Miss Brady Injured By an Auto

The many friends of Miss Josephine
n. Brady will regret to learn that
Miss Brady was quite seriously hurt
in Atlanta Friday night by being run
down by an automobile while cross
ing Peachtree street, and dragged
several yards before the machine was
brought to a stop.
The following account of the acct
dent was taken from the Atlanta
Journal of Saturday:
Miss Josephine n. Brady, of Tt
tuSville, Fla, was knocked down by
an automobile last night and scream
ing from fright and pain, was drag
ged by her hair nearly the entire
width of the Gambler building, on
Peachtree street. She miraculouSly
escaped with a slight scalp wound
and a twisted ankle.
wv. H. Howell, contractor, with
offices i'm the Temple Court. was driv-
ing the machine. He stopped it as
quickly as he could and helped bear
Miss Brady into Dahl's, the florist, in
the Gambler building, where medical
aid was given her. She was then
driven in Mr.. Howell's automobile to
the Coolidge House, at 81 Houston
street, where she and relatives are
boarding.
AN examination made there after
the accident showed that Miss Brady
had suffered no fracture of the skull
as had been feared. Her ankle, how
ever, was badly sprained and it will
be a week yet before she will be able
to walk.
Miss Brady is in i'll health and
with her uncle by marriage Judge
A. d. Penney. of Fort Pierce, Fla,
Mrs. Penney and their young daugh-
ter, Laura, came to Atlanta a short
time ago for a change Of climate"

HIS SUDDEN FATE.

The experience of Jesse R. Pearos has in it a lesson for all men, young and old. His case, though an un- usual one, is by no means isolaeed Though convicted of a crime and doomed to term of Imprisonment which will carry him far into middle life, he is not criminal in the sense that he. is a hardened or vicious of fender like tens of thousands of men at large. There was in his case no easy descent to Avernus, but a sud den fall over the edge of the cliff of highest responsibility.
 He was poisoned by no systematic evil associations and his morals were weakened by no vicious habits. He lapsed for an instant as thousands had done before him, without evil result He had put himself into a position where he might break the law He walked too near the edge of the cliff.
 This is done by ordinarily law abiding citizens every day but it is never safe.

 One might suspect that the Star would rather like to see congress turn down our application for statehood on the ground of our apparent pont- ical complexion. That is not the proper spirit.
 But if it becomes necessary Gov ernor Kibbey, backed by the 700 ma jority for Ralph Cameron, might very easily convince congress that the dem ocratic preponderance in the legis- lature is less significant of the pre- ponderance of democracy in Arizona than appears at first blush

THE WOOL AND THE TARIFF.

I
 A large number of Arizonians can enter into the spirit of the Ohioans who are protesting against a reduc- tion of the tariff on wool The ter ritory felt the effect of the Wilson bill in 1893, resulting in an abso- lute paralysis of the wool industry, from which there was no recovery until after the election of McKin- ley. Sheep had almost ceased to be regarded as property. There was no section of the country where the blow fell with more disastrous effect But if the sheep industry was destroyed, the Wilson bill had the effect of making enthusiastic republicans out of the flock masters and they have been republicans ever since.
 In point of years, wool growing in the United States can not be described as an infant industry but it is an industry which will always be helpless against outside competi- ton and in the nature of things it will become more helpless as the ranges are curtailed and the value of land increases.
 In the course of the hearing before the ways and means committee on Wednesday, Representative Champ C,1z.1- , ,,~1,,,, ,,,.- ,,,;,;,,cr f,oo tradar drew an admission from General Grosvenor, who appeared for the Ohio growers, that there had been an appreciation of the value of land during the four year period in which the wool business languished, the pur- pose being to show that that fact rather than the Wilson tariff was responsible for the decrease in the number of sheep in Ohio.
 Though there was in Ohio as every where else a steady climbing Of the price of land, the Increase could not have been so great in that period as to reduce the. number of sheep in Ohio from 152. .000 to 43,000. Be side Ohio land values kept on climb ing but under the genial influence of the Dingley tariff there was an upturn in the sheep business.
 MT. Clark's question, however, suggests a thing which will come to pass some time-land of so high a value that the sheep industry will become restricted if not impossible As the price of land advances so does of course the cost of wool production without which the experience of 1S93-7 demonstrated that it cannot live The question now is, Has the sme come to abandon this industry to certainly destructive competition?

with him the election returns from all the counties, he can show con gressmen that the actual demo- cratic majority for members of the legislature is a little less than 150 That is, if the republicans had rightly placed 150 more votes for legislators the legislature would have been sol idly republican in both branches.
 Generally throughout the territory the republican legislative tickets were neglected. The strength of the party was centered upon the candidate for delegate to congress and the candi- dates for the county offices.
