The Democratic clique hates Charles
w. Lynch. Whyi Because he is a
true blue Republican and because he is
SO strong that they know there is no
possible way of defeating him, no mat
ter now much Doodle they use and no
matter that they do throw down one
who has been stcadfast in the faith for
a generation or two and who has fought
Democratic battle after battle without
reward. They recognize in Lynch a
man of character, man of integrity.
man who respects law. As they do
not want that sort for judge. but rather
a man who will further their ends and
do their bidding. they are bitter toward
Lynch. But that only makes him the
stronger.

Some of the leading old-line Democrats
want to know how it happened that at
ter they had selected their delegates in
Srriis district the matter had to be
taken ont of their hands and given tc
a committee to select. They also want
to know why the Sardis precinct, where
more Democratic votes are cast than at
any other precinct in the district i.
without representation at the senatorial
judicial and state conventions They
want to know why that precinct was
not given even m alternate for any Of
these conventions. They also say they
want to know why the clique did IT
that way. They say there is a niggei
in the wood pile and have requested
tho Telegram to ask the clique 10 tell
them all about it. Come on now with
Your answers.

At the instance of the Democratic
clique. it would seem. there was an open
declaration in tine Prohibition conven.
ton that the only people in the Demo,
cratic convention who opposed the nom.
nation of Short constituted the whiskey
clement of the Democratic party in
Harrison county. It Is an imputation
that Fighter and mis- supporters will
resent, or at least ought to, since it il
fact that there were many supporters
Of Fighter who are sober men and
RICHTER himslf is a man of strictest
sobriety. But the clique resorts to any
thing and every thing for the time be.
ing to carry a point and that was what
it evidently did in Tails case.

One of the best evidences OF who was
trying to run the Prohibition party in
this county is that in the county con.
vention of that party there was actually
a bona fide Democratic committeeman
voting. making speeches and nominating
candidates. That IS certainly all the
argument necessary to convince the pub.
lie ms to who was trying to run the Pro-
hibition party. But we might add that
one clique candidate took the pains tt
telephone from his home instructions
to the convention, while still another
sent the convention written address
and still another wrote the chairman of
the county executive committee ns to
the proceedings of the convention. while
still other Democrats were there boost,
ing the game. Now. here we have a
Democratic committeeman. three clique
nominees and other clique parasites
meddling with the affairs OF the PROM
bition party. What more need we tc
show where and what the Democratic
clique was and did?

CLIQUE RUsE FOR ENDORSEMENT

In the neighboraood of four thousand
persons voted for Republican nominees
in this county ut the recent primary
election. According to the gutter wiper
of the Democratic clique these four
thousand either constitute what ii calls
the ring or they are not citizens of Har-
rison county. If they constitute the
ring that that sheet talks about, then it
refers to the Republican party of the
county Al. the ring and it follows that
these four thousand people, according
to its statement, are looting tng public
Offices.
In consequence of that sort of dec'ara-
ton the clique's mouthpiece regards the
Republican party in Harrison county as
grafters and undertakes to arraign .hcm
as such. It's effort is at this particular
iuncture by such. line of declaration to
heal the rupture IN its own party by
making a party issue of the matter

Is Now Free From Water, and Sink
 ing Is Resumed.

4 few hours on the part of the pumps at the wolverine & Arizona's s shaft removed the accumulation of water at the bottom so that yesterday sinking was again commenced. From now on the work of going down with the shaft will progress rapidly and it is reasonable to assume that further development will result in proving this property one of the bonanzas of shis district.
 With it's excellent location and very best of indications the ". & A will, as one of the Warren mining districts permanent producers. The main shaft on the property is now town some 5S0 feet and at the 500-foot level drifting has been done for a distance of more than so feet on a strong and persistent ledee of iron and copDer bearing formation. This ledge is of considerable width and is well defined and gives the best of indications of leading to a large body of ore.
 The compressor. which has been insfslied in the plant at the shaft IS ready for use. and force Of m sn are now busy erecting an additional boiler The comrapy is installing fhe aditional boiler so as not to be delayed in case of an emergency which might require a greater amour. -of rower than can be furnished oy the boilers now in use.
 Operations at the shaft are going along steadily and smoothly and it is only a question of the necessary time to reach depth when the 3a~ties in terested in the company will have cause for elation-

DT. |. D. RickettS
 NOW BECOMES
 Superintendent RESIGNATION OF F. w. HoAR OF THE OLD DOMINION.
pr. Rieketts Succeeds Him, and Will Have an Assistant-The Plant, Shaft and Other Improvements Designed Sy Mir. Hoar, and No Better is South west.

The resignation of F. W. Hoar as superintendent of the Old Dominion Copper Mining & Smeldng company has been announced, to take effect February l or as soon thereafter as he is relieved by Dr. l.. D. Ricketts, who will take charge as general super intendent and agent of the company at Globe.
 The announcement came as a sur prise 10 very many persons( and was received with regret by Mir. Hoar's friends.
 Mir. Hoar has been connected with the Old Dominion company since Sep tember 14, 1897. on which date he be- came assistant engineer to s. A. Par nall, whom he succeeded as superin- tendent on July 26, 1901. During his continuous service of nearly six and a half years Mir. Hoar has gained a thorough knowledge of the Old Do minion property and has filled the position of superintendent very credit ably, notwithstanding he was ham pered in many ways. The new plant, shaft and other improvements now so well advanced toward completion. were designed by MT. Hoar. and there Is no better mine equipment in the southwest than the Old Dominion will have.
 Mir. Hoar will remain here for a month or more, taking advantage of the opportunity to gain a better knowledge of Globe mining district. and he may for time turn his atten- tion to the examination of properties Q; the solicitation of eastern investors.
 Although no word has been received from Dr. Ricketts direct, it is pre- sumed that he will arrive within the next few days to take charge of the Old Dominion company's property. pr. Ricketts is an eminent mining engineer, and besides being assistant 10 Professor James Douglas and con- sulting engineer for all the Phelps Dodge properties, he is at present con structing engineer of the great con cenuating mill being erected by the Greene Consolidated Copper Mining company at CaEanea- In view of the many demands upon Dr. Rcketts' time i. is not probable that he will re- main here as resident superintendent for any great length of time, and the appointment of an assistant to him here is looked for.-Globe Silver Belt

 BLE PROMISE TO iN-
 VISITORS. Work Is Going Steadily On io a Two-compartment Shaft. Two Drifts Are Following a Rich Ledse-Pienty of Money to Work the l Property.

One of the development properties of this district, now commanding a large share of attention and one which gives exceptionally favorable promise of contracting the interest of invest ors, is the Mitchell Development com pany, whose group of ffty-ive claims are located in the Huachuca noun tains. Development work is going or steadily in the two-compartment shaft that has been sunk to a depth of $50 feet. At this point two drifts were started about two weeks ago, one running in a northwesterly direc- tion and the other to the southeast. Both are following the rich ledge en- countered in the shaft at $50 feet. The former is now in about fifteen feet and the latter about twelve.
 We have some water in our shaft, ," said Captain James Piper, who has full charge of the development work on the property. to the Review rep resentative yesterday, but not in such large quantities as to cause a suspension of operations as our gaso- line hoist can easily take care of the flow. In case there chould be an in- crease of water we will immediately install another hoist of the same ca pacity as the one now in use. The hoist which is held for cases of emer- gency is now on the ground and can be erected and placed in working or. der on almost a moments notice"

The First Week
 OF THE ! New Year
CALUMET AND ARIZONA MAKES A
 BIG SHOWING.
MT. Ne~ett, of Iron Ore. Says He Saw What He Saw. and Mr. Newett Comes Pretty Near Knowing What He sees-A Great Property.

For the first week in .he new year treated oxide ores that gave 11.70 per cent copper, and sulphides that gave 784 per cent, the latter being a con siderably greater quantity than he former. And there are stopes in the mine that will yield an average of 50 per cent copper George Newett, ed itor of the Ishpeming Iron Ore. Ishpe- ming, Michigan, says he saw these while examining the mine and there is no doubt that MT. NUwett knows man was working using Gn one-haat crill. wheeling out his own dirt.
 On the ore treated the first week this year an average copper output If 104. .790 pounds was made each day, which would give 3,143,700 pounds per month, or 37.724, 400 pounds per year. The Iron Ore asserts that far more of the leaner than the richer ores contributed to this result. It should be remembered, '.,o. that only lNO omCltCAo diC All OP dNAOh n third is ready and will s)rn be blown in.

 The Calumet & Arizona is not b;,- ing treated as mine that is soon to be exhausted of its store5 as the fol- lowing from MT.

Another holder of 10000 shares figures the same way. and oth- ers holding 5000 shares, or more are known who are not stock jobbing them"

THE BULLS EYE.

How the Center OF the Target Came
to he So Named.
Why is the targets bulls eye so call
ed?
This is one Of many instances in our
language where words have gained a
higher status than that with which
they started and have been promoted
from the slang dictionary to the die
tionary of words of respectable and
current use.
Bulls eye Is found in the dictionary
of 1.-The Canting Crew" so far back as
1890 and was the vulgar word for the
central ring of the target used as
mark for archers, which was colored
differently from the other rings. This
may have arisen from the ancient
rounded shields, cut out Of OK hide and
strengthened with a spike or central
boss for this shield or target; hence
target was often used as a mark itself.
When sheet glass began to be manu-
featured the thickened part, where the
tube had been attached, was called the
bulls eye. Then this term was success
sively applied to lens Of glass, espe-
cially in a ships side, to the lens of
the lantern, to the lanAern itself and
finally to the central boss of a target.

The Grizzly In the Old Days.

In the old days, before the deadly
magazine rifle was invented, hunting
the grizzly was very different affair,
and no animal on the American CONT
nent was more dreaded, his fierceness
and vital force when wounded filling
the most reckless hunters with a
wholesome dread. 1t was not at all
unusual for a grizzly with bullet
through his heart to pursue and tear
to pieces the hunter, whose hong, single
barreled, muzzle loading rifle, with its
one round lead bullet, was altogether
inadequate for such a contest. 1t is a
strange thing. too, that, while the griz-
ely bear is an omnivorous feeder, liv-
ing on anything, from roots and nuts
to steer and buffalo meat, he has never
been known to devour human flesh

Mix Thoroughly With Common Sense
and Take Regularly.

Sunshine. - Disinfectant, germicide.
soporiiic, sedative. Soak yourself in it
spiritually, mentally, bodily. Make a
storage reservoir of your heart and
soul and store up every stray sunbeam
that comes your way. Fill the reser-
voir full. so that there will be enough
for your friends and neighbors too.
Just a little dab stored up for your
own use will all evaporate before you
have chance TO get any satisfaction
out of IL.
Fresh ir.-Disinfectant, germicide,
tonic, sedative, stimulant blood puri-
fer Pump the pure article down into
the very roots of your lungs-steady,
sure, all the time, day and night. Pure
air, remember, not some old second
hand stuff that has been used over and
over again nor that which has been
poisoned by the burning of gas In the
room, but pure air, fresh from mead
ow and forest. That is what the air
cells of your lungs are in need Of II
they are to make pure air, without

gentleman, that, barring man and a
peacock, believe canary bird is the
vainest of all creatures? Both my wife
and myself are very fond of pets, and
we keep several of these little song
sters always in the house. One OF the
cages was an old affair, which had
been in the family for years and was
used as much for traditions as for
economy's sake. l had frequently re-
marked to my wife that l believed the
occupant of this cage was somewhat
ashamed Of his shabby dwelling place
and observed with envious eyes the
fact that the other songsters were
more artistically lodged. Well, the old
cage finally collapsed, and ii became
necessary TO purchase new one. In
order TO test my belief in the intelli-
gence of my feathered friend, | made
it point TO get him the prettiest little

was magical. No sooner was he turn
ed into his new home than he began
to sing as he had never sung before
completely drowning out the music Of
the other birds and behaving otherwise

The republican party, by its national
platform adopted at Chicago, goes be-
fore the people on its record-and a
proud record it is. No backward step is
taken in the matter of maintaining the
protective policy under which the United
States has prospered as nation never
prospered before, and yet the party
clearly indicates that it is welded to no
particular schedules, but stands ready
to revise the tariff whenever changed con.
ditions shall make it best for the general
welfare. 1t is only wisdom that continue
ton of the protective system, beneficient
as it is, should be left in the hands Of it's
friends, and it's revision not entrusted
TO its perpetual enemy, the democratic
party. The republican party naturally
takes to itself credit for the establish
ment of decent civil government in
Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines,
and for the vigorous foreign policy that
has characterized the present admins
tration and excited the admiration and
commanded the respect of the world.
The platform is short, terse and withal
sufficient to place the party squarely
before the people, who will not be slow
to "let well enough alone, especially as
there is not live, forceful issue in sight
on which the democracy can reasonably
ask for support.

Sudden Awakening Y.

That it is bad for the heart to be
walked up suddenly in the morning is
the contention Of certain writer,
who bases his opinion on the fact that
to be suddenly awakened from sound
sleep sends a great rush Of blood to
the heart, thus overtaxing and strain
ing it. People whose business necessi-
tates their being awakened early have
long suspected the practice of being
an evil one and have tried to rid them
selves of it. But heretofore they have
had no better reason for wishing to
continue to lie in bed than that they
found it inconvenient or unpleasant to
rise early. Evidently they have right
on their side. 1t is an unhygienic
practice this being walked up at I'M
earthly hours in the dusk of the early
morning. 1t is bad for the heart.
