"ARROWS and SLINGS."

The tragic death of Judge Har-
gis-the vicious deed of an I'M
natural son-has touched off the
vituperative batteries of the Re-
publican press of Kentucky, and
cruel epithets and merciless accu-
sations are hurled into the
bloody grave Of a murdered man.
While living Judge Hargis may
have deserved censure; dead, his
body should be left to the eter-
nal repose of the grave-his name
should be untouched by the ar
rows and sings" of hate.
But, after all, it matters little
what Republican Editors say
about 'Bargis and assassina-'
ton" Their utterances serve
only to disrobe inconsistency and
to stand it before the public eye
in it's shameful nakedness. The
same pen that digs into the grave
of Hargis to deliver venom to the
bloody corpse, signs petition
asking for the pardon of Powers.
The same pen that condemns the
dead Judge of Breathitt, extolls
the living Taylor of Indiana.
Never was inconsistency so
mercilessly and o u ira giously
stung; never was inconsistency
so stark naked; it's cloak is
stolen, it's protecting brush is
hewn down, its fig leaves are
burned in the fires of malevo-
lence, and it stands as rude as
barren hills. Springfield Sun.

CALEB POWERS.

A letter from a friend in the
18th district conveys this intel
ligence says the Frankfort Jour-
nal: "T he information h a S
reached the chairman and secre-
tary Of every Republican COM
mittee in the 18th Congressional
district that Caleb Powers will
get out in time to make the race
for Congress this fall. d. c.
Edwards has been trying every
way in his power to get w. w.
Byerly, district chairman to call
"a primary Immediately. This
Byerly refuses to do. Byerly has
always opposed Edwards, and is
especially sore at Edwards now,
because Edwards secured Napier
Adams nominations for Clerk of
Court of Appeals. and by so
doing prevented Byerly's nomi-
nation for a State office. |
suppose you also know that
Byerly was a Hunter man and
has always been unfriendly to
Edwards.
In the late campaign Edwards
made a few speeches in the dis
trict for the State ticket and
these speeches are pronounced
to have been the worst ever,
doubtless because it was not a
very pleasant task to preach his
own funeral"

STICK TO THE FARM.

While it is true that a ma
jority of the successful business
and professional men of our cities
came from the farms, or were
more or less closely associated.
it is just as true that only very
small proportion of those who
have succeeded as we'll, or nearly
as'well as if they had stuck to
the pillow. But of those who fail
we hear but little, only of the
few who succeed. Only about
6 per cent of the 100 young men
who go up to the city attain
prominence and % per cent do
fairly well, and the other 70 per
cent pass through life occupying
greater or less mental positions,
many of whom are not treated
as we'll, or appreciated as much
by their associates and those
over them as were the slaves of
the South. None of the IS per
cent are likely to attain the
influence possessed by the aver
age Of the 100 who remain on
the farm.

The baseball fans of Tazewell were
very much disappointed again last week
when 1T became known that the Wise
team had cancelled the three games
scheduled for this place for Friday and
Saturday last. The calling off of these
games was necessitated by injuries sus-
tanned by some of the players from
Wise in game at Richards on Thurs
day, the day before the team was to
play here. We are informed that the
catcher and one of the pitchers were
injured so painfully as to eliminate
them from the game for several weeks.

but very effective. Services have been
held each night and morning, and large

pect that the president of the United States should, on his accession to office, forget that he was the nominee of 8 political party, and act only as if he were the chief magistrate of free people, all of whose lawful interests it is his duty to promote and conserve. But if we cannot attain the idea of a perfectly dispassionate and absolutely nonpartisan incumbent to the office, we have at least some right to object to the spectacle of president throwing himself into the thick of the struggle for the election of his successor, collect ing and discharging party ammunition, which it is the business of others 70 handle, and giving and receiving i'm putations of unveracity and bad faith which marifestly tend to lower the rs, spect due to his great office. It is quite intelligible that a president of the United States who has rssolately set himself to securing the adoption of certain principles and policies which he deemed vitally essential to the national welfare should feel impelled to come to their defense whenever they are as. sailed, and to throw all the influence which he possesses into tho effort to in sure their continuance. But president, who, in his anxiety to defend his own administration and perpetuate the poli- cies which he favored, finds it necessary to assume personal responsibility for corrupt accusations against those who have opposed him, makes very ser ious tumble of his public duty and his private animosities.

CHA COUNTY SHOULD ACT.

As the time approaches for the open. ing of the fourth Arizona fair, it is urged that the citizens of Gila county, the mining companies and boards of trade get together and see that com prehensive exhibit of the county's re- sources is shown at the fair. The com. missioner for this county is Judge J. F. Hechtman, and information concerning exhibits and premium books can be SC. cured from him, or by application to the secretary of the fair, at Phoenix. Interest in the forthcoming fair must not be allowed to lag, and this year s fair must be made the biggest and best ever held in the southwest.
 Gila county should undoubtedly have several entries in the cowboy relay race, for which purses aggregating $500 have been offered. Globe should also send a team to contest for the thousand dollars offered for the hose race contests, and bring home at least one of the magnifi- cent trophies offered to the winners.
 There will probably be baseball tournament and Globe is certainly in a position to take down a good chunk of glory and the No. prize.
 But above all good mineral exhibit should be made.
