SAYS the Nogales Herald: "The newspaper fraternity of Arizona did not fare very well in the late election, three of their number being candidates and all defeated. In Cochise County the "Cousin Jacks" knocked out George Meek, of the Epitapk, for the Assembly. Ed s. Gill, of TIE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN, was knocked out for the same position by the Mormons, and c. M.

TIE editorial reference to Ex-Delegate Du Bois, of Idaho, in our morning con temporary will no doubt be great sur prise to the friends of the coming Sena- tor, not only at his home, but in Wash ington, where MT. Du Bois is conceded to be one of the most exemplary of rep resentatives, not only in his public but private life-in fact he is cited as an example of correct moral conduct. Con- meeting his name with lewd or ungen- tlemanly behavior is entirely unwar- ranted, and whether prompted by ig- norance or malice, is equally to be con demned. It is possible that the editors mind is confused, and he has been mis- takenly crediting the attributes of the Delegate from Arizona to the gentleman from Idaho.

SAYS the Prescott Journal Miner "Talk about the National Republican Central Committee or any other com mittee putting $20,O00, or any other sum into the campaign of Arizona, seems to be too absurd to deny. Demo cratic papers continue to assert it with such persistency, however, that in the course of time they may come to believe 1t, but of course no one else will. If the National Republican Committee had any surplus funds to put into the cam paign, it seems they could have applied it where it would have done more good than in Arizona. At least that is the way it looks since the result has been announced. There was not single dollar put into the campaign in Ari- zona by Republicans except what was necessary to defray the legitimate ex- penses of the canvass, and it is safe to say that Mark Smith and his Demo cratic friends and managers spent more money than did the Republican candi- date and his friends"

 The trouble with the Republican party in Arizona is that it has too many men who want to stand back on their dignity and wait to be called as first United States Senators, instead of going to work and assisting the party in its struggles against Mormonism and Bourbonism This fear of displacing assumed Senatorial dignity is what defeated Cheyney
