SAVES CHILD AFTER ORDEAL.
Woman Holds Babe Above Water In
 Cistern for Ten Hours.


 HOLLAND, Mich, November g. For ten hours, Mrs. William Weiss of yriesland. stood up to her neck in water in cister to save a two-year-old boy. Mrs. Weiss saw the baby, child of a neighbor, fall into her cistern. She instantly plunged in after him, and, finding him at the bottom, held him above the water. She called for help, but tho cistern is ten feet deep and no one heard her.
 Late in the afternoon she was missed and neighbors began a search. It was long after dark before one of the party chanced to think of the cistern. Look ing down into it by means of lantern, he saw the plucky woman, still hold ing the little boy above water. Her voice was worn to whisper, and she was rescued in fainting condition. She is seriously i'll from the exposure, but it is thought that she will recover.

STATEHOOD AT THE COMING
 SESSION OF CONGRESS

There IS no taxpayer, property owner, mine owner, home owner, prospector, mechanic or laborer in the Territory of Arizona but that is vitally interested in the question of statehood. Mark Smith in his farewell speech at Tucson made it perfectly plain that he does not expect statehood to be secured at the coming session of congress, tho succeed ing session, or several sessions to come, even though he should be elected dele gate. Here are his words; "I have nothing in the world against Ralph Cameron, but want to say this. He is absolutely incompetent by training and life to get on the floor of the house of representatives to defend what know yin be the assaults made on the statehood bill at the NEXT OR SUC- CEEDING SESSIONS OF CON GRESS." |"
 A vote for Cameron is vote for Taft and vote for Taft is vote of absolute assurance of statehood for Arizona be- fore March 3, 1909. How sincere the democratic party is in its promises of statehood was made plain in Mark Smiths farewell speech to the people of Arizona at Tucson when he confessed in plain language that no hope for state hood was in sight at the coming session or at succeeding sessions of congress.
 Upon a prior occasion Mark Smith de- livered himself of the following. Just listen:
 "Mr. Kibbey stated at Wickenburg the other night that no matter who was elected, Arizona would be admitted as a state at the coming session of con. gross. I wish he would continue to make that remark in all his speeches but CANNOT SAY THAT EXPECT IT AS SOON as they say it will come. ''
 From the above it will be seen that it is the intention of Mark to at least passively oppose statehood as he has been doing for the past twenty years. Things be does not expect to happen are the things he does not want to happen.

always have done in your private afs fairs, you cannot but recognize the claims of the republican candidates to your endorsement and support.
 Some of these gentlemen whose names the independent voter will find on the ticket are up for reelection. Wherever this is the case the individual asking your support is n tried and true official, with record that is unimpeach. able in the public service. This is the case with Dan R. Williamson, l.. l.. Henry, W. O. Kellner and "Bert" Pratt. They have all given tho public good service in their respective capac- ities, and an assurance IS thereby given of a continuance of the same. They arc not experiments.
 Lyman c. Woods stands almost in the same position, as he formerly occupied tho position of chairman of the board of supervisors, and it is not SO long since but what the people can recollect the excellent service he rendered them in that capacity.
 The new candidates are Wm. Sparks for sheriff, II. II. Huffer for recorder, Tom Flanigan for probate judge and Howard C. Hopkins for county survey or. These gentlemen arc all well and fayorably known to the people of Globe and this county. Each one was selected by the delegates to the convention on account of his individual qualifcationg and fitness for the office. For instance, Il Tom Flanigan is lawyer and just tho man for the probate judges office. "Bill" Sparks is a peace officer, who has received the thanks of two govern ors of this territory for work well done in his line; Huffer is clerk and an office man, and is well equipped to give the best satisfaction in tho recorder 's office, and MT. Hopkins is civil engi. neer and surveyor by profession, and stands high for experience and profci. ency. No better ticket was ever nom- mated by any other convention in this county.
 Joe Sabourin and Frank Clark arc the nominees for constables of this precinct. Both young men deserve election. They arc abundantly qualified to act as peace officers of Glob prcinct.
 The ticket, from Chas. T. Martin, candidate for the legislative council, to Frank Clark, candidate for constable of Globe precinct, is the best ever se- lected and offered to the independent voters of this county. They deserve your support today.

 IS A DEMOCRAT A MUD TURTLE

Perhaps the most comprehensive and answer to the question, What IS a democrati" is "mud turtle" The old.time negroes on southern planta- tions have a fathomless affection, ad- miration and veneration for the turtles occasionally caught in tho "branch bottoms. |" While they dearly love the chicken, the turkey, and especially the 'posum, they love the turtle more than all, because they say that it contains all good flesh that is edible. In every turtle ia a slice of chicken, slice of goose, . slice of rabbit, a slice of 'possum, a slice of duck, a slice of eel, slice of partridge, and so on through the list. In the same way to. day "democrat is an all.embracing term, equally inclusive of the govern ment ownership and free silver of Will liam Jennings Bryan of 1896, and Of the sound money and strict.construc- tion.of. he-constitution of one Alton E.

Predictions of members of municipal
boards that the city councils policy OF

upon that body are likely to be full
filled at the courcil meeting next Mon
day.
Members of the Angeleno Heights
Improvement association, headed by
Fielding ]. Stilson, will appear before
the council and threaten suit to re-
strain collection of asses ssments to pay
the cost Of the outfall sewer on Sunset
boulevard and neighbnring streets.
Residents of Angeleno Heights are
opposing the assessment because they
think that the part of the sewer con-
struction which is a general benefit
should be paid by bond issue. They
will also represent that, while a por-
ton of the work is properly assessable
against their lots, the cost of the work
is SIS a lot, although it should not cost
over $40 lot.
The council can appropriate money
for the sewer construction and the An
geleno Heights Improvement associa-
ton will endeaVor to convince the
councilmer that this should be done.
If the council is obduratC the associa-
ton will take the matter into the

lished at Seattle and devoted to adver-
tising Americas attractions, arrived
in Los Angeles recently and is busy
securing sketches of places of interest
about the city and of prominent local
men. for early use in his magazine.
The idea of such magazine was
born at Salt Lake City, but the scene
of publication was later shifted TO Sc
attie where it has been doing good
work, acquainting the American people
with the natural beauties of their own
country. The motto of the periodical
is: "See Europe if you must, but see
America first"
Mr. Heisley is a personal friend of

WILMINGTON is NO
FRIEND OF S. P.'S
President of Board of Trustees Says
Railroad Interests Must Look
Out for Them
selves
[snecial TO The Herald ]

WILMINGTON, Oct. 15.-"So far as
Wilmington is officially concerned the
Southern Pacific must take care of
itself" said j. c. Brennan, president
of the Wilmington board of trustees,
today referring to the railroads at
tempt to influence action against the
tideland suits The trustees are look
ing out for Wilmington and Whining
ton only, and are not at the beck and
call of private interests, no matter
how large or important
1--WE have no official communication
from the Southern Pacific to the board
regarding interference on the tideland
suits. If the MATTER should be taken
up by the trustees there will be no
secrecy and the public will know all
about any action taken. For ourselves
we recognize no tidelands or tideland
claims of any sort in the Wilmington
limits.
Wilmington people are enthusiastic
over the future, and it would be sui
eide to spoil it now by knuckling to
corporations"
Some fear has been expressed by
citizens Of Wilmington that the COM
pletion of the proposed municipal
wharf would be followed by action
giving the Southern Pacific full con-
troll of it, and that the city would be
placed in the position of paying for
the wharf and letting the railroad get
the profit While making it public only
in name. This is combated by the
trustees.
I'VE shall have a public wharf in
every respect" said Trustee opp.
while the Southern Pacific would at
present get the hauling it will not
control the wharf. We hope to go
further and have railroad competition
as well, although there is nothing we
can give out at present. But the wharf
will not be constructed and then seWed
up; you can say that emphaticallv."
The trustees held an adjourned meet
ing tonight and went over Engineer
Dessery's details of the, proposed mu-
nicipal channel and turning basin
dredging and the harbor work in order
to have everything ready for the con-
tractors who desire to submit bids to
City Clerk Gannaway. The trustees
will have every detail arranged to IA
cilitate quick work when the dispo-
sition OF the bonds is finally closed.
