Honest Democracy.


 Our evening contemporary is en- gagged in an effort to show that the Democratic ticket is not only weak but unsatisfactory to Democrats. This action, on the part of Repub. lican journal, is to be expected, un- der the old adage that "all things are legitimate in politics" The propo :. sition advanced, however, that the candidates chosen by the Democratic convention are too honest to win, is novel in its nature and somersault in logic. It is natural assumption that the people prefer honest officials, but, from Republican standpoint, it would seem that the less honest a man is the better chance he has to win. The latter proposition being an idea of our adversaries, it is safe to expect that the nominees of the approaching Republican convention will not be characterized by honesty. It becomes a matter of speculation then, as to what qualifications are considered by the Republican bosses, as essential to political success, and the subject requires but little thought. The history of the Republican party, during the last nine years, national
 and local, chronicles but little else than official corruption, nepotism, broken promises and the fostering of capital at the expense ot labor. We do not dispute the fact that the par ty was at one time great party, but it has long since outlived its useful ness, and been corrupted by the manipulation of its ambitious leaders, into an organization solely for the benefit of a few jack als, who have for years and are now snarling over dead issues, and gorg- ing themselves at the expense of the people and to the disgrace of the government. The Republican party is run by machinery-not ideas. It derives its susteuance from spells, and keeps alive by an arbitrary use of power derived from those spells. It coerces or buys the poor-and truckles to the rich. As declared by Frank Pixley, in the Argonaut, Git has degenerated, 1t bas no longer a high and honorable purpose to achieve; its most influential and act i've leaders are men who make of politics a profession, who seek off, fees for the money that is in them, or because of the opportunity for plunder." And Pixley has ever been Republican, and was a member of the machine convention which nom- mated Estee as the Republican can didate for Governor of California. His last expression, above quoted, is significant when applied to the ut- terances of the Republican press of Arizona" the Democratic candi- dates of Cochise county cannot win, because they are honest" Truly, the Republicans of this Territory are good disciples of the rules laid down by the leaders of the whole party, especially those of Cochise county. "Within the Republican party there has been organized a ring of professional politicians, who make of politics money-getting industry" says the Argonaut
 Democratic candidates are too hon
 est to win," asserts our contempo- rary. Gladly the Gp1TApu admit: all this, as indisputable. The Dem
 ocracy of Coehise county stands upon its honesty, leaving to the Re
 publicans their preferred dishonesty

tolls to be used couldn't be agreed upon.

were few miles over in Sonora, and
as Purly's party was the first to with
draw from the bloodess field he rises to
explain. The substance of it all is that
Hamilton, as the challenged party un'
der the code had the right of choice OF
weapons, lie chose pistols and brought
pair along with him which he and his
second insisted should be used, PWdy
also brought brace of pistols, suppo,-
ing he would be privileged 10 use one Of
his own, Now, it happened that Ham
ilton's pistols were very hard on the
trigger aud Purdy could not raise the
hammers without using both arms
One of his wrists had lately been shat
tered by an accident and he had little
Use of that hand The agreement was
to fire and keep on firing until one or
both principals were down, and with
Hamiltou'S pistols Purdy would have
been at great disadvantage. Hamil-
ton insisted upon his pistols, and hi,
second said; IF my pistols don't 90
nothing goes Then PurdNs second;
after a consultation with his principal,
proposed to toss up for pistols, but the
Hamilton second would not accept the
proposition, There's nothing for it bu,

And drinking off half himself, he gave the

how he came to spare the life of such rascal.

Farms Fifty Years Ago.

Fifty years ago the farmers depended al.
most wholly on products OF their farms for
the supply of their tables and, largely for
theil clothing. \ writer in the Boston ,J0ur-
nal thus sketches the raising of the raw ma
terial for garments and the process of man
ufacturing them at the farmhouse:
Every farmer kept flock of sheep, and
wool constituted II large proportion of the
clothing of the family. 1t was cardcd, spun
and wove at home. and made into garments
for both sexes. The best clothing for the
men and boys were made of what is called
"tulled cloth" This was made at home, of
the finest material, and taken to the mills
known rs "fulling mills" where it was put
through process of thickening, dyeing and
finishing. The women used to wear gowns
of cloth which was called pressed WOODEN
This was simply homemade flannel, taken to
the mills above named, and pressed, so as 10
present glossy surface.
Every farmer had small patch of flax
This was pulled and spread out in rows on
the ground, "rotted," and then "broken" and
"swingled,' and was thus prepared for the
combing, carding and the little wheel" ms
the machine was called on which flax was
spun, to distinguish it from the larger ma.
chine for spinning wool.
1t was woven into cloth for table covers,
toweling, sheeting and shirting The "tow,"
which was the coarse portion combed out on
the "hetchel," was spun into coarse yarn, of
which cloth was made for summer suits for
the men and boys.
The tow shirt, so commonly worn was
when new, an instrument of torture to the
wearer as it was full of pricklng spines left
from the woody part of the stalk.
