3 He has become a coward,
shrinking through personal fear
of consequences from acts Of
which he is not morally ashamed.
He has become a seducer and
example, bribing other men to
soil their own simplicity and dig
nifty.
5 He has become a most fright
ful fool, playing a part in the ig-
nominious antic from which his
physical self-respect could hardly
recover,
6 He has, in all probability,
come much nearer than he would
in any other way to having a
craving for alcohol. For any
thing sought with such horrible
secrecy and pertinacity has a
great tendency to become mag
netic and irresistible in itself; a
sort Of fetish.
And all that brought about in
order to prevent a man getting
a glass of whisky which he gets
after all. People who support
such prohibition can have no care
for humanity after ALL. :"

disposition he was jovial, straight
forward, charitable and helpful to
those in need whether friends or
strangers.
More than this can be said Of
no man.
The community loses one Of its
best citizens and the sympathy of
the people will go out to his wife
and brothers in this~the hour Of
their affection.

BARNETT STILES DIES
One Of Winslow's Best Citi-
zens Passes Away After
Brief Illness

The death of Barney Stiles, as
he was fanillarly known by his
many friends, caused a shock to
the people of Navajo county
from which they will require some
time to recover.
The suddenness of his taking
off, as is usual in such cases, is
the circumstance which brings
home to his associates the uncer-
tainty Of life.
A man of constant activity and
with extraordinary strength and
vigor, his tenure of life would be
thought to reach to OLD age. but
Providence ordained otherwise
and the people of this community
are left to mourn the demise of
one of their best-knoWn and best
lived citizens, and bow their
heads in submission to the will of
tle Almighty.
He was married in Medina,
Texas, July23, 1906, to Miss Leora
Stanard of that city, and had
reached the age of AZ without
knowing sickness in any serious
form. Less than week ago he
contracted an illness Of such ma
ture as to cause his physicians to
recommend his removal to Albu-
querque Sunday morning, but his
aff1iction had progressed rap
idly and before reaching Gallup
his death occurred.
He was accompanied by his
wife and physician. The remains
were prepared for burial and
shipped to Winslow Mon
day, where they We're met by a |
delegation of Elks and escorted
to the home of the deceased.
Burial was delayed until Thurs
day afternoon to await the ar
rival of brother and wife and
brother-in-laW from Texas.
The funeral procession was an
imposing one, his many friends
and fraternal brothers turning
olt in full strength to show their
regard and respect for one whose
loss they will long mourn.
Funeral services were held at
the family home and at the Gem
etery and were conducted by the
Rev Fred S. Carter. Ell. Barge
man, j. F. Woods, George Hen
nesee, FrankWallace, r. c. Cres
we'll, L.D.Divelbess, A.E. Lamb,
Walter Durham, c. E. Wyrick,
w. w. Roden, and Messrs Car
nelius and Funk acted as pail
bearers.
Barney Stiles came to Winslow
in '86 and has lived here almost
continuously since that time.
Bob Stancel, doc" Demarest,
and possibly a few others are the
only residents who were here al
that time. Winslow was known
only as a signal station on the
time-card and it's depot as box
car.
The Aztec Cattle Company.
better known as the Hash
Knife" engaged Barnev's first
services in Arizona as a cowboy.
and after three years he took oc-
cupation with the Al Cattle
Company near Flagstaff. .
Buying out the remainder of
the Aztec Company in 1898 he
has been engaged in the cattle
business since that time and has
been known as one of the most
prominent men engaged in that
line of business in this country.
He has served the county and
town in public capacities for
many years and his recent nomi-
nation for the office of supervisor
attests the esteem in which he is
held by the public.
Of Barney Stiles it can be said

PETITION FILED FOR RECALL OF
HAMILTON; SEVEN CHARGES MADE

The recall campaign against
County Commissioner Hamilton is
now on in earnest.
The petition against him has al.
ready been filed and County Aud
itor Phelps is now on the job pre-
pairing synopsis OF the seven
charges enumerated against him.
This synopsis will be printed on
the formal recall blanks to be cir
culated by members of the Elec-
trical union and others who will
conduct the recall campaign. II
will be necessary to obtain $4,000
signatures TO invoke the recall cleo
tion. and an effort will be made to
get the names in time for the recall
election to be held at the regular
city election in March.
The petition was filed with the
auditor late Wednesday afternoon
by Richard Mansfield White. and.

who will not squirm and dodge any

will play square with the people first.
last and all the time.
The control Of the council is at stake in
the coming March election.
Five councilmen to be elected.
And that control is, in many ways, much
more important than the election of a mayor.
Under the present charter-and that's the
charter under which we will operate for another
year. at least-the council may render the most
efficient mayor a negative quantity.
The council as it is now constituted and
dominated does not the best interests of
the city.
There have been numerous shining examples
of that
There's good deal of rotten timber in the
present council, and il must be uprooted and
supplanted
Councilman Peirce needs only one or two
more like Bruskevith, who is running for re-
election, to again give him control.
It's not going to be easy fight. Those
intrenched in power never yield without a des-
perate struggle
That is why the people must obtain the very
best material with which to lick the daylights out
of them.
