John Zeitger have closed arrange
ments for exploring the desert region

gold. They will remain away until
next April. on a line of thorough
investigation of that unknown region
lying about thirty miles distant from
;hc river. and where very few have
ever entered the wilderness, owing
10 the absence of water.

P. v. O'SULLIVAN
MAKES REPLY
TO CHARGES
TELLS PUBLIC AT DEM
OCRATIC RALLY HOW
HE HAS ENFORCED THE
LAWS OF THE STATE.
(From Sundays Da1ly.)

P. w. O'Sullivan, T. A. Rogers
Mrs. Frances Munds, John J. Sween
ey. w. Curtiss Miller. \. W. Davis
T. L. Haworth, P. J. Farley aud on,
or two others OF the democratic
county candidates addressed a meet
ing at the Elks theatre last night
which was presided over by R. p
Talbot, who spoke at some length
for the candidates who were not
present or who did not take up any
time.
The meeting was well attended
and in point OF applause took the
lead OF any rally held in Prescott
this campaign.
P w. O'Sullivan made the first
and leading address of the evening,
the rest OF the speakers being brief
and dwelling particularly on their
own individual interests in the cam
paign as candidates. And his adj
dress was warmly applauded. per
haps for the reason it touched upon
the matter of law enforcement in
Yavapai county during the period
he has been county attorney, in re
ply to an attack on the part of his
Bull Moose opponent, which was
made at a meeting in this city a
few evenings ago.
Prefacing his remarks with refer
ence to the achievements of some
OF the great Democratic characters
OF the past, and placing in their
class some OF the great men OF 9TH
or parties, whose public character
he also commended, nc drove the
first nail of his real speech into the
Roosevelt party generally, and soon
was in the midst OF a toasting hot
reply TO the attack on his record. He
referred TO the author OF the attack
as "a gentleman who came here a
few years ago from Kalamazoo or
Timbuctoo. or some other place" and
proceeded to give out some infor-
nation which is valuable to the tax
payers OF Yavapai county who desire
TO keep a real law enforcing man in
the office OF county attorney.

WHAT HE SAID.
Mr.. O'Sullivan said in part:

Mr.. O'Sulllvan said in part:
Ladies and Gentlemen and Fellow
Citizens:-I see before me tonight
men who, in times past. have work
cd and voted for the Democratic
party. l see others before me to-
night who. in days gone by, have
worked and voted in the Republican
party. Both of these parties have
in their time, given to the country
men who were wise in legislation,
honest in the performance OF their
duties. upright and just in their
judgments and patriotic in their de-
votion to their country's welfare and
prosperity.
Democrats have only to mention
the names OF Patrick Henry, Thorn
as Jefferson. Andrew Jackson. Grov-
or Cleveland, William J. Bryan,
Champ Clark and Woodrow Wilson,
and their hearts are filled with the
proud consciousness OF having been
Democrats.
Republicans have only to mention
the illustrious names of Fremont
and Abraham Lincoln and Horace
Greeley and Grant and Garfield and
Mckinley. and their hearts are filled
with the proud consciousness OF
having been Republicans.
The names of all these men, and
hosts of others in both parties are
written high upon the Temple of
Fame and are engraved upon that
more enduring tablet-the hearts and
the memories Of the American peo-
pie.
Those Democratic and Republican
statesmen whom / have mentioned
did not come into public life leather
girt and clad in cameps hair to set
themselves apart from other men as
harbingers OF a panacea for all the
ills that afflict mankind, nor did any
OF them claim any prophetic mis-
sion to pave the way for a millen-
NAL dawn. That attribute OF divinity
was reserved for the monumental
egotist OF the ages, the self-anoint-
ing canonizcd saint of the Bull Moose
party. Mr.. Theodore Roosevelt. This
omnipotent and omniscicnt individual
has certainly solved the problem OF
perpetual motion by reason Of the
fact that he is afflicted with St.
Vitus' dance OF the jaw-bone and is
constantly delivering monologue,
substantially as follows:
My country It's OF me.
Sweet land OF mostly me,
OF thee I yell;
All rule belongs to me,
Perkins, Bill Flynn and me,
For President take me,
Or go to hell"
