offered bills looking to the better listing of
personal property, and Mr.. Carter of Scott
offered general fence law for the State,
making four poles or wires lawful fence.
Mr.. Cardwell presented bill appropri-
ating 100000 additional for the proposed
repairs at the Capitol, and there WAS an
other by Mr.. Wise to authorize counties
to erect Confederate monuments.
All these were referred, along with reso-
lutions providing for new flag on the
Capitol, and memorialzing Congress to
submit an amendment to the United States
constitution providing for the popular
election of United States Senators.

KEEPING PROMISES
Phoenix Appreciates Always When
 Promises Are Kept.

Every time you read about Deans Kidney Pills you are told they cure ev- cry form of kidney ill. from backache to urinary disorders. How are our promises kept? Ask any citizen who has tried the treatment. Ask the man who makes the following statement
 H. T. Diehl. miner, of 15S F. Alameda St, Tucson. Ariz.. says: My eNpeIi ence with Deans Kidney Pills proved that they are everything claimed for them In the month of February, 1902, I first felt slight pain across the small of my back directly over the kid neys, probably caused by a cold settl- ing in those organs. It was not seri- ous vet it struck me if neglected it might lead to future trouble and read ing one night in q Tucson paper about Doan's Kidney Pills my daughter went to Martins drug store for box took them as directed and vixen I had com pleted the treatment the pain in my back disappeared. l was so surprised at the prompt and efficient relief given by Doans Kidney Pills that I recom- mended them to a number of my ac- quaintances and even went so far as to mail a box to q friend of mine living in Gro Blanco who had kidney trouble"
 Just such emphatic endorsement can be had right here in Phoenix. Drop into the Brisley Drug Co.'s drug store and ask what their customers report.

that book has been published in which former newspaper correspon- dent in the Philippines criticises Gov ernor Taft and his policy.
 Some two months thereafter, General Leonard Wood is appointed to the command of the military department of Mindanao.
 It is generally assumed that this minor assignment is the forerunner of Woods appointment to be governor of the Philippines to succeed Taft
 After General Wood has sailed, the New York Sun. one of the ablest and most influential newspapers in the world, paper which is extremely close to Governor Taft and not very friendly to the national administration, bitterly charges that there is a conspiracy to displace Taft and put Wood in his place. It is implied that in this con- spiracy are General Wood, Secretary Root and President Roosevelt, and that the Bellairs book is the opening gun in the fight of the military administration forces against Taft. It is obvious that if Governor Taft permits such great influences as the Sun to attack the en- tire military department of the gov ernment and, by inference, the presl- dent of the United States as well. the controversy will not be one-sided. Tine outcome and it's bearing on politics cannot as yet be foreseen. But if it be- comes necessary for the president to choose between Governor Taft and his closest personal friend, Leonard Wood, nobody will doubt what that choice will be. In our opinion our esteemed con- temporary, the Sun, makes a great mistake in opening this campaign against General Wood and the admin istration. generally. There is yet to be offered the first evidence that any off, cial of the government or any officer of the army has contemplated the slightest injustice to Governor Taft. It would have been much wiser to wait until there was real occasion for de- lending the governor
 Thus the matter has already taken on such broad aspects that the fortunes of Captain Bellairs become very imma- terial. But if that gentleman has been wronged by Governor Taft's powerful friends the public will soon know it, and in that case nobody will suffer ex- cept the authors of the remarka bic charges against him.

INDICTED FOR PERJURY
The Grand Jury Finds Two Bills
 Against Milton Brawley.

The business of the April term oi district court was begun in earnest yesterday. The day was taken up all most entirely with the business of the United States court It was brought out when the impaneling of the grand jury was begun that the last legislature had probably left the law regarding its constitution in a bad shape. Tne law provides that it shall consist of not more than twenty-one members ani not less than sixteen. That is plain enough, but then it goes on to say that all the members of the venire who shah appear shall be impaneled. One of the persons held to the grand jury is Mil ton Brawley, charged with perjury in his testimony in the case of the gov ernment against w. D. Hammond, tried at the last term of court. One of the witnesses for the government in that case was L. l.. Plank, who is also |, member of the venire. On account of his connection with the Hammond case, George P. Bullard, the attorney for Brawley. objected to his sitting in that case on the grand jury. The op- jection was sustained, and MT. Plank
 
 consideration of that case.
 Thus a question is left as to whether the panel was full and whether the grand jury was legal one. for though there were more than sixteen members, all the members of the venire appear ing were not impaneled.
 The members of the grand jury are: E. J. Bennitt, foreman; R. H. Schel, J. G. Peterson. E. A. Murphy. J. n. Marian, George H. N. Luhrs, w. l.. George, C. D. Doris, George McFaIl. l.. E. Wise, Lincoln Fowler, Frank | Moss, w. c. Foster, l.. L. Plank, James Bark, J. l.. Waring, c. M. Stewart, J. D. Monihon and Dave Goldberg. | Brawley charged with perjury, Sam. uel Randall with selling liquor to an | Indian under the care of an Indian agent, and Ramon Trujillo charged | with a violation of the Edmunds act were brought before the court, and the grand jury proceeded to the considera- | tion of the charges in the Brawley | case. The case of Louis Hernandez, l charged with violation of the Ed munds act, was called but the defer- | dant failed to appear.
 
 for the term: Juan B. Aguiles charged with selling liquor to an Indian, Juan Arvizo with making a false entry at the custom house, and s. Brady with a violation of the Edmunds law. The ! cases against Juan Villa and Josefl Flores for a violation of the Edmunds | law was dismissed, the parties having since been married. The case against Rosalie Cory was also dismissed. She is the woman who was arrested with w. D. Hammond.
 l Late in the afternoon the grand jury returned two indictments for perjury | against Brawley. The charge agains, | him is based on his testimony in the | Hammond case in which he differe widely from the stories he had told Assistant United States Campbell prs- viously in the presence of witnesses There was testimony also to show that he had inquired what the penalty would be in the case of variance of his tes- l timony from the information he had given the government officers.
