A STRONG CANDIDATE.
VI A. Frssxe Senninassa in the ptacs
 os W. O hsaa, Rssisnso.

A lev days ago ths secretary of the
 republican central committee of Ysvs
 psi county received letter from Hon l W. s. Head. at present m San Fran
 ciscc, stating that by reason of impor
 tsni business engagements which would
 enforce his absence fross the territory
 during tAo term oi tn. legis'atsre, h<
 was obliged so offer his resignation .. .
 candidate. At . meeting sf the csatral
 committee on Monday sreains the res. isnstisa of Mr. Head was accepted
 and ". A. Freeze Isa,issusiy nemi-
 mated 10 iill tho vacancy.
 The nominaticn of Nr. Freeze h met
 with .ai,sssai ssthssiasn. He was rendered this nomination by the late republican convention by nest cor dial aad nAstering exprsssion oi Ap- prsssl on the part of every delegate,
 but by rssssu of certain bssiasss ar arrangements then existing he felt oS- liged ,s decline. However, At the ur.
 gact solicitation oi tks csmnitttee. and ID consideration of ths persistent de-
 mAnds of his friends. he ccnssnss6 so ran.
 That the nass - W. A. Freeze loads strength to the tieke,, there is ne pos sible room for doubt Hs has seeH . rssident of tks territory for ten years, and during that time he has built up s record the pages of which any man might lay open before the world with hssest pride. His business sransse. uoas have sll boras the stamp of sn honest, straightforward 1sture, chsrsc. tsrized withAl by ths energy and d. rectness that have contributed SO us- terislly te his success. The vide cir cis of men who are proud to claim his friendship proves his popularity, and the depth of their friend- ship a'tests kis worth. He is sI staunch friend ts the interssts of Ysvs- pal county. and e her advocate in the legislature he will contest ts the finish any meassrs designed fer injury. He viii adhere faithfully to the terms of county di,ision as agreed upon by the committees selected by the people rep ressnting shs two sections of this couu- ty, and the same integrity ths. Eas-ks his ever. day life viii slss grace his record as ,lesisisto.. Re is the sniy maa on either ticket from the city of Prescott. and while tho disposition of NIT. Freeze is above and foreign ts fs- voritism. still 1t skeuid be borne in mind that in the distribution o. rsprs- sentatives simple justice demands that one should be accorded to this com manity.
 4 notable contrast ts the way in which Jim Losry and Col. Wilson accepted second hand the hsncra which were denied then ey the democratic convex tion is the manner ia which NJ. Fresse enters the politica, arena. Be was the choice of the republican convention, e he is to-day the choice of the pecrie. | Lovry and Wilson accepted nonina- ten by the democratic central commit tee, in the face of repudlatiSn ss the | hsnds of the democratic convention. Mir. Freeze had the unanimous sndorso- ment of both these organizations of his l party, and 1t may be fairly sad of him that the sfsce sought the man, and not 1 the man the ofics. |
 It is needless to say that he VI be l elected by large majority, and that the people who elect hiz w;E be ably rep ! resented ia the Sixteenth Leg islsture-
