HUMILIATING BUT TRUE

The Industrial Advertiser, published
 at Albuquerque, New Mexico. copies
 an article recently published in the
 International concerning the assassination of Col. Francisco Chaves. the prominent politician who was shot in the back as he sat at the table of a friend with whom he was stopping during the night. The article deplored the prospect of Arizona being hooked up in statehood with New Mexico where political murders were common The Advertiser. after copying the edi- torial published comments as follows:
 Tt sounds harsh, and an involuntary protest rises, but what can we say in our defense. Only recently poor old man Macomber was murdered in that vicinity, and as soon as his last Jersey COW was sold for costs. the official world promptly forgot all about him The leading newspapers of the terri tory held to the opinion that he had many enemies in that section, because he objected to having his stock stolen, and they opined he was killed by some enemy. The general opinion prevails in the territory that his murderer or murderers had powerful in 9uences, and that it was not the part of politi cal wisdom to press the inquiry. However, the inquiry was not pressed. and no arrests were made. In fact the case was dropped after the estate was eaten up by illegitimate cost bills.
 "Other crimes are committed and nothing done. Even after a murderer is convicted and sent to the penitenti- ary, he secures 8 pardon as soon as he can induce a sufficient number Of his male relatives to agree to turn ropubli- can. If he is a republican to start with. and has votes in his family, there is very little danger of his going to the pen under a jury system like is used iD New Mexico.
 ''AII the respectable people in New Mexico can do is to taEe what We get in the way Of abase. and let the ad- minist-ation affidavit mon, employed on the admiuistTation Dewspa pe-s, swear cur accusers are liars.

DIFFERENCE QUITE NATURAL

DIFFERENCE QUITE NATURAL
 The following is an extract from thI report of the expert employed by th' recent grand jury. This extract shows that the man employed to examine the books and records of the county was subject to the individual direc- tion ef'W. K. Meade, the foreman of the grand jury:
 ''As per the request of the foreman of this grand jury I have prepared a list of persons receiving cash as wit nesses in eases tried this year. The treaeurer's office shoTs that $7ls.3o has beer paid for indigent and $8l9.3e for nonresident witnesses. In addi tion to this I find there are several de- mands on fle-D. L. Cunningham foI
 ums paid indigent witnesses.
 During the year 1903, it cost Pima county considerably less than $500 for such witnesses.
 "would beg.to call your attention to the difference in cost to the county of the precinct officers for Pima and Co., chise. The total cost for the year 1903 was to Pima sS 247.O5."
 This part of the work Of the expert was of course directed to be done for no other purpose than to show that the Cochise county officials had been ex- travaga1t in the matter of paying for indige7t and resident witnesses Those who are acquainted with the conditions in Pima county and Cochise county know very well that they are not of sufficient similarity to allow of comparison in any mat ter of public business. In Pima county there are 10 important settlements out side of Tucson and nearly all the busi- ness in the courts of that county origi- mated in Tucson, the county seat. In Cochise county the great buIk of tho court business comes from outlying points-Bisbee. Douglas and other large precincts. The expense of getting wit nessas is, necessarily much larger than it would b9 in Pima county where p,aoticaally a4 tho business eomes from Tucson.

PREMIER HINTS
At INFLUENCE"
Dominion Government Once
More Rejects Acts of Brit
ish Columbia's Legislature
FIGHT ON ASIATIC LABOR
japanese Consul at Ottawa
Supposed to Be Busy in
the immigration Line

VICTORIA, B. c., March %. - The
Dominion Government has again dis
allowed two acts of the British Column
bia Legislature which deal with the
Asiatic immigration into this province
and the employment of Chinese in coal
mines. Both measures were passed in
the session just ended.
Year after year British Columbia has
re-enacted the measure restricting
Asiatic immigration, the act being
framed on the Natal act, and as often
has the Dominion Government vetoed
it. The act prohibits the landing in the
province of persons who cannot read or
write in. language of Europe. The
latest enactment is a still closer copy
of the Natal act, its provisions being
more sweeping than those of the former
act.
Premier Mcbride said this afternoon
that he believed the Dominion Govern
ment was more amenable to certain in
fuences at or near Ottawa than to the
earnest appeals of the chosen repre-
sentatives of the people of British Co
lumbia. He says the measure will be
re-enacted. His references to influ-
ences is taken to mean the japanese
Consul at Ottawa.

CooIle Labor for TransvaaI.

The decision of the British Govern
ment to admit Chinese coolie labor in
South Africa, has led some of the Lon
don papers to draw on some early
writings of Mark Twain for alluring
pictures Of John Chinaman when his
days labors in the mines done he will
give himself up to his favorite pastime
Mr. Clemens, it will be remembered.
years ago, when a young reporter on
the Virginia City Enterprise, wrote a
series of articles describing the Chinese
quarter in that city. Very wildly he
pictured the scenes in the small cooped-
UP dens, unlighted save by the sickly,
guttering tallow candle, where barely
outlined in the gloom could be seen
two or three yellow, long tailed vaga-
bonds coiled UP in a sort of truckle- bed
smoking opium, motionless and with
their lusterless eyes turned inward
from excess of satisfaction"
and the stewing and frying
of the drug and the gurgling of the
juices IN the stem would well-nigh
turn the stomach OF a statue. John
likes it, though; it soothes him, he takes
about two dozen whiffs, and then rolls
over TO dream, Heaven only knows
what. for we could not imagine by
looking at the soggy creature. Posi-
bly, in his visions he travels far away
from the gross world and his regular
washing, and feasts on succulent rats
and birds nests in Paradise.-New York

Montana BufaIoes.

Vile in Montana last summer Will
liam Lovelace had an opportunity to
see the famous herd of buffaloes on
the Flathead reservation. This herd is
800 in number and is quite the lar
gest herd in captivity in the world.
Some thirty years ago ragged, bare
footed halfbreed named Peblo arrived
at the reservation and went to work
for wages until he was able to get
a small start in the stock business
Fifteen years later he purchased 40
head of buffaloes from Buffalo Bill
at a low figure, and from that be-
ginning his herd has grown to its
present size.
He finds a good market for the ami
mails at $500 apiece; showmen. me-
nageries, city and private parks be-
ing his principal customers. The herd
roams at will on range ten miles
square and are constantly under the
watchful eye of cowboy, who counts
and examines them daily.
Many tourists visit the place, some
travelling many miles for the express
purpose of seeing this unusual sight
Besides his buffaloes Mr.. Peblo has
large herds of cattle and horses and is
now very wealthy.-Chemawa Amer
