CAMPAIGN ORATORY
Happiest Moment of His Life Would
 Come After Death.

1t happened at a school house in one of the outside precincts The speaker had discoursed quite eioquent.y con eerning local issues and had put forth more or less unanswersble arguments in favor of the defeat of his opponent, Finally he spoke briefly of himself and his higher aspirations. He craved neither wealth nor fame but hedesired to secure as an heritage to his chil- dren an uotsrnished name.
 Said he: Ladies an gentlemen, my highest ambition is to 60 hve that when am laid beneath the cold, cold ground, 1t may be very soon, my friends, without suhjec,ing themselves to charge of inconsistency may place above my head a modest tombstone on which there shall he engraved the inscription, "Here Lies An Honest Man" And when my scqusintances and even strangers pass my grave and their eyes are caught by that inscri p. tion, and they stand and peruse t that shall be the hsppiest m ment o my life"

A number oi requests for transfers from oHe voting precinct to another have been received by County Recor- der Mcdonald. from voters whc have left the precinct in which they were registered and are now living in oth. CTS. These requests were received after the copy for the register nad been placed in the hands of the printer for publication, 90 that it was impossible for the charge to be made on the register. However, 1t will not be necessary for them to go back to the precinct in which they were reg 'stered, unless they have not resided for thirty days in the precinct in which they now wish to vote.
 This question came up two years ago and Charles R Howe, whc was then clerk of the board of supervisors, wired to the attorney general of the territory for sn opinion in regard to the matter and in reply received the telegram:

SETTING THE MATTER
cochise Grand Jury Investigating li-
 belous Charges Made Against Ross

Frank Grove, who is in the employ
 of the Cochise Press, at Benson. was
 -ubpoened before the grand jury to- day with reference to the investiga- ton instituted in the charge made that Assistant District Attorney Rosa i sold ont the interests of his clients in the litigation among the stock holders of the Arizona Mining and Trading Co. of Douglas, as recently published in the Cochise County Press.
 Mir. Ross indignantly brands the statement as false and without any foundation whatever. The accusation is so f.grantly false that the stock. holders he represented are themselyes preparing statement to refute the charge and publicly exhonorate Mir. Ross.
 It now appears that the article was based upon q letter sent from Douglas to Editor White, in wh oh event the matter will be traced to it's source and the responsibility fixed where it be- longs.
 The circulation of slanderous state. ments for political effect is never sp- proved, and the public is quick to cen- sure such tactics. THE PRosPEcroR does not believe that the Cochise Press intentionally desired to malign the efficient assistant district attorney for the questionable political effect such B course might produce, and that due explanation will follow in it's columps.

Joe Stamield was a Tom bstone
 visitor today. He brings the news of a new gold excitement near Gleeson
 which has aroused much inte.es. and caused quite rush 10 the new fields. The new find is about four miles east of Gleeson near the vicinity of what i. known & Sugar-loaf Hill. Some rich samples of free gold were found, and further work has encouraged the be. lief that rich gold field has been found The country IS all located by the prospectors and miners who were attracted from the Gleeson, Leadville and Courtlsnd sertIon, and it is thought development will open up bonanza.
 A peculsrity of the section is the fact that ore similar Tn character to that found at sylvsnite-the new gold field in New Mexico--Is also | found here and is puzzler to many | of the miners.

AssembIyman '. E. Bailey's Position
 on the Eight-Hour Law

To the Editor of THE PRosPFcroR:
 I understand the Republican press is accusing me of opposing the 8 hour law. Iwant to brand that statement as an infamous lie. I was not a mem- Der of the legislature when this bill was before that body. I have not only never oppo-ed such a law, but am now and have always been in favor of such measure as now stands on the statute books of Arizona, much to the credit of the Democratic party of this territory.

TRUE PROTECTION

N UARANTEE of bank deposits,
tT which is part Of the Democratic
VI program, is one of the chief issues
of this campaign. In many parts OF
the United States local branches OF the
Republican party have favored it, ana
Judge Taft's attempt to discredit the
plan by calling it Socialistic has failed
The idea has gained such hold upon the
masses of the people that Republicans
have been forced to take 1t up, ana
many Republican candidates for con-
gress and for state Legislatures have
been asked to pledge themselves to this
Democratic principle.
In Oklahoma, whefe there is state
guarantee system, Attorney General
Bonaparte ruled that national banks
could not participate in the state guar
antee. This leaves the issue clearly
drawn. The Democratic party is in
favor of protection of the hard earned
money of the people. The Republican
party refuses to offend financial mag
mates by suggesting deposits are IN
need of protection.
Bank deposit guarantee or insurance
is one of those belated measures of re-
form which, when they are suggested,
make people wonder why they were
not adopted long ago. Since the Re-
publican state convention of Kansas
resolved to make bank guarantee one
of it's party principles, national Repub-
lican leaders have realized that with
this issue Mr.. Bryan will score heavily
against them They do not see what
can be done about it, and in view of
various Republican Endorsements of
the plan, and its acceptance by sections
OF the Republican party, Judge Taft's
attempt to dismiss bank deposit guar
antee as Socialistic measure is weak
er than anything he has said or done.

tional Institute OF Agriculture. To the
initiation of that work the United
States Is committed by It's Official adj
herence TO the plan. But our course
since that time has been distinctly dis
creditable. 1t has ceased to be a qllcs-
ton of backing ZIP Mr. Lubin. It has
become question of good faith toward
the king of Italy and tho other Rov-
ernments which have responded to his
invitation. We believe that no money
to speak Of, If any, was appropriated
for the purpose Mr.. Lubin asks
nothing for himself, but he does need
the services of statistical staff to do
our part of the work In ascertaining
what Is or is not possible, and what 1t
is or is not desirable, to attempt. And
while we are on the subject 1t may be
said that the United States govern
inent has always been slrnally derelict
In furnishing its own people with in
ormation--vitally necessary--as to con-
ditions in foreign countries. AS a result
of an effort originating in this state
the government was spurred into get
ting such reports from consuls as those
officials could prepare at their own ex-
pense, but 1t would never permit the
use OF the telegraph or cable to any
important extent and such Informal
ton as the consuls can collect at their
own cost usually reaches the general
public too late to have any but his
torical interest. There Is no systematic
effort for such service and no prospect
OF any. And now, when Mr.. Lubin asks
for the assistance which other govern
ments give to their delegates, he is
sent from one department to another
with no definite answer from anybody.
In connection with this systematic
encouragement of Mr.. Lubin, and vir-
tual opposition to the institute, the pub
lie does not fail to note that in no single
instance has the department of agri-
culture under the present administers
ton been known to favor anything
whatever which did not originate In
that department or for which the Until
alive could not be claimed or assumed.
And yet there are others.
