We are always pleased 10
near that this paper is worth
borrowing, but the borrowing
fiend sometimes oversteps
himself. A gentleman came
10 our Office this week and
said he had come 10 town with
his Delghbor, IA well.to.do
Democrat. That the gentle
man borrowed his Republican
regularly and usually before
he had read IL himself and
wanted us 10 send him the
paper out of self-defense. We
went out and found the man.
He said yes you have IA good
paper-the best in the county
Il read il every week" We
thanked him for his compli.
ment and told him we would
like to have his name as a
subscriber, when he said he
was getting all the Marshall
papers. We reminded him
that we certainly were not
sending this paper to him and
that while we had no objec-
tion 10 his reading "a borrowed
paper IL looked rather small
for "a man of his financial
standing. He turned away
with the remark, I'm get
ting all the papers i can
stand now"
This man, worth probably
$50, 900, represents two types
the habitual borrower who
makes himself u nuisance,
and the Democrat who can.
not overcome his prejudice
enough TO subscribe for y Re.
publican paper. Both are
certainly poor examples to
follow.

week referred to the county
farm appointment with the
statement that we would
have more to say on the sub
ject this week. As we have
heard Of no changes, we take
IL for granted that theappoint-
ment OF w. n. Wilson as SUI
pervisor of the county farm
will stand.
In the first place we will
state that in our opinion a
newspaper. like II public OIL
Ger, should work for the pub
lie welfare. 1t should also
point out facts that will help
the public To get a true in.
sight into public matters.
In the second place, a pub
lie man must have u clean
record or expect To- have his
faults pointed ont as quickly
rs he steps into II public po'
sition or aspires to II.
For some reason, "a little
difficult 10 explain, the county
court ut it's recent session APP
pointed W. N. Wilson AS coun-
ty farm supervisor. This is
an important position in IA big,
rich county like Saline, and
we understand there were
several worthy ~aspirants for
the position.
Immediately after the APP
pointment we heard "a number
of complaints regarding the
appointment Of Mr.. Wilson
and We finally decided 10 in
vestigatea and we're very much
surprised to learn Of his gen.
eral reputation and note the
fact that no one had a good
word for him.
AS we are treading on dan
gerous grounds in dealing
with generalities we make
the following specific state
ments. He is alleged to have
appropriated district scuoal
funds, to have attempted "
pass a worthless check in or
der to secure goods, 70 have
Overdue accounts, and in some
instance Judgments, ut Wood

In some OF these cases IL
might be hard To prove the
statement owing ~ the fact
that people are averse to get
ting into court and would
rather lose the account than
testify.
But the fact remains that
Mr.. Wilson has many unpaid
accounts.
Now the question naturally
arises, did the county court
appoint Mr.. Wilson SO that
he could pay of these obliga.
tons, or aid they do it ignor.
antly? In view Of these facts
and many more that we might
give, should he serve Saline
county in u public capacity?
Surely no man who has thus
abused mis- credit With our
merchants, should be handed
SO powerful u club TO beat
them into further subsection
with his buying power.

A WELL KNOWN MAN
 DIES IN SACA1ON
M. C. Fisk, Who assisted the Transfer Of the MeDoweIi Reservation to the Government.

M. C. Fisk died at Sacaton late Sun day night and the body was brought to this city yesterday and placed in the parlors of G. F. Merryman. waiting for information and instructions from rel atives concerning the disposition of the remains. The deceased has been in Arizona for the past eight years. and came here from Ohio. where his rela- tives now reside. He was about thirty five years of age and a man of many friends. For the past year and a half he had been employed as additional farmer at Sacaton but was formerly connected with the Mcdowell reserva- tion. There he was intimately asso- ciated with the transfer and final acts in giving the possession of the lands to the government for the use of the In- dians. In appreciation of his services the residents of that section presented him with gold watch and other val uables.
 He belonged to the Masonic order. which lodge will in all probability have charge of the funeral arrangements if buried here is will act as escort for the body to the train if shipped to the east for interment. He had been member of the Masons for fifteen years. Before coming to Arizona he was a captain of a steamboat on the Great Lakes but failing health com pelled him to seek a milder climate. He went to Los Angeles about a month ago and there contracted cold which hastened the progress of his illness to final dissolution.
 AlaxanHnr of Sanafnn panied the body to this city. He says that Mir. Fisk realized that the end was near and he was resigned to the final outcome and went as far as to some time ago lay aside money for his bur ial which he never touched for any other purpose. He has a mother in Ashbury. Ohio. a sister in New York and one in Kentucky.

FEET OUT She Had Curious Habits,

When a person has to keep the feet out from under the cover during the coldest nights in winter because of the heat and prickly sensation. it is time that coffee, which causes the trouble. be left off.
 There is no end to the nervous con- d!ition that coffee will produce. It shows in one way in one person and in another way in another. In this case the lady lived in s. Oak. She says:
 T have had to lie awake half the night with my feet and limbs out of the bed on the coldest nights, and felt afraid to sleep for fear of catching cold. I had been troubled for years with twitching and jerking of the low CT limbs. and for most of the time I have been unable to go to church or to lectures because of that awful feeling that I must keep on the move.
 "When it was brought to my atten- tion that coffee caused so many nerv- ous diseases. I concluded to drop cof- fee and take Postum Food Coffee to see if my trouble was caused by coffee drinking.
 "I only drank one cup of coffee for breakfast. but that was enough to do the business for me. When I quit 1t my troubles disappeared in an almost miraculous way. Now I have no more of the jerking and twitching and can sleep with any amount of bedding over me and sleep all night. in sound. peace full rest.
