THE REPUBLICAN PRESS.
Loyal Republicans Determined to Main
 tain Its Integrity.

TUcsoN, Ariz., June 13, 1890.
 Editor CITIZEN No loyal Republl- can can read the editorial ill last nights Citizen, commenting upon an editori- al from the Pbenix Herald, without feeling his blood get hot from honest indignation Is it possible that three Federal officers in Arizona have enter ed into conspiracy to destroy the two leading Republican journals of this Territory? If this be true, the Chairman of the Territory Republican Committee should forthwith call the Republicans of the Territory together to the end that the loyal Republicans of Arizona who recommended the ap- pointment of these men to their pres ent places, may, if the accusations are found to be true, advise the President that these officials have grossly betray- ed the party which honOred them, and that they are no longer entitled to the confidence of the Chief EXecu- tive of this great nation.
 The governor, surveyor general, and marshal have all been charged by lldilc Mlbil llilS NIllliC their party Instead of the swift deni- al which their friends confidently eX- pected on the part of two of them, they all stand dumb before the Repub- licans of the Territory. They have apparently yet to learn the fact that private citizens, who have no mercen- ary interest in politics, do not spend r-time, energy and money to build up political parties for public officials to grow fat and insolent upon-to be used as child takes pleasure from q toy and then destroys it as a worth less thing-and it Is, therefore, a duty which the Republicans of Arizona owe to their party, however painful it may be in any particular case, to call the Presidents attention to the acts of whatever officers may be found so far wanting in political integrity as to malieiously contrive to destroy the Republican press of Arizona.
 JUSTICE.
 The above loyal sentiment appeared in last Saturdays Citizen and has excited much favorable comment among Republicans everywhere out side of the little coterie that by z personal organ hopes to control tht politics of Arizona.

A Modern InquisitOr.

Eh9t 2 perfectly inquisitorial dis position Census Superintendent Porter must havel First he commissions the enumerator to inquire into the fnan- cial difficulties, the private defects, and secret diseases of all the people, with the idaa of compelling answers under penalty of one buRdred dollars When he found this could not be made to work, he then undertook to get the physicians all over the country to violate their professional oaths and betrayed professional condolences, by revealing the diseases ana secret ma ladies of all their patients. Since he found that the physicians of the coun- try were men too honorable to stoop to such shameful dealing, he now di- reets that whGre the persons them selves refuse to answer tlsese wickedly matched questions, the enumsrator "should obtain the information by in quiry from neighbors, and enter it upon his schedule the same as if ob- tained from the head oF some mem Der of the family" No doubt Mr. Porter, by this last effort, will obtain host Of information In the many instances "neighbors" know more about other people than those people know about themselves, and ready to tell it. But anybody who would trust such "infornPation" would have to be of as remarkable disposition as is the author of this iDquisition himself We doubt whether the records of the Papacy contain the names of person more perfectly qualified for the office of Inquisitor-GepeFal than this record shows Census SppeFiRteHdert Robert r. Porter to be.

 A gentleman from Globe reports considerable activity in that place in regard to mining matters, that many are coming in and finding work, and that business there is decidedly pick ing up. From thirty-two tons of ore from a silver mine, seven miles from Globe, on being milled were taken twenty-six thousand dollars, besides the dump of lower grade which would still bring a return if handled.

THE attempt of Senator stewart to leeislate Major Powell, of the Geologic al survey has been unsuccessful, and the major is now better entrenched m his desirable position than ever before with fat appropriation at his dispos- al to further carry out his plans. The Nevada senator endeayored to have the bureau over which Major Powell presides transferred to the Agricultur- al department or abolished entirely, but this plan did not meet the views of the committee having the matter in charge and they declined to become a party Co piece of personal spite work. Major Powell's plans Of deal
 ing with the water storage and arid lands question may not meet the ap' proval of the people residing within the arid belt, but the opposition of Senator Stewart is not based upon that fact
 Indeed, the views of Senator Stewart are fully as objectionable as those ol Major Powell, aud so far as their per sonal fight is concerned the people o Arizona take very little interest Tn it.

 MT. Lusignan told me he saw MT. Nelson give Christ the combination on piece of brown paper, which piece of paper answers the description of the one MT.

To-pAY. at the request of the re- rnblican central committee of the Territory, the leaders and workers of ,bat marty will meet in Phenix for the nurpose of discussing the situation and to formulate plans for the com ing campaign. Among the subjects of discussion the dissensions existing in the party will probably come in for share of consideration by that body and the question will be determined whether the mountain shall go to Mahomet, or Mahomet to the noun tain. From our position of observa- tion we are inclined to believe that the mountain will still rear it's lofty peak in the same old familiar neigh borhood, when this conundrum is dis posed of, even though political tuner al be necessary to establish its lm- mutability. We have no doubt, how ever, that the matters brought before that meeting will be treated lalrly and justly and that all spirit Of re- taliation for real or fancied wrongs will be conspicuously absent Even the pacific admonition of Lige Hal ford will scarcely be necessary to sng gest tranquility and harmony, Tor the great party has the nerve to eNtlrpat' the carbuncle on its back with ever smile of enjoyment, if it is necessary to apply the knife. But this meeting of the republicans is not called for the especial purpose of crushing It's mlsh' governor. for it is not worth the effort

To Ask Again, but His Frank Letter Got
 It for Him.

A few months ago one of inc unfortunate in mates in the San Francisco Almshouse was inspired by the sensational statements in the newspapers with the belief that Joys Vegetable sarsaparilla would help him. But without money, how to get it was the question. Finally he wrote to the Edwin ". Joy Co.,, appealing to their generosity, and it was not unheeded the coveted preparation being sent by the next parcel delivery Its effect is best told in sub seqnent letter, from which we quote the follogS ingf-

IT is minated that William Zeck- endorff will resign as commissioner to the Worlds Fair in Chicago. This is a bold assertion to make in the face of the fact that it required an act of congress and the whole machinery of the Territorial courts for months to get the democratic officials out of several less lucrative positions with clouded titles. The party making such an announcement evidently failed to consider the staying quail ties of democratic official.

 Seven thousand cars of steers will be handled by the Santa Fe route from New Mexico and Arizona this year. One hundred and ten thousand steers will go out of New Mexico over this line alone. The Denver Gt Fort Worth road expects to handle over one hundred thousand head from New Mexico. The drive out will be less than in former years and il is about correct to state that the output of steers from New Mexico this year will be about 225 ,000. Now let us see how this will compare with our estimate of steers made March 8th, last. Our inquiry was as to the number of steers that would be sold if prices were satisfactory, and the replies received gave the number of two year olds and up at about 100000 Some few year. lings are being sold which will make the number up to about 225,000, the estimate of the railroad companies. Which goes to show that our Marclp estimate is being proven correct.- New Mexico Stock-Grower.
