Feminine Baseball
 Team at St. David

Two baseball teams have lately been formed at St David, and the first contest was had last Thursday. Those composing the teams are of the feminine gender They have doffed their skirts and sub.t tituted bloomers that they may get around the field more rapidly. and i: is said that the initial game would do honor to professionals.
 Uncle" John Merrill umpired the game, ard sohle of his decisions were that questionable that the younger set would have straneled him had it not been for the older nine, who are married aomen, opposing the maidens of the valley It is said that Uncle" Jobn's advanced sge is all that saved him from dire punishment. Another same will be played the latter part of this week.
 It is hoped to have the teams play an exhibition game in Ton bstone later.

Cochise Lady Writes
 Song, Arizona State"

A Douglas lady, Mrs Margaret Clifford has written a song worthy of note, eptitled, "Arizopa State" and the same has been set to music by Len Fleming.
 THE SONG Come to the land Of sunshine,
 To this land where life is young; W here the wide. wide world is waiting z The Songs that will now be sung; Where the golden sun is flaming In the warm, white shining day, And the sons of men are blazing, Their priceless right-oi-way. CHORUS Then Hurrah for Arizona
 Her climate, schools and law; For her copper, gold and silver
 Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrahl Come, stand beside the rivers,
 Within our valleys broad; Stard here with heads un covered,
 In the presence of cur God: While all around about us
 The brave, unconquered land, As guardians and landmarks The giant mountains stand. Not slcne for gold and silver : Is Arizona great, But with graves of heroes sleeping
 All the land is constcrate.
 Oh, come and live beside us,
 And name these temples home. Come help us build.our temples l However Tar ye roam.

EMPIRE COMPANY
EXPENDS 100000
Spends Sum to Place Ma
chimes in Chicago, Is
Charge.
COMPETITORS STRONG
Empire Representatives Re-
fuse to Testify Before the
Butts Commission.

The Butts committee, which has
been investigating the voting machine
question in Chicago, has brought out
a number of facts concerning the vot-
ing machine business in this country.
1t seems there have been at least thir-
ty-odd concerns to date on the market
with machines. The best known of
these have been the Standard, located
IN Rochester. New York: the Triumph,
made in Pittsfield, Mass, and the En-
pfre, of jamestown, New York.
According to the experts secured by
the investigating committee the best
OF these all the way round is the EN-
pire. 1t was from this company that
Chicago purchased 1000 machines
And it is the Empire company which
has been most thrown into the lime
light by the investigation.
In probing into the contract made
with this concern, the committee
learned that the whole matter had
been begun by the offer Of the EN-
pire company's representative to for
mer Mayor Picker, Of Ottumwa, Ia,
of $1,000 for his influence in getting
the Chicago officials to listen kindly to
the company's proposals. The written
contract entered into between H. w.
Barr, the company's representative,
and Mr.. Pickler and two friends, was
produced before the Butts committee
and accepted as evidence. But the
company discovered itself driven to
such unexpected expense before the
matter was consummated that Messrs.
Picker and friends were compelled to
compromise for $1,000.
Expense Is Heavy.
That the company was in consider
able expense in getting it's deal
through is shown by the statement Of
Mr.. Barr, who said. ut cost us some
thing like 100000 to place the ma
chimes in Chicago" OF this, according
to E. E. Marriott, $4,000 was paid to
Mr.. Andy Lawrence, manager of Mr..
Hearsts Examiner
These facts attested to before the
investigating committee has resulted
that number of it's contracts over the
country have been cancelled.
Furthermore it seems that the con-
Germ has lost caste by the refusal of
it's officials or its representative to
testify before the Butts committee
Chicago business men are quoted as
saying that house with a million
dollars at stake would surely be eager
to get on the field and make a fight
for its rights, but the Empire COM
pany has contented itself throughout
with being represented by a lawyer.
The committee was unable to locate
Mr.. Barr, the agent who had carried
through the Chicago deal, when it de-
sired him to testify. He had disap-
peared. And General manager Lam

caster fatty refused to appear before
the committee. Just what his grounds
for refusing were has not yet been
made plain to the investigators.
Has Other Troubles
But the Empire concerns troubles
are not all confined to Chicago. For a
prolonged period ii has been tangled
in legal conflicts with its business
rival, the Triumph Voting Machine
company OF Pittsfield Mass. This
fight had so drained the Empires
treasury, according 10 some of the
stockholders in the company, that il
was on the verge of going into a re
ceiyer's hands when the Chicago con-
tract came along as a mode of relief.
But now, since that contract is hang
ing in the balance. and under the bur
den of heavy expenses the legal pro
ceedings have entailed upon the COM
pany. II has been unable TO stand the
strain and has now sold out 10 its COM
petitors, the Triumph company, all
the property except bills receivable
and uncompleted contracts" This sale
was made public on the first OF this
month. When asked for an explana-
ton one OF the chief stockholders said :
The company never has been a fl
nancial success, no dividends ever hav-

discover the causes of it's irreparable decay. On
the face of it it is untitled to conduct the bust
ness affairs of great business corporation.
Are the Republican nominees afraid of
having their own business records examined I'M
der the scrutiny of calm eyes and in the quiet
ness of ones own reason that they must go out
and stir up lot of unthinking, unreflecting par
ty prejudice on the streets and so get themselves
elected into office by exactly the same means
that street fakir gets victims into his ten cent
show?
We fear the final results of Mr.. Shiveley S
torch lights will be to cast the Republican party
into deeper gloom than ever. We fear his drum
corps will merely serve to usher them the fur
Their into oblivion which is entirely fitting.
And afraid that Mr.. lifts Transparent
cies will render the local Republican machine
more opaque than ever.

What DR.. Davis Could Have Done

DR.. T. Henry Davis, city health officer, must
shoulder the blame for the apsing of the policy OF
having Richmond supplied with milk from tuber-
uline tested herds.
1t is true that DR.. Davis has been handicapped
in an effort to obtain such beneficial reform for
the people of Richmond by law which practical
ly places ban on the testing of COWS. But he is
nonetheless open to censure for failure to employ
weapon more powerful than the law to accom-
plish such a reform. Such a weapon, aroused
public sentiment, was being employed successful
ly by DR.. Davis predecessor, DR.. G. S. Bond and
for time this policy continued by DR.. Davis.
However, when the law referred to was passed.
that today the Cooper Dairy is the only one trad
ing in Richmond which has its COWS tested to
make sure they are not afflicted with tubercu-
losis
If Dr. Davis now wants to inaugurate pub
licity campaign to the public to the
necessity of obtaining healthful milk supply
the columns of the Palladium are open to him.
and this paper will cooperate with him actively
in such a crusade, as it did when DR.. Bond waged
his fight for such a reform.
DR.. Davis will find that once there is a pop
uar demand for such heathfu milk supply
there will soon be more than one dairy which has
it's COWS tuberculine tested The law drafted to
protect the selfish interests of dairymen will no
longer be prop for them to lean upon A right
eous public demand is above any law.

sales expenses have been so large and
the constant repairs, etc. have cost so
much that the business has not paid
a profit" Another person. prominent
ly connected with the business. said
after the sale was made known: The
voting machine business is now
trust" The Empire company itself
was a small holding company with six
or seven subsidiary concerns in CON
nection.
One OF the surprises OF the investi-
cations made by the committee is
that among the most prominent stock
holders are two OF the most widely
known gamblers in the country: John
Condor, of Chicago, and a certain VIII
liams. of Oakland, California. Some
testimony was given before the COM
mittee suggesting a relationship be
tween the voting machine trust and
Tammany Hall but IL was found impos-
sible 10 elicit anything very definite
from the various witnesses on this
score.

Like those Nicean banks of yore,
That gently DER perfumed sea,
The weary, wayworn wanderer bore

Thy Naiad airs have brought me home
To the glory that was Greece
And the grandeur that was Rome.

The agate lamp within thy hand!
