George Hearst Is monisd man and wei liked by the leading business men of Cali fornis Had he been nominated for Cover nor of that rich and growing State, the O m ney kings could not have stforGed to oppose him. As it IS different however. and a demagogue comes up before the people, with no utilization for any set of men, but ambitious for position and power to rule, he will be met with such formidable batte ries that he has never yet dreamed of, although he be General Stoneman. He op- posed the Railroad people, not because O. any feeling he had to do good to the poor classes, but as blind. always having the GovernoShip of the great State ot Csiifor- nia in his mind. His opposition wes for the purpose of leading people belonging to the laboring classes to believe that he was their champion. Bah, he never meant it. His record is not good; his honesty worse; his ability next to nothing.

Professor Church thinks Arizona as she

Professor Church thinks Arizona, as she is tirst Tn the mineral farming field, should have a seperate building at Denver, and asks of Yavapai county S100 toward the erection of the same. It's good idea, as great many Eastern and Western men who are interested in Arizona mining VII want place for headquarters, where they can write, read and entertain their friends, and interest them in our Territory, by showing them samples of ores from Arizona. We believe this to be god idea, and one that will be productive of great good Only si00 is asked from us, while Cochise and Pima counties each give S200.

Close of School.

Friday afternoon the Prescott Free Acad eIny closed for a vacation which is to las
 until the first Monday in September. The
 primary and intermediate departments met in Miss Merrills room and went through an interesting programme, consisting oi singing, declamations, dialogues, etc, at tho
 close of which Col. c. c. Bean and School Trustee Ei Y. Wells addressed the teach CTS. pupils and assembled guests. After
 which the visitors and a large number of tbe pupils repaired to Professor Martins room up stairs, where rigid examination had bcgn going on for the past three days. Here
 were eyidences sf wonderful impro, enent in penmanship and map drawing, still re- naming on the black boards, and as the eX- aminations were about through and the af- ternoOn was wearing to close, Professor
 Martin decided to close the exercises aud
 invite the several iadies and gentlemen present .p talk, all Of which ma. have heen fun for the takers, but punishment to the
 scholars, who were evidently impatient to be of and enter upon their io!lg anticipated vacation. Gel. Bean was the first to re spond, and delivered very happy aud
 beautiful address on the lessons taught him by the rocks and minerals IL lis prospect
 ing aud mining experiences. Prof. Sher- man, Territorial Superintendent, excused h; mself on the ground that he had 80 often talked to the school that he now preferred to hear others. T. J. Butler being called upon, talked of the difference and methods Of teaching nov and when he was school boy, and expressed amszement at the won derful improvements that have taken place. He gave scnls Dranlples of the methods of teaching in the olden time that seemed ,a interest and amuse the children. Hon. Eli V. Wells vas called for, and bore positive testimony to the efficiency of the methods of teaching in this school, from actual eX- perience, in hs own family, two of whom are pupils, whose progress he has closely watched from week to week, and is more than satisfied with their improvement. !. E. Anderson being called upon, gave the pupils some fatherly advise, and reminded them that at the close of their school days they were only entering uCon the attain Inemt of an education, that in fact their whole lives would be Q continual school, and urged them to try and learn something use ful every day. Rev. Mir. Fowler excused himself from speaking because he knew the scholars were tired, and would rather be Q xcused than listen to anybody talk. Sev- eral ladies weIe called upon. but failed to respond.
 The MINER has SO often spoken Of the efficiency of this school, that even if we had time and space to prolone this notice it would be but to reiterate the good opinion we have always entertained. Su we now bid the school adieu until the next term. Przes were awarded for scholarship, punctl- ality and department to Ned Blake, Joe May Bean and Grant Randall The former two having tied in the iirs. grade and the letter two in the second. each standing at 8n average uf S9 out of possible hundred.

We were in hopes some months since, when the Prescott papers first informed us that Secretary Van Arnan was fixing up that Territorial library, that the Oner- ous work would be completed before the dog days. But the Yuma Sentinel as sures us that the Secretary is still wrest- ling with the public literature af Arizona. The library consists of the revised stat utes. an old spelling book, primer, and tome of enormous volume known to the world as "Tritle on Defective Re quisitions." The Secretary Is no ''slouch,
 but the library business Is evidently the biggest job he ever tackled.--Tucson Star,
 Hasn't the library dwindlcd since 1t left the ''h and a. city. Then it was an important item, now it's of little conse- quence Sour grapes, you know. No, the Secretary is no ''slouch.'

We suggest to the .MINER that it's Ml. Bashford Is too nice man to die young. It is best to reserve him for future elntr- gencies, and let Gosper lead the forlorn hope of the Republican party in the Dele gate race. It Is only forlorn hope at best, and .Gosper can just as well De spared as not Tucson Star.

CHILDREN IN HEAVEN.

For the CHIEF.
CHILDREN IN HEAVEN.
BY GALUS.
Methinks there are children in heaven to-day,
As happy as any sweet mortals can be;
The nearest to Jesus the precious ones stay,
And all his great beauties their loving eyes see.
Their songs are the sweetest, for innocent love
Hath filed ev'ry measure with Jesus good name.
And, through the sweet regions OF Eden adove,
The songs of the children their giadness pro-
claim.
No tears from earth's sorrows there washes their
cheeks,
For Past is all sorrow" the holy ones cry;
OF sin OF temptation no lip ever speaks,
For safe. now. forever, no tempter is nigh.
Oh, could but a glimpse Of yon heaven to-day,
Be caught by the parents SO truly heart-sore,
Methinks that the vision would drive grief
away,
And bring them sweet comfort in the loss they
deplore.

Talmase Arrives in Town-The Labor

NEW YORK, September l6, 1882.
kDiToR CHEZ:
For the great body of our@ people the
simmer holiday is over. The teachers
return to the cares of school and the
preachers to the duties of the pulpit.
The only wonder is how the old time
preachers and teachers lived-they never
got holiday. Schoul was closed on
Thanksgiving afternoon, but there were
extra services at the meeting house, and
you paid for yonr Thanksgiving dinner
by listening to u sermon Il good two
hours and a. half long. How did those
old orthodox saints stand it? How did
their preachin. test the powers Of en-
durance Of their congregation? and yet
they did live toa ripe old age, and neither
of them ever heard of Il summer holiday.
The ministers knowledge of Jerusalem
and Bethlehem were tsrawn exclusively
from the Bible, while the majority of the
congregation only knew of Newport and
Saratoga as geographical facts: where
sick people went to get cured of the
rheumatic and dyspepsia; but healthy
men and women no more thought OF
going there than they did cf going to
China or Japan. But as l remarked, the
summer holiday is over, and the toilers
return to work. The streets have been
crowded by express wagons, loaded with
Saratoga trunks, valses and bandboxes,
and once more the schools are overflow
lug with children who look back regret
fully to the eight or nine weeks that
have passed. As we see those children
go trooping through the streets think
to myself, what costly little articles they
are. We won't say anything abont the
bread and the butter and the candy and
the clothes, nor the housing, nor the
doctors bills when they eat too many
green apples, and get the cholera morbus,
but just to keep those little angels at
school costs us, in this State ten millions
and quarter of dollars, aud the entire
value of our school plant is about thirty
one millions of dollars; so when we look
at them we may we'll exelaim, our dear
children.
Brother Talmage got back to the Tab
crnacle last Sunday, and seemed all the
better for his vacation. 1t is all very
we'll fos the funny man ofthe n. Z. Times
to ridicule brother Talnage's legs, and
voice, and preaching, TT this fact still
remains, that when he gets home he is
one of the biggest guns i'll Brooklyn, aud
Brooklyn is full Of big guns. No man
can be put in the pulpit in his absence
who can fill his place, and u vast majority
of his congregation would just as soon
go without gospel food as listen to any
one else. Brother Beecher will not re-
turn to his church for several weeks, but
rusticating OH his farm at .Peekskill win
no doubt get new inspiration for his fight
against the world, the flesh and the devil.
One of the sensations of the week has
been tie return to the altar of the heroine
Of the Diamond Wedding. It was only a
little while before that event William
Allen Butler had given to the world his
immortal poem of g Nothing to Wear"
when New York was startled with the
report of the Diamond Wedding. Frances
Amelia Bartlett was one Of the loveliest
girls in New York twenty five years ago.

As bllthesome and as airy

AS graceful as whale.)
Her pretty little haiId
Cleans white as ocean s sand;
And gutta percha band
Is clasp'd above her palm.
Her dainty fingers close
And a pretty fist Disclose
Much like country rose-
More like q country ham,
Her voice SO soft and clear
Falls lightly on the air
Dspelllng every fear
Nor solemn grief allows

Methinks l hear it still
tSo very like cow's.l
You may talk about your Grecian,
Your Spanlard or Phoeniclan,
Or larguid-ey'd Bretian,
Behind lattice hid
But yonder dancing river
May cease to flow and qutyar,
But I'll forsake her never
lShe'd whale me if did)

And only can disclose
Her dainty httle noee-

It's far proportions rise,
Between her GImpled eyes,
