THE RECORDERS
 DEPUTIES AND Something About Sal= aries and Earnings. The Records Show Profit of Seven- ty-Eight Dollars in
 Nine Months.

We notice that tho Journal Miner, the openly declared republican paper of the city, has something to say ts the effect that Recorder Mosher will go to Phoenix to lobby for bill in creasing the salaries of deputy record CTS from s75 to s10O a month. th.-Courier. Either Intentionally or otherwise the above conveys a false impression of what the Journal Miner had to say on the subject referred to.
 The Journal Miner said that the an- nouncement was made that Recorder Mosher intended to go to Phoenix for the purpose named.
 Ths announcement was made in an 'openly declared democratic paper'' and if 1t was not correct the Journal Miner was not responsible for it.
 The Courier further says that ''Re- corder Mosher informed us that he had no intention of going to Phoenix to do anything of the sort, and had not So said'' which the Journal Miner is pleased to note and publish.
 The aforesaid paper then makes a strong appeal for raise in the salar ies of deputy county recorders and quotes the receipts of the office for i last year as an argument in favor of it.
 The Journal Miner believes that the laborer is worthy of his hire, but also believes that the truth will hurt no one or at least it should not.
 The business of the recorders office for the month of January 1904 was ex- ceptionally heavy for the season that during that month the Santa Fe Paci- fic development company filed a large number of relinquishments to land embraced in the Atlantic and Pacific land grant. Specially printed books containing the form of relinqulshment were purchased by the county for re- cording these instruments so that only very small amount of work was in- volved in the recording.
 This extra business for January run the fees received by the office during the first quarter to an exceptionally large amount. It was business that was never experienced by the office and may never be again.
 By deducting the first quarter, which is abnormal, from the income of the office for the year and taking the in- come for the last nine months of the year, it is found that it amounts to s4560. 40.
 The office force was practically the same during the year and the total expense for the year was S5, 979 O or an average of s49S per month, which for the last nine months would amount to s4, 4S2 or SIS less for the nine months than the receipts of the office.

FATHER GOPON'S ADVICE.
By Associated Press.


 ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 24.-It is not known definitely whether Father Gopon, the leader of the Torkmen is in Moscow or St. Petersburg. The proclamation said to emanate from him has been distributed indicating that he had gone over body and soul to the social democrats. The procla nation authorizes men to use bombs, 5nyamite and other weapons and in vites the students to join, and ab- solves the soldiers from the oath of fealty. The destruction of government property is recommended, but it re- quests the men to spare private prop erty and ransack only the shops con- taining arms and victuals, and urges all to continue the fight until they succeed in obtaining national assem- bly. 2

This would give a profit of little over s6 per month or little more than s1. 50 per month for each deputy.
 Now to contrast this with the re- corder's office of Coconino county, where we are told that Recorder Hib- ben made profit of over SIP, 900 for the county or a little over s, GOO per year without employing deputy at the expense of the county. And dur ing portion of this period. during his leisure time, when not busy in the recorder office. as sort of avocation he acted in the capacity of clerk of the board of supervisors.

Friend Of Car Says
War Between Russia
And England Is SURE

Wilkesbarre, Pa, March 20.-The
Very Reverand Father Alexis 10th
Of this city, who is personal friend
OF the Gar end In close touch with
Russian affairs, declares that, II
peace proposals now emanate with
Japan, they may be accepted BY the
Gear in order that other affairs Of
greater magnitude may be taken up
without hindrance.
He believes that u great war with
England is inevitable, and that 1t
will be fought in Aighanistan and
India This war, he expects, in the
near future, and says when it takes
place Russia will be free from other
entanglements.
One Of the reasons why peace with
honor would be accepted, he says, is
the unpopularity Of the war with
Japan, the people feeling that 'ht
outcome ia not OF material differanct
while all the energy Of the nation
would be centered upon q war with
England.
Father 10th says that KuropatkiI
is an old woman, lacks aggressive
ness and while great as an organizer
is not a great fighter. He declares
that the next great battle will be {
naval battle and on its outcom,
hangs the fate OF the war. II Russit
is defeated he expects the war to ent
speedy.
