THINK WELL FIRST.

The people of Arizona owe it to the
good name of the territory-to it's
long history of achievements, to its
marvellous growth and development
to its sterling citizenship, and last to
hope Of glorious future, not to place
an incompetent untried man in the
halls of congress. The record of Mark
Smith is an open book, he has guided
Arizona over all the shoals that ever
confronted her in the halls of con-
gress, time that trouble and lasting
disaster ever come to abide in our
homes, was the sears that Mark
Smith was absent from that law max
ing body. The history of this ma
ton for the past twenty years. has
been the history of trust and cor
poration Iegislation-it has been a per-
iod Of the creation OF great corporate
wealth, and the congress of the Unit
ed States, aside from the representa-
lives of the south has been the agent
and abettor of these gigantic schemes
to get rich quick Arizona is a new
and almost unexplored field for this
class of business pirates, her thou
sands of acres of timber and agricul-
tural lands offer phenomenal induce
ments to this class of land thieves.
Oregon, Washington, California, wy
oming and even New Mexico have all
felt the blight of these land grabbing
gentlemen-but ArizDna-dear old Ar
izona, like her sisters, the southern
states of the union, has always had
an honorable, unpurchasable man on
the floor of congress. who has sacred
ly guarded her every interest. Do
you want to change this condition.
Do you want to elect a man with
out the ability to protect your inter-
ests, even though be wished to do so?
We believe the people of Arizona are
satisfied to let well enough alone-we
do not believe that the Cameron cry
of Statehood" which is buncombe,
pure and simple. viii blind the public
to this other. and far more important
proposition. Stay with the man that
protects you and your homes. and not
take chances upon electing man of
Cameron's ability or record to meet
these great problems as they come up
in the national legislature. Think
well before you make such a change.

Jack White. Republican candidate

Jack White, Republican candidate
for sheriff, made the political mistake
of his campaign yesterday afternoon
when he "butted in" an entered into
wordy argument with Arizona's
delegate about some Indian claim
that the department has been holding
up at Washington for the past
twenty-five years. There are hun
dreds of such old Indian claims there
and no power on earth seems able
to hurry their decision. Jack White
acted yesterday like a candidate that
was sore and sure of defeat. His
,grand-stand play with Mark Smith
cost him not less than a hundred
votes. Jack White was elected two
years ago by Democratic votes, but
no Republican candidate can attack
Mark Smith by word of mouth and i'm
pugn his motives or actions in con-
gress and get away with it in Demo
cratic Cochise.

A WORD TO
ARIZONANS.

Today the most important cleo
ton ever held in the territory of
Arizona will take rlaee-an election
fraught with great and lasting respon-
sibilities to the people of Arizona, i'm
portant because Of its bearing upon
the election that will soon follow for
the men who will officer the new state
of Arizona.
The question of statehood is not in
any sense political one. both parties
have gone on record for Arizona's a6-
mission at the earliest possible date,
and we feel confident that no matter
how the national election may turn.
Arizona will be made state before
the 4th OF March, next
Having this IN view. realizing that
it is the final battle Of the war-that
democratic future success or defeat
depends largely upon this contest. we
ask the men of Arizona who love their
party, who honor its traditions. its
hopes and aspirations. to stand true
to Marcus A. Smith, who has always
born denoracy's feg to victory. and
upheld the honor OF his party and his
territory.

NEW YORK. Nov. 2.-There is no
figure better known in the financial
district than the Flag Man" For
years, in all weathers and on all
days but Sundays. he mas stood at
the head OF Wall street with his stock
of flags and patriotic buttons, and. on
account OF his venerable appearance,
has escaped the annoyance from the
irresponsible messenger boys that
beset the ordinary vender in the
street
The Flag Man" is David E. Flem-
ing. He served through the civil
war with the Thirteenth regiment, that
went to the front from Brooklyn and
was one OF the pathetically large num-
Der OF beterans who found themselves
unable as they grew old. to overcome
the financial set back incurred in ser
vice. Originally the Flag Man" dealt
only in the flags of his country, but in
late years the opportunity to sell
flags of other nations caused him to
enlarge his stock.

San Francisco Cal.-For more than
a year the Examiner has kept up a
bitter attack. not only upon Heney.
but upon Spreckels. Burns. Langdon
and all others connected with the
prosecution. Cartoons have been used
almost constantly to belittle the graft
fighters. For Inany months the Ex-
aminer has run this line on its edi-
torial page:
1T is 1855 days since the prosecution
began and no one is in the peniten-
tiary yet"
The figures were changed daily.
Saturday for the first time this line
was missing. A two-column wide edi-
torial said this of the man the paper
has tried in every way to belittle:
The attempt TO kill Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Francis ]. Heney by an
ex-convict at the moment when Heney
had brought RIef to the prison door
and seemed TO be in the very act of
thrusting the arch-grafter into the
place where he belongs, is one of the
most regrettable occurrences ever
witnessed in San Francisco or any
other city. The speed with which pun
ishment is meted out to the man who
struck down Heney will blaze on the
world with the speed with which pun
ishment shall be melted out to the
grafters."

sUMEs GOVERNMENT OF
THE COUNTRY. .

Peking.-The Emperor died shortly
after s o'clock Saturday afternoon.
The Emperor had been i'll for long
time and during recent audiences with
foreign representatives he was unable
in an erect position. 1t was evident
for long time that he would be unable
to Withstand crisis which sooner or
later must develop In the disease from
which he was suffering. Recent eli
matte extremes caused fatal complica-
lions.
The report of Friday that the Dow
aged Empress of China was MORALLY Ill
was confirmed by the foreign board
of the government.
At the moment of the death of the
Emperor the Dowager Empress own
death chamber chair was waiting in
the court yard.
Tsze Hsi An, the Dowager Empress
of China, autocratic head of the govern
ment, which she directed without sue
cessful Interference since 1861, and
without protest since 1881, died at
O'Clock Sunday afternoon.
The announcement of the Dowager
Empress death was official and fol-
lowed closely upon the announcement
that Kuang Hsu. the Emperor, had died
Saturday at o'clock in the afternoon,
but 1t is believed the deaths occurred a
considerable time before that set down
in the official statement.
An edict issued at o'clock Sunday
morning placed upon the throne Prince
Pu vi, the three-year-old son of Prince
Chun, the regent of the empire, in ac-
cordance with a promise given by the
Dowager Empress soon after the mar
riage of Prince Chun in 1908. An edict
issued on Friday made Pu vi heir pre-
sumptive.
The foreign legations We're notified
Sunday morning by the foreign board
of the death of the Emperor and the
succession of Prince Pu vi. Troops
have been in readiness for several days
to quell any disorders that might arise
on the death of Kuang Hsu, and the
possibility of uprisings was made
greater because of the fact that the
death of the Dowager Empress was
known to be close at hand.
Prince Chun, the regent, has ordered
the vicerOys and governors to take pre-
cautions for the continuation of the adj
ministration of the provinces as here
tofore and he has ordered a hundred
days of mourning. The court will 60
into mourning for three years.
Picking already has been greatly
transformed. All red objects have been
removed and blue substituted. The peo-
pie learned this evening of the death
of the Dowager Empress and although
the Chinese are in no wise emotional
they showed that they were profoundly
impressed by the passing of their pow
erful ruler. The foreigners in the city
are watching the strange ceremonies
4 with great interest. At the palace
elaborate rites are being observed, ana
flood of edicts has been sent forth.
Deathbed observances of 5000 years
ago marked the passing of the Emperor

vIcT DISCHARGED FROM
JURY PANEL.
IN RUFF BRIBERY CASE
DRAMATIC CLIMAX IN SAN FRAN.
CISCO GRAFT AND BRIB-
ERY CASES.

San Francisco, Cal.-The San Fran
cisco bribery graft cases had dramat-
ic climax late Friday when Assistant
District Attorney Francis Heney, who
has been in charge of the prosecution
during its tortuous course of two years.
was shot and seriously wounded in the
crowded courtroom by Morris Haas, an
ex-convict. The shooting occurred
during a brief recess in the third trial
of Abraham Ruef on charge of brib-
cry.
Heney Is now resting easily in the
Lane hospital, and the physicians say
his wound Is not fatal Haas is in the
city prison.
Heney, as he lay on the operating
table, said: II will live to prosecute
both Haas and Ruef."
The assassin is saloonkeeper, who
was drawn upon the jury panel in the
second trial of Ruef and who, after
having been temporarily passed by
both sides, was exposed by Heney as
an ex-convict.
Heney dramatically produced pho
tograph of Haas taken at San Quentin
penitentiary in convicts garb, with
cropped head and his number across
his breast.
Haas collapsed in court, admitting he
had been convict and was immediate
ly discharged from the jury.
After the shooting Friday Haas said:
''Heney exposed my record in court
and ruined my business. am even
with him now and do not care what
happens to me-
