CAME FROM CHICAGO
 AFTER ARIZONA SNlPE
The First Attempt Found Them Un-
 willing to Bite.

Arthur Stevenson, of Chicago, who is spending the winter in Phoenix, went snipe hunting last night, but had the poorest kind of luck. The snipe would not bite at all and he came nome empty handed. But for a young sportsman, having had practically no experience in catching snipe, he dem onstrated rare qualities of persever- ance and judgment
 MT. Stevenson is very desirous of learning the ways of the west, ani naturally enters into all sorts of vest ern sports with a zest and earnest ness that is inspiring. He is a bright young man, but snipe hunting is not indulged in in Chicago any more than lion hunting is. In fact, there is little game in those parts except suckers and the tiger. When he heard about snipe hunting in Arizona he was keen for the field. Yesterday he was told at his boarding house that suioe, like fish. would always bite better after a little rain, so he lost no time in urging his friends to organize a snipe hun5. He admitted at the first that he knew nothing about the equipment or meth . ods but a number of his friends set

AN IMAGINARY DEAL
 SALE OF P. |. & F. co.
No Change of Ownership or Manage
 mentin Contemplation.

For some days there has been ru- nor of the sale of the Phoenix Light and Fuel company. The rumors were without any foundation and no atten- ton was given to them. But yesterday there was published a statement pur- porting to be given with authority, that the Pemberton stock in the en- terprise had been disposed of to San Francisco parties. that the papers had been signed and that the actual trans fer would take place in May.
 There is absolutely nothing in this. Vice President and General Manager McClung, of the company, was seen last night regarding the report and he authorized the complete denial of it. Since a prospective deal with certain California parties for the sale of the plant was abandoned several months ago. none mas been pending. There has been no transfer of stock and there will be no transfer of the stock of the Pemberton estate without the knowl- edge and consent of MT. McClung, w. F. Staunton and Frank T. Alkire the executors of the estate.

 A candle had, of course, been pro vided, and after MT. Stevenson had been duly stationed and the candle lighted to attract the game, the others left him to. beat up the surrounding brush In about ten minutes more they were enroute home on an electric car, but MT. Stevenson patiently guarded the sack and fancied every little while that he could hear the chirp of the birds. It was 10 o'clock when the candle finally burned out and MT. Stevenson knew then that it was all up with him, for he had no more candles. So he came back to town to wait for another spell of snipe weather.
 At press time he was still buying.

Bailey of Texas.

In the primary election held in Texas Sat
urday Mr.. Bailey had no opposition. and
consequently will succeed himself in the
Senate for a fun term of six years. His
hold upon his constituents is exceedingly
strong, and in him they have a representa-
tive of conspicuous ability. AS a lawyer he
ranks with Spooner and Knox and Foraker,
and that Is very high praise AS speaker
he IS as lucid Mr.. Carlisle. AS a parlia-
mentarian he Is entirely at ease in the
most complex situation, and as student
of the Constitution he has shown his quail
ity in several discussions which attracted
national attention. And he Is only forty
three years old.
Mr.. Bailey's one defect is lack of self
control He has too much ginger in his
composition. 1t is liable to carry him too
far in times of legislative storm and stress.
1t has carried him too far several times.
He abandoned his party's leadership In the
House because OF impotence with his party
friends, when patience would have solved
his difficulty. and the only question OF his
leadership in succession to Mr.. German in
the Senate relates to the same matter. In
everything but self-control he is the SUI
peflor OF the late senator from Maryland
nat sort OF an executive would Mr.
Bailey make? II Mr.. Bryan is elected Pres
luent In 1905 he will need the STRONGEST cab
met he can construct. He may follow Mr.
Llncoln's example and call to his side the
pick Of his party's leadership. The Office
or Attorney General next 10 that of Sec
rotary Of the Treasury. will cali for his
most serious thought. and IL he Is 10 sat
isiy his party he must fill the place with a
lawyer OF the best ability, altogether sound
on the trust question. Mr.. Bryan Is anti
trust. Texas is antitrust. and so is Mr..
Bailey. How, then. would the transfer of
MIR. Bailey from the legislative to the .ex
ecut!ve field affect his party ana his own
personal usefulness?
Mr.. Bryan's first presidential nomination
was not pleasing TO Mr.. Bailey and for a
few days threatened to put an end to the
Texans political career. He did not consid
er the Nebraskan democrat. and talked of
retiring from Congress. But things have
changed since then for MIR. Bailey. as for
many other people, and now the Texas de-
mocracy and the Nebraska democracy spell
the same thing Mr.. Bailey could sit at Mr..
Bryan's council table and feel entirely at
home.

Taft and the Ohio campaisn.

Senator Dick, 1t is reported. desires the
assistance OF a member of the cabinet in
the Ohio campaign. II is a reasonable re-
quest, and probably will be granted. Who
possesses qualifications for the task equal
TO those of Judge Taft? He is a son of the
soil. He knows the constituency He Is a
republican through and through. MANY
people hope he has more than an everyday
partisan interest In the contest. They re-
gard him as good presidential timber, and
il their advice is taken he will lead his
party In 1908. Judge Taft, then, would ap-
pear to be the very man for the assignment
Last year there was some sharp criticism
OF Judge Taft growing out of his participa-
ton in the Ohio campaign As always, he
spoke his mind frankly and made his mean
Ing entirely clear. One of the issues there
as elsewhere, was bossism, and at Cincin-
natl the republicans had boss OF most un-
savory reputation. AS an honest man Judge
Taft played no favorites. He refused 10
accept Boss Cox because of his partisan
complexion. and advised the defeat of the
municipal ticket which Cox was sponsoring.
The advice was so good that numbers of
republican voters took it, and Cox.s ticket
was showed under az the polls
This In machine circles made Judge TAFT
for the time very unpopular. He was held
partly responsible for the defeat OF Gov
Herrick. although he had supported the
state ticket and desired It's success.
At this day. however. there need be no
misunderstanding on the subject Judge

ing anything that came to hand to earn for
him the necessities OF itfe He claims TO
have taken nothing with him when he left
Paterson, and he urges. too, that his steal
ings did not reach the large total which has
been estimated. He makes no excuses for
his conduct and only begs to be speeded to
his punishment in order that his mind may
be set at rest.
It is a common discovery that even the
shrewdest and most brazen swindiers be-
come miserably unhappy when they have
fisd to a haven of refuge. They leave be-
hind them all their familiar associations,
their friends, their occupations. Especially
is ii true that In a foreign country the
fugitive criminal soon loses his nerve and
longs for his old surroundings. even at the
cost OF his liberty. He may be defiant and
debonnaire at the outset, but he quickly
suffers agones of inconsistencies. There is
no greater punishment for such man as
this sense OF separation and loss. AS far
as he is concerned he could not more sure
ly get his deserts than through the neces-
sity to remain cooped in an unfamiliar re-
gion, afraid to look abroad, suspicious OF all
new Corners, dwelling painfully on his for
mer life and regretting his conduct every
hour of the long day.
Belcher says that he was in torment all
the time he was away from Paterson lest
This is small world, and it is becoming
more and more difficult to lose ones self.

Belcher of Paterson

II there was ever case of conscience
working to break down the spirit and Will
OF man. that case is presented py former
Mayor Belcher OF Paterson, N. j.. who
more than a year ago disappeared and was
discovered TO have made way with more
than 100000 by one fraudulent means and
another. Belcher left no traces behind him
as to his intended route- He was hunted
high and low. far and near. buS his pur
suers obtained no clue and finally gave up
the search: The fugitive was indicted on
six counts. being accused of embezziement
fraud and forgery. Those who had lost by
his schemes and tricks accepted their fate
philosophically, feeling that there would
never re reimbursement in any part The
case was dropping out OF the public mind
and Belchsr was recollected only as one of
the lost. when suddenly he appear ed at the
door OF the county jail and knocked for adj

Taft's declaration last year was against
Boss Cox and his methods, and not against
his party or any of its reputable leaders
He was a republican then, as he Is now.
He wants his party to win Coxism IS not
today an issue. The republicans of the
state are working on good lines. and MEM
bers OF the next national House are to be
elected. Why should not Judge Taft exert
himself, and why should not his efforts be
most acceptable to republicans all over

Is part of the republican assets and no
man is better prepared to explain and
champion that record than the man who as
Secretary of War has helped TO shape some
of its very brightest chapters.
Judge Taft is thoroughly qualified for the
emergency, and Senator Dick would do
well to bespeak and secure his aid.

Watterson on Bryan.

OF the many reasons given by democrats
who formerly opposed Mr.. Bryan for sup
porting him now none Is more interesting
than that given by Mr.. Watterson. Speak,
ing of Mr.. Bryan, he says:
His biggest asset is the party predi-
lection. He has distinct following which
has held together. which prefers him to all
others, which believes him to have oeen
cheated out Of two elections and which
cannot be voted solidly for any other can
didate."
How many democrats really believe That
Mr.. Bryan was cheated out of two cleo
tions'? And why should any wel-informed
man believe such thing? Mr. Mckinney
won in 1896 on the strength Jointly of MS
equipment for Office and the CHARACTER of
the platform upon which he stood. Mr.
watterson from across the Atlantic, where
he was then sojourning. Indirectly SUP
ported him. NO compromise with dis
honor was his deliverance, sent by cable.
with respect TO She silver plank Of the
Chicago platform. In 1900 Mr.. Mckinley
won on the strength of the record he had
made in the White House. his admins
tration had been emIuently successful, and
a vote of confidence was the result. MI
Bryan was foredoomed to defeat. Had the
country turned to him with his re-asser-
ton of the Chicago platform. after its ex
perience with MI Mckinley In office. the
act would have been all but imbeciie.
But. for the arguments sake, let us sup
pose the number large of democrats who
believe that corporation money bought the
two Mckinley elections. What would be
the effect on the democratic party and on
the country of electng Mr.. Bryan Presi-
dent by combination of those democrats
with democrats and independents who OPP
posed Mr. Bryan on principle in 1896?
Would the two factions, united for success
at the polls. trust each other In office? How
could they cooperate without confidence
In each other? And what policies would
bring and hold them together? Men who
were anti-Bryan in 1896 because they
thought the interests of the country de-
manded opposition TO him would be ILL
the defeat of Mr.. Bryan that year to the
corrupt use Of money. Such a team could
not pull together for party or the public
good.
Mr. Bryan sees the difficulty, and shows
II by his frank explanations of his present
attitude toward public questions. He has
said that the democratic campaign of 1892
was a bunco game, when the party prom
Used one thing to the east and another thing
TO the west, and in office disappointed every
body. Thomas c. Plat has recently been
described as The Last of the Bosses" Let
US hope that the Cleveland campaign of
1892 may prove to be THE Last of the
Presidential Buncos."
