THE CRIMES OF cRIMMlNs.

William Crimmins, the hobo who has been an almost constant inmate of the county and city jails during his brief residence in Phoenix. was locked up again yesterday on charge which may hold him for a while. He was standing on the street corner at First Avenue and Washington when Mrs. A. F. Sander of Glendale dropped hand bag from her buggy. It fell into q gutter and a woman on the sidewalk who saw it fall called the attention of Crimmins to it and asked him to re- turn it to the owner. He picked it up. but instead of restoring it he hurried around tha corner. Mrs. Sander rais- ed an alarm and Van Johnson, who happened to be passing, started in pursuit. He overlook CrimmIns who was engaged in removing the contents of the handbag to his pocket. He had already taken out two purses contain ing about $50. Johnson brought him back and compelled him to restore the property to Mrs. Sander About that time. Justice Johnstone appeared on the corner and Crimmins was turned over to him and he telephOned the of- flee of the sheriff. Deputy Adams con duCted him to jail

1t has been and is being sought

Democratic candidate for Congress,
the forces OF organized labor This
attempt has been futile and has been
rendered more SO by, the declaration
OF Samuel Gompers, President OF the
American Federation OF Labor that
George A. Bartlett is regarded by the
Legislative Committee OF that body
as true friend through his efforts
in labors behalf in the hands OF con-
gress.
1t is an insult to the thousands OF
members Of that great body OF organ

they can be misled by misrepresenta-

that George Bartlett is their enemy.
No class Of citizens is more bene-
flied by the enforcement of law and
order, without fear or favor than the
honest, industrious, law-abiding mem.
bers Of organized labor.
Upon the other hand the real enc
mics of organized labor are the non
workers, whose endeavor Is to foment
discomfort and the political dema-
gogues who seek to mislead labor
that they may accomplish some per.

Importance Of Electing a
Democratic Legislature

The importance of electing a Demo
cratic legislature to uphold the hands
of Governor Dickerson in his an
nounced policies, and to enforce the
reforms promised in the Democratic
platform, is paramount.
Unless the Governor can be sup
ported by legislature with pro
gram along the lines promised by
the Democratic platform, these re-
forms cannot be carried out and these
policies cannot be upheld.
At the next session OF the legisla.
ture, the Democratic party intends
to amend the State Police Law and
make the abuses now possible under
1t, impossible. The Democratic party
has given its pledges to do this,
and is the only party in the State to
do so. The Republicans failed 10
mention the State Police Law, made
no promises and are committed to
nothing. In the Democratic party
lies the only hope that the law will
be amended and stripped of its bad
features.
AS a matter of fact, no one has
been injured by the passage OF that
law. Federal troops will never in
wade Nevada again, but the Demo
Gratis intend to Sc that the Jaw is
so amended that no one, by any over
stepping of authority, can be injured
by the law.
A Democratic legislature will see
that Nevada has a new banking law
which will effectually protect deposits
in this State. The Democratic plat
form is on record in favor OF bank
deposit guarantee Jaw similar TO that
which has been successfully tried in
Oklahoma. A Democratic majority in
both houses is needed to secure this.
A Democratic legislature will pass
a direct primary law similar to the
Oregon primary law which guaran-
tees to the people the RUE of their
own affairs through the direct con
troll of the selection of the men who
shall represent them.

who declare that no man planning
violence or destruction of property
or life. nor any blatant demagogus
shall destroy great industry In this
State and bring hunger and want to
the families OF alw-abiding and indus

George Bartlett has proven himself
a true friend of labor. A truer and
better one does not live In this or in
any other State in the Union.
The principle of the Police Bill,

vada. Is in the interest of law-abiding.

On the contrary, II is designed to

such amendments than is George
Bartlett.

PROVES THAT HE, AND NOT
HANSBRouGH FRAMED AND
URGED THE ACT
SHOWS THAT DEMOCRATIC
VOTE PASSED MEASURE
ROOSEVELT LED TO CONSIDER
QUESTION IN BROADER
ASPECTS

In his speeches at different places
in the present campaign, Mr.. Fiani
gan has attempted to reopen the
question as to the authorship of the
National Reclamation Act. He is re
ported as saying:
THE irrigation bill that was pass
ed was the Hansbrough bill, intro
duced by Senator Hansbrough, OF
North Dakota. Senator Newlands and
Senator Hansbrough were both on
the committee which had this pro-
iect under consideration. They
worked together on these measures.
The administration under which the
bill was passed was Republican. II
was a Republican Congress that
forced the bill through and passed
the irrigation law"
This question was fought out in
the national campaign OF 1904 and,
though the Republicans claims were
then absolutely refuted, it is again
renewed by Mr.. Flanagan.
Senator Newlands himself told the
whole story, at Sheridan, Wyoming
June 80, 1905. in the presence OF
the Director of the Reclamation Ser
vice and number of Senators and
Congressman, several of whom had
worked with him for the passage OF
the act and all of whom were per
sonally familiar with its history.
Not one of these men disputed his
statements at the time, nor have they
done so since.
This is proof positive that the
statements were correct in every par
ticular, for the whole party knew
about the controversy over the au'
thorship of the bill.
NEWLANDs' STATEMENT.
Referring to the history OF the
Reclamation Act, Mr.. Newlands stat
ed that after many years OF agitation,
the Western men had secured from
both the Democratic and Republican
parties a declaration in their plat
forms favoring national irrigation,
and at the session of Congress next
ensuing (the session constituting the
last of McKinley's first term), the
question was discussed by Shafroth
and Bell of Colorado and himself as
to whether they should press the
question at that session or allow 1t to
90 over until the first session or
the succeeding administration. I,
At that time there were but three
bills in Congress providing for i'm
mediate construction, these bills be
ing presented by Shafroth and Bell
of Colorado for projects in that State
and by himself for a project in Ne
yada. A hearing before the lrriga
ton Committee of the House was
Impossible.
AT that Tine said Mr.. Newlands
I'VE could not even get session VI
the Committee on Irrigation, so op
posed were the ruling forces OF ths
House to any consideration OF tht
question, and the result was that II
order to get the matter considered
we urged a hearing before the Com
mittee on Public Lands-though tina
committee did not have jurisdiction
of the subject-through academia
jurisdiction acquired by the fact tina
Mr.. Chafroth's bill had been referre'
inadvertently to that committee.
DIFFERENCE OF OPINION.
at soon developed that there wa
a great difference of opinion amonI
the Western members regarding tn
