Found Dead on Tracks

Last Saturday the badly man. gled body of we'll dressed young man was picked up beside the tracks of the Santa Fe, about one mile west of Supai station. One arm and one leg was cut off. His pocketbook contained the name of Jean Harding Conway, but where he came from and how he met bis death remains mystery, the cor oner's inquest being unable to throw any light on the subject. He was neatly dressed and in his pocket was pair of gloves, neatly folded |, all of which goes to show that he was not beating his way, as he would have been wearing the gloves and his clothes, would have been soiied. As he had no money in his pockets the opinion has been ex- pressed that he migLt have been slugged and robbed and then the body placed on the track.

CHRISTMAS TREE AT
 THE M. E. CHURCH

Saturday evening, according to schedule, the Sunday school gave its annual Christmas tree and en- tertainment tefore an audience that filled the main room of the church to overaowing.
 The children were drilled in reel tation by Mrs. R. s. Ford and gave evidence of careful coaching. The different parts were well rendered. Miss Bigger deserves special men tion as having faithfully prepared the songs.
 The Christmas tree, thing of rare beauty, was procured by Messrs Enfred Johnson, Morse and Zelaha, and the decoration. the work of Mrs. Lebsch and Mrs. Duffield, assisted by many others, were the delight of all beholders.
 The treat, contributed by mem- beis of the school, consisted of an orange, a box of chocolates and a small and inexpensive present for each member of the .school. At the close there was free distribution to all little children whether pres ent in person or by proxy.
 
 An interesting feature of the evening was the graduating exer- else of the primary department, when seven little boys and girls passed an examination on the pri- mary course and were given diplo mas and Bibles. There were. pre- scented in a brief address by MT. Ocheltree. the pastor. Altogether it was a happy and successful oc casion.
 The Sunday school suffers heavy loss in the departure of Mir. and Mrs. Ford, but others have been found to take their places and the work of teaching the children will go on with unabated energy.

FATAL SHOOTING
 AFFRAY NEAR
 BELLEMONT, ARIZ.

Friday of last week serious shooting offray took place at the home of Thomas Brannigan, near Bellemont, in which James Mo- Coy was instantly killed and Luke O'Brien fatally wounded.
 The particulars of the affair which led up to the shooting are hard to learn. as many conflicting stories are going around, but from such information as we can gather the facts are about as follows: Jas.
 Mccoy was visiting at the home of the Brannigans Friday afternoon. There were present Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Brannigan and Mir. and
 Mrs. Luke O'Brien. During the afternoon a discussion arose be- tween Mccoy and O'Brien regard ing the difference between an Irish. man and an Orangeman. About this time son of McCoy's arrived and took part in the argument, Hot words possed between the men, scufie followed, when O'Brien pulled his revolver and shot Mccoy, killing him instantly.
 Young Mccoy then grabbed OBrien and succeeded in getting the revolver ;n his possession. He then shot and mortally wounded O'Brien. Here the statements vary greatly, but the above seem to be the generally accepted theory of it.
 O'Brien was hurried to the county hospital at Flagstaff, but only lived Ia short time. He was paralyzed from his head down, the bullet hav- ing entered his back, ranging up- ward and was found lodged under his chin.
 Young Mccoy was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Pulliam and lodged in jail.
 A coroner's jury was impaneled by Judge Harrington at Flagstaff, but we were unable to learn the particulars, as "the wires are not working we'll"
 A later report from Flagstaff states that at the O'Brien inquest Thursday evening the jury recom- mended that young Mccoy be bound over to await the action of the grand jury.

lican government as advocated and taught by Abraham Lincoln. It is in strict accord with tue first pre- amble drafted by Lincoln and Trumbull at the first meeting called for the consideration of platform for a new party, now known as the Republican party It is in strict accord with every plank and every principle advo cated and adopted by the founders of the Republican party when that grand party was born.
 I defy any man to find one sin gle pregnant issue of this day that is not fully covered by the original Republican platform as drafted by Lincoln, Trumbull and other great and good men when they created and adopted the original Republi- can platform and gave to the world the Republican party. That plat form was real democracy or real republicanism. as government is now being sought by the intelli gent and leading majority of the people of this day.
 Any analyst considering the vote n Arizona can come within hun
 red or two of he exact number of vnters in A z ma who stand for reactionar yism, progressiveism or socialism. The great, intelligent and independent vote of Arizona is neither reactionary nor socialis- tic. Progressive republication or progressive democracy is mis- homer; in fact, naueeous. The truth is, the people of Arizona want real progression. which is an open, clean and fearless administration of government-a government with special favors to none, and an equal chance for all. That is tne govern ment sought for, fought for, taught and preached by Abraham Lln- coin. and though he was called demagogue in his day, and retired into oblivion three different times by the reactionary element among his own people, yet the God of all made him triumph over all his enemies and leave to the world his doctrines and beliefs as embodied in the Republican platform, and it is so full and complete, and his idea of self government so thor and proven by the Republican platform, that that platform at this day needs neither line taken from, nor word added to it to give the people of this nation that for which they are striving and for which they will have before they are through. and in no politi- cal subdivision of the United States as quickly as in Arizona.
