FAIR SAMPLE


 yaricators for the tax-shirking cor porations in parading the fact that the assessment of the Copper Queen Company now exceeds two million dollars, blazoned in great display heading that the assessment ex' ceeds that of six counties, nam ing the six in the body of the arti. cle, and including therein santa Cruz, Yuma, Mohaye, Coconino. Apache and Navajo.
 That is pretty good for one pre- yarication. The joint assessment of the Six counties enumerated ex- ceeds ten millions of dollars, and 1t is plain that the prevarication is about four hundred per cent ont Of the way.
 But the paid preyaricator may seek to evade the point by assert ing that the meaning 70 be convey cd is that the Copper Queen assess ment exceeds that of anyone of the six counties named Then why did not the prevaricating newspaper present what t did mean2
 Now granting that Il meant that the assessment of the corporation exceeds that oi any one county named, let as make Il little analy- sis of the facts as presented in Santa Cruz county, The assess ment of Santa Cruz county for 1905 was slightly in excess oi one and three quarters millions of do!- lars, and it is evident that the new assessment of the Copper Queen corporation exceeds that of this county of santa Cruz, as returned last year. All well and good Now the total population of santa Cruz county does not exceed five thousand people The Copper Queen people boast that they give employment to ten thousand men. That was the testimony oi Walter Douglas, manager for the corpor- ation, before the House committee on territories, on the statehood n- quiry. Fully one half of those employees are in Cochise county. where the boasted assessment is rendered. So from the very crow emitted by the paid prevaricator 1t is plainly apparent that the productive capacity of the people of santa Cruz county counting men,swomen and children) very nearly approaches that of the five thousand able bodied adult male employes of the Copper. Queen Go, in Cochise county. Does anyone believe for moment that such is the actual faet2 The very point made by the paid prevarieator is positive roof that the new assess- ment of the Copper Queen corpor- ation is still too low.

Alleged Lynchers Given Freedom.

Barnwell, February S.-The seven men
who were arrested last week and lodged
in Jail for the murder of Frank and John
DeLoach, at Ulmer, just before Christ
mas, were given preliminary hearing
here yesterday before Magistrate G. w.
Moody and have been released, the testi-
mony not being considered sufficient to
keep them in Jail.
Long before the time of the hearing
crowds began to come in and at the time
appointed the Court House was packed
till standing room was at premium.
Solicitor Davis conducted the prosecu-
tion and examined the witnesses. Messrs.
Aldrich and Best were attorneys for the
defendants.
After the testimony had been given,
the Solicitor made clear statement OF
the States case and urged tIlst the de.
PENDANTS be bound over to the Circuit
Court. Both Messrs. Aldrich snd Best
made strong fight for their clients and
were rewarded by the magistrates deci.
sion. There was great deal of excite
ment when the magistrate, addressing
the prisoners, said: Seen tlemen, you
are dismissed; the State has failed to
make a case against YOU" Hats went
up in the air aud the court room rang
with the cheers of the sympathetic audi
ence. There were few who jeered at
the Sheriff and Solicitor, but no serious
trouble was ,aused.
All of the States witnesses were ne
groes except one, DR.. r. g. Kirkland,
who examined the dead body.

"Jack the Stabber," who has been Great
ing 80 much excitement in the last few
weeks by stabbing women with pocket
knife. A total of seventeen women and
girls have been stabbed on the streets,
fourteen having been stabbed during the
early evening of January %. None were
seriously wounded. Brady insists he did
not stab them all, but admits he does not
know how many were victims of his
knife. 81 just took the knife and stucl,
it into them," said Brady in high,
effeminate voice, and with no show OF
emotion or excitement. 81 don't know

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the eusta-
chian tube. When this tube gets inflamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condi-
tion Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any case of deafness Caused by catarrh)

Mr.. Evans pleasantly suggested that
folks had been lying on the senior
Senator, as they had on him. Till
man laughingly said that folks will
talk, whereupon the chairman of the
State board said that any one who
said he stole any money or was a
thief was all sorts of something un.
printable. Senator Tillman said that
was right, and to "cuss 'em out" the
fellows who said anything about
him. 1t was all good natured and
pleasant, but rather spicy language
was used. 1t is mistake to suggest
that there was anything violent, as
nothing but the best of feeling pre-
vailed.

self to the committee was to testify

fore the committee was it ? or to tes-
tify to facts which you yourself were
acquainted with?
IL did not feel like making a
speech; / have plenty of oppor-
tunities to make speeches"
"You will please answer my ques-
tion, Senator. Your intention in
coming before the committee was for
that purpose?
"To make suggestion and that
they might get at the truth"
"Did you not on several occasions,
at various places in this State, and
perhaps in Washington once or twice,
state that there was collusion and
fraud and you could prove itp"
"What stated was in the papers"
"That you could prove it ?"
"rhat I could prove it from cir
cumstantial evidence which have

"You wanted to come here to vim
dioate yourself ?"
81 have nothing to vindicate; no.
body has charged me with anything.
What do you mean by vindicating
my position ?"
"When you charged the dispen-
sary board, the present managers of
that board, with fraud, and stated
that the dispensary system was good
and the only thing to do was to turn
out the present thieves; that is the
position you desire to come down
