GOOD RULE.
WILL WORK
both WAYS
Republican Platform go Said
Democrats Responsible For
Panic-HoW About the One
of 1907-8?
CFrom San Francisco star.)

It was In 1896 that the Republican
party adopted the standard by which
it must now be judged. In their ma
tional platform that year they loaded
the Harrison panic, which began in
1892, on the shoulders OF the Demo
cratic party. They asserted that the
party in power must be held respon-
sible for the panic. According TO their
platform, the party in power had
.'precipitated panic and matted enter
prise" And therefore, what? This,
according to the Republican platform
of 1896:
Every consideration of public safe
ty and individual interest demands
that the government be rescued from
the hands of those who have SHOWN
themselves incapable OF conducting
it,"
According to good Republican doc
trine ia 1896, il is an unpardonable
sin for a political party to have a
panic while it is in power, and II is
not a valid excuse that crops fail or
that the aand of the Lord is laid upon
the land That was Republican doc
trine in 1896, and it is still an article
in Republican party faith that the
Democratic party was responsible for
the panic of 1892 and therefore de-
served defeat in 1895.
So the question arises. What an
swer can the Republican party make
when it is charged with responsibility
for the present panic? What excuse
have they for the occurrence of q pan
ic during a Republican administration
and under the highest aud most pro
tective" tariff t1is country has ever
had? Can they persuade the people
that a high tariff is a magical, an in
fallibIe creator of wealth, happiness
full employment and prosperity?
The emergency arose, the pani'
came: and of what avail was tat
Dingley law? Did it keep in employ
ment at high wages ali who were viii
ing 10 work? And when the panic
came what man in all the countr.
looked TO the tariff for relief? VIVA
man was silly enough to suggest taa
the Dingiey law would in few
months reopen the mills and facto
ries? Yet why not2
When businss began to inlproy'
some nine years ago, the Repubiicai
leaders and organs pointed with pr1d
TO the Dingley law as the giyer o
renewed prosperity" How is it tha
tae protection law that brought pros
perity back to the country could nc
prevent prosperity from leaving U
Iast year? Therefore, why was ]
that no one thought last fall Of lool
ing to the Dingley law to abolish Tn
panic and to bring back prosperity.

DRUNKEN NEGRO
ATTEMPTS MURDER
Witnesses Discredit His Story
of Accidental Discharge
of Revolver.

PHOENIX, Sept. THE wife of
N. J. Woods, an industrious negro
employed at the roundhouse of the
Gila Valley railroad, was shot through
the thigh yesterday at 1890 O'Clock
by Thomas Harris. negro who had
been boarding with the Woods for
about five years. Harris claims the
shooting TO have been accidental, but
the statements of witnesses to the
shooting indicate that the man was
drunk and made a deliberate attempt
al murder.
Woods was seen in his cell at the
county Jail, about two hours after the
shooting. He was sleeping so souldly
that it took couple of the other pris-
oners some time 10 rouse him He
/ was not at all clear in his statement
until told that his visitor was a news
paper man and desired an explana-
ton, when he seemed to pull himself
together with an effort.
Il was sitting down talking to her
and the gun was lying on a box be-
tween my knees" he said. Then she
got sassy and made a grab for the
gun and / grabbed for it at the same
time, and 1t went of" was all that he
could say, apparently not in the least
realizing the position in which he had
placed himself.
But the accounts of. the shooting OBJ
tained in the neighborhood of the
Woods residence, on the railroad
. track, near Bone street, were alto
gether different
It was asserted by a woman who
lives next to the room occupied by tbs
Woods family. that Harris came there
!, apparently sober, and called the wo
! man out. As soon as she left hel
} doorsteps and approached to within
a few feet of him, he cried:

Climate.-If long staple CT Egyp-
tian cotton grows anywhere in the
United States it should grow well in
Salt River and GiIa valleys, as the
climate is nearly the same as the cot
ton belt climate in Egypt, which is
above Cairo. (No cotton is planted be
tween Alexandrit and Cairo) The
climate here is so dry it will have no
backsets by rain, and by proper irri-
cation it should commence to open in
August or after the rainy season, and
keep on growing, ripening and open
| ing until New Year, as frost win not
kill 1t here. as it does in the south
when frost falls. BY keeping it moist
| | think it would only have to be re-
| planted every two or three years. as
u have seen some few stalks at Coop
er's ranch, north Of Tempe, which
produced more bolls the second year
THAN they did the first, and perhaps
lasted one or two years more. They
may even live as long as caster beans
in this valley, but this can only be
demonstrated by actual experience
But that cotton grows well in the
valley is beyond dispute. In 1891, a
lrancher had a bale of 290 pounds al
tae fair at the race track on Centel
treet. and he tcld me he raised il
lon about a half acre of ground.

PLANS now READY
CONTRACTS SOON TO BE LET FOR
CONSTRUCTION OF FIRST
SEVEN BUILDINGS.

Denver.-The George w. Clayton
college for boys will soon be reality.
Biscoe & Hewitt have completed
plans for the eighteen buildings COM
prised in the college group and con-
tracts will be let Immediately for the
erection of seven Of the structures
needed at this time.
The college will be located on Nc
Kinley boulevard one.auarter mile
north OF City Park. and when COM
pleted 1t will be one OF the finest
groups OF educational buildings In the
country. George w. Clayton. Colorado
pioneer and millionaire. who died in
1899, bequeathed to the poor boys OF
this county and OF all Colorado his en-
tire fortune with the exception OF
few small requests to relatives. His
will provided that any male white
child between the ages OF six and ten
years. born OF respectable parents.
and whose father is dead. may apply
to the institution and receive q COM
mon school education and learn n use
full trade free OF cost. The expenses
OF his board, lodging and clothing will
be borne by the college. The institu-
ton Is not reformatory. but home
for boys OF good character. who must
lead exemplary lives during their resi-.
dence at the college.
Clayton was one Of the richest men
In the state. but the panic OF 1893 de-
pleted his large fortune. making 1t
necessary TO curtail the grand scheme
he had contemplated. There was left.
however. sum OF nearly 100000
for the college. and all OF this Is to be
used. The buildings will occupy a
tract OF $50 acres and they will be
arranged In the form OF hollow quad
rangle with spacious parking around
and among them.
All the buildings. with the excep-
ton OF the power house. will b two
stories high and of uniform architec-
ture. They will be built OF Colorado
stone and finished In hardwood.
The administration building. which
Is the largest In the group. will be oc-
cupied on the first floor by the officers
Of the institution. while the second
floor. will be devoted to an assembly
room which will accommodate 400 stu.
dents. As In all the other buildings.
Boulder sandstone with Fort Collins
stone trimmings will be used In the
construction. the dining hall adjoins
the administration building and will
be connected with II. This building
will seat 400 boys at table. The kitch.
en- and servants quarters viii. be n.
ranged around the dining hall.
The schoolhousc will contain four
rooms and will cover an area Of
SOx27 feet. Other school buildings arc
to be erected ~ soon as the number
OF students make this necessary.
-Four dormitories will be erected i'm.
mediately. Two Of these will he for
the smaller students and two for the
older boys. In the dormitorics OF the
small boys. partitions will extend. BY
this arrangement II will be easy for
attendants to keep watch over the
boys at night.
