Southern Pacific
 Causes Surmises

The presence of a quantity of steel rails belonging to the Southern Pa cific road, at Agua Prieta, is the cause of fresh surmises as to the likelihood of that railroad entering Douglas im- mediately. The American says:
 Although all the :, P men are non-committal on the subject, other transportation lines declare the rail, will not be moved from Agua Priets until they are laid out of the littl, town as part of the Southern Pacific line to Nacozsri. The Southern Pa eff, office is evidently here to stay, fol H. T. Greene. the forwarding agent has purchased an adobe residence or Ninth street"

Again has a Yuma county woman made good in a mining deal. For the second time in ten days a woman has sold Yuma county mining property for $l0.000. It's enough to, sll the hills with the musical swish of skirts
 The fortunate lady is Mrs A.

The property is called the Free Gold lode.

Tucson Nine in
 The Baby Act

The Corbett aggregation of ball tossers are now busy airing their inn aginary grievances in the Tucson pa pers, and attribute their loss of the Tombstone game to the decision of the umpire, and the fact that they had not previously practiced on the local diamond.
 The whole trouble is that the Cor bett nine was plainly outclsssed, and fearing an overwhelming defeat sought out a slight provocstion to register s kick and assume the air of injured in- nocense.
 The incident is to be regretted, but will not dim the lustre of the Tomb stone club, which is the best nine in the southwest. Tombstone's favor ite pitcher and the excellent support of the nine was too much for poor old Tucon.

 Protect Tourists

The government has authorized the establishment of 8 game preserve ID which it will be unlawful to hunt or even discharge fire arms within one mile on either side of Walnu. Canyon at the Cliff Dwellings.

A WONDERFUL CLOCK.

A clock which the inventor claim will run 2000 years was recently con- structed by an Engliahmsn. The mo- tive power is q small piece of gold leaf which iselectrified by quantity Of rad ium salt. He also claims that it will keep correct time but costs about one thousand dollars to make. Among medicines the most wonderful is Hoe tetter's Bitters being first compound ed 54 years ago. It should therefore appeal to every sick man or woman who desires to be made well again.
 One trial will convince you that there is nothing else like it for curing sick headache, ,hstulency, poor appe tite heart burn, sour risings. dyspepsia, in. cramps, diarrhoea, malaria, fever and ague. Try it to-day. It is guaranteed under the pure drug act of June 30, 1906.

Occasionally, we are re- minded in a gratifying way that this is a Civil Service Re- form Administration, after all. The United States Shipping Commissioner at Philadel- phia has just been removed for undue political activity. It was in 1902 that President Roosevelt issued warning against the interference of Federal office holders in party politics. This has often been defied with impunity, yet it is we'll to have itenforced now and then. It has been in Commissioner Knights case. He was first notified that he was far too busy with party caucuses and conventions, and must confne himself strictly to the business of the Govern ment. He persisted, how ever, iu his insubordinate and improper course; charges were brought against him by the Civil Service Reform Associ- ation of Philadelphia; MT. Knight himself admitted that they were true, and the de- mand for his resignation fol lowed. This will be an awful warning to those other Fed eral office-holders who are do- ing the Presidents political errands.
 But it is presumed that where Federal officials tray el under cover" and exer- else an influence over the "trooly loyal' and preferred especially when they reside ir one of Uncle Sam's depend encies, the missionary worE may not be construed to near that they have gone without their prescribed official duties Arizona postofiices and U. S reservoirs have been officially visited of late, and as a result Dad Sturgiss and U. $ Marshal Daniels will "ger busy" flashing delegates into harness for the nominating convention of 1908, when the Administration will name g man who will be defeated by the peoples idol--William Jennings Bryan.

GOD HATES A COWARD.

A few days ago Mr.. Ashby Snow,
chairman of the Democratic City
Committe, issued challenge to ] E.
Darmer, chairman of the mongrel
City Committee, for a joint debate,
the subjects suggested being the sta
tus of the municipality and where the
credit for improvements properly be-
longs. In his reply Darmer does
not meet the questions presented
squarely, but attempts to meet them
with evasion if not timidity, nor is
his missive couched in the gentleman
" terms which characterized the
challenge of Mr.. Snow Instead, the
chairman of the miscegenation party
talks on lot of who'll irrelevant
subjects, of which as istoinary
with that coterie, the Mormon church
is made to bear the onus, and to
which Mr.. Snow could ut afford to
pay the slightest attention. OF course

Be patient, good folks; the rods
are in the pickle and at the proper
time will be brought forth and APP
piled where they will assuredly do
the most execution to those who de-
serve their application. Misgovern-
ment and misrule may obtain temper
airy success and flourish for a brief
season; but they invariably lay the
foundation of their own undoing and
bringing their inglorious career to
such an ending as is sorrowful only
to those who held such ephemeral
sway.
The hierarch phantom is the whole
capital of the american" party. The
hierarch scarecrow is all it has in the
way of working capital.
At the same time if Mr.. Snow and
his party had been dead gam" it
would have accepted the terms of
Mr.. Darmer 1t was an excellent OPP
portunty for Mr.. Snow and his
friends to have torn the Americans"
to tatters.
The democrats can always be re-
lied upon to do the wrong thing at
the right time and the right thing at
the wrong time. In other words, cow
ards are despicable.
The democrats issued the chal-
lenge and haven't got sense enough
or courage enough to stay with it,
although as between themselves and
the Americans" they had a lead
cinch, they had an opportunity that
doesn't arise every day.
There is either niger or several
niggers in the democratic wood pile
or the democratic leaders % are
cravens and cheap tricksters. Both,
we think.

Foolish Expectations

gain public offices, disgruntled office
seekers, Salt River patriots.
The American" party's policy has
been one of wilfull, wicked, cowardly
and despicable Misrepresentation. Its
capital has been and is duplicity, lying
graft and almost everything that is
despicable. 1t has shown a DISPOSE
ton the most reprehensible than can
be imagined. 1t has been guilty of
everything dishonorable and repellant
to fairness and decency and unbound
ed arrogance and assumption to Writ
ues to which it is an utter stranger.
1t has demonstrated that it has no
morality in any sense of the word
1t lies about those opposed to its
nefarious practices and misrepresents
them in every way possible and uses
the low cunning of the Bowery to
place them in false light 1t is
utterly reprehensible and wicked in
all that it does.
Its history is record of the basest
infamy. And yet there are those who
are so unsuspecting as to expect JUS
tice from it.
Its sole object now is to keep its
opponents apart, so that it can defeat
them in detail. Then the "Ameri-
cans" will put their tongues in their
cheeks and jeer and laugh at them
and tell how easily they were fooled.
Those who expect anything approach
ing justice or fair play at their hands
are very innocent unsuspecting peo-
pie. The Americans" are playing
them for suckers and suckers they
are if they allow themselves to be de-
ceived again.
The Americans" are transparent
buffers. They are asses arraycd in
the skins of lions, they bray and bel
low and brighten some poor Mormon
fools who haven't sense enough to
defend themselves when they ought to
be making the attack instead of allow.
ing themselves to be always placed on
the defensive. Any one who expects
any justice or honor from the "Ameri-
can" crowd is little short of idiocy
