LEADERS ARE
SURPRISED At
MINER STORY
Democrats Never Dreamed OF
Such a Thing As Throwing
Out Vote of First Ward, Or
Anything of Sort.

In lead story under the caption Va
"Cochise County Democrats Would
Win By Trick" the Miner last even
ing made some sweeping statements
which are not founded on facts ana
are misleading.
There has been several statements
made Of late regarding the conduct Of
the Democratic party in Cochise coun-
ty which have worked great injus-
tice.
One of the most fragrant assertions
is that the Democrats seek to have
the first ward in Bisbee thrown out
in order to elect Nein Bailey. and
John Rock. Nothing could be farther
from the truth as can be found ny
every voter in this city and Cochise
county by taking the trouble of looK-
ing INTO the matter for himself
Upon reading this attack upon the
leading Democrats of this county anu
city the Review at once became busy
and called ]. ]. Bowen, one of TIE
members of the board of supervisors
and one of the wheel horses of the
democracy IN Cochise. Mr.. Bowen
was in Tombstone and discussed TIE
matter over the phone He expressed
great surprise at the statement in
the Miner and said tnat 1t was ali
new to him.

of this and 1t comes to me as a sort
Of a revelation. If thee had been

LADY MhCCAREES
ENTERTA|V KNIGHTS
One of the Most Enjoyable
Social Events of Season
Last Night.

One of the most enjoyable times
which the fraternal circles have had
in Bisbee this season was that of
last night, when the ladies' of the
Maccabees rendered a delightful re
ception to the Knights of the Macca,
bees. This organization is well known
for its ability in entertaining. but last
night they quite outdid themselves.
Among other things, there was a
short but very interesting program
provided for the occasion and many
pretty numbers were rendered.
The ladies had also provided one
of the best Iuncheons possible and
everyone enjoyed that portion In all
its fullness. Dancing was enjoyed

cries in the brain of many a pioneer
of the present metropolis of Arizona,
From Sylvanite one can see the
peaks of the range above Canyo~
Bonita, where Jake Bowman of Bisbee
was killed by Apache Kid. In tina.
neighborhood several years ago a
gang of rustlers attacked a party of
Mexican smugglers and killed six N
seven people and about thirty mules.
Johnny Ringo, well known in those
days in Tombstone and Bisbee, VITA
his usual recklessnes, was the only
man who fought standing. The loop
was shot from his cartridge belt.
Birchfieid years afterward found the
relics of the bloody encounter. He
cut open an empty cayax, but it con-
tanned none of the silver for which
the snuggiers had been waylaid.
In another of his trips in quest oil
the lodges that are no wthe back
bone of Sylvanite he discovered at the
lead of Also Creek, where Victoria
and Apachetajo had inflicted terri
bic vengeance upon a detachment on
Mexican soldiers. The Notifications
that had been occupied by about-three
hundred Indians were in a well pre-
served condition. The fight occurred
about thirty-flve years ago. Birch"
and his companion, Harry Reynolds,
decided that the Mexican troops had
followed iVctorio into the canyon to
take his horses. How fngloriously
they failed is attested by the skeletons
OF about one hundred and seventy-fve
Mexicans. The number of Indians
killed did not exceed thirty. There
were also killed three or four horses,
bits of leather and metal being all that
remained of their saddles. Apachetaio
will be more readily recalled by pio-
neers by his nickname OF Hoo" ID

name.
Almost every southwestern reader
OF this will recall the oft circulated
report that In the Guadalupe noun

testimony in support of his belief,
shared by all the cowmen of this
country, that the range still shelters
a remnant of the once oznniprescent
redskin. At the Long ranch, at the

STATES INDUSTRIES
WILL BE MERGED
Committee on Tariff Revision
viii Present Argument Be-
fore Congressional Body

California's foremost industries
those in which this state leads all
others-will probably be specially rep
resented when the state tariff revision
committee takes up its work with the
ways and means committee Of congress.
In the other industries, such as the
lumber, fruit and mining industries,
California will cooperate with other
states in presenting to the congress
sional committee arguments for tariff
revision. Such interests as the lumber
industry will combine with the COM
mittees from other states when the
subject of lumber tariffs is brought
before the committee.
The state committee on tariff re
vision held a meeting yesterday in the
ferry building. Letters from Con-
gresham Needham of the ways and
means committee, Governor J. n. Gillett
and others We're read. Needham sug-
gested that the interests of this state
would be best served if they merged
interests with other states. AS to the
special industries, such as the wine
trade. nut trade and orange and lemon
trade. Needham suggested that Cali
fornia take the lead in presenting
argument for tariff revision.
Several additional members were
added yesterday to the subcommittee
The new committees are as follows:
Wine making and WlneS-P. Z. ROSSl
San Francisco; William Peltier, Sacra-
mento; F. A. West, Stockton, and J. J.
Jacoby, San Francisco. Deciduous

Congressman Needham will be re-
quested TO attend and advise the COM
mittee on the proper method to be pur-
sued in presenting argument before the
congressional committee. When a
course of action has been decided upon
each industry represented on the com
mittee will be assessed $50 to meet the
expenses.

EAST NOW SEEKS
CALIFORNIA APPLES
Crop of State Increases 100 Per
Cent and Is in Great
Demand

California this year has added a few
more leaves to its laurel crown
For years the east looked upon Call
fornia as a semitropical state, whose
chief horticultural product was the
orange and lemon At one time IL
was said, California could not compete
with Florida This state not only out
stripped Florida, but has practically
put it out of competitive business
The east, 1t was said, would have to
rely upon the eastern grower for ap-
pies. This fruit. it was also stated,
never could be grown successfully in
this land OF perpetual sunshine. 1t was
a cold weather fruit and therefore out
of the California competitive zone.
Now what has happened? II the
easterner does not want to pay an ex-
orbitant price for apples he will have
to eat those grown in this state, for the
eastern crop practically is a failure.
The apple crop is the crop in certain
sections Of the United States, and the
Boston chamber OF commerce has made
a careful estimate Of the yields OF or
chards in this country. in Europe, Eng
land and Canada, with the pleasing re-
suit that in California the crop is 100
per cent larger than last year and OF
excellent quality.
The report of the Boston chamber
of commerce is as follows>
New England-In the aggregate 25 per cent
less than last year. Maine. separately, so per
cent less.
New York state, Hudson river district-40 per
cent less.
Canada-Fan varieties in excess OF last year.
Nova Scotia-Crop viii be 80 per cent less
Mfchigan-75 per cent less
Arkansas-FroIn 10 TO 20 per cent less.
Virginia and West Yirginia-60 per. cent less
California-1oo per cent more than last year;
quality excellent
0regon-FuIly 100 per cent more than last
year: quality excellent
Ohio. Indiana and Ilinois-Somewhat more
than last year.
Idaho-About so per cent more than last year
Missouri and Kansas-f0 per cent more than
last year.
Colorado-25 per cent more than last year
Great Britain-Heavier than last year with
the exception OF Scotland
Continent Of Europe-In excess OF last year.
