 The equal, and steady, and com- plete enforcement of the laws, and the protection of all our citizens in the enjoyment Of all privileges and immunity guaranteed by the Con- stilution, are the first duties of the nation. Applause !
 The dangers of a "Solid South" can only be averted by e faithful performance ofevery promise which the nation has made to the citizen. Applause. The execution of the laws. and the punishment of all those who violate them, are the only safe methods by which an en- during peace can be secured and genuine prosperity established throughout the South. Applause Whatever promises the nation makes the nation must perform. A nation cannot with safety relegate this duty to the States. The ''Solid South'' must be divided by the peaceful agencies of the bellot, and all honest opinions must there find free expession. To this end the honest voter must be protected against terrorism, violence or fraud. [Applause,]
 And we affirm it to be the duty and the purpose of the Republican party to use all legitimate means to restore all the States of this Union to the most perfect harmony which may be possible, and we submit to the practical, sensible people of these United States, to say whether it would not be dangerous to the dearest interests of our country at this time to surrender the adminis- tration of the National Government to party which seeks to over- throw the existing policy under which we are so prosperous, and thus bring distrust and confusion where there is now order, confi- dence, and hope. [Applause.]
 The Republican party, adhering to the principles affirmed by its last national convention of respect for the constitutional rules govern ing appointments to office. adopts the declaration of President Hayes that the reform of the civil-service should be thorough, radical and complete. To this end it demands the cooperation of the legislative with the executive departments of | the Government, and that Congress shall So legislate that fitness, ascer- tained by proper practical tests, shall admit to the public service.

Mining has become an acknowl- edged industry and one that is pro ductive. Here ofore on the part of many, it has been more prospec- tive and speculative than perma- nent. This old fogyish idea has gradually become dispelIed. The era Of discovery has lost it's promi- nence ill the era of production. Mining has been held to answer for ignorant and selfish aims, but now, with better improved methods for the treatment of the more re- iractory ores. and better knowl- edge of the best methods of legii- mately working mines to Q profit, the mining industry of the nation is boldly coming to the front.

 SfPEctfGH

There is one nominee for a Terri torial office about whose fitness for the position and sterling qualities as man, there can be no doubt. We refer 10 Ai. II. Sherman, candidate for Superintendent of Public h. struction. MT. sherman has made a record in Arizona as Superintendent of the Prescott High School of Pres cOtJ for five years, and later as Super intendent of Public Instruction, to which office he was appointed by last Legislature, of which he may well be proud. He is peculiarly adapted to this station in life, having been educated for a teacher and hay ing taught since he was sixteen years of age. Against his opponent, Mir. Cox, we have not a word 10 say. He may be para gOn of amiabiiity and culture, but we do contend that MT. Sherman has shown what he can do, has given ample proof of possessing that peculiar executive talent neces- sary to successfully manage large bodies of children, and knowledge of the correct methods of Impressing facts and lessons upon youthful
 This one reason alone is sufficient 10 make him our choice and earn him our vO1e. 1, was poor policy to drag the question into the political pool. The office is one so distinctly removed from partisan discussion that it seems folly to put up man on either ticket. We have not 10 consider whether the candidate be good republican or a good Democrat but if he be competent for the office. Let the two men run on their merits and Sherman will win. - Globe Chronicle.

SUICIDES.

Evidently suicide is steadily in
creasing in this country especially
in large cities. This is partially
owing, Of course, to the rapid in
crease of population; but, indie.
pendent of that, the tendency to
self.destruction visibly and dispro.
portionately grows. Many persons
think that within few years A.
merca will exceed all lands in this
unfortunate. regard, and Others, in
deed, hold that ithas already reach.
ed the unhappy distinction.
Whether it has or not cannot be
positively ascertained, owing to the
manner of collecting statistics in
the United States. There are caus.
es why suicide should be commoner
here than in Europe; notably, the
higher nervous organization of the
people: the greater changes of cir.
umstances, the more general procli-
witty to speculation, and the larger
lack Of permanent conditions.
Race, climate, country, and social
environment have much to do with
self.murder, which has unquestion.
ably been stimulated by modern
civilization, particularly by the in
tensity, artifciality and feverishness
Of contemporaneous life. Statistics
gathered years ago indicated that
in Sweden there was / suicide an.
nually to every 92,375 inhabitants;
in Russia, 1 to "a, 246; in the Unit
ed States, ! to Is, 900; in Saxony, 1
to 8, 446. Our proportion would now
no doubt be very much larger. In

suicide annually in every $1,000 cit
liens; in London and st. Peters.
