At this place they saw a few men
sitting outside the door, calmly smok-
ing-among these Sam, the liveryman,
a merchant by name of Chapman, and
a homesteader, who was known as
One-eyed Pennyman. Inside the
house, playing cards with Curly, were
four other men. Franklin noticed that
they all were armed. They all ap-
peared from their story, to have just
dropped in to pass little time with
Curly. From time to time others
dropped in, most of them remaining
outside in the moonlight, sitting on
their heels along the porch. talking
but little, and then mentioning any
thing but the one subject which was
uppermost in every ones mind. Yet
though nothing was said, it might well
be seen that this little body of men
were of those who had taken the
stand for law and order, and who were
tory of the town.
1t was battle of the two hotels
and what they represented. Over at
the great barroom of the Cottage
there was at the same time assembled
much larger gathering, composed
chiefly of those transient elements
which at that time really made up the
larger portion of the population of the
place-wide-hatted men, with narrow
boots and broad belts at which swung
heavy, blued revolvers with broad
wooden butts-a wild-looking, wild.
living body of men, savage in some
ways, gentle in others, but for the
most part just, according. to their
creed. All drank whisky, and drank
it regularly. Up to ten o'clock the
whisky had produced no effect.
At ten o'clock big Texan raised
his glass high above his head and
smashed it upon the bar.

he. What kind O. law an order is ii

During one of my visits through
the country districts" said the profess
sor, Il happened to reach small
village where they were to have a
tiag-raising at the schoolhouse. After
the banner had been flung to the
breeze there was an exhibition of
drawings which the pupils had made
and of the work they had done during
the year.
THE teacher recited to them the
Landing of the Pilgrims, and after
she had finished, she requested each
pupil to try and draw from his or her
imagination a picture of Plymouth
Rock.
Most of them went to work at
once, but one little fellow hesitated
and at length raised his hand.
Well, Willie. what is it?' asked
the teacher. ...

A brief silence fell upon the gather
ing, a silence broken only by tinklings
Or shuffiings along the bar. Then, far
OF, over the prairie, there came lit
tie fiat, recurrent sound, or series Of
sounds, as of one patting his fingers
softly together. 1t fell and rose and
grew, coming rapidly nearer, until at
length there could be distinguished

crowd pressed out into the air. 1t
opened and melted slightly. The
crowd at Curly's shanty increased
slightly, silently. Inside, Curly and
his friend still played cards. The
giant prisoner lay asleep, upon the
floor.
The rattle of many hoofs swept up
to the door of the Cottage, where the
FESTIVE, nervous horses were left
standing while the men went in, their
leader, stocky, red-mustached man,
bearing with him the rope which he
had loosened from his saddle. Having
drunk, the leader smote upon the bar
with a heavy hand.
Come along, men," he called out.
"The quicker we hang that id

"Crazy be id! We're goin' to

All the time they were shifting
toward the door AS though by concert
they swung into saddle and swept off
up the street in body. above the
noise of their riding now breaking a
careless laugh, now shrill yell of
sheer joyous excitement. More than a
hundred men drew up in front of the

Oil Was Discovered In Agua Prieta Last
 Saturday
IN REMOVING THE CASING OF AN OLD WELL, WoRkMEN ARE SURPRISED TO FIND THEY HAVE STRUCK
 OIL.
Special to Review.)


 Douglas, April 1S.-Harry Eicks, who had a contract to remove the cas- ing from well in Agua Prieta on lot leased by Gus Paulson Of Douglas, who has saloon on the lot, on Satur. cay made a discovery of oil in the well. Mir. Eicks told the Information al-American this morning that the dis covery of oil in the well at Agua Prieta was bona fde and genuine. He was removing the old casing and when the last piece was drawn out and when about to be lifted away from the hole, ii in some way was allowed 10 drop into the we'll It went down with force sufficient to drive it below the water surface in the hole. In trying to get another hold on this casing it was discovered that an inch pipe which had been used in locating it's position when drawn from the hole was covered with oil. Afterwards tin can was lowered to the water, and when it was drawn up was found mat its contents was more oil than water.
 This discovery of oil has been the subject of much interest in Douglas today and a. number have visited the well at Agua Prieta.
 It is expected that a thorough ex- animation of the new find will be be- gun at once. It is possible with all the good fortunes which have come to Douglas in the past, it is now to be demonstrated that the city has been built over a lake of oil. The in6ica- tons are good for that condition.

OFF WRONG AGAIN.

As usual the arguments of the Miner are of again" Last night it attempt ed to show that MT. Sutter, appointed to fill the position of City Attorney of Bisbee, and Mir. Sutter. appointed to prosecute cases in the justice courts of Bisbee and Douglas, occupied, an analogous position to Judge O'Brien, who was elected to serve the taxJay- CTS of Cochise county as their Pro bate Judge, and subsequently appoint ed to the position of Superintendent of the Territorial Reform School There is not the slightest resemblance in the two cases. One might as well argue that Mir. Sutter should not have but one case on hand at a time on his law docket. This is absurd. In the position of City Attorney Mr. Sutter simply acts as the counsel and advis- CT of the City Council. As assistant District Attorney Mir. Sutter acts for the District Attorney, for the reason hat the latter officer could not phys ically attend to the duties of his of fee scattered as are the cities of the county. Again, Mr Sutter's office as City Attorney of Bisbee and assistant to the District Attorney are both in Bisbee, in the same office, and where Mir. Sutter may be found by those who seek him, either upon the business of the city or county.
 Judge OBrien was elected to serve the taxpayers of this county in the of ice of Probate Judge. They have provided him with an office, where they expect to find their employee when they call there on business Of ,he office. Instead of remaining in Tombstone, where he is legally oblig- ed 10 remain during his term of office, Judge OBrien is appointed 10 the po- sition of experimenting the Reform School at Benson, in an entirely diff ferent city, situated away from Tomb stone, and where he is beyond reach when called upon in just such cases as the Davis case, one of the most fiagrant cases of unnecessary expense and discommoding of the public with in the history oI the Probate office. Judge O'Brien's place is either in the Srobate Judge's office in Tombstone, or in the stone building al Benson, in either one of which the taxpayers are interested pretty heavily, and MT. Slut ter is discommocing no person by hay Ing his office Of City Attorney Assist ant District Attorney and lawyer in the Schmid building in Bisbee, where he may be found when called upon by nose having business with either of Ihese offices.

Sunday evening Hon. Mark Smith returned to. Arizona; from Washing ton. He was in the party in the pri- vate Pullman, Oceanic. with W. c. Greene. Mir. Smith has been in Wash ington fighting the proposed uniting of Arizona and New Mexico into one state
 When seen at Osborn, by a Review reporter, Mr. Smith said that Arizona need not fear the merger bill. It will pass the house, probably by big ma jority. but will not pass the senate.
 The bill will get into the senate sometime during the last of this week, or the first of next, and will not pass.
 The Review has been tformei by the best of authority that the defeat Of the obnoxious bill in the senate is due to the untiring work of Mark Smith, among his friends in the sen ate.

THAT AWFUL BODY BLOW.

Hon. W. K. Meade ,ex-United States marshal for Arizona during the last administration of President Cleveland, is out in a letter declaring that the action, or lack of action, of the Ter ritorial Democratic committee, in fail ing to endorse Wm. R. Hearst for the Democratic nomination for president, aoes not meet with the approval of Sochise county Democracy.
 MT. Meade is a very prominent and innaential citizen of Cochise county, as he has been of Arizona for many years. While not partial to Mir. Hearst ne IS we'll acquainted with Democratic sentiment, and is a good enough Dem ocrat 10 believe in voicing the ponular will at all times.
 Mr. Meade's letter is as follows.
 Tombstone, Ariz. April IA. 1904. Hon. Sam F. Webb. Phoenix Ariz
 Friend Webb was very sorry rom a party standpoint to read in the papers today that the territorial con- mitoee Tailed to endorse Hearst. To nave endorsed him would, perhaps. nave made but little difference one way or the other 50 far as the nomina- uon is concerned, but it was due rom the territory, if not in a political sense, certainly as an act of gratitude ana courtesy, for bringing a party of congressmen here to aid us in state hood.
 Speaking for Cochise, know that iour-ffths of the voters of the county are for Hearst, regardless of their political complexion.
 The fight against Hearst means the loss of territorial delegates to the party this fall and defeat of several county tickets
 In saying what do do not wish to be understood as working for Mir. Hearst, for such is not the case. but hao' been a member of the territorial committee 1 would have had to en- dorse him to have been true 10 the Democrats of Cochise county. The party here has received a body-blow.
 Yours truly.

The editor Of the Review sat up after reading the above and tried to feel the affects of that terrible left handed swing in the Democratic stom- ach of Cochise county. It was no use. The shock has not reached this far yet.
 We even went so far as 10 inquire around town in an effort 10 find some Democrat who had been knocked out or the Democratic party by that left hook, administered by the territorial committee, but all of our efforts were to no purpose. We then sat down and communicated with Democrats in diff ferent sections of the county, thinking perhaps, the strength of the body blow had given cut at some point along the San Pedro, but up to this writing the only individual who has expressed his wonder on the surface. is the gen tleman from Tombstone, the Hon. W. K. Meade, personal friend of Grover Cleveland, ana an appointee of the ex- president as United States marshal in this territory during the second term in office of the sage of Princeton.
 Turning from this subject to the meeting of the late Democratic terri torial committee, we endeayored to reason along the line of the ex-United States marshal, censuring the commit tee for its failure of endorsement of any presidential candidate. As we understand the matter, the territorial committee is the executive head of the democratic party in the territory They were assembled for the purpose of fix ing the time, place and manner Of holding the territorial convention. The meeting was composed of S'---. twelve men, and the balance of the reDresen tation from the territory was by proxy, held by the same individuals.
 For such a small representation of the party to have assumed the power to commit the Democracy or Arizona 10 any particular candidate, would have met with bitter denunciation from every county in the territory. The question of endorsing any par ticular candidate for the presidency is a subject solely for the Tucson con without any "prodding" from the ter
 This talk about the failure of the territorial committee to endorse Mir. Hearst, being a body blow to the Democrats of Cochise county, is the purest tommy rot. The Democrats of Cochise county are plenty able to act for themselves in all matters af fecting the welfare of their party, without any "pridding" from the ter ritorial committee.
 If there is a sentiment for Hearst Parker, German CT Olney in Cochise county, it will make itself felt at the proper time, and there is no disposi- ton on the part of any democrat to strangie the wishes of the majority of the party
