CANDIDATES.

It will soon be in order for the two great political parties of Yavapai county to select candidates for the different county offices, as well as for members of both houses of the terri torial legislature which meets next January,
 The CHAMPION is desirous of sec ing men nominated and elected, who are representative citizens. By this we mean men who by actual residence have acquired thorough knowledge ot the wants of our people. Men who will legislate for the best interests of the whole people, irrespective of rings or cliques.
 Men who will labor to the best of their ability for the benefit of every section and industry in the county. Men who are constitutionally honest and can never be made a party to any corrupt scheme.
 In this connection, Flagstaff and vicinity has a number of gentlemen who possess the necessary qualified. tions to fill any position which the people might see fit to place them in. Such men as w. H. AShurst, S. s. Acker, w. M. Munds, w. G Stew art, Thos. McMillan, Al. Doyle, D. j. Brannen, B. B. Bullwirkle, I. F. Daggs, C. T. Rogers, D. M. Riordan, J. B. Thomas, and many others that we could mention, are bonafde resi-. dents and taxpayers of our county and we believe would labor earnestly and faithfully, not only for the interests of Flagstaff and vicinity, but for the welfare of the Territory ot Arizona in general.

 The newspapers frequently congrat ulate themselves over the postal law recently put in force by the Postoffice Department. It makes the taking of a newspaper and refusing to pay for the same theft, and a person guilty ofsuch action is liable to proceedings the same as if he had stolen goods to the amount of the subscription. Here after it will not be considered shrewd scheme to take newspaper from the office a year and inform the editor that you never ordered it sent you.- Wilcox Stockman.

FAILURE OF THE TEXAS WOOL CLIP

Reports received as to the condi- ton of the Texas wool clip are very discouraging. The yearly average k about 40, ,ooo, 1000 pounds and this years clip is said to be about $, ,ooo, 900 pounds short.
 Thousands of sheep have died in the drouth stricken districts for want of water and grass. There will be no mutton to ship this year. Eastern wool buyers who went there to pur- chase, are unable to obtain anywhere like the usual amount of wool and all purchases are sad to be made on private terms.

HOME RULE.

The recent elections in England have resulted in a defeat for home rule in Ireland for the present, Pre- mier Gladstone made a gallant fight for the measure, but tory traditions are too strong in England to do jus tice to Ireland. However, this is only the entering wedge, and it is only matter of time when the Green Isle will have government of its own.

Ayers Pills are made from inc concern trated extracts and active remedial prln- ciples of purely vegetable substances. They are, therefore, far more effective and satisfactory in their cathartic, diurctic, and tonic effects than Pills made b. the ordinary process from powdered ,trgrs. M. c.

MT. Gladstone's Government of Ireland bill provides that the Irlsh legislative body shai | col sist of a first and second order. The first order is to consist of seventy five elective members and the twenty-eight Irish repr sentative peers. The elective members must be possessed of property yielding G2OO year, free of all charges, aud shall hold office ten years. Provision is also made for retiring thirty-seven or th,rty-eight of these members at stated periods, those to retire being members serving the longest time without re-elec- ton. For pesrage members the term is for life, or until the expiration of thirty years from the appointed day. At the ex- piration of thirty years the offices of all peerage members are to be Yactted and I of the first order. The offices of members | of the first order are not to be vacated by the dissolution of the legislative body. The second order, of 204 members, is to be chosen by the existing constituencies, except Cork, which is to be divided intO l two districts, each returning two members. I It is also provided, that the Irish Legisla- ture, after the first dissolution, shall have l.poWer to alter the constitution or election of the second order. The two orders are to sit and vote together, except on ques- tions arising in relation to standing orders or rules of procedure, when each order shall, if 8 majority of either demand 8 separate vote, give their votes as if they were separate legislative bodies, and if the result of voting of the two bodies does not agree, the question shall be resolved ID the negative. s....s.s
 This is the sight ths New London Day saw the other night: A few nights since the owl train over the Shore Line railroad carried eight lady passengers whose aggre gate avoirdupois amounted to more thar 8, 900 pounds. The fairy of the company was fifteen years of age and weighed only 25O pounds, while the stout woman weigh ed $40 pounds. They were bound to 6 museum in Providence. At each division of the road there was wrangle between the agent who had them in charge and tht railroad officials, whether they should bt chased as freight or passengers. The dis pute was settled all along the line by the agent agreeing to claim damages in case o an accident, only for ordinary human be ings and not objects of art. The train go ing north couple of days later carried { giant weighing over 700 pounds to Bos ton. He occupied four seats in the cal and no one sought to disturb him.

 Tobacco played wonderful part in the defeat of the prohi bitjonista at Richnond and Lynohburg, the largest sit1es m Yir- ginia. In Richmond where th0 hcense men carried all but one Ol the A precincts, their opponents had dependea in large measure on the colored vote for theIr strength. A circular was issued, however, representing that if hqnof was prohibited the next move would be against tobocco, and the effect on the negroes, thousands of whom are employed in the tobacco fac tories of the city, was remarkable. They deserted the ''dry" ticket by hundreds and the largest ward in tue city gave rousing majority in favor of license. Much the same effect was produced in Lynch burg by the indiscreet attack on tobacco by Bishop Turner of Georgia, colored, in his address Saturday night. The state prohi- bition convention had just closed 2 two days session, leaving strong sentiment in favor of the principles there advocated, but when the temperahca fencer from the old north state tried to swing a two-e edged sword he moved down far moro friends than foes. The home choice smoking tobacco rose in it's might and repudfated the bishop and his principles. ,+e3
