JrJDGE RAIL AND THE MACHINE,
So far as our observation ex-
tends Judge Hall hasn't ''ducked"
an issue yet. and his candor in meet
ing the derogatory charges and AM
madyersions of his opponents may
well prove a potent factor in com
manding the respect, confidence ana
support of voters who love manliness
and fair play.
One of the shafts recently hurled
at the gubernatorial candidate OF the
Democratic Good Government League
is that he sought the support OF the
state machine when he was a candl-
date for judge-that he Appeared 70
Governor Sanders and the latter
nolitical friends for aid in the con-
test and was then quite willing to
accept the help of the ring he now
assails.
At Mansfield last week, before a
large audience, Judge Hall cited ana
answered this imputation with char
acteristic frankness and force. lie
said that during his campaign lot
fudge he had met Governor sahueis
- !. train one day and told NM
:. haa hundreds Of others, that
he would appreci@e any ,Ais I'D
could do for him; that he 'aa sou
the same thing to Henry bernSeen''
q personal friend and then leiio"
LAWYER at the Monroe bar, but no"
nracticing in Shreveport ana re-
garded for the past four years a. .
sort of "vice governor tor hoi' ~
Louisiana. Judge Hall said ne hdu
supported Sanders for governor Oh
the strength of the splendlo p1"'-
form the latter had announced ~
being able to foresee that the struo'
ture would be violated in letter
and spirit, but that he had never
heen Of or for the machine; had
never been and never would be
ringster: had always opposed the
ring and would always oppose 1t.
DR.. Aswell, Mr.. Michel and all the
other candidates for office feel them
selves free to solicit support from
all classes of Democratic voters with
out compromising their own views
aligntdents or principles. Is it rea.
sonable to question Judge Halls goo
faith because he exercises ike
privilege?

A LOUISIANA VIEW OF THE TARIFF
CONTROVERSY.

On the 7th instant the following
telegram from the Chicago Tribune
reached The Chief:
In your Judgment should President
Taft sign the wool bill, the farmers
free list bill and the cotton bill?
Do you believe the president should g
veto the bills and wait Tor exports ts
from the tariff coInmi ssion on which
scientific reduction can be based?
Please telegraph reply at our ex-
pense.
To these inquiries the subjoined
reply was wired:
The Donaldsonville Chief believes
the tariff should not be made the
football of partisan or factional pol
itics, but should be adjusted on a
scientific basis SO as to give the
government sufficient revenue, with
incidental protection to domestic in
dustries that are at disadvantage
in competition with like industries OF
foreign countries. Holding these
views. The Chief is decidedly of the
opinion that President Taft should
veto the wool bill, the farmers free
list so-called, and the cotton bill,
and await the report of the tariff
commission SO that action may be
taken advisedly and on well-digest-
ed basis that will save the industries
and trade of the country from de-
moralization and disasters
We advance the proposition, and
invite evidence in REPUTATION that
this view of the tariff question is
shared by a large majority of the in
telligent people Of the southern half
of Louisiana, at least, where the
sugar, rice, lumber, salt and sulphur
Industries are predominant, and that
these people will regard with pro-
found satisfaction such a course on
the part of President Taft as is
suggested in The Chiefs message.
Since reply was made to The
Tribune's telegram it has become APP
parent that the president is going to
stand by his oft-repeated declaration
that tariff revision should not be-
undertaken until the report of the
tariff commission has been laid be-
fore congress, and that he will ac-
cordingly interpose his veto to pre-
vent, if possible, the ill-digested
patchwork tariff legislation which
is sought to be rushed through at
the pending extra session.
It is promised that the tariff COM
missions findings will be submitted
to congress at the regular session
which is to convene in December,
and whatever may be the clamorings
OF politicians to the contrary, we
believe that the sober judgment OF
the people and the overwhelming
sentiment of the industrial, manufac-
turing and commercial interests OF
the country will sustain and applaud
the presidents contention that tariff
changes should be deferred until
that time.
That Governor Sanders has virtues
far be it from us to deny, but res
ignation doesn't seem to be one Of
them.

GRAND JURY MAKES
 REPORT OF FINDINGS

In the District Court of the Fourth
 Judicial District Court of the
 Territory of Arizona, in and for
 Coconino County.
 To the Hon. E. Nj. Doe, Judge of
 the above entitled Court, and to
 said Court:
 We, the grand jury, duly em- paneled and sworn and in attend ance at and for the September term, 1911. of the above entitled court, hereby beg to make and submit this, our final report, as follows:
 We have examined into twenty cases of felony and in one case of misdemeanor. We have returned indictments for felony to the num- Der of nine, and we have found one indictment for mis3emeanor, and we have found eight causes held to the grand jury not sufficient for in- dictment and have returned the same as ignored. We have exam ined in all 75 witnesses.
 We have examined the county offices and found them to be in good condition, with the following ex' captions:
 We have examined the county jail, and we find that proper segre- gation has not been made between male and female prisoners, and that there is lack of room and san- itary arrangement necessary to the housing of the number of prisoners held in custody preceding this term of court.
 Complaint being made before us of the justice of the peace office of Williams precinct, we recommend that the board of supervisors em- ploy an accountant to investigate the cases and audit the books of said office.
 We feel obligated to censure the peace officers of the city and county for laxity in enforcing the statutes against carrying concealed weapons
 We feel thankful to the various officers of the court for assistance to us during our labors, and we especially thank the judge of this court and the district attorney for their courtesy and ability in assist ing and directing us in our labors, and now feeling that our labors are completed. we herewith submit this our final report.
