As the ides Of November approach,
speculations are becoming rife as to the
standard bearers to be put forth By the
different political organizations for the
coming municipal election. The situa
ton appears complicated from the fact
that, from present Indications. II seems
that there will be four tickets in the
field. namely the Citizens ticket. the
Republican. Democratic. and an Amer

Lawrence Greene has been mentioned
as well as that OF Rodney Badger.
Either one, il is claimed BY local mem

In the Democratic ranks the name

GOOD CHANCE FOR
 DEPENDABLE CENSUS
Opportunity to Get an Accurate Count
 of Phoenix Population.

Owing to the pressure upon the local printing offices, caused by the legis- lative work, the publishers of the new directory have been delayed somewhat in getting to press, and this delay may make a difference Of several weeks in the delivery of the new book.
 The last directory contained a total of about 1000 names for Phoenix, and in this is included the names of the wives os the married males. The names of the wives are omitted in the new directory. and when it is stated that despite this the forthcoming book will contain somewhere between 10000 and 12,50O names, some idea may be formed of the thoroughness of the present canvass. The new book, in short, will be more than twice as large as any directory ever before Issued of the city. When the canvass began the publishers worked upon the theory that the population of the city was not over IA, ,0OO-an estimate which they have so far revised as to add about 5000 more to the total. It really begins to look as if the people of Phoenix numbered close to 20.000 souls and real estate agents, as Bill Nye would say.
 The publishers are now at work put ting in the time while waiting to go to press in making a street enumera- tion-that is, taking the houses con secutively as they come and listing the people therein. This is just the re- verse of the classification in the di- rectory, which is made alphabetically without reference to the houses num- bered in sequence. The importance of the latter work lies in the fact that it gives an almost absolute census of the city.
 And this raises a point that is worth

BAD BREATH AND
 SOUR STOMACH
Stopped At Once With Pure Willow Charcoal, the Greatest Gas
 Absorber Known.

There is no necessity to suffer the humiliation chagrin and discomfort of bad breath, biliousness, sour stomach, gastritis, sluggish liver, etc, when little loZenze of charcoal will clease the stomach and make it pure and sweet. Ss-1f sr.-
 Do not drug yourself when a sim: pie little natural charcoal made from fragrant willow branches, sweetened with honey, will add tone to your stomach, liver and intestines, rapidly absorb gases and stop foul odors of all kinds.
 Charcoal. will absorb one hundred times its own volume in gas. A box full of charcoal placed in a bed room win keep the air of such room pure and sweet.
 A little charcoal lozenze dissolved on the tongue after meals will also keep the stomach fresh and clean. Charcoal is justly called the scrub ping brush for the stomach. The old monks of medieval times cured bad cases of stomach trouble, cast out devils from the system of man by feeding such a man cahrcoal.
 Scientific men of today believe in the great strength of charcoal for the cure of human ills. The system craves it just like an animal needs and craves salt every so often. Char coal goes into the stomach gently and is welcome, it settles down through the action of the stomach, and filters through all the food, ab sorbing gas, aiding digestion and giving tone to the juices. so that when the food goes into the intes- tines, and there meets other diges- tive fluids, the charcoal holds the i'm purities and thus keeps them from the blood.
 Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are made from pure willow They are prepared fragrant by the use of hon ey and sweetened so they please the taste and are easily dissolved.
 They have an enormous sale, thus stamping them with the approval of the public. Every druggist sells them, 25 cents per box. Go to your druggist today and buy a box then after your next meal take two or three of them and judge for yourself of their merit. -
 Several taken at bed time will prove to you in the morning that they have been at work all night, for your bad breath will not be so bad after all.

WANTS A ISLANDER LAW

To the Editor of The Republican:
 Sir-The present legislature affords most interesting study in civic government, but the instruction seems to be principally confined to the primary class.
 With one member offering bills to make 1t punishable for one to make an off-colored remark about a bank ing institution, and another seeking to give more protection to the poor, misguided merchant who trusts not wisely but too well, it would seem that about every interest is looked after except the common people. 2 One defect in our present legal code is the lack of a penalty for islander. We have law on our sta-. tute books against libel, and we can punish the man who steals our prop erty. But. for the infamous wretch who stabs a mans character in the dark, there is no discipline. - There is not a civilized state in the Union but makes islander and defamation of character either a felony or a mis- demeanor.
 At the next term of the district court there will be one of the most cases, (civil and criminaD docketed ever tried in Ariozna-one that has taken over a year to amass the evidence. It involves a conspir- acy to put man out of business by assassinating his character The fact was clear enough and 1t was easy to prove the islander charge, but Arizona not making slander a crime it became a matter of proving con spiracy-a far more difficult thing Aren't there enough lawyers in the legislature to realize where we are shy in this rspect?

HIGHEST PRICE PAID

120,0o0 Pounds Sold Yesterday Morn
 ing for 2134 Gents Pound.

The highest price paid for wool this year was given yesterday fin exchange for two lots of 120000 pounds. The price was PEA cents a pound. The shrinkage is estimated at 61 per cent. This lot was bought by Jeremiah Will Hams of Boston.
 There are now twelve buyers from eastern cities bidding for the product. The competition is sharp and prices strong ]. w.

20,OOO people in Phoenix, such a list would be os positive value next year as a guide to the census people in getting all the city's population, and instead of Phoenix being showed up as a small town of about 5000 1t would be credited with what belonged to it. As the census will be taken next year this point is worth consideration while the present canvass is being made.

Now for the "other papers from members
of the Roberts family proving clearly every
thing that I have said about you, and even
more"
These "other papers," which are not pro-
duced, turn out to be statements which Norton
claims were made in letters to him by the same
Mrs. Maggie A. Lambert. Is Mrs. Lam
bert more than one member Of the Roberts
family? Why call her members?
The letters which Norton alleges he got
from Mrs. Lambert make different statement
about the paper that Watson is alleged to have
lost When she was making the affidavit, she
thought it was Allison's will When she
wrote these "other papers" it was a deed.
Mrs. Lambert says that it was in 1876, and
that | told her father, Mr.. Jack Roberts, that
| would get the money in few weeks. What
money? Why that $4,000 Of Gwyn Allison's
estate,-the amount Norton said was left after
paying the Greene County legacy of $4,000.
Now listen: when [ received that astound-
ing letter from Norton, in which he said that
he was prepared to prove that had stolen the
Allison estate, | got quite interested [ at
once applied to the Ordinary of Greene County
for transcript of the official records to show
what went with the Gwyn Allison estate
Judge Columbus Heard was also requested to
get busy, and report
After an interval Of one day, received lust
what was wanted. The Ordinary, Hon. T. Fl.
McWhorter, wrote me the courteous letter
which will be found elsewhere He also sent
a copy of Alllson's will, a copy of the Inven-
tory and Appralsement of the estate return
OF the sales; and copy of the proceedings
d1sm1ss1ng James L. Brown, the Administrator
de bonis, UPON THE GROUND THAT HE
HAD FULLY ADMINISTERED ALL THE
ASSETS, ACCORDING TO THE WILL.
The will is dated April 20, 1865. It was
probated in common form September 4th, 1865,
and recorded the next day.
from that day to this anybody who needed
a copy could have written or gone, or sent to
Greensboro and got it.
The land was sold for $1,000 This bears
out Judge Heards wonderful memory.

deeds, copy of will, etc, were utterly
without value.
Would you not have supposed that this
showing, from the records, would have CON
WINGED Norton that his charges were I'M
founded?
What think you of the man who, in the face
of such COMMISSIONING as was made in this
case, would write to me that he had the evil
dence to prove all he had said against me, and
even more?
Now turn to his pitiful letter, printed on
other page, and then study his "affidavt and
other papers, proving clearly everything that
| have said about you, and even more"
What is his evidence? An affidavit of Mrs
Maggie Lambert (who lives in Texas, grand
daughter of Mrs. Starke
In Nortons letter he had said that the
$4,000 Of the estate was left by a "Mr. Allison
and his widow, Mrs. Starke, to educational
purposes, the remainder to Mrs. Starke and her
heirs. This was confusing enough we should
think. Especially was it bewildering when we
discovered that this Mr. Allison was an old
bachelor
But Mrs Maggie Lambert clears that part
of it UP. She says that her grandmother was
the daughter of one of Gwyn Allisons broth
ers!
Oh, indeed! Then that big estate is get
ing away DdCk YOnQer, sure enough. Here
we have grandchildren accusing folks
of gobbling the estate of great-grandfather's
brother!
Well! Well And Norton pleads as his
excuse that he has been hearing of this for
sixteen years Yet, Norton thought the for
tune came to his wife and Maggie Lambert
through "Alison and his widow Mrs. Starke.'
Now, let's turn from Norton and listen to
what Mrs. Lambert says. In her affidavit,
Mrs. Lambert swears that, according to her
understanding, Watson lost Gwyn AlIisons
will
BUT THE WILL HAS NEVER BEEN
LOST!
1t is in the Ordinarys office, at Greensboro;
ard Norton could have got copy any day, by
simply writing to the Ordinary. If he were
not such an Ignorant man he would know that
the Executor of Allison had to carry the will
to the Ordinary's office and that it was the
Ordinary's duty to keep it there, and put it on
record. This he did, in September, 1865.
Mrs. Maggie Lambert makes the same mis-
take that Norton (who married one of the
Roberts girls, sister of Mrs Lambert made
about Mcdaniel, whom she accuses of
holding possession of the estate and re-
fusing to come to a settlement. Nc
Daniel never had possession Of the Allison
estate, and was not the man to make any set
Element.
So much for the affidavit before me on my
desk"
