and Laughter" | am astonshed that one of
so fair iamc In poetry as the sweet singer of
passion and Wisconsin, should claim it; re-
member very well when we were soldiers To-
1912, in January, think, that you wrote the
verses alluded TO, or at least something so very
much alike them that would hnye declared
at any time this poem was the. same. have
frequently seen II since, printed anonymously,
and have ii pasted In an old scrap book, and
have oflen shown IL to friends, telling them 1t
wls yours, and that you were my friend In
childhood, manhood, and even to this time,
when your "prow' Is white with the snow OF
years, and mine is above timberline, More
oyer, If 1 had known nothing ofthe authorship
OF Love aud Laughter | would have de-
clared II yours on account of the expressions
in u peculiar TO yourself especially the lines
THE echos bound to a joyful sound and
"Thcr? are none 10 decline your ncetared
wine"
However, to be very candid with you, !
think "Loyo and Laughter Is far behind
many other of your poetic iances which
have seen, and In several of which ] have
been your attendant when the labor of poetic
travail was upon you.
But my dear old boy, don't quarrel with
any one about such things. Life Is too short
and poetry IL too plentiful, aud IL Is withal
the most unmarkctablo article in all the

Secretary Ingalls,, of the Arizona Industrial exposition association, has been granted the privilige from C. A. Burke, director general ot the Worlds exposition at New Orleans, for admit, ting any and all displays made at our territorial fair, if shipped immediately opon its close. This gives exhibitors two weeks further time than is ac.:ord. ed the general public, and is grace full act to the management of the ter ritorial fair.
 Democrats and reformed Republi- cans of Arizona are running man for Congress who brought plenty of mon. ey to Arizona and invested it; who has worked hard with his head and hands; who never fooled farmers; who never tried to injure Prescott by having military headquarters removed to his ranch, by having supplies for the Peck mine brought in by another settlement, or running down another mans mining property. Can suppor- ters of the Republican candidate for Congress say as much for him3 Can they deny these assertions of oursl Not much. All old citizens know them to be true.

was not successful, apd, we dislike tc say it, but duty compels the Courier to remind the people how Col. Bean, in a newspaper of this town commit ted the unpardonable sin (for a citi. zen of YavapaiD of running down mines of Messrs. Cox & Craigue. one of which mines has ever since been a large producer of ore which has been rich enough to pay costs of mining, shipping to Pueblo, etc., and hand. some dividends.
 Our ammunition is not yet exhaust ed, but we will now rest this case and ask sensible readers-Democrats and Republicans--to draw their own con- clusions.

Candidates Compared.

Col. Head came to Arizona fifteen or sixteen years ago, at his own ex- pense. He straightwaY purchased what is now known as the Bank of Arizona property in Prescott; also, the finest brick store and one of the largest supplies of general merchan. Cise in all Arizona. All this, in con- nection with Mir. Jake Marks, now of Phenix, who will corroboaate what we have said. Col. Head soon after visited every section of Arizona, pur- chased grain, -four and all sorts of products from Arizona farmers; paid for these things with good money. He next went into mining, milling and assisting miners. He soon after invested in cattle and horses and has spared neither pains nor expense to give our section better horses and cattle. He is still in the business, as the Herald will admit when it comes to examine specimens of his horses at the Territorial fair. He has often cramped himself in order to assist miners, farmers, sheep raisers, cattle raisers and others; he has rendered valuable assistance in the construction of railroads has given very liberal patronage to Republican and Demo- cratic papers; has always had his printing executed in home offices; is a strong advocate of the building of a north and south railroad; is all the time spending money on improve ment; works hard; treats all men as they deserve to be treated; in word, is model citizen of Arizona.
 This brings us to his opponent for the delegacy, Col. C. c. Bean, whom Republican papers laud to the skies. What has he done for this country and its people1 A Mexican would answer, "Quien sabe," So let it be. The answer is good and true. We really do not know what the Colonel has done for Arizona. Where are the houses he has built1 Where the mines he has developed2 Where the ranges he has stockedl Where the farms he has cultivatedl Echo an. swers, "Where?" He came here, we may say, as assistant chief quarter master to the late Col. Ned Baker; he was very successful as government contractor until in an evil year he fooled the farmers of this county and was by them denounced for all that was mean. He essayed mining and

----------- -------'----------------- Political Amenities.
CANON DIABLo, Oct. I,

EDITOR CHAMpIoN-There are not supposed to be exercised many politi- cal amenities during the heat or bit terness of a political campaign, but the public will at least expect that partisan journalism should not be converted only into vehicle of low blackguardisms of tho lowest kind of ribaldry and shameless abuse and ly- ing, which the press of to-day ex- hibit and which tend only to disgust every honest man. The public record of public man is public property and his acts as such subject to the criti- cism of the people when an aspirant for office Tn their gift; but such jour nals do not reflect the opinions of the intelligent people, they only pander and appeal to the most depraved phases of fallen humanity to the viru- lence of those political Pharisees who proclaim their virtues on the house tops and in the public places forget ting the parable of the Prince of Peace, whose humble followers they pretend to be, Eye that are guiltless cast the first stone"
 It is a hellish device to deface the grave of child with the purpose of bringing disgrace on the mother, and how utterly debased is political hate when such means are used; there is no excuse to offer for the cruel brutality of such deed.
 This vile abuse is no argument, converts none whose conversion is de- sirable and engenders animosities which outlives the causes of them.
 In pleasant contrast to this journal istic vancour Tn national politics we turn to the gentlemanly spirit of our Territorial press with but few excep- lions, in advocating the fitness of ri- val candidates, and as an exhibition of that liberality and good fellowship which distinguishes the true frontiers man, no matter how humble his posi- ton may be, he breathes this large heartedness in the pure and whole some air of his mountain and plain, untramelled by the petty bickerings and jealouses of older communities. Where the party lines are distinctly defined and we'll drawn as in our Ter ritory between the two great parties (with the exception of our aeighbor- ing county of Apache, where it ap- pears to be kind of go-as- you-please or catch as catch-can sort of con- test, and the paradoxiCal association of Independent Reform with Re- publicanism! Our mutual estimable and adipose friend. Col. Reed, has discovered that politics, like misfor- tune, makes strange bedfellows) we can afford to extend each other, aside from our political differences, the Courtesies due man to man. The De- mocracy of the Territory have placed in candidacy representative men in every way qualified and without a fear for the result we leave the issue with the people, confident of favora- ble judgment. And oh our Republi- can brother, take not the fattering unction to your soul that the result of the Ohio election forebodes Demo. cratic defeat; glorious battles have been won after the skirmlsh line has been beaten back on the solid, daunt- less line of battle which our party pre- sents, leading to victory Tn November next.
