They Tell Us

we are going to have presidential
election next fall. Well, dts going 20
be red hot fight because if Hearst IS
nominee he's "a newspaper man and
we all know how much confidence the
public put in that class. 1t Parker
is a nominee he is a judge and we all
have our opinion las to how lawyers
and Judges twist and tangle the
laws SO TO gain their point So much
for the judge But Theodore Roose-
lveit has been and is a politician; not
only that but hes a rough rider and
before the polls close on election night
next fall he'll be after having about
as rough ride as he ever had in his
life Well, IL President Roosevelt
has had rough rides, We consider them
only q trif1e compared to the rough
ness some people are compelled to go
through. For instance when the
housekeeper buys a pound of Tea or
Coffee and serves it morning, noon
and night. she thinks she's doing her
duty. Well, if she buys at our store
she runs no risk, but If she doesn't
then she is liable to be serving poor,
trashy drinks and certainly its pretty
rough on people who are compelled to
sit down to three square meals per
day and be obliged TO drink bad tast-
ing stuff when they could just as well
have the good, nice tasting kind for
the same price if purchased at our
store IF you want to make the boys
happy we have a nice line Of base
balls and bats at
Phelan's T. Store.

Fight for Liberty

At $ clock yesterday morning des- perate break for liberty was made by dozen convicts in the territorial prison, lead by "Three Fingered Jack" the Mornci riotcr. Superintendent Grif filth and Assistant Wilder were in the yard when they were surrounded by the convicts who were armed with knives, heavy blacksmith files and clubs. The convicts were in two squads, one seizing Mir. Griffith with the intention of taking him to the gate and demanding the keys under penalty of death, while the other squad expected to put MT. Wilder ont of business by knocking him down and ty
 ing him with small rope The officers fought desperately, but would soon have the heroic work of the prison cook, w. C. Buck, who came to the rescue with a long carving knife which he wielded with good effect upon his fellow con victs Before the arrival of Convict Buck Mir. Wilder was knocked down and severely cut and bruised. While Buck was fighting like demon against great odds, holding his own but sure to lose in the end, Mir. Griffith called to Guard Stevens on the wall to shoot. Mir. Stevens fired three charges of buck shot into the mob of battling convicts and the fight was over.
 While Mir. Wildcr's injuries are quite serious, his physician, Dr. ketcherside, does not consider his condition danger ous at present Five of the couvicts were injured more or less; Buck, who forght for the officers, perhaps the most seriously, but All have good chance for recovery Yuma Suu.
