This has been the most successful month
in our sales since the day we first entered

occasion, no period. We account for 1t in
this way. In the first place we keep up
the standard OF our make and excellence,
and, another important fact, we have been
selling lower than usual, to meet the ex-
igencies of the times. There has been O.
great demand for OyERCOATs.

hKAanU's AAlDEX SPEECH.

George Hearst, California's new dem oora;ic United States Senator, made an
 assanine exhibition of himself when he attempted to make speech euloginng the dead senator whose seat he fills It IS sad by the associated press agent to have been one of the most remarkable and. a, the same time, humiliating spec taoies tha; was ever seen Tn Congress when George Hearst. the new Senator
 from California, delivered what was ir- tended to be eulogy upon the life and character of hIs predecessor, John
 F. Miller. Hearst never made a speech ir public before,' and his friends will never want to hear him sgain. He vas entitled 10 some allowance because of his inexpeeience, but any man who is fit to occupy seat in the Senate of the United States ought to have had suhc- tent respect for the occasion and for himself to avoid making such spectacle of himself as Senator Hearst did. His performance would have been disgrace ful on any occasion, but its disgrace was aggravated by the solemnity of the pro- ceedings of which il was part. Hearst had evidently stimulated himself to un- dergo the ordeal of a maiden speech until he was ID . condition of extreme in,oxica,ion, and he read his remarks in a manner that caused the other senators to exchahge glances sf indignation and surprise, and provoked laughter in the galleries His speech. which is sent verbatim in the press dispatches, was written in the senator's own hand, and the manuscript shows that man can hold a sea, in the United States Senate who IS not only illiterate, but lacks all sense of the dignity ot his posi- tion. The manuscript IS not punctuated. the capital letters are ID the wrong words. the spelling IS ridiculous, and the composition would not have done credi, to a twelve year old school boy. There have been some curioss charac- ters in the Senate, but Hearst is unique.

Messrs. Stewart, Hatch and Lincoln, the Board of Directors of the Insane Asylum, are old and honored residents, thoroughly identihed with the advance men, of this territory, while their accus- CTS can be pla-ed among tramps and ad- venturers who are here to-day and liable ;o be in jail ;o-morow.
 Governor Fansh, as the Citizen puts is, is bu, political barnacle. whose in ;rigue and disregard for truth, assisted Mr. Zuliok to jump from nothing to notoriefy. These two, after getting political fooihold, were adopted by few more Of the scum of the country, thus torming the nucleus Of junta for the purpose of forcing public affairs in their own way, with a high hand and basely fer selfish ends.
 The contras, between this Parish Zulick outfit and the directors is 50 bread and well-dehned as to be plainly seen by every bona hde resident of Ari- .ona
 These official in,riguers have over stepped the bounds of ,olera,ion ID coming here. mushroom like, and as sailing the characters Of men whom we all know to be good and true, and faith ful 10 cur best interests; and whose in ,egrity is unassaiialable. l, is only barely necessary for any thinking person to ask himself, who are the men assailed, and who are the assailautss and the question decides itself
 We are glad % observe tha, Directors Hatch, Lincoln and Stewart have not been affrighted by the loud sounding gengs, and interested clasuers, which proves 10 cur mind that while they are persecuted, they are able to hurl solid chunks of onus prebandi at their ac- cusers, and will perhaps cause their i'm peachmen, and removal from office.
 The underhanded strategy Of this at temp, to frighten men from their duty was strengthened by success m few other cases, and was plainly contem- plated as early as the day of laying the corner stone of the asylum, when Gov. Zuiick refused to identify himself with the progress of the work by laying the cor ne: stone of the building, when invited to do so
 The Directors of the Asylum are all men who pay large taxes; they are so all blessed with fortune that the territory could not lose dollar under any cir cumstances, and, as it IS, at the comple- sion of the fine structure they will turn in an overplus of SI 1000 into the treas ury.
 Take another glance al their accusers, consult their past public and private ca reers. Consider ;hei. status among men if they were cut of office What would become of them? You will agree with US tha. they would still be adventurers and sramps, and soon, perhaps, find their end in prison or the poorhouse.-Tucson Mining Index.

Tucson is passing through the throe: of a series of social scandals, which i: shaking Its social fabric from deme te foundation stone. The central and prominent figure is T. L Stiles. a brigh, and handsome, and heretofore popu- lar, young lawyer of the town. Mir. Stiles IS also deacon in the Congrega- tional church, and a great lover ol music, being himself a goed singer. His duties as deacon and his abilities as a musician brought him frequently into the association of certain ladies who also occupied high positions in society, and who could not resist the charms and fas. cinations of this gay young Adonis. The result was the same old story. A broken hearted wife, most estimable lady, too, a separation and divorce, with two other antilles disrupted. Stiles was recently tried by committee of church people, who, instead of dismlssing him from the society, as his conduct meri;ed. appoint ed a committee of five ladies to confer and pray with him The prospect fo: the scandal widening is therefore good. Mir. Stiles was a few years ago a sub scriber and reader of THE JOURNAL and as long as he received each week its moral teachings and acted thereon. he was a respected and honored citizen
 When he stopped his paper we were aware that some occult power for evil was working on him, and were appre- hensive of the result. If the committee appointed to win him back desire to sue oeed in their mission, we suggest, en- tirely gratis, that they furnish him with copy of this family journal again.
