Iramns and Cuff Muzzlers.

The most curious article in the
tramp's outfit bears an appropriately
odd name the cuff mueller" 1t con
ssts of the leg OF an old stocking cut
up into short lengths and worn over
the wrist like a thick mitten, aud its
object is TO increase the circumference
of the wrist to such an extent that a
constable cannot easily slip handcuff
over it.
Indeed, a pair of cuff muzzlers"-
which are worn by none save veteran
roadsters make it very difficult for a
constable alone and unaided to hand

A Woman's Letter,

Women, it Is generally admitted,
write much better letters than men.
NJ Marcel Provost discovered the
reason for this superiority. "The oh
yious meaning Is never the one we
should read into a woman's letter
There Is always a yelled meaning
Woman makes use of a letter just as
she employs q glance or smile, in
way that is carefully thought out and
with an eye to effect And, after all,
does a woman's hat serve to cover her
heady Does a woman's parasol keep
off the sun? Why, then, should a wo-
mans letter serve to convey her real
thoughts to the person addressed, just
like the letters Of some honest grocer,
who writes, L send you-1ive pounds Of
coffee" because he really does send
you five pounds of coffee f'-London

MANY ARIZONA MINERS
 AIDING HovAL SMITH

GLOBE, Ariz., Nov. 23.-Assistanee for Hoval A. Smith, old-time miner, in his candidacy for the United States senate, is coming to the Silver Belt in the form of small eontribu- tions, ranging in size from one to five dollars. This money is being sent by old-time friends of MT. Smith -miners-the men who really pound the drill-with the request that it be used to aid their old-time companion. They realize he knows all about the mining industry and his word has always been as good as his bond. And these contributions prove how his former fellow workmen feel re- garding the men who worked with them shoulder to shoulder in the days before he became a winner.

PROGRESSIVE SPEAKERS
 MAKE HIT IN TUCSON

Special to the Journal-Miner).
 TUCSON, Ariz., Nov. 23.-Taking up the republican platform pledge by pledge four of the republican state candidates addressed one of the larg- est meetings of the campaign and scored a hit that was not even sur passed by the senatorial candidates. Each speaker declined to engage in campaign of abuse and told what the people might expect of him if he was elected.
 Geo. D. Christy made a hit with the outline of his plan for a public lands commission and a plea for the public schools. The speakers were Christy, Sturges and Fisk, and the meeting was closed by Fred Cleaveland, in a comparison of the democratic plat forms meaningless pledge with re- spect to labor with the specific pledge of the republican platform. Cleave- land was cheered to the echo by the hundreds of working men present. In closing his speech Cleaveland aroused a tremendous applause by his appeal to Arizonans of every section to work shoulder to shoulder for the development of the new state and put an end to prejudice and sectional feeling. He said:
 "We must stand shoulder to shoul- der for the up building of Arizona and if you elect the republican ticket we shall administer the states af- fairs in the interest of every section of Arizona and ask the cooperation of every loyal Arizonan whatever his politics and from whatever county he halls"
 The speakers will address the pro- gressive republicans of Santa Cruz county tomorrow night, leaving for Nogales- tomorrow morning.

Henry F. Ashurst. I leave for your consideration as to what position the Honorable gentleman stands in be- fore this community and if he can, let him explain his extraordinary conduct; why he did endorse the con duet of Sloan as judge? Henry F. Ashurst was among others who said that Judge Sloan's conduct had been at all times that of absolute fairness and probity. He did not desire any recall of judges at that time. He knew the record of Sloan at that time as well as he does tonight or did last Saturday night. When did he change his ideas, or when did he become the rampant and outspoken advocate of the recall of judges. Not until he became a senatorial aspirant and believed it would be popular to stand in favor of the recall of judges. Was he sincere when he told you on Saturday night that Judge Sloan was a disgrace to civilization by reason of his decision or was he honest and candid and sincere when he adopted and passed those resolutions, and upon the call of the ayes and naes of that Bar association, the record of which I have here tonight, MT. Henry F. Ashurst voted aye. Just remem- Der that when you are considering whether that is the character of man or ealiber of man who is to be elected to the great dignity of senator of the United States.
 FNow I have not time tonight to go into one or two other matters that could be discussed as the hour is late. But I promise you now that on another occasion and before this campaign is through if l am granted the opportunity, I will refer to two other incidents in the career of MT. Henry F. Ashurst which it will be my pleasure to tell you about from the record.
 "NOw l wish to thank you for your attention, and bid you good night. "

 of the United States had been ap- pointed to the office of Governor of Arizona. He therefore was not a judge in June, and on the 11th day of June, two years ago, there was a meeting of the Bar Association of Northern Arizona, and at that meet ing there were presented resolutions by a committee chosen by the Bar association from lawyers, cOmmenda- tory to Richard E. Sloan. A member of that committee was Henry F. Ashurst, whose name is signed to that report, and also the resolutions themselves in his own handwriting; and what did he say of a judge of this district, a man who he says, by his conduct in labor eases while he was on the bench of this territory and this county was a disgrace to civilization. At that time MT. As hurst had not developed any sena- toriaI aspirations apparently, and at that time he saw fit, with other members of that committee, to use this language in reference to Richard F. Sloan. (Mr. Morrison here read the original report and the resolu- tions as published yesterday in the Journal Miner).

Mir. Jones is candidate for superin- tendent of public instruction. He is at present assistant superintendent of schools in Phoenix. He proposed that the system of changing the text books every four years now in vogue should be abolished and that the school books should be furnished free by the state. Neither of the other parties have made any mention of this important feature but the repub- lican platform pledges state aid for everything required in the public schools.
 He paid a tribute to the Prescott schools, their efficient teachers and their victorious football team. MT. Jones' years of pedagogic work highly recommends him for the office he seeks.

SO hard that Hart is still dieting on soups.
Morris was born in Kentucky August :,
1886, and until 1904 he worked on his
fathers farm. He then went to Sapulpa
and secured a position as helper in a
roundhouse. He was conscientious
worker. and in a few months he was
advanced to a fireman on. yard engine.
Later he was promoted to engineer.
He first displayed signs of being a
fighter one day in Okmulgee. when a
burly negro endeavored to give him an
argument. Morris punched the everlast-
ing daylight out of the negro. who was
the village bearcat. This rough-and-
tumble contest made hero out of Nor
ris all along the road. and finally he was
induced to try a hand at the fighting
game for financial reasons.
So the night that he learned Johnson
had whipped Jeffries Morris asked for
a years leave of absence without losing
his standing in the line of promotion by
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers.
His first opponent in the ring was
Tim Hurley. Timothy ran into a right
hook in the third round and was knocked
cold. Ed Anderson followed. and. like
Hurley, look the big sleep in the third
round. Battling Britt. d massive giant,
lasted less than half round. Jim Har-
per managed by stalling and clinching
to go two and half rounds, and then
Marvin Hart was secured to lower the
colors Of the youngster. He never had a
chance, although he lasted longer than
any Of the others-three rounds. And
the other night Morris put his sixth and
last opponent, Spike Kennedy, away in
the second round.
Morris has advantages over every other
heavyweight in the world. He is q feet
inches tall, has reach of 81 inches. and
when in condition tips the beam at 235
pounds. When he first started fighting
he weighed 300 pounds. but by hard train
ing has taken off sixty-fiye pounds He
has a wonderful chest, il measuring 10
inches. He believes he gained his won
derful physique because he never INDUCED
in liquor or tobacco, and has always
taken the best OF care of his health. He

dent as one can be. He has good head.
