Roswell MarshaI killed

Prohibition does not always insure
a peaceful community. For more
than year Roswell has been a pro
bihition town, the common council OF
the city having refused to license a
saloon, and passed ordinances pro-
hibiting the sale or bringing into the
town of liquors. There have been
several cases of bootlegging in the
town, by people who would bring
liquor in, and sell it on the quiet.
Several of these men have been
arrested and punished. Last week
Marshal Woofter arrested Jim Lynch
on this charge, and with two police
men took him to Lynch's home, to
hunt for the liquor. AS they got to
the house Lynch made break, got
loose, ran into his house and bar
ricaded his door The officers circled
the house and Lynch toUk a shot at
the marshal through the window with
a winchester, hitting him in the
stomach, from the effects of which
the marshrl died. Lynch was arrest
ed, his house searched and barrel
and a half of beer were found.

Judge Nave Hurt in a Runaway.

GLOBE, June 8.-Judge F. S. Nave
was painfully if not seriously injur
ed last night by his horse running
away, throwing him out of the wagon
and fracturing the drum of the right
ear. The injuries will confne the
Judge to his home for period OF
from week to ten days
The accident happened last nigh
about O'Clock when the judge had
taken L. L. Rapden to his home near
the hospital. AS the Judge turned
the horse around the back strap OF
the breeching broke, letting it fall to
the legs of the horse.
The animal being high spirited i'm
mediately became frightened and
bolted.
Judge Nave held the reigns AMI
attempted to stop the horse in his
wild flight. Seeing that it was an
impossibility to stop the auimal.and
that there was possibility of being
thrown into the gulch near the coru-
er of Ash and Hill streets the judge
turned the horse into telephone
pole. e a-
The wagon struck the pole with so
great force that the judge was
thrown a distance of several feet
from the wagon, striking on his right
side with terrific force.
The Judge received a badly scratch
ed head, face and shoulders.

pOLlTiCs WARMING UP
Henry AsRurstand Mike Burns Come to
Blows in Prescott.

Prescott, Ariz June = Tension
and i'll feeling in the democratic
party over the coming senatorial
contest was showmn yesterday after
noon wneu Henry F. Ashurst met
Mike g. Burns in the upper corridor
OF the Lawlor block where the at
tornev has his office.
Ashurst confronted Burns boldly
''Mike, hear that you are opposed
to my candidacy for the senatorship
aud declaring that am not in the
race.
Burns hesitated and finally ad-
mitted that such was the case.
Ashurst hared up hotly and retorted
in loud voice, "rhen, sir, can con-
ceive of no higher honor than to be
opposed by scoundrel like you"
Burns immediately shot out his
right and landed on the attorney
jaw. Ashurst then shot right and
left uppercuts to Burns jaw and
Burns stepped back and the hostil-
tiles ceased.
Ashurst, the younger man, and
very athletic, did not care to follow
mp his advantage. He could have
given Burns terrific beating, but
both combatants walked away.
Neither showed marks of the en-
counter when interviewed. Burns
refused to discuss the episode. Ash
urst was courteous and did not re-
sent inquiries, but smilinglY remark
ed that he preferred such informa-
tiOn to come from a nom combatant.
The fight has created high feeling
in political circles. For many
months Ashurst has been an outspok-
en- candidate for the Arizona senator
ship in the event of statehood. He
was chairman oe the convention that
elected delegates to the constitu-
tional convention. Up till this time
Burns has been taking an active part
in democratic politics, but was utter
ly ignored in the Yavapai county
convention.
La the last session of the legisla-
ture Burns was the Yavapai repre-
sentative to the council. At one
time he represented Mohave county
in the same body.

Roosevelt For Taft in 1912.

Taft, in his candidacy in 1919, will
have the unqualified endorsement of
Roosevelt. This is the best political
news which has come to the presi-
dent, but the source from which il
comes leaves no doubt of it's authen-
ITCHY.
Information came to the White
House some time ago that Roosevelt
under no circumstances will allow
his name to go befor the national
convention, but this was not madt
public until tonight. Whether Roose-
velt's approval of the Taft policies
will go so far as to take him to the
stump is problematical, but it is GER
tain that the force of his personality
will be with the president.
This information was brought to
Taft today at the jubilee of Cardinal
Gibbons, where both Taft and Roose-
velt were present, by mutual friends
high in the councils of the nation.
The meeting st Baltimore between
the two reminded one of the times
when Roosevelt was president, ana
Taft secretary of war. They con-
versed alone for fifteen minutes and
afterwards announced that they
talked "about Mrs. Taft's health. .
After the meeting at Gibbons jubilee
was over, Taft and Roosevelt held a
whispered consultation, both laughed
and they parted.
