PUSHING THE FAIR PROJECT
Hon. ]. :. Stoddard Returns From
the Hills on Business.

Hon. Isaac T. Stoddard who has
been spending a month in the Yavapai
hills at famous Stoddard mining camp,
returned to Phoenix yesterday morn
ing for a short stay. His coming was
for the single purpose of giving the
territorial fair enterprise a further
push forward by attending to such
matters as required his joint deliber-
alton with other members of the board.
He was seen yesterday by a Republi-
can representative and after impera-
lively refusing to be interviewed, told
a number of things that it appears
will do no hurt to print.
lie said the board was in either ex-
CcutiVe or public session nearly all
day yesterday That is a large part
of the day was spent in visiting the
grounds inspecting the progress of the
work and chasing round town on this
mission or that. The rest of the after
noon was spent in conference which

a figure in the contest, but what with
running and breaking, he headed both

was rather a questionable victory The

CHAPPO'S STATEMENT
Is a Good Prisoner and Says Did not
Shoot Wight.

The work of erecting the gallows
for the hanging of Esperano Heredia.
! better known as ChappO, was in pro-
gress when the news OF his short re-
prieve reached the Tombstone Jail
/ Concerning the prisoners side of the
story the following statement made by
the condemned youth is reprinted from
the Tombstone Prospector;
The condemned man is a mere
youth of nineteen years. speaks Eng
lish fairly well and bears a frank
cOuntenance that would not indicate
capability of committing such grave
crime as that with which he is charg-
ed, the particulars of which are famil-

interview substantially as given by
HeI edia:
Ny name is Esperano Heredia. as
is also my father, for whom I am nam
ed. am the youngest of five chill
dren, and will be 20 years old on the
18th of next September. I have al
ways worked hard, but have led an
honest, upright life. Like the major
ity of young men working in mining
camps, have drank some, vet never
did an act that would injure another.
and still 1 am condemned to die for
a murder I never committed. I am
innocent When Mr. Wight was kill
ed I was in bed and the shooting
awoke me. My life is dear to me,
as I am young and healthy. and desire
to live. but 1 never was a coward and
if there is no remedy and l must die
for this crime l never committed
can and viii die like a man.
I am told Governor Kibbey is a
humane, merciful man, and has said
he has no power to commute my sem
tence, but would do so if he could
comply with the law. 1 pray to God
he may see his way clear to save my
life
