FIND BODY OF MAN |
DEAD OVER A YEAR

NOGALES, Ariz., Oct. ga mystery
has been unearthed near the ancient
pueblo Of Tubac in this county, which
has created no little excitement. The
body OF a man was discovered last
Friday in a lonely canyon about two
miles northeast of the town. The body
evidently is that of an American,
about 80 years old, but the condition
of the remains indicate that nearly a
year has passed since the mans death.
The corpse had been neatly dressed.
and no papers could be found to re-
veal his identity. AS nothing what
eyer--not even the smallest trinket-
could be found in the pockets or near
the body, the suspicion is Justified
that he may have been the victim OF
foul play.
AS no one has been reported MISS
ing from Tubac or vicinity, the Victim
Is supposed to have come from some
other place. A jury was impaneled by
Coroner j.. #. Black to lIvestigate tho
case. and a verdict in accordance with
the above theory was rendered.

The Nodesty of HaYbie.

Our beautiful fellow-creature, Harvie
Jordan, is out in an editorial which
pretty nearly lifts the linen off the
clothes line He calls it "The Cotton
Journals Day Of Triumph"
The Cotton Journal is the name of Har-
vie's paper.
In this editorial we are told in the
most thrilling style, of Harvie's great bat
tie with the New York Cotton Exchange,
and of his glorious victory over that hy-
dra-headed monster.
We learn from the editorial that when
Harvie first opened fire upon Wall Street
his entrenched foes were inclined to con-
slider him poor joke This could hardly
apply to a Wall Streeter named Joseph
Hoadley, for we have been given to I'M
derstand that if Joseph regarded Harvie
as a joke at all, he classes him as good
one.
Be that as it may, Harvie says that
when he planted his '1ittle battery" less
than two years ago, and "opened fire
upon the apparently impregnable ram
parts of the New York Exchange the
odds were fearfully against him.
AS, indeed, they were. To prove how
long has been the cannOnade which Har-
vies little battery has directed against
those impregnable ramparts, he offers in
dubitable evidence.
Says Harvie, Read the old files of the
Cotton Journal!
Oh, the dickens and Tom Walker!
Rather than do that, Harvie, We'll con-
slider the case made out, and go right on.
Says Harvie,
"Note the trumpet blasts of 1906"
Now, Harvie, how are we to note trum-
pet blasts of two years ago? Don't be
unreasonable.
Says Harvie,
''Note the tactics of the enemy"
What for,-when the enemy has been
routed, secuted, crushed, annihilated?

York Cotton Exchange, Harvie modcstly

THE JEFFERSONIAN.

These laws were voted by both the two
old parties The National record of the
Democratic Party is as deeply, darkly,
dannably marked with the guilt and the
crime as that of the Republican Party.
The record so proves.
Bryan and Fusion and the Spanish War
were the successful enemies of the great
reform movement which, in 1896, had
1900 newspapers and nearly two million
voters.
So completely did Bryan and Fusion
and the Spanish War PROSTATE the revolt
of the people against the foul domination
of both the old parties that we had to
accept the situation and retire from the
contest
We had to allow the great Mr.. Bryan
to have everything his own way,-and a
nice mess, indeed, the great Mr.. Bryan
has made of it.
He has feathered his own nest, it is
true, but he put back the cause of re-
form almost generation.
Now that the blindest worshippers of
Bryan are beginning to doubt his wis
dom; now that those who are not his par
tisans recognize his failure as leader,
and see that the whole country is growing
tired Of this everlasting flood of Bryan
talk and Bryan stage-play and Bryan am
bition and Bryan selfshness and Bryan
wireworking, it behooves the leaders of
the movement for genuine reform to come
forward once more and rally the clans.
Who can place any confidence in Bryan
when we see him dickering with politi-
cal criminals like Charles Murphy and
F1ngy Corners? What are we to think
of Mr.. Bryan when he denounces Roger
Sullivan as a robber and then makes a
deal with the robber?
How much longer are we to follow
man who seems willing to sacrifice every
thing and everybody to his personal am
bition?
We call upon those who place princi-
pie above party and who believe in the
democracy of Jefferson and Jackson to
rouse themselves to the extreme neces-
sitv Of making a supreme effort to throw
off the yoke of intolerable class-legisla-
ton.
Let us have a grand rally in Atlanta
on the 9th of July. From Georgia let the
movement spread into every other state
Let us show some of the spirit of our
forefathers. The heroes of I776 fought
eight years against tyranny which, COM
pared to that of our Trusts, was a mere
trivialitv.

vealed such bondage as that in which

SOnian Principles.

K i
s0nian Principles.
The time has come to organize for &C
ton
The benefciaries of our monstrous
class-legislation have used both the old
parties so long and so corruptly that
the unprivileged masses Of the people
are in revolt everywhere.
In both the old parties we see the
same Wall Street rascals holding the
reins of power. E. H. Hartman, the
robber, is a Republican, but Thomas F.
Ryan, the robber, is a Democrat, and
these two millionaire thieves are master
full spirits in the Councils of their respec-
tive parties.
J. P. Morgan, the robber, is a Republi-
can, but August Belmont, the robber, is
a Democrat, and these two millionaire
thieves are nasterful spirits in the Coun-
ellis of their respective parties.
So it is, all along the line The pluto
cratic few who rob the producers of this
country are about evenly divided between
the Democratic and the Republican par
ties
Among the National bankers, the Trust
magnates the Railroad Kings, the preda-
tory corporations generally, you will
find that about half are Democrats and
half are Republicans.
What does that mean? That the same
men control both the old parties.
This they have been doing ever since
the Civil War, and that explains why the
specially privileged hold so much more of
the wealth of the country than the mil
lions of toilers who produced it.
The laws have been so framed, by both
the old parties, that the non-producers of
wealth in this country constitute Our
money-bag aristocracy, while the produc-
ers of the wealth are the Have-nots.
AS a class, Our millionaires are those
who have, under forms of law, taken
away from the workers of the land the
products of their toll.
Literally, Our millionaire class is the
robber band which has Systematically de-
spoiled the workman of the fruits of his
labor.
This has been done, ever since the
Civil War, by laws which had no other
