A HOT AIR FIDDLER.

A HOT AIR FIDDLER
 Of all the hot air" peddlers tha ever struck Arizona the Bisbee Even ing Miner under it's present manage ment. is entitled to the high prize
 That paper is always just about t, do something wonderful. but somehow or other, the wonders promised ir it's columns never come to a realiza ton in fact More than a year agc the Miner announced that it would issue on January 1. 1905. the greates; publication. in the way of a regular newspaper ever turned out in Arizo- na; it was to be illustrated by the Miners Special Artist; and extensive canvass was made and announcements were run from day to day and from week to week about how all previous efforts Of other papers in telling the story of the progress of Arizona, and Bisbee in particular, was to be over shadowed. Now one year has passed since this wonderful newspaper pro- duetion was promised. but it has not been issued and for many months it has never been mentioned by the Miner
 Next came the greatest thing ever conceived by any newspaper man on earth-;he publication of an after noon Sunday paper Greedy. Pulitzer. Hearst. Otis and other successful newspaper men were to be shown that in overlooking the afternoon Sunday paper they had overlooked the real thing in the newspaper industry. The Miner was published on Sunday after moons for couple of months and then the sign of prodiGiousness was pulled down and the Miner eased back to earth from it's remarkable and transeendent flight
 Another notable feat of the Miner 'hot air merchant was when he went 10 Cananea and for few weeks posed as editor of the Cananea Herald. Ac- cording to announcement, paper had been ordered by the car load. linotype machines had been shipped and it seemed for a few days that all the newspaper enterprise and ability in the Republic of Mexico was to be cen tered in Cananea. For a time it looked Hke the guiding power of our sister republic had been transferred from inc City of Mexico to the office of the Herald in Cananea. But pretty soon both the Herald and Miner simulta- neously demanded the scalp of the Mexican official in charge of the GUS tom house in Naco, Sonora. He was painted as the most unsightly beast that ever held authority in any land or country The visible result of this violent demand for the official scalp of this Mexican official, renown- ed for his gentiemanly courtesy as well as his official honor and integrity, was that the Cananea Herald passed 10 a new management and President Diaz still holds the reins of govern ment in Mexico, while Semple ex- ploits other blackmailing and grating schemes on this side ofIthe line.
 Recently the Miner has been ped ding it's ''hot air" to the PEOPLE THE DEAR PEOPLE and trying to create the impression that every body in Bisbee who received the support ct those connected with the Copper Queen Mining company were puppets and ordered and driven by the man sgers of that company as slave driv- CT. with bull-whip, drove the black man before the rebellion. Still 1t is well known that when D. w. Semple secured the Miner it was with money advanced by his friends who are well up in the Copper Queen circles. With one hand this brazen-faced hypocrite reaches to the Copper Queen people for help and patronage and with the other hand he carries a dagger for the purpose Of assassination in trying to stir up strife, endeavoring to make the working men of Bisbee believe that they are being trampled under foot by a soulless corporation and by those who would stand by the Copper Queen because of the excellent labor conditions it has promoted and main. tained in Bisbee. The Bisbee Miner would teach the people that whoever receives the favor of the Copper Queen is a contaminated and loath- some being and whoever assaiIed the Copper Queen should rank in the line of virtue Those who have read the rsviaGs of this sheet about the Cop per Queen will remember with what
