Storms Many Troubles.

After his second stay in the county jail since the robbery of the county treasury on the afternoon of Novem- Der s, Yavapai's treasurer, J. P. Storm, was again at liberty, having been released Thursday evening of last week at 8 o'clock on bond of sl0,000, says the Prescott Herald.
 At noon Friday, however, Storm was remanded to the custody of the sheriff because of the withdrawal from his bond of J. A. Bozarth. Friday after noon at 3:30 o'clock the new bonds man had not been found and Storm may have to spend more time in jail.
 After the grand jury brought in the four indictments against him last Wednesday afternoon, Storm was ar rested by the sheriff's office about g o'clock at night and placed in jail.
 His bond was fixed Wednesday in the sum of sl0,O0O by Judge Sloan, but owing to the late hour it could not be obtained and Storm had to remain over night in jail.
 Thursday Attorneys Ross and O'Sul- livan prepared the bond and secured the required number of signatures, which brought about the release of their client after he had spent Thanks giving day in jail. On the previous occasion he spent his fifty-first birth day in cell
 Storm takes his incarceration hero ically and is bearing up we'll in the face of most trying circumstances.
 i've have no desire to discuss the merits of thecase at the present time" !" remarked Attorneys Ross and O'Sulli- van this morning, "but when the case comes to trial we will establish the in nocence of one of Yavapai's most in jured pioneers.

Under the provisions of the charter
incorporating the town of Friends

recent session of the Legislature, an
election was held on Tuesday to de
eide whether or not spirituous and
fernented liquors shall be sold within
the limits of the town after May list

holders of the town who are otherwise
qualified as voters shall be eligible
to vote upon the question of license,
said election to be held on the fourth
Tuesday of April between the hours
of l o'clock and o'clock p. III. To
meet the property qualification so
that they could have a voice in the
election about twenty-five men pur-
chased a lot in the town and parceled
it out among themselves, having
deeds executed and recorded for the
same in the Office of the Clerk of the
Circuit Court in Oakland. thus be-
coming freeholders.
In all - votes were cast, as follows:
For license, 45; against license, 20
Those opposing the granting Of
license alleged that the twenty five
votes cast by the nominal freeholders
were illegal and threaten to take steps
in the courts to prevent the Clerk
from issuing license to any who may
apply for the same.
The election was carried on very
quietly and was held in the office of
Justice w. H. H. Friend.

ATTEND THE PRIMARIES.

Attention is called to the notice

garding the primary meetings to be
held in the several districts of the
county on Saturday, April Both.
These meetings for the purpose of

end, should, and we hope will, be well
attended, not alone that suitable
persons may be selected, but to show
that the voters have the party's vel
fare at heart AN indication, as it were,
that the people fully appreciate the
privilege of participating in the pre-
iiminaries of contest later on of

sible toward the retention in power
Of the Republican party, and the in

the country is an augury of success.
President Roosevelt is sure of a re-
nomination. The same can be said of
Congressman Pearre and the good rec
ord he has made in the past leaves
little if any doubt of his reelection.
Interest here begets enthusiasm

Friday morning at about the same
hour two farmhouses in this county
were consumed by fire, both blaz

Daniel Mosser, residing about
mile north of Swanton, was one of
the unfOrtunates, his house, a comfor-

burned to the ground along with
some pieces of furniture which could
not be gotten out. He carried no in

was partly log and partly frame, and

FROM the stand pointof layman il
seems reasonable to question the con
stituti0nality of provsiono of the cleo
ton law, passed at the late session OF
the General Assembly of MARYLAND, by
which the party designation is to be
omitted after the names of the candi-
dates in certain counties and inserted
in other counties. AS a general prin-
ciple it cannot be doubted that the
legislature has no authority to discrim-
mate in a general law, in the matter
of the rights of citizens in different
counties of the State, and the courts
should hold, on the ground of public
policy, if such legislation is not direct
ly prohibited by constitutional pro
vision, that it is null and void.

Proposed Telephone Line Extension.
The Bloomington correspondent of
the Piedmont independent, in his
last weeks letter TO that paper, had
the following to say which will be of
interest to many in all sections of the
county:
Mr. Maf1ett, president of the Gar
rett County Telephone Co., and Mr..
Smith were in town Wednesday in
the interest of the above company.
They were soliciting subscribers for
stock in their company, and if enough
stock can be sold they will run a line
here, and through the exchange svs-
TEN people will have communication
with Blaine, Oakland Byard, Cumber-
land, Frostburg, Piedmont, keyser
and intermediate points. Our people
should be interested in this telephone
system and literally subscribe for
stock as it is a paying institution for
the stockholders and the rates for
services are extremely low. Mr.. Jarbo
Stillenbarger will look after the in
terest of the company at this point
and will cheerfully answer all quest
ions regarding this line. The stock is
only ten dollars per share. Let our
citizens subscribe literally and let us
see telephone line to this place in
the near future. This line connects
with the Western Maryland at Deer
Park and the Gordon system at Pied

The troubles of the Commonwealth

of its creditors and Nessrs. Fred. A.

against it, We're appointed receivers
by the Circuit Court, which appoint
ment was later confirmed by Judge
Morris of the United States District
Court in Baltimore, who ordered the
plant and materials sold at pu bile
auction. The receivers advertised
the property but at the sale the
highest bid made was $4,000. The
property was withdrawn and Judge
Morris instructed the receivers, on
the 14th inst, to receive for ten days,
private bids for the property. This
they did and on Monday the bids

them was one of $4,000, made by
gentlemen representing parties who
desire to reorganize the company by
forming new corporation.
The bid was submitted to Judg e
Morris Tuesday afternoon by the re
ceivers, who at once ratified and con
firmed the sale.
Under the reorganization plan the
property will be operated for the ben
eft of the creditors Already con
tracts have been made for hides and
the business will go on without inter
ruption.
The satisfactory turn which the
affairs of the company has taken is a
matter for congratulatlon all around.
Mr.. Palmer will be retained as su-
perintendent of the plant under the
new company. The ability he dis
played in the management prior TO
the introduction of Mr.. Maxwell into
its affairs will soon result in the
reinforcement of its fortunes.

PARTISAN LEGISLATION

The session OF the General Assembly
of Maryland for 1904, which came to
an end by constitutional limitation a
midnight on the 4th inst, will go down
IN history as perhaps the most ex-
tremely partisan of all sessions of that
body up to the present time. The
larger part Ofthe winter was given up
20 connecting and enacting into law
schemes by which,the Democrats hope
to make the State of MARYLAND solidly
Democratic for an indefinite period.
Among the bills ofthis characterpass-
ed was, first, that to submit a consti-
tutlonai amendment to vote of the
people. by which it is hoped a large
number of the colored people will be
disfranchised. This proposed amend
ment is Of such drastic characte r and
contains provisions so absurd that
Governor Warfeld intimated his in
tentlon to veto it, but was prevented
from doing so by its Transmission to
the clerk of the Court of Appeals with
out having been submitted for his ap-
prOYal or rejection. In special mes
sage to the Senate he claims that this
was clear violation of his preroga-
tive as Governor, and pointed out
very forcibly the Objectionable fea-
lures of the amendment; but his mes
sage was treated with scant courtesy,
if not with contempt. Another out
rageously partisan measure is a bill
abolishing party designations after
the names of candidates on official
ballots, chiefly in counties having nu-
merous colored voters. This law ap-
plies only to Anne Arundel, Calvert,
Charles, Frederick, Garrett, Kent,
Prince Georges st. Mary's, Somerset
Talbot and Worcester counties Still!
another partisan measure is bill sub

resentation on boards of registration
