Mr. Head the Democratic candidate
 Tor delegate to Congress IS unknown to
 Inc people Of southern Arizona, save to
 lew old timers. This fact is rather to
 MT. Heads advantage than otherwise, Tor where he Is best known he will re. ceIve the fewest number of votes. owing to his repulsive manner, Gis overwbelm- ing and lofty estimation of himself. and the comparatively low estimate that he places upou all others. He is n cold blocded austere man who does not aihhate with the common people whom he has TO use for and will not notice unless he has favors to ask of them. He IS an iclcle in the rough-so formed by nature and strengthened by the habits of bis whole life. He is an ordinary village merchant possessing ncre of those qualities of either heart or mI-d so essential and necessary in q nan who aspires to represent and in- teiligent people and growing Territory like Arizona. Indeed it is believed by those who know him best that he would not prove one whit better representative than Grant Oury, who to say the least had warm heart, and such c just ap- preeiIiion Of his friends that they stood b.,r1in evs2 after they kre- nlat he was not caDalIe of filing he office.

C c. BEAN.

The name oi c. c. Bean is familiar 10 every cd AriZonan, az well as to a large number of those who have come m of late years. He has done more to develop the mining interests of northern Ari- zora than sny other man in that section of tue Territory. Not only this, but he has helped others who were less for;u- nate to develop their mInes, and the number of spoctors whom he has sent on their way rejoicing are legion. Possessing warm heart and q bound less faith in the mineral wealth of the Territory, he never hesitsted to put his hand down in his pocket and help the poor prosUector to a grub stake and i'll him with good cheer and bright hopes for the future. But MT. Beans good qualities do not stop with being whole souled, generous man. He is an able, persevering, energetic man, a fluent speaker, fully qualified 10 fill the re- sponsible position Of Delegate to Con- gress with honor to himself and credit to the Territory.

TIE Star of this morning regrets the disgraceful proceedings of the Repub- lican primary" which it thinks twas a lesson to the thinking and fair minded men of Tucson, irrespective of party afEIiation." Now the Star need not shed ar.y tears over the Republican primary, as the Republicans are well pleased with it's action. The Star is very busy inst now in calling attention 10 the de- nlorable action of the Republican pri- mary. This pretended hunt for a nig- ger in the wood pile, in the Republican primay is simply to divert the attention of the public for the time being, so that Boss Parker and Boss Strauss may get their work in on the Democrats. The Star is certainly excusable in trying to throw a cloak over the action of these Bosses, who as fully controlled the Democratic primary last Wednesday evening as John Kelly ever did that of Tammany. Even Mir. Hughes himself owes his seat m the coming convention to Parker and Strauss, and he will have to vote as they dictate. The nomina- tions made by the Republicans will re ceiye the full vote of the party, and a large proportion of the votes of "the thinking and fair-minded people or Tucson, irrespective of party afhiia- tions."

Times are hard, and we would advise Democrats to hold on to their coin, for their contri- buttons cannot save their party from overwhelming and ignominious defeat this fall, even were they to escape the pockets of the "party managers, which is not very likely to happen.

 THE Star asks the question if 'it would not be well for both Democratic and Republican central committees to select some place for out door public meetings, and both contribute jointly to the erection of platform and seats" The suggestion is a good one so far as it goes. add to the suggestion joint discussion between some ot the leading candidates, and the CITIzES-ard we have no doubt the Republican com mittee-wIll second the motion. The CITIZEN would suggest that the campaign be opened with a discussion by our candidates for Joint Councilmen, c. c. Stephens md Fred G. Hughes. We have no doubt that H. G. Rollins will accommodate any Democrat who may be nominated for the Legislature by the Democrats with little talk before the people. Come out with your best men and let us see how they will stand up before the people.

TIE Star. anticipating tine defeat oi the Democratic candidates, is attempt ing to prepare the public mind for the cry of ''fraud" that will be raised by the disappo inied on the day following disaster, and in doing so seriously re- fleets upon the integrity of it's own sup porters. In a recent issue 1t said {: "TheTe IS a good time coming. and you be: the boys won't be bought" from which it would seem that the "boys' of the Democratic party have heretofore been fir sale. and have been bought. It is bad enough to iusinuate votes are purchasable at all, but to publish the assertion that the purchasable voters are members Of it's own party IS a reflec- ton which even the Star ought to be ashamed of, and which Democrats ought to resent, as no doubt many [ them will, by honestly supporting the Republican candidates on the day of election.

 JOHN ]. GEGHAS, secretary of the Ma tional Irish-Anerican Association, who lives in Cincinnati, estimates that not less tan from 12,0O0 to J5,OOO Irish Americans in Ohio, who have hitherto voted the Democratic ticket, will vote for Blaine and Logan, and thinks the vote may reach 25,0O0. The intelligent Irish-Americans look upon Grover Cleveland as an enemy to the poor man, and they are opposed to him. Every act ol his brief official life has been op- posed 10 the interest of the poor man, but inc rich mans interest is carefully guarded. The day for Irish-Americans blindly voting the Democratic ticket has passed. In future there will be a division of the Irish vote, as there has always been in the vote of other nation alities, and the Democratic party, which has always largely depended upon the Irish vote for their support, will have it no longer.

SENATOR BAYAHD in closing his Brooklyn speech says of Cleveland: 'As a son and brother he has done his duty: as a citizen he has done his duty; as mayer Of BGhalo he has done his duty; as a governor Of the State of New York he has done his duty. and, God willing, as President of the United States he will do his duty The Senator might have added further that, 'as a neighbar he did his duty"-that Is to his married neighbors whom he shielded from their assOcIations with Maria. But We Lave DO idea that God will have anything to do with a man who pays SD little attention to his com manimeats. Gods sympathies are in all probability with the widow.

In preparing his election proclama- ton Governor Tritle encountered snsg which, although of no great importance, shows the ucOrrectncEs of our Terri turial statutes, even iu SO important matter as county officials. Section ] cs Chapter I|, of the compiled laws pro- vides that, "TWO cor0uers shall be elected for each of the organized coun- ties of this Territory, while Section l of Chapter LXXlII provides there shall be elected in each organized county 0f tl-s Territory a public admins tr-tOr, who shall be eZ-oiIiciO coroner in and for bis county. Whether this act was intended to repeal the pro visions Of Chapter " is a question on which the best legal nights at the capital are exceedingly iU d1Bbt, and as 1t has never been passed on by any competent tribunal, tbe Governor compromised the matter by directing the election of both a coroner ani public administrator, which will virtually Hereafter give each county two cOroEers, and which also makes the office of pu0lc administrator entirely distinct and separate from that of coroner, although both have been heretofore regarded as one, and so placed Ou the election tickets.

lS speaking of the Democratic lead CTS of Pima county, the Star says: "Strauss is trump if you stroke his fur the right way" Yes, and the Star might have added that he was ably sec onded by MT. Parker, his old compan- ion and First Lieutenant in the admin istraiion of city affairs. These two gentlemen, who have done So much to place the city in its present fluent financial condition, are now ready to lead the Democratic party on to victory Tn the county and place its financial standing on par with the city. Are the good Democrats of Pima county ready to follow the lead of ex-Mayor Strauss and ex-Councilm'n Parker in the coming campaign? It does look as though Strauss was trump and that Parker held a full hand.

"THE question has been asked" says the Star, "what has Bob Paul done to entitle him to keep the fat office of Sheriff" The Star may formulate such a question, but the people already know what Bob Panl has done to entiIle him to reelection to the office of eherifr When he assumed the duties of the office, life and property was unsafe in Pima county; murder was common. while horse ard cattle thieves piled their vocation with impUnity. Bob Paul Is ever on the alert, and nigh; or day he is always ready, and has never failed to perform his whole duty in hunting down thieves and murderers. He has made life and property as safe in Pima county as in any of the counties of the old settled states of the East, while highway robbery IS almost unknown. This IS a is a complete answer to the question asked by the Star, and the electors of Pima county will emphasize it with wonderful unaniuity at tho polls on election day.

TIE Tombstone EPitaph, in speaking of F. G. Hughes candidacy for tho Council, says:
 In addition to the disadvantages that F. c. Hughes labors under m hls ca H. dacy for Jolnt Councilman, IS the tect that a great many persons mistake hlm for Hughes of the Tucson Star.
 That may injure him where he IS not known, but if he will only go around and show bimself to the people they will at once see that he is not the equal of l.. c. Hughes of the Star in intellect, and here in Pima county, where they are best known, l.. c. Hughes Of the Star would poll two votes to Fred Huphes' one.

AFTER all 1t would seem from the subioined extract from the Star of yes- terduy, that f is not entirely sati1iied with the leadership of Strauss and Parker. II says:
 The great mistake in modern politics is placing the aiidirs of tine people in the hands of those who are professional pOliticlanF. it would be far better for the country to place it's official trusts m the hands ot it's industrious citizens, these who have been a success in the other walks Oi life.
