THE Territorial campaign is run ming along quietly but firmly. From present appearances it will be one- sided contest, as the Republicans have about given sp the hope of de- feating Mir. Oury. His solid, indus- trious work for the benefit of the Territory during his Congressional term has been recognized everywhere and many Republicans will sustain him with their votes. The Republi- cans are at sea, and can scarcely prevail upon any prominent member of the party to make fgure-head of himself to maintain Republican or- ganization.

THE scheme to make General Grant the Republican candidate for Governor of New York is assuming definite shape. The Conkling and Arthur factions of the party, known as the straight Stalwarts, have re- belled against Cornell and are trot- ting out the old man to make con- test against the present Governor. It will be very interesting fight, being, of course, forerunner to the Presi- dential battle of 1884. If Grant should be nominated, it would fresh- en him up wonderfully for the big national fight, and make things generally interesting. In the mean time the Democrats and Tammany Hall are trying to amalga- mate, and pull In the same traces, with Abram s. Hewitt or Roswell P. Flower as thelr gubernatorial candidate. If such union could be effected, there is no denying the ability of the Democrats to carry the State by 30,O00 majority. This would leave Grant in a worse fix than he found himself after the Chi. cago convention, as defeated candi- dates do not carry much prestige Tn their train.

THE prosperity of Arizona, and the general desire for the rapid de- velopment of our great mining re. sources, demand that all questionable efforts directed against legitimate enterprises be condemned by public opinion. While, of course, it is not within the province of a public jour- nal to interfere with free admins. tration of justice, so far as ordinary litigation is concerned, still it is un- doubtedly it's duty to closely scrutin- ize all actions having tendency to ipjure a community. Conservative men, of all shades of opinion, have we'll grounded belief that the suit recently instituted against the Grand Central Mining Company is not only absolutely devoid of merit, but is the forcrunner of what may become a dangerous precedent. We do not go as far as some, in declaring the action to be an attempt at blackmail, for the reason that such an assertion would be direct attack upon the personal characters of the counsel for the plaintiff. We assume simply that the attorneys in the case have been deceived by the designing fa- ther of criminal, who has probably brought the suit as desperate expe- dient in behalf of the liberation of his son, from the penitentiary. The long delay in bringing the action, the improbable story constituting the basis of the complaint, the color of crime overshadowing all, and the magnitude of the stake aimed at, all go to show the claim to be as falla- cious as it is romantic. The effect of the suit, upon the prosperity of the Grand Central company, may be damaging in the extreme, in causing a depression in the value of its stock, and deferripg investment. AS the welfare of Cochise county in general, and of Tombstone in particular, de- p.ends upon complete and perfec, protection of mining industry, it can be readily seen how necessary it is that the people of this community should frown down this fictitious but dangerous attack upon one of the soundest mining enterprises in the Territory. Of course, no one be. lieves that anything will come of the suit, except temporary expense and annoyance to the Grand Central Com. pany, but the principle involved should be sustained by an expression of public opinion, so earnest that this effort to injure and retard our pros perity will be strangled in its in fancy.

CONTINENTAL TAEFY.

We find the following suggestive paragraph going the rounds Of the press for the past few weeks;
 "Happersberger has been awarded the first prize for design for the Garfield monument. The design in- cludes pedestal raised on the base of a gently ascending steps. On these is a seated figure in bronze of America, leaning on a sword and showing sorrow in her face and posi- tion. The sides of the pedestral hold eagles, the first guarding the emblem of war and commerce, and the second watching over the flag and shield of the country. Surmounting the pedi- ment is a bronze statue of Garfield ten feet in height, firmly poised, and to which have been given both dig nity and likeness. The inscription on the pedestal is: James Abraham Garfield. Strangulatus pro Republi- ca."
 The inscription on the pedestal is no doubt artistic. Happersberger got prize for the design, and that settles the artistic part of it. There is no art critic in this shop. Any thing of that kind is too high for us- and we don't climb high enough to catch on to it. .Strangled for the Republic seems to be what is meant. That does not sound very nice, still it may have nice sound to the truly refined ear. But it cannot be considered poetic, for one of the three essentials of poetry, according to Wilhelm Schlaegel, is truth. "Strangled for the Republic" may possess sufficient imagination and pathos, the two other poetic essentials, according 10 the learned German critics idea, but if the expression be not true it is un- poetic. Even without the aid of the great Schlaegel, however, it might be safe enough to depend upon our five senses and jump at the conclusion that there is no poetic charm in being strangled for the Republic, or for anything else. But the fact of the business is, Garfield did not die of strangulation, or, to put it more mild ly, out of veneration for the memory of the illustrious dead, he dld not "heave up his last sigh" for the Re- public. He was shot. He was assassinated by crank, not because he was President of the United States, and that through him the assassin had designs upon the Republic. To presume this would require a vivid imagination indeed. The judges have said that Guiteau was not crazy; hence his removal of the President could not have been inspired" His death oc- cured when he was not fighting any battle for the country or engaged in special public duty. Since Guiteau was sane when he fired the shot, the conclusion is. unavoidable that he fired to kill personal enemy, one whom he hated because he could get no appointment from him, and whose death he thought would be pleasing to the stalwart wing of the Republi- can party. Anybody, from President Arthur down to justice of the peace, is liable to be strangled for the Republic" in the same way. There is whole lot of rot and hog wash thrown onto monuments that would be more pleasing to the eye if left blank or inscribed with the un- varnished truth only.

ITALY has been invited toco-operate in the protection of the Suez canal, but it is supposed that she will de- cline to act with the other powers, on the ground that she does not want to be involved in the quarrel. But whatever the action of Italy may be, the fact is apparent that Germany and Austria will allow England and France to subdue Arbai Pasha; but after the victory has been obtained by these powers, Germany, Austria, Russia, and perhaps Italy, will step in and reap the benefits of the vic- tory. The powers are not actuated by sense of justice to one another, but their own personal interest. Hence it is easy to infer that new complications will arise, and the crossing of swords by the powers is within easy range of the possibilities of the near future. There is no doubt but that the Egyptians will be con- quered, but after the victory, what?
