GRAHAM COUNTY
 WATER LITIGATION
The Great Blanket Suit Reached the
 Supreme Court Yesterday.

The case of the SmithviHe Canal company against the Oregon Canal company and others. from Graham county reached the supreme court yes terday on an appeal taken by the Mon tezuma Canal company, one of the de- fendants.
 This suit is in many respects like that of Hurley against Abbott and others in this county. It embraces practically all of the irrigation com panies and water users of the upper Gila valley. There are some twenty three companies interested in it.
 The object of the appeal is not to secure a new trial or to supersede the judgment of the lower court, but to secure certain notifications of it on the ground that very important fact affecting the appellant was overlooked in the decree.
 The appellant and the San Jose Ca nal company are two of the oldest ir- rigating canals in that part of the country. Some years ago their inter- ests were found to be in conflict and injunction proceedings were instituted by the Montezuma against the San Jose. The result of the proceedings was an order giving the Montezuma a preferential right in thousand inches of water.
 The decree in the last suit fixes the status of all the parties involved. es- tablishes their priorities and provides for the appointment of a water com missioner at salary of s15O a month to carry out the order but no account was taken of the right which the Mon tezuma company had secured in the former injunction proceedings.

IF ONE THINGS FALSE

 From May Be False.

It pays to be square with customers. The most valuable asset a merchant can have is the confidence of the pub lie. Mention has been made of the great demand for Navajo bracelets which kas been created by Balke's Big Curio store, mainly by proving that the bracelets were actually made by the Indians of pure silver. and that they were not made in Mexico Of German silver, in imitation of the work of the Indians which has become so popular throughout the country.
 Previous to the exposure by the Big Curio store of the fraud, many of these imitation bracelets had been sold, and many of the purchasers have discarded them. No lady, if she knows it. will be caught wearing a cheap. bracelet of German silver whose ornamental en- graving has been stamped on with steel die.
 Several persons have called at the Big CuriO store to satisfy themselves whether they were wearing the false or the true, and all who are still in doubt are invited to come and be sat isfed. Now that short-sleeved dresses are so much worn these fake bracelets, if they happen to be fake, loom up par tiCularly conspicuously and excite the mirth of the initiated
 Ii is well enough to look into this lit- tie matter of bracelets. It will give a line on the character of the seller of limitations. for one who will palm off the imitation Mexican work for the genuine Indian work will resort to oth- CT fraud which win entail a much more

Watchers Sent to Panama.

DIR. Pablo Arosemena, DIR. Eusebio A.

Forras prominent citizens of Panama, ar
rived at New York yesterday on the Ali
ance on a political mission. They have
come as a committee of the liberal party
in Panama to ask this government to ap-
point men to insure a fair election in the
little republic.
DR.. Arosemena denied yesterday that he
styled himself the vice president of the re.
public Il am only the first nominee who.
in case of the absence or death of the presi-
dent. Is entitled to succeed him." said he.
Il was the first chairman of the last con-
vention and a member of the directo-
rate of the national liberal party. I come
simply as citizen Of Panama"
Or. Arosemena explained that the cleo
ton for members Of the municipal council
will be held June "a and for members of
the assembly July /. There Is no ALL
a considerable part of the conservatives
against the government, which, not through
Its president, but its agents and organs, 1t

an honest election. They have published a
story that we tried to incite revolution
We have never uttered word about revo-
luton and we believe In peace
THE situation Is not like your contests
between political parties. 1t Is a contest
against government in which there is no
justice. In great many districts their
registration boards register the names of
all the government opposition. Their boards
OF registration sit only two hours on Sun

SULLIVAN OUT FOR BRYAN.
Says Croker Will Lead New York
Delegation for Him.

Representative Timothy ID. Sullivan Of
New York is convinced that William J.
Bryan will be the next democratic nominee
for President and that he will be elected
Before departing for New York from Hot
Springs. Ark. Saturday night he said:
Some Of those fellows back home that
were berating Bryan and calling him a
demagogue few years ago viii have to
change their tunes. / told them that they
would be singing on the other side of their
mouths within few years. Now see where
we are. The whole democracy realizes that
Bryan is the only man who can lead them
to victory. He is the most conservative and
the sanest and most sensible leader we
have, and the people trust him and want
him. Why, out here in the southwest they
are simply clamoring for Bryan just as
they did In 1900.
"Tammany Will fall in line to man and
New York will send solid state delegation
for Bryan to the national convention, head
ed by Richard Croker. who remarked after
the last convention that If he ever attended
another he wanted to go TO vote for Bryan.
The east is getting stronger for Bryan every
day.
bryan has kept his head in all the try
ing times the country has gone through in
the last few years. With exposures of COR
porate corruption and scandal every
hand he has not once gone off half-cocked.
He has made no play TO the galleries. He
stands still for the Constitution and the
equal rights of all and equal justice
for all men under the flag.
Some of the men who were telling us q
few years ago that Bryan was dema-
gogue the very ones who are now
lodging and trying to keep out of the PEN
itentiary. The people are getting onto the
fact that Bryan has been telling the truth
all the time. He simply few years
to give him a tough reputation have all
they can do now to defend their own"
