holding Of veto, he goes to the peniten.
tiary, under the laws of the land"
That was all. Not reference to
Cannon in it, apparently, and he had
not alluded to Cannon in the preceding
part Of his speech. It was all strictly
parliamentary. Yet not one Of his
hearers has the slightest doubt about
the point, which was that If Cannon
had done in Arizona what he had done
in Washington, he would have gone to
the penitentiary.
This ability Of Smiths artistic fay
ing has been demonstrated often
enough and was demonstrated once be-
fore at this session, when the statehood
bill was jemmed through the house.
Tawney of Minnesota had been one of
the leading insurgents; had been in con-
ference with Smith, and assured the
friends of Arizona Of his undying
friendship. The speaker applied the
party lash to him, and rawney was
forced into camp. But 1t was not
enough for the remorseless speaker that
Tawney should vote against his friends;
he must speak against them, too. So
Towney had to get up and deliver the
best apology he could for his course,
and in doing so he again repeated his
protestations of friendship for Arizona
Then Mark Smith obtained the floor
He walked down the aisle until he could
look directly in the face of the con-
science stricken Tawney, and said In a
voice shaking with emotion:
"And Joab said to Amasa, Art thou
in health, my brother7' and Joab took
Amasa by the hand with the right hand
to kiss him.
but Amasa took no heed Of the
sword that was In Joah's hand; so he
smote him Herewith in the fifth rib
and shed out his bowels to the ground.
Tawney spread his fingers over his
face 50 that the frautically applauding
house might not see his expression; but
the deep red that dyed his face crept
up to his forehead and only disappear
ed at the roots of his hair.
A delegate in congress cannot vote
or make speech except when mat
tiers come up which affect his own ter
ritory. There have been many dele
gates who have lived their lives and
disappeared without leaving any record
because Of their lack of opportunity.
Mr.. Smith is an exception. He has
shown great skill in his management Of
the fight for Arizona. He has been
back Of many of the moves made by
more distinguished statesmen. His heart
is wrapped up in the cause of Arizona,
and he eats, dreams and sleeps Ari-
zona.

ally howl went up Mr.. Birdno be-
came at once an object Of their wrath.
An appeal was made TO the board Of
supervisors of that county for relief.
The board, fearing the power Of these
companies, very promptly sat down up
on Mr.. Birdno and sustained the contsn-
ticn of the companies. Mr.. Birdno car
ried the matter to the courts, and when
the matter reached the supreme court,
and not until then, did Governor Kib-
hey or any other republican take hand
in the proceeding. These are the plain
facts: but with their usual gall, they
lay claim TO all the honor Of initial
ing" the whole matter.

Every voter Of ella county should
read, digest and compare the platforms
adopted by the county conventions Of
the democrats and republicans. The
democrats especially invite all voters to
do this. Their platform is plain and
outspoken, whils that Of the repubN-
cans is not to be commended for its
frankness. It is silent on many things
Of the very greatest interest to the PEG
pie Of the county, and makes claims that
are not based upon the foundation of
truth. It is Of the former that we
shall speak at this time, leaving the lat
ter for separate attention.
The platform Of the democratic party
contains plank upon the matter Of
regulating rates Of fares and freights
upon the railroads, which we take pleas
ure in presenting TO the people on ac-
count Of its showing the Arm stand
taken by the party upon this most i'm
portant subject:
1--WE assert that the conditions In
Arizona do not at this TINA justify
the imposition upon the people Of
this territory by the railroad cor
porations of maximum fare Of six
cents per mile, and we urge upon
the next legislative assembly, IRE
spsctive Of party animation, the ne
cessity of the passage Of law
which, within constitutional limita-
lions, may be enforced, to the end
that exhorbitant charges in railroad
freight and passenger rates within
this territory and unjust discrimina-
tons shall utterly cease. We believe
that the railroad corporations Of
this territory should be subjected to
the control of a commission which
shall be vested with the powers
granted to like commissions in the
different states Of this union, and
we pledge our representatives in the
next legislative assembly to the en-
actment Of any law which will re-
suit in the accomplishments Of these
reforms
Upon this matter the republican coun-
ty platform is absolutely silent. The
silence Of that party upon that and all
other matters affecting the great cor
porations that own and operate 1t, is
easily accounted for, The makers Of
republican platforms know their mas
ter's voice" and wisely heed 1t. They
know that they must be silent upon
such matters; and, as the makers of
that party's platforms are usually the
piecounter fellows, that point Is always
well looked afer.

REPUBLICAN GALL

One OF the most remarkable claims
made by the republicans of this county
in their platform is that Governor Kib-
hey, Through his initiative" has
brought about the correction Of abuses
in territorial taxation. They say:
1--WE call attention to the admin
istration Of Governor Joseph II.
Kibbey. and proudly point to his
achievements in the substantial re-
duction in taxation Through his
initiative, abuses in territorial taxa
ton have been remedied, and we
have today the lowest rate in the
history Of the territory
That they should claim the .initia-
tive" of the movement which led to the
reduction Of taxes in this territory, is,
we believe, one Of the greatest displays
of political gall that has ever been made
in any country or at any time. They
know full well that the credit Of taking
the first steps that brought about a
reformation Of tax evils that for years
existed in this territory, does not be-
long to Governor Kibbey nor to any
other republican in Arizona. This much
Is true: After the matter was started,
Governor Kibbey seeing 1t was most
popular movement, took II up, and hav-
ing the power to do so, pushed 1t to
success.
A little history on this subject may
be Of much benefit to the republicans,
and we take pleasure in giving It. But,
first, let us assure them that there has
been no reduction" in taxation. The
truth is that more taxes are paid into
the territorial and county treasures to-
day than at any other time. But there
has been REFORMATION in taxation
that has taken great part Of the bur-
den of supporting the territorial and
county governments from the shoulders
of the farmers and laborers, and placed
it, where it properly belonged, upon the
mining corporations, which have grown
wealthy from the wonderful mineral re-
sources of the territory without bearing
fair portion Of taxation. This evil
has been remedied in great measure,
not by the Initiative of the move
ment which brought about, not ere
duction," but reform of taxation be-
longs to John Birdno, now and for many
years assessor Of Graham county.
Mr.. Birdno knew long before he be
came assessor of Graham county, as al
most every body else knew that the
great mining corporations Of Arizona
were not paying anything like the por-
iton Of taxes that they should; and,
when he became assessor of that county
he undertook to remedy the evil by com
polling them to bear their just portion
of the burden Of maintaining the terri
torial and county governments. AS q
starter, Mr.. Birdno raised their assess
ments to sum Ave or six times as high
as they had ever been before. The cor
porations whose assessments he raised
were the Detroit, Arizona Copper, and
the Shannon mining companies. Mater

NEW YORK TIMES PRAISES SMITH


(From tho New York Times)
When, last Thursday, Mark Smith
stung Speaker Cannon into taking the
floor in his own defense he accomplished
something that no representative has
ever been able to do.
Mark Smith is not representative;
he is a voteless delegate, admitted TO
the floor in handouts. If Arizona ever
becomes state in his lifetime, he will
be senator; at present he occupies the
most insignificant place allotted to any
body in the top branches of congress.
For a delegate to make himself heard,
TO achieve high and respected position
among his more fortunate colleagues is
well nigh impossible.
Mark Smith, however, has accomp-
hshsd it by sheer force Of character
and ability. and If his territory ever be-
comes state she will enter the national
councils with one senator whose posi-
ton In the capitol Is already made, and
her voice will outweigh that Of some
eastern states-New York, for instance.
When Cannon took the floor he was
wild with rage and his face was red to
the top Of his bald head. He had In
tended to fay Smith, but as he began
speaking he got cooler and realized
the fatal mistake he would make in so
doing and his speech tapered of into a
simple defense of himself.
Smith had "got under his skin" as
no previous critic had ever done. The
savage personal attack Of shackleford
had moved him not in the least. John
Sharpe Williams criticisms had an
noyed him, but had not provoked him
into taking the floor. The reason for
Smiths success was the extraordinary
artistic nature of the trimming which
the delegate gave. 1t is In this line of
attack that Smith excels, and there is
no one in congress who can match him
Ia it.
Whereas Shackleford and williams
had attacked the speaker directly, Mr..
Smith never mentioned him. He did
not allude to the house machine, TO Mr..
Cannon nor to anyone else. Reading
through his speech no one uniformed
about the progress of the statehood bill
would see anything in it more than a
vague criticism of persons unknown.
Yet the whole thing was whitening de-
nunciation Of the speaker. That is why
1t was artistic.
This 10 the sentence that dashed the
speaker TO ungoyernable fury and made
him leave the chair: There is a law
IN Arizona that If one legislator trades
with another on legislation before that
body he is guilty Of high misdemeanor,
and If the governor shall attempt in
that benighted land to influence legis-
lation by promises of veto or the with

HovAL's "FIGGERING"

There Is nothing in the line Of math-
ematical calculations SO easy as TO show
by actual figuring, the certainty of a
handsome majority for favorite candi-
date in hotly contested election. Ho-
val A. Smith of Cochise county, whose
lingering" We noticed yesterday,
claims the congressional race for Gamer
ON. This very best he can do is to make
1t appear that Cameron's majority will
be 455. To get this result he puts ella
county down as standoff; Graham for
Smith by 1875; Cochise $50 for Smith,
and then by giving Cameron major
tiles In other counties greater than any
republican or democrat has ever re-
ceived In them at any time since the or
ganization Of the territory, reaches his
conclusions. As this Mr.. Smith has fig
ured out the defeat of Mark Smith and
the election of Cameron, we beg to sub
init for his consideration and for that
Of others, a table Of estimates of the
probable result between Smith and Cam
eron, which is based largely on the
history Of past political events In this
territory when Mark Smith was run
ming against republicans of much more
ability and popularity than his present
opponent:
Apache county, 100 for Cameron.
Navajo county, rs for Smith.
Cocouino county, 125 for Cameron.
Mohave county, $50 for Smith.
Yavapai county, 100 for Cameron.
Maricopa county, 100 for Smith
Yuma county, 1876 for Cameron.
Pinal county, rs for Smith.
Pima county. $50 for Cameron.
Santa Cruz county, $50 for Smith.
cochise county, 300 for Smith.
Graham county, $50 for Smith.

FARMERS INSTITUTES
To Be HELD IN COUNTY
Meetings To Be Conducted In Oakland
and Accident.
To the Editor of The Republican:

To the Editor of The Republican,:
The Farmers Institute Department
of the Maryland Agricultural College
will begin its season s work at Cumber-
land on December 28th.
The purpose of these institutes is to
bring before the farmers of the State
information which will correct many of
the existing evils in the production of
crops-feeding and marketing them.
The popular Institutes are conducted
I by men and women chosen by the Di-
rector of the Department, William A.
Amos, and are selected from expert
enced and successful farmers, assisted
by specialists from the Agricultural
I College and Experiment Station depart
ments, who, through addresses, aided
by illustrations, lay before the farmers
the important methods they have
adopted in their own practice; or in
the case of the specialists, TIE results
obtained through experiments in the
laboratory or in field plots, which is
supported by the experience of the local
men through questions and discussions
which add interest and life to the
meetings.
/ The usual practice in conducting
farmers Institutes is to send two men
from a corps of workers selected for
the seasons work. Those who will
visi Allegany and Garrett counties will
be Mr.. Joseph Wing, who made a tour
of the State in l900-l90l, and told how
he made Woodland Farm, his family
inheritance, one of the most prosperous
in Ohio, through the intr 1duction of
alfalfa and the industry of fattening
lambs, in which industry he continues
with much greater success than when
on his first visit here.
Since Mr. Wings visit to MARYLAND.
alfalfa has been grown successfully in
all the counties of the State and bids
fair to be one of the most profitable
crops that the farmers can grow; it
being the plant that enables the farm
ers to grow the expensive elements he
has been purchasing in wheat iran,
cotton-seed meal and linseed meal, and,
at the same time draw from the air the
nitrogen which he has been buying from
the fertilizer dealers as Is cents pound.
Mr.. Wing has often been invited by,
and at the present time has an anUaUa
ment with, the University of Ohio to
present the charms of farm life to the
student body. He is an easy speaker
and has wonderful power over his
audience. He will be aided by DR..
Augustus Stabler, practicing physl-
clan and dairy farmer of Montgomery

department for two years, in other
parts OF the STATE, has been to call at
tention of the residents of rural dis
tricts to Importance of care in handling
milk, Of light and ventilation, a study
OF bacteria and their influence on the
health of men and animals.
This line of work is new for the De-
partment, as it has been difficult to OBJ
IAN one so competent to enlighten the
patrons of the institute on this import
ant subject. He was a member of the
corps OF lecturers that travelled through
the GARY section of the State in the
interests of dairymen and health boards
for milk production. His subjects will
be Cause and Prevention of Disease
Typhoid Fever and its Cause and Pre-
venJion -
In connection with his dairy in Mont
gomery county, he will present his sys-
TEN of improving a WORKOUT farm
through growing the leguminous crops,
also Ihelr value IN the dairy.
DR.. Stabler was a student of the
Johns Hopkins University when it was
first organized in 1876.
The work of these men alone will
Justify the farmers and others in at
tending the Institutes. As their sub
Jects indicate, they will make plain how
to maintain the health and increase the
fertility and productivity of the farms,
in which all are interested.
The morning session of the institute
in Oakland will open at 10 O'Clock,
Wednesday, December Both; the after
noon session at 100 At Accident the
first session will be at 2:3O p. M, on
Thursday, December 31st, followed by
morning and afternoon sessions on Fri
day, January LIST.
The institute is free to all, and it is
hoped that farmers will attend with
their families.
