A Pretty Little
 Wedding Last Evening

A quiet home wedding was consum- mated at o'clock last evening when Mir Alfred Eosgland took "for better or for worse" Miss Bella Beach. The wedding ceremony was performed with Rev Arthur Benedict officiating.
 MT. Hoagland is a worthy young man who has heen for several years in the employ of the Huachuca Water Co, and is now in charge of that company's affairs in the Huachuca mountains.
 Miss Beach is a charming young lady with many sterling qualities which form the requisites of an excel lent wife. The young couple were the recipients of some beautiful gifts, a serenade of the Tombstone band and also one from the small boys.
 Dainty refreshments were served and all made merry until the newly wed couple myste iously disappeared and were not seen again until this morning, when they took the train for the mountains. where they will go to housekeeping in a neat l'ttle cot tage recently erected for then by the company.
 The PRosPEcToR wishes to add its ieiic;:ations to the many the newly married couple have received in wish ing them "bon voyage" in their trip trough life.

Grimes, one of the prime movers in the creamery project here, have been denied admis- sion to Arizona by the federal law. which forbids southern California cattle entering Arizona at this time of the year, and not until November 1 can they enter.

An Ex-Arizonan's
 DespicabIe Position

The PRosPECToR has keen eye for l the welfare of th"se of our Arizona | pioneers wbo have forssken this dresm- ] land for other fields of plenty and promise. And We watch with a hope that those who have taken up their abode elsewhere may be showerd with blessings innumerable. We have ample reason for cherishing such A desire, for few there be of the early Arizona pioneers who have taken up . residence in other climes to divest | themselves of the manhood that marked them as men among men while here. As a general rule they are honest, capable and unswerying in devotion to a just cause and inslien- able as friends. These virtues as the noticeable characteristics of those hailing from Arizona have gone a long way toward substsntiating the good citizenship of tie territory that mani-
 tested itself so prominently when, but
 few months ago, they came to our
 aid and lent valuable service in
 thwsrting Senator Beveridge in his endeavor to rob us of our cherished , autonomy and turn the populace over
 as vassas of New Mexico A ex- Arizonans fought valliantly for their
 former country, and the territory en-
 tertains a high regard for the prin-
 ciple which sctuated their loyalty and
 devotion.
 These thoughts are brought to pub.
 lie gaze through the excoriating that one of Caliiornia's state senators il o now getting by the press of Los Ar T geles. His name is Savage, and wt
 are pained to admit that he was ono,
 a citizen of Arizona.
 Savage bears one distinction :, that he should be proud of-h, defeated Marcus A. Smith for distric
 attorney of Cochise county; but thos
 instrumental in putting Savage int office are heartily ashamed of it to thi
 day. His actions while here wer
 somewhat discreditable, and occasion
 no surprise that when a commission .. of his constituents visited the senator the president of that body reported a
 follows:-
 l. Senator Savage told US that h . was 67 years old: that he never ex SC pected to run for office again; flat h 70 had been elected to the senate an ss and would be there for two Iegisla 'e tive sessions; that he cared nsthin l for what the voters of his distrit '- wanted"
 since his episode in Tombstone dur 'e ing the early sos, we are not surprise
 at the course being pursued by MT } Savage in California. He is only fol 'e lowing out the trend of his former da '' tendencies; nor is it surprise to Ari zonans that Savage ignores his con stituents and turns his back upon hi benefsctors.
 Californians are justly indignan VI over the unwarranted snub by thei x state senator and will do their utmos '' to force him from his exalted posi-
 ton. That Savage "cares nothing 10 what the voters of his district wanted u is in keeping with the esteem in whici 7 . he held Arizonons when honored a their hands. Thank heaven we hay, none of the Savage stripe in our midst ' A kindly feeling goes out to Los An. geles county as she s:aggers under {
 burden-the victim of misplaced con.
 fidence.

now grating it is to the sensi-
bilities of the Dawson organs
when attention is called TO the
extravaganza of the economical
and business-like" administration
of Bill Dawson. Neither the In
telligencer nor the Sentinel have
the honesty to publish the APP
preparations under the Demo
cratic administration and the
Dawson administration.
It's questionable whether either
one of the organs has ever went.
to the expense OF consulting ithel
public records at Charleston, and
1t necessarily follows that, they,
have no knowledge whatever OF.
the appropriations under the Dem.
ocratic and Dawson administra-
tons. Both aspire to the dignity
of "molders of public opinion"
and pride themselves as the most
brilliant luminary opponents of
Republicanism, but they dare not
compare by publication the Demo
cratic and Dawson stete appropria-
tons. The increase in the Daw.
son appropriations is of such a
magnitude that 1t would be a
revelation to the organs them
selves.
The ARGUS is gratified to know
that the Wheeling organ, once
the beacon light of West Virginia
Republicanism under the guiding
hand of Archie Campbell, George
Huntington and Charlie Hart,
has condescended to make a public
exhibition of its dense ignorance
of state affairs.
THE ARGUS, which has in It's
possession the itemized appropria-
tons, defies the Intelligencer and
the Sentinel to publish the APP
preparations under the Demo-
cratic and Dawson administra-
tions. If they do they will learn
that The ARGUS in giving the
appropriations in round numbers
is so close to the truth that the ma
chine organs will not be able to
satisfactorily explain to the tax
payers the enormous increase in
the state appropriations, nor will
they attempt to defend that which
they profess to approve. The
test of sincerity will be the publ
cations OF the appropriations.
