BURCH-BENTLY
A Prescott harriage-The Groom We'll
 Known in Phoenix.

George Rurch sprung a great sensa- tion on his friends yesterday afternoon when he quietly led Miss Annie Laura Bentley to the altar to become his wife, said the Prescott Herald of Thursday. The wedding was solemnized by Rev. Father Bennett of the Episcopal church. P. J. Farley was the best man and Miss Dollie Butler stood up beside the hlushing bride as the words were said by the good minister.
 The bride is a charming young lady who has been residing at Skull Valley with her mother and stepfather. She was. raised in this county. having re- cottS While living at the railroad eat ing hause at Skull Valley she became ccquaineed with MT. Burch, who has been railfead man for years.
 The groom George Burch, is a man well liked in this community where he is we'll known. He has been in the em- ploy of the s. F. P. & P. railroad since the road was built, and has always proved himself a very efficient man. as is proven by the fact that he has just been raised to assistant roadmaster under s. w. Higley.
 The newly married couple will reside in Prescott in the future. They are now staying at the Prescott House. The wedding comes as more of a sur prise on account of the fact that the bride was reouted 70 be engaged to q young man, Alfred Stapp. residing near Skull Valley, and who is now building a house in preparation for the event, as he supposed.

Why Olive hilns of England Came to
 This Country.

Miss Olive Milns, whose experiences in free trade England were unsatisfac- tory, and who has come to this coun- try for betterment of-her condition, makes the following statement:
 .'.I was driven out of England. Com mercial stagnation and lack of Oppor- tunity haunted me everywhere. I had seen from year to year my fathers business dwindle from being the wealthiest cotton manufacturing firm in Lancashire to failure. Fifty years ago his father before him was known as one of the "cottCn kings" of Man chester Today the music of a thous- and looms are stilled. and not a yes tige of the enterprise remains.
 Tn later years, although a child. often wondered why we were getting poorer, why we had to live in a smaller house and keep fewer servants. My father explained to me that many of his competitors had removed their ma chinery to Japan. where a days labor could be hired for a handful of rice. and that the finished material was sent back to England and sold at a price less than which it could be made for in his mills. He told me that Ger many and other countries Were load ing England with their products and taking orders at prices he could not compete with. l saw the dust Of years gathered on the unsold bales in our warehouses. I remember as if it were yesterday. hearing one of the clerks sarcastically remark. that "a fire would be g. blessing to get rid of the old stock and collect the insurance. %
 When the crash came my father went out to the Transvaal as the man. ager of a gold mine, leaving his wife and five daughters behind almost un- provided for. He joined a regiment when the Beer war broke out and was killed at the fatal battle of Spion Kop. Having studied the manufacturing con- ditiCns in England and America and actually experienced the results of these conditions. I know now that free trade ruined my fathers business, robbed his children Of their inheri- tance, and drove him into the arms of death.
 If a workingman dies and leaves his family penniless they are better able to help themselves than the children Of an employer under the same circum- stances. because the latter in England are not educated or brought up to work. The choice for me to earn my living in my own country was between the slavery of a nursery gOverness and the hopeless drudgery of a barmaid. To be either meant to lose caste and reduce to 9 minimum my chances of marrying well-the one refuge of the average English girl. investigated the life and chances of a shop girl In one of the large stores in London all the aDOliClufS for n va nov had tO ha clergymen's daughters-a considera- ticn made solely fer the purpose of re- ducing the large number of applicants for every vacancy.

Every Man in the Bank Knew the
Saloon Keeper But They conldn't
Afford to Speak.

ine saloonkeeper stepped into the
bank to get a check cashed. but the pay-
Ing teller gave him a cold stare II
would do the paying teller no good with
his superiors to recognize the saloon
keeper, for the bank was inclined 10 be
particular about the habits and associa-
tons of it, employees, relates Elliott
Flower, In the BrookIyn Eagle.
You'll have to be Identified said the
paying teller.
What" cried the saloonkeeper.

the teller calmly.

the saloon man, IF you're Joking
Don't block the way please" inter-
rupted the teller. IF you'll bring In
some responsible party who knows you
I'll be glad to give you the money"
Some responsible party!" repeated
the saloon man. why. I own the sa-
loon at the corner"
Then o ought to have no trouble
abo1t Identification, asserted the teller.
Trouble! Identificationi" the sa-
loon man fairly yelled. why, anybody
In the bank can identify me-"
His voice carried far, and the wey all
the clerks in the vicinity "got busy
was most extraordinary. There wasn't
n of them who could see him, although
he tried vainly to attract somebody's
-anybody's attention.
Then the teller leaned forward con-
fdentially.
Get the president to identify you"
he said. He's the only one who car at
ford to do It,"
A few minutes later the matter was
Strengthened out, but. as the saloon man
counted the money. he remarked rather
bitterly to the teller:
"The next time you want something
with a little bitters In it put on the slate
you'll have to be identified. Don'tfprget
that. l never saw you before myself"

TRY HOME RULE.

The little controversy in the
Wiun Parish primary is argument
enough to show the dangers of an
elective assessor. It got to be q
matter a. to which of the candi-
dates would agree to reduce assess
ments most If elected.
Again, the assessors Office is q
part OF the fiscal machinery of the
government and should be under
state, rather than local CONTROL
Advocate.
Restore to the police juries, who
are elected by the people, and who
should know better than any man,
at the State Capitol or anywhere
else, the right a. boards of review
ers, to reduce the over-assessments
that may be made by the assessor,
and such competitions as are cited
to have occurred in VIM, would
not amount to . row of pins. But,
through his ward juror. every pro-
perry holder would have represen-
tation in the taxation levied against
him. Again. through the police
juries who are elected to provide
the ways and means to maintain
the roads and bridges, the public
buildings and government of the
parish, it il presumable that the
assessments would be kept at a g.
CURE that would be fair alike to
the parish and to the taxpayers.
The state government ought to be
satisfied to get its share of reve-
nues on the same plane of assess
ment-The People.

Democracy or What?

ssOSsoey Va vA1oSs
We favor the separation of the
Offices Of assessor and registrar,
especially il the curtailment craze
is to include Ahe former in its
operations.
But our arguments and objec-
tions will be largely answered by
the separation OF these two Offices.
It would never, never do to make
the registrar Of voters elective
Advocate.
Why not, pray. Since when
have the people of this State be-
come incompetent to elect their
parish registrars of voters. wheth-
or their functions are separated or
combined with the assessor or any
other parish officer? Why should
q registrar Of voters elected By the
people and responsible to them,
be lees apt to perform his duties
as the Law directs aud according
to the obligations of his oath of
office, than one appointed by the
Governor? If is be true that the
people OF Louisiana cannot be
