THOU SHALT Nor LIE,

The Saford Journal in its last issue misreprcscnts an editorial recently pub, lished in the Silver Belt. Whether the misrepresentation was willful or other wise, We have no means of knowing. If the latter, the reverend editor of the Journal is in sore need of new pair of spcctaclcs. The Silver Belt is quoted as being in favor of Separating man from his appetite for liquor by legis- lation, when t precisely stated that such attempts had proven futile, all though temptation had been removed to some extent by the enforcement of prohibition laws. The attempt of the Journal to discredit this paper and mis- represent it by what appears to us to be w.llful prevarication, does not re- fleet any considerable credit on it's editor, who entered the field of journal ism from the pulpit. No matter that the cause for which he is fighting that of proh;bition--is a righteous one, it does not justify rcsorting to dcspicablc methods to further that cause The Lord, we are told, pities the drunkard, but 9e hates liar.

Next to the Phoenix Ga zette, the Republican is the best plot discoverer in the territory The Repub- lican has discovered a network of intrigue and wholesale political iobbcry in the ranks of the Cocbise county Re publicans. Not in the ranks. exactly. but in the machine. There is always 2 Republican machine in Cochiya county. though occasionally it shifts bosses; not shift bosses, more like jiggers. Cochise has been toutcd by the Republicans. as well as the Democratic papers as strongly opposed to instructions and now it has been disclosed that the anti instruetionists who are also anti-ad ministrationists, anti,Taftists and would be antidotes for Rooseveltitis. have been maliciously, wilfully and ruthlessly iobbed by the Cochise county machine, which has made deal with Governor Kibboy whereby the aforesaid machine becomes an auxiliary to the federal official machine.

NEW KIND OF FLoTAT1oN.

There are several characteristics of the Miami Copper company Notation which should appeal strongly to mining men and promoters, in addition to in- vcstors. Together with the high stand ing of those connected with the com paEy, is the fact that all information regarding the acquisition of the proper ty, promotion and hotat,ou. profits, etc, has been placed at the disposal of pros peetivc purchasers of shares, the com pany inviting the fullest investigation as 10 original costs and profits. If such course were followed in other aotations, there would be little of the fake mining and wildcattiHg, which has given the in dustry, especially in Nevada, a badly diseolorcd optic.
 While some might consider such leg, islatiye action rs too radical. we believe that if the course pursued by the Miami company were made compulsory to all new mining companies which offer their shares to the public, by an act of the territorial legislature, t would result in boost for the mining business, the value of which could hardly be esti. mated, as well as saving of millions to the public.
 The Globe district may well feel proud of the advent of such interests in the district as those connected with the Miami Copper company.

Roosevelt, today issued reply to the

the latest outbreak of the president
without resorting to the use of Ian
as that which put the presidents utter
ance in class by itself in the official
literature of the high office he holds
Whatever provocation Mr.. Roosevelt
may have felt pricking his soul, nothing
could justify or eXtenuate the torrent
of invective and virulence which he
poured out in state paper upon the
head of private citizens.

SPEECH OF PRESIDENT-ELECT
AT BANQUET OF OHIO SOCi-

New York, Dec. 16.-President-elect
William H. Taft was the guest of hon
or tonight at the twenty-third annual
dinner of the Ohio society of New York.
Around the 100 tables placed in the
grand ball room in Astor gallery of the
Waldorf-Astoria hotel. Were men gath
cred from every section of the country
and leaders in many walks Of life.
Mr. Taft took advantage of the occa-
sion in speech filled with more earn
estness than any he has delivered since
his election. to pledge his administra-
ton and his party so far as he can con-
troll it, to a loyal adherence to the Chi
cage platform. He dwelt almost wholly
upon the revision of the tariff, which he
singled out as the most important dec
Iaration made at the last national con-
vention. and after having previously
referred to the veto power of the chief
executive, said, with all the emphasis
of which he was capable:
Better no revision at all, better that
the new bill should fail unless We have
an honest and thorough revision on the
basis laid down and the principle out
lined in the party platform
Mr.. Taft also referred to the Sher-
man antitrust law, and declared for its
enforcement as one of the Roosevelt
policies that the party had pledged it
self to carry forward.
