inmates. Each machine seats 13, and
with &c feet working the pedals they
run very easily and smoothly. The
leader is, of course, an attendant, and

JURY Is SCORED
in LIQUOR CASE

Judge Bush, At Vicksburg, Pours Hot
Shot Into Dozen Jurymen
for Failure To Convict.

Vicksburg. Dec. lin the GRIM
inal court yesterday afternoon the jury
In the case Of Mike Guida, charged
with violating the prohibition law,
brought in verdict of not guilty, and
in turn the jury was severely criti-
cised BY Judge Bush. The court in
giving the instructions to the jury d.
rected that If it was believed that de-
fendant had taken SO from P. Man
None to purchase for him two dozen
bottles Of beer and had purchased the
beer, then the defendant was guilty as
charged and the jury should find &C.
cordingly. In addressing the jury
after the acquittal, Judge Bush said
that 1t was not his custom to lecture
or criticise the jury as to their verdict,
but that until jurors carried out in
structions of the court, there is no use
OF the grand jury finding indictments
It Is not the duty of the juror to Judge
OF the law in case, but to weigh the
facts presented. Judge Bush told the
jury that he could not think that they
had wflfully acted in violation of
sworn duty, but in the failure to act in
accordance with the instructions of
the court they had made him feel al
most like telling them they were dis.
charged from service, and never to re-
port back for jury service again.

Democrats Satisfied
 With TheIr Votes

Recently Harry Vince CT, formerly captain o! 'he Arizona rangers, made the statement that many of the dem ocrstic members Of the last legi la = ture have expressed regret tha. they voted 10 abolish the rangers, and that if they had to cs-t their votes over sga'n they would vote U keep the rangers.
 To determine just how much truth there might be Tn WLeeiers assertion. the nine democrats ofthe council were asked if they sould again vte to sholsh the rangers and here are their replies:
 James B Finley, Pima and Santa Cruz" m well satlsf d ~ith my vote on ranger bill. Wou oppose reinstatement.
 Rean St Charles, Mohave-' No"
 George w P Hunt, Gils-i voted in the 18th to abolish the rahger-; also in 26th. To reinstate tie rsn- gers would be useless expense to the tsrritory"
 Eugene Brady O'N-ill, Maricopa- "The act abolishing the rangers was one o' the best acts passed by the Legislature; I woul fight the re- establishment of the rangers
 George w Norton, Yums-"i would not vote to reinstste rangers"

Col. Pickett's Views
 Elicit Commentator

The speech gas iavorsbly re ceiyed by lesiing democrats oi the territ " and many Arizona news papers highly conmsnied the viess expressed by c l"nel Pickett. HE PRosFECroR repr. dues an editorial comment from t.ie Phoenix Democrat regarding the cnlonei's speech, in al of which We heartily concur. The Democrat ssvs:
 "The politicians of Ariz ma em t he overlooking the primary elect""n law. If the Dsm ,crat mistakes not, the primary election law is going tr make some msterisl changes ID the affairs of both poli.Ic,l parties beforC next September. In fact the speecl of Col H l. Pickett at the demo cratic mass meeting fast week | something of iorerunner of what Il 0oing to occur in Ariz"ns. COlcne' Pickett said that the democrs:it party cou'd make no mistake 1T trusting to the people of Arizona and that it shou d see that the ;rmsr' election law was enforced in such { manner as to give the voters tht freest access to the machinery
 the party. In this Colon T F. kett i; eminently correct. We have had enough of machine and gag rule ir Arizona. Hereafter the people nus be given a chance. If they nomi nate a man they will certainly vct for him and by placing the power ii their hands the democratic party vii win their confd spce and support.

For Prevention
 of Pneumonia

The season is at hand for pneumonia to begin striking it's victims In e bulletin iust issued ny the health de- par men; Of Chicsgo. the whole prob lem oi avoiding pneumnnis l. st forth so clearly and so briefly that we re- produce it:
 Cold weather does no. directly cause pneumonis. but it is sn indirect cause. It causes injudicious people to shut themselves up indoors. closi' g windows and d.,ors, SO that they may be comfortably warm. Closed win dows means lack of proper ventilation, the indoor air sOnn b-co ming very foul. When this foul air is t ken into the lungs it fails to impsrt the necessary health sustsip'ne elements that inhaled air should; r.thsr it poisons the body, lowers the natural resisting powers and creates fertile soil for the invasion snd dsveiopmrn Ut oi the pneumohia germ.
 "The th'ng to do IS to stop lowering your resisting power. Quit poisoning yourself with foul air. Breathe gooo, pure air all the time-especislly while sleeping. Keep your windows open day and night. Don't be afraid Of cold air. Pure cold cir does not csu-e pneu.nonis. l. is dirty, foul air ths, causes the trouble"
 Not only Is fresh air the best pre- ven,stiye ot pneumonia, but it Is a potent aid 10 cure. In some of the New York hospitals pneumonis pa tien,s are placed on open air porches during their illness, with most excel lent results.
