At Cosala, Sinaloa, Demetrio Ce- ballos and Jacinto Villegas were at the wake of Pedro Lopez, who had sue cumbed to alcoholic congestion and who had been a friend of the former. After exhausting their supply of liquor Villegas saw upon the table bottle of phenic acid. and taking it for wine dring a glass and gave another to Ce- ballos. The two men died the follow ing morning, all efforts made to save them proving fruitless.

RICHES GO FOR CANDY.
American People Spend s1o0, ,oo0, 900
 for Confections Each Year.

Candy and confectionery to the amount of s10O, 900, 900 are sold in the American home market every year and to this total of manufacture New York contributes s20,000, 900, or one. fifth. Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Illinois are the three other states which contribute largely to the total, which is constantly increasing, for three reasons:
 These are the lower prices of sugar and syrup, the superior excellence of American manufacture which has made this country independent of for eign imports in this line. and the na- tional taste for sugar and for all arti- cles of manufacture into which sugar enters as the chief ingredient.
 The whole foreign importation of confectionery to this country. which was formerly a considerable trade was less than $75,000 last year, and the home consumption has increased correspondingly.
 It is a well-known. fact that sugar in the form of candy or sweets is q substitute for alcohol. Most all ab- stainers from the use of alcohol in any form are candy eaters, vegetari ans almost universally are as well
Bisbee daily review., 1903-07-26

The man who ceases to drink develops an uncommon fondness for candy.
 The candy eater who develops a partiality for wine or spirits. or even beer, which contains much saccharine matter. is seen to dimini-h his pur- chases of candy. It is in temperance localities that the largest amount of candy is eaten, and the largest patrons of candy stores everywhere are, of course. women-and especially young women and children.
 The candy-making interest of the United States, now centering in and about New York. where there are nearly 300 candy-making establish ments, shows steady and constant in crease. and it is a noticeable fact tha. in localities in which foreign-born res idents are numerous there is less candy eaten than in those neighbor- hoods which are inhabited by those of American nativity.
 As candy eaters and water drinkers Americans stand first.

EVANSVILLE RIOT.
EUGENE V. DEBS SAYS THE RE- pusL,cAHs ARE RESPONSIBLE.
By Dragging the Negro Into Politics and Filling Him With importance Trouble Is Created.

Terra Hautte, Ind, July 25.-Eugene V Debbs denies that the socialists in- sttzated the Evansville race riots, as charged by Captain A w. Dudley ol company B, Indiana national guard Debbs said today:
 "Instead of the socialists. the rotten and yote-buying political party to which Dudley belongs is responsible for these crimes. In the late munl- eipal election at Evansville hundreds of negroes were imported from Ken tucky to help elect the present repuo- ucan mayor of that city.
 ~The negro whose murder of the po- lieeman precipitated the conflict was one of these. He was a repubncan, the policeman he murdered was re- nublican and the city officers for whom he acted as political plugger were also republicans.
 "After the election the negro felt that AS one of the main props of the admin istration he could strut and sWagger at will. This was the starting point oi the nresent trouble, which since then has been brewing and required only a spark to set it on.
 "The whole trouble is the culmina- ton of the negro as a factor in politics and. as is notoriously true, corrupt- ing factor. since he finds ready sale for his votes in the political market of Evansville.
 "The socialists never purchased d negro vote nor imported negro voter to debauch the politics and incite race war in Evansville. Will Dudley say inc same for the party to which he be- longs?"

 Associated with MT. Fitzsimmons is Harry Jennings. well known to al- most every person in Bsbee, and they conduct the Pony saloon, where are sold, the finest of lquors, wines and cigars, and where the traveller may stop and regale himself with a glass of cool refreshing beer. Their place is located in Lowell. directly on the main road. and the proprietors have it in contemplation to change the name of their place to The Travel ler's Rest" most appropriate name for it as it is just about half way down the canyon and pleasant place to stop and rest a few minutes.

Under Three Presidents.
-

tiIuS cNtu MChluley was ueCeiNeO-ne
 did not know the strength of the na
 tjonal irrigation sentiment, nor did he
 appreciate how nearly ripe was the
 new issue.
 Roosevelt, the Champion of Irrigation 1 Following Mckinley by only two
 years, Theodore Roosevelt beheld a
 wave of public sentiment in behalf of
 national irrigation. True, he had
 done much to create this wave, both
 before and after his accession to the
 presidency. But no one man, even fl
 he be the first in all the land, makes American public opinion.
 In the two short years intervening
 between the visits of Mckinley and Roosevelt, the irrigation idea took
 root and spread as perhaps no other social and economic proposition ever
 did in this country in the same space of time. The president and his trav' cling companions looked out and be- held the desert, as the earlier presi- dents and their friends had done. But they saw not the desert alone-they had the imagination and the gift of prophecy to see the streams harnessed across the soil; to see the brown waste give place to field, orchard and garden; to see cactus, sagebrush and greasewood fab back to make room for red-roofed, yine-covered cottages. And in their ears were the murmur of hn nf happy children.
 Future Swings Round the Circle.
 What President Roosevelt and his companions beheld in imagination, the next president who tours the arid re- zion will know by the evidence of his senses. For the American people have decreed that the thing shall be done. We've got the men, we've got the ships, and we've got the money, too"
 In other words, we have discovered Arid America, and have decided to annex it to the United States, in the full economic sense of the term. The thing that Harrison looked at, yet saw not; that Mckinley beheld dimly and thought afar of; that thing Roose- welt sees face to face and already growing under his hand. And it has all come about with such marvellous rapidity that even those who have prayed and labored for it sometimes rub their eyes and ask each other if it be really true.
 But if we are to see the full fruition of our hopes, nothing is more certain than that the land to be irrigated by the government must be saved for the Our old land laws now in force make 1 1t too easy for the ubiquitous specula- i tor to step in just ahead of the genuine ] or for the cattle baron t0 l increase his grazing area, thus peo- 1 bling the west with cattle instead of l people.

Washington. ID. C., July zz.
 Three presidents of the United States have toured the arid regions of the west in the past twelve years. The view which they entertained of irriga- ton, as disclosed in their speeches, furnishes a most interesting gauge by which to measure the worth of that cause.
 Benjamin Harrison traversed the west twelve years ago, in 1881. The date of his trip was coincident with the earliest national organization look ing to a development of widespread public sentiment in aid of irrigation. At that time nobody seriously dreamed of a system of public works, and cer. tainly not of public works to be built by the nation.
 President Harrison marveled at the difference between the desert and the garden wherever he beheld the results of irrigation. He paid many graceful compliments to the pioneers who had overcome natural difficulties and made the streams fiow~o upon the land. But there was nothing. either in his speeches or his conversation, to show that he had any appreciation of the fact that he was in the presence of one of the tremendous national issues of the future.
 On the contrary, he held to the east ern view that irrigation is poor makeshift for rain, and he was plainly relieved when he opened his eyes one morning to find himself back in the rainfull region. This was at Hastings. Nebraska There he made speech from the rear end of the train, and congratulated his hearers on living il 8 place where God furnishes the rain" The people applauded enthu- siastically. At that time the name of irrigation had no power to evoke popu- lar response anywhere.
 Mckinley and the West.
 It was ten years later when William Mckinley made much the same trip that President Harrison had taken in 1891 During the intervening decade public sentiment had undergone change concerning irrigation. Time had shown that the reclamation of arid lands, and the making of homes upon them, is a work which does not lend itself to speculative methods. like min ! ing and town-booming. It is sober i industrial process, which pays enor- mously in the way Of social and eco homie gains, but does not return gilt 1 tering profits to the absentee investor Irrigation is for the irrigator. not for the boomer, the promoter and the speculator.
 William Mckinley looked upon the arid region with a vision that was de- nied to his predecessor. He was able to see that irrigation possesses certain advantages over dependence on rain falls, and that the day would come when it would present a practical issue of stupendous moment. He said as much in his speeches, and went further in private conversation. But he also added that 1t was question for the future, which would be dealt with afser he had passed from the stage of action Few men have had so rare a faculty as Mckinley for uu- derstanding the real condition of pub lie opinion and keeping abreast of it. rather than so far in advance that their utterances could have only academc value. And yet this
