The Execution Of Isaacs.

T00 GX0CUIlO0 OF x008C0.
Upon another page will be fonnd full
account of the execution of Richard =.
and his confess,on Of his crime; aiso the
details Of the murder, his trial and convic.
ton, and an interview with him by a rep
rsaentaiive of tins paper. In this connec'
tion We will state that the BAzOo ~ In.
debted for m account of the life and con.
f~ssion Of Isaacs to Mr.. J. E. Payne,
editor of the Harrisonville Courier.
The case Of Isaacs sss . peculiar one.
He WA in love with and engaged to a
Young lady, and in order to marry her he
planned and executed hls terrible crime
The reckleesness with which he committed
i. and the entire lack Of all precaution af-
terward. show m almost imbecile mind.
When captured TO fully confessed the deed,
restored The money. insisted upon pleading
guilty, and gladly welcomed death.
His trial, presided over BY Judge Givan,
was fsir and impartial one, and the zen.
tence . just one.
Sheriff Stevens performed his disa.
greeable duty in the most thorough and Ell
cient manner, and preserved good order
throughout the day. In the latter h. wss
ably assisted BY Mayor Cumming of Hsr-
risOnviile.
The punishment cf Isaace followed
quickly upon his crime, 10 it properly
should, in every instance. The l.wIess ele-
ment should be forced to realize that human
life and the rights of others are sacred, and
that murder will be promptly punished ty
the extreme penalty. When this fact il
assured. and rot until then, will life snd
property Be respected.

r T. GENRTY, FOR COUNTY
TREASURER.

The fact that We have not given space 10
IN ;cles and editorials in regard to Mr.. Gen.
Try. and has candidacy for Treasurer Of
Rr,is County. is not owing to any want Of
interest in his snccess, but because We
b ye deemed il insxpedient TO give time and
ep, ce where nothing seem. necessary 10
be ssid or done to insure his triumphant
el ction.
That there Is . clear Democratic ma
10: ;ty O! more than Eve hundred voters in
It's county, cannot now be reasonably
d ub,ed.
And since Mr.. Gentry submitted HE
.: me and claims to the Democrat C County
C..nvention 1t the solicitation Of many
o. the most prominent and influential mem
brs Of the party, and was by the Conven-
q n duly nominated as the candidate OF
tie party 70. the Office of Treasurer. there
o .m. no room for doubt - " his election
raless something can be charged against
i'm that will show him to be either incom.
4 etent to gil the Office. or unworthy Of the
support of the voters Of Pettis county.
VIVA. are the facts about his quslifca
lions aud merits?
Although he has row been candidate
for several month";, not . word has been.
or can be spoken OF written against him,
wen questioning his competency or general
merits.
Mr.. Gentry wse born and raised in this
county and he IL everywhere known and re.
,oscted - one of our most active and in
:.uent,.l Young business men.
For years he has been engaged in the
banking bcsine.r, where he has displayed
and developed unusual ability in keeping
ubCotC oCCO0Uto Suu lu
handling large Gums Of money.
A business man he Is peculiarly fitted
for the Office Of Treasurer, and is admitted
TO be far more competent TO discharge lie
complicated and responsible duties than Is
Lis opponent.
And since his competency is beyond
question, his known intelligence, enter
prise, 5nesty, generosity, fidelity, and
many other manly qualities, should insure
him the cordial support Of every Democrat,
and draw to him the votes Of all others who
can recognize merit. and who do not allow
foclish hate to blind them to what is just
and 10 the best inierests Of the people.
We Predict Mr.. Gentry's election BY a
rnsjority equal to that Of any candidate on
the ticket. and the general superiority Of
the ticket insures the election Of every
man on IL.

THE name of Hon. A. E. Davis

THE name of Hon. A. E. Davis,
for Congress, does not appear at
the head of the SENTINEL, be-
cause this paper has not been
bought and paid for, in that gen.
tleman's interest. We have never
approved of venta"-ing cattle
before the purchase-money was
paid. We note that the other
Territorial papers are branded
with the names of different can
didates; perhaps their money has
been paid. They are trying hard
to earn it; just as an attorney tries
to convince jury in the interest
of his client. In either case truth
seems to be taken into account
in proportion to the size of the
fee.

CAMPBELL came to Yuma and

CAMPBELL came to Yuma and
staid a week or more, soliciting
citizens to vote for him. He
thought it smart" to neglect
his dress and person, and to show
the boys that there is nothing
proud or stuck-up about him.
Clean clothes do not make the
man; neither do dirty ones. But
a Delegate in clean clothes, and
with person otherwise conform
ing to the usages of respectable
society, is more likely to receive
recognition at Washington, and
to secure benefits for his Terri
tory. A Justice of the Peace, a
Public Administrator or a Deputy
County Treasurer may rejoice in
dirty clothing without exciting
comment; especially if his grand
intellect be absorbed in poetry
and "reform;" but we do like to
see common cleanliness in Dele
gate to Congress, the more SO
when we know that he has money
and can afford it.
The Arizona sentinel. [volume] (Arizona City [Yuma], Yuma County, A.T. [Ariz.]) 1872-1911, 1878-10-26

YUMA, through the work of such men
as David Neahr, Capt. Polhamus and
others, gives the vote to Woolsey, there.
fore the working mans candidate is sure
of success.
How is it about those three cheers that
were given after Judge Rush's remarks al
the Campbell meeting? A large number OF
gentlemen, supporters of Mr.. Davis, gave
them. They claim they were for Davis,
and the Enterprise puts them down for
Campbell. AS they were the only cheers
given there can be no mistake in the
premises.
The Great Register of Yavapai has thus
far, 1890 names upon it, and the number
will reach over 3,O00.-Miner.

Warming up to Arizona

The California Journals of most in
fiuence are warming up to our Territory.
The good words they now almost daily
print are worth something ard are bear
ing fruit. They encourage railway build
ers and mining capitalists of better sort.
A few years ago we had hostile Apaches
within and hostile press without. Lieut..
Colonel W. B. Hazen dished up Arizona
ard New Mexico in the press of New York
about 1875 in savage style, and in a tone
which conveyed the idea that he had been
unfortunate in some of his private or
public doings down this way, Mr..
Hagar Of San Francisco, some years ago
was United States Senator, vice Eugene
Casserly, resigned. In February, 1875.
be stood up in the Senate and declared
Arizona and New Mexico barren wastes !;
that this section of country was simply an
arid plain that would not support a duck,
because it had neither grass nor water,
and for other reasons refused to vote for
necessary appropriations for the reserva-
ton Indians in this Territory. 1t was
then apparently popular to belittle and
in every way underrate the natural worth
of Arizona.
Amid and in the face Of all such power
full obstacles, the Territory advanced in
wealth and population on its own merits.
Public school houses and churches have
been built; quartz mills have been erect
ed, and are turning out at the rate OF
$6,000000 annually; the great southern
overland railways locomotives haul palace
and freight cars within our borders
blooded horses, cattle, sheep and hogs
have been introduced in large numbers,
and are thriving; agricultural and horti-
cultural products have wonderfully III
creased; neither last and perhaps not least,
we have an ex-Presidential candidate for
Governor; and the outlook in general
never before has been so encouraging. A
railway will soon be extended 200 or
300 miles across the Territory; new
quartz reduction works are being con-
structed and contracted for that will, when
completed, increase our product of gold
and silver to million dollars each month.
San Francisco, that few years since
would recognize but little merit in mines
outside of Nevada and California, now
grants Arizona's richness and wants to
profit by it.-CitiZen.
The Arizona sentinel. [volume] (Arizona City [Yuma], Yuma County, A.T. [Ariz.]) 1872-1911, 1878-10-26

The bullion product for the month of
August of the Silver King was $50, 900, and
this from ten stamps. The ore is increas-
ing in richness, and when all the mills
in Pioneer district are devoted to crush
ing King ore, that company will be
able to make a showing second to no
silver mine on the Pacific coast. Mr..
Mason, the superintendent, informed
me that it was the intention of the
Company to erect speedily hosting
works at the mine ard to sink the present
working shaft to the depth of one thousand
feet.~ The boiler, engine and machinery
for that purpose are now on the ground.
The record of the Silver King is we'll
known, and I can conscienciousIy certify
from personal observation that the half
has not been told. Success say 1 to every
enterprise which builds up our Territory
and gives employment to the hardy
pioneer.
The whole country from Florence to
McMillenville is filing up with busy,
industrious people who are fast making a
wealthy and prosperous county, and We
feel that henceforward Arizona is to be
known for what she is--the richest mineral
bearing Territory of the United States.
