ed. so far as the released convict is concerned. We have no doubt that there is some process of law by which he can be returned to the peniten- tiary. But the public s no longer particularly interested in the prisoner It's chief interest is in seeing that the author of the fraud is swiftly and severely punished If the attorney of Sisson did impose upon the court with a false record. the place for that attorney is behind the bars of the territorial prison.
 It is the duty of Attorney General Wright to clear up the mystery promptly and to bring to justice every person who willingly took part in this extraordinary crime against the dignity of the court and the dig nifty of the laws of Arizona.

The Last Day.

This is the last day for registra- tion for the sewer bond election.
 Of all the projects which have been suggested for the welfare and pros- perity of Phoenix since the first set tiers constructed their adobe huts, the proposal to vote bonds for a modern sewer system is the most certain to yield satisfactory results if carried out On the other hand, the rejection of no other proposition ever was so fraught with certain damage to the town.
 If all the enemies the town could possibly have were to put their heads together to concoct a scheme to re- tard its growth they could not pos sibly hit upon a more practical method of achieving their ends than the defeat of the yewer project

REGISTER TODAY FOR
 SEWER BOND ELECTION
The Books Close at Midnight
 Tonight.

This is the last day for the registra- tion of voters for the sewer bond cleo ton to be held June IS. One may register any time between now and 12 o'clock tonight, but the earlier the bet ter for this is to be a busy day Up to 5:3O last night 434 names had been registered. or about one-fourth of the legitimate bond voting population of the city.
 Yesterday afternoon Sid Henry and few others got out their automobiles and rounded up quite a number. but it was hardly a start on what will have to be done today if anything like a proper showing is made. IL is expect ed there will be several automobiles busy today, and there will be work enough for all that can be secured for the service
 It is urged that the individual voter today take the matter of his own registration up with himself with out waiting for an automobile. But if an auto does call the voter owes it to himself and the city to get in and ride direct 10 the city hall and record his name. It makes no difference what ones opinion is concerning the various plans of building a sewer The citizen should be concerned to vote one way or another. for or against the bonds. and if he has not yet made up his mind he should register anyway. Before election day he may be very anxious to vote one way or the other

The FiQht and the Public,

It is useless to deny that a great States are intensely interested in the proposed championship fight between Jim Jeffries and Jack Johnson. Those two great moral forces of the coun- try, the pulpit and the press, may denounce prize fighting all they please, but they cannot lessen the public interest in such a contest as the Jeffries- Johnson fight is prom ised to be The Republican is pub lished in a Christian community It is read every day by thousands of good, law-abiding citizens, who. if the question were put to them indi- vidually as to whether they approve prize fighting, would reply in the negative. But if this championship fight takes place as scheduled, at least go per cent of these readers these excellent citizens-will eagerly read, before they read any other news, the dispatches giving an ac- count of the fight.
 We are inclined to think, there fore, that the greatest menace to the future of the fighting game" is not the pulpit or the press. but the fight CTS and their promoters If it shall develop, as we hope it will. that the Jeffries-Johnson fight is frame up" and a fake, that fact will do more to destroy interest in prize fighting than all the preachments against it that can be spoken or writ ten Unfortunately, it promises to be a contest "on the level" and con sequently a fight that will stir the savage blood that runs in the veins of nearly every man-and not few women.

Protecting Our Natural Wonders

Upon recommendation of the secre-
 tary of the interior. the president has issued a proclamation establishing a federal reservation of ten acres sur rounding the Rainbow bridge. in Navajo county. which is one of na- lures many wonders in our territory. This reservation is made under an act of congress which authorizes the president to protect such wonders by making them national monuments" |" It would be extremely difficult for anybody to injure the wonderful Rainbow bridge. but injury could be made possible. and it is therefore wise to protect it under federal law.
 But the national monument prop Osition can be carried to extremes For example. if all the people in Ari- zona were to devote all the time dur ing the remainder of their lives to an effort to injure the Grand Canyon of Arizona or to deface it so as to mar its beauty. they could not make any more headway on the job than so many ants. Yet President Roose- welt, in his speech near the canyon but before he had looked at it-said in substance to the great crowd: "I admonish you people Eever to destroy this great wonder!" He was excusable in such an absurd utterance, because nobody can form a conception of the magnitude of that chasm until he has seen it. Mir. Roosevelt afterward issued a proclamation declaring the canyon national monument. which was an utterly unnecessary proceed ing. so far as the need of protect ing" the canyon from vandals was concerned.

SAYS BOY SET FIRE
 TO PIONEER STABLES
Two Witnesses Claim Recent Confa
 grafton Was Work of lncendisry.

Since the disastrous fire last Sun day night in which the stables of the Pioneer Transfer company were de stroyed and three horses were ere mated. there has been no small amount of conjecture as to just how the blaze originated. Yesterday some light was thrown upon the situation by the ap- pearance at the police station of John Thomas, q Chinaman, who lives in the rear of the Chinese chapel just across the street from the site of the stables.
 John has lived in Phoenix for thirty years and his word would be taken by anybody who knows him. Accord ing of his story, just a minute or two before the fire was discovered, he glanced across the street from his doorstep where he was seated flaming himself, and noticed a boy apparently about twelve or thirteen years of age approach the stables stealthily. He says he saw the boy crumple up some paper, apply a match and toss the brand into the corner of the stables. Instantly there was a burst of flame and soon the building was involved.
 John was the first to raise the cry of fire and he claims that when he shouted the boy darted westward through an alley towards Central ave nue. Miss Meade. sister-in- law of Mrs. Deal, whose house was threaten ed. says she saw a small boy running through the alley just about the time she heard the cry of fire The police have a very imperfect description of the boy. and therefore but little to work upon at this time.

An EstraordinarY Case.
Register today!


 A prisoner named Sisson was in the territorial prison of Arizona. for murder committed in Graham county. Originally sentenced to life imprison- ment, he had served some six or seven years. when, a few months ago, his sentence was commuted to ten years by the governor. Under the communications provided by law for good behavior, his shortened sen tence would have expired in another year or such a matter. Last week he was released from the prison under a writ of habeas corpus. The case was brought before Chief Justice Kent, who referred the papers to the at torney general of the territory The papers showed that the prisoner vhad never been legally arraigned-that in the purported arraignment at the be- ginning of the trial at which he was convicted he was not required to en- ter a plea as to whether he was guilty or not guilty-and on the case as made up before him in the habeas corpus proceedings Judge Kent prop erly released the, prisoner from the penitentiary. A day or two later. the governors secretary. Mir. Cleaveland, having examined papers in the execu- tive office that had been filed in con- nection with Sisson's application for a pardon. advised Judge Kent that the papers at the governors office seemed to show that Sisson had in fact formally made a plea of not guilty on his arraigrment.
 It appears now that the prisoner was released on a fabricated record A dispatch from the clerk ef the dis trict court of Graham county to The Republican. which we printed on the 2nd instant, reads:
 My record shows that the copy of the Sisson record filed in the supreme court is verbatim, the same as the original. except that there are omit ted these words: The defendant re- piled, 'T plead not guilty The court and myself have been imposed upon by licensed attorney. These facts l have related to Attorney Gen. eraI Wright. and he has my permis- sion to make them public if he de- sires.''
 It seems to us that the widest pos sible publicity should be given to the facts of this strange case, in order that the people of Arizona may know how it was that the attorney general and one of our most carerul judges were imposed upon, and hoy it was that prisoner was released from the peni- tentiary by fraudulent means It is a matter in which all good citizens are interested.
 Judge Kent and the attorney gen. eral are Investigating the case. of course. and as soon as all the facts are ascertained the people want to know them. It is not clear from the telegram from the clerk of the Graham court to The Republican what method was pursued in perpe- trating the fraud. Whether the clerk unwittingly certified to an incorrect record, through placing too much trust in the attorney. or whether the attorney committed a forgery after the certified paper was delivered to him. does not yet appear At all events. if the court clerks statement1 to this paper is correct. the chief law officers of the territory were imposed upon by a fabricated record.
 Of course the error can be correct

Tn. Consistency of tn. Aoitstor.

In Portland Oregon, on Memorial day. socialistic speakers in addressing their sympathizers at a meeting in the public square, reviled the old soldiers of the Grand Army of the Republic. The speakers condemned the practice of decorating the graves of soldiers, sneered at the president of the United States, and jeered at the flag of the American republic. The police put a stop to the demon stration'' and announced that here after the socialists would not be per mitted to block the sidewalks and streets with their meetings. There upon the agitators protested They asserted that they were American citizens and proposed to insist upon the American right of free speech under American law.
 Curious. isn't it. how quickly these promoters of anarchy can switch around? At one moment they are reviling all the institutions of the land which represent law and order; they blasphemously deride the things that all loyal American citizens hold sacred; they jeer at the law. and jeer at the flag, which is our symbol of law and order. Yet the moment their right" to make public nui- sance of themselves Is questioned they appeal to this same despised law for protection.

Driver Who Risked Life for Glory of His Car Modest ly Receives Prize and and Insists on Mechanician Receiving Credit.

Amid the enthusiastic cheering of drivers who lost and of a hundred other admirers of his nerve and skill, Harvey Herrick, who drove the Kis- sel-Kar to victory in the third Los Angeles Phoenix road race, was pre- sented with the Republican silver cup at the third annual banquet of the Maricopa County Automobile club. held last evening in K. of P. hall, The presentation was made by Dr. G.

 With these words Leon T.

Shettler is a loser, yet he was ten dered almost as great an ovation as Herrick.

Mrs. Bragg
 Is Real Strong
In a Personal Letter, She Tells How Women May Increase Strength
 and Endurance.

Indianapolis, Ind-'I feel so much better than I ever did in my life, ]" writes Mrs. Charles Bragg, 1517 Cornell Avenue 'I have been real strong since I began to use Cardui. Tongue cannot tell how much Cardui has done for me. l can do a full days work now without getting tired and having to stop and lay down every few minutes. It seems to me that there is nothing equal to Cardui as tonic and strengthening medicine"
 Women who do hard work of any kind, whether in stores, factories, or at home, often lose strength and energy, and soon feel, and look, prematurely old.
 To keep young. when you begin to feel tired and unable to do your work. you should try a good strengthening tonic. You will find in Cardui friend in need.
 Fifty years of success, and thou sands of letters like the above from Mrs Bragg, surely prove that the best remedy in the world for women is Car dui, the woman's tonic
 All druggists sell and recommend Cardui.
