any considerable extent.
Talk about stringency in financial
circles! Bat Nelson blew in from
California week or so ago, and af-
ter brief preparation gave an exh BIZ
ton in Ogden lasting some IS min
utes which yielded him $1,000 or
more. Or are we so derned easy?
Harry Joseph denies the story that
he had his pockets picked while re
turning from the Nelson Clifford
fight at Ogden Monday night. From
what is known of the manner in
which he bet on the outcome Of the
mill, il is evident that he tells the
strict truth
DR.. Tissot, a French scientist, has
invented a respiratory apparatus
which can be fastened to a worker
without hindering at all the move
ments OF the body end which will
permit him to work for hours in a
poisonous atmosphere. The appara-
tus will be invaluable in cases of min
ing accidents. Mining men in this
part of the country should at once
test the invention, as it may be the
means of saving many lives
Upon performing an operation on
young Finn for he purpose Of
easing a pain in the chest, a Mon
tana surgeon found two pieces Of
rubber tubing to one of which was
attached safety pin, which had been
left in the cavity by New York sur

operation Notwithstanding this,

Battling Nelson, the durable Dane,
las again brought himself to the
front as live figure in the pugilistic
world by his defeat of Jack Clifford
at Ogden the first of the week. As
rule one drubbng such as he re-
ceived from Cans in Goldfield about
settles a fighter. Nelson, however,
is living example to prove that
while an athelete will eschew the
alchol route it takes more than one
pounding to settle him.
And now il is Hans p. Freeze who
is trying his hand on the Mormon
question in he East He held forth
to a New Jersey audience the other
day, and of course abused the church
soundly, stating that it was stepped
in politics to the lips. There is no
doubt but that he looked mighty
closely after the gate receipts after
the show was over. After all, the
wonder is if Hans thinks it pays.

southern Nevada, and he is only one
of whole lot who have done like
wise. AS they look at it, when the
Park fails, none of the other Utah
camps are to be depended on.
Another theatre horror is now
racking the nerves of the people of
the country. At Boyertown, Pa, an
opera house burned to the ground
causing the death of $50 people, We'd
nesday of this week. The matter of
exits of places of amusement is one
which calls for the most strenuous
inspection upon the part of the Of
fcials on which. the duty depends.
Mayor Bransford in his initial COM
munication to the Salt Lake council
took up this matter and urged that
all the provisions of the ordinance
relating to this matter be attended
to at once. There are at the present
time many places of amusement in
the city. These are nightly crowded,
and the proper authorities should
see to it that the recommendments
of the mayor are carried out to the
letter.
All is not smooth in the office OF
the City Auditor. Mr.. Alff was one
of the officials of the city who did
not appoint his assistants. Thereby
hangs a tale. 1t will be remembered
that one of the most persistent work
ers in the American ranks was Mrs.
Ida M. Savage. Some little time be-
fore the late election this lady mar
ried man by the name of Samuel
. I. Goodman. As reward for her
labors her husband received an APP
pointment in the auditors office. Now
the auditor has signified his desire
TO appoint Goodman as the head Of
the bureau which has charge of the
licenses of the city, but the gentle
man has in some way incurred the
opposition of certain members of the
council and they propose to fight his
appointment to finish. Things are
at a standstil and it is hard to tell
which way the cat vii. jump. A way
out of the difficulty may be found
by Mr.. Aft The lady and her hus-
band have separated.
1t seems that Jake Raleigh is hav-
ing the figh. of his life to maintain
his position at the head of the streets

is not without aspirants for his job.
OF course all people belonging to the
great and patriotic American" par y
only have the good of the city at
heart. They think that each can
serve the people so much better than
the one in office. 1t would almost
be treason to even hint that they have
an eye to the money the office car,

COUNTY SEAT PETITION
HAS 800 SIGNERS
Tombstone Citizens Preparing
to Offer Strenuous 0ppo-
Sition at Proper Time.

Unless some unforeseen circun-
stances present themselves the voters
of Cochise county, at the general cleo
ton in November, will have the oppor-
tunity of deciding the future location
Of the county seat.
That our friends at Tombstone are
alive to the situation was evidenced
last Saturday evening when a mass
meeting was held to devise ways and
means of offsetting the movement. It
is reported that a committee, COM
posed of Tombstone business men, was
appointed to raise funds to defray the
expenses of a contest and that attor-
neys will be engaged to obstruct every
move made by Bisbee looking toward
the location of the county seat in this
city.
Yesterday afternoon r. ". Norton,
who is circulating the petition asking
for the removal of the court house
from Tombstone to Bisbee, stated
that more than six hundred bona fide
signatures had already been affixed.
This is more than half of the number
1850. Miners working in
the Copper Queen have not been seen
and progresSso far made makes il evil
dent that very few signers outside of
the district will be required.
Candidates for the nomination on
both tickets are shying away from
the petition They find themselves
placed in an embarrassing position.

THE APPEAL TO THE YOUNG MAN
A BID To THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS
To MARCH UP AND Be BRANDED c. D P,

establishment of the Land Court that
settled the vexatious land grants in
Arizona which then threatened to de-
stroy the territory.
The old Democrats, the young
Democrats, the big Democrats. the
little Democrats. all know that Mark
Smith, from Arizona, is recognized in
Washington as one of the a.bIes rep
resentatiyes from any state or terri
tory in the Union; they know that
when he rises in his place to speak he
is accorded close and respectful at
tention; they know that he is the old
est member of the House of Repre-
sentatives today in point of service,
and they have the satisfaction and
pleasure of knowing that for twenty
five years he has represented this
territory without one bFemish on his
character. always a true friend and
faithful servant of the people who
elected him.
At last the Republican party has de-
clared for statehood for Arizona. The
Democratic platform has so declared
for the past fifteen years. There is
always joy over the return of
political sinner. whether it be an
aggregation of sinners as typified by
the Republican party, or some poor
benighted individual, but the place for
repentant sinners is on the back seats
during their probation period. 1t is
no use for the Republicans to set up
the old cry about it being necessary
to send a Republican to congress in
order to secure statehood. The Re
publican party has declared for state
hood. The Democratic party has de-
clared for statehood, but the people
of Arizona want the same man on the
Job this time who knows how to draft
a statehood bill; who knows how 10
make the proper motion at the proper
time. who knows how to address the
House OF Representatives, who can
secure moDe for Arizona in the pro-
visions of that bill than any stranger
we could send there. no matter how
many glad hands he might have.
The young Democrats and the old
Democrats. the wives. mothers, sisters
and sweethearts of Democrats, know
that Mark Smith has fought the good
fight for Arizona and its people and
now. upon the eve of success, they
propose to honor him again and to re-
ioice with him when he carries the
statehood bill to the White House
with his own hands for William J.
Bryan to sign.

SOME DEVELOPMENTS
ON STOCK BOARDS
The Effect Was to Throw the
Market Into a State of
Seeming UnSettIenent.

NEW YORK, Sept 10.-There were
developments with a real important
bearing on values today compared with
the unsubstantial, fabric tips on
rumors which have made UP the in
huences on the stock market for some
time past. The effect was to throw
the market into a state of seeming I'M
settlement, reflected by constant fever
lsh fluctuations, causing a final sharp
break in prices.
Reading was not able to detach
Erie from the prevailing tendency of
the Hartman group, although B. &
o. got the benefit of the division. Hi
nois Central also moved in sympathy
with the Southern group apart from
any other of Harriman's. The most
influential incidents of the day were
the decision of the United States cir
cult court against the constitutionality
OF the commodities clause of the Hep
burn laws, the passing of the Ameri.
can Locomotive dividend. and a rise
in call money rates to a higher figure
than was touched since early in March
The Importance to the anthracite car
riers Of relief from the provisions of
this enactment is unquestionable. To
the loss of the advantage OF centering
the control of anthracite production

embarrassment of disassociating the

cages in railroad and coal properties

not unexpected. The violent break in
the stock showed, however, that the

In the issue of the Bisbee Evening
Miner of September 3. Mr.. Lew Col
Inns, the same being fresh from the
alfalfa regions around Phoenix. and
who has grown sleek and impudent
while fatenning at the federal official
pie counter in Arizona, addresses an
official communication to the young
men of Cochise county, entitled. An
Appeal to the Young Man. The
Appeal 10 the Young Man" is made
in the interest of the Republican ticket
in Coehise county. which ticket Mr..
Collins is here 10 assist and Incl
dentally. is being well paid for has
time and trouble.
After a careful reading of the APP
peal onesfs forced to the conclusion
that Mr. Collins is consumed with a
burning desire for the young Demo
Gratis of Cochise county TO kick over
the traces, call the "ole man" fool,
and stampede pell nell into Lewis
open arms and branded G. D. P. Lew
is Just dying for the young men TO
take hold of things and help him push
the Republican elephant over the line
in November.
In one paragraph MIR. Collins says:
must We SldtCAAOOu
and take her place in the affairs of
this great nation. Every industry will
be benefited thereby. The election
of our own officials will give us a
voice in national affairs. such as We
should have had years ago.
Win the official press agent from
Phoenix please tell his young men
readers in his next appeal WHY
ARIZONA HAS NOT BEEN GRANT
ED STATEHOOD DURING THE
PAST TWELVE YEARS?
It is a well known fact that the Re
publican party has been in complete
control of all branches of the govern
ment during . this period. WHERE
LIES THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR
HAVING KEPT ARIZONA IN TER
RITORIAL BONDAGE?
win Mr.. Collins also please kindly
explain to his young mems class how
Mark Smith twice secured the passage
of a bill through the House of Repre-
sentatives' admitting Arizona to sepa'
rate and independent statehood, and
why a Republican senate throttled
the measure.
At some future date will Mr.. Col
Inns also please incorporate in one of
his articles the fact that it was a
Republican President and a Repubh-
can House of Representatives who
conceived the scheme of joint-state-

hood, which would have been con-
sumated ere this, had it not been for
the valiant efforts of every Demo
cratic member of the House and Sen
ate, assisted by that fearless champ
ion of the right, Senator Foraker, of
Chic. Yes, Arizona should have been
admitted to- statehood long before this
writing, and the Republican party is
responsible for the delay. The young
men of Cochise county don't require
any information on this subject. They
are wen posted on the facts.
But a little further along in the
Appeal we find this gem Of untruth:
I'VE can not expect statehood or
any other benefit in Arizona II we
persistently send to congress a man
who has shown by his record that he
can do absolutely nothing for sur
people"
The greatest achievement of Mark
Smiths long and useful career, de-
voted to the best interests of Arizona,
was his defeat of the Republican joint
statehood scheme. II was a bold
stroke to wipe ont of existence a
Democratic state and peon its peo-
pie to the overwhelming foreign popu-
lation of New Mexico. Ask any Dem
ocrat. or Republican. who journeyed
to Washington when the statehood
fight was on, and he will tell You
Mark Smith won the fight. Without
his influence: without the assistance
Of his friends. the day was lost.
Theodore Roosevelt with all of his
political patronage was unable to &C
complish his hearts desire. and Joe
Cannon was forced down on the floor
of the House TO make explanations for
the first time on record The young
Democrats are pretty well familiar
with the history of what Mark Smith
did On that occasion
At present the United States gov
eminent is spending between two and
three million dollars on federal en-
terprises in Arizona. The old Demo
Gratis of Cochise county, and most of
the younger generation, know that
Mark Smith made the first speech in
the House in favor of government re-
clamation of the arid lands of the
west. and at every session of con-
gress, has laboTed early and late with
officials of the interior department for
the expenditure of a lust proportion
