SHERIFF MILHAULT HAS A JOB.
1t Is to Empty $4,000 Bottles of
Beer One AT a Time.


Sheriff John Milhault of Wichita,
Kan, has his job cut out for him.
He is to remove the caps and pour
out the contents of $4,000 bottles of
beer seized by the state authorities
and which by agreement between the
shippers and the courts are to be
emptied and the bottles and cases
returned. Each bottle is to be emp
tied separately by the sheriff. the
account pathetically concludes. Yet
we have been told the days of legal
lied human torture are over. If
Sheriff John was allowed to call in
the assistance of a few congenial
friends the task might not prove so
irksome. But if he should be over
come by temptation he could always
say it was the escaping gases.

The petition that was filed with
the Ordinary requesting that the re-
peal of the tax be submitted to the
voters of the county contained about
400 names, or twice as many as

MT. Thomas E. Stanton, who made a trip to Flagstaff last week to bring out a hog for the school, suffered the loss of the animal while enroute home. The hog broke from the crate and got away and before 1t could be located some Navajo had shot and killed it, supposedly thinking it to be a wild animal.
 It is understood, though not officially announced, that the boarding school at Tuba and the day school at Moen- -Copi will open about the sixteenth of the month. MT. William Fl. Pfeifer, teacher of the day school, recently sent in his resignation from Missouri where he has been spending his vacation, and it is not yet known who his successor will be.

The most poisonous reptile in this world is the character killer. The great evil of neighborhood is islander; a tongue red with the killing of character is as deserv- ing of punishment as the hand red with the blood of a fellow man, and while the books of earthly justice may not so record them the records by which we must all be judged in the here- after will know no difference.

The tariff question has caused the downfall of the democracy from time immemorial and yet they persist in making it a party issue. Well can the sheep and cattlemen remember what hap pened during Cleveland's admin istration. They can remember when they had to send money back east to pay the balance due on freight for wool-cattle were not worth the price of hides. Why, why should they go back to the old, old story and try it all over again. The sensible busi- ness man is not so thoroughly saturated with political prejudice that he will jeopardize his own welfare and vote to take another chance. when he knows he is safe as conditions stand.

HELP SOAK THE THIEVES

The Coconino Sun is advertising the names of fake advertisers, and is sure hitting the right spot. Other Arizona newspapers should do likewise and put these fraudu- lent concerns out of business.

The Sunset magazine says that Byron L. Graves of Los Angeles drove an automobile down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back again. Also that six months ago he tried to drive team down but failed, but this time he took along 25 pounds of dynamite and built road. All of which goes to show that this man Graves could build bridge across this little old ditch any where in a few hours, if he got busy.

The state of Sonota, Mexico, has law compelling all citizens to vote or be fined. There is much more wisdom about a law of that character than there is in many of the high sounding so called progressive" crazes that find their way into our statute books. The governed should be compelled to take an interest in governing themselves, then our political troubles would be done away with.

MINERS LIEN LAW

The Mohave County Miner gives the following reasons why the miners lien law should be voted against at the election in Novem- Der, and it is a good strong argu- ment:
 But the one measure that in- terests the people more than any of the others, looking at it from a public welfare standpoint, is that of the mine lien law. This meas ure was passed through the sem ate by the narrow margin of one vote, the vote standing ten to nine. It was fathered by a Co., chise county man, but had behind it the undivided support of the alfalfa growers of the state. The measure proposes to make every mine operated under lease and bond responsible for all work done thereon and for all supplies and materials furnished. It sim ply put out of all possibility the leasing of mine under any terms and would materially curtail work in all the mining counties of the state. Miners working on any mine under the tribute system who fail to pay their store bills would involve the mine owner Tn the payment by fixing lien on the property. Under no condition would mine owner be safe from the fixing of liens should he bond or lease his property. It is one of the most drastic measures ever passed, and would result in great harm were it allowed to remain on the statute books. It is to be hoped that every man who has the welfare of the state at hear will vote against the measure Had the same class of Legislation been applied to the farmer what howl would have gone up. Le a farmer lease his land to ten ant, who in turn would employ men to SOW and harvest the land: and then slip out without paying them, and then have the men fi' a lien on the lands for their pay wouldn't the farmer howl. Blu that is just what these farmer fel lows want the mine owner to say is good and that he likes it. Int people should scrutinize closely this measure and realize fully it. import. If they believe that fixins lien on a mine is the prope way to develop the country, le them vote for this measure. Blu on the other hand, if they believ, that others should take a chanc, with the mine owner, let then vote this lawof the statute books.

INF EACHMENT Of
JUDGE DEMANDED
Berger Tells Congress Seattle
JuriSt, Hantord, Is Corrupt
and a Drunkard.

WASHINGTON. June THE i'm
parchment of Federal Judge Cornelius
H. Hanford, Of Seattle. Wash. on the
grounds Of "habitual drunkenness, cor
ruption and decisions lagrantly in vio-
lation of law" formally was demanded
of the house today by Representative
Berger, the Socialist member from Wis
consin. Rising to a question Of per-
sonal privilege, the representative de-
livered a scathing Indictment of the
jurist, reciting among his charges the
case wherein he revoked the natural
ization papers of Leonard Oleson be-
cause he was a Socialist, and his in
junction in the alleged interests Of the
Seattle Benton and Southern railway.
The resolutions of impeachment are
in part as follows:
Resolved. That the committee on 1u-
dietary be directed to inquire and re-
port whether the action of this house Is
necessary concerning the official mis-
conduct Of Cornelius H. Hanford
whether he has been repeatedly in a
drunken condition while presiding in
court; whether he has been guilty of
| corruption in the conduct of his Of
fee and whether his administration has
resulted in injury and wrong to It'll
giants in his court and to others affected
by his decisions"
Wickersham Sees Gross Injustice"
Among the specifications in the reso-
luton of impeachment is the statement
that Oleson. who is a Socialist, was de-
prived Of his right to vote without
due process of law. In this connection
a letter was produced from Attorney
General Wickersham stating that in
the opinion of the department Of jus
tice, Oleson has suffered a gross in
justice"
Berger added that Hanford's repu-
tation for rendering corrupt decisions
lis a matter of long standing noto-
riety' He declared that on one occa-
sion 5000 citizens held a mass meeting
to protest against one of his decisions.

declared, public sentiment was SO
aroused when Judge Hanford forbade

Keep OFF the Grass has given way
in the business section of Atlanta to a
Keep off the Roof sign. which is
nearly as common as the warnings
which used to be posted on various 1T
tie grass plots downtown
Hardly any place has been left in the
congested business section where a
warning against trampling on the grass
could be posted, but high on the fat
roofs Of numerous buildings warnings
that no lineman or other person must
trespass are posted conspicuously.
Property owners say that in many
cases their roofs are on the same level
with roofs Of other buildings and that
when telephone linemen are busy
stringing wire to one building they will
make cross-cuts over their roofs and
that batchways and other openings to
the roof are left uncovered, allowing
rain to soak the upper floors.
