General Hamilton N. Eldridge, Chicago lawyer and an active Democrat, claims to have started the ball rolling at Chicago which resulted in General Garfeld's nomination. He worked on the Williams College men among the delegates and at Chicago and vicin- ity, Democrats as well as Republicans, and after interviewing Senator Conkling and try ing to get him to take Garfield as the Grant candidate he persuaded the Wisconsin dele gation to break for Garfield at the opportune moment. General Eldridge was classmate of Garfield at Williams and although politi- cally opposed they have always been the warmest of friends, and Eldridge thus sums up his estimate of Garfield: sT know what manner of man he is; I know he has the largest and best cultivated brow of any man lever met know he has a physique to support his immense mental power; I know that he has the intellect of a Webster, with the culture of Sumner, the body of a Grant and the breast of woman. All my enthu- siasm of Garfield is an enthusiasm given to a tried and trusted friend I should give it to any such man whether or not he belonged to my church or party, if believed in him.
 If the plan which has been formed for a great musical festival in New York city next May is carried out, as it doubtless will be, lovers of music will have rare treat. The festival is to be given under the auspices of the New York Symphony Society and the New York Oratorio Society, and under the direction of Dr. Leopold Damrosch. There will be ten performances, afternoon and evening, of great choral and orchestral works by the old and modern composers. One thousand selected singers will form the chorus, and 250 of the best instrumentalists in the United States will comprise the orches- tra. The soloists will be selected with great care in this country and Europe. The or ganization of fine chorus is said to be al ready assured by the very many applications of the best material in that line. The re- hearsals will commence early in the fall. The Seventh regiment armory has been secured for the occasion. The capacity of the build ing Is immense, as it is found after measure ment that an audience of nearly ten thousand persons can be seated, besides giving ample room to the 1900 performers. The acoustic qualities of the building have been thorough ly tested and found to be very fine, and the ventilation good. There is no safer building in the world for a festival of this magnitude, as the floor of the auditorium rests on the solid earth and rock, and consequently there can be no breaking through. There are no stairways, the whole floor being on level with the surrounding streets and avenues. A large organ will be built especially to fill the requirements of the festival.

A .Tqsl- TornO~


 The false pretcnses under which the Democracy of Arizona are attempt ing Go elect their candidate for Dele gate were never shown more plainly than in the Star of Sunday morning. Always seizlng every opportunity to strike a blow at the Federal Govern meni. they make the claim that the system of governing the Territories is bad and oppressive, and is due to the Republican Administrations of the last twenty years. Let it be known then. that the Territorial system is the very chIld of the Democratic party, conceived and fostered for the pur- pose of securing slavery in all the newly forming communities; that the organic act of New Mexico was passed in 1850 by the votes of Demo crats in the House and Senate; that II was perpetuajcd through two Demo- cratic administrations. those of Pierce and Buchanan; and that upon the Or- ganiZatiOn of Arizona Territory in 1863 the original act was simply con- jinued in force and made applicable tn the new .Terutory. And again {; the House has been m the hands of the Democrats for four years and the Senate for two, and during all that time Democrats have represented Ari- zOna in the Congress, but not a hand has been Tilted by any Democrat in Congress to change the Territorial system in @ single particular. What ever there is that is wrong in the re- lations existing between the Terri tories and the General Government, must lie at the doors of the Demo- cratic party.

SOUTHERN ARIZONA.
4 Few Extracts from sensible Leter
 in a san Francisco Paper.

X correspondent of the Chronicle, writing from OmbstOne, sends that paper a very sensible letter, from which we take the following extracts ::
 The idea so prevalent in California and the East, that Southern Arizona i, a hot, dry. arid country. evidently had its origin in the reports sent out bv army officers and others whose knOwledge of the county was based upon experience in the northern DOT lion of the Territory, about Fort Yuma and in the Salt River Valley, and who judged the entire Territory from those sections. The truth is, mat Tombstone and lts vicinity pos sess a far pleasauter climate, both in summer and winter, than either the Sacramento or San Joaquin valleys. The atmosphere is, except during the rainy season, very dry making Southern Arizona a per- fect paradise for perluns afflicted with lung or throat troubles. Asthma i' thing unknown. As 10 the otl-repeated stories of rGtttle- snakes. ceutipedes, taran,alas, etc, they are the veriest nonsense. have traVc!ed a circuit Of more than fifty miles around Tombstone, prospecting and sleeping on the ground, and have never vet seen but one specimen or the reptiles referred Go. That they exist in the vicinity there cIU be no doubt but in no greater numbers than in many portions of California that are not considered at ali danger ous on account of their presence.
 That the great mineral resources Of .his country are not understood in California must be taken for fact, when we consider that most of Jhe valuable properties in and about Tombstone are owned and worked by Eastern capitalists That this IS the case is probably due to the fact that California capital is mostly invested in Nevada and Colorado, and Is thus losing the best chance for investment it will see during the present decade. Not only is Tom bstOne District proper vastly richer than the Coms,ock, even in it's palmiest days but many of the outlvlng districts-Muie Pass, Tur- ouoise. Cachise, Gold Belt and others only await the necessary capital to rival, if not surpass in mineral pro- ductiOu this district. Rich strikes are continually going on. In the Mule Pass district, distant about 9 miles, one mine IS turning out about 2O,OOO pounds of copper bullion daily. Other sUelicrs are being erected there and the copper product from this district. will ere long rival, if not surpass, the famous Lake Super for region. h short, many good pros- poets await capital for development. Those who would secure them must come soon.

The Democracy, ID their frantic de- fense of the bullion tax, have taken Co square falsehood by the assertion that if the Act of 1875 should be re- pealed, mining claims would be tax able the same as other property. But the Act of 1875 touches nothing at all but ores, tailiugs and mineral- bearing materials, and says nothing at all about mining claims. The gem eral revenue act, chapter B, Com. piled Laws, page 334, section ,, ex- pressly excludes mining claims from taxation in the following language.

In the Rccorder's Court Monday Asa Willis. alias Chlna Bill" prepare a complaint against a Mr. Stevens for having stolen a pistol from him. Stevens claimed the pistol as his own and described the marks on it. Willis also described some marks which did not coincide with those on the pistol, bur persisted, notwithstanding, in as serung his ownership Co it. < search ing cross s-examiuauon led him into a labyrinth Of contradictions in which he eventually swamped himself. MT. Martinez swore positively that Willis had approached him with view Of making him swear Co the fact that the pistol was Willis, even after Martinez had told him he knew nothing Of the pi-tol. After half days hard work, when the pistol was at last shown Willis, he had to admit that ihe pistol was not his. The prisoner was dis charged and the pistol returned 10 him. or all the inanc and contradic- tory statements ever heard in court. Willis showed a splendid example. We understand that Judge Meyer will lay information against hIm for subGrnation of witnesses before the Grand Jury.
