ARIZONA KICKLETS.
The Editor of 1.-THE Kicker as He
Really Is.

In letter received from an eastern
state the other day the writer says:
I'm view of the fact that you are
going to be president of these United
States in 1908, would it not be well
for you to issue a brief autobiography
of yourself for the benefit of the world
at large? Don't pile it on too thick,
but just give us the fact in the case"
AS we are one of the most modest
men in public life. and without the
slightest egotisrn in our composition,
we are reluctant to speak of ourself
in any manner, but at the same time
we realize that the millions of people
who will soon be asking: "Who the
devil is jim Hellso?" have rights in
the case. We have therefore decided
to break over our long established
rule of never referring to ourself in
the first person.
To begin with, we were born in In
diana, and were not a year old when
an astrologist predicted that the Dog
Star was our friend and would see us
through.
At the age of five we were trying to
quote Horace to our parents, and had
investigated the wonders of nature to
the extent that we knew just how the
bumble-bee worked his old machinery
to jump a bob-tailed boy five feet
high.

1T VIOLATED ALL RULES.
Judge Webb of Atchison Discusses the
Trial of Christ.

Kansas City, Dec. 12.-Judge w. D.
Webb of Atchison, Kan, lectured last
night at the Independence Avenue Meth
odiSt church on THE Trial of Jesus
and he summed up his discussion with
the statement:
1.-The pretended trial violated every
rule of both Hebrew and Roman juris-
prudence and the death on Calvary was
murder s'9
Judge Webb, who was for a number
of years on the bench in the Second
Kansas judicial district, made careful
analysis in his lecture of both the Jew
ish and the Roman systems of juris-
prudence, and his conclusion was that
it seemed impossible that under the
evidence submitted, Christ could have
been convicted.
"Under the Jewish law" said Judge
Webb, there were two kinds of trials,
trials for money and trials for life. A
trial for life could not be begun at
night, and If the accused was not dis
charged forthwith it was the law that
the case should be continued for TWEEN
ty-four hours after which the judges
should again try to arrive at a verdict.
For this reason a trial for life could
not be begun on the day before the
Sabbath, Saturday, or before feast
day. Christ was arrested on Thursday
night, and Immediately upon his ar
rest he was arrafgned. This was illegal.
The open injustice of putting Christ
upon trial Immediately after his ar
rest and in the night time was an atroc-
ity never before witnessed in Jewish
jurisprudence. 1t is a blot on Jewish
history, regardless of the truth or fa.lsi-
ty of the Messiahship of Jesus Christ. )"
Judge Webb described how Christ was
taken before the Sanhedrin in the night,
even though no charge had been made
against him.
IT have been unable, indeed, to learn for
what he was first arrested said Judge
Webb. The speaker declared that Christs
condemnation and death were decided up
on before his arrest. The efforts and fail
ure of the priests to find charge against
Christ were reviewed by Judge Webb and
he told of the questions put to Christ, all
illegal under the Jewish law, which
question put to Christ. as to whether or
not he was the Son of God, ChriSt's an
swer to which was:
Il am the Christ, the Son of Cod
On this answer, said the speaker, the
Sanhedrin convicted Christ of blasphemy.
For anyone to claim to be the Son of
God" said Judge Webb, was blasphemy.
if the claim Were not true, and blasphemy
under the Jewish law was punishable with
death. No one else had been able to testi-
that was why the high priest asked the
question. Christ was not obliged to an
swer to it, and if he had not the greatest
tragedy in history would have been pre-
vented right there
Judge webb next described the trial
before Pontius PLATE, the Roman COVER
nor, where the charge against Christ was
changed by His accuserS from blasphemy
to treason against Rome, on which charge
PLATE first found Him innocent and then
reversed his verdict because he feared
an uprising of the Jewish people.
There were two trials said Judge
Webb. In both the judges were unjust
and their trials were unfair.

BRIDGeR MONUMENT.
Shaft to the Memory OF Noted E.x-
plorer Is Unveiled.

Kansas City, Dec. 12.-The bones of
James Bridger, hunter, trapper, fur
trader, explorer, guide, scout and In
dian fighter, which for twenty-three
modest slab hidden in a thicket on a
farm south of Westport, now lie I'M
der a massive. bowlder-like monu-
ment which was unveiled yesterday
afternoon in Mt. Washington Gene
terry.
Among the achievements recorded
upon his monument which will per-
petuate his name are the discovery of
Yellowstone park region and the
revelation to the world of its wonders
and, greatest of all, the discovery of
South pass that made possible the
building of the first tranScontinental
railroad.
Tt was this last achievement that
won him the monument that now
stands above the casket that holds his
bones. General Granville NJ. Dodge of
New York was the engineer for the
road, and to him was delegated the
task Of finding a route through the
mountains over which a railroad could
be built. For so long that it seemed
that the enterprise must fail, the search
was unavailing. Then General Dodge
heard of Jim" Bridger, whose wonder
full knowledge of the plains and noun
tafns had made him noted through the
west, and sent for him To Bridger, a
man of little education, was put the
question of a practicable route for
great engineering feat like a railroad
through the mountains. Without a mo-
ments hesitation Bridger said that the
road could be built through South pass,
an opening through the mountains that
he had discovered. From that day I'M
til the completion of the road Jim"
Bridger was General Dodge'S constant
companion and adviser.
General Dodge did not forget the
frontiersmans services, and a year ago
at the unwilling of the monument to
General w. T. Sherman in Washing
ton he conveyed to Colonel John B. Col
ton of Kansas City his desire to erect
a monument to Bridger. To Colonel
Cotton was left the task of finding
where Bridger was buried and of de-
signing the monument which it was de-
cided should be erected in Mt. Wash
monument yesterday was the result.
The bones of the trapper had been re-
moved a week ago to the cemetery from
the grave on the old Bridger farm near
Dallas, a little town south of West
port.
At Mt. Washington the shaft was set
on the slope of the hill on the east side |
of the lake. 1t looks to the west, to- |
wards which the eyes of Jim Bridger
were ever irresistibly turned and if the |
long sightless eyes of the old pioneer
could see again they would look out |
across hills that he trod in his youth |
before the threatened letters of ad-
vancing civilization drove him toward |
the setting sun.

At the age of ten we could give the
country schoolmaster spades and clubs
on education and had begun to be
fond of the pistol and bowie knife.
At fifteen we were thrown on the

world set out to throw us down in the
usual way. We started in to learn the
shoemaking business. but after work
ing at it three months and reading
the life of Napoleon we decided that
we were born to make a hole in the

1t was only at twenty that our surg

STILWELL RETURNS.
Scheduled to Reach Kansas From
Mexico Today.

A. E. Stilwell. president of the Kan
sas City, Mexico & Orient, with a par
ty of about fifty stockholders and di-
rectors in the company, are scheduled
to reach Kansas from Mexico today.
The party have been touring Mexico
and especially the lines of the Orient
in the republic and will get to Wichita
Monday to take a trip over the lines
southwest of that city. While in Mex
leo the party received every attention
from the officials of that government
and the party was greatly pleased with
the progress made south of the Rio
Grande.
The visit of the party to Wichita is
anxiously awaited by those connected
with the road there, for it is believed
that it will be the signal for starting
the work east from Wichita more ag-
excessively. Those in a position to
know say that the work east of Wich-
tia will be pushed rapidly until the line
reaches Emporia and when completed
to that place train service will be in
augurated to Kansas City. The road
will be leisurely built on itno Kansas

FRISCO OFFICES TO JOPLIN.
The General Offices Are to Be Moved
From Springfield.

Joplin. Mo. Dec. 1.-THE Frisco
Offices, in charge of ]. G. Taylor, d1-
vision engineer of the western division,
will be moved from Springfield to this
city about the 18th of this month. says
the Joplin Globe.
The offices will be located in the old
Memphis depot at Tenth and Main
streets, which is being completely over
hauled and elegantly fitted up for the
accommo daion of Mr.. Taylor and the
men under him.
The proposed change was deemed
advisable from the fact that Joplin is
more centrally located in the division
and the officials expect better results
all around.
Besides Mr.. Taylor's Offices there
will be a department for Chief Clerk
J. D. Kenner and an office for the ac-
counting clerk and his stenographer.
Pat Herd, division roadmaSter, who
now makes his headquarters in Carl
Junction, will be located in the new
general office, and Dave Bowersock,
master mechanic. will also have a de-
partment in the building.
Altogether the move will bring al
most a dozen men and their families
to Joplin as we'll as increase the rail-
road interests here to a great extent.

disease germ that it cannot kill. The
reason is that germs are vegetables;
and Liquozone-like an excess of oxy-
GEMS deadly to vegetal matter.
There lies the great value of Liquo-
ozne. 1t is the only way known to kill
germs in the body without killing the
tissues. too. Any drug that kills germs
is a poison, and it cannot be taken in
ternally. Medicine is almost helpless in
any germ disease. It is this fact that
gives Liquozone it's worth to humanity.
And that worth is so great that, after
testing the product for two years,
through physicians and hospitals, we
paid 500. 900 for the American rights.
