Washington, June 13.-The nomination of

wishes of the Arizona people and in opposi-
ton to the frsends of the present Governor,
John z. Heyt, who is said to have given gen

tory by his administration of its affairs. Gov
Hoyt has been nominated for the Governor
ship of Idaho, but it is understood that it was
done without consulting him. In fact his
displacement from his present position is re-
garded as another breach of civil service re-

all his property. He is said to be anxious to

From the Eureka Republican Of June IL.
A new arrival in town was much surprised
this morning to hear Indian Hal swearing like
pirate in excellent English Hal is as wild
looking, ragged and dirty as the most advan-
ced Shoshone. but he knows our language per-
fectly. The stranger got into conversation
with his red brother and began asking ques-
tions about the religious belief of the aborigi-
mes. Hal informed him that they had no
mode of worship that he knew Of No, there
were no Christians among them.
"But." inquired the pious stranger, "don't
any of the savages believe in a hereafter9"
"Ch, yes" answered Hal, eve all believe
in hereafter, but we're not Christians. We
don't kill one another nor hammer hell out OF
our young ones for the love of God.
The inquisitive gentleman looked shocked
and surprised, but didn't ask any more ques-
tons
If we have not already mentioned the fact,
and even if we have, the agreeable fact still
remains that Austin will celebrate Fourth of
July.

WHAT COMES OF NOT LETTING YOUR
LIGHT BE SEEN.

We do not like to quote scripture profanely
nor to make impious adaptations of any say
ingS of the good book; but if there had been
a daily press in Judea in the year One we do
not doubt that the words of the Master,
''Let your light so shine before men that they
may see your good works. would have been
quoted as an authoritative opinion or injunc-
ton setting forth the benefits of liberal adver-
Using. Yesterday we received a letter from
a far-distant State. We herewith present our
readers with copy thereof:

phenomena that there are no lawyers in

they would make their presence known

The esteem in which he has been held, apart from the unfortunate nab it seemed to be ready to return for him in the hearts of many friends. His own dis covery of the enormity of the work of the 'Demon. Alcohol" as on himself. came out in the expression: "At fifty years of age am not the man that I might have been." Truly spoken words were those penitent ones but to them can be added the alleviating fact that the gracious oppor- tunity is ours to retrieve something from the past. Endowed with physical energies of the very highest rank, this strength,

 "1f anything appears in connection with it not exactly agreeable to each one, do not observe it. See all that is good, and stead- lastly cooperate in that" Then very amusingly came in an allusion to something new which attracted his eye in walk. A new sign gave notice of Lemonade and Hot Coffee, at friendly place on one of our streets He never before noticed these articles in juxtaposltion with whisky.
