The Late John stemmer.

"The evil that men do live after them; the good is oft inferred with with their bones" :"
 The ;ragical ending of life that calls one of our townsmen hence to "that bourne from which no traveller returns" leads us to think gently and with forbearance upon the man as he lived and with horror upon the awful death he died.
 John Stemmer was a man whose heart was endowed with the kindest and most benevolent attributes toward his fellow man, genial, social friend, and a good neighbor. That he was eccentric in manner and irregular in his habits We may in a measure at tribute to the surroundings of the man whose burdens in life were more at times than he could bear.
 That such was a weakness we may not say, nor is it within our province to know the proyocation that led him at times subsequent to his tragical end to bewail his lot in life in a man. ner that bespoke states oi affairs unknown to those who are prosperous and happily situated in life; a brief period of which might be dearly pur- chased by ia world of happy days" thereafter. True it is that many of us will think often and not unkindly of the dead man now, who never found a place in our thoughts before his tragical end.

Tho Right Nind of an Accident Company

Inc ktsht hihu or an Acciueht company
 Seven years ago, when the United States Mutual Accident Association of the City of New York was organized, 1t promised an aggressive campaign against exlortionate rates for accident insurance, and the rejection of just claims for indemnity and death losses upon strictly technical ground. It has kept its promise, and by furnish ing sound accident insurance at ex- tremely low rates and adjusting its osseS on basis of fairness and jus ace, has built up a membership of twenty thousand, and carries to-day an insurance of one hundred millions of dollars.
 The United States Mutual Accident Association has adjusted and paid oonorably and promptly over four thousand claims amounting to nearly half a million of dollars, at a cost to its members of only one half the rates charged by stock accident compa- nies, and invites all who appreciate honesty, economy and fair dealing to join it's ranks. A S5, 900 policy with sz5 weekly indemnity costs members of preferred occupations only SIS wear, which may be paid at one time or by assessments as they are made

A. F. FAY, Editor and Proprietor.
orw NEXT GOVERNOR.

It is not exactly settled yet, but the chances are. that w, k. Meade, of Tombstone, will be tie party to distribute the federal patronage Tn Arizona after the fourth oi Malch.- Citizen.
 Under the Democratic a6minlstra- tion, to come into power in March next, Arizona will have new Gov ernor. Since the Chicago conven' ton was held, which nominated Cleveland and Hendricks for Presi- dent and Vice President, and plank ' being inserted in that platform that all appointments for offices in the Territories should be made from resi- dents thereof,it has been a conceded fact among the Democracy of the Territory that in case of the success of the national ticket, Hon. w. k. Meade, of Tombstone. Cochse coun- tv, would be the Democratic Gcv. ernor of Arizona.
 Having known and lived n-ighbor to that gentleman for period of about eight years, we can speak of him in familiar way, as we desire the readers of the CHAMPION to be come acquainted with the next execu . tive officer of the Territory.
 % w. K. Meade is Virsinian by birth, is aged about thirty three, and has resided in the Territory for about len years. His first introduction into politics in the Territory was l. D tle Tenth Legislative Assembly when he represented Pinal county II. the Lower House. In that capacity . he gained the confidence and esteem of his fellow members, and represent ed his constituents very ably. Al the close of that session the Tomb. 
 stone district was just beginning to come to the front, and alter brief sojourn in Tucson he went to the new mining camp where he has since re sided, having been constantly en gagged in mining. He was elected to the Council of the Eleventh assembl, by his Democratic friends in Pima county, and that winter Cochise county was formed, with Tombstone as the county seat, His labUrS IT. behalf of the new county measure will long be remembered by the peo- pie of Tombstone, and the Democra Cy of that county have constantly looked up to him as safe leader ana an enterprising business man. For years he has been active in extensive mining operations in Cochise county, representing different companies, composed of eastern men, and ha, done a great deal in developing tn, mining resources of the country. He was chosen as one of Arizona's dele. gates to the Chicago convention, voted, worked hard for the successiL. ticket, and by that convention wa made member of the National Dem ocratic committee, an honor which our Territory duly apprecis ted, know ing that she wIs ably represented in so important and, as ]; has proved, so successful a body. M; Meade en. joys an extended and influential ac quaintance with the leading men ol his party in the nation, and, as tn, Citizen truthiully remarks, he will bt influential in distributing the publi, patronage of Arizona, and the party will honor him with the highest offic, in the Territory. No man within our borders understands more fully onr necessities, and with an admins tration in sympathy with him, h. energies will be cxcrted Tn our bc half.
