HARRIS HERE TO
INVESTIGATE DOAN.
Secret Agent From Judiciary Depart
ment to See Local LAWYERS.

To investigate the record of Asso-
ciate Justice Fletcher NJ. Doan, of
Tombstone, J. D. Harris, a special
agent of the judiciary department at
Washington, D. c., arrived here last
week visiting the offices of local at
torneys to get their estimates of the
Arizona jurist.
Harris did not manage to see all
the lawyers, but those with whom he
did confer for the most part gave
Judge Doan an excellent recon-
mendation as to character and ability
on the bench. If Harris came to
gather material derogatory to Doan,
he did not succeed.
No efforts were made by Harris to
conceal the object of his visit. He
stated to each of the attorneys he
saw that he was here to find how
Judge Doan stood among the Bisbee
bar. He asked them questions as to
both his morality, integrity and fair
ness on the bench.
Doan's appointment is now held up,
though both Chief Justice Edward
Kent, of Phoenix, and Associate JUS
tice Richard E. Sloan, of Prescott,
whose terms expired about the same
time as Doan's, have been appointed
by President Roosevelt and confirmed
by the senate.
Against -Doan charges of immoral
ity and dishonesty were filed by At
torney Earl, of San Francisco. One
of the charges referred to an alleged
insult offered a Mexican woman at
Florence by Doan. When the woman
was called upon to substantiate
Earl's charges, she fatty contra
dicted them.-B isbee Review.

Two Cent Fare in Ohio.

The law providing for two-cent
railroad rates in the state of Ohio
went into effect and it is asserted
that all railroads in the state will
comply with the provisions OF the
law, which fixes the rate for passen-
ger transportation within the limits
of the state at two cents per mile.
The big roads have made no
change in their schedules on account
of the reduction in the rate of trans
portation, but it is understood that
some of the smaller roads will be
compelled to discontinue some OF
their trains to make up for the loss
in fares.

1t is reported that Howard
Chenowth has been arrested at Ojo
Caliente, in Sonora. OF course he
will put up stiff fight to keep from
being extradited, as he has fifty
years in the penitentiary before him,
and no further chance for an appeal
to the supreme court.-Liberal.
The celebrated case of the firing
of several of the officers of Ber-
nalillo county by the governor was up
before the supreme court last week,
and the court decided that the gov
ernor had the power to fire county
officer, and appoint a man in his
place. Governor Otero claimed he
had the legal right to do this, and
W. B. Childers, who is supposed to be
one of the leading lawyers of the
territory, said his action was entirely
illegal.

THE CHARGES AGAINST KIBBEY
Reported That Hildreth, Receiver of
Land Office, DOine the Knocking.

A dispatch from Phoenix dated
March 9th says there is no longer
any doubt that charges have been
filed with the secretary of the In
terror against Governor J. H. Kibbey
of Arizona. Dwight B. Heard, who
recently returned from Washington,
D. c., where he was representing the
Arizona Anti-Joint Statehood League
is said to have reported to Governor
Kibbey that the charges were filed
against him by Fen S. Hildreth, re-
ceiver of the United States Land
Office of Arizona.
Concerning the charge that Kibbey
is acting as counsel for the Salt
River Valley Water Users Associa-
ton, your correspondent learns that
he is and the salary is $4,000 year.
Concerning his connection with the
firm of Kibbey, Bennett & Bennett.
1t is learned that Judge Kibbey
formed a partnership with Walter
Bennett and Frank Bennett here just
prior to his appointment of Gov
ernor. The firm of Bennett C Ben
nett had been formed only a few
days before by Walter Ben
nett taking his son into partnership.
The first charges filed against the
governor were made last fall and he
learned of them at the time. 1t was
shortly after the eventful meeting of
the board of Equalization and it is
understood the governor believed the
Copper Queen Mining company was
behind the charges. The Phoenix
Enterprise openly charged Manager
Walter Douglas with trying to in
fiuence the governors removal. Mr..
Douglas denied that any such step
had been taken by him or any one
connected with the company. He
was in the city at the time attending
a session of the supreme court at
which the now famous mining cases
were being tried. 1t was charged
that the attempt to have the gov
ernor removed was due to his action
in connection with the meeting of
the board of equalization on August
5. 1t is noteworthy that since that
date suits filed in the courts here by
the firm are signed Bennett & Ben
nett.
In 1904 the Buckeye canal was
wrecked and the dam destroyed.
causing much loss to the farmers
hereunder. They planned to bring
suits against the company for a to-
tai of about $4,000. Some of these
suits were filed in the fall of 1904,
but for some reason there was con-
siderable delay in getting the bal
ance of them into court. They were
not filed until after Judge Kibbey's
appointment. The suits filed in the
fall of 1904 were by Judge Kibbey
and E. w. Lewis as counsel, and
those filed after the governors &C
cession to the chair of Brodie, were
signed Kibbey, Bennett 81 Bennett
and E. w. Lewis. Judge Kibbey has
never appeared in open court since
his appointment. All his cases were
handled by Walter Bennett.

TEACHER SUDDENLY DISAPPEARS.
E. c. Price, Principal Of SOlOmOnViIle
Schools, Departs Without Leaving
Address.

Solomonville was thrown in the
greatest excitement and indignation
last Monday when it became known
that Prof. Price, Principal of the city
schools, had left the day before for
parts unknown. To add to the in
dignation was the fact that our citi-
zens had upheld Price last year in d
most bitter school fight and had
stood by him faithfully during the
term.
The story of the mans downfall
and final fight dates back to about
the first of the year. 1t seems that
early in January at the Teachers
Institute Price met lady teacher,
with whom he became infatuated
Although knowing him to be a mar
ried man, the woman permitted his
attentions until the affair grew into
a public and notorious scandal.
School superintendent Moody en-
deavored to break off the affair, but
both Price and the woman declared
that they were only mere friends"
On last Thursday Mr.. Moody brought
Price that his resignation would be
demanded if he visited the woman
again. Friday evening Price again
went to Central and remained there
till Saturday when he returned to
this place. Saturday evening he was
seen in Solomonville for the last
time.
Sunday evening County Clerk Carl
ton brought word to town that he
had seen Price that day at Lords
burg, N. M. Price admitted that he
was in love with the woman and he
visited her Friday night, and know
ing the consequences of such a visit
had left before his resignation could
be demanded. He said he did not
know where he was going, but did
not think his wife would let him live
with her again. He had but $35 with
him.
1t is learned that Price and the
woman had planned to elope at the
close of their schools and go to Mex
leo, and it was to check this move
that Superintendent Moody gave
Price his ultimatum last Thursday.
In the meantime friends had noti-
fed Mrs. Price, who was at Tomb
stone working to assist her husband
financially, of the situation here and
advised her to return. On Monday
evenings train the young wife, with
her year-cld boy, arrived only to
learn that she was deserted by the
man for whom she had worked so
hard and suffered so much. She is
broken hearted, and in her blind love
refuses to believe else but that he is
mentally deranged. On the follow
ing morning she returned to Tomb
stone in the hope that Mr.. Price
would be there. Her clinging faith
in the man she loves is most pathetic.

Japan TO Own All Railroads.

The passage by the imperial diet of

foregoing is the latest modification,
is believed to be assured. Financiers
figure that the lines will be about
S25O,0O0,O00, which naturally will
largely increase taxes until the earn
ings of the roads can be applied to
reducing the burdens. The Cabinet
is not in accord on the question, and
the resignation of Count Kato, the
