Senator Tillman addressed 6
large assemblags at Sandy Flat
Greenville county, on Saturday
last. He will also speak in about
twenty other counties during the
summer. His utterances upon the
liquor situation were but re.
statement of his position of a
year ago. Speaking ofthe Senator'S
Sandy Flat speech the Gree1ville
News said in part: "The people
are always glad for him to come
around and delight to hear him
express himself on various ques-
tions. but they are doing their own
thinking and they'll do their own
voting" This sizes up the situa-
tion exactly. The people are more
intelligent than they were fifteen
years ago, consequently they pay
little heed to speech making from
she stump. So many plans in the
past have fallen short of execu-
ton, so many promises broken,
SO many pledges have gone un-
fulfilled, that the masses of the
people refuse to be deceived any
longer.

eth holiness, not false accu5ers, no.
given to much wine, teachers o
good things" We learn from this
passage, Mr Editor, that, even for
women to be sin behavior as be-
cometh holiness, it is not necessa.
ry for them to abstain from the
temperate use of wine. They are
required only to abstain from
"much" wine.
The eighth verse of The third
chapter Of First Timothy is as fol-
fows: Likewise must the deacons
be grave, not douhle-tongued, not
given to much wine, not greedy OF
filthy lucre." This passage, Mr.
Editor, as well as several of the
preceding ones,w written by Paul,
the inspired Apostle. He does not
forbid the deacons to use wine tenn
perately but forbids them TO use it
Observation-Disclosures them to use
"much" wine. Is it possible for
any one to believe that, if the Apps
tie Paul had regarded the temper
ate use Of wine as sin, he would
have misled the deacons of the
church by telling them merely not
to use much wine?
We have rs our guide, however,
the words and the example of a
greater than Paul-the words anil
the example of Christ himself. We
are told, in the second chapter of
John, that Christ made wine. to be
used by the guests at wedding
feast. Not only that-he made
wine part of the supper ordained
as memorial of his death and SUI
ferings. Not only that-he tells US
that he drank wine himself.
In the thirty.third and thirty
fourth verses of the seventh chap.
Ter of Luke, Christ says: "For John
;he Baptist came neither eating
bread nor drinking wine, and ye
Jay, He hath a devil. Tue son Of
nan is come eating and drinking,

WORKED B|SBEE
Crazy Quaker Doctor Is Now Inmate of Los Angeles
 County Hospital.

Many Bisbee people will remember the Quaker doctor patent medicine combination that worked this city very successfully few years ago. Prob ably no similar aggregation ever did so much business in Bisbee or found so many people who really had faith iE their remedies. The following story from the Los Angeles Times tells of the final commitment of one of the so-called Quaker brethren" to a Cal ifornia asylum and gives a bit of his confession about how he fooled most of the people most of the time. The Times says:
 Edwin Davis. "QuaKer doctor,' is again confined at the county hospital on an insanity charge. Only two days ago he was allowed to go free by Judge Gibbs and the insanity com mission, on condition that nurse from the hospital accompany him. His friends were perfectly willing to have trained nurse, but upon reaching the home place at Long Beach the Quaker doctor" stood the nurse on his head, and otherwise playfully dal- lied with him. The man was scared out of his wits and Davis was again arrested.
 At the time of his examination Davis gave brief account of his varied ad- ventures. He started in life in the theatrical ranks as a comedian and then graduated as a countryside "ora-

OHIO CAPITALISTS
Are in the City to Make Trans fer of Property to Globe
 Consolidated.

Among the visitors in Bisbee this week who are interested in the float ing of the Globe Copper Co. are MT. Wm. Magly and MT. Eugene Sehaefer, both of Cincinnati, Ohio. Both gen tlemen are prominent in Ohio, MT. Magly at one time being a member of the Board of Public Service of Gin cinnati, and MT. Schaefer is a promin- ent rubber manufacturer. These gen. tlemen were the big stock holders of the Globe company which held the property that is now being worked by the Globe Consolidated Copper Co. and were prominent in the transfer of the property to the new company.
 These gentlemen made a trip to Bis bee last January, when the mud was knee-deep on Main street, and they fully expected to see the city in the same condition this time, but when they stepped from the train and saw the paved streets. they realized the progressiveness of the people of Bis bee. They are both personal friends of Senator Foraker. the staunch friend of Arizona, and MT. Magly said that he intended to tell the Senator that he had made no mistake when he made his gallant fight for the autono- my of Arizona.
 Mir. Magiy said to representative of the Review that in no place had he ever seen such a progressive spirit displayed as evidenced by the citizens of Arizona in the upbsilding of their territory, and that it would be a great injustice to deprive such loyal and pro gressive American citizens of the right of self-government. He witnessed the celebration at Douglas on the 4th of July, and laughed heartily when he saw in tn parade the burro with the yellow streak down his back, repre- senting Tawney, of Minnesota, the quondam friend of Arizona.
 When asked concerning the politi- cal situation in the east, MT. Magly said that it was almost certain that Secretary Taft would be endorsed by Republicans for the presidency.
 These gentlemen will remain in the city for a day or two longer, and will then leave for home. going by way of California. r

Humphries Tells of Scenes Att tending Landing of Them
 in Mexico City.

". K. Humphries. who was a bus mess visitor in the city yesterday from Fl Paso, has recently returned nom the City of Mexico. where he went to procure some characteristic photographs of that section of inc country for Golfers magazine.
 MT. Humphries was present in the Mexican capital at the time when a band of 700 Yaquis were brought in rom the outlying districts of Chihua- hua and Sonora. He tells graphically or the scenes attending the delivery of the Indians 10 the federal authorities.
 Some of the scenes" said Hum phries, were heartrending. Babes and women pleaded in their simple way for chance 10 ke kept with their relatives, but their wishes were lit- JIG needed by the authorities.
 Over TOO Yaquis under a heavy guard of soldiery were brought into the city while was there in a special train on the Mexican Central.
 Among the prisoners were many old men and women and a number of saiall children and babies.
 "A party of about forty of the 
 hercest warriors of the race were kept under heavy guard during the entire journey, and additional precau- ucns were taken when their train ar rived in the city.
 ''The prisoners will be taken in a few days to Yucatan, where they win be put to work on the haciendas with others of their race who have been sent there before them. They seemed to have stood the journey to the City of Mexico well, notwithstanding the fact that he cars in which they were brought in were densely packed with their human burden"
 Mir. Humphries left last evening for Tucson, where he goes to confer with the board of trade of that city, with which body he has the contract to pub fish a pamphlet extolling the virtues of the Old Pueblo as health and winter resort.

Colored photography appeals to all lovers of art and the beautiful. Ami mate those colors and project them upon large screen and you have the acme of perfection in this line. The internal Cave is one of the very latest and bandsomest of colored films pro- duced. It is made in France, and is of the very best workmanship. Hand colored throughout, the shades and tones, tints and hues, lose nothing in their projection. A treat for the old and a marvel for the young.
