A Costly Judicial Farce:
As has heretofore been briefly
related eight meu were- thrown
into jail on election day on the
charge of voting illegally. As
the cases have all been disposed
of and the accused men discharg
ed, it is in order to give a short
resume of the proceedings.
One of the accused, W. A.
Deal, against whom the evidence
-was thought to be the strongest,
was tried before Judge Redondo
and discharged. The defendant
was rearrested and the scene
then shifted to Tucson on a writ
of habeas corpus, before Judge
Campbell, Henry Wupperman
appearing as counsel for the de
fendant. Having to attend su
preme court at Phoenix, Judge
Campbell transferred the case to
that city, to be heard the follow
ing Tuesday, November 10- He
sides the district attorney and
sheriff, some ten or twelve wit
nesses were sommoned to appear
at the time set for the hearing.
Not one of these witnesses was
called to testify, but the bunch
had a ride to Phoenix and took
in the Fair at the county's ex
peuse. Judge Campbell remand
ed the case back before Just
ice Sargent at Somerton, and it
-vvas disposed of by him last Sat
urday. Wupperman and Molloy
ably represented the defendant.
After hearing all the evidence
that could be produced by the
district attorney and his assist
ants, Timmons and Ingraham,
Justice Sargent discharged the
prisoner, stating that there was
not a scintilla of evidence sub
mitted that would justify him or
any other justice in holding the
accused for investigation by the
grand jury.
The following day another one
of the accused men was brought
before Justice Redondo and
discharged for want of evidence
to hold him over. There still
remained in custody four men
Tvho had been confined in the
county jail for.tw,elve days with
out a hearing. Judge Redondo
told the district attorney that,
these men must be tried at once,
ana mat n ne naa no otner or
better evidence that had been
produced in the other cases he
would discharge them forthwith.
Thereupon the district attorney
moved that all the remaining
cases be dismissed. The court
entered the order of dismissal
and the men were- freed.
Sequel: The county was mulct
ed to the tune of several hundred
dollars.
In the prosecution of these
cases the district attorney ap
pointed as deputies to assist him
W. P. Timmons, a democrat, and
Fred Ingraham. a socialist, who,
of course, will expect the county
to pay them for their services.
The district attorney lost his
light and was evidently disap
pointed very much so at his
failure to "smite the hand that
led him" and to smirch the party
that had honored him with one
of the most responsible positions
in thecouuty.
And thus ends the biggest
farce ever enacted in any court
in Arizona.
ELECTION OF TAFT STARTS
THE WHEELS OF INDUSTRY
Not two days had elapsed after
the result ef the election was as
certained and after Judge Taft
had announced that no establish
ment in this country had any
thing to fear from his adminis
tration if it did not violate the
law, before the manufacturers
of the United States became aqt
ive. They did the same in 1879
when specie payments had been
resumed, and in 1897 when tht
gold standard had been declared
for. There is but one source of
uneasiness. Will there be a
bona tide revision of the tariff or
Avill there be a mere shuffling of
the schedules without relief to
the overwhelming majority that
now has to buy everything at
enormously highly protected
r:-es?
THE PRESIDENT-ELECT.
Mr. Taft was on Tuesday last
elected President by a great ma
jority. A solid south, with three
or four small states west of the
Mississippi, sustained Mr. Bryan
but the rest, aggregating a; vast
minority, were for Taft and
Therman. The most marked re
turns were from New York City
which gave a majority to the
republican candidates, showing
either trenchery on the part of
Tarn many or that the great money
center discounted in advance any
possible excuse that the stock
manipulators might conjure up
upon which to flurry the mar
ket.
Perhaps Mr. Taft, in educa
tion, experience, training, and
intimate acquaintance with pub
lie affairs, is the 'best equipped
man ever elected President. He
has, withal, a temperament per
fectly 'balanced for the exalted
place. He is calm, deliberate of
judgment, kindly of nature, self-
noised and strong. He ought to
exalt the high office. So trained
a jurist as he will naturally insist
upon obedience to the laws. but
so broad is his patriotism, so
profound his reverence for peace,
that there will be no outbursts
of rage from him, no threats, no
unseemly criticisms in short,
the very opposite to what we
have become accustomed to. He
will be much such a President as
Mr. McKinley, but stronger; his
judgment will be as steady as
was Mr. Harrison's, his nature
as kindly as was Mr. Lincoln's;
His administration ought to draw
the people nearer together arid
invoke a deeper pacriotismamong
them. Goodwin's Weekly.
SEES WOMEN VOTE.
Denver Tost.
B'ev. Anna H. Shaw, president
of the National American Wom
an Suffrage Association, accom
panied by Miss Laura A. Gregg,
a well known public speaker,
Miss Ray Costello and Miss El
inor Rendell, two enthusiastic
and beautiful young English
suffragettes, was in Denver Nov
3rd, for the purpose of seeing
women vote at a national elec
lion, i
The Denver Post sent the
party from polling place to poll
ing place in a huge automobile,
and they witnessed many an in
teresting sight. At one place
where a nervous man fidgeted
uneasily in the line of waiting
voter, a woman ahead of him
courteously exchanged her place
for his. At another, a colored
woman who could not read asked
for help in marking her ballot.
There was no 'laughing or chaff
ing, no flippant remark, but the
assistance was given gravely
and in gocd faith. At another
polling place they saw the oldest
woman voter in the city Mrs.
Richard Sophris, aged 97 walk
proudly in with head erect and
give her name in a clear voice.
'In one of the most fashionable
precincts, where women com
prise 55 per cent of the total
registration, one of the judges
said: "The women always turn
in a heavy vote here and we
have no trouble trying to get
them to do it. They come early
as a rule, and they have their
own ideas about what they are
doing."
Governor-elect Shaffroth of
Colorado has been a staunch
woman suffragist for years, and
the women rejoice in his election,
as they do in that of Judge Lind-
sey, wno ran -on an independent
ticket and is said to have been
elected by the votes of women.
PROHIBITION.
That there is a wave of prohi
bition sweeping the country is
shown in the falling off of the
internal revenue receipts of the
treasury department, and the
government, to say the least, is
surprised. Liquor dealers ex
pected hard times in their trade,
but the internal revenue bureau,
as far as its personnel is con
cerned, is quite independent of
internal revenues. The clerks
of that gigantic office will be
paid whether they collect any
thing or hot. They were not,
therefore, on the loo out and had
no suspicion of the great mone
tary loss that the government
would sustain. A big deficit is
being created in the government
resources and congress will have
to take up the matter at the
coming session and cover the
loss by imposing other revenue
taxes. There was a deficit of
two millions for October, and
large deficits will follow in suc
ceeding months as the prohibi
tion movement spreads. It is
said that distillers and wholesale
liquor dealers have lost so much
already that they cannot stand
anv further taxation and remain
in business. The total loss in
revenues since July has been
seven millions of dollars. The
loss on beers and other ferment
ed liquors in September amount
ed to 1,800,000- There are some
other curious and significant
losses given in the internal reve
nue figures. These losses would
indicate that hundreds of men
nave quit playing cards, because
the government's revenue loss
on cards was over nine thousand
dollars. ' That there is a loss
from this source is nil the more
remarkable when ity'is considered
how many hundreds of thousands
of women have taken to 'bridge.'
The present head' of the nation
keeps himself in excellent phys
ical condition by tennis, horse
back riding, walking and other
manly recreations. He would
have the army and the navy and
everybody else and his wife fol
low his example. Last week,
when he mustered sixty army
officers for a walk, he led them a
chase of about three hours which,
if the facts were known, sent
most of them to bed, and might
have sent some of them to the
hospital. The day of soft, knock
kneed obesity is past, in the
army.
A CLEVER WIFE.,
A well known man in theatri
cal affairs is telling a story on
himself. He does- not wish his
name revealed, as his wife would
not like it. This man is a gour
met of no mean ability and prides
himself on devising new dishes.
This is the story as he told it:
At dinner th& other night at
Romano's they asked me for
something new in the way of
fancy food. When I got home I
told my wife what I ordered.
"First," I said, "1 had an olive
put in a woodcock, then the
woodcock put ?n a pigeon, the
pigeon put in a partridge, the
partridge put in a pheasant,then
tied up with bacon and cooked."
"Well," said my wife, "why
don't you go on and finish?" ,
"That is all. There was no
more.'
"Oh, yes, there was," she, an
swered. "Then you put that in
to a jackass, then put the jack
ass into a cab and told che driver
to bring you here home." '
Prof. Weber's Concert.
An audience not large but sym
pathetic and appreciative assem
bled at the Yuma Theatre last
night and heard some very ex
cellent music provided by Prof.
Fred Weber and his pupils. The
little girls demonstrated the effi
ciency and thoroughness of their
instructor and also gave evidence
of marked musical talent in their
performances.
The piano solos by Professor
Weber were very tine, the ex
pression, technique and execution
being so nearly perfect, as to
thrill and entrance the music
lovers present. He was repeat
edly encored.
Mr. Charles Jones fascinated
and thrilled his listeners with a
vieTin solo full of tenderness and
pathos which were brought out
more skillfully and eloquently
than could be told in mere words.
He plays remarkably well, and
well merited the ovation which
greeted his artistic performance.
But the sensation the aston
ishing surprise of the evening
was the singing of Miss Mary
Gomez. Her Japanese song and
dainty little dance was so well
and gracefully done that the
audience almost lifted the roof
with outbursts of delight. Later
on Miss Gomez sang a pretty
Spanish love song, and scored!
another triumph. She has a)
rather low voice, but of remark- j
able flexibility, purity and sweet-1
ness. Miss Gomez is yet a mere
school girl a child amost. She
has a future in song.
After the musical features
came the wrestlling by Hansen
and Robertson and then the
dance.
