oEmocRAIc COMMITTEE MEETING.

The democratic committee Of Co chise county will meet in Bisbee on saturday evening It is hoped that there will be a full attendance of the committee as besides the work of hring vacancies on the committee and the naming of officers. there is the more important duty Oi deciding the question as to how the ten dem ocratic candidates for delegate to the convention shall be chosen under the Arizona election law whick was in force prior to the election of 1908. This law provides for pri1cary eleS ton for the choosing of delegates to county convention. just as was done in 1908. and in 1906. This law pro vides that both parties must hold their primary election on the same day and in the same room in each
 
 precinct. the time and place of the primaries to be fixed by the board of supervisors: it further provides that the board of supervisors shall fix the day for holding the county conventions and that each party shall hold it's convention on the same day.
 Among the democrats Of Cochise county are to be found plenty of good timber to go on a ticket for delegate to the constitutional convention, and if harmony and good judgment shall feature the action of the democrats in choosing these men there will not be the slightest doubt about demo cratic success. This county is en- titled to ten delegates to be chosen by the county at large on September 12th according to the proclamation Of Governor Sloan. The democrats should as nearly as possible distribute these delegates equitabIy throughout the county, as worthy and popular democrats are not confined to any particular locality Each section of the county should put forth it's worJhiest and strongest men as can didates for delegates, and all the industries of the county should be represented on the ticket With such a ticket the republicans will have small opportunity to send any dele gates to the constitutional convention from Cochise county.

It is to be regretted that County Examiner Charles Purdon did not in- clude in his report something illum- mating the expenditure of s42,0O0 on the roads of Cochise county last year and the expenditure of more than half that amount during the first half of this year. Here is a matter in which the people of Cochise county are deeply interested. The people of this county are perfectly willing to bear the necessary expense Of keep ing the roads Tn good condition. but they desire that all extravigance in this matter be avoided and that for every dollar expended there shall be full value received.

'BEVERIDGE AND
 BAILEY COMING

PHOENIX, Arlz.. July S.-For the purpose of making preliminary ar engagements for the 1910 Arizona Ter ritorial Fair the Fair Commission re- cently met at Phoenix and after sev- eral days deliberarion, adopted re- solutions providing the purses to the amount of S30,00O for the racing program and premiums amounting to s5O,0O0 in the fifteen departments of the fair.
 Early in the year J. c. Adams who has been president of the Fair since it's beginning rendered his re- slgnauon and A. L. Moore of Phoenix was named by Governor Sloan as his successor. Subsequently to Mir. Adams action B. A. Packard resigned and E. R. Pirtle of Douglas was named as his successor. The formation of the new board for 1910 was completed at their first meeting by the election of High Campbell of Flagstaff the hold over member as president and Shir- ley Chrlsty of Phoenix as secretary. The dates of the fair were fixed for the 2nd. week in November, 7th to the 12th inclusive. While the big feature attraction has not yet been agreed upon. it has been decided to continue the racing purse known as the Arizona Copper Stske-S10. 900 and one day of the week will be known as Statehood Day on which occasion the fair will entertain as guests of honor Senator Beveridge. Senator Bailey. former Senator For aker and other men of note of the nation.
 Indications are that the 1910 Fair will be the most successful ever given in Arizona and certainly this will be true if the attendance is in keeping with the splendid entertainment pro vided by the commission.

Sloan of this territory is fin receipt of a dispatch from Boston asking him to cooperate in the movement against the fight pictures and Mayor christy of Phoenix has announced that he win submit an ordinance against these pictures to the city council. While there Is no likeli- hood of any disturbance in Arizona as a result of the appearance of these pictures. still it Is just as well for the Arizona cities to join the ranks of decency and prohibit their exhi- bition.

Editor Williams of the Tucson Citi- zen. has returned to Arizona from Washington city. where he had been for several weeks. During the last week Of his absence a report became current around Phoenix and was printed pretty well all over Arizona to the effect that he would succeed Hoval A. Smith as chairman of the territorial republican committee, should that gentleman resign from the position. which is expected soon Mir. Williams denies that there is any truth in the statement that he is to be the new chairman and com ing fresh from Sagamore Hill he uses the short and uglier work in making the denial. The report that Editor Williams was to become chair man of the republican territorial com rnittee was not generally believed through the territory. hence suci serenuous denial seems unnecessary and the short and uglier word out Q place.

The report of the county examiner attempts to take a fall out of the board of supervisors. but in our opin- ion the report missed the main chance" in directing censure at the board. To our mind one of the things for which the board deserves reprimand is the employment of a county examiner for thirteen straight months st s1O per day without ever requiring that reports be made Of the work done and the publication there of. as required by law.

AUDITOR ID BEGIN
 WORK AUGUST
cUTH6ERT WILL GO OVER CITY BOOKS FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS.

Arrangements have been made by Mir. Newman the special committee. man appointed at a recent meeting of the council with H. T. Cuthbert, chartered accountant of Douglas, to audit the accounts of the City of Bisbee for two years. He is to be- gin this work on August 1
 The auditing of the city books Is a result of a recent motion made to have the work done in order that the bondsmen of the former city clerk and city marshal might be re- ieYed from all responsibility. which cannot be done until every detail of their regime has been looked into and all accounts found to be aoso- lgtely correct
 The period which will bs gone over extends from June i. 1905. 10 June i. 1910. During that time Charles W. Hicks and George F. Gage were city clerks. and John Stevens city marshal. The auditing is considered a mere formality necessary after completion of the term of office of any city officer dealing with funds.
 Mir. Cuthbert, who has been re- tained for the work is one of the most competent accountants in the southwest and vii undoubtedly ren- der a full and satisfactory report. He is under orders. according to his contract to report direct to the council and not, as some previous auditors have done, to the former holders of the offices whose books were examined.

craze for going to fires are said to be

Harvey l.. Goodall against her hus-
band.
Goodall is one OF the original Is Fire
Fans. an organization of wealthy Chi
cagoans who have a penchant for fol-
lowing the clang of the fire bell.
Mrs. Goodall charges that her hus-
band has fitted up electric connections
with their home so hat when an alarm
sounds he may know of the fire, and
that he thinks more of his hobby than
he does of paying attention to her.
Goodall is vice president of five pub
fishing and news agencies.

INSURANCE FRAUD
SAID TO BE HUGE

Louisville, KY, Jan. 29.-"I believe
this investigation now under way will
unearth the biggest swindle in the in
surance line ever exposed west of New
York" said State Insurance Commits
sioner Bell today, as he ook up the
case of Walter E. Rider, a teamster,
who died January 4, and whose body
vas exhumed yesterday by the coro-
ner on the request of certain insurance
companies.
The death certificate indicated that
Rider died of intestinal trouble, but it
is reported that the autopsy, which
began today showed a large portion.
of the lung eaten away, supposedly by
tuberculosis.
Commissioner Bell has taken up the
Ease on the request of life insurance
companies in Indiana and Tennessee,
who are said to be large losers by
reason Of grave yard swindles.'
These companies, which, it is alleged,
have already paid $1,000 on policies
issued in the Rider case, are excluded
from business in this state, yet, 1t
is said, have carried on a large busi-
ness in Kentucky through an agency
at New Albany, Ind, across the river
from Louisville.
The scheme worked on the companies
is to a certain extent an old one, the
company issuing the policy to men vir-
tually in the shadow OF the grave after
having examined a man of athletic
build who was represented as the ap-
plicant

FIGHT FOR CHILDREN
RENDS THE TILLMANS

Columbia, s. c., Jan. 29.-When at
torneys for Mrs. b.. r. Tfllman, jr.,
made application before the supreme
court to be heard on a petition for a
writ of habeas corpus to secur possess
sion of her two children, Douschka and
Sarah. now held by United States Sen
ator Benjamin r. Tillman, Chief JUS
tice Jones halted proceedings by cit
ing a rule Of the court requiring such
cases to be presented in the circuit
court. On a plea that the lawyers were
not familiar with the rule he consented
to hear the arguments later.
The suit brought by the younger Mrs.
Tillman brought out the charge that
her husband is addicted to the excess
siye use of intoxicants and that he has
been guilty of cruel and inhuman treat
ment of her.
The trouble between b. r. Tillman,
jr., and his wife is said to have been
based on Mrs. Tillman's dislike of
Washington. Behind that is the fact
that she comes from one Of the old
South Carolina families. She is a near
relative Of the late Senator M Butler
of that state, whose place in the SEN
of victory when the old South Carolina
oligarchy was overthrow and pitch
fork Ben rode into power.
AS q descendant of the Dugas and the
Pickens families she inclined to sheer
at the near relatives and the political
friends of her fatherinlaw. This is be-
lieved to be the basis of the Tillman
family row.
Mrs. Tillman is the granddaughter
of f. w. Pickens, war governor of
South Carolina, and minister to Rus
STA. Her mother was born in st. Pc
tersburg, and the czarina of Russia
stood sponsor for the little girl who
later became the wife of DR.. Dugas. of
Augusta, Ga. The Pickenses were of
the so-called artistocracy and Ben Till
man claimed to be a man Of the people.
Romance, therefore. was attached to
the marriage of Lucy Dugas and Ben
jami1 Ryan Tillman, jr.
Mrs. Tillman, jr., is a granddaughter
of Lucy Holcomb Pickens, the Vir-
ginia belle, who so loved the cause of
the south that she sold her jewels and
with the proceeds equipped a troop
known as the Holcomb legion.

HOPE OF A UNIoN|ST
MAJORITY HAS FLED
Government Coalition Has Tri.
umphed in British Election
Struggle.

London, Jan. 29.-Seventeen returns
received this morning from the 25 left
over from yesterdays elections for par
lament, give the liberals 10, laoorites
2 and u~nionists 2. The two latter are
ties at 1880 this afternoon was:
Government Coalition-Liberals. 249;
Irish ~nationalists, &c; laborites, 40. To
tai, SOS.
Observation-Disclosures, 257.
The combined strength of the liberal,
labor and nationalist coalition has
reached 800, or more than half the
number of the house of A
unionist government therefore is out of
the question, and the only point still
undecided Is the exact strength of the
coalition majority. But II an independ-
ent liberal majority is equally out of
the question, only a short life car be
predicted for the incoming government,
and as a matter of fact. both the lib
eral and u~nionist parties are looking
away from the present struggle into
the not distant future when the con-
fiict at the polling booths viii be re-
newed.
The gains made by the unionists in
yesterdays elections were much smaller
than expected and should the same
TdllO prevail III tic COHlCSlS tOudy All
tomorrow there is a possibility that the
liberals alone may nave a slightly
larger membership In the new house of
commons than the unionists alone.
That the budget will be passed is now
certain, out after that all is chaos. The
speeches being made in the campaign
show that even the members Of the
cabinet are at skies and sevens regard
ing the ministerial program and moth
ing definite is likely to be obtained re-
garding 1t until after the cabinet
ellis, the first of which is TO be held
early mex week.
While parliament will assemble on
February Is, there seems to be little
likelihood that a formal state opening
by the king will take place before Feb
ruary %. as the swearing in of MEM
bers. the election OF the speaker of
the house and other perliminaries are
necessary before the royal inaugural
ceremonies are held.

brother of Lord Northcliffe, was re-

'W0MAN'S COUNTRY 9
TURNED INTO ICE PALACE

Waterbury, Conn. Jan. 2T.--To pre-,
vent the water pipes in her country
home from freezing while h was alb
sent during the holidays. Mrs. Eliza
beth Barber, of Harwinton, adopted
the plan of leaving the faucets turned
on and the water running or the sec
nd floor.
The drain pipe freezing, the running
water soon overlooked, covered both
floors n froZe until the house, when
she returned, resembled an ice palace.
Icicles frescoed the chandeliers and the
.baiustrade and stairs were ice coated.
The ice warped n forced oors open
until the water found its way outside.
With everything frozen inside, the
parlor sitting room made a great
indoor skating rink for the boys of the
neighborhood.
When Mrs. Barber returned the place
was practically ruined. 1t is consid-
cred a fine show place now but scarce
ly suitable in present condition for a
home.
