and losses grew strong again, he went on hotly.
 For five years that Dutchman was on our payrolls, drawing his thousand a month. Why, I treated him like a brother, Potter He was chairman of the committee on franchises, and it was his business to bury everything that was calculated to make us any trouble. Eighteen months ago the Pub lie Gas company franchise was intro duced in the council. It went to Hoe fields committee. and there it slept. We thought it was out of the way for good and all. And didn't we have a right to think so? Then one day Hoe feld-the sneak-came down to our of flee and held us up for an extra thou sand. That same evening he called up the Public Gas ordinance for passage. suspended the rules and rushed it through, with more than two-thirds of the council voting in it's favor"
 Where were the rest of your fellows in the council?' asked Peter Potter.
 "Hoefeld had bought 'em all up-the traitors. He'd corrupted every one of 'em-men we'd been paying our good money to for months and months. l tell you, MT Potter politics in this country is just absolutely rotten
 'Why didn't you fix the mayor?"
 I've did. And then Hoefeld damned the ordinance through the council over the mayors veto"
 Who's backing the Public Gas com pany?'
 "Hoefeld's backing it," said the little gas president, beating the desk with his fist. 'HOefeld and his gang of crooked aldermen They're backing it with our money. too! With the very cash we paid them out of our earn ings,"
 Tomiinson was almost with indig- nation.
 Think of it. Potter" he said appeal | ingly. Heres a man we've paid more than fifty thousand dollars in the last i five years. l always thought he was a good, straight, square. honest fellow. Even after he got his ordinance passed I offered to buy it from him at a good stiff price. He laughed at me and in suited me: shook his fist in my face
Arizona republican., 1906-10-21

and said I was just as big a grafter as he was. Wanted to call in a lot of re-
 pOrteTs and have me tell 'em how much
 we'd paid him since he entered the council. Said he'd admit it, too. Now
 what can a business man do with a chap of that kind? I tell you politics in this country is a d-d dirty mess!' co
 'It's very shocking, indeed said Peter Potter
 He wouldn't sell ont-wOuIdn't fis- ten to reason at all," went on Tomlin- Son. Went right ahead and laid mains
 and service pipes all over town. Laid 'em with our money. Potter! Then he
 fixed up a deal with the Fayette Coun- 1 ty National Gas company and had an ordinance passed fixing the maximum price of fuel gas at fifty cents a thou sand feet. Now what do you think of
 that?"
 Very sad said Peter Potter.
 And now he announces publicly that the gas will be turned into his mains on May first. That's only two weeks off. We've tried every trick in
 the bag without finding anything to
 block them
 If you've a mind to bring $1O.0OO in cash over here by this afternoon, {"
 said Peter Potter. I'll look into the case. It interests me" TOmlinson went back to the office of his friend Hooper on La Sale street. He was not in good humor Your man seemed to know most of the story beforehand" he said. He pumped the rest of it out of me and , then ordered me to go and get him ] $10,O00 in cash before , o'clock" Hooper laughed. "I told you he was a very independent young eagle bird, % | he said. The only advantage is that i if Peter once starts out in a fighPhe1I | with what's left of the other fellow hanging from his talons. By the way. | you've got to hurry if you're going to 1 get that money there in time." Tomlinson went back to Peter Pot | ter's office with a roll of bills. The money loss in this fight is ! large enough and threatens to be ] larger. MT Potter" he said, "but l there's a question of business honor in 1 vOlved besides"
 'Yes, business honor" repeated Peter i Potter. TOmlinsOn looked at him with
 a half suspicious. half perplexed look 1 in his little, roJsld eyes.
 ''I suppose Mir. Potter" he went on, l you'll guarantee success in this ! thing"
 'Ill guarantee nothing" Peter an i swered Come back next Thursday at
 4 o'clock in the afternoon and I'll give i you my report Good day sir" That evening at his bachelor quar-
 ters on the North Side, Peter Potter
