MIR. DAVIES MoVEMENTs-R. P

Davie. manager of the Southwestern Sugar & Land company, has had what he called rather busy time since leaving here two weeks ago. He went from here to California. then to Salt Lake City. where he had some business engagements. then to his main office in Grand Junction, then to Colorado Springs, from there to Chicago, Detroit and New York. To- day he leaves the metropolis for Miami, Florida and from there he is expected to return to Phoenix. either direct or some other way. His 1tin- erary seems to include wherever the train goes, for he has business almost everywhere Incidentally no time is being lost here during his absence. The west well at the sugar factory has been tested and has a regular flow of 400 gallons per minute. The new drilling rig was put into com mission on Saturday and will be kept busy until the company has all the wells it can imagine it will ever have any use for.

Educational Ballot at the Polls

Educational Ballot at the Polls
The question has arisen whether a
voter can make use of a sample or
educational ballot, or can take print
ed lists Of candidates, into the cleo
ton booth at the coming election to
facilitate his marking his ballot cor
rectly.
Newspapers sometimes print a'list
Of candidates to be voted on at an
election with the names of certain
candidates thereon marked in a read
lily distinguishable manner, and vot-
,ers in many instances have carried
this list with them into the booth
when they prepare their ballot.
In one instance, however, in this
state, the inspectors recently pre-
vented a man from voting because
he had a newspaper containing such
a list in his possession.
The original election law, as passed
by the legislature of 1895, in section
55 of the election act, provided that
the use or furnishing of printed cop
les of ballots or of any mechanical
devices to aid the voter was an of
fense against the law and punishable
by fine of not exceeding $4,000,
but it appears that in the revision of
the statutes this clause was entirely
omitted.
One Of the leading attorneys of this
state, Geo. T. Morgan, Esq, of Pen
sacola. has given it as his opinion that
as the revised statutes are now the
law, there seems to be no penalty for
printing or furnishing a copy of the
ballots, or no prohibition preventing
the voter from carrying such printed
copy to the voting booth to aid him
in marking his ballot"
The section above referred to reads
as follows:
ANY elector who shall, except as
herein provided, allow his ballot to
be seen by any person, or who shall
take or remove, or attempt to take
or remove, any ballot from the poll
ing place before the close of the polls,
or place any mark upon his ballot by
which it may be identified, or take in
to the election booth any mechanical
device, ticket or memorandum
printed or written, other than the
official ballot or ticket to enable him
to mark said ballot or ticket, or any
person who shall interfere with any
elector when inside of the polling
place, or when marking his ballot, or
unduly influence, or attempt to un-
duly influence any elector in the
preparation of his ballot, or any cleo
tor who shall remain longer than the
specified time allowed by this act in
the booth or compartment, after be-
ing notified that his time has expired,
or who shall endeavor to induce any
elector to show how he marks, or has
marked, his ballot, or aids, or at,
tempts to aid, any elector by any
means of any mechanical device,
whatever, in marking his ballot, OF
shall print or procure to be printed,
or have in his possession any copy OF
any ballot prepared to be voted, shall
be guilty of misdemeanOr, and or
conviction shall be fined not less than
ten nor more than one hundred dol.
lars. or imprisoned not more thar
three months. and any ballot marked
by the electOr for identification shall
be rejected.

AS TO JAPANESE MOVEMENTS
AND JAPANESE ASSURANCES.

Editor John Temple Graves of the N.
American sounds note of warning from his plac
IN the watch tower of the nation.
"Aoki Hayashi and Okuma, diplomats,
soldiers and statesmen of Japan, continue to
lead chorus of we'll, timed and pacific assur-
ances of the good will of the mikado's people
toward the United States"
''The sound is pleasing to the ear, but to the
memory it begins to recall assurances almost
equally pacific and altogether as prolific ex'
tended to Russia in the winter of 1904. F."
''The olive branch in the hand of Japan is
not quite so convincing as it was prior to the
battles with the car"
"And indeed, there are sounds and move
ments behind these peaceful words which are
little difficult to understand in unison"
sPerhaps a brief recital may furnish food
for reflection and for intelligent action to
American citizens holding the ballot and the
right of memorial in their hands. The facts
taken from the current dispatches and from
official statements carry their own comment
and should inspire their own answer in the
advocacy of statesmen and the ballots of
citizens.

CALLED BY DYING WOMAN
Daughter Makes Flying Trip and
Saves Four Lives.

Hamilton, Ont, March 1.-THE fly
ing trip of young woman from To-
ronto to Hamilton saved the lives of
her mother, two sisters and cousin.
The young girl, who lives in To-
ronto with married sister, while the
remainder of the family live in Ham
ilton, was awakened in the morning
by telephone bell.
Hamilton wants you in hurry"
was the message from central and in
a moment she heard her mothers
voice, weak and almost inarticulate
ooh! Esther, come to us quickly.
We're all DYING" said the mother
annie is unconscious and both Bella
and Jeanne are too sick to call the
neighbors. Come as quick as you can.
I can't stand at the phone longer"
The girl dressed hurriedly and, with
her sisters help, harnessed a horse
and drove to the railroad station, ar
irving just in time to catch train
An hour and half from the time she
received the message she reached her
home in Hamilton and found the
whole family unconscious from coal
gas. She summoned physicians and
the four were revived. ~
The mother declares her whole ac-
ton was carried out as though she
was in a dream. She had no thought
of calling any person in Hamilton.

TRIAL OF PRIESTS SLAYER
Prosecution Begins the introduction
OF Evidence.


OF Evidence.
Denver, March 1.-THE prosecution
has begun the introduction of evil
dence in the case of Giuseppe Ala,
charged with the murder of Father
Leo Heinrichs. The jury is compos ed
of business men, all non-Catholic,
who have declared under examination
that they are not opposed to hanging
and would not be Influenced by the
fact that the murdered man was a
priest.
The first, witness was Dr. Hugh L.
Taylor who assisted in the autopsy
on the body of Father Leo He said
the cause of the priests death was
bullet wound in the heart.
DR.. Edward F. Dean, who per-
formed the autopsy, testified to the
same effect.
Coroner R. p. Rollins told of the
inquest and produced the bullet which
caused the death of Father Leo.
During the entire morning session
eight alienists watched ALA very
closely. ALA sat most of the day
with downcast eyes, but occasionally
he would look at the Jury or a wit
ness and with blinking eyes he would
seem to be trying to make out what
was going on.

DUTY TO HOME DEALER,

A Minneapolis paper, says The
Pipestone Star, tells that farmer
from this part of the state has made
an urgent complaint to Governor
Johnson about extortionate freight
charges for bringing to him a pair
of overshoes from a Chicago cata-
logue house.
In his letter the farmer tells the
governor that although the cost
of the overshoes was not over
eighty-five cents, the package was
billed as ten pounds of freight, and
he was charged eighty cents for it's
transportation.
Another complaint of similar char
acter has been received by the gov
ernor from a resident of another
section, who says he was obliged to
pay eighty-five cents charges on a
twenty-pound package from one of
the Chicago catalogue houses.
We are confident that Governor
Johnson,speaking as an editor, would
advise both OF these compliments to
patronize their home merchants in
the future and thus avoid this sort
of extortion.
But as governor, if there is any
law that will cover the matter, he
will doubtless have to punish the
offenders.
