gave currency to a couple of incidents that he swears are strictly true. however much other stories told about his enemies may haze been exaggerated.
 MT. Norton said he was driving along the road by Ole Monihans ranch one day last week and saw Joe out in q pasture belaboring q little dwarfc l roan steer with q four-year-o mes quite club. He stopped his own team and watched the proceeding until he thought he ought to interfere in the interest of humanity. NIr. Monihan would club the beast until he was out of breath and then climb up on the fence while the steer arched his neck. sWelled out his sides in defiance and charged on his master. Then the op- eration would be repeated.
 As MT. Norton approached he said, What ye doin' Joe?"

HENRY c. ROGERS DEAD
In the Fullness of Health Paralytic
 Stroke Fell Upon Him.

Henry C. Rogers of Lehi. as well known as any mansin the county and as greatly loved and respected as any man that ever lived in Arizona, died at 10 o'clock yesterday morning of q storke of paralysis. He had been in good health the day before and had been about town. The stroke fell on him at o'clock at night. The funeral will take place at o'clock this after noon at the tabernacle at Mesa

He partici- pated in all the priVations of the first enierants to Utah and witnessed the and elsewhere along their journey. He stood high in the church and was re- spected in civil life. He held many po- sitions of trust in Utah and at one time was a sheriff Of one of the southern counties of the territory.
 He was one of the pioneers of the Mesa country and did as much as any other man toward it's upbuilding. He has been foremost in every enterprise in the community in which he lived and he was one of the most energetic workers in the church.
 He was once honored by an election to the territorial legislature.

THE WAR TAX
 REPEAL BILL
Probable that It Will Go Before the
 Senate Without Amendment.

Washington. March S.-The sub committee on finance was in session today. considering the war revenue bill. It has been decided to report the bin, practically as il came from the house with some little change in phraseology. When the bill was under consideration in the full committee there was some talk about reaching an understanding between the two parties that 1o amendments should be made to the bill in conference or in the senate.
 There was general aCquiescence n the proposition. although MT Piatt of Connecticut said that there might he d disposition to offer a Cuban recipro- city amendment.
 Senator Burrows and others said that if this were done the whole subject of tariff revision might be opened. and no one could tell where it would end. While no agreement has been made. there seems to be q gnral impression that no amendments will be made to the war revenue repeal measure, al- though some may be offered in the senate.

LASHED WITH
LARGE STRAP
Till Blood Flowed Down His
Legs.

Washington c. H., o., Feb. 20
Coroner Boggs closed an inquest in the
Ralph Thompson murder case and the
testimony revealed the most revolving
and atrocious inhumanity on the part
of Henry Cross, the boys foster-father.
1t was shown that Cross and his wife
got the Thompson boy, who was ten
years old, at the Fayette County Chill
dren's Home, and that Cross had beat
en- the boy with wagon spoke, lashed
him with large strap until blood
streamed down his legs. made him
sleep for three weeks during zero
weather in an upholstered room, with
no bed, on a piece of old carpet ON the
floor; made him wear ticking clothes
and carry large buckets of water,
while the bones of his toes, from
which flesh had dropped, rubbed
against his old shoes. He many times
told the boy that he would kill him

SCHOOL BOARD
Also, Can Appoint Some
Committees.

The City Council is no longer the
only municipal organization which
poses as an exponent of the pleasing
practice of having committees APP
pointed for various purposes. The
School Board, at the meeting last
night, trespassed on the ground hith-
erto thoroughly covered by Council in
the matter Of committees. A commit
tee. consisting of Messrs. Slabaugh,
Davis and White, was appointed to
see the City Commissioners about the
matter of a new street or alley.
The passage way wanted will be
between Summit ST. and Broadway,
for the purpose of shortening the dis
tance to school of such pupils of the
Bowen building as live east of the
school. 1t seems that such pupils are
at present obliged to go either to Mar
ket St. on the south, or to Furnace
st on the north. in order to get from
Summit st. to Broadway. This extra
distance has been the cause of some
tardiness, and great many muddy
feet. The matter of opening up a
street TO shorten this distance has
been brought up by the Board be-
fore, but it was never acted upon
decisively until last night, when the
committee was appointed.
