The Wheels Of Justice.

The first official act OF Postmaster
Wharton 10 To order restoration Of
Letter Carrier Tillotson to the route
from which he was arbitrarily re-
moved to wreak the vengeance of the
former postmaster.
Letter Carrier Tillotson manfully
refused to be passive victim OF Off
cial despotism, and made complaint
in which he preferred charges which
he offered to prove.
Every charge Letter Carrier Tillot-
son made was fully sustained in the
evidence produced before the gov
eminent inquisitors. and having
made good on his promises. he Is
entitled to have his grievance re-
dressed.
This award Of justice to Letter
Carrier Tillotson must reassure all
the postoffice employees. who ask only
honest dealing and fair treatment on
their merits.

SILVER CREEK, Neb., Feb. ITO
the Editor OF The Bee; am not dis
posed to pay much attention to the alto
sether scurrilous letter of your Elm
Creek correspondent. / wish, however,
to write a little history:
During the winter of isio-isii, met
in Lincoln. on their invitation, certain
gentlemen from Elm Creek to confer
about Union Pacific right-of-way mat
tiers. saw at once that while their in
tentIons were undoubtedly perfectly good,
they were not only utterly ignorant as TO
right-of-way questions. but had very
crude and hazy ideas as to what should
DO done. In child-like innocence they
had conceived the idea that they should
advise with the governor and the at
torney general. But fearing they might
lose their way or become abashed and
helpless In the immediate presence OF
supreme executive power, they wisely
hired your correspondent. an ex-Philip-
pine soldier. who has no interest In the
'1ght-of-way. to escort them. have
reason to believe your correspondent
earned his money and proved to be an
excellent chaperon,
l admit that undertook to give those
gentlemen some good advice. I further
admit that / think they showed great
lack OF sense in not accepting that ad-
vice. ! did not attempt TO dictate, there
or thereafter. But i will not longer re-
main silent while unthinking men. iruor-
ant OF their rights OF the law, are sacri-
fieing their real interests on advice OF
attorneys who originally were doubtless
as ignorant Of the whole matter as them
'elves and yet have much to learn n
trying honestly to serve the interests AZ
their clients. thing OF which have
very grave doubts.
In my opinion a winning fight could be
made for tho right-of-way farmers In
tho courts. ] believe the law officers,
themselves. OF the Union Pacific are Of
that opinion. or else they would long
ago have seen that case went 10 the
supreme court to be definitely and fin
ally settled. Now, II looks 10 me a.
though the Union Pacific had a case they
would DO willing to take to the supreme
court. And why2 Simply because Prince
md Mahoney, the attorneys Of the farm
ers In those Dawson county cases. have
admitted the main contentious on which
the company have heretofore relied. The
bull In congress Is simply to distract at
tention of the farmers while the smooth

SOUTH OMAHA. Feb. 2-To the
Editor Of The Bee: As one Of the Oldest
and most loyal republicans in Nebraska,
and having assisted in organizing the
q. o. p. in 1854 and 1855. naturally
conclude that my own republicanism Is
most definitely and firmly established.
Governor Aldrich. however. Is so con-
sumed with his own personal popularity
and seif-importance that he expects re-
pubIicans to re-nominate him. and re-
elect him as governor Of this republican
state while he has spent most Of his
time advocating insurgency.
I believe all substantial republicans
desire to see the democratic party nom
mate a patriotic and worthy candidate.

such staid and stable governor to q
disturber and malcontent ouch as Aid
rich has proven to- be.

SON DEFENDS MOTHER
FIRES BULLET INTO HIS FAITH ER'S MOUTH WHILE LATTER IS BEATING BOYS MOTHER.

Stockton, Cal, Mar. 29.-Peter Sut- ton, resident of Spring Gulch, lies at the Sierra Hospital dangerously wounded as a result of quarrel with his wife and son, in which he was shot twice. It seems that Sutton drank too freely of mountain whiskey and at tempted to abuse his wife She re- monstrated and when he persisted in calling her vile names, seized re- volver and shot him in the groin.
 Infuriated by the unexpected attack Sutton fell upon the woman like a wild beast and sank his fingers into her throat. The 9-year-old son of the couple stood by until his mother s face began to redden under the pres sure of the mans iron grip, then he picked up the revolver, which the woman had thrown to the floor, and fired bullet into his fathers mouth. It ended the fight and doubtless saved the woman's life. The attending physicians say that Sutton has a fair chance of recovery.

FALSE HAIR REQUIRES CARE
Mistake to Neglect This Ornaments tion Which Just Now Is Consid-
 cred Indispensable.

False hair, as we'll as the real, needs care. The psyche switch, and trans formation, should be brushed as care fully as the real hair and as often. The best way to do 1t is to place towel on the lap or table and spreading the "piece" on it, brush with a rubber backed bristle brush, first one side and then the other. This removes all tangles and does not tear the hair as does a comb. Without natural oils bought" hair soon grows lusterless. It should be brushed frequently with brilliantine. Put a few drops in the palm of the hand, then rub the brush over it. Be sure to get brilliantine that is not greasy. There are several makes that give luster, yet do not leave the hair sticky. Also hair can be washed in thick soapsuds made from pure white soap. Only the lathe. should be used, and then rinse in sev- eral waters. Dry between chamois cloths or press almost dry in the hands. Then hang in a current of air, and when dry shake and brush until fluffy. Occasional washing with gaso- line is considered good for false hair Do not use ammonia or borax on false hair, as this will discolor 1t.

That Distinctive Touch Which All Mothers Desire Is Not Easy to Glve-some Pretty Tub Suits

That little tot whose trousers are only about as long as your hand is an important parsonage when it comes to fitting him out with raiment. There is all the difference in the world in the appearance he makes when he is just cut down and sewed up and when he Is suitably and pic turesquely dressed.
 Not only are his little clothes care fully finished, but they often have some magic touch of handwork which quite places them In the out-of-the- usual class. Every mother wants her boy or girl to take a prominent place in this class.
 Johnny Smith may look all right in his made-by-the-dozen suits and so long as he Is clean maybe there is no criticism due him-but the mother with alert taste just can't bear her own child to look like any nice boy you see in the streets. He simply must bear that extra touch, which Is so hard to give to a boy, where as with little girl it can be done easily
 Just now the more small children look like quaint little men the better They are perfect pictures in summer with their pretty little tub suits in colors.

Democrats, Be Careful

We trust that our legislature will move with caution ALL BILLS that will tend in any manner to increase the burdens of taxation. The demo- cratic party preached from the house tops last election ECONOMY. It was a magnificent thing to preach, and a much better thing to PRACTICE. Now, if we read the signs correctly, there are a sufficient number of bills pending in both houses to swamp the State of Arizona. We realize there is no way to prevent the introduction of fool bills, but we ask our democratic lawmakers to consider with care, and take ample time to consider, before they vote these bills into our statute books. The democratic party of this state is on trial. We have made many promises of reform. Now, let us keep faith with the voters of the state DO NOT CREATE ONE NEW OF FICE WITHOUT SOME GREAT NEED OF SUCH OFFICE EXISTS; and further, when new OFFICE IS CREATED, allow te voters of Arizona to fill such office by their votes the bane of this government is and has been the many offices filled by appointment.-Arizona Democrat.

PHOENIX MEN IN
 OFFICIAL CHANGES

Phoenix, Mar. 31.-Charles Howe of Tombstone, Cochise county, is sec. retary of the Arizona Fair Associa- tion. He will continue to fill the posi- tion until July l., when he will be sue ceeded by State Senator c. B. Wood, of Phoenix.
 Shirley Chisty, who acted as secre- tary of the territorial commission for three years declined to continue in office, as he was requested to do by the commissioners, shortly after they met and organized yesterday morning. It is now known that the program all along included the appointment of Wood, that his present legislative dut- ies and other business make it impos- sible for him to commence serving be- fore the first of July.
 Christy was offered the place till the first of July, but told the commis sioners that he could consider no of fers whatever, unless he was assured that he would serve till after the first state fair. He had an offer from the Los Angeles Driving Association, which he recently helped to organize, and was thinking seriously of accept ing it. He stated this morning, how ever, that he will probably devote all his time to his ranch and not go to the coast.
 The word has gone forth that Wood was to be secretary after the first of July and the question was to get a man to fill the place till then. Howe was finally chosen from a num- Der of possibilities.
 When Howe steps out of the office of secretary of the Fair Commission, he will step into the more lucrative position of state examiner. His ap- pointment to the place was left vacant by Chisty merely to take care of him temporarily. Howe failed to land the job of clerk of the supreme court, for which he was an active candidate, and when Joe Dillon got that place, Howe was promised that something would be done for him later. Now, it is un- derstood, he has been promised that he will be made state examiner when a law before the legislature goes into effect.

Do not consign the wornout raincoat to the waste bag. One can make many little things which would demand too much of the expensive oiled silk, and the waterproof cloth is of lighter weight than oilcloth, which one would probably purchase. An apron with a bib can be made for wash day or when you give the baby a bath. A large enveloping cap for the hair will pro- tect from water when windows are being cleaned. Strips of an old silk raincoat can be worked into bags to carry next years bathing suit, and the pieces may be easily made over into bathing caps or little utility cases dear to the suitcase of travellers.

THAT PARKER JAIL

The Parker Post is probably little bit unified, about something as the following editorial paragraphs from the current issue of that paper will tend to show:
 While the town of Parker has been refused "a jail by the board of supervis ors that body has not overlooked the little matter of sending the assessor around to tax it's real and personal property"
 When county is too poor to build a jail in a town of Parker's size, it's about time to turn things over to the hobos and thieves infesting this part of the desert"
 'In the absence of a jail it might not be amiss to organize committee of vigilantes and throw the evil doers into the silvery Colorado"
 From the above it might appear that the town of Parker was very likely to go Republican this fall.

NEW ROCK COMPANY
 FORMED IN YUMA
(From Mondays Examiner)

The Black Butte Rock and Brick company has been formed in Yuma, with H. H. Donkersley, John R. Speese and CeCrge H. Redwood as the com panv.
 It is the intention ;s the inocrpora tors 10 open up a new rock quarry in tue Speese hill at once, and to furnish crushed lock to the $ P. railroad, the U $. R. S., and iO any private per- sons or corporations who may desire crdsht rock for any purpose whatso- ever.
 A spur railroad track will be built from the S. P. tracks out to the quarry and a gravity dump installed where cars ana wagons may be loaded in a Hurry, by merely pulling lever and letting the crushed rock slide from the hopper to the car or wagon.
 New and modern machinery will al % be installed at once and the capaci- " of the plant made large enough for all present and future demands.
 The new company has a contract with the Southern Pacific, it is under stood, whereby the s. P. will take all surplus rock the company may have, and in this way it will be possible for the new company to keep the plant go- ing at it's full capacity every day in the year.
