A Grand Ovation.

The reception of Gen. F. T. Nichols
by our people last Wednesday was
such a magnificent affair as to baffls all
description. Cannous reared and Inu-
sic and cheers rent the air with wild
enthusiasm. Large bot 10, Of citizens
from all over the parish took part in
that aud other demonstrations charac

E. j. Gay, and other gentlemen, emil.

doubtless the largest aver Witnessed In
this place. A striking feature Of it
Wal two large cane carts, on each side
of which the name Of E. j. Gay had
been formed Of sugar-canes denoting
the real not b:arnerOus-interest Of
Mr.. Gay to afford protection to the su
gar industry. Addresses were deliver
ed at Davis gr"ve,' aud were listened
to and applauded by u large number Of
colored as we'll as white voters, the
former Of which are, we %rejoice to state,
beginning to realize that the motives
of their past and present so-calied Re
publican leaders are resolved in a plain
and selfish garb of self interest, regard
less Of pubic veal or prosperity. At
8 o'clock in the evening Il torch light
procession was formed and u brilliant
illumination of torres and Residences
on Maiu street elected universal ad,ni
ration. The enthusiasm was most com

CAN the people of Pima county afford to allow the opportunity to advertise their resources at the Worlds Exposi- tion m New Orleans go by default! Here Is ore of the finest counties m the Territory, with natural resources that need only the application of capital to profitably develop, standing back and hugcinS the delusion that it must prosper without the aid of money and muscle. The sagacious business man, when times are dull, adyertlses his wares in the most attractive fashion and keeps it before the people that he can do little better with his customers than his next door neighbor. His con- uetitors look with consternaticn upon the string of customers coming and go- ing, and remark that he must be preparing to make an assign ment. Nothing O. the kind! He Is getting rich by keeping his inducements 10 purchase constantly be- fore the people. The same principle holds good in inc Case of the E1posi- tion. Millions of men of wealth and enterprise will visit the Exposition. Those whose tastes turn to mining will look over the various exhibits; passing along, Arizona is reached and Mohave display attracts them; a Yavapai bou- luet of minerals dazzle them; Yuma pyramid transfixes them; Maricopar Pinal, Apache, Gila, COchise and Gra- ham exhibits fill them with wonder. They search the guide book for informa- ton relative to these localities and find that one county alone Is unrepresented, and that the oldest and most prosper ous of the lot-and what will their in- ference be? It is easy to guess. With abundance or material for the best and most brilliant display ot our resources Pima county should broadly lead them all. There is DO question as to the re- sult-a single sale of q mine, the forma' ton of a new working company or the arrival of a few families of settlers will fully compensate for all the expense We hope all who can spare few dollar: will contribute as literally as possible tC enable MT. Dana Harmon, the lOca commissioner, to gather the boss dis play of the Exposition.

TIE Republicans In convention at Tombstone adopted Territorial plat form of principles that ought to suit every honest citizen. Every important point at issue has received careful and thoughtful attention. The old and fraudulent land grant claims are deemed matters of depressing influence and the aid of Congress invoked for their re- movaI: the subiection of railroads and other corporations to the will of the people through legislative enactments IS recommended; the removal Of the h. dlans and the reduction of reservations are demanded, and many other measures of reform enter into the able document. As the question of polygamy promises to figure prominently in the political future of Arizona, its denouDcement now is timely. The sunshine e our bright country should never be clouded with such an unholy pail. and that evil should be nipped by the early frosts or determined opposition. Upon the whole, it IS an embodiment of sound prlnclples, couched ln plain and unmistakble language, to which every good Republ- can can conscientiously subscribe.

HE nimble fire-crRcker and the laundering bomb awakened the echoes of early morn and reminded the denizens of this border city that a neighbOring republic has occasion to rejoice in the glorious righ ts of liberty as well as our selves. The same patriotism that inspires the people of the United States to resolve into their natural elements a lot Of valuable explosives upon the Fourth of July, Impels the model Mexi- can patriot to make like demonstrations upon bis sacred l6th day of September. Wherever be may dwell. in any foreign land or cline, the thoughts of inc Mexican citizen turns back to his loved home and kindred upon this national day, and he invariably displays some outward insignia of hIs love for his native land. Here Tn Tucson we wit ness these demonstrations yearly and become not only familiar with them, but blend our own individuality and nationality into the demonstrations m honor of liberty by an equal participa- ton with our southern neighbors. The ties of friendship are in this manner more closely drawn; the amicable rela- tions strengthened, and the great prin- ciples of self-government more clearly shown and hOnored.

Republican Proverbs.
From Blaine's Letter of Acceptance. ]

 We seek the conquest of peace.
 The strength of the republic Is in- creased by the multiplication of land holders.
 Experiments in the industrial and financial system is the country's great est dread, as stability is its greatest boon.
 Citizenship of the republic must be the psnoply and safeguard of him who wears it.
 Itis a good land which the Lord our God doth give us, but we can maintain our heritage only by guarding with dili- gence the source of popular power.
 Consuls should be commercial sentl- nels encircling the globe with watchful- ness for their country's interests.
 The agricultural interest IS by far the largest ia the nation, and entitled Tn every adjustment of revenue laws to the first consideration.
 The law does not interfere with what a man believes; 1t takes cOguIzance of what be does.
 Religious liberty is the right of every citizen of the republic.
 The South needs capital and occupa- tion, not controversy.
 The institutions of the United States rest upon the intelligence and virtue of all the people.
 The people have ibe right to the most efficient agents in the discharge of pub lie business, and the appointing power should regard this as the prior and ulterior consideration.
 Labor is indispensable to the creation and profitable use of capital, and capital increases the efficiency aDd value of labor.
 Wages are unjustly reduced when an industrious man is not able by his earn ings to live in comfort, educate lis children, and lay by . sufficient amount for the necessities Cf age.

 Cor. c. c. BEAN, Repupubhtan nom- inee for delegate to Congress, Is en- dorsed all over the Territory. His nomination has inspired great en- thusiasm and new hopes of accomplish Ing something for Arizona. The Epltaph says: "In presenting the name of c. C. Bean, of Yavapai, the Republicans have T man who is better known and more widely esteemed than perhaps any one who could have been named. An honest. able. liberal, representative mnn, he once carried his own county, when running as an independent candidate for delegate to Congress, by about three hundred majority. He knows every mountain. valley and traIl m the Terri tory. and is far better fitted to represent our people than his opponent, C. +. Head. Besides, as it is now fully as- sured that the coming administration will be Republican. Mr. Bean will be fully Tn accord with it, and hence Wiii obtain for our Territory what justly belongs toit.'

THE Star, in noticing the nomination of R. l.. Long as the Republican can didste for Territorial Superintendent ol Public Instruction says: Judge R. l.. Long. Of Globe, the recent Republican nominee for Superintendent of Pubic Instruction, is somewhat unfortunate m getting on the wrong ticket, inasmueh as it is to be regretted that so pleasant a gentleman and one so capable of tiL- ing the position for winch he has been nominated, should be defeated at the polls. The writer of this IS personally acquainted with the Judge and believes him to be an upright, liberal minded and concientious man. It IS therefore to be regretted that nan eminently qualified for the position he asplres to and to which he would do credit, should be found on the wrong side of the fence when the time for counting the votes comes, but such IS life"

The Prospects Of the 1. N. B. R. R.

The following IS an extract of letter from W. $. Eaton, secretary of the Mineral Belt Construction and I'm provement Company to T. A. Lonergan, Esq:
 "Your letter received. You ask my opinion of the Arizola Mineral Belt Railroad, and no doubt ask 1t thinking that the quiet of the past few weeks or months must mean disaster. But 1t Is pot so. I believe the road will be built The delay in getting to work has been due largely, if not wholly, to the negotia- tions carried on for several months past between the AtchisOn, Topeka and Santa Fe, the St. LoIis and San Fran cisco and the Atlantic and Pacific on one side and the Southern Pacific on the other. These negotiations, theIr origin, aim and result you are probably familiar with, and 1t Is not necessary for me to go into detail regarding them. l am glad to be able to say that matters at lssue between these three companies mentioned have been adjusted satis- factorily and finally, and believe that this adjustment removes what has been 6 serious obstacle to progress n the Arizona Mineral Belt Railroad project, and that active work m construction will soon begin on our road. My opinion Is that yOu will soon see tangible evidence that Globe Is to have railroad communication with the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad, via the Arizona Mineral Belt Railroad "-Globe Chronicle.

THE New York Herald has at last per petrated piece of humor that will i'm mortalize that newspaper. What could be more funny than this: "The Maine election turned out so disastrously for the Blaine people that the political ground swell begins to take on the d. mansions of tidal wave. News from all parts of the country shows that the people are awake and that public opin- ion "does move" and is moving. Some of the Democratic leaders and man. agers here in the East are, like some so- called leaders of Tammany, slow to dis cover what their people are thinking Of; but the people are alive, and in the West and Northwest the party leaders are as active Hs the voters"

The Cannon Ball mill upon Schultz < Goldtree's mine on the San Pedro IS working splendidly. X considerable quantity of gold is accommodating on the amalgam plates, and the concentrations of the tallings are very rich. An assay of these concentrations made by A. k. Brewer gave SlG6 in silver and S2,3l9 in cold-a total valuation of S2, 2,iS5, be- sides 52 per cent. in lead. These con centrations were worked down very close, and as considerable amount of their ore is not free milling, the concen- trations will probably cut as great a figure in the net results as the amalga- nation process. At a low estimate the mill will yield about Sl0O0O per month and fully three tons of concentrations worth ct least S7.500. At such an out put the fortunate owners will fairly bristle with gold in short time,
