TO OPPOSE MR.. FINLEY.

The Galfney correspondent of
the News and Courier states that
Mr.. II. b. Butler, a well-known
lawyer cf that city, has definite
ly decided to enter the race for
Congress from this distrinct in
the approaching campaign. In
making the announcement The
correspondent says:
Mr.. Butler ha, Leen urged to
take this step, Ia thus opposing
Mr.. Finley, by his many admir-
ers, not only in his home county,
but in all the counties OF the 5th
district. He realizes the popu.
larity and strength of his oppo-
nent, the present Representative,
but through assurance from
many sources he has been made
sanguine OF success. His friends
in Cherokee county assure him
that out of the 1900 votes in
Cherokee he will easily get over
$500, this by no means being a
mean send off. OF course he ex.
poets York to support Mr.. Fin
ley, but he also expects a lively
contest in the remaining coun.
ties. Mr.. Buffers friends are
elated over the fact that he Will
make the race; they say that he
is a catchy fellow" on the
stump and a strong speaker WI h
firm grip on The people. These
facts in addition to his native
ability and his acquired qualifica-
items, they believe and hope will
secure his election as Represen-
tative Of The 9th district.
If Mr.. Butler is all that the
writer says he is, the people will
hear some lively stump speeches
next summer, if ME Finley stands
for reelection, as he most likely
will.

May Look for BountifuI
Crops in 300

The mild, beautiful weather of the
present winter severely taxes the Oldest
inhabitant to find in the past a record to
match it, and all are forced to admit that
for mild, even temperature and sunshine
the winter of 19o7-8, if equalled, has
never been surpassed.
The winter of 81 and 81 was similar to
this with no real winter weather until
March. From March 9Th to the middle
of April stiff winter weather prevailed
and plenty of SNOW fell, blocking the
railroad.
1t was still milder throughout the entire
northwest during the winter of II and
'78, the weather being rainy and foggy
like coast weather and grass was green
nearly all winter. Meat could not be
kept and the best poultry and meat sold
at ~ and 2 cents per pound. The Mis-
souri, river was open all winter, where the
current was swift, and the Mississippi
was open until March. Excursions were
run on the Mississippi Christmas day-as
was the case this year-and E. F. Mes
sersmith of this city purchased a ticket in
St. Paul. For some reason he did not
use the ticket and still has it in his pos
session as a treasured souvenir.
In March of that year also winter came
in earnest, with plenty of snow, and it
was then that the ice crop was secured,
firms from St. Louis and Chicago getting
their supply from White Bear Lake,
Minnesota.
Asked about the summers following
these mild winters, our informant said
they were fine crop years. The ground
was worked early and much of it seeded.
Then came plenty of. moisture and an
early and abundant crop.
From this data, it would seem that the
North Dakota farmer may look for a fine
farming season in 1903, following the
third wonderfully mild winter.

Early in the year, when local poll. tics were just budding into flower there was much war, and rumors of war in the republican camp. There were valiant forces in the field. These were arrsyed against each other, and under the abls leadership of George and George IT. threatened to disrupt the republican par. ty, not only of Gila county, but of tha territory. There was all the "pomp and circumstance of glorious war" dis played, and fierce and furious grew the prospects of combat. But, when the campaign grew upon the party, these contending leaders and their forces were "squelched, so to speak; "grim- visaged war" was made to have it's wrinklsd front laundried. and from tha. time on all, in their camp, has gone merry as a marriage bell"

A BRILLIANT SPEECH

Hon Henry Ashurst, Friday night, in one of the ablest political speeches ever delivered in Globe, presented the claims of Mark Smith in a most forcible man. ner. He presented Mir. Smiths entire political record from the time he enter. ed the political record until the present time, and fully answered the questions republican orators are so fond of ask. ing: What has Mark Smith done?'' He presented an array of facts from Mir. Smiths record in congress, that was highly gratifying to the people who have stood by him through ths years he has been their representative in con- gross He showed that through the f. delity of Mark Smith to the people of Arizona, ono of the most corrupt schemes ever matched in any looter s brain was frustrated. The scheme was to get an act through congress allowing persons to lease the university lands of tha territory to settlers; and these lands being heavily timbered, the settler would be able to dispose of tho timber to a syndicate standing ready to pur. chase 1t, and remove 1t from ths land, thus leaving nothing but the barren and worthless hills. The timber the iooters were after was worth, and 1t is today worth, many millions of dollars. Mir. Smith was not in congress at the time, but being appealed to by the people In the northern counties where the timber was located, and seeing the enormity of the scheme to rob the people of the rich endowment given to their university, he sent a lenghty telegram to President Cleveland showing the attempt that was being made to rob the people and ap- peaiing to him to prevent It. The bill had passed both houses of congress and was in the hands of the president, but upon receipt of MT. Smiths telegram. 1t was vetoed, and this vast wealth saved to the territory. He mentioned many other things Mark Smith had done for the territory, enough to make any person of ssnse and decency feel ashamed to ask such question.

The advice the republicans gave their partisans early in the spring to vote the straight republican ticket is not hoard now. The democrats think, If ii is good for them to vote their party ticket unscratched, 1t will be equally good for democrats to vote the same way. If democrats do act upon ths suggestion of tho republicans, and vote their party ticket straight, the republicans would stand about as much chance of carrying the county as an ici- cls in Hades would of becoming tsle- graph pole.

The republicans of Gila county arc overlooking a very important matter They have been claiming that the race between Mark Smith and Ralph Gamer. on will be about even, thus overcoming the big majority the county gave Mark simth two years ago. They have boon challenged upon the rostrum by demo cratic speakers, and in these columns, to produce the mama of twenty actual, bona ade democrats who supported Mark Smith two years ago, who will support Cameron in the present race. They have not done 1t. We challenge them again Let them produce the names os shut up.
