A FAITHFUL SERVANT.

Mark Smith will begin his campaign in Cochise county next Saturday evening October 22) at Benson where a grand Democratic rally will be held. from Benson Mir. Smith will go to Nogales- Returning Tuesday morn ing, October %, he will be met by a special train and on that day he will speak at St. David. Fairbank, Here ford and Naco. reaching Bisbee Tues dan nlght where he will speak in the Opera House. Wedensday he will speak at Douglas and on Thursday evening he win address the people of Tombstone.
 It will be pleasure for the people of Cochise county to meet and hear their old time friend, Mark Smith, for whom they have always felt a spe- cial interest because of the fact that he began his political career at Tomb stone. just after the creation of this county. That was in 1884 when he was elected to the office of district at torney. Since then he has been hon. ored six times with the nomination for delegate to Congress by the Democrats of Ar.zona and for twelve years he has faithfully served the people of the ter ritory.
 During all this time his record has se-1~ !, Lse mentioned in connection with dishon- or; hls name has never been mention ed in connection with jobbery or chicanery either by his political, of fcial, private or social life. He is Q man who despises demogoguery and hates duplicaty; what he has adve- cated he has done so boldly and there never was a time when the interests of Arizona was in jeopardy that Mark Smith could not be called upon to de vote his time and energy to avert inn pending and threatened injury to our people.
 Mark Smith was first a member of Congress curing the session 1ss7-SS and in that conTes introduced a bill providing for national aid in develop ing the water resources of Arizona. From that day to this Mark Smith has worked constantly to promote na- tional irrigation, and he has given his earnest support to e'fees:=yf eesy proposition looking to the reclamation of the arid west by the national government
 His Republican opponent, Mr. Fow- Ter. goes around over Arizona making the spacious and ridiculous claim that he Is deserving of ALL the credit for what Arizona is about to receive from the government by the reclamation of it's desert land. No credit is given to Mir. smith for his years of constant work in aicing the passage of a law through congress, by which this bene- it can be conferred.
 Mark Smiths record is one of Joy altv and steadfastness to the interests of Arizona. and whoever disputes this statement is simply ignorant of what this faithful servant has done for Ari- vona.

"The Lighthouse Robbery

The above play was put on Tuesday
and Wednesday nights at the Opera
House, and received the highest praise
and commendation from the public al
large, and especially by those who had
an eye for the stage and its beauties.
Tuesday night, of course, drew the
largest audience, and every one spoke
in very hattering terms of our local
actors and actresses.
The scene of the rescue of the little
waif by Tom, the fisherman, was be-
yond the expectation of the most crit
ical, and the play was in every way g
brilliant success, the actors and scenery
were both true to life and received re-

Letter to Gillian Bros.

ADDeVllle, >. y.
Dear sirs: "Threequarter paint" Is good
phrase for the best outside of Devoe.
Devoe is the standard; mark 1t 100. The
next-best--there are several not far apart
are three-quarter paints; you may mark them
rs to Devoe's 100.
The bulk Of the paints in market are 40 or 81
or 60; few are better than 60; a few are worse
than 40.
How do they act? They cover from one tc
three quarters as much as Devoe; and they
ast from one to three-quarters as long as De-
voc.
What are they worth? The same rule dom
tha an they are worth they are not worth
anything; the "put on" costs two or three
times as much as the paint.
Yours truly,

 Probably few farmers rssli5e the T. sx- made to introduce Indian corn for bread in Europe, OF understand the tremendous importance of the move ment to themselves. c. J. Murphy. former commissioner in Europe for the United States department of agricul- State of Iowa, has given much time and energy to this work and sends out some interesting circulars reporting progress. Corn meal-or, as it Is call- ed in Europe. corn fiour-is extensive ly used in France and Germany. espe- flour, this being one case when the adulterant instead of injuring rather improves the quality of the product. The infusion of corn meal makes the bread cheaper by 25 per cent. and very popular. as 1t Is found to be very of corn bread as we know it in this country is developing slowly but ap- parently surely, the comparative cheap ness of 1t being great recommenda- tion in the poorer and more crowded quarters of the European cities.
 The prospects are that an enormous market for corn for human consump- tion will be established in Europe, in- surfing new and steady foreign de- mand. As the orn-produeinE capacity of the United States is unlimited, there price will be increased materially es. pecially as this is one product in which there is no foreign competition and on which. therefore, congress has no excuse for piling a duty. Great for eign demand for corn for food would add enormously to our exports and to the money returns of the farms while not increasing the price of food of our own people. q

MONDAY, OCTOBER IF, IsoA.
rocALrxrNe oN RoosnvELT.

The really commanding issue in this campaign is the character of President Roosevelt. This grows plainer every day. The people are only distantly in- terssted in what becomes of the Phil ippines. They may squirm about the enormous expense of holding and at- tempting to govern the archipelago, but we very much doubt whether many votes will be affected by the Demo- cratic proposition to turn the islands loose to shift for themselves as soon as they demonstrate an ability to go 1t alone. The traiff question properly presented ought to gain votes, for the Republicans in their taxing legislation are guilty of the gross hypocrisy of putting money in the pockets of the rich manufacturers on the plea that they are guaranteeing steady and profitable employment to labor; while In fact they are diminishing the oppor- tunities for labor by narrowing and circumscribing the field in which labor may work.
 What will Roosevelt's election mean to the countEy? That is the vital aues- tion. after all. We have heard one weIl-posted man say. speaking for the laboring man at the booth. T don't care how much the big fellows steal; ! know they are stealing, but what does that matter to me? I have got something to sell. I have got labor to mfY n he lican ticket to maintain my market" It ought to be made plain to men of this kind that so far from maintaining his market his market is diminished by the tariff policy of the Republican Party; and that under a free regime, with the encouragement to develop our resources on the widest possible scale, labor would necessarily secure Q larger return, for the product would be greater. The product determines wages. always has and always will The Republicans believe in restricting the product and they pretend this Is done in the interest of the laboring man. This, to speak gently, is a lie. They are having regard for the pock- cts, not of the working man., but of the manufacturers.
 What will Roosevelt's election mean to the country? He does not know, nor does anybody else. It. is the pro- found uncertainty and doubt that hangs over him. that makes it of the last im- portance to bring the country back to looking at him as he really is; not as the quiet. peaee-loving. sensation hat ing creature he would just now have us believe he is, but as a turbulent, lawless. theatrical disturbsF in every piece of bunsiness that comes before him. The National Committee should see to it that the real Roosevelt is kept before the public. Judging him in himself and by himself, he will assured 1y be defeated.

TWO PERTINENT QUESTIONS. The Portland oregonian puts these .wo pertinent questions:

Is there any bad effect produced by lynching on the lynchers themselves? Is there any bad effects produced upon the whites of the South by the way they terroriZe the blacks and flout the Constitution?
 We pass by the obvious sectionalism of the oregonian in attempting to make the impression that all lynch ing is in the South, for that is common to Republican papers of the North, and we have reached a point where we ex- pect nothing else from that source. The intent. of course, is to make read CTS in their own section believe that no one is ever lynched north of Mason and Dtxon's Line. which is neither a just or truthful argument.
 Passing that phase of the matter, however, we are compelled to admit that neither question can truthflly be answered in the negative. That lynch ing tends to create contempt and dis regard for the law is beyond all ques- ton. No law can be persistently set aside without resulting in a gradual weakening of our respect for all law. If we bring ourselves to believe that we may Pightfully override one law we will end by disregarding others. The laws may not always be the perfec- ton of Reason" as Coke calls it, but while they are on the statute books they are entitled to respect and ob- servance. If we may lynch a man for violating a woman we may reach a point where we will lynch him for mur- der, for robbery, or for any other oe- fense. There will be no stopping place and no safety for life. The laws must be respected or civilization Is a failure.
 But there is another evil effect of Iynching that should not be lost sight of. and that is the brutalislng influ- -enes-tt must have on those who take
