 Thomas E. Parish is reported as a candidate for justice of the peace ln Maricopa county. Shades of tee great departed How the mighty have fallen
 Henry George has declared in favor of Cleveland He has a following of about five hundred. It will be of inter- est now to hear from Spies disciples, the anarchists.
 A few of our democratic exchanges speak of Michigan as doubtful state. Yes, about as doubtful as Pennsylvania doubtful whether Harrison's majority will be 10000 or 5o,ooo
 How flattered MT. Carnegie would be if he only krew how the great demo- critic lights of northern Arizona, "C. M. E. "H. T. A." and D. J. s." souan der ink over his greatness.
 Los Angeles has just been honored by the arrival of an honorary vice con- sul from Spain named Gregario del Amery Gonzales de Ia Rivera. He brought his name over in sections.
 James c. Blaine was welcomed home to American soil yesterday by thousands of fellow citizens. No private citizen ever received a more cordial welcome than did Mir. Blaine, the greatest living statesman.
 Johnny Bull found out that Cleve- land is not governor of Missouri. when the demand was made for a respite for Maxwell. Governor Warehouse de serves credit for his refusal to accede to Englands demand for commutation of sentence
