Mark Smith Turned Down.

At meeting of the democratic cen
trail committee Saturday night the Eu-
gene Brady O'Neill crowd were in
complete control and (by proxy Mark
Smith received a most unkind snub.
Ed Mayes introduced II resolution com
plimentary of Mark Smith az Arizona's
delegate in congress; it was voted down
by vote of II to 9. d. L. DeVane, a
strong O'Neill man, was elected TO the
late NJ. j. Nugent's place on the cen
trial committee, and friends of the
"silver-tongued prohibitionist" were
chosen as delegates to the Tucson con-
vention. These are Q. i. Bondesson,
S. T. DeCorse. w. G. Crowder, G. L.
Myers, w. +. Timmons, y. l.. DeVane,
felix Mayhem and w. E. Marvin.
The O'Neill riders are flushed with
their victory and are in the saddle to
win at the finale. The Mark Smith
contingent are apparently not worried
over Saturday nights little skirmish,
for, as one of them said, that was only
the first round and this is no limited
contest Mark Smith is the choice of
Yuma democrats and be would carry
the county with a whoop."

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh

from them. Halls Catarrh Cure, man

A Woman Tells How to Relieve

from the dreadful disease, rheumatism,

many medicines but never got much

kept on applying it and soon felt like a

many of my friends have tried it and
can tell you how wonderfully it has
worked.-Mrs. Sarah a. Cole, no S.

Only SI.OO For Wild Cat Hides.

The board of Supervisors of Pima
county have cut the bounty on wild
cats to SL00. Concerning the action
of the board the Star says:
ga Skin Game, or Woes of Wolf
Hunter" would be "a fit title for
serio. comedy that might be written.
concerning troubles of the bounty
hunters and of the superyisoral boards.
who are endeavoripg to make both ends
meet.
Lobo bounties were nightmare for
the local board of supervisors for sew
eral years. They we're finally ruled
out by the board, and the members
thought that they would experience 10
further trouble.
Now, however, they are face to face
with a new proposition. Trappers and
hunters are bringing in Wild cat hides
and are demanding the S. reward al
lowed by the territorial statute. There
is apparently but one course open to
the supervisors and that is to pay the
demands.
However, the board today made a
new ruling. It is to the effect that
henceforth only 81 will be paid for wild
cat hides.
'''rhc last territorial legislature in a
burst of enthusiasm put a big bounty
up for wild cat hides, ;" remarked Su-
pervisor Bayless today. "Wild eats do
comparatively little damage and how
so large a bounty was put Oh the hides
is almost beyond understanding. We
have decided to pay only 81 henceforth
for each wild cat skin, which is the
regular allowance made for coyote
hides. We believe that this is ample
for these hides, as we do not consider
wild cats very destructive "
The supervisors decision to cut the
wild cat bounties from So to 81 was due
to the fact that go hides have been re-
ceived by the board during the past
three days.

DISTRICT COURT.

In the case against J. w. Marter,
who shot McQuaid II fellow railroad
emplOye, IN the eye, the criminal pro-
ceedings were stayed, it having devel-
oped that Marter was not right in his
head. Judge Kent embaneled a jury
and proceeded to the investigation of
the mans mental condition. After an
examination qy nrs. Clymer and APP
John, the court ordered Marter into
the custody of the sheriff and to be
committed to the asylum.
L. f. Robinson. co-defendant with
Marter under the Indictment charging
them with an attempt to bride the dis
trict attorney to drop the case against

In the case of Dan Brislin against
Felix Mayhem and associates, action to
recover $50 000 commission claimed for
selling the North Star mine, the jury
failed to agree and were discharged.
Under the instructions of the court the
jury, iu the event of an agreement in
favor of plaintiff. was confined to the
amount already paid to Mayhem as his
share of first payments on the mine,
which is about $4,000, and could not
allow above ten per cent of this amount
Ii is said that for some time the jury
stood six to six on allowing the full
commission of $4,000, but at the last,
stood eleven for to one against giving
Brislin $500. The case was continued

Pats Millions.

a representative of the Pat DriscOll
estate syndicate, direct from New York
City was in Kingman this week looking
up the property and vast moneyed in
terests belonging to that great estate.
He brought with him Il typewriter
copy of the story that went the rounds
of the press few years ago detailing
the eccentric manner of living of this
Arizona millionaire, of the vast wealth
realized from the mines at Chloride,
and his custom OF walking over before
breakfast daily from his home in Ash
Fork to the mines at Chloride. AS the
distance between Ash Fork and Chic
ride is about $50 miles, and although
repu;ed to be a great walker. he should
have worked up an excellent appetite
by the time he reached the mines. But
the heirs are not taking this into con-
sideratiOn. They are looking for the
millions that this peculiar old charac-
ter left behind, and there is no reason
to doubt that he left it behind, as no
one has ever been accused of taking
anything with him 10 the place that
Pat Driscoll is now popularity supposed
to inhabit. And while the whole bust
ness is a myth, no one should interfere
with the pleasure of the Pat DriscOll
syndicate in searching for the mythical
millions of this mythical old miner,
who would undoubtedly have left mill
ions to his millions of heirs had he only
struck the right lead among the great
veins of gold and silver of Mohave
cOunty.-Miner.

New York Stocks Quiet.

NEW YORK, January 22.-Price movements in the general list were lit tie more than sympathetic reflections of fluctuations in the few stocks in which professional operations were cen tered. The professionals had the mar ket largely to themselves. There was suspicion of turn in the market fostered by strong financial interests which were given credit for the support that was effective up to the end of last week. The belief gained ground that well informed insiders were gaining out stocks, but information coming to hand today offered little assurance for present expansion of business activity beyond the increase in confidence. In the early revival of demand for pro. duets to be stimulated by the relaxa- .ion of the money market, the failure of minor banking institutions in Pitts. burg and Chicago, while recognized of small importance, touched sentiment in a sensitive spot and the closing tone was decidedly heavy.

WORK FOR IDLE HANDS

A short, time ago the government came to the relief of the financial and business world, when millions were poured from the treasury for that pur. pose with but little objection. Now why could not the government come to the relief of the labor world in sim liar manner by giving employment to some part of the tens of thousands of unemployed who are roaming over the country as hoboes or congesting the lower quarters of the large cities of the country, forced in many instances to commit crime in order to obtain the necessities of lifei Should the govern. ment now go to the relief of the unem- ployed masses, but few would object on the grounds of socialism or paternal- ism. Millions are expended annually in the maintenance of public charities; the same amount paid out for labor on public improvements, such as extension of irrigation and for waterways, would serve a double purpose with a saving of money to the country and a saving of independence and pride to the un- employed workers, to whom crime is often preferable to charity. And fur thermore the nation needs the work as much as the laborers need the employ. ment.
