LANBASTS THE PROTECTIVE
 HIGK TARIFF.
Is Cordially Received by the Peo- pie of Clifton Who Applaud
 His Remarks.

Hon. Henry F. Asnurst, dtm Jcratic candidate for the nomiDation tor United States Senator, arrived in Clifton unannounced last Saturday evening, coming here from Glo be On account of no pre.io aunounc e. ment that he would speak in Clifton on Saturday evening oniy a small crowd assemhl d ol Mia street to hear the 2 fled orator of Coconino county, who spoke for an hour and half n d pleasing manner to his aud- fence, and judging from the remarks passed, made a favorable impression on all who heard him.
 MT. Ashurst was introduced by Hon. Ben M. Crawl ord and his first re- marks was d declaration in favor of the Arizona Constitution and an en- dorsement of every provision in that ste document
 MT. A>hurst stated most emphat- I call of the judiciary. Said he: believe in the recall of all public servants and l could never under stand why the judge, who is subjected to more temptations than any other officer, should be excluded from the operation or the recall.
 ''I believe in the recall of all off , cers and that none should be ex- empted. believe the people should vote against the judiciary recall in order to obtain statehood md just so soon as that boon is obtained the iu- dietary recall should be restored to the constitution am in favor of the democratic party in every county | of the new state pledging their can didates for the-legislature to refer to the people at the earliest possible moment Consti tn tional amendment for the restoration of the judiciary recall to the constitution.
 l. MT. Ashurst dwelt at length on the I principles of the democratic party in rela tion to the great tariff question. ! He denounced the Payne-Aldrich tar if bill and pledged his support in the l Senate, if elected, to the reduction of the tariff on all trust made articles and the necessaries of life.
 Mir. Ashurst said that there are seven democratic candidates for the nomination for the United States Senate and that they are all good men, nd that he cannot and will not say thing detrimental to any of them. That he was making the race for the senatorsnip on his merits, and on his merits alone.
 He talked of his early life on COW ranch in COconino county, and told how he had carried hod in order to earn d livelihood in Williams and Flagstaff: how he had studied law and at the age of twenty-one was elected to represent his county in the Arizona legislature and again re- elected the next term, and at the age of twenty-three was chosen by the house of representatives of the legis- lature as the speaker of that body.
 MT. Ashurst said that he is conti- dent that the people will elect him to the senate, but if they do not, the day after the election he will start his campaign again.

The subject of this sketch. Henry F. Ashprst, is a type of young men found in great abundance throue bout the west. who are making themselves useful citizens.
 MT. Ashurst was born in the state he was brought by his parents to Ari- .zoIla. where he thas continuously re- ,, sided His father, a native of Ken tHckyss pioneer and prospectOr was accidentally Killed by an explosion in Grand CanS. many years ago. His mother. native of Missouri: heroically endured the hardships in- client to life on the AriZona fruntier
 Henry left the Flapstatf public school at the age of 15 to become a cowboy, and during the next four years he rode the range" in Coco nino. Navajo and A pache counties. At the age of l9 he was appointed a deputy by Sheriff .'Sandy" Don hue of Coconino county, which position he credit, bIy filled. After leaving the sheriff office he wnrked as hod- carrier and later a. a iumberjack in the mills of the A rizona Lumb Der com pany ot Flagstaff. Subsequently he removed to Williams and obtained employment as a clerk in the stoi e of Mr. NJ. Salz nan. In 1895 he com menced the study of law which he pursued with close application. In 1896 he was elected to the legislature from CocOniuO county. was reelected in 1898 and in 1899 was elected as Speaker of the House, being the youngest man ever chosen to fill such a pOsiti on.
 In 1899 he was licensed by the Su- preme Court of \ riZona to practice law, the duties of which profession he has performed with notable suc- cess and with untiring devotion to his clients. In I9)2 he was elected to the Territorial Council. In 1908, desiring to secnre every possible advantage for his professional avOcatio ion he en- tered the law department of the Uni versity of Michigan, and, as a special student, took course of lectures in Law and Political Economy
 In March 1904 he was married to Mrs. Elizbeth l.. Reuoe of Flagstaff, and happy marriage indeed was this for even in bitter partisan strife, his political opponents always suspend criticisms long enough to take op- portunity to praise and approve the virtue and rectitude of the domes tie life of Henry Ashurst.
 He was elected District Attorney of CoeoninO county in 1904 and was re- elected in 1906. During his two terms as Distric; Attorney his efforts were those of jealous guardian of the public interests. While in office dis honesty and extravaganza in public business crumbled before his deter mined honesty and aggressive cour age. In the adminisu atiOn of the duties of his office as a public prose- culOr. justice went hand in hand with charity, towards the poor and unfor tunate.

The Japanese have an interesting
legion in connection with the origin
of the chrysantheum. In a garden
bathed in the soft moonlight a young
girl plucked a flower and commenced
to strip the petals to see If her fiance
loved her truly. OF a sudden a little
god appeared before her and assured
her that her fance loved her passion
ately. Your husband will live, he add.
ed as many years as the flower. which
l will let you choose, has petals. With
these words he disappeared. The
young girl fastened to search the gar.
den for a flower which should have an
abundance of petals. but each n ap-
peared to promise but a brief future
for her beloved.
At length she picked a Persian car

pin. taken from, her hair. she separ-

flower. so Is to increase the number
Of folios and the number of years

Martin Richie had not voted when he
