Weekly Citizen. SATURDAY, APRIL 1894 Bcbixess on the Atlantic seaboard is improving Elowly, despite the exertions of the democratic party to the oontrary. Bekson is to have a paper. It will be in accord with the spirit of the times and be republican. Govebxob Tillman has been called down from his high peroh of whiskey dispenser to South Carolinians and will have to 6tand a congressional investigation.

Fokkigiteks have taken charge of the Pennsylvania coke regions, and riot, coercion and bloodshed is the order of the day. Another argument in favor of restrictive immigration laws. Phoesix is in the throes of a municipal election. If the republicans of that burg follow in line witn their brethren of this city the democratic candidates can lick the outside of the platter of of-fioe, but nothing more will be left them. The first installment of Coxey's unwashed have reached Washington.

They are howling for a change with a big It is the same old howl of two years ago. They wanted a ohange and got it and now they are howling for another. A CBYiyQ want of the town is a bridge across the Santa Cruz river at its intersection with Stevens avenue. With a bridge at puoh a point the avenue would become the most popular thoroughfare in southern Arizona. Evxjc the little Japs are talking saucy to Uncle Sam over the Hawaiian situs tion.

If this administration is not flat and hollow failure it will teach the slant-eyed meddlers that there is an everlasting heil and that Japanese will soon be inhabitants thereof unless they Etrictly attend to their business. Governor Hfgbes, has been in office just one year and a most painful year it has been for the Cockleburrs. They have had him removed and his success or appointed about twice a week since he received his commission, but not withstanding these summary dismissal ne smilingly continues to draw ma pay and attend to his official duties. A toll bridge across the Santa Cruz would be not only unsatisfactory but it would be non-paying. The expense of maintaining a keeper would largely ex ceed any returns the bridge could pos sibly bring in, as much of the travel except when forced by high water, would go around by the hospital road What is wanted is a free bridge, and a free bridge can be built providing the Hon.

Board of Supervisors will meet the peo pie half way with the good work. Gek. Weaver is engaged in the enter prise of redeeming a fine tract of land in the San Pedro valley in the vicinity oittedttecK. it is the intention to pump the abundant waters of the valley found there at the depth of about twenty feet Herald. The foregoing is correct with two sole exoeption.

The valley- ebould be the Santa Cruz and not the San Pedro. Between the two valleys lies the Santa Catalina mountains one of the largest ranges in Arizona. Red Rock is about twenty miles north of Tucson. The tract of land to be redeemed is one of the finest in Arizona. The second mUtake is that General Weaver has petered out and is not doing any reclaim' ing in Arizona.

Us der date of March 30, Secretary of Agriculture, Morton, published a circular in reply to letters received inquiring the results of the department's rain fall experiments, and the feasibility of controlling precipitation by means of explosions. In it he says: "Replying to your letter as to rainmakmg experiments, I have to inform you that in no case did they pass the merely experi mental stage, and that prospect of ultimate success is not such as to justify farmers or other citizens in rainmaking experimentation. In this determination, judgment and opinion, I am supported by the scientists and other alleged experts in meteorology connected with the United States weather bureau. The bombardment of the skieB for water, as carried on by this department, did not produce results calculated to inspire the hope that any method of concussion can be made commercially successful in precipitating the moisture from the clouds." ORGANIZE. The importance to the people of the country that the next house of representatives shall be republican can scarcely be over-estimated.

The Washington correspondent of the New York Tribune in a careful review of the situation, shows the great necessity for earnest, faithful, intelligent and constant work to secure that desirable result. Public patronage and the large amount of money that the democrats have control of will be used for all it is worth to defeat the will of the people. The next house, therefore, will not be won to the republicans without great and eerious effort. Many intelligent men in and out of Arizona believe with effort and organization we can win every congre-sional district. We have, on a number of occasions, urged our party friends to begin the battle now by closing up our ranks and inviting the true men who fully appreciate the evils that have followed the nation by the triumph of the democratic party to join us in the work thai is before us.

As we have said before, the election of congressmen this fall is not a question of sentiment, but a question of "bread and butter" for millions of laboring men in the land. Will the republicans organize? The situation is too serious to admit of delay. We want a republican congressman from Arzona, and we can secure one if wa will go to work to scc mplisb it. Whrvsver a democrat in congress get to live'y it is only necessary to siy one jrord "elections" as glum as a discarded lover. The Murn- from -last week's ele: tious L9 1 orly ftddA-j to the ertainy fVlt by republicans in cocgrees of controlling the next hou93 and eleotifg the next president.

The republicans have added to Jhe democratic humiliation by laughing at their weak attempts to make light of the storm of popular indignation against the incompetency of the demo cratio party. There were exactly twenty-four democrats and four populists who voted against giving the seat in the house to which Mr. Joy was elected to Mr. O'Neill, but the eteal having bean ordered by a majority of the committee on elections, it was finally consutnated, as well as that which unseated Mr. Uil-born, of California.

It took about ten days of hard work to get a voting quorum of democrats willing to commit these outrages. Mr. Joy expects to be one of the republican majority of the next house. seem The populists in the senate disposed to go it alone on the tariff bill. Some time ago Senator Peffer introduced a tariff bill of his own and gave notice that he would at the proper time move that it be substituted for a bill report ed from the finance committee, which is now before the senate.

And this week Senator Allen, of Nebraska, introduced an amendment to the tariff bill which makes a general and material reduction in the duties imposed by the committee's bill, and contains a provision, for the free coinage of silver. The question of a free coinage amendment to the tariff bill is causing the administration much anxiety. It will be remembered that Senator Quay gave notice before the tariff bill passed the house of his intention to offer a free coinage amendment. Republican senators notified the democrats while Senator Allison was making bis great Breech against the tariff bill that they knew their rights and intended to maintain them during this debate, and that any expectation of railroading the bill through the senate might as well be abandoned from the start The democrats have put senator Harris, of Tennessee, in charge of the bill because of their belief that his pushing qualities exceed those possessed by Senator Voorhees, whose position as chairman cf the finance committee makes him the actual custodian of the bill. The recent elections have strengthened the determination of the republicans to fight the bill with every weapon at their command, the most of them believing that the 15,000,000 people affected by the bill will endorse any action that prevents the bill from beooming a law.

THE "KE ARS ARGE" COURT MARTIAL. The trial by court martial, whieh began in the navy-yard in Brooklyn on March 23d, of Commander Oscar F. Heyerman and Lieutenant C. H. Lyman, of the navy, for negligence in causing the loss of the famous old corvette Kearsarge on Roncador reef on February 2d last, has afforded civilians an excel lent illustration of that lofty dignity and high sense of duty that prevail in judicial tribunals composed of naval or militarv officials.

The last court mar tial in Brooklyn before this of a com mander of a naval vessel was held three years ago. The charge then was cruelty The charge this time ia losing the vessel that was most dear to the memory of all patriotic citizens. Naval court martial of one kind or another are frequent enough in the dismal-looking buildings in the Brooklyn yard, but probably none more interest ing than this one was ever held there. This time one finds on trial a commander universally respected, whose handsome, frank face is indicative cf his high personal character and ability as sailor; a man beloved by hi associates, superiors and inferiors, as few men in the navy have been; a man, doubtless, who would have preferred to lose his life in the honorable service of his coun try than lose this ship, of all ships on which the stars and stripes were raised Harpers Weekly. The reported contemplated removal of Governor Hughes meets with but lit tie credence outside of interested circles.

The governor appears to be attending strictly to his official duties, and to those not interested in the democratic wrangle no good is seen to come to the territory tnrougn a cnange. liis successor, if he has one, under the present administration, must perforce be a dem ocrat, and, to the people, one Hughes is as good as another. That Dr. H. A Hughes would make an excellent gov ernor is not questioned, but that he could make better governor than L.

C. Hughes is open to many serious ob jections. As a party man Dr. Hughes, while out of office, is more popular, but, clothe him with gubernatoral powers and as a dispenser of offices he would speedily be as unpopular as the present incumbent. There are not enough offices to go around, and there's the rub.

Like Coxey's army at Pittsburg, the officers which, of course, are the gov ernor's own particular friends would be fed on the pie, while the cold privi lege of looking on would fall, as it did then, to the rank and file. WThen Zu-lick was governor the same old jangle over his appointments was made a9 now fills the territory. He proclaimed him self the democratic Moses and said to an admiring audience, "I will lead you out of the wilderness," but as he failed to deliver the goods he become the most abused man in the country. Many of his official acts were open to grave sus- icion, to say the least. This cannot be eaid of Gov.

Hughes, for whatever he may have done in private life, his official actions are believed to be above reproach. By these he will undoubtedly be judged at the throne at Washington and his removal, unless we much mistake, will come through a republican president, and not from the prtsent White House ocoupant. Interested parties must not forget that the people as a whole are not a party to the present democratic heartburnings and bicker-erings. Secretary Lamont will be called on to make an explanation which will be very difficult for him to do as toon as he returns from hid pleasant southern "inspection" tour. He made a i.roiaise in Mr.

Cleveland's name, that has been violated by Mr. Cleveland. The Etory of the transaction may be i summed up about as follows: Mr. Cleveland treated the democrats of Washingtou bo Bbabbily during his first term that wbep be was nominated in 1892 the Washington democrat flatly refused to contribute a cent to help elect him. Now the Washington democrats had in previous campaigns contributed more largely in proportion to their numbers than those of any city, so the national committee desired to have them placated, and Dan Lamont was sect here to do the placating.

They told Lamont that Mr. Cleveland had filled the local offices with outsiders in his first term and they wouldn't chip in to elect him again. Whereupon Dan Lamont pledged his word in behalf of Mr. Cleveland that no one should be appointed to an office in the district of Columbia who was not a bona fide resident of the same, if the local demo crats would chip in with their usual liberality; butlaet week the pledge was broken by Mr. Cleveland, who nominat ed C.

H. J. Taylor, a colored Kansas democrat, to be recorder of deeds for the district of Columbia. When Secretary Lamont returns he will hear from the looal democrats. Meanwhile they are working to prevent the confirmation of Taylor's nomination, and judging from senators' talk they 6tand a goed chance of succeeding.

The captain Kelley who is cutting such a wide swath among the Industrials now stranded in Utah, left a good position as foreman of the typographical room of Hicks, Judd leading printers and book binders of San Fran-c'ibco. He also deserted a young wife and child to assume command of the motley crew which recently left San Francisco to join Coxey in his great march to Washington. Evidently he is of that class that prefers to be support ed on charity instead of his own labor. America produces through natural resources about $8,000,000,000 each year and adds to natural values an equal amount. Eight manufacturing indus tries support 1,023,467 employees and payout more money each year for wages than the combined cotton, wheat, corn and other grain crops of the country are valued at.

Clapp Co. Lasd grants are having better suc cess with the courts in New Mexico than in Arizona. The court now in session at Santa Fe heu confirmed Plaza Blanoa land grant for sixteen thousand acres, situated in Rio Arriba county The petition for the Corpus Christi land grant for 600,000 seres in Southern Colorado was dismissed as the land of the petitioner was afterwards foand to be ia Texas. Organized idlers find no sympathy from the people of Utah. That terri tory has been built up and made great by organized industry and the so-called industrials can find no lodgment her borders.

xne courier says: "Arizona needs a paper manufacturing establishment. Excellent paper can be made from the prodigious crop of sunflower plants which cover tbe land. The Courier is prompted to these remarks by baviDg io pay aoout tau ireiznt on a snin- ment of $100 north of newspaper from Denver to Prescott. We would rather buy paper from a manufactory here in frescott and nay the factory the entire freight money: in fact we would gladly make the change on those conditions, as the money paid out would circulate at home and we would get a dollar or two of it back as it passed around." The Gazette seconds the motion. The Citizen votes aye.

Oar Mineral Wealth. A FIGHTING WONDER. He Pats on the Gloves With Fel- low Prisoner An individual has been about the streets wearing a sweater and training shoes, and poeicg as an "awful" fighter.

He has also been serving a short term in jail, and while in there had a chance to keep his hands in. Under Sheriff Proctor told him in confidence that he had a Mexican in jail he could practice on." "Say," 6aid Proctor, "you are pretty handy with the gloves, ain't you?" "Wheel" was the reply, "well. I should smile!" "Now, lookee here, we have a Mexican in there who outboxed two or three little Mexicans, and he thinks he is a ter ror. JNow, 1 want you to take the conceit out of him. I'll let bim in the yard with you, and you go at him eaey at first just to encourage him.

Then, after a while, knock bim out. Let me get at the 1 I'll fix him!" was the answer. The Mexican in Question is Carlos Larrigcebel. He is really a powerful man, and fairly good with the gloves. rroctor told him the conversation with tbe wonder of the sweater and training shoes, and advised the Mexican to see first if the wonder was too much for him, and if so to withdraw.

Proctor declared himself timekeeper. and locked the barred door between himself and the combatants. They drew on the gloves, the wonder confi dent and tbe Mexican grim. I he wonder began to dance. He was encouraging his man.

He made a few but somehow they did not land. All at once he fell backwards fullv ten feet. He got up bleeding and muttering: "The hits hard." Then he came back and tried ta fix the Mexican, per promise. But some how he couldn't. The Mexican had a terrible side blow that would send him reeling to the right.

As he came up he would be Bent reeling in the other di rection. Soon the two Bides of his face were swollen and his visage much dam aged, while the Mexican showed no damages. A final blow was too much, nd then Mr. Proctor e-lled time.

Tflke Simmons I Liver Regulator. TELEGRAPHIC Milwaukee, April 9. Davidson's theater, the finest building in Milwaukee, and one of the handsomest and costliest buildings in the country, was destroyed by fire today, which broke out between four and five o'clock this morning. AH the valuable scenery carried by the Lilliputians, worth $25,000, iB totally destroyed. The theater roof, on which a score or more firemen stood, went down and the men were carried with it Some were rescued from the flames by their comrades, who risked their own lives to drag out the forns of the dead and injured.

Seven or sight men were brought out and those aVle to speak said that there must be ten nore in the ruins. The burning roof had fallen on them and they were roasted to death if not killed io plunging from the roof. Several men who were workiig in the theater were caught by falling timbers and other portions of the roof, which made the rescue of the imprisoned men impossible. Milwaukee, April 9. The polica report that sixteen lives were lost.

ohn Gee, who went down with the root was pinned down with bricks, but sipped out of his clothing and escaped, thtugh badly bruised and burned. William Crowley was pinned down by the fire' for several hours and his friends were hesitating between letting him burn or letting him drown. Crow-lay asked friends of his to cut his legs oCeo that he could be released, but he was finally rescued. The fireuen were not on the roof when it fell bu; on the floor benea'h it. The origin of the fire is unknown.

The loss to the Lilliputian company is $00,000, and the theatre abcut Bo6Toy, April 9. Tie bark Belmont, of Boston, is asLore off Chatham. Six of his crew are reported lost. Fresno, April 9. The Hath jury is reported to stand 10 to 2, bit it not known which way.

The jury vere Bent back by Judge Shaw for further deliberation. Cosnellsvilve, April 9. Xearly all works closed down by the strikers have resumed operations and everything is peaceful. The operators, hwever, fear the ominous silence. The itrikers are assembling in the vioinity of Trotter and Leisinring ostensibly for a meet ing, but tbe impression prevals that they are contemplating an attack.

Washington, April 7. The prispect for a daycf legal argument in the Pol- lard-Breckiriridge case failed to draw out even the members of the bar to day. Neither of the principals were in court. Carlderrn Carlisle asked for fourteen instructions to the jury cov ering every poseiDie aspect or tne case. The substance of the instructions asked for by Carlisle is as follows: If the jury finds that there were mu tual promises of marriage between the plrtintiffar defendant, and if the de fendant married thereafter, it constitutes a breach of promise.

If the plaintiff and defendant were foucd to have had illicit intimacy before the promise, that would constitute no de fense, and if she had illicit intercourse with others, and he knew it before he madft the promise, it ia nt a Uofouae. From the burden of proof that there was io oe a semoianoe or a marriage contract, with the understanding the contract would not be carried out rest ed upon defendant and the jury must be convinced by the preponderance of evidence such was a fact. The jury must find for the tlaintiff unless tney nnd that tnere was a mu tual agreemeLt not to carry out the semblance of the contract. Also un less iney nnu ina piaintin did not ne cept promises from the defendant and knew at the time they had net been made in good faith, but agreed with him that they were not to be binding, and this must be shown by tbe pre ponaerance or. evidence, ne made a promise to mairy in good faith and the accepted it in good faith, no defense was constituted thereby.

The conduct of the plaintiff and de lenaani aner making tne contract is to be considered. If the promises are found to have been repeated by him before Mrs. Blackburn and Major Jttoore, tne fact oi a secret understand ing must be proved by the preponder ance or eviaence, and tne tact oi a carnal knowledge between tbe two is not a defense. If the jury believed the plaintiff to be unchaste and the de fendant knew rf rer unchastity, that unchastity did not constitute a de fense. If the jury, believes Bhe told him she had been intimat with Rhodes and thereafter premised marriage, that ntimacy does not form a justification tor a breach of contract.

A Btcret marriage to another after tne same promises to marry and before others, does not constitute a defense. but an aggravation of damaeres. That it be was married April 29, kept that marriage a secret and thereafter en A. 1 lereu inu a contract, that tnirnnra was not a defense. The iurv are to consider all the relations of the parties.

improvement in nr cir cumstances, promised marriage, cir cumstances or tne violation of contract and wrong committed, and may give exemplary damages. Announcement of tbe contract to third parties, with additional humiliation to plaintiff, which its breach under these circumstances constitute, may be considered tin aggravation of damages. The ability or inability of the defend ant to pay cannot be considered aa miti gating circumstances in awarding dam ages. It the jury finds the plaintiff was chaste, save with defendant, and that attempts to impeach her character made not in trood faith, but to nnnt.riva to. fense, they are to consider that fact as I an aggravation of damages.

The prayers of the defense for instruc tions were fewer. In eubstaace they reau as iouows: Before plaintiff recover damages, the jury muBL oeueve inai a contract WbS entered into between plaintiff and de fendant by which they agreed to become husband and wife. If no actual agree-I ujeui, biuieiueuia uiaue in me nresence of ethers dots not constitute a promise of marriage and if made pursuant to mutual understanding should not be considered as evidence. Admitted improper relations between plaintiff and defendant and bis support of her are not to be considered evidence of engagement. Burden of proof of the I engagement rests on the plaintiff.

De- I fendsnt laving been married April 29. 1 1893, nn agreement made to marry there-1 after was void. I If the jury find a contract to marry I was entered into and believe the Dlain-1 tiff was guilty of lasciverous conduct I with other men, euch fact beinir nn-1 known to defendant, he is by it released I I coin obligation to carry out tho con tract, and this is so whether at the time of his refusal he knew of such conduct or not. If the jury hnd there was a rnn tract to marry and plaintiff by threats owT! PJ8 cuBsd from fulfilling the contract. If I the jury believes there was a contract.

I but find plaintiff in fault with nthnr I men, the verdict should be for defend-1 ant, even it be knew her fault. I The first argument for plaintiff was by Attorney W. G. Johnson, and Mr. Shelby followed with the opening argument for the defense.

Judge Bradley reserved decision on the construction until Monday, although intimated he would grant one of the prayers for plaintiff, and said in speaking of another prayer: "I see no reason to change my opinion that existing marriage at the time be made the promise, if he made it, is no defense." The length of arguments were discussed by tbe judge and attorneys and while Judge Bradley thought five hours a side would be sufficient, the lawyers wanted more time. No conclusion was reached. Ogden, April 10. The climax in Industrial army affairs may be reached in a short time. The militia still surround the Industrial army camp, and the railroad does not appear to be anxious to make a move.

The men are peaceable so far, but they say they will go east on tbe Union Pacific, and it is not known what methods the Industrials may take. The Southern Pacific railroad refused to obey the order of the court and Gov ernor West has given them one hour in which to comply with it, otherwise he will forcibly take possession of the cars lock the men in them and take them out of the territory. Rexo, April Reno contingent of the Industrial army seizdd an east bound train, this morning, climbing on the top of four freight cars attached to the rear of the passenger train and refusing to leave the cars when ordered. A switch engine was then sent down to the yard, coupled to the freight cars and before commonwealers knew what was happening the cars were detached from the train and they were speeding back westward. The passenger train then proceeded and the switch engine subsequently brought the freight cars and commonwealers back to town.

The leaders claim they will ignore tbe injunction of the Utah courts forbidding the army to march into that territory. They say will call it a "Heaven at Hand" army on the programme to go to Washington and will claim the constitutional right of performing religious duties. New Cabtle, April 10. Mrs. A.

Citv of Mexico, April 10.

The Inter national Mortgage bank of this city and New York is heartily in favor of Senator Wolcott's Mexican coinage scheme.

April 9. A terrific storm commenced last night. Since daylight the wind has blown a hurri cane and snow is tailing. All tratuo is suspended. Railroad communication has been shut off and the public schools closed.

Los Angeles, April 9. Judge Ross, in the federal circuit court today, rendered a decision in tbe case of W. R. Walb vs. Henry Gecb.

The Creek legation was then removed to Thrapia, S9ven miles from the city. Washington, April 9.

The Becond week of the tariff debate in the senate opened today. Allen, populist, of Nebraska, offered a resolution closing the general debate on tbe tariff OQ June th at 2 o'clock, and that the final vote be taken on Juoe 7th at 2 o'clock. After some consideration the Mexican dollar bill was postponed and Senator tlill delivered an address on the tariff bill. Senator Hill delivered a speech that was chiefly devoted to a bitter attack on the income feature of the Wilson bill, lie criticized the administration for its blunders on the Hawaiian affair. He held that with the growing treasury de ficit and paralyzed industries, this is a bad time for extreme tariff reductions.

He protested, in the name of all the peo pie of New York, against the income tax. No party but the populists pro posed this method of raising funds and the democrats didn't want to be the tail of the populist kite. He preferred indi rect taxation to tariff reform above di- rect taxes and tariff extraction; prefer red taxing foreign rather than home produots. He he would vote for any reas onable tariff bill. Mills' for instance.

He said the failure of tariff revision meant a deieat ot tbe democratic position. Supporters of the income tax ehouid realize that it means the loss of the control of this eeuate and of the next presidency to the democraoy. Nevada CiTT.Cal., April miners from the Harmony Drift Gold mine caused considerable excite ment here last nicht and this morninir. The men quit work yesterday when Superintendent Cowell posted a notice that the mine was not paying operating expenses and that the company had decided to reduce the wages cf all tbe men under ground, except drifters, from $2.50 to $2 a day. Last night it was reported that three Italians and one Swede had gone into the mine at reduced wBges.

The strikers held a meeting in the streets and resolved that no one shold be allowed to work in the mines at lees than the old scale. They then marched to Superintendent Ccweh's house, called him out and extracted a promise from him that he would meet them today. The men then marched to the mine, two miles diBtant, and called upon the foreman to send the four men to the surface. The men came up and said that they were willing to quit work, and did so, running off into the woods. The directors are holding a meeting today and so far there has been no further trouble.

This is a reduction of 1 per cent, in the rate of interest on nearly one and a half million dollars. Salt Lake City, Utah, April 9. In the Industrial army's affairs there is very little change. The territorial authorities are confident that the army will be carried back across the line.

The attorneys for the Union Pacific went before Chief Justice Merritt today and obtained an order on tbe United States marshal to call to bis assistance all necessary aid to protect the property of the company, as it is feared If the co-called Industrial army are not furnished transportation east there will be great destruction af property and probably bloodshed. Pueblo, April 9. Bert Hamilton, captain of tbe Colorado division of Coxey's army, and forty of his followers, were arrested in the railroad yards here today and spent the night in jail. They w.ere released today on cooditicn that they leave town immediately. Fresno, April 11 William Woot-en, a well known and wealthy citizen of Squaw valley, in this county, has disappeared under circumstances that are bo peculiar as to arouse suspicion of foul play and, at the same time, suspicion is throwa upon a man whose character and reputation Btands as fair as' any man's in the country.

Wooten owned about 3,000 acres of land in the foothills of tbe valley. A er selling bait of this last February to Professor Sanders and others, he disappeared and has not been heard from since. Investigation shows that Wooten's land is now in the name of Sanders, who claims he was furnish ed the money with wbioh to buy it by an old friend of his named John Kan ouse. The records show that most of the property was deeded by Wooten to Kanous and by Kanouse to Professor Sanders. No one here has ever seen Kanouse, nor has ever heard of him save through Sanders.
