Patrick Calhoun may be guilty as charged and a jury may find him guilty but the constantly hostile atti- tude of the trial judge to the defense has already made it evident to law yers that the six months which the trial will have consumed have been wasted. It was as the attorneys for the defense stated yesterday "serious error" to threaten to send an attor- ney to jail for criticising in a com paratively unimportant matter the course of the prosecution, and then to hold Prosecutor Heney before the jury in the light of a martyr to his duty. It must on the other hand have been slightly humiliating to MT. Heney to have the court account for his temperamental infirmity.

character had been committed. The perpetrator was a member of a pecu- liarly hated race with whose name in the southwest are associated out rage and massacre and flames.
 The self-restraint which the people of Mesa put upon themselves was comparatively few, overcome by the horror of the thing which the Apache had done, gave way, but their weak ness was offset by the authorities determination that law should pre- vail
 Mesa was near a lynching, and if there had been one the act would have been deplored rather than blamed. Almost anywhere outside of Arizona mob law would have been invoked. With far less provocation, the northern states of Illinois and Ohio have surprised the country with the ferocity of their mobs. In the southern states a lynching would have been the logical and certain conse- quence.
 But this is a case which does not stand alone. Since law has been firmly established in Arizona, its citi- zens have never appealed to the court of Judge Lynch, though the provoca- tion has often been great.

If men with money want to spend it and their time that way, we have no objection, but we do not see how the cause of aeronautics is to be served by aerial races like that from Indianapolis Flights in balloons which are carried by the wind 'wher- ever it listeth" are not voyages of discovery. The best performance of those balloons was beaten a hundred years ago. Even the flight of the Pommern which is enormously alluded to as the record, was outdistanced more than fifty years ago by Pro lessor King in a voyage from St. Louis to northern New York.

VOTE FOR THE BRIDGE.

Tomorrow VIII be an eVenttul day for Phoenix, and for that matter for the whole Salt River valley There was never a day when the voters had it in their power to do So much good for themselves as they will have tomorrow in voting for the Center street bridge. We can think Of no good reason why very large majority of the voters should not elect the building of that bridge. We know of at least two reasons why all should vote for it and we know of one additional reason why every vote in Phoenix should be cast for it.
 A bridge at the foot of Center street will add within a year many thous- ands of dollars to the assessment roll of the county and that will make the burden of every taxpayer, large and small, just that much lighter A bridge at the foot of Center street will add to some extent to the value of every acre of land on the north as well as on the south side and a bridge there will make a greater Phoenix as well as a richer county We can conceive why our friends at Tempe would prefer a bridge at that point and no one can blame them for their earnest efforts to secure it. In fact, no one can blame any man for doing in a lawful manner that which he thinks will be the best for him
 In the nature of things, if there shall be a bridge at Center street, it will not be long before there will be one at Tempe. Every business man in Phoenix would favor a bridge there now and all of them regret that the propositions for the two bridges could not go before the voters peace ably, hand in hand, but unfortunately they did not
 But every right thinking citizen must blame any Phoenix voter or any north side voter for opposing the Center street bridge, for in doing so he is acting either under a mis- apprehension of his own interests or he is moved by spite or prejudice.
 Some, we understand, are intend ing to vote against the bridge because they believe that MT. Heard would be greatly benefited. That is an ad- mission of the fact that all others similarly situated would be greatly benefited and an ignoring of the fact that Phoenix will be benefited
 That a bridge across the Salt river is a necessity to the most rapid de- velopment of the community must be admitted. And it cannot be denied that there can be no better place for it than at a point which will bring 5O,OO0 acres of land into close rela- ton with the county seat.
 As to questions of construction and other details that has all been gone over fully by the publicity committees of the two bridge committees. There has been conflict of testimony and consequent confusion which, however, need not obscure the view of any level headed voter though not an expert, as to the main point, and that is the financial advantage to him, as a land owner and tax payer, of having a bridge across Salt river.
 Vote for the bridge and the engin- eers will find the way.

office the first of the year, is undergo

his trouble while it was yet in the In

A representative of the Independent

The various mountaineering con-
Germs kindly offered the use of their
autos, at any time they should be de-
sired. Each mayor was provided with
a special committeeman. and when he
desired all auto, all that he needed ITO
