the eggs and poultry are said to be
stored, and officers of other large re-
migrating companies to appear before
the grand jury Friday when the prose-
cutor hopes to trace other large con-

to Its origin.
Agents from Swift & Co.'s cold stor-

Mobile Register Editorial

Mobile, February 2-(Special)-The Reg
ter, after reviewing the position of all
candidates for governor, will say edi-
torially tomorrow:
''If the two continue in the field there
must be a choice made between them, for
the reason that a split of the vote would
Jeopardize the hopes of those who wish
to see the results of the last campaign
driven through the state and clinched.
The issue means more than the instability
of prohibition; it means an entire change
in method of administration and absolute
divorce from one-man government.
'''Of the two, the Register regards Mr..
O'Neal as the most available upon whom
the vote should be concentrated. He has
much to recommend him, both by family
and personal attainments: is well In
formed and has strong political follow
ing in all parts of the state. He is easily
the most popular candidate in this part
and is in advance assured of Mobile 9
vote. When 1t is a question of winning
we must pick the strongest man. and we
hardly think there can be any question as
to the superior strength Of Mr. O'Neal.'

Last Monday he and another boy happened along by Hurley's slaughter house, and they saw a purse lying in a buggy seat. Johnson proposed talk ing it, but the other boy advised against it, and they went on. John son soon returned and took the purse, the property of George Martinez, who is employed at the slaughter house.
 A couple of days later his lavish expenditure of money attracted the finger of suspicion, and yesterday morning Deputy Sheriff Jeff Adams took him into custody The boy inn mediately told all he knew about the theft, and he knew all about it. He and the deputy sheriff and Justice Parker went into executive session over the affair, and in the course of the meeting the boy proved that he had an excellent memory and a head for statistics.
 Though he had not cent left of the $2O gold piece and the $10 piece he found in the pocketboOk, he de- scribed how every cent of it except one dollar was put into circulation. It went as follows: One gun, $11; one gun, s6; lone Ca sister,, s5; Francis, 90 cents; soda water, $50;

Dan Williams. former saloon keeeeper of Douglas, tomorrow will enter upon a twenty year term at the territorial penitentiary. He was sentenced on Thursday by Judge Doan at Tombstone, after a vigorous fight for liberty, and he was brought to Phoenix last night by Deputy Sheriff R. |. Swain of Tombstone Williams will be taken to Florence this morning
 The crime of which Williams was convicted was the shooting of Police man Russell of Douglas with intent to kill. So nearly was the intent carried out that Russell will be half a dead man for the rest of his life. He is permanently paralyzed.
 The shooting took place on the night of September ? of last year in the rear of the convicts saloon. The city council of Douglas passed an ordinance forbiding women to go through the alleys in the rear of saloons to drink. It was designed to break up the practice of women of the underworld as well as some oth- CTS who were supposed to live on the surface, of visiting the saloons in carriages and automobiles, while their male escorts or the bartenders brought out the drinks
 In the early part of the night, Po- liceman Russell saw an automobile containing several women drive to the rear of Williams saloon and he warned them that a repetition of the violation of the ordinance would result in their arrest. Williams ap- peared at the rear door at that time and cursed the officer, for his in reference, called him d vile name and threatened him for interference with his business. To this the off cer made no reply.
 Later in the night, the officer say, another automobile enter the alley and stop in the rear of the saloon. Again he went in and found the same women whom he had warned before. Williams was with them and again he attacked the officer. applying an offensive epithet to him. Then he descended from the automobile and standing behind one of the women fired at the officer The ball passed through his body and lodged in his spine. In spite of this shattering wound the officer plucldly fired in return and his bullet found lodgment in Williams left shoulder.
 Williams was arrested and brought to trial which resulted in his prompt conviction. Every avenue of escape has been since been tried by him in vain, so that he must serve his sentence.
 The officer unexpectedly recovered from his wound, but it is said that he will never recover from the wholly disabling effect of it.

watermelons, 30 cents; Eugene, % cents; ammunition, $1SO; candy. 1C cents; ice cream, 90 cents.
 The boy could not immediately com plete the catalogue, which as it stood totaled s26.SO. But having got his second wind, he proveeded as follows: Chewing gum, 70 cents; Paul Acosta 75 cents; bread and pies, 90 cents; watermelons, 20 cents. This made s2S.25. and again the youth was at a temporary standstill and regretted that he had not kept a cash book and at least some of the cash. Then he remembered that he had treated a lot of boys at Crosby's store and had paid 75 cents. To save his life he could not think of another cent that he had expended, but he had account ed for S29.
 Just what is to be done with him has not been determined. There was no place at the jail for him. The womans cell is occupied and it would not do to put him with the adult prisoners, and it was equally improper to lodge him in the jag cell; besides. that is in almost constant demand. Deputy Sheriff Adams took personal charge of the boy and had him home to dinner with him.
 The authorities are disposed to deal leniently with him on account of the impetus he gave to the confectionery, the bakery and the sporting goods business. He had succeeded in ere ating an optimistic sentiment in those lines of trade. The midsummer dull ness seemed to have come to an end.

piece of the palm. A very tedious
process, but the men all looked con-
tented and happy over it. One man

days, and that he received three dol
