Club in Ward ;.

Reports from this club are very en-
ronraginS. The people in Ward ; have
gone to work i'll earnest. There is q
discrimination in that Ward to poll
every vote in it for Greeley and Brown
and the united State ticket. We call
upon other portions OF the parish to
follow the example of Ward Iand form
just such an active, working. club as
they formed at Pine Grove. The roll
of the club is constantly increasing, aud
the members manifest an enthusiasm
and energy that arc worthy of imita-
ton.

4 FULL VOTE.

1t Is important to the material in terests of Arizona that full vote be polled next Tuesday. The extent of consideration due B community, es- pecially by law makers, is based upon the extent of its population. The census of 1870 was incomplete at that time, and our population Is larger now than then. But even if the last na- tional census had done Arizona con- plete justice, full vote Is no less i'm portant, for while the census statistics may be overlooked by many, the tables of election returns are examin- ed by all public men who shape pub lie affairs. Nearly all great news paper offices each year publish sta tisiical almanacs, and chief feature of them Is election returns. The next election will be held to have brought out full vote, and these journalistic statisticians and public men will nat urally turn to their handy almanacs for facts upon which to base public action. It has been repeatedly stated in reply to requests for public aid for Arizona that her population does not justify granting them. Now the Ter ritory has chance to show her strength by vote which will sustain the assertion that the late census was incomplete as well as to help all her leading interests. Let that vote be given.
 The vote for Delegate to Congress is the one upon which those abroad more particularly estimate 8 Terri tory's population; and while we hope full and unanimous vote will be given Hon. R. c. Mccormick, we trust if any voters will not vote for him, that they do for man of their choice, so that full vote may appear for that office. This is urged for public and not individual interests Voters should never forget that in casting ballot they are performing @ service beyond that resulting to suc- cessful candidates.

When things don't go to suit you, And the world seems upside down, Don't waste your time in fretting,
 But drive away that frOwn; Since life is ott perpleXing,
 lis much the wiSest plan, To b, ar all trials bravely,
 And smile whene'er you can. Why should you dread tomorrow, And thus despoil to-day For when you borrow trouble,
 You always have to pay. It is a good old maxim,
 Which should be often preached Don't cross the bridge before you, Until the bridge is reached. You might bespared much signing, If you should keep in mind The thought that good and evil
 Are always here combined. There must be something wanting, And though you roll in wealth, You must miss from your casket,
 That precious jewel-health. And though you're strong and steady Ton may have an empty purse And earth has many trials
 Which 1 consider worse But whether joy or sorrow
 Fill up your mortal span, Twill make yOLr pathway brighter, To smile whene'eT you can.

EVERY publisher. no matter what his political tenets may be, will agree with Horace Greeley in the following sensible remarks:
 It Is strange how closely men read the papers. We never say anything that any body don't like but we soon hear of it, and everybody tells us about 1t. If however, we once in 6 while happen to say a good thing, we never hear of that; nobody seems to notice that. We may pay some man a hundred compliments and give him dozen puffs, and he takes it as 8 tribute to his greatness, and never thinks of 1t, never thinks 1t does him any good. But If we happen to say something this man don't like, or something he imagines a reflection on him or bis character, see how quick he flares up and gets mad about 1t.

ON the 11th October, the Indian delegations from the Kiowas, Conan ches, Apaches, and other tribes were presented to President Grant. Among other sensible remarks, the President Is reported as having made the fol- lowing to them:
 The white people are so numerous and increasing so rapidly as to crowd the Indians and therefore 1t WAS neces- sary that the Indians should no more lead a rowing life, but have fixed places of abode. The sooner they un- derstood and valued this fact, the bet ter for them and their children.
