INCORPORATION FEES.

The Journal Miner feels confident
that there is one man in the TERRITORY
who will be rejoiced to learn that the
passage of the Cowan bill has not en-
tirely killed the incorporation bust
ness IN the territory. That man is
Keane st. Charles, editor of Our
Mineral Wealth of Kingman. In fact
taking Secretary Stoddard's report of
the business done when be was get
ting the fees, and comparing it with
the receipts since the passage of the
Cowan bill, the passage of the latter
measure has increased. rather than di-
minished the volume of business.
Editor Keane from being a rampant
advocate of the Cowan bill suddenly
turned tail to it and became one of
the staunchest opponents of it. and
wanted it amended, just to save the
business to the territory. being afraid
IL ii passed without his amendment.
that the business would go elsewhere.
If we remember correctly Secretary
Stoddard reported that during a wear
and a half, the fees amounted to about
SIS, 200 or about $1,000 per month. The
Cowan bill went into effect on March
Is, and from that date to March 81.
The fees for filing articles of incorpo-
ration were sl023. During the month
of April, Territorial Auditor Nichols
turned into the territorial treasury.
from this source the snug little sum
of 1896. This shows an increase in
the business of over three times what
il was when the fees were pocketed by
one individual, instead of going to
the territory. 1t is sincerely hoped
that these gratifying figures may have
the effect of allaying Mr.. st.
Charles fears on the subject. OF
course no one will doubt from what
Mr.. st. Charles has said that if he had
only known that this would have
been the result. after the individual
efforts of Mr.. Stoddard had been
withdrawn from the business, be
would not have fought the measure as
vigorously as he did. The above fig
ures must be very gratifying to all
tax payers. II shows what mint the
territorial secretary had in the bust
ness of articles of incorporation as

Some of our exchanges seem to in
dictate that there is some doubt about
the officers having the Goddard muir
derers in custody and intimate that
their identification will depend upon
this one or that one identifying them.
There is not single doubt as to their
being the real murderers. They have
been emphatically and positively
identified by the man most capable
of doing so. Their movements have
been followed from the time of the
murder to the time of their arrest.
Any further Identification would be
simply cumulative. Identification
By the parties in the room at the
time of the murder would not be as
positive as from the man who con-
versed with them for several hours.
When two men come with drawn re-
volvers into a room occupied by a
number of people, the latter are not
likely to study their complexion very
closely or to note the color of their
eyes. The countryman who talked
with them, had ample opportunity to
note their peculisrities. He says pos
itively they are the men.

ARIzONA'S HONORED GUEST.

President Roosevelt yesterday spoke
to from twelve to fifteen hundred cit
liens of Arizona, at the Grand Can
yon, in an address lasting just twenty
five minutes. During the progress of
his speech he was frequently inter
rupted with prolonged and enthusiast
tic applause showing beyond doubt
that his auditors were jim sympathy
with the sentiment of his address.
The president is not a magnetic
speaker and deals in but few flights of
oratory. but uses plain, forcible, and
manly language. Tells what he has
to say in language which every one
can understand and the meaning of
which cannot be- mistaken.
While he is not what can be termed
as an eloquent speaker, he is pleas
ing in his manner of delivery and
holds his audience by the good com
mon sense of what he says rather
than by any nicely rounded high
sounding phrases
In bis Grand Canyon address he
remarked the pleasure it afforded him
to address an Arizona audience ON
account of its being the place from
which the first battalion of the regi-
ment be had the honor to command
in the Cuban war was enlisted. He paid
a high tribute to Governor Brodie.
saying that on first meeting him as
major of the regiment he remarked
to himself, there is a man that will do
to tie to, ''and the longer and more in
timately that he has known him the
stronger has become his convictions
of the correctness of his first impress
sion.
He dwelt at considerable length on
the Importance of irrigation to the
territory speaking of the proposed
revervoir which the government has
planned to furnish water storage.
Many other subjects in which Arizona
is interested also received favorable
consideration.
At the conclusion of his address he
presented the dipomas to the gradual
ing class of the flagstaff normal
school, after which all present were
given an opportunity to shake hands
with him.
A party of four or five, including
himself, went out for another horse
back ride visiting the various points
of interest along the rim of the can
yon, from which they did not return
until after five O'Clock.
At the close of his address he an
nounced that he would receive all
members present of his former regi-
ment at his car at D 30. The ride
along the canyon rim proved so in
teresting that in order to return in
time for the above engagement ride
of about twelve miles had to be made
in little over an hour While the
others of the party returned nearly
exhausted the president placed his
hand on the neck of his horse and
sprang lightly to the ground, saying
that he had had no day on his entire
trip which he had enjoyed more than
this.
Just before the train pulled out in
the evening Flagstaff's gift of $3.50
Indian blanket was presented to him.

Session of Court.

Judge Sloan held short session of
the district court this morning The
most important business transacted
was the passing of the death sentence
on Simon Alderete for the murder of
sign painter about eighteen months
ago. Alderete was tried and convict
ed at the June term of the court in
1902 and sentenced to be hanged, but
his case was appealed to the supreme
court. The latter tribunal passed on
the case during the January term and
confirmed the decision of the district
court, remanding the case back for
re-sentence. The sentence was simply
a formality and the date fixed for the
execution was Friday June 10 be-
tween the hours of 10 O'Clock a. m.
and 2 p. m.
A report of the receiver of the bank
rupt estate of Barthel & Stocks was
also submitted and an application
made for an order to sell all of the ac-
counts held by the receiver was made
and granted, the sale to be made
after five days notice. On the COM
pletion of this sale the estate can be
closed up and distribution made.

A telegram from Ell Paso says that
price fighting and gambling in Juarez
and in the state of chihuahua will be
a thing of the past after Governor
Luis Terrazas assumes the reins of
state. This is the edict said to have
been issued by the powers that be.
Information from a most indisputable
source says that Governor Terrazas
will not allow gambling in any form
to be carried on in the state of Chi
huahua, while he is governor. The
reasons for this action on his part are
said to be based upon his bitter hat
red Of gambling in all its forms. He
is known to be a most strenuous OPP
ponent to all games of chance. He
will however permit the usual Sunday
bull fights to be pulled of which will

was former Yayapai girl, before be-
coming Mrs. Northam:
Mrs. Robert j. Northam, wife of
Bob NOrtbam, is believed to have
winged" a nervy burglar at the
Northam residence this afternoon,
who was in the act of making off with
a bag of coin that had been handed to
Mrs. Northam few moments before.
Mrs. Northam no sooner discovered
the sack missing than she caught
sight of the fleeing burglar with the
bag of coin in his hand. She picked
up loaded Colts revolver in the
room and fired. The robber dropped
the bag with groan and threw his
hand to his shoulder, which leads to
the belief that he was hit.
