CHURCH WEDDING
 AT AUVERGNE.
Miss Annie Clements and MT. Forrest L. Bleakley Married Wednesday Evening By
 Rev. MT. Jernigan.

Quite a party of outside friends from Newport, Tupelo, Weldon, Cotton Plant and Augusta wit messed the marriage of Miss An nie Antoinette Clements to MT. Forrest Lee Bleakley at the Methodist church in Auvergne Wednesday evening at 8:3O o'clock.
 That it was a very pretty we'd ding is the opinion of all,, the church having been very elabo- rately decorated in roses and potted plants and fern. The predominating colors were white and pink and their lively hues were in harmony with this happy wedding scene.
 Mrs. M. J. Lucas had charge of the decorating, in which she had been ably assisted by the young ladies.
 Preceding the entrance of the bridal party to the strains of Mendlessohn, played by Miss Elsie Harrison, Miss Martha Woodson of Memphis sang "Beauty's Eyes" very sweetly.
 Rev. J. F. Jernigan said the marriage service iA a very i'm pressive way, the soft notes of the Flower Song" adding to the effect and beauty of the rite.
 The bridesmaids were Misses Katherine Harrison and Leah Campbell, who were beautifully gowned and carried large bou- quets of pink roses. MT. Marvin Hare as best man and MT. John Conner as groomsman also served as ushers and were dressed in conventional black.
 The bride was beautiful in a handsome white silk null over taffeta, tastily trimmed in rib bon and lace and carried a large boQnet of brides roses.
 An elegant reception followed at ths home of the bride, which was veritable flower garden in natures richest contributions. Delicate refreshments were serv- ed, ,land Misses Kathleen and Ruth Conner dispensed a most refresh ing frappee.s
 A source of much fun was the cutting of the wedding cake, Miss Martha Woodson securing the ring; Miss Flo4le Eskew, the thimble, and MT. w. s. Davis the dime.
 The newly wed were the recip- fer s of many handsome presents cut glass, silver, china. furniture, etc. Both bride and groom are held in highest esteem by a host of friends, who join the Indepen- dent in expressing congratula- tions and good wishes. May love ever bind their union to hap piness, and garnish their pathway with the richest bless ings of life.

THE MURDER OF CHAVES

THE MURDER OF CHAFES
 Hon. J.F. Chaves on Sunday night last in New Mexico was a crime calculated to horIify all who read of the dastardly deed. Chaves was one of the leading and prominent politicians of New Mexico, n republican, who in the past had been honored many times by his party and the people of the territory. His father was the first governor of the territory and the victim of this last assassination in New Mexico had once been a delegate in congress and at the last election was reelected as a memb Der of the territorial senate, of which he was president during the last session of that law making body. He was aged ever seventy years.
 This cold blooded murder is in line with many other crimes which have been committed in New Mexico for the purpose of removing those who could not be handled or controlled politi- cally. The political arena in our neightoring territory has been verita- ble slaughter pen; political feuds have been many and desperate in thier re- suits; many men have been killed by the assassin tor no other purpose than to remove opposition to the political advancement of someone or to satisfy a craving for revenge on account of political defeat.
 To recount the political feuds in New Mexico and the crimes chargeable to them would require pages of this paper, and this is the territory which is proposed to be joined to Arizona for the purpose of making one state. Peaceful Arizona, with a record of political peace and cleanliness is to be yoked to and dominated by this class of political assassins. While New Mexico of course contains many hon. est and respectable politicians it is known by its past record that it also contains many who would not stop at any crime to carry their political ends or to rId themselves of political enc mics.
 The assassination of Chaves should cause a redoubling of the energy of Arizona to defeat the proposed joint statehood bill. New Mexico would have complete control of the new state and Arizona would be lost forever and the condition of its citizens would be intolersble.
 i The danger of double statehood is
 real and the people of Arizona should
 bestir themselves to avert it if possible.

WHAT THE EVIDENCE SHOWS

Following is a statement of the evi- dence given in the probate court of Graham county. on the hearing of the petitions of John c. Gatti and others for letters of guardianship of the per sons of the foundling children:
 That about October l. of this year, the New York fondling hospital brought the orphans in question to Clifton and placed them in the hands of Mexican laborers' families: that the Mexican families in which they were placed are very poor and ignorant, and. in every case, unfit either financially or morally to have the care of the chll- dren; that the orphans were all Of white, American blood, were7ot both sexes and ranged in age from about two to four years; that a man by the name of Swayne, agent of tEe New York founding hospital, had charge of the children so placed in the Mexican families.
 That upon its being explained to this agent, Swsyne, that the families with whom these children had been placed were not Spaniards or Castilians. as he claimed, but were principally low class Indian and Mexican laborers, such as are known in Mexico and the southwest as "peons.' That they were not proper persons to have the care and custody of American cbil- dren; that they were not financially able U educate and support them, and were not morally proper persons to have the custody of said children; and that after these explanations had been made to the agent, Swayne. he was asked if he realized the position in which he had placed these children, to which he replied: ''i well realize it. The families with whom they have been placed h4ve been reported to me by our father here, whose word we must take. as Castilians and all first class families. I have visited these fmilies and have seen the people. l know my business and you cannot dic- tate to me. These children will stay where they have been placed"
 That the petitioners received the orphans from a committee of citizens who called on the Mexicans and re- auested that the orphans be given to the committee; that the Mexicans vol untarily gave the orphans to the com nittee, in many cases being only to- gsId to do so; that ali of the petition able to take care of the children. all of them having good moral homes fo the fortnnstes.
 Upon the foregoing showing mad hv the petitioners, without contradic ton, although the foundling asylum had been granted continuance fol two weeks. ample time to have brough as many witnesses as the institution desired, letters of guardianship zwei' granted as prayed for in the petitions
 Judge Little held that the foundline hospital hsd abandoned the children tC the Mexican families; that the Ian gusee of Swsyne. the agent: ''I have visited these families and have seer the people. know my business and you cannot dictate to me. These chil. dren will stay where they have been placed;;" proved beyond question such abandonment; that so far as the found ling hospital is concerned, it is cer- tsiuIy rot entitled to the custody of the orphans and that the Mexicans not having asked for the custody of the children. could net be considered in the matter.
