FIFE Phoenix papers have an- nounced that John H. Page, of Coco nino county will be appointed audi tor of Arizona to succeed Wesley Hill on or about January 1st. As auditor MT. Page will be chairman of the territorial board of equalization, MT. Page has always been considered as q railroad man. His father is a large shareholder in the Santa Fe railroad. As member of the terri torial legislature it is said that he always stood pat for the corporation interests. As chairman of the board he will be in position to see that the ridiculous assessment as placed on the railroads will not be in terfered with. His appointment to such an important position can only be considered as strengthening the firm grip which the railroads already have upon the board. With such board there can be no hope that the railroads will ever be assessed at more than nine per cent. of their commercial value, while the unpro- ducing mines are assessed at many times their actual value.

THE general sentiment of the people of the east end of the county seems to be in favor of county divi- sion, though there are not few who favor. the removal of the county seat. The east end will be compelled to pay about five-sixths of the taxes, and therefore is entitled to the con veniences of a county seat. Anyhow the people who pay the taxes are tired of making trip of one hundred miles every time they have business at the county seat.

THE ERA was mistaken. last week in its statement that the territorial board had increased the rate on inn provements of mining companies one hundred per cent. The statement was printed in the Phoenix papers, and was supposed to be correct at the time it was printed in the ERA. How ever, Charles Solomon, member of the board from this county, made such strenuous effort on behalf of the miners that the proposed raise was finally dropped.

The base ball game Sunday be- tween the Clifton and Morenci second hines was not what was expected by the players. On account of the game not being advertised to any great extent, the crowd was very small indeed and naturally the boys felt as though they had been turned down and as result did not feel like putting up much of q game. It was a fve-dollar crowd and d score of 16-6 plainly indicates that it was a fve-dollar game. With the above score the Morenci seconds carried away the victory and went home re-
 ioicing. The trip by stage is well worth victory and the visitors got nothing more than they were en- titled to. The ,line-ups were as fol- lows: Morenci-Yoakley, C: Rankin, D: Moon. 1b: Malone, 2b: Crittenden, s.s: Williams, 3b: Cleaveland, If: Whatley, Of; Roscoe, If. Clifton Dunn, C: Danenhauer, 2b; Hunter, p: Hedrix, 1b; Longwell, s.s: Stevens. 3b; Rosecrans. If: Fitzgerald, Of: Seigal. If. The line-ups were not bad but the playing was poor, es- game started with Clifton in the field. Stevens was put into the box for Clifton, and while he had speed and curves he lacked control and after the third inning Hunter left third and took the slab. Well, he pitched pretty good ball, but Dunn could not hold him and the visitors were allowed to cinch the game. After a couple more innings had been played Mac Kline was pot into

Notices have recently been posted in conspicuous places around Clifton offering a reward of $2O0 for the ar rest and conviction of cattle thieves anywhere in the territory. The re- ward is offered jointly by the live stock sanitary board and the Arizona Cattle Growers association. This will probably be the means of many convictions and at the same time will be of great interest to the cat tlemen ot Arizona, who have always been bothered more or less with rus tiers. Heavy fines and severe pun ishmeut will also help some.

A TRIO OF
 BOLD BURGLARIES.
Two Saloons and Wallace's Jew elry Store Broken Into By Unknown Burglars Thurs
 day Night.

Three burglaries in one night is the latest record in local crimi- nal annals, the saloons of w. R.. O'Neal and J. B. Doherty & Com pany and the jewelry store of R. c. Wallace having been bur- glarized early Friday morning, between midnight and 4 o'clock.
 Entrance was effected at each place by breaking in at the rear and there are no clues by which the crooks can be run down un- less later through the disposal of the stolen goods.
 Wallace is the heaviest loser, about $35 worth of small jewelry being taken, though Bevens stock was not touched.
 At Doherty's a pistol and a few bottles of whisky were taken and a handsome cash register al- most ruined, for it had been left locked, though containing no cash.
 w. R. O'Neal lost about $6.5O in cash, a Colts revolver and two quarts of whisky.

FORGERS WORKING
 IN ARKANSAS.
Raising Money Orders for Small Amounts to Considerable gures-Department is
 Investigating.

The postofice department is engaged at present in trying to secure the arrest of two men whose work has been reported from various sections f the coun- try, but whose latest field of operations is Arkansas. They are engaged in raising postal money orders from small sums to considerable figures and then passing them upon merchants and hotel keepers.
 On January 4, 1905, two orders were purchased for 50 cents each at Little Rock, drawn on Benton, Ark, by J. G. Jackson payable to Greg w. Jackson. A few days later one of these orders, changed to $26.90, the erasure having been made by acid, was cashed by w. A. Thompson, a hotel man at Benton.
 The best description of the forger is that he was 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighing about 160 pounds and apparently 25 years of age. His face was rather dish-shaped, but full and smooth shaven and he wore a dark coat and vest, light trousers with black felt hat of broad brim. He is thought to have a light com plected accomplice of about the same age and build and both are fairly we'll dressed and pass for brakemen.

PASTOR GRAHAM
 SUES STEWARDS. Methodist Minister Follows Up Vindication With Libel Suit
 Against His Flock.

Pocahontas, Jan. 19. Circuit court is in session here with one of the heaviest dockets for years. There are several very import ant cases, among them being three murder, trials.
 Rev. A. c. Graham has filed a libel suit against F. c. Kline and J. c. Miller, two stewards in the Methodist church. This grows out of a church trial and suspen- sion of MT. Graham here last spring.
 The case was carried before the White River conference at Augusta in November and result ed in an acquittal for MT. Graham. MT. Graham was then transfer red to the Little Rock conference and now has charge of a church at Dewitt. He has also filed a damage suit against the stewards in this church. Both cases will come up tomorrow.

IN SOCIETY,".
MILITARY EUCHRE PARTY.

The Vaccinations of military euchre were thoroughly enjoyed Thursday afternoon by a long list of the matron and young lady friends of Mesdames w. w. Dut- ton and Gus Graham at the home of the former.
 The delights of the game were enhanced by the efforts of the receivers, whose gracious hospi- tality made each guest feel per- fectly at home and free to enjoy whole-hearted the pleasures of the afternoon.
 Military euchre is conceded by all to have it's charms and arouse enthusiasm where interest in other games might lag, and the playing upon this afternoon was spirited throughout. As remem- brances of its pleasures the hold CTS of one fort carried away handsome trophies of conquest, Mrs. T. E. Morrison being awarded a china cup and saucer; Mrs. w. A. O'Neal, china plate; Mrs. J. H. McHugh, silver pickle fork; Mrs. H. o. Walker, bon bon spoon.
 This is one of those homes where the guests anticipate dainty refreshments, by reason of an enviable reputation, and they could not have been a whit disappointed in the elegant lunch con of turkey, hot rolls, oysters, coffee and frozen cranberry punch.
 The hOstesses were assisted in keeping account of the progress of the game by Misses Franchelle and Elise Hooker.

AGED CARRIER
 DROPS DEAD.
Campbell Robinson, an Aged Mail Carrier on Grubbs Route, Falls Dead in Newport
 Postofice.

Campbell Robinson, probably not far from 70 years of age, a white haired mail carrier on the Newport-R e m m e Bennington Hale-Grubbs route, dropped dead about 1 o'clock Friday, while ty- ing a parcel of mail in the New port postofice.
 He was standing to the rear of the tables, when he suddenly fell. Dr. Jones happened to be in the office at the time and hurried to him. The heart beat a few more strokes and life ceased. Death was attributed to heart failure.
 Coroner Harrison was here, but an inquest was not deemed n e c e sary. The deceased had given no i n d c a t i o n that he was feeling badly prior to his fall.
 He leaves a wife and three children, Arthur, Herbert and Gertrude, whose home is at Grubbs, where the remains will be taken for burial.
 He had been a faithful ana efficient carrier and was we'll known in Newport. His place was taken by a substitute for the return trip to Grubbs.
