Sunday, February 9-p. m.


The United States Treasurer last week re-
ccivcd from customs $j,22i,G0s, from internal
revcnue S2S21s50 and from miscellaneous
sources SlGl, 454; total from all, SS'40o'oll'
against 50 n 800 for the preceding week Inc
bond purchases of the week amounted TO Ss221oo
1 pcr cents S3ii 000 and IL per cents Sl'7'-
500. All of the per cents and n large part OF
the II per cents purchased from uepoSi-
tory banks, so that the amount OF money whlch
came out of the Treasury for bond purchases III
excess Of the premiums paid upon the ponuS was
insignificant The Ircasurys weekly statement
of balances shows small changes from the state
ment Of February |. There is reported gam
Of S1ss,114 in the balances in vaults; but TINS
sum of gain is $4,000 less than the weekly
coinage OF standard silver dollars. Hence the
expansion Of legal money in circulation made Tor
the week is SAP, 600. The deposits of Govern
mcnt bonds in National banks were reduced
s964. 612; hence the net reduction in the Treas
ury's cash balance S776,40s. There was a
reduction in the liability for redemption of sur
rendered National bank notes of SS27,457, so that
by the statement the net available balance over
liability for trust funds was increased S50,959.
Tho statement, as it made up for yester-
day. closely approXimates the actual condition
of the Treasury at the close of business on last

THE CLASS of people who bring into the campaign history of the Noun tain Meadow massacre as an argument against the election of Mark Smith, who was boy at that time sporting in the blue grass regions of Kentucky, where he was born, should go further back still and accuse him of being a descendant of the party which cruel fled our Savior. There Is as much sense in the one as in the other.

 foURTH-Merey, and desire 10 re- iieye suffering being considered the grandest tributes of human character this convention eharaeterizes as in- human that section of what is known as the "hospital law" preventing the extension of public relief to alien suf- ferers, and hereby pledges the candi- dates for the legislature fer the repeal of that law.
 FHTH-Our taxpayers having been for a number of years compelled to endure high rate of taxation, this convention points to the fact that by reason of the late administration Of our affairs during the past two years the rate of taxation in Cochise county is now lower than it has been for s long term of years and this convention | pledges its candidates to an ecOnOmi- cal administration of affairs
 SIxTH-FOr ar almost uninterrupt- ed term of ten years Arizona has been represented in the halls of Congress by men of the Democratic party and they having in that time accomplish ! ed nothing for the benefit of our Ter, ritory, We charge them with incom' potency and believe that the time has arrived when we should make strong and united effort to change the polit. ical complexion of our representative in congress and ss joint councilman from the southern district, therefore resolved that this convention dd heartily endorse and ratify the nomi nation of Hon. Geo W. Cheyney fol delegate to congress, and Hon. W. F Nichols as joint councilman, and pledge the honor of this convention and the Republican party of CoChise to do ali in their power to secure theil election.

REpUaLICaN PLATFORM.

1. The Republican party of the Ter ritory of ATizons announces its firm adherenes to the principles of the Re publican party Of the nation, which have been so triumphantiy YindieateS in preserving the Union and in pro- noting the welfare and prosperity of the people of the United States of America.
 2. As Republicans we express our admiration of the high personal char scter of President HarrisoR ID his ad ministration of the affairs of the nation |, and we congratulate Republicans gen eraliy upon the success of sB adminis- tration of the sffsirs of the people which has so sigDally promoted the prosperity of the country at home and abroad, and which has secured for if the profound respect of the nations of the world
 3. The Republican party. founded upon the largest liberty of the citizen, must insist that the elective franchise entrusted to the electors in every State shall be regarded with the sanctiiy that the Constitution. with its amend neuss, imposes. and it nnhesitatingly afirms the doctrine that the votes of tbe electors in Congressional elections in all the States shall under proper Congressional legislstion be freely cast and honestly counted,
 4. Congress in it's wisdom has arisen 10 the finaneial demands of the country and has provided a system of coinage of silver to meet the present financial emergencies of the people. and ws must insist. as a party. that an enlarged financial and industrial prosperity shall further be secured by the free coinage of silver.
 The governing power of tbe peo- pie under Territorial restrictions is limited and unsatisfactory. The growth of the Territory of Arizona. iis wealth and resources. as well as the necessi ties of oar citizens. require the early recognition of oar Territory as State. ssd we assert fl to be the duty of the

 We favor the continuation of the Chinese Restriction act.
 We favor free aud unrestricted coin- age of silver.

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM

The Democrats of Arizona in con
 veptioD assembled, reaffirm their ale. gience to tine Democratic party and re. assert the principles announced in re- peated national conventions and con. tinue in it's tune ho pored traditions. We demand that we be relieved from the sutelage of Territorial form of government and that we be admitted to Statehood. We are taxed as American citizens. but arenot allowed represent ation or a vote in making the laws that shall govern us. Uotil that time, we demand of Congress that home rule which shall allow us to elect ali of our executive. legislative and judicial as well as our county officers. These officers e1pend the money we appro- priate and pay in taxes and administer the statutes we enact and we should be allowed to choose those who shall exe~ cute them
 Of our own Legislature we demand the abolition of all useless offices, par- tieularly the offices of Attorney Gen- ersl, Commissioner of Immigration |, Superintendent of Schools and Terri- torial GeOlogist, and a reduction of salaries and emoluments of the rest,
 wherever practicable.
 And we demand a consolidation of county offices. to the end that the fees and emoluments taken from the people may be decreased and that taxation may be reduced to the lowest possible point.
