Dairyinq ii Henderson.

Immense quantities of butter
have been and are now being
shipped into Henderson county.
Which is an absurd and con-
Trajectory state of affairs, for
we have here a longer pastu e
season, and are close to the
cotton seed market, which is
really the foundation of the
dairy business.
Jonathan Case is showing at
his fine dairy farm at Dana, that
just as fine grade of butter may
be produced here as anywhere.
The two hotels here are now
using it and certainly the SAM
pie brought to the Hustler office
was equal to even the famous
Fox River butter.
In October DR.. TAFT Butler and
three assistants gave a dairy
course at Mr.. Cases farm, the
first ever held in this State.
Over so people attended and
intelligent interest was shown
by all.
The State offers prizes of $25,
$40, .$15. $40 and SIS for the best
pound of butter produoed IN this
state each year. They pay all
express charges and each sample
submitted is carefully tested be-
fore the awards are made
What Mr. Case is doing others
cam do The farmers Of this
county mo longer send hundreds
of thousands of dollars away for
stuff for feed. They
should develop the dairy business
of Henderson county and stop
the flow of another stream of
igOld4o the NOxth-where: it re-
MAINS. for not one cent of It. Is

President-elect Taft's New
York speech, before the North
Carolina Society, so-called, has
been roundIy denounced by the
Southern press, with few excep-
tons, as it should have been.

Mr.. Taft should now read the
Northern people a lecture for re-
manning solidly republican. Why
don't they forget old sentiments
and ''old traditions?" Can't
they break away from tariff bar
.ons and trust magnates? Can it
be that ''Uncle Toms Cabin" is
still haunting them in their
dreams? Let them,forget it.

Early Announcements
DStaStGfh.

for the congressional nomination
in this district two years hence.
It is much too early vet for as
pirants to begin trimming their
sails for a contest so far in the
distance" Let the folks rest
awhile. Most everybody is sick
and tired of agitation. We had
enough of it in North Carolina
last year, and until the 3rd of
November 1908, to amuse the
people for a couple of genera
tons. That fight for the guber-
Material nomination started fully
a year too soon and the methods
employed during the progress of
the contest did the democratic
party incalculable harm. Demo-
Gratis fought each other more bit
terly than they did the republi-
cans at the general election.
While the tenth district was
united in its support of a favorite
son, the unseemly contest lost
the party hundreds of votes in
other parts of the State. Any
democrat, who is capable of re-
presenting the district. has a per
feet right to contest for the nom
nation, but the individual who
starts out two years before time
for holding theconvention should
be- handed a lemon when it is
held. Hon. j. c. Buxton, of the
fifth district, has a proper con-
ception of conditions existing at
this time. When asked recently
If he would be a candidate for
congress in his district two years
Mr.. Buxton gave the fol-
loving sensible answer:
1--WE have not yet recovered,
from our recent bereavement in
the fifth district, and it is not be-
coming, in my opinion, for Dem
ocratic aspirants to open a cam
of pledging voters six
months in advance of the time
Mr.. Morehead, the success
full candidate will take his seat.
I do not know what is going to
happen to me in the next two
years. | do not want to pledge
friends to me to be redeemed
years hence, regardless of
| am the proper man to
undertake the redemption of this
district or not. The truth is we
need a change in methods in this
district in the manner of secur-
ing nominations. | shall never
do anything, should I ever be-
come a candidate for the nomi-
nation in this district, but an
nounce my candidacy and leave
it to the voters of the several
counties to decide whose nomi-
nation will best serve the inter-
ests of the people of the district.
I shall never undertake to round
up the township voters in my in
terest, regardless Iof my fitness
for the position"
Mr.. Buxton's idea not only ap-
plies to his district, but should
be put into practice by democrats
everywhere in North Carolina.
The people are not going to toler-
ate Objectionable methods in the
selection Of candidates for office,
and unless the democrats quit
their foolishness and get down
to business they need not expect
to succeed in this district. The
district can easily be redeemed,
if democratic leaders will consid.
er party success paramount tc
personal aggrandizement. Lei
the people pick the mantle

IKE" COOPER NOW
 LINENS Fl PAsO COPS
Hebrew of Many Troubles Hid ing From Police of Pass
 City-knifed a Man,

Ike Cooper, of considerable notoriety in this city and Globe, where he was usually referred to as '.Ikie" has been up to his old tricks and is hid ing out from the police ia Fl Paso, according to accounts contained in the papers of the Pass City. After leav- ing here 'Ikie," his sister, mother and g girl with whom ne was living were all arrested in Globe on various charges. The authorities there were instructed to hUis> him by Justice. Bur dick, who wants him here for jump ing a S25 bond
 It is possible that the Cooper refer red to in the Fl Paso papers is an other person, but the circumstances surrounding his arrest lead one to be Iieve that he is the same trouble maker who skipped his bond here.
 Cooper was arrested in Fl Paso on a charge of fighting, found guilty and fined Sl0. He had not been out of custody but a few hours whel the of fcars were again after him on charge of assaulting a man named A. RosenwahI with a knife. Rosenwahl is not seriously hurt. At last accounts Cooper was supposed to be in Juarez and had not been captured

GOING EAST ID PURCHASE
 BIG STOCK
c. ]. GainsIey Leaves This Afternoon to Select Fall Goods in the Dry Goods De-
 partmeRt of the Fair Store.

Mir c. J. Gainsley, buyer and man. ager of the Dry Goods department at The Fair Store, will leave this after noon for eastern markets to purchase the fall stock for this section. Mr. Gainsley has been at the head of this department for a number of years; his good judgment and tasteful selections are indorsed by Bisbee's most fasti- dious dressers The buyer tells us that his purchases for this trip will be much larger than at any previous time That The Fair Store has en- joyed a very liberal patronage of the Bisbee people during the past season. The business in his department has not suffered a decline, but rather has shown healthy increase over any previous year, in face of the panicky conditions of the country so much talked by the .'pessimist," that he expects the Fall and Winter season to be much larger than the one just now coming to a close. Mir Gainsley will return about September 1st.

REDUCED RATES BY RAILROADS
 ID MERCHANTS
Conference Yesterday Between
 Representatives Southern Pacific and Southwestern Favorable to Shippers. i

Yesterday was busy day with sev- eral members of the Board of Trade and A. N Brown, general freight agent of the El Paso & Southwestern and NJ. o. Bicknell, traffic manager for the Hartman lines. Many conferences over rates were held, and concessions granted by the railroad men which mean much to the business men of Bisbee. In many cases where conces- sions were not made by the railroad men their positions were explained in such manner that better feeling prevailed on both sides.
 Brown was received as an old friend by the members of the Board of Trade, as he was present at the transportation banquet given last May where he made one of the memorable addresses of the occasion. Bicknell was to have been present and had ac- .ceptad an invitation, but was prevent ed by illness from attending
 The chief concessions made yester- day by the railroad representatives were 9 twenty-five per cent reduction on the car load for cattle shipped here from Wilcox, and reduction of nearly 40 per cent on citrus fruit, including iDEdhSC2s- I5iIOuS anu SEdpGltNl ut SHil- ped from the Salt River valley. Both of these reductions represent a large percentage of the shipments to Bisbee and will mean a large saving to the wholesale and retail merchants. Com bination rates via Benson over the Southern, Pacific were made to apply from Fl Paso.
 After threshing out matters for 8 couple of hours both sides. tfse Board of Trade men and the railroads, re. tired for a rest to the Copper Queen hotel, where lunch was served. After this the discussion was renewed and continued for some time, until both sides were glad to take a rest by in dulging in an auto ride to Naeo. The return was delayed by an accident, which prevented their reaching Bis bee in time to take the afternoon train for Cananea, as was their intention.
 Equal to the emergency, the com mittee appointed by the Board of Trade to act ss a reception commit tee ordered a dinner prepared at the Copper Queen hotel, which was serv- ed about S:20. The guests and sew eral members of the board responded to toasds and the evening passed most pleasantly.
 Messrs. Brown and Bicknell declare their intention of leaving for Cananea this morning.

key to Alyords cell from George Bra win, the jailor Bravin made resist ance, but was shot down by Stiles, who secured the keys, and, liberating Alvord they took what arms and am intuition they could find about the sheriff's office and fled to the noun tains. The news of the jail delivery quickly spread throughout the terri tory and again the San Francisco de tectives began to swarm around the towns of southern Arizona The out laws were reported seen here and there for several weeks. They even wrote joking letters to Scott White, who was then the Cochise couny sher iii, mailing them, or causing them to be mailed from Casas Grande. which had been the home of Stiles. Finally Stiles and AlYord tired of the Arizona hills and went into Mexico where they remained for several years. In the meantime Downing was tried com vieted and sent to the penitentiary, where he served seven years.
 Delivered Up chaeon.
 After Alyord and Stiles had been in Mexico for several years if became known that they had become acquaint' ed with and intimate with Juan Cha con, a murderer who had escaped from the Graham county jail a week before the day set for his execution. Captain Bert Mossman, first captain of the Arizona rangers, succeeded in making a date with Burt Alyord in Mexico and at the conference it was agreed that if Stiles and Alvord would induce Chacon to come across the line so that he could be captured the officers would use their influence to have prosecution of the old train rob bery charge against them stopped Alyord and Stiles in a short time pro posed visit to the pastures of W. C.. Greene, near Hereford, on a horse stealing exhibition to Chacon, who agreed to accompany them. Stiles went into Naco and notified Captain Mossman who went to the camp of the outlaws where he succeeded in arresting Chacon Soon afterwards Stiles and Alvord surrendered to Sheriff Del Lewis at Tombstone and both were released on bond. Alvord was afterward tried on some charge and sent to the Yuma penientiary for two years. He is now said to be in South America. Stiles was never tried for robbery, but soon after re turning from Mexico he went back to that country and held up mining man who was on his way to his min ing camp with money to pay 10 em- ployes. Afterward part of this mon ey was recovered where it had been buried on the Stiles ranch near Naco. The whereabouts of Stiles is unknown but he is supposed to be in Mexico or perhaps in South America with Al word

CITY IS "BUSTED;'
 PAYS IN WARRANTS
Little Doubt But That Ciy'S Promises to Pay Win
 Pass For CaSh

The city is busted" It has been On the verge for some time, for sey- eral months in fact, but the real thing is here now. The city clerk still pays the employees of the city and those to whom it owes bills, in warrants, but there the resemblance to former war rants ends. Heretofore the Bank of Bisbee casaed the warrants upon pre- sentation, but the cashier has a far away look in his eyes when the hold CT of a warrant comes around now.
 Matters are not SO bad as might be taought to exist on first impression, however. It is true that the warrants wIn not be accepted by the banks, for they feel that they are not justified in carrying them for the city at the low rate of interest they get for doing so. when they have to wait so long for their money. As the matter now stands there is little prospect that the warrants of the city will be on a cash basis until late in November. when taxes will come into the city treasury
 The warrants are good. The city of Bisbee is back Of them. But as was stated above. it will probably be some time in Move mber before the city VIII DC III pOsltiOh 70 CdSH tueln-
 The firemen, policemen and other employees of the city are carrying the warrants about, but there is little doubt but that they will be accepted as cash by the merchants.
 It is also to be remembered that the warrants are a promise to pay on the part of the city and that in case pay. ment is delayed they will bear the legal rate of interest until they are redeemed by the city The legal rate is seven per cent This was the opin- ion expressed yesterday by an official lin a position to know.
