There Is TO opposition to the re-nom-
 nation of Col. C. C. Bean for delegate
 to congress except from interested guar
 teis, and 1t IS not very formidable. Col.
 Bean has labored hard and has accom-
 plished as much for Arizona as any other ' man could have done. IL IS an easy
 matter t0 find pretexts 10 critlciSe any
 official, and sacred history details the ! persecution even unto death of the
 illustrious Nazarene in whom there was no guile, and Ii IS not an unusual occur
 renee in this day of high civilization to witness the political cruciixion of good
 man by his pretended friends, bu; the odium of such a treacherous act as in the illustration above quoted, will abide with his prosecutors. Col. Bean is the spontaneous choice of nine-tenths of the

If unsuccessful, resort to hostili;ies; but should appoint commis- sioners, unless circumstances prevent arbitration Senor Romero, the Mexican minister says his government desires an amicable settlement Cf the present diff culues.
 The state department reports no new
 developments Tn the Cutting case, and
 the attitude of the government stands
 unchanged. The investigations into the
 trouble are progressing Whatever
 difference there exists will be reconciled,
 If possible, by diplomacy, or war. In no even, will the government assent 10 the
 doctrines for the arrest, trial an6 pun
