 development of it's mines in the i Warren district, during the last four
 years, has attracted the admiration of the mining world. While many of
 the mining enterprises in this terri
 tory have been many years in at
 tdinlng the same measure of success as that which has followed the efforts of the Michigan miners in Arizona. It must be remembered that the pioneer companies had many things to contend with which had been put ! aside by improvements in every de- partment of mining and mineral re- auction before the Calumet & Ari- zona company appeared in Arizona. But even on basis of equality in the beginning of them all the Calu- met and Arizona has scored a phenomenal success.

First National Bank
Look Out for Bad Money.

A counterfeiting scheme. giganti, s in its proportions and rich in results . which has as it's field the whole of th.
 United States, has just been nm :. earthed by the federal authorities
 A number of government secret
 service agents are now followino : clews.
 The operations of the counterfeit.
 CTS are said to extend all the way
 from New York to San Francisco
 and so far it is believed that some
 thing like 5000 has been secured in
 the larger cities of the country.
 The counterfeit is one of the best ! duplicates of the Buffalo series of slO and s2O bills which has ever come to the attention of the federal authorities. A description of the counterfeits as furnisblji by the United States secret service depart- ment follows:
 Series 1901, No. 29,5I3.972: face plate l59: back plate s7: check letter D; signed Lyo1s, register, Roberts. treasurer; portraits of Lewis and Clark.
 The front and back of the bills are pasted together, but so de.tly has the work been done that it is next to Impossible to discover anythino wrong with the money. The counter- felts are a shade darker than the genuine, while the back ruls into the seal, giving it a dingy cast.
 The operations Of the gang beoan { n New York. Thousands of the worthless bills were passed in New ork before the counterfeit was dis | 'overed. The secret service depart nent began an investigation, and - oon made matters so warm for tbe old gang of counterfeiters that they 'ere compelled to move their head uarters from Chicago.
 The next heard of them was in lncinnati. The gang had moved 1elr headquarters to that city. and - ere carrying on their operations |, 'om that point. Soor they were 'mpelled to move to Kansas City. ld rom there to Denver, from Inch Headquarters they are now cL 'odllg the southwest with the ~ uilous goods.

About Rheumatism.

There are few diseases that infiict more torture than rheumatism and there is probably no disease for which such a varied and useless lot ot reme- dies have been suggested. To say that it can be cured Is. therefore. bold statement to make. but Cham- berlain's Pain Balm, which en]oys an extensive sale. has met with great SnrceSS in the treatment of this dis ease. One application of Pain Balm will relieve the pain. and hundreds of sufferers have testified to perma- nent cures by its use.

rangers claimed all the glory of tn : arrest, and now that the case ha proven boomerang they are trvin.
 to crawl out of mighty small hole , II they were entitled to any credit
 Tor working up the case, then the,
 should assume the responsibility ot
 its failure.
 In regard to the arrest of sixty
 nine Mexicans by the rangers for
 stealing goods from the stores that
 were flooded" as alleged by Captain | Rynning, the strong regard which
 the ERA has for truth and veracity
 causes 1t to remark that Captain
 hynning Is mistaken. The ERA does not believe that Captain Rvnning would deliberately make an un- truthful statement, but the facts in the case prove that he has been mlslnformed. Nearly all of these MeXlcans were arrested for being drunk, and not for theft as stated by ! the captain. When the Chinese | store was flooded these Mexicans waded In the water to their waists and [ assisted in saving most of the goods. put as there was plenty of whiskcy Tn the store many of them became intoxicated, and no doubt several of -hem were guilty of theft, but be mat as 1t may, the fact remains that ne district attorney dismissed all of ne cases but one If tbe diStr;~+ | 'ttorney of this county could not nake out d case against them. why mould the rangers still insist that hey were guilty of theft. Hobbs i; urned the Mexicans loose for the req IT on that he had no place to put them. \ $ the Jail was flooded and he had lib . rated his own prisoners. These facts re well known to the rangers. and to Il the citizens of Clifton, and vet l. aptaln Rynning continues to put only IT. ne slae ot it to the people of Ari- o 'ha. The fact that all of the Mexi- ms appeared in court when their ~ lses were called proves conclusivelv :, at Deputy Sheriff Hobbs used good IT,, dgemnt in turning them loose on c. cir own recognizance.
 The ERA will never take execution an
 the plain performance of their WI " ny the rangers, but it does most flo lphatically take exceptions to work sp, up case of murder against SC, h whose lnnOcenSe could have been nie
The copper era., 1905-04-27

The ERA regrets that Captaih Rvnino said .'there was nothing wrong in refusing to let him see out siders and that he would do the same thing himself" Surely the captain cannot mean that because a man ls arrested that he is guilty of the crime charged, and should therefore be denied the privilege of taking with his friends. 1t is one ot the fundamental principles upon which this great government Is founded that every man charged with crime
 shall have a fair and impartial trial.
 To deny a prisoner the privilege of seeing his friends, or legal adVlser' as was done in this case, is to put m
 jeopardy the life of an innocent man.
 And in this instance the frlenos ol
 the accused were disarmed by the
 voluntary statements made by the
 rangers that Hobbs was arrested TOT
 turnjnr loose the MeXiCans. There was no occasion for this statement, , neither can there be a justification ) for if. because it was not the truth, a and the men who gave utterance to IL t knew that it was not the truth when y they made the statement pubic. Il They afterwards attempted to Justi1y
 their conduct in this matter oy
 savino that they were afraid to give
 the real cause of the arrest lest ar |, effort be made to liberate the U prisoner. Granting that they were
 conscientious in this, and ]uggle' l with the truth in order to sav'
 trouble of a serious nature, it is Ger
 tainly a serious reflection upon tn
 civilization and citizenship of tn
 people of this community. The goo " Lord knows that Clifton has ha enough, and far too much, unfavol
 able advertising during the past tw
 years as the reuzcvous of a gang (
 outlaws. without having the range , force of the territory cast sue
 serious and uncalled for reelection a+ upon the citizenship of the COT .d munity.
 Iat The citizens of Clifton as a cla JUS are dS law dbloihS "S oA> his any other community in the yves he but because they will not suffer ity great wrong to be done to a lot gar babies, or an innocent man to ger practically kidnapped and deport' CTS to a foreign country for a crln cal which he did not commit, they a the held up to the world as gang the outlaws and ruffians. Clifton peoE ce, are tired of this sort of treatmeI len It has been rubbed into them un ort they are getting sore, and especla of when it comes from a service was which they contribute most hbera hey towards its support.
 lm- So far as the ranger service Is C eVl- cerned. its usefulness in this cour ond has passed. The people have falr confidence in it, and want none or Iact All we ask is to be let alone, and not will prove to the people of Arize but that we can handle our own affa the in most satisfactory manner wi HIS out the aid or interference of tel the torial rangers.
