THE Arizona Methodist comes out
on the question of Superintendent of
Public Instruction in an abI, article
in favor of Mr.. r. L. Long, the Re-
publican nominee for that Office,
arguing pointedly from non-polit-
icaI standpoint that Mr.. Long is
greatly the superior of DR.. Jones
for the position on account of his
more modern education and ideas
on educational matters, which is
circumstance not to be lost sight of
by the progressive people of the
Territory. 1t truthfully presents
the fact that the most important
plans in educational progress have
been developed since DR.. Jones
educational day and within the past
forty years. There is no denying
these facts. The educational sys-
tens most successfully pursued at
the present day are as much of an
improvement as are the present
means of steam locomotion upon the
old stage coach. Mr. Long is fully
up with the times in this matter.
His own education has taken place
wIthiR the present generation, and
furthermore he has been a practical
teacher for a number of years, study
ing and applying Tie new and more
potent methods Of the present day.
So much cannot be said of Dr. jones.
His active interest ID educational /
matters has been at an end for
period Of nearly forty years, and his
attention ,urne,,-=o matt. rs Of an
entirely different character during
that time and it stands to reason
that he is not proficient in cduca-
Lional systems of to-day, nor can he
become proficient IN them short of
years active educational work, which
IS of almost impossible for him to
give.
Arizona is RAPIDLY taking her
place in the nation as one of the
most important sections of the coun-
ry in II, and now, in her infancy. is
he time for her to be set Alright IN
Ter educational affairs as well as in
Ter more material interests, and we
:annot make a mistake in placing
t the head of our educational affairs
he most able educational talent the
Territory affords and we believe
hat in the election of Mr.. Long to
AXE charge of this important trust
We shall make no mistake.

Some days since numb>r of cill-
zens and attorneys sent petition to
Chief Justice Sumner Howard. of

Hon. a. d. Lemon and other Citizens :;
GENTLEMEN Your request in be-
half OF your Fair Association, that

clude that no public interest will

our county government. His re-
marks were we'll received and he
scored several points that our coun-
ty Dem ocracy will not be able to
overtuIn from the simple reason
that they are absolute truths and
facts.
Mr.. L. Fowler was then introduced |
and touched upon still other ques-
tions concerning our county and |
Territorial matters in a manner that !
made him friends and votes among |
those of the opposing party who
heard him Mr.. Fowler was follows
by Jerry Millay, in Il telling and |
eloquent speech, and also by Mr.. T. /

and by Capt. ~, A. Hancock who
andled the land question, with
every feature of which he is per>
rectly familiar, in most interest
ing manner.
The band was present for tnc oc~
,asion and interspersed some lively
music al intervals during the occa-
sion. Altogether the meeting was a
success. notwithstanding

derz and how enc so trusted and
who during 81 many years had so

The mediate cause of the assign
ment was that Joseph Belden, at
III Paris, drew on him for $13, 900
fer rents and interests due. Almost
Immediately after Mrs. Bowie, also
in Europe drew on him for $4,000.
Bowman could no: meet this de-
mands and this forced from him
the acknowledgement of the cOndi
