LyRChiRgS in 1909.

Lynchings in 1909 have numbered 70
the highest number recorded since 1904
The victims numbered IL whites and 5e
negroes, and were distributed over
twelve States and one territory, New
Mexico. AS in previous years, crimes,
or alleged crimes against white women
and murders caused most of these sum-
mary executions. One case, occurring
in Cairo, ILL.,, combined both causes and
resulted in the placing of the city under
military control for several days. The
Cairo lynchings were the only cases of
the kind that occurred north of the Ohio
river during the year. Several double
lynchings occurred at various points in
the South, while Oklahoma furnished a
quadruple lynching, with four cattle
men as the victims. By States the sew
enty lynching cases here recorded are
classified as follows: Georgia, IL; Tex.
as, 10; Florida. s; Louisiana, q; Missis-
sippi, Z; Alabama, 6; Oklahoma, s; Ken
tucky, d; South Carolina. 8; Arkansas,

Clint Trent Gets Is Years.

Big Stone Gap, Va, Dec. 2O.-Clint
Trent, who has been in the Lebanon Jail
since last August, charged with the
murder of three Greeks and of seriously
wounding two other men at Dante, has
been sentenced to fifteen years in the
penitentiary at Richmond.
The killing. as reported at the time,
grew out of undue anxiety on the part
OF the Greeks to get their pay from a
contractor, and becoming impatient took
some of the contractors tools to their
shanty, firing on an associate who went
to claim the property.
Trent, an employe at the mines near
by, attracted by the shooting. ran to
the shanty and engaged in the melee,
killing two men instantly, the third dy-
ing in only few hours.

MORE REPLIES RECEIVED.
Standing of Members Of Legislature on
Statewide Question,

A Richmond dispatch published in the
State papers on Sunday says:
Eighteen additional members of the
Legislature have replied during the
week to the request for statement as
to their position on the liquor question.
Ot these, two members of the House.
both Republicans, favor Statewide pro-
hibition- Four Senators and five House
members are for local option.
Five House members are either in
doubt or do not care to express them
selves at this time. They say they are
for local option, but would vote to sub
NIT Statewide bill to the people, pro-
viding there is a popular demand for
such action.
THE eighteen replies received this
week, added to the original result,
shows the following situation in the
Legislature:
Senate poll: For local option, II;
for Statewide prOhibitSon, a; not voting,
10.
House poll: For local option, So;
for Statewide prohibition, 10; non-com-
initial, Z; prefer local option, but would
vote to submit, 3; not voting, %.
"A recapitulation of the vote by par
ties shows the following result:
Democrats: For local option, Ga;
all others, IS.
Republicans: For local option, 5;
for Statewide prohibition, 6.
Separated as to both parties and
house, the showing is as follows:
''In the Senate-Democrats: For To-
cal option, Is; for Statewide prohibi-
tion, 2.
Republicans: For local option, 2:
for Statewide prohibition, 2. Total
Senators voting, 21; total not voting, 10:
Democrats not voting, II; Republicans
not voting, 2.
I'm the House-Democrats: For To-
cal option, 49; for Statewide prohibi-
tion, 6; doubtful or non-committal. 7:
for local option. but would vote to sub
NIT, g. Republicans: For local option.
3; for Statewide prohibition. A. Total
members voting, 70; total not voting,
rs; Democrats not voting, %; Republi-
cans not voting, 6.
"Only two of the eighteen replies ap-
pear to Indicate preference for prohi-
bition, and both of these are from Re
publicaDs.
while the number of those doubtful
or non-committal has increased, and
while AZ of the 140 members have not
replied, there is no reason to suppose
that were their views known there
would be any change in the situation.
Nevertheless, these are only the per-
soDal expressions of the members of
the two houses, acting without instruc-
tions from their constituentn. If a bill
to submit the question to the people of
the State was presented with sufficient
public sentiment behind it, it is the gen
eral belief among thinking people that
it would pass. That such bill will be
presented in some form or other there
is scarcely any doubt. Neither is there
any real doIbt that such bill would be
adopted -

SERIES OF CONCERTS
 HAS BEEN ARRANGED
The First Entertainment by Sym phony Orchestra, March 2.

The Phoenix Symphony orchestra has arranged a series of four sym phonic concerts, the first one being scheduled for Tuesday evening, March 2, at the Arizona School of Music. Those who were fortunate enough to have been present at the one given last June in the Elks' theater will be delighted with the news. Several new musicians have been added to the organization and it is promised by the managers that the coming se- ries will be even more interesting than the one given last season.
 Among the new members of the orchestra are Carl Thomas, an oboist of no little fame, and Stanislaus Scherzel Scherzel is a pupil of the famous Emile Sauret of Paris and also of Jose Marien of Brussels. He is well known in musical circles and has toured the country in concert work. He will act as concert master for the orchestra. Prof. J. Homer Grunn will be one of the soloists of the first concert. Those who have heard him. in piano solos will be par ticularly interested in his first ap- pearance in Phoenix in a concerto for piano with orchestra. Subscrip- tion sheets are out and undoubtedly the project will be a distinct suc- cess.
