Rush to Shower Congratulations.
At the conclusion of the voting there
was a rush of republican senator's to
the cloakroom to congratulate Mr..
Smoot. A large number of members o.
the house followed, and the senior
Utah senator was patted on the back
and his hands were shaken in hearty
fashion by the men who expressed
their admiration OF his bearing in the
long and trying ordeal through which
he had passed. On the floor OF the sen.
ate and in the galleries It was many
minutes before order could be re-
stored.
smoot In self.Defenss.
In a speech delivered by him in the
senate the day before the vote, Sena.
tor Smoot said:
II desire to state, as l have here
tofore repeatedly stated to the senate
and to the country, that l am not and
never have been a polygamist. new.
er have had but one wife. and that is
my present wife.
Il have no hesitation, Mr. President,
in declaring 70 the senate that in my
opinion any man who has married a
polygamous wife since the manifesto
should be prosecuted and, IL convicted,
should suffer the penalties Of the law
And I care not who the man might be
or what position he might hold in
the church. he should receive the pun
ishment pronounced by. law against his
crime"

BEFORE THt BATTLES
 WITH PRtS60IT GRAYS
Hartwel $ ;- Fine Trim and the Fans Are Joyous Over the Outlook.

Prescott Gra-s will arrive today. and this afternoon. beginning at 3:SO the first of the series of games will be played at Eastlake Park. The final practice before the game was had last night, and Hartwell showed up better than at any other time in his life. He shot fifteen over the platter in sue cession and ..ad at his command all the old-time foOlers and some of the later crooks. slow ball. spit ball and the kind that jump Hartwell is going into the game to win. He wants to win. and all the fans are dead anxious t) see him win. More than that they are confident as never before that he will bring home the bacon in today < contest. Word reaches here that the Grays are little leary of Hartwell. and are somewhat shakey m their shoes. The Gravs know what he has dcne before and they are affected with ague already.
 When he spins like a cannon ball, the elusive sphere over the dish today, the cold sweat will begin tc- eXude. Of course this is a before-the- battle guess, but those who have seen the old hoss pitch lately are running over with enthusiasm and will be nightly disappointed if he does not pull down the -ersimmon
 Naturally he can not do it anone. \ bum play. rotton error a ball slung into the fox tail. will cause the situa- tion to siclIy over with a pale cast of thought But there will be Mitchell, Markwith. Driscol, perhaps Luna, Ninson, Morty, Magiffin. Stambaugh, Williams or Rudolph who have been faithfully practicing and have always played pretty heady ball so far. The lineup has played a few games to- gether and will grow stronger as the season .asses.
 A big crowd will witness the game today as there is more confidence in the locals and more interest in the na- tional sport than at any time this year. A large following of rooters will help the team to win and give Pres cout something to talk about for some time to come. IL is safe to say. what ever the outcome. of the game, it is sure to be d kOtl- contested affair from the first whack of the ball.

NEW LABOR UNION
 SILENCE HIS MOTTO
Organized for Action and Not to Re- form the World-Its Constitution and Bylaws is "S2.50."

Phoenix might just as well throw up her hands right now as at any later time. She has finally got a labor un- ion that knows its business its power and the way to perpetuate it. IT does not believe in strikes. riots or violence but it purposes to get there just the same. Its motto is ''get a cinch and then hold it."
 Reference is here made to the Housecleansrs union number 41144. an organization subordinate to nothing except its own interests which it pro poses to protect by the most emphatic silence. which it recognizes as its strongest weapon. Eligibility to mem bership involves no color line. race. nationality or previous condition of servitude. A graduate of Harvard, if he be a competent house cleaner. is just as desirable as though he just arrived through Castle Garden. The two requisites to membership are first. ability to sweep a floor and dust carpet, and secondly. the ability of the applicant to keep his mouth shut at all times. for this union is a secret society as well as an industrial alliance.
 There are to be no jawsmiths and the officers will wear no badges, pa rade the streets or break into the prints as representatives of the down. trodden working man. It is not glory these men are after but two dollars and half per day. as against two dol lars. heretofore recognized as the prop CT remuneration of the lad who puts the house in order and makes it habit able after the summer vacation.
 The union of course has got to get before the public enough to let its ex- istence be known. else would the sea- son fly and the first years pickings slip away without result. but this has been managed very cleverly. \ mem- ber it might have been the grand high priest or the humblest of the clan, for all the reporter knows. hands out the facts of the organization and the scale. then seals his lips and melts away. Asked concerning the Organiza- tion the informant said that all the facts in which the public is concerned. are that the organization has been formed, the officers named and the scale fixed, and of these the only thing worth remembering is the scale.
 Asked who the officers were. the member was suddenly stricken dumb Pressed for reason for this unusual feature of a labor union and told that most unions were more than anxious that their actions be given publicity the member found speech again for moment. He said that most unions sought to reform the world, to create a great moral movement in their inter- est. The Phoenix housecleaners union only seeks $2-50 day and by attend ing to its own business it proposes to get it. If the identity of its officers should become kndrn they would be boycotted by the householders for their demand for the extra half-buck The officers like all other members are working men and after the money.
