But Private Gibbs Says He
Never Saw Water Cure
Given.

Washington, May 1o.--Private William
]. Gibbs, Ninth infantry, continued his
testimony before the Philippines commits
sion. He said he never had seen the water
cure administered, but heard the groans
of victims. He heard Of one death as a
result. Dirty water and salt water was
used for the cure, which generally was ad-
ministered by scouts. s S5ss5rs
Mr.. Gibbs said that the Filipino women
were virtuous. Filipino prisoners and the
sick were treated we'll, as were peaceful
natives generally. The orders were to
treat them with kindness.
George ]. Boardman, formerly of the
Twentieth infantry, said he had never
witnessed but one instance of water cure.
He told how the natives would open fire
on the Americans and conceal their guns
when the soldiers approached.

been killed or injured in other parts OF
Martinique.

SELL PROSPECTS REASONABLY.

Prospectors, mine-owners, the
small operator who needs money
for the development vi his proper
ty, often is the most potent inhu-
ence against the influx of capital
into a mining district, says the
Blue Mountain American. Not
malicously is the work done, per-
haps not consciously. Hope is the
obstucting element, that same hope
followed year after year across
wretched wastes and into dangers
and privations no other allure
ments would ever find victims for.
1t is the hope that sings by lone
ly mountain camp fire, paints the
bright images ahead of dishearten-
ing difficulties, in short, the hope
that makes the miner, and we hate
to assail it.
Several instances have come to
light within the past three weeks
illustrating the almost prohibitive
price at which some claims are
held. They might have been pur-
chased if a more reasonable price
had been named. 1t seemed TO
the eastern investor that the claim
owner demanded all, leaving no
margin of profit for development,
no reward for the chance of OPEN
ing mine. They did not buy.
They went away saying that would
find a district where q prospect
could be bought for less than q
mine figure. A result is thou
sands of idle prospects, more Of
which should be developed.

in representative specimens for
such an exhibit.

TROUBLE BREEDING

The letter publishedin last weeks
Prospect, signed by George Ruff
ner, is creating no small amount
of talk and ill-feeling, and some
thing serious is very apt to happen
soon.
Ruffner claims that Sheriff J. L..
Munds ''sold" out the democratic
party in Yavapai county at the
last election. 1t is intimated that
Munds is now after Ruffner for
certain shady transactions several
years ago and claims he will be
able to send him to the peneten-
tiary. 1t might be we'll to place
a number of the Yavapai county
democrats somewhere out Of the
way.
AS the facts now being made
public through the press were
talked of openly many months
since, at the time of their occurrence
it looks as if the Prospect was a
little dilatory in re-opening old
sores to the tired sight of a people
disgusted with rotten politics.
The spoils of the sheriff's office
have been too large and the Kill
kenny cats are fighting again,
with a very fair prospect Of de-
stroying each other.

The Washington times., 1902-10-04
WILL NOT HESITATE LONG.

1t is not at all certain, however, that
this is the Presidents view of the case.
President Roosevelt believes that the
people of the country will back him up
in his attempt to force the owners of
the mines to operate them, and he pro-
fesses not to be afraid of any chances
of political defeat that he may take
in championing the cause of the people.
1t is thought that the President will
not be long in making up his mind 20
take some definite action. After having
learned the sentiment of the people with
relation to the proceedings 1T the White
House yesterday,he is expected to make
some move in the direction of carrying
out his implied promise to the people
to see to it that the mining of coil
shall be resumed, and the famine endc
before the approach of cold weather. All
Washington is waiting with bated
breath TO see what the President will
do next, and undoubtedly the whole
country is in the same state of painful
suspense In the opinion Of those who
know the President best, the people Will
not have long to wait 1t is possible
that he may, after reflection, decide
TO do nothing This is the opinion of
some of the wisest heads in his
Cabinet.

coal to be mined untI1 their demand is
complied with.
In spite of this defiance. however. il
cannot be, believed by sane and conser-
vatiye men in Washington that the per-
sons who yesterday denied the righ'
or privilege of the President to inter
fere in the public interest will continue
the strike. On the contrary, the con
viction is deepseated and widespread
here that they are only bluffing and that
within a few weeks-maybe few days
they will yield and thus avert more
serious form OF trouble than is now an
noying them.
In fact, ii is suspected in some well
informed circles that there is behlnd
most of the men. particularly the rail
road managers called into conference
by the President yesterday, hidden intiu-
ences that they cannot ignore and that
control their astonishing conduct. What
these supposed influences are or who di-
rects them are questions which probably
will be exposed in the developments OF
the neal. future.
