ner was not in his favor and when lie admitted that he had told one story at the time of his arrest and his pre- liminary examination and another at his trial the case was as good as over.
 About six-weel1s ago Malson was an inmate of the county hospital. There was there at the same time a dying man by the name of Rudolph Letchner whom Malson and other inmates at tended. Shortly after the death of Letchner Malson was discharged from the institution and came to town. He had a post office money order for $2O which had been sent to Letchner. He tried to have it cashed at the saloon of R. L. Hayes and the proprietor was going after the money when an em- ploye told him that Letchner was dead and advised him to have nothing to do with the order.
 Mir Hayes testified that Malson had alread signed the name of Letchner to the order and also the name of Mir. Hayes to whom the order was to be transferred.
 On the stand as at the preliminary examination Malson denied this. At the preliminary examination he said tEat the signature had been written by Letchner a few days before his death. But point was made there of the fact that for several days before his death Letchner could not sit up and could not write. The signature was in a firm. bold hand. This made a new de- fense necessary so that Malson testi- fled yesterday that he had written the name of Lechner but at the request of Lechner. The name appeared i'll two places on the order but in writing the two names different kinds of pens and inks had been used. Malson explained that he wrote the first while sitting be- side Lechner on a cot and that the pen being very bad he went into the stewards office at the hospital and wrote the second signature with the office pen.
 Malson admitted that he had ore viously denied that he had written Letchner's name at all He said that when he found himself under arrest he realized that his situation was a very serious one and he believed that if he told this lie and stuck to it that would be the shortest way out of the trouble. He had told the same story to Marshal Kinney at the city jail but was induced to that by somewhat ghastly incident. He said that when he awoke and found himself in jail he heard someone in the corridor calling, Rudolph Letchner Rudolph Letchner." That was the name of the dead man whom Malson had imperso- mated and the circumstance had the effect of upsetting him.
Arizona republican., 1905-04-07

There was one witness who Malson thought could be Of service to him and that witness was loudly called and the call was repeated as is the custom but the witness did not come. He lies in the potter's field where he was tur- jed two weeks after the arrest of Nal son. His name was Pusch and to whom Letchner had bequeathed all bis earthly belongings except the post of flee money order.
 The only witnesses who testified for Malson were Steward Smith Of the hospital and an inmate by the name of Jewell. Nothing that they said Was of any service to him; on the contrary their testimony was against him in asmuch as they said that his Ittend- ance upon Letchner was desultOry and not of such an unremitting kind as to fill the dying man with such a measure of gratitude that he would give him a S20 money order.
 Malson will be sentenced on Satur- day.

 Mir. Pershing made a statement of the situation. He said that on May 1, 1903, the company had given the Inter national Trust company of Denver a mortgage or trust deed to secure an is sue Of bonds to the amount of $4O,000 bearing interest at the rate of six per cent. Ike trust deed covered all the property of the company in the Buck eye country and the conditions were that in the event of the failure by the company in any particular the bonds would fall due and the trustee could take possession. There has yet been no failure on the part of the company but on May 1 this gear interest to the amount of :1.2OO will be due and there will be no way to meet it.
 On March 31 of this year MT. Persh- ing received from the company a note for S10,00O payable on demand. The note is secured by a mortgage cover ing the property described in the mort gage of the International Trust com pany and in addition a certain fran chise and telephone line owned by the WesseX company. According to the terms of this mortgage on the failure of the company to pay the note the holder may bring suit for its cOllec- tion or he may bring suit for fore closure and may ask for the appoint ment of 2 receiver.
 It was further shown that the com pany had no surplus earnings. Every thing had gone into repairs on the property. Last August there was a

HANDLING OF DATE PALMS
Directions Concerning the Manner of
 Taking of Suckers.

The season is approaching for taking off suckers from date palms and pu- merous inquiries are being made as to the proper method. The correct meth cd is as follows:
 The soil is removed from the suck CT to a depth of about six inches or 9 foot, leaving a few inches around it undisturbed. The sucker is then re- moved from the parent plant by means of a wide chisel inserted between the two and driven nearly straight down ward in order not to gouge into the crown of the parent tree. The larger leaves are cut off from the sucker and it is placed in its new position with out disturbing the soil around it's roots. If the sucker is to be transported to any considerable distance, the roots should be wrapped with sacking to keep the soil from crumbling. Dates

Judge Kent Puts the Property Into

There was a brief hearing by Judge Kent yesterday afternoon of the appli- cation for Q receiver for the Buckeye Land and Canal company made the day before by James H. Pershing of Denver who is here in both the interest of the bondholders and of James R. Thorpe. Service in the suit had been secured the day before on Judge Aims worth, the vice president and attorney for the company. Judge AinswOrth did not resist the application.

Actually and candidIy we wouldn't.
In street vernacular. There's
nothing to it." We spent five
years 10 Washington and looked
on in the Senate and House gala
ries occasionally. There is little
life once in a while in the House,
but the Senate Chamber looks
cold enough to chill a senorita.
When Senator speaks no one
will remain on the floor to hear
him and there he stays in the quiet
of his own little desk day after
day swapping papers from the
pigeon holes, looking glum and
ancient. If anybody does happen
to break the monotony with
little ginger or a little humor, he
is promptly effaced with a digni-
fed frown. OF course there are
the diplomatic functions. That is
a little diversion, that is true.
Then there is the opportunity Of
seeing your name in the Congress
sional record as the author of
some bill. What feverish Joy
that awakensl If a fellow only
had the opportunity of furnishing
a little gaYety for the public oc-
but even that is forbid
den. Tillman tried that for sever
al years, but he was ultimately
and thoroughly squelched. He is
as dry and musty now as the bal
ance. They are all SO pesky dry
you can hear their bones crack
when they straighten up. It's a
fact, we would exchange Bob lay
lor's power of mimicry and mag
netism one week for a whole win
ter in the Senate. Bob Taylor's
efferyescent fountain of .humor
has been a greater pleasure and a
greater blessing to his people than
all there is in the life of United
States Senator.

ingmen here. Mr.. Darrah's prop
osition is set out as follows: Ev-
cry candidate for county Office is
asked to pledge p per cent of his
salary, in the event he Is elected,
payable quarterly, to a fund for
the purchase of such a clock.
This pledge is not binding on de-
feated candidates. By this means
a sufficient amount can be secured
for the clock, and clock can be
had at once upon these securities.
The following is an approximate
of salaries aud amount accruing
on the assessment:
Trustee, term ? years, salary app s4, 900
Sheriff, term years, salary app 1900
County Court Clerk, 4 years
salary approximate. .....,.... 5000
Register, years, salary app. 1000
Circuit Court Clerk, term 2 years
cdldl app ''s- ''' '''''.'' 1sNVN
Total. 600
Assessment, q per cent ....... 600
Mr.. Darrah has already secured
the signatures of several candidates
and he hopes that all will find no
objection to the plan. 1t is light
on everyone. The salaries of off
Gals are larger than these figures
denote, but this gives the minimum
amount. This places the burden
of the purchase on those who are
paid from the county treasury.
The city some time ago gave the
county the lot and courthouse
building, and we do not believe
now that it would be asking too
much Of the county officials to
make this pledge. The clock and
bell will cost six or seven hundred
dollars and it will be an improve
ment substantially benefiting
everybody in the county.

We publish this week part of a
letter from Cave j. Crockett in
reply to an article in this paper
respecting the union Of Northern
Prcsbyterians and Cumberland
Presbyterians. We omit a por-
tion of the letter purposely be-
cause it contains something con-
corning creeds. We cannot en-
terrain the proposition that Cum
berland Presbyterians don't be-
lieve in Cumberland Presbyterian
doctrine. Another section Of the
letter gives the vote of Cumberland
Presbyteries, which was 81 for
union and 81 against union, but
omits the popular vote, which
bowed majority Of 1877
Presbytors against union.
Mr.. Crockett practically admits
that Cumberland Presbyterians
will have to accept with the
union the Westminster Confess
sion. But the bone of his con
tention is that Cumberland Pres
byterians who do not wish to join
the Presbyterian Church, in the
event union is accomplished, are
boilers and as such will bring upon
themselves the condemnation of
Heaven. This is a broad assertion.
But if it were so, the entire Cum
berIand Presbyterian Church
would have been condemned al
ready for leaving the mother
church. Would he himself, if
such a thing were possible, be con-
tent to abide by the will Of the
General Assembly if that body
should vote for admission into the
Catholic Church. Not aiming to
cast aspersions 'lpon Catholicism,
we make this proposition to
counteract the term prejudice"
he has charged against our article.
10 reply to his assertion that union
is fixed, representatives from
100000 Cumberland Presbyterians
have served notice that the organ
ization of the Cumberland Presby-
terrain Church will be held intact
and that the property of the
Church viii be enjoined from con-
solidation with the Presbyterian
Church. With this all further
discussion of the matter in this
paper will be closed.

Church Union.

/ Editors Commercial: A recent
article in your paper, while not SO
intended, will have a tendency TO
prejudice Cumberland Presbyteri-
ans against the union of that
church with the Presbyterian
Church, and prejudice is a quality
that is detrimental to all who are
thus conditioned.
The union of the two churches is
beyond that stage wherein preiu-
dice will be factor For myself |
think union is best. 1t concentrates
the powers. It. like business en-
terprIses, will reduce expense of
operating the different boards
One set of officers can to advantage
handle the funds of the united
churches better than individual
boards for each church. Last year
the Woman's Board of Missions of
the Presbyterian Church handled
over four hundred thousand dollars.
The Cumberland Board had less
than thirty thousand. This illus
tration is true as TO other boards.
Again when each of US as Cumber-
land Presbyterians united with
this church we vowed to .sabide the
rules and regulations of the Cum
berland Presbyterian Church" 1t
takes loyalty to the General AS
sembly to make good Cumberland
Presbyterian, and as the General
Assembly has voted ito unite, then,
as loyal subjects. we have nothing
to do but to shoulder our banners
and march like valiant soldiers, and
he who does not do so is not loyal.
Seeding, boiling, or Withdrawals
are only the result OF undue preiu-
dice infiamed by the few misguided
ones who mistake prejudice for
principle. Seeding has ever car
ried with it punishment Adam,
rebelled and was banished. The
children of Israel who first lett
Egypt rebelled and died in the will
derness. Moses rebelled and never
reached the promised land. On the
other hand Abel obeyed and was
acceptable with God. Daniel
obeyed AMI was cared for, by Jeho-
yah. The Hebrew children obeyed
and were saved.

BOB TAYLOR ANNOUNCES.

|
Elk Governor Taylor makes a
formal announcement Of his candi
daey for the United States Senate
as follows:
ITO the people of Tennessee; 1t
has long been my ambition and hope
represent my native State in the
United States Senate.
"It is well known that / favor a
State primary, as this is the only way
to give to the voters of the common
wealth the opportunity to express
their will as to who shall represent
them in this high office. | have al
ways advocated this method, stand
ing as / do upon the fundamental
doctrine that all power is inherited in
the people.
81 therefore announce myself can
didate for the United States Senate
before the next Legislature and base
my hope for election upon the will
and wish Of my fellow-citizens, express
ed at the ballot box in direct pri-
mary. ROBERT L. TAYLOR.
So the lion is out and there are
indications of a higher tempera-
ture in Sunny Tennessee" espec-
ally when he and the crimson
crested" Senator lock horns on
the stump. Both candidates adj
vocate primary and primary it
will be, no doubt. That is the
best way to settle it. In fact it is
the only way to get anything like
a correct solution Of the affair,
and it is the only way candidates
could honestly and honorably ask
for Office. OF course we hear ii
stated by a number Of people as
their opinion that Taylor will be
an easy winner in primary. We
believe Taylor is very strong with
the masses. In fact there is no
denying the fact that if he is any
thing he is the peoples candidate,
but it is also understood that Carr
mack has the Endorsement of the
State political machinery, and that
means a great deal. Hence we
wouldn't be so sanguine about
Taylor's election. In our opinion
Taylor and Carmack are both good
material for the Senate. Our
preference was to see them both
in the Senate with Taylor in Fra
zier's place. But since that cam
not be just now, we cannot help
but believe Bob Taylor is entitled
to a term in the Senate If he wants
it. The Democrats of Tennessee
should not forget that Taylor car
ried the standard and served the
people as Governor for no other
reason In the world except to save
the State from going into the Re
publican column, and there is no
doubt in the world that he did it
when no other man in the State
could. However, if we were in
Taylor's shoes we wouldn't swap
his lecture tours and the pleasure
and emoluments derived from
them for any Office Uncle Sam has
unless it were the Presidency. |
