Forger Rapier's
 Trail of Crime

Rapier, the forger now incarcerated
 in the county jail at Tombstone, is as
 untiuthful and vicious as is he dis honest. He attempted to duplicate
 8 government official at Roosevelt in
 his crime, but upon investigation the
 accused was found to ne innocent. The
 itinerary of Rapier, as carried out, is
 as follows:
 Secret service officers have followed
 Rapier from the date he left Roose- welt, August %, until he was arrested at Bisbee two weeks ago. The first stop he made was at Globe, one Sep tember l. With a stop of day or SO in the towns in the order named he visited Clifton, Morenci, Albuquerque, Socorro, N. M., Fl Paso. Los Angeles, Goldfield, New, Ogden, Utah, San Francisco, Tombstone, Benson and Blsbee. In all of the towns named he cashed cheeks. They ranged from $S0 to sl0O each, such amounts being about the pay of the average govern ment employe. They were all en- dorsed "pay for the month of August" and in many instances were signed with the forged name of Dr. E.C. Lind, who was formerly the disburs- ing agent at Roosevelt. In other cases the name IS. Blach" was used. Most of the cheeks Rapier made pay lble to himself. while in other in Itances he used the name of a confed. 'ra,e and the confederate presented md cashed the forged checks.

The Del Monte
 a Model Restaurant

The Del, Monte Cafe is the new
 name of the popular Tombstone resta,
 ur.nt conducted by Mrs. Grace B.
 Lawry. The name of the Can Car
 which for many years h,s cluDg to this famous hostlery will be dropped and give place to the more euphonious title of Del Monte Cafe. Mrs. Lawry is an experienced restsuranteur having for years catered to an exacting and fastidi us public, winning for herself a deserved and enviable reputation for culinary service. The Del Monte will continue to be noted for this much-to- be desired feature that has character ized the same capable management in Tombstone before and is an assurance to its patrons that the best service and attention is always theirs.
 The Del Monte is equipped with the most modern kitchen utilities, whIl, the dining room is a model oi neat ness and cleanliness. First-class cooks and attentive and courteous ~siters are numbered among it's employ ees, and the ann of the management ,o see that all patrons receive the be.t % eat and cooked as they want it, is . policy we'll established and strictly Idhered to, ]

Good Work of
 County Democracy

APOh sAiS VI VI I | campaign. It's approach has been looked eagerly forward to by many, while quite few were reconciled to existing conditions, apparently con tent to permit the ginger bot tie to forever remain sealed. But a wise passage of law provides that the servant give an account of his stewardship every two years, and in accord ance with an ancient custom Cochise County Democracy ! assembled in Tombsto ne yes terday for "bi-annual stock taking" and conferring hOnors upon deserving aspirants
 Democracy was never more united than at the present, the unanimity of sentiment and the noticeable absence of friction giving to the nom mating convention the semb- lance of a family reunion rather than a political gather ing.
 In no other country u"ier the sun does political freedom exist in an equal ratio with the :privileges vouchsafed in these United States. Ari- zona Democracy fully appre- ciates that boon, and poses as an organization to perpetuate that sentiment and strengthen
 in the mind nf the youth a
 patriotic fervor that will re- dound to the iurtherance of d government for the people and by the people, Yester-
 days convention was note
 worthy in that there were nc
 political bosses; the respective
 primaries had concluded theiI
 work, the unit prevailing ill
 most instances, tn .reby dis.
 posing of business as rapidly
 as nominations came up, the
 naming of candidates being a
 mere formality, the few con-
 tests being of such a friendly
 nature as to scarcely claim at-
 tention. k. s. Hunt and
 Del V. Lewis, sheriff and ex
 sheriff, respectively. wer. con- testants before the pr maries, and the former having secured d majority of the delegates
 Mir. Lewis vita a becoming grace withdrew his candidacy and Mir. Hunt was unani- mously nominated for sheriff. Another contest that termi- mated friendly was that be- tween County Treasurer J N. Gaines and County Recorder Frank Hare, the latter aspir- ing to succeed the former. It has been said of MT. Hare tlat he is a polished polit elan, meaning, we presume, that he is a gentleman under any and I all circumstances, a fact that points him out as an uncom- promising Democrat, devoid of chicanery and devoted to the methods that preserve ones integrity. Finding that MT. Gaines had been more active among the primaries than himself, he withdrew his can- didacy, thereby facilitating | matters and erinitting his opponent to be nominated by | exclamation for County Treas. urer.
 Aswe have said, there was but little contest, but when such stalwarts as Ben Goodrich and
