 SUMMARY.
 It is generally supposed that the result is Dibble victory, majority of the dele gates being known to favor his Congression- al aspirations. The delegation was a sop to Contention hill it being understood that the "boys" who had the running of the convention until the delegates were elected were In no way anxious to squander thelr dinero in profitless trip to Phoenix, hence the swallow-tailed members of the party were awarded that empty honor. Dibble, however. has made his point; he worked his wires cleverly, and in spite of clannlsh opposition has come out on top of the pile.
 There is no denying that Contention Hill will have fair representation at Phoenix, but, then, the Southern Pacific charges ten cents mile.
 1.-the Territorial Convention was held at Tombstone there would he very few of the Contention Hill nobs in attendance as delegates.
 The enterprise of the EPITAPH is bound less. We print this morniug the masterly extemporaneous oration of Mayor Carr just as he read it. There is not an 'i' dot ted or 't crossed, but as he prepared it.
 We publish in full this morning the ad- dress of Hon. John Carr, Mayor of Tomb stone, and Chairman of the Republican Central Committee of Cochise County. MT. Carr furnished the EPITAPH with a written copy of his speech, and "copy" was followed closely. The Republican party is the party of moral ideas and prog ress. Don't forget this.
