Tombstone Weekly Epitaph from Tombstone, Arizona • Page 4

'rfW 'I-. 1 1 tf DISTURBING PREMONITIONS TO BE LOOKED AFTER The presentations made in the late campaign all over the Union were not reassuring of peace and continued love and trust in our nation. The material progress of our country is at its height; there is no failure anywhere, hut there is a spirit abroad which is but a little removed from anarchy, and a powerful press and some powerful demagogues sre try l. i.J embers into (lame, and the next few years is not reassuring, says Goodwin's Weekly. The effort is to array the poor against the rich and to consolidate every element oi discontent into an overwhelming host.

It looks as though the patriotism of the American people is about to be tested as never before, and meanwhile 300 000 voters, mostly from the least welcome portion of the Uld World, are be ing imported annually. It was said that when Napoleon found the discontent among the people of France becoming dangerous he maneuvered to bring on a war to divert their attention Jrom plots at home. The wisest act the incoming Congress could pass would be one guaranteeing the bonds of two or three railroad companies to build lines in South America, along which the restless spirits in this country would be distributed In addition, a radical revision of our immigration and naturalization laws should be made. "VW quarantine our ports against contagious diseases, though the worst pestilence exausts itself at last, but there is hardly any restriction against admitting the canaille of Southern Europe to our shores and making them cit- izens, though they are thou sands of them mere human fire-brands. A Kentuck'y woman soundly thrashed her husband because he failed to pay his subscription to the county paper after she had given him the money.

The editors of the land should chip in and purchase for her a gold-mounted club to be used upon the brute when occasion demands. Chicago's Bar Association submits proof that the judiciary of the town is, in some instances, about on a par with the sandbaggers, and nobodj seems at all surprised. Not so in Arizona. The Justices of the Arizona Supreme Court are all right. An exchange says: "When you are fighting mad, count a thousand Not on your sweet existence! That would give the other fellow time in which to make his getaway.

The man who talks while others act. Who grnnlt while others do the lifting, Who lounges near while others steer The lffe boat as down the stream we're drifting, Will, when be dies, be laid among The silent ones by active workers Unwept, unhonored and unsung-Ibis fast age has nonse forshirkers. Goodwin' Weakly. Arizona Hay Crop Said to Be Short Liverymen and owners of horses in Arizona should be laying io as Urge a supply ot hay as possible now on account of the threatened scarcity of that'very nerdful commodity througl -out the territory. This statement was made by George Buxton, of the Buxton Smith company el Bisbee, being based, he said, on observation and report receded while on a recent trip to Tucon and Phoenix, the latter especially being the center of the I largest agricultural district in tho ter ntor "From all reports 1 hae received," said Mr.

Buxton to a Bisbee Miner re-porter, will go higher this year than ever before in the history of the territory. This is caused by many things but principally by the fact that a poor crop realized in most portions of Arizona. 'Shipments of hay from the Gila valley have stopped entirely the ranch ers either keeping their prodnct for their own ue or holdinc off for higher prices, and the protpectsare that there will be none com'ng to Bisbee from Phoenix. I do not know the condition of other local dealers, but we find ourselves a good deal incommoded by the sudden scarcity of the principal food of animals." An Arizonan's Opinion on Mining "A man who leaves a country like thi in search of mineral wealth or a busine location in the mining districts of southern California, especially in that section b-rdering on the famous Death Valley, in my opinion, short of being a fool." This was the emphatic statement made by A. Doran, tho nell known mining man, in Pretcott recently.

Mr. Doran has just returned from making an expert examination of a mine in that section of the southwest, and while there had ample opportunity to study the existing conditions. "Conditions there are distressing," he said, "Just think of it for hundreds of miles not a blade of grass is to be seen, with4hay selling at $100 a ton, freight rates by wagon $75 a ton, and water, which cannot be had at times for any price, selling for 7 a barrel. "Without doubt," he continued, "there are certainly some very promising mining properties in the district I visited, but under the existing conditions ore must be of a'i enormously high grade to pay the operating expenses. "Judging from surface indications, there is no question, in my mind, but that the Skiddco mine, located at the foot of the Panamint mountains, is a great property.

Its ores must be of a very high grade to pay the enor mous expenses of operation and transportation. Water is piped fourteen miles, from th mountains to the camp at a great expense, and freight rates to the railroad, across the desert, are enormous, compared ith similar expenses here." Poem Ordered For 0'Neil Monument John S. McGroarty, a Southern Cat ifornia poet of merit and prominence, has lately been called upon to furnish a suitable poem for the Bucky 0Neil Monument committee of Prescott, Arizona; at the invitation of Judge R. E. Sloan, chairman of the committee.

Willi a Methodist preacher for governor, Colorado ought to experience an old-fashioned revival all along the line of mining, the manufacturing and agricultural industries. According -to an Eastern malcontent, the Democratic party has too many "eccentric statesmen But it has "no monopoly on the breed. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Cure- CoMt, Croup and Wbooprar Coczh. Will Defend the Arizona Rangers To defend the Arizona Ranger force again tho attacks that hate been made upon it in some parts of the territory, raptatn Thomas Ryntiing arrhed in Phoenix this morning from Douglas, and will read a papci before uie Arizona uattle Growers' associa tion while they are in session this week. While nning has not actually been placed on the program to speak in defense of the rangers, it is believed th-t he will answer several charges that have been made during tho past two years charges that have come principally from the northern patt of the territory.

Captain Rynnlng stated that he would confine himself mostly to the explanation of the purpose of the ranger force, the good that it does and the reasons why it should be a part of the territory's police system. Globe Again Without Incorporation The "City of Globe" is no more. It mar be again the near future, but at present it is but a memory. One brief month Globe lined up with Tombstone, Tucson, Phoenix, Prescott, Bisbee and Douglas in the municipal clas. One brief month Globe laid claim to a ma) or and a council.

But all is changed now. Globe is merely a section of Gila county. The decision in the case taking from Globe tho proud title of was rendered by Judge Nave. The decision, however, did not create a sensation, for it was thought that there might have been flaw in the incorporation of Globs. Already a petition if being circulated, which is being liberally signed, for the re-incorporation of the town No legal m'ttakes will be made this time and it will be but a short time when Globe will again be a city.

Old Guard House Must Go at Last The old guard house on the lint must go The International says this had already been determined fo som time, but jesterday the arrival then of George Black, spec al treasury agent from El Paso, and Earl Grizzel, of the Nogalcs customs office, settled the fate of the American guard house. Hereafter all business with the cus toms officers will have to be transact cd.at the customs house. Instead of one line rider there will be two and they will make line riding a business. All persons crossing the line any here in the visinity of Douglas will be very likely to run across a lint rider. They will send all persons to the customs house.

Prominent Men To Visit Arizona Senator McCarren, Senator Reynolds, and other prominent New Yorkers are on their way to Phoenix to be the guests for a few days of Hon. I. T. Stoddard, on whose invitation they come. They will go from Phoenix to Mr.

Stoddard's mining property in Yavapai county. Senator Reynolds, who is a paitnerof Mr. Stoddard in his mining projects, is president the Metropolitan Jockey Club of New York: Senator McCarren and his friends will go first to Phoenix and then to Stoddard, where there are immense copper and mining interests. Some of the members of the party are interested in Arizona mines. New Smelter For Globe TheMitchell Miningcampany which came into Globe district less than a mon-h ago, through the purchase of several groups of claims a short dis tance from Globe, haa already decided to erect a smelter for the reduction of the splendid ores on their, various properties.

The Uniform Divorce Law The Uniform Divorce Law names six proper causes for divorce as follows: Infidelity, felony, bigamy, desertion, habitual drunkeness and intolerable cruelty. The various Legislatures of the United States le aiked to agree on the proper period of residence before an application can be made for divorce. Delegates from all sections of the country, including many Governors of States were present at the Philadelphia congress. "Incompatibility of temper" was almost unanimously-voted down as A proper cause for divorce. "Intolerable cruelty" as de fined by the divorce congre means actual physical cruelty.

There can hardly be a doubt that this extension will now go through, as Ool.

Randolph, in an interview given out several weeks ago stated that the road would reach that point. Drillers From Cochise County Rock drilling records will probably suffer today at the fair in the single and double handed contests, when the sturdy Arizona miners mount the rock to compete for loving cups Cochise county furnishes most of the drillers, such well known men as Page brothers, Yockey, Lyons, King, Pickens, Bradshaw, Mclyor, Baggin and others being there. Tom Devine will have charge of the drilling contests.

Arizona Cowboy's Ride for Life The Review savs: "James Kenney has returned to Bisbee Irom Chicago, where he went two weeks ago to un dergo treatment at the Pasteur Institute for the cure of poisoning caused by the bite of a hydrophobia skunk.

He comes back pronounced cured by the doctor of that institution. "Kenney'a escape is looked upon aa a a remarkably fortunateone, from the i fact that he was several miles from medical assistance when he had the encounter with the vicious little pole cat. "Caught miles from the city, out on his cattle ranch, eighteen miles from any doctor, Kenney, with the assist ne, cf a fellow cowpuncher, under- took heroic means to ward off the ef facts of the bite. He hacked his own limb with a knife, using only the roughest bandages made from bits of torn clothing. His ride to this city on a horse, his subsequent treatment by a local physician and his departure for Chicago at his advice, has been re counted hr." From Friday's Deity.

Frank Payla was an outgoing senger this morning for Bisbee brief business visit. pai-on a Mart Moore, one of the pioneer stage drivers of Cochise county, was a Tombstone vUitor tcday from Para dise, where he conducts the Paradise- Rodeo stage line.

The un fortunate lady, who is years of age, carries the hallucination that she is being pursued, and wanders from her home. Her residence is at FaradUe, where her son is in the service of the forest rangers. It is hoped that with medical treatment her mental abbcr-ations may be corrected. Her son accompanied her to Phoenix. Coal is Found Near Winkleman "People around Winkleman are just now as much interested in a recent strike of coal near there as they arc in the work that is being done in any of the big copper and gold mints," said A.

F. Banta to the Phoenix Gazette. Banta is in the city after spending several weeks ia that part of the territory, where he found raining rn thf boom, much eastern capital coming in for development purposes and numerous strikes being made. Eight miles east of Winkleman a vein of two feet of hard coal has been uncovered. But little depth has been gained as yet though the small amount of work done shows that the coal is of a high grade, and is gradually Retting wider.

The owners of the ground have a force of men at work sinking a shaft to determine the extent of their important discovery. Chance For Some Arizona Cow-Boys The El Paso News says El Paso's Postmaster is in receipt of a letter from a blushing maid of Pccksburg, Indiana, who-is lust "sweet sixteen!" She wishes to make the acquaintance of one of Mr. Smith's cow-boy friends and she states she would like her cow boy to be a plain gentleman.

The accident was the result of a premature explosion, six boxes of Giant powder had been loaded into drill holes and while one of the holes was being tamped it is presumed a spark from the steel ignited the charge with the disastrous result stated. Most of the workmen were buried beneath tons of lime, while the two Americans, Victor Shill and Sam Steele, who were tamping the ho'es, were horribly mangled. Bishop Merrill and R. Mackay returned to St.

David today. Both are heayily interested in the irrigation company at St. David, which has sunk an artesian well to a depth of 750 feet. Mr. Mackay drilled the big well, and now proposes to perforate the casing at the water strata.

It is expected that a flow of at least 400 gallons per minute will be recorded. With such a flow the possibilities of the district will have been demon strated and other and larger wells will follow.
