mani
United States Senator Smith, of Geor-
gia, will direct the distribution of the
Federal patronage in Georgia under
President Woodrow Wilson.
Senator Smith early in the game saw
what was coming, and he got aboard
the Wilson band wagon.
It was q good old wagon, too, even
though it did squeak and creak and
groan nightly in the getaway.
At one time in Georgia it looked as
if Smith alone stood on the burning
deck--it takes some political adroitness
to stand on burning deck and ride a
band wagon simultaneously but the
senator was equal to it-whence all but
Smith had fed!
Now the senator is coming into his
own. Which seems POLITICALLY just. any
way.
Cutting Will Be Fine.
And a fine, large. fat and juicy pie it
is that Senator Smith will superintend
the cutting OF.
1t figures to be worth, in round mum =
bers, an even $245,000!
There are approximately $50 post
offices of presidential persuasion in
Georgia that are worth by way of sala-
ries about $l25,O0O.
The postmastership end of the pie,
therefore. is the most toothsome and
satisfying, of course.
Then there are couple Of United
States marshals. Nice little pickings
these-worth about $4,000 per annum.
Every little marshal has bunch OF
deputies all his own, too. Add another
81. 900 or $4,000 here.
one collector Of internal revenue has
to worry along as best he may with a
measley income Of $4,000. There are a
few willing patriots in Georgia, how
ever, ready to agree with Uncle Sam
that that will be all right.
And Atlanta Has Port.

NINE EXHIBIT
HIS DESIRE
j. c. Goodwin Visits District
TO Increase the Mineral
Display at Arizona
State Fair
DESIRES SPECIMENS

J. {. Goodwin manager of the min
eral department OF the Arizona state
fair was IN the city yesterday obtain
ing exhibits for the mineral building
and received much encouragement
Both of the big mining companies will
have ore exhibits from recent dis
coveries in addition to the permanent
exhibit maintained at Phoenix.
Mr.. Goodwin is particularly anxious
that the smaller mines shall be rep
resented in the mineral department
and he talked with Secretary Joe
Gray OF the Commercial club regard
ing the matter. in which the Com
mercial club secretary is also interest
ed.
I'VE want big exhibits from each
mine owner" said Mr.. Goodwin. In
the past the small mine owners have
sent only small ones, picking out good
pieces OF ore but We want to encour-
age larger exhibits as they make a
much better impression on the fair
visitor and also give better idea of
the value of the ore to the prospective
investor"
Mr. Goodwin has visited nearly all
of the big mining camps of the state
and has received much encourage
ment He believes that Cochise coun-
ty should have a mine commissioner
to look after the matter of having
his county represented in the mineral
building at the state fair. Your
county supervisors are empowered TO
name such a commissioner and any
expCnse incurred in gathering exhibits
falls on the state" he said.
Mr.. Goodwin Is a believer in the
honor system for couvicts and SAYS
that it has worked out splendidly at
his home town of Tempe. up there
we are not afraid of Them. we feel
sympathy Tor them and want TO do
what we can to help them make them
selves better men. Recently while
they were working on a bridge on the
state highway near Tempe the gang
was taken to a vaudeville show and
they enjoyed ii as much as kids en-
joy seeing a circus. The only way TO
make men better is through kindness
and not with a bludgeOn.'
Mr. Goodwin left for Fairbank yes
terday afternoon on his way back to
Phoenix. He is anxious to be in
Phoenix when the Big Bull Moose
comes through and win defer visiting
NogaIes until after that time.

When the newly-born babe Of Jose
Alvarado and wife died Thursday
night they took the little body out
under the caves of an Clubhouse and,
digging a shallow hole in the ground,
covered it with a thin blanket Of
earth.
This barbaric disposition OF the
body of a human being was reported
to OFFICER Walter Brooks and he re-
ported il TO county authorities and
they confirmed the report On the
advice of Deputy County Attorney
Alexander Murry the parents were
caused to have the body exhumed and
given to the county uRdertakers for
burial in the county cemetery.
The little body was covered by a
bare few inches OF dirt and as if
fearing that dogs would attempt to
dig the little form from the earth
the parents placed large rock on
the child's head.

so delicately adjusted that they will
weigh a seven-millionth part OF an

So delicate are these wonderful scales
that their balance is disturbed by the
alteration OF temperature caused by
CAe turning on Of an electric light az

ENTERTA|NS ROJAS
AND HIS OFFICERS
Rebel Gentlemanly and Pays
Well for Board that
is Furnished

Mrs. j.. S. Lodge and children and
her son. Tom Cook, and his family
arrived in the city yesterday, return
ing from the vicinity of Nacozari
whore Mr.. Lodge owns and operates
several valuable mining claims. Mr.
Lodge and several empioyes remained
behind to guard the property.
Mrs. Lodge has the distinction Of
having boarded General Rojas. one
OF the three prominent Mexican rebels
in the state of Sonora for three days
following the attack on NacOZari. Ro-
jas applied TO Mrs. Lodge for board
for himself and officers, for which
the general paid literally Mrs. Lodge
says that Rojas was courteous and
gentlemanly in his demeanor as a
'boarder" and assured her and other
Americans that they had nothing to
fear from members of his command.
The home of the Lodges. four miles
from Naeozari. was between. the bat
tie lines Of the fsderals and rebels
during the battle OF Nacozari. Bull
lets flew thick and fast over tent
house which is a portion of the home
and the occupants retreated INTO an
adobe for better protection.
The refugees came out of Nacozari
as far as the railroad had been repair
ed by train and the remained Of the
trip TO Douglas by wagon, for which
they paid $lOO gold. or more than
three dollars per mile.
Battle Not Premeditsted
The battle of NacoZari was not a
premeditated struggle for possession
Of the town but entirely and absolute
~ an accident, according to Tom
Cook. The rebels were camping
about four miles from the town." said
Cook -The federals heard that there
were rebels somewhere in the coun-
try and went out TO reconnoiter and
before they knew 1t they were no fur
Their apart than o. X. trail and Brew
cry gulch. There was one wild ex-
change of shots and then each band
scrambled for cover. Two men were
accidentally killed and a burro also
was killed by a wild bullet. When
the two bands had reached the hills
they resumed fighting but it was at
long range and no one was hurt.
The federals were just as much sur
prised as were the rebels"
After the fighting was over We col
| lected about eight thousand empty
shells. They were OF all kinds, from
.32's 10 .3O-3O's. At long range the
rebels were two miles from the fed
erals and the smaller calibeg bullets
would not carry that far"
Thus is another story Of heroic
struggle demolished. But for the cur
iosity of the federals the battle of
| Nacozari would never have occurred.
There was no curt demand of sur
render, no politely-couched note Of
refusal and regret but an unfortunate
accident such as is likely TO occur
when two bands are in the same vi
cinity or when two peas are in the
same pot II the two armies had had
Iblue-prints OF the country and had
staked out their separate territories
the accident need never have occur
