A VOICE FRoM TIE GRAVE.

Poor old Sammy Tillen has once
 more raised his feeble voice in a letter of thanks in response 10 the committee of inc National Democratic convention
 conveying tO him certain lauiatory res olutions. MT. Tilden can'treiraIn from giving the Republicans a boost, and
 says in his letter that flor sixty years the Democratic party mainly directed oar national policy; extended the boundaries of the Republic and laid the founiation of all our national great ness" (Which Is not true.) And at the end of those sixty years what did the Democratic party do? 4 majority of it rebelled and made war against the Union, and ike balance of 1t under the Presidency of James Buchanan, ad- mi,ted that 1t had no power to coercs the States in rebellion, or pleserTe the Union. TLe Republican psrty then came forward, and under the wise leadership of Abraham Lincoln put down the rebellion, saved the Union, and preserved in its entirety this grand and noble Republic, while such men as Tilden, Hendricks and thousands of other leading Democrats. declIred the WET a failure, and rendered aid and comfort to the rebellion. And now after twenty four years of good government by inc party that saved the country, this old man comes forward with tLe assertion that sir his judgment it is indispensable and neces- sary that a change of administration in the great executive office of the country be made by the election Of the Demo
 cratic candidates for President and VIce | President" Haa we entrusted the management of .he government to these men we would have had no country tC ! govern, and no use for men to ill the "great cxecutivc offices Of the country No, Mir. Tlaen. We have no use for you aud such as follow you. Don't worry your poor old head or tire youi palsied hand by further efforts in behalf of party that has been dying for twea- ty-iour years, and whose body Is even now on the way to the morgUe and the day of Its final intsrment set HOG ASSo
 The Republicans are also in favor oi a change. As Emory 4. Storrs recently stated in speech in Ohio, i've would have a 'hange from the wise, patriotic and decofUus administration of Chester 4. Arthur to inc wise, splendid, spirited and patriotic administration of James C. Blaine" This IS what We want, and the indications are that We will get it.

STRAUSS committee, says the Star, "have got down to work, and already the result of their labor is being felt by the enemy, who have become thur- oughly demoralizsd" We'll, we'll: that is pretty good Strauss demoralizing the enemy! No, Strauss begins nearer home than that. He demoraliZes his friends. The demoralization is in the Democratic camp. The gentleman re- ferrei to has warmed himself in the bosom of the dear old party" and the old party cannot help itself. The dear old party may kick and squirm, as it did 8 short time ago, and say that Strauss IS dead; but Strauss is not dead, but is the head of the Democratic party of Pima county, and Strauss makes tue Star and all others in the Democratic camp dance to his music. The Republi- cans of Pima county are we'll pleased with Stranss' mission, but neither his mission or his methods impress the Re publicans to any alarming extent The editor of the Star may as we'll take Mir. Strauss pain killer with as good face as possible. It may not taste well, but it is the best you have, and vhle it will not do you much good it cannot do yuu much harm.

THE GovERNnR ACTS pRnMpr1Y

In another column will be found a proclamation issued by Governor Tritle offering a reward of $500 for the arrest and conviction of the party or parties who murdered the Mexican boy, Fran CISCO Quinones, in the southeastern part of Pima county, on the Sth of last July.
 With the rewards already offered, as published in yesterdays CITIZEN, there IS now total reward of sI,200 for the apprehension of these criminals. The murder lat Friday. on Jim Rafferty's ranch, of MT. and Mrs. Fritz and Mir. Raymond, who are believed to have been killed by the persons who murdered the MeTcan boy, will doubtless lead to a thorough investigation into this matter; and we sincerely hope, for the peace and prosperity ot the county, that all of the persons who participated in these strocious murders. may meet with swift r-tributlon from the law.
 The prompt action oi Governor Tritle IT, offering the reward for the arrest of tae guilty parties will be appreciated by all the good citizens of Pima county.

OUR Republican brethren wish it tC be distinctly understood that this Is { money campaign.-Star.
 The Star measures Republican wheat with its own half bushei. IL vlll be re. membered that the Star, not loug since made the astounding stuteEont that Democrats who wanted i:s support must pungle up; tha: T. took money ,o run a newspaper, aui t!ar money must be forthcoming 1T they desired to shine in the columns cf ti.lt moral sheet.
 The Star is nov supporting ;Le ticket from top to bottom. Can IL be possible that the candidates hardened unto the admonitions of the Star?
 No; the Republicans are not running "a money campaign" They have pre- sen.ed the best ticket to the electors of Pima county, and they expect to elect it on its merits. That Is the kind of cam paIsn the Republicans are running, and We have no doubt it will prove success ful ar the rol=.

IT is not every one who IS born with silver spoon in his mouth. Not more than one in twenty becomes good livers and only one in one hundred gains a competence. But one in five hundred becomes rich, and not one in one thousand becomes generally known in the State or Territory where he lives, nor more than one in four thousand who is known outside of his own State. IL is also we'll established fact, every where that no more than one in 1000 possesses the qualities requisite and necessary Co make a good sheriff R. H. Paul is one among 5000 who fills the bill. The electors of Pima county thought SO four years ago when they first elected him to the office; they thought so two years ago, when they elected him over Shaw, and they will elect him over Shaw for the THIRD TERM this year.

 W. $. OUEY, Fredrick Maish and Richard Harrison, are representative men capable of administering the affairs of the county, aud all represent ntiyes Of the stock and other interests of the county.
 The above was copled from the Star of this date. While it is partially trus 1t is not altogether true us ore of the parties referred to has no property in of attending to his own business, is he capable of attending to the business of the county! This IS something the electors of Pima county want to con- sIder and ponder over before they cast their vote for supervisors.

SESAroR PAYNE, or Standard oil Payne" as he Is called in Ohio, IS not the only bad one of that name. The war department has received inforna- ton that Oklahoma Payne is arranging for another invasion of the Iudian Ter ritory. It seems there Is no law for punishing such invaders as Payne. The military authorities are required to ar- rest, and turn over such invaders to the civil authorities and the result Is that Payne Is no sooner turned over than he regains his liberty. and is again ready for another expedition. If Payne would come out here to Arizona, and devote his energies in helping us remove tte Apaches to Oklahoma instead of trying to locate white settlers there, he would be serving in more righteous cause. and one that he would be more likely to succeed in.

HE Star says Ben Hereford will not only get every Democratic vote oi the county, but his genial social ways will play severe havoc in the Republi. can ranks" That kind of social ways does not meet the approval of the Re publicans, and We are pleased to learn there are large number of respectable Democrats in Tucson who do not Hp- prove 1t, and will not vote for Mir. Here ford. The Star had as well not place any majority to the credit Of MT. Here ford, as he cannot even carry his own

TIE Star says: "AbOut four hundred and fifty citizens have been brought in as iurymen in this tGiJson) and Murphy case, which leaves over fifteen hundred who are qualified % act on jury duty, and who have not been brought into coart." This statement will appear very ridiculous when we come to examine the great register, which shows less than l,390 names, or GJ0 less than the Star puts the number. What does the Star mean by stating such a falsehood in the face of the records IL is a fact well known to the Star, and every other cit izen of his county that ont ot the 1890 on the great register which rep resents the full numIer of qualified names 10 serve on juries, at least GO are Mexicans who cannot speak OF un- derstand the English language, and arc not con. eient to sit on jury before an English speaking court, English speak ing lawyers and witnesses. If the Star desires to cay anything further in rela- ton to tine GibsoH-Murphy trials it may as well get down to the facts, as false and exaggerated s,a.cmsats will not be accepted by the people

JOIN GAREITY, an Irish American,
 and five of his sons who have always voted the Democratic ticket, will vote for Blaine and Logan this year, and be has just written a strong letter to his sixth son, who still holds ont for Cleve-

WHAT WE WANT AND WILL HAVE.


 The South American republics. includ-
 ing Mexico, import about S7O0,OO0sOOO
 annually. Out of this the United States
 furnishes about Sl00OO0O00, and Great
 Britain does the rest. It is no wonder,
 then, that the leading journals of Eng
 land are opposed tO the election of James G. Blaine President of the United
 States. That country has no desire to lose this important trac 2, and they well know that if Grover Cleveland should be elected that they will not lose it. Republicans want this trade; Repubii- cans want American ships to carry our manufactured goods and our produce to the 400J0000 people who inha6it the Spanish-American republics. They need our railway iron, our agricultural im- plements. our cotton and wOClen goods. sewing machines and thousands of other articles of vertu and utility. The United States buys the most of the cof
 fec produced in Brazil yet We sell them comparatively nothing. American but ter and cheese are shipped 10 England, repacked m Liverpool, marked Dutch and sent to Rio Janeiro as the proiuct of that country. We desire to have this stopped. and shipments made direct from tine United States. We desire to have the "Monroe doctrine" prevail in T.,A e, British forts constructed along the line of any ship canal n Central America. 1T such forts should be constructed, and We should ever get into foreign war, We could not send a ship from New York or any other eastern sea port to the Pacific states, without the permis- sion of Great Britain, to pass through the canals.
 The Republican motto is that Amer Icaus shall rule America" without any interference by Great Britain or any other European power. Let Europe take care of her own affairs and we with Blaine as President, will see to it that no power beyond the sea shall meddle with the affairs of this conti- nent.
 We may now fairly rank the United | States, as the first of the civilized na- tions of the world. It IS true that | Russia has larger population than We have, but our population Is 50 far ahead 1 Of Russias in resources, intelligence, | wealth and general prosperity as to more than offset the difference in num- | bers
 It IS also true that the nations of | Europe do not rank the United States | as their equal, and why? Simply be- cause We have never declared that We | are their equal-never have asserted | our rights as a natiou-never have made | the name of an American citizen re- spected in that country. But when James G. Blaine is elected President as he surely will be on the 4th day of November hext, it will no longer be disgrace for an American citizen to aS- sert his nationality in a foreign land. Cit izens of the United States and our poor castaways will no longer be compelled to seek protection under the British, German or French flag. The stars and stripes we love so well, will then be- come a panoply of defence and protec- ion second to that of no other nation in he world, and the "Monroe doctrine which We now read about, will become ! living reality.

HE Star, in referring to the election of Supervisors, admits that "in their hands are entrusted the entire manage ment of county affairs, the expenditure of moneys, the levying of taxes, the building of roads, in fact a general su- pervision of everything which entails expense upon the county. Hepce the importance that men of experience, good judgment, capable aud honest, be chosen to fill such responsible trusts. '" The CITIZEN is glad to see its neighbor stumble on the truth once in awhile
 We join the Star ID urging the import ance of securing capable and expert enced men for Supervisors. No better men can be found to fill the offices of Supervisors than J. c. Handy, J. s. Mansfield and George W. Teitswoith. They are all men of capacity, who are heavy taxpayers in the county, and their property IS not in the name of their wives, either. They are the kind of men to elect to office. People are getting tired of supporting men for public of- flee who act as agents for their wives.

The Grim Face Of A Battlefield.
Iwent yesterday evening to the
field of battle. It was Q dark,
cloudy evening. I rode by myself
and saw i,z'sr;ma morris image.
Some Of the dead are withered,
their faces blackened to the color
of coal, others still swollen and bis
tered. The Persian l mentioned
was perfect everywhere, and had
his quilted coat on; but his face
had fallen or been eaten of, and
his naked skull started out like the
hermit's of the wood Of Joppa Tin
the Castle If Otranto). Kites and
adjut.nts, larger than the Calcutta
ones, were feeding on the bodies,
and dogs were feeding in some pla-
ces and in others bowling all over
the plain. I saw a black dog tear
ing, in furious way, great pieces
Of flesh from a dead man, looking
fiercelv and not regarding me |
thought the group horrible aud sub.
lime. At last l began to feel a
good deal Of horror but no:
