in its proper sense, not as the word
is too commonly applied to men who
have neither the education, the cul
ture or the instincts or the other
qualities which go to make up the
gentleman. Mayor Bransford we be-
lieve has all these, but for all that
he lacks the qualities most essential
for mayor of Salt Lake especially at
this time when there are so many
thugs and schemers holding office and
SO many other thugs and thieves as
Stunning to control the actions of the
chief executive of the city. Mr..
Bransford, however good his inten-
tons, is no match for them He is
too unsuspecting to detect their
schemes and not strong enough to
resist them even if he was aware of
their tricks. That he lacks the kind
of ability necessary for the mayor
to possess has been demonstrated
during the short time he has been in
office. If he had been a strong man
he would not have been in office
forty-eight hours without informing
himself fully of the financial condi-
ton of the city, without calling upon
the head of every department for an
accounting of his stewardship, with
out finding out where the leaks were,
without finding out the wastes, ex-
travagance and thievery and taking
prompt and decisive measures to
stop them. Mr.. Bransford has done
none of these things and the waste,
extravaganza and thievery goes mer-
rilly on and the mayor has said that
after several months in office he
knows nothing about the finances OF
the city. He has been in office long
enough to show the stuff that he is
made of. He has been tried and
found wanting. By the way too that
was very lame excuse he made for
admitting that he knew nothing OF
the city's finances. He admits that
he said it, but says that he was talk
ing in confidence and not for publ
cation. An officer who will talk TO
a reporter of an opposition paper and
make such a damaging admission as
he made and expect it not to be used
against him shows himself to be de-
cidedly unsophisticated. Mr.. Brans-
ford is equally unsophisticated when
it comes to running the affairs of the
municipality.
The democrats think they are play
ing very foxy game in the matter
of fusing with the republicans on
councilmanic candidates in the ,nuni-
cipal wards. 1t was Chairman Snow
of the democratic city committee who
proposed this fusion and with all OF
few others of the party got it adopt
ed over the strong protests of such
acknowledged democrats as Judge
Powers, Judge King, Simon Bamber-

last Monday evening. W. r. Hardy,

sister who is travelling overland from
Arkansas. At the depot he was met
by Harry Wright and a pal, both well
known bunco men, and escorted to

grafters started dice game and in
some manner prevailed on Hardy to

Judge Dunlap with his two little boys left for Los Angeles Sunday morning 10 join his wife, who has been there for some weeks.
 Arizona Gazette Bert Jackson. who has been in the valley since last Saturday, returned to Kirk land this morning, taking along a carload of young cattle which he had purchased from the best dairy herds on the south side. Mir. Jackson Is one of the largest stock men in the Kirkland district and will turn the valley cattle loose on his range there to improve his present breed
 Williams News The prices of saddle and driving horses have in- creased forty per cent here in the west during the last few months and more than 100 per cent during the past year. Animals that could have been bought for $6O and $7O a year ago are now held at from Sl25 to Sl40 and are hard to get at that price. Horsemen are at a loss to account for the sudden de- Inand for riding and driving ami mals.
 Florence Blade: Some persons, whose names we could not ascer- tain, drove eight or ten head of cattle into a corral at Blackwater ! last week and left them in there six or eight days without water. This Is an aggravated case ofcruel- { ty to animals, and under our statutes the penalty for such an offense Is heavy fine. There Is no excuse for such cruelty and 1t is . t pity that some one did not notify 1 the officers so that the offenders could have been given lesson i worth remembering.
 Stafford Journal: Mir. and Mrs. [ A. J. Lewis of Black Rock were in Stafford, Saturday, transacting busi- ness, and greeting old friends. Mr. Lewis started in the cattle business with thirteen cows twelve wears ago, on his Black Rock ranch, and now has 157 head, and has sold all the steers as soon as they matured. Mr. Lewis success proves that Arizona is one of the best commonwealths in the country. and a splendid locality for citi- zen with limited capita! to acquire wealth. Mir. Lewis is an excellent judge of cattle and careful breeder, and merits the success he has achieved.

 but he can't get what he wants, for

 many people beside Mir. Mackay

 The valley horse supply is not

 breeders should lose no time in correcting this situation. Mir.
 Mackay says he can find plenty of mules and few old skates that nobody wants, but the supply of good marketable horses, and par ticularly mares, is limited indeed. Speaking of the Baumann mine, he said the company is working about thirty men and everything is proceeding satisfactorily.

Mir. Benton is travelling over the country looking for cattle and he says that the stock in Arizona and New Mexico gre thin at present, as there Is a scarcity of water, and rain is much needed.

relief to both teachers and pupils to-
day when the schools disband for the
holiday recess not to reconvene until
January
All the city public schools held their
Christmas exercises today Recitations,
songs, tabieaux and other pretty con-
cets appropriate to the day were given
by the children. In keeping with the
spirit of Christmas. the pupils of sew
eral schools brought groceries, clothing
and other provisions. which were later
placed in baskets and distributed to
the poor of the city

OF the First Presbyterian Church OF New
Castle and was held in 500 bail for the
Court OF General Sessions

The prominence Of the parties con-
nected with the case has made the af-
fair the talk Of New Castle. The assault
occurred on Sunday morning on the
streets in New Castle, and as result.
Pastor Wylie was unable to conduct SER
vices in his church on Sunday evening.
