THE HOSTS OF RIGHT.

An editorial in the Bloomington
tIlI) Paragraph is worthy of more
than passing note. The editor says:
In these days when so many peo-
pie go wrong, it may be well enough
TO remember how many there are
who go right. The newspapers blaz-
on all the bad breaks of humanity
but they do not pretend to keep track
of all who behave themselves and are
faithful to every trust"
When we are apt to be pessimistic
regarding present-day human nature
it might be we'll to recall this fact
The story of scandal is seldom true tc
average life else it would not be Z
story. The scandals We read in the
newspapers are not the usual thing
else they would not be scandals anC
would not be published Individual in
tegrity is everywhere. The great ma
iority Of men and women want to d.
right want to live right, want to b.
square and honest and honorable. Tn,
exception TO the rule makes the story

COLLECTOR o'KEEFE.

The appointment of Con O'Keefe of
Nogales to the office of collector of
customs at the port of Nogales was
probably the result of the endorse
ment given to him by Governor Kib-
hey and the members of the territor-
ial administration While the many
friends of George L. Bugbee through
out the territory will regret that he
could not secure this position, still
those who know Con O'Keefe will ad-
NIT that a responsible man has been
placed in charge of the customs bust
hess at Nogales. O'Keefe was one of
the adverse claimants TO the proper
ty at Cananea now owned by the
Greene ananea company, over which
there was so much determined litiga-
ton between Greene and O'Keefe
during the early days Of that camp.
OKeefe was at the head Of what was
known as the Cobre-Grande company,
while Greene was claiming the same
properties for the Cananea Consoli-
dated Copper company. At one time
oKeefe was jailed at Cananea for re-
fusing to deliver some papers effect
ing the title to the litigated property
ON the order of the local court at
Cananea.. The litigation between
Greene and O,Keefe was bitter and
determined and resulted In making
small fortunes for several Of the Ari-
IONA and Mexico attorneys. Suits
came thick and fast at Csnanea, at
the City of Mexico. at FL Paso, at
Phoenix, at Prescott and at New
York. Finally Greene was victorious
but not until considerable stock had
been Turned over 10 the o'Keefe
crowd as a compromise. O'Keefe
since the ending Of the famous Cana
nea litigation, has resided in Nogales
and has always been more or less &C
tive in politics Two years ago he
was the republican candidate for sher
if but was defeated by the democrat
ic candidate. He was prominent IN
the recent republican territorial con
yention at Tucson and when the spill
occurred he grabbed the banner OF
Santa Cruz county and followed Gov
e,nor Kibbey out of the hall. Mr.
oReefe is very popular, personally
and is regarded as one Of the jolly
Irishmen Of the territory.

The BROADER VIEW.

The members OF the senate ,seem
to be widely divided upon the ques-
ton of the preservation Of the forests
as an important issue in the present
and future of this country. Within
not very clearly defined lines it would
appear that the division upon the
question is somewhat geographical.
rather than political The senators
from states having vast forest tracts
within their bounds do not in gener-
al favor the governments assuming
control of the timber lands and ad-
ministering for their preservation, be
cause such government control inter
feres with certain Of the privileges
coveted by citizens of those states.
The senators from the prairie states
and from the commonwealth whose
timber lands are already depopulat-
ed on the other hand, are most eager
in their support of the forest service
policies. says the Washington Post.
Undoubtedly there are just and rea-
sonable grounds~for the convictions
of both sides to the controversy. The
whole question has been thrashed ov-
.er so thoroughly that little new light
can be thrown upon it from any an
gle Especially is this true of any
approval of the government policy.
The need of our forests, the import
ance Of preserving them to posterity,
and the vast benefits to be derived
from federal control of a portion of
them have all been widely exploited
by the advocates of a large forest re
serve.
1t would seem, however, to any dis
interested judge that the western
sentiment is narrowed to local needs

WRONG IMPRESSION
| SAYS MAYOR CAVEN
Appears to Have Been Created
in Regard to His Attitude
Toward Warren.

The following letter of Mayor c. L.
Cayen is self-explanatory:
AS there appears to have been
created an impression that, in the
event of my reelection to the Office
of mayor l would favor the upbuild-
ing of Warren at the expense Of Bis
bee, l wish to make by position I'M
derstood in the matter.
In the first place. IMPROPERLY in
terests are all within the town limits
of Bisbee, END the building up OF Bis
bee and Tombstone Canyon are mat
tiers In Which L have conferred all of
my efforts, to which the records of
the past two years viii bear testi-
mony.
Secondly, have at no time express
ed myself favorable to the location of
the court house at Warren, and
should the matter come up / wish 1t
distinctly understood that l am first,
last and always in favor of Bisbee and
will use every effort within my power
to have the court house located in
Bisbee. c. l.. CAVEN.

PUBLIC BUILDINGS

On a train one day this week a re-
publican took occasion to criticise
Hon. Mark Smith, delegate in con
gress from Arizona because he had
not secured public buildings to be
erected IN the territory by the gov
eminent. Such criticism is not war
ranted for the reason that there are
few places in the territory now and
there have been fewer in the past
where the government would be justi-
fed in erecting a public building. The
government is not supposed to erect
buildings except where it has sufi-
cient public Offices to justify it. We
understand that Mr.. Smith is now
hopeful of getting an appropriation
during the present session for a gov
eminent building at Phoenix. AT
Phoenix the government has a num-
Der of public Offices to be accommo-
dated for which rent is now being
paid to the territory and to private
property owners in that city, There
is the surveyor generals office, the
United States attorneys Office, the
United States land Office, the federal
court, the postoffice, etc.
In the near future the next public
building which will be required will
perhaps be in Douglas. That will be
the case when the business of the
customs house here and the business
in the immigration Office and postof
fee business shall grow to such pro
portions as to demand a government
building for their accommodation a.
less expense than the rental amounts
to.
1t can be depended upon that Mari
Smith will overlook no opportunity tt
secure all that is possible for Arizona
in the way of public buildings wher
it is possible, but it need not be ex
pected that he will be able to put {
public building in every town in tht
territory.

MORE TROUBLE
FOR JOHN BARLEYCORN.

Between the almost universal pro-
hibition movement and the pure food
law John Barleycorn and his shops
are having a hard time. On July 1,
the pure food law in relation to all
alcoholic drinks will go into effect
and after that what is known as
straight whisky" that is, whisky
that has been aged by time and not
mixed with other spirits, will alone
be entitled to the name of whisky"
Blended or compounded whisky must
be marked on the barrel in Letters
at least one inch long and burned in
to the barrel Blended Whisky" A
mixture of whisky with alcohol, pro-
vided there is enough potable spirits
to make real compound and not a
semblance of one, will be marked as
r compound Of" Such spirits with
The distillant with which it is mixed,
commercial alcohol, or wines which
have been manipulated by the aid of
artificial fiavors, colors or extracts so
IS to resemble some particular kind
Of spirits, will be marked with the
name Of such spirits, preceded with
the word Imitation" This will make
great revolution in the business of
roctifying or blending whisky for
most of the whisky now sold is com
pounded, blended or initiated within
the meaning of the pure food act and
lfter July l, none of these products
e leave the place of manufacture
without carrying a mark which will
Indicate to the common mind that the

Any comfort shown the republi-
cans now will only give them courage
to fight the harder for success in the
county and in the territory this fall.
If the democratic party is to remain
in the ascendancy in Arizona It must
be by solid front of the democrats
whenever the time comes for political
fighting. The republicans are fight
ing now as they have never fought
before in the hope of securing an en-
tering wedge for the fall campaign;
they should be met by the democrats
and routed once for all in the ap-
preaching city election.

MILITARY ADVANTAGES
or FORT GRANT.

According to a report from Wilcox
Colonel Stewart, who has been at
tracing some attention in army cir
Giles during the past sixty days, has
again reached that point on his way
from Florida to Fort Grant. Evident
ly, 1t is the intention of the president
to continue Colonel Stewart at his
present post of duty. This affair of
Colonel Stewart has given Fort Grant
great deal of notoriety, and while
the name of this old post is before
the public we desire to call the at
tention of the war department to the
many advantages offered at Fort
Grant, for the establishment there of
field artillery garrison. This Ari.
iona post possesses many Of the nat.
uraI advantages for such garrison,
namely, rolling country for practice
purposes, a great variety of ranges
for target practice varying from any
distance up to eight miles. The i'm
proyements at Fort Grant have cost
the government about one and one
half million dollars, and many Of the
buildings are still in fairly good re,
pair. The commanding officers house
has recently been fitted up by Colonel
Stewart and put in first class repair.
The question of permanent water
supply at Fort Grant has been
brought up in the past. On this ques-
ton, an S. P. engineer has reported
that water in great abundance could
be had by sinking a well to q depth
of less than one hundred feet at any
point within the boundaries Of the
post Such a well could be used the
entire year at such times when the
pipe line did not furnish water to the
post. 1t will be remembered that
Fort Grant military post was fur
nished with water from wells long
before the pipe line was built into
the mountains.
Another advantage for a field ar,
tilIery garrison at Fort Grant is. that
owing to the dry climate, lack of fog
and transforms. a great amount of
cleaning, polishing and rust could be
avoided.
One by one the old army posts in
Arizona have been abandoned. Estab.
lisLed in the early days for the pro-
lection of the settlers from the raw
ages of the Apaches, their usefulness
for this purpose has long since disap-
peared The most beautiful site for
military post in the southwest is at
Fort Grant. Nestled close in the
foothills of the Graham mountains, at
an elevation of probably 5000 feet, it
enjoys delightful climate, and the
surrounding country would AFFORD am
PIE opportunity and convenience for
SLY aInoant of military maneuvera,
and especially artillery and cavalry
While Colonel Stewart is ostensibly
in military exile at Fort Grant, no
doubt the war department at Wash.
ington would be glad to have him
point out the many good arguments
in favor of Fort Grant.

N. Y. FOR BRYAN
BY 100000 STRONG

New York, Sept. 26.-State Chair
man Corners has made public figures
of his preliminary canvas of the state,
which he says show that Bryan would
carry the Estate by 100000 plurality
Mr.. Corners said.
"The reports received by me show
that the democrats will carry 81 ont OF
the 60 counties and that in Manhattan
Mr.. Bryan will receive 1856, 900 plurality
and in Kings county he will receive
$4,000 plurality, making 100000 plu-
rality for Greater New York. Taft
will come down to the river with prob
ably $4,000 plurality and Bryan will
carry the state by a clean 100000.
Lieutenant Governor Chandler, how
ever, will have at least the same dem
ooratic plurality in the city and will
come down the river with a plurality
that will exceed that of Hughes"

tion, regretted that three or four per-
sons from Greeneville tried to force the
nomination Of Greene county candi-
date, but their action was 80 utterly
undemocratic and so completely out of
reason that he did accept the nomina-
ton and will make the race upon the

BIG PLANTS RESUME
The Allen Panel Co. and Standard

Yesterday morning the Allen Panel
Co. resumed operations with full
force and the Standard Oak Veneer Co.
on reducee scale. The Interior Hard
wood Co. is being operated also by the
Allen Panel Co, by agreement in the
lease. For time the plants will be
operated by receivers Fred Johnson,
S. @. Williams and G. B. Allen until
the reorganization agreed upon by
the creditors can be consmmated,
The receivers returned Monday from
New York where they had long con;
ference with Ithe creditors and the re-
suit above agreed to and signed by all
one of the creditors, who will sign
later.
The resumption of work by these

The PAYING PROGRESSING
Many Additional Streets Are to Be
Paved Before Contractors Get
Away From Johnson City.

The work OF paving the streets first
contracted for has been about complet-
ed. but other streets are to be included
and Kelley Bros. may be kept here
several weeks longer.
The additional streets that will prob
ably be paved are East Main from Roam
TO Division, and East to Market from
Roam to the top of the hill, for which
practically all the AUDITING property
holders have signed. The North of the
stree car track from Spring street to
the Southern railroad, and the street
on the East side of the Public Square,
from Market to Main streets.
These streets are practically certain
to be paved. Interested parties are at
work getting proerty holders on West
and West Market from the Southern
railroad to Boone street to agree to
pave, and in all probability Roam street
from the Southern railroad to Watauga
avenue will be included. This would
give Johnson City not only the best
paved streets possible to get, but more
yardage than any town of its size in
the South.
1t is understood Mr.. Geo. L. Carter
will pave several miles of streets in the
Southwest addition at once. Let the
good work go on!
