IT Is rather humiliatinG after a classi cal and sensible orator has been compli- mented Tor a successful leading of his party through the threatened storms of a heated political primary election, to have some taoughtless member rise in his place and move that the honors be shared with another classical @ speaker of the same body. A few grams ot salt may season the broth to good taste, but when the contents of an entire salt eel lar Is turned iu, 1t renders the liquid rather baacl,ish. Don't you think SO, Mir. Browdar?

THE office of Supervisor is par ex- cellence the most important Of any in the county, although held as one of the humblest. It is the foundation of all political structure ot the nation; when its affairs are properly conducted every thing prnspers. and when it's business is neglected all the people suffer IL was a good selection by the county con vention, when they placed in nom.na- tion J. 5. Mansfield, Dr. J. c. Handy and Geo. W. Teitsworth. MT. Mans'eld is one of the old pioneers; Dr. Handy IS likewise an old timer, and NIT. Tei;s- worth is sagacious and prosperous mining man.

TIE Arizona Miner published at the home of c. P. Head, has the following to say: c. r. Head has been nominated for Congress on the Democratic ticket. In nominating him the party has been true to the preference it has ever shown in the selection of it's candidates-tbat is to pass over true worth for man who wraps the drapery of dignity around him and strives to assume the aristocrat. Head is an icicle, though his complexion may be fiery, and the masses of the people of Northern Ari- zona know him only as such. Does the dude Democracy that nominated him expect that men whom he has in his supercillious wey ignored for years will wax enthusiastic over his nomination. and the opportunity to play the lick spittle in supporting him?

r. ". RIsLET,

Another of the Republican nominees for the Assembly, was born in New Hs- ven, Connecticut, in 1853; received his education in Knox College, Galesburg, Illinois; in 1874 followed the advice of Horace Greeley and came west to Cali fornia, of which State he was a resident for four years. Tn 1878 he cast in his fortunes with the pioneers of Arizona, having received the appointment of court reporter from Judge Silent, who was then upon the bench in the Third District, Prescott, which position he held for about year, at the expiration of which time he made a flying visit to Tucson and never returned to Prescott, believing then, as now, that this a. and h. pueblo is the center of the strongest growth in the Territory. He has con- tinuously held the appointment of sten- ographer of the First District till the present year. Although holding c cer- tifcate ot admission to the bar of the Supreme Court, he has not engaged in active practice, his other bus.ness occu- pyIng too fully his time. For the past three years he has given his att antion to cattle and now has a fine ranch in the Santa Ritas. MT. Risley IS a young man well known to the community for his promptitude. thorough business habits and uprightness. He Is positive in his opinions and fearless in asserting and defending them. No better or more well known man can be presented for the suffrages of Pima county, and for him We are confident the Republicans and many Democrats will give their support, and We predict he will be elec-
 ted by a large and most gratifying ma jority.

TIE project of a north and south rail
 road in Arizona is attracting the atten-
 tion of the people through the route 1t will necessarily take. The voice of the
 press is a unit upon the subject, and the
 enterprising and progressive people rec ognize its necessity and express g will
 ingneSs to assist n building such a
 road. In speaking of north anl south
 railroad the Prescott Courier say s: "An classes of people iu this Territcry ap-
 pear to be in favor Of seeing a railroad from the A. P. to towns in central and southern Arizona constructed at as early day as possible. Such q road would make the people of our vast Territory more homogeneous. It would quicken trade, aid in utilizing vast resources and put an end to everything in the shapeot sectional jealousles. True Arizonans should, as the saying is, "know no south, no north, no east, no west" Ours is glorious Territory and will soon be a noble State, teeming with large and busy population, who will be employed in various industries. The north can supply the south with coal. lumber, fat beeves, mutton, etc, while from the south will come fruit of all kinds, flour. grain, cultivated hay and other products of that section. In summer, people from the sunny south will come here to escape the heat; in winter. well-to-do | people of the north will seek the warm l valleys of the Salt, Gila, Santa Cruz San PedIo and other rivers. These changes will be beneficial in more ways than one, and the Courier sincerely | hopes that ether papers will keep on seconding its efforts in behalf of the road"

\ Great Demonstration At Mfnne-
 apolis.
 MINNEAPOLIS, Minn, July 23.-The grand parade of the Grand Army of the Republi. was delayed in forming, but when in motion was received with tremendous cheers by sixty thousand people who thronged the line of march. It was the largest demonstration since the war. The weather was fair, but sultry. The candidates for grand commander are Messrs. Carnahan of Illinois, Warner of Missouri, Kountz of Ohio, Burst of Illinois and Anderson of Kansas. General Sherman is being urged to accept the nomination., but is disinclined to accept the honor He could be nominated by exclamation if he desired it. As the parade passed the City Hall children on canopied platform waved banners and sang an old war song which the veterans in line took up. As the tattered battle flags were recognized by the old veterans they were greeted with wild cries of delight. The enthusiasm was never equalled here and the demonstration is the greatest of any ever wit messed in the Northwest.
 This has been the greatest day in the histo- " of Minneapolis and the display has been perhaps the greatest one of the kind that the country has ever seen. The streets were crowded all day. It was II o'clock before the gun which was the signal for the process sion to start fired. Then the excitement began and the maimed and yearworn veterans passed through the streets with their ragged flags and old uniforms. The procession took one hour and half to pass given point Much enthusiasm prevailed, particularly when General Logan or General Sherman was recognized The former rode on horse back with theIllinois delegation. Sherman rode in a carriage with the Missouri delegation It is estimated that 2000 people viewed the procession. At the reception to- night General Rosser, the ex-Confederate, responded to the toast "The Blue and Gray'' amid much cheering and applause. The delegates will meet tomorrow to select the next grand commander, with the chances be- tween Generals Sherman and Kountze of Ohio, and Carnahan of Indiana

THE LATEST COMET.
Very Indistinct One That Is Hurry
 ing South.


 WASHINGTON, July 23-Prof Frisby, of the Naval observatory, sighted last night the new comet recently discovered by Nashville astronomer. He says of the discovery: ''It looks more like nebula than comet, being round in appearance, rather spread out and very indistinct. But it's motion proclaims it in all probability comet. did not see it until late, and it was visible only about an hour. Its position seems to indicate pos itively that it is the comet seen by MT. Barn ard. Since seen at Nashville it has moved 14 minutes south and minutes to the east ward, the direction it was reported to be taking. It is now in right ascension 15 hours 45 minutes; south declination 27' 34 I fail to connect it with any previous comet It is certainly not Tuttle's, the one astrono- mers have been expecting; but of course I cannot give you anything very definite from last nights observation. As it is moving south it cannot be seen here much longer It is not and will not be visible except through @ telescope"
