 The Globe Chronicle has the fol lowing on the Tonto Basin trade:
 "We recognize it as altogether commendable in our neighbor jour- nals of Phoenix to use every legiti- mate means in building up business for their town; but we think they are little ''of' when they publish that the people of the upper Salt River country can buy more for $50 in Phoenix than for SI00 in Globe The HERALD uses this exact language in urging the i'm portance of constructing Q road over the Reno Mountains. which, when made, 1t is hoped will turn the trade of all this section from Globe to PhGn;x. This streach of coun- ry-from the mouth of Tonto Greek to the headwaters of Salt River-is described as one mass of farms and stcckranges. The trade of these people is no ineonsid- erabie item, and we refer to the matter that our merchants may be on the alert and not let it slip from their grasp. In a few weeks there will be rail connection with the East, by the southern route, and Globe merchants will have such advantages over those of Phoenix considering accessibility of the two places-as to offer the people of Upper Salt River the most satisfactory bargains. The Globe merchants should keep an eye on all tue Territory that is naturally tributary to this place, and make it to the interest of the people to trade here.
 Since the above was in put in type, we learn from a resident of this place, who is in Q condition to know whereof he speaks that goods are not only sold cheaper in Globe than in Phoenix, but at lower prices than any fov, in Arizora not or the railroad"
 Of course it is the duty of newspaper to advance the interests of tine town in which it Is situated, but the Chronicle is wrong for the HERALD got it's information from a very trustworthy source.

The following article on cotton
 growing in Southern California.
 from the Stockton Independent,
 will prove interesting to onr read
 CTS, and is an example worthy O.
 imitation by the farmers in tLis
 valley:
 Several years ago, Col Strong
 very satisfactorily demonstrated
 the fact that cotton-growipg could
 be proftaJly pursued in this State.
 His experiments were confined to
 Merced and Fresno counties. The
 Buckley Brothers planted cotton on
 Iiniled scal,. with fair success. at sHopeton. in Merced, but their effort was merely an experiment to as certain whether or not the soil and
 climate in that locality were adopted to the growth of the plant. and not with any view cf devoting their time and energies permanently to the pursuit. Colonel Strong had followed the bui mess fer years in the Southern States, and there fore his experiments were conducted with intelligence and skill derived from practical experience. H. knew what to do and how lo do it, and the result vas 3 perfect ly sst factory proof that cottcn-growing could be safely enumerated in tie catalogue of profitable productive industries h California. The ex- ample set by Colonel Strong has found followers. Haggin & Carr, wh0 have invested a large capital in tue construction of irrigasing canals in Kern county, have made an encouraging venture in the same direction, The quantity and quail ity of the yield this year have ex- ceeded expectations and been suf- fc;ently encouraging to induce these gentlemen to make a more extensive venture next season. They propose to pIant not less than a thousand acres. From the ex- perimental fields about sixty thou sand pounds have already been gathered. and it is expected that picking on the Belle View ranch will continue for at least a month to come. Itis asserted that the crop is better than the average in the Southern States, and the qual- ity of the staple will bear favorable comparison with the best in the Southern plantations. The cotton now being gathered was grown on the poorest soil in Kern Valley apd 1 under rather unfavorable conditionr. hence it is concluded that cotton l raising can, with every reasonable ! assurance of success. become an extensive and important industry in Kern Valley and throughout large area of Southern San Joaquin.

MUSIC


 ED.

Now to my Certain knowl- edge there are gentlemen in this town who arc now members of the Knights of Pythias, 9rhO during tue months Of August and September, were urging Mr. Kelly to orgaSizc q band for dsncing purposes, and who promised if he did get up band that they would give him their support and that he wouli get all the playing to do. With that en- couragement Sfr. Kelly sends to San Francisco, at q 2 eat deal of trouble and expense to the band (nind, the band alone, no outSiSe help at alb and got the instruments, and then deyCtes his time, night after night, 10 study and practice in order ta be ready for the dancing season. Yet, sf CT all thls trouble and money, certain Orders or Ladges in this .wn send l6 mil .~ fer ther music (which b. the way evcTyb, dy in town Knows 10 he fhe poorest music in the valleY) ralber than employ home talent.

of as many years experience as Col. Dan al

JOHN II. OBERLY.

Mr.. Obcrly is candidate for secretary
of state. He ought to be elected. He is
worthy and well qualified. But that is not
al. HIS opponent is not in sympathy with
the mass Of the people, who expect to cd
ucate their children at the public schools.
BY a singular combination Of circumstances
Oberly, the friend and champion of free
schools, is opposed by Dement,, the enemy
of our present public school system.
If the people have time to give the mat
ter their attention, they will elect Oberly,
and read lecture to Dement, that he will
not soon forget
We intend that our readers shall not
vote for Dement, without first knowing HIS
record.

NO POLITICS.

We do not like the old mosaic law that
"sins of the father shall be visited on the
Children" ETC. etc, and when the sins OF
some others father is put upon The Bull
IETIN it is especially Objectionable. We are
led to these few remarks by having copy
Of the old Cairo Democrat drawn on us yes
terday to prove that we were not always of
the opinion, that politics should not enter
into municipal and county elections, though
why it should not inst as well have been
the old Cairo Gazette or the Times or the
War Eagle or the Olive Branch or any
other of the old Cairo papers, we cannot
understand.
THE BULLETIN, for years. ever since the
present management Of the paper has been
connected with it, has practiced what it
now breaches.
If the editor of the News had been here
long enough to vote, he would know that
THE BULLETIN openly stated that it would
not support straight dem
ocratc ticket for the county
Offices against Independent candidates,
and if he had lived here as many years as
he has weeks, he would appreciate how
fimsy is the charge that the Independent IS
the democratic ticket or THE BULLETIN
would not support it. He would remem-
Der that THE BULLETIN labored with all Its
might to elect Jno, NJ. Lansden a repubh-
can, mayor over his opponent who was an
old citizen and life long democrat. He
would remember that IN all contests for
years past The BULLETIN has stood as it
stands now in opposition to the introduction
Of straight-ticket-poltics in municipal or
county affairs and has supported, as it does
now support, the best men. In tins race
the peoples candidates are the best men for
the position they seek to fill, and Novem-
Der will show that the majority of the
the voters OF Alexander county think and
vote with THE BULLETIN.

THE REPUBLICAN RALLY.

The meeting last night was very cred
table affair, and the speakers were as fair
in their statements as could have been ex-
pccted under the circumstances, consider
ing the weakness Of the cause they repre-
sent, and the fraud and corruption in their
party that must be covered up by the cry
of stop thief The gathering at the
speakers stand was large, but not so large
as it should have beer when we remember
to what extent the meeting had been ad-
vertised, the scope of country, in three
states, that WAS secured to make the rally
success, and the great republican lights
of the state that were brought together
here that the attraction might be as great
as possible.
The greater portion of the white people
at the meeting were democrats who gath
cred there, not to listen to stale and cx-
ploded charges and denunciatons of
their party, but ont OF curl
osity to see his Eycellency Governor
Cullom, and such men as General Hurlbut
and Colonel Carr.
The committee was most fortunate in
their choice of day. The weather. al
though dark and stormy in the morning,
cleared up fair and pleasant before noon,
and pleasantcr evening for an outdoor
meeting could not have been wished for
We can only account for this propitiousness
on the part OF the weather, on the ground
that the giver Of all good things, knowing
that in November will come "thc winter OF
their discomfort" to the Republican party,
is willing to favor them little before the
election.
In the torch light procession the coored
men stepped noby to the front and out
