THE people of Maryland owe debt of
gratitude to the Baltimore SIM for the brave
course it pursued in exposing questionable
measures and methods at Annapolis this
winter.
1t stood constantly ON the watch-tower and
indicated to the people the dement's of OBJ
jcctionable bills and the nature of the forces
behind them. Its revelations and admon-
itions were heard and felt at Annapolis d-
rcctly and indirectly. The great moral force
of the paper itself had its effect and when
this was corruborated by Il responsive public
sentiment the pressure became irresistible
In only one conspicuous instance did the
SIM fail to measure up toits standard of duty
as established by its treatment of other
measures namely, the canal steal. Leaving
out of view the plausible arguments made in
its behalf, here was a project degraded and
damned from the beginning by the methods
employed in promoting its success. The
Sun should have seen ut first. what 1t
saw at last, that no merirorious measure
could afford to he pressed by the means and
men used in that attempt t" rob the people.
However. there were men in Baltimore
Washington and Allegany county, who saw
through the game the conspirators Alex
ander, Black, Winship, Agnew, llitchins
Mertcns and others threw themselves in the
breach, and, aided by Senator Pearre, the
aniinuS of the scheme was fully exposed
The eight million dollars the sharper- were {"
make at the expense of the people will hardly
realize and the little railroad that was to carry
West Virginia coal into our market will not
be built this year.
The State, Allegany county especially,
owes these men rising vote of thanks.

A NUMBER of the most substantial citizens of Phoenix are interested in a project, now assuming definite shape, for the establishment at or near the falls of the Arizona canal of first-class milling plant. It is to be of ten stamps and be well equipped for working the ores of the vicinity. The site is an ex- celent one. The machinery is to be moved by the finest water power in the southwest, avoiding the heavy cost of boilers and engines and the continued expense of operation by steam. The free milling ores of Winifred district are less than ten miles away and hundreds of rich prospects and mines of Cave Creek district can be reached within q radius of fifteen miles. TIE REPUBLI- CAN hopes that this proposition will be "go." Many are the mines of the two districts named that are but awaiting such custom mill to start into busy operation. Many a poor prospector would be brought to atfiuence through its means and one of the richest min eral sections of Arizona would be given a wonderful stimulus.

TIME TO CRY HALT,

TIE REPUBLICAN has been since it's first issue firm and strong advocate of the Maricopa county subsidy to the North and South railroad. It is so now and will continue to be so, because it believes it essentially for the best interests of the Territory and especially for the Salt River Valley. But TIE REPUBLICAN condemns as being against the interests of the Territory and this valley such lawless expressions as were given place in the colums of the Gazette yesterday in it's article upon Col. Masten, who in his free and constitutional right sees fit to differ from us and from ma jority of the community. It is his privilege to differ from us and to protect what he considers his rights and interests as long as he uses lawful means to do so, as much as it is our right to try to advance our in- terests, even though they may injure his.
 However much TIE REPUBLICAN may differ from Colonel Masteie it has learned that he has been one of the greatest benefactors to this valley, and that to him and to his Maricopa and Phoenix railroad, Salt River Valley owes almost all of it's present prosperity. On this subject Friday evenings Herald truthfully says "The Southern Pacific people have, however, by the en- deayors of the Maricopa and Phoenix railroad and much solicitation on the part of the people given this val ley such rates for hay and grain that our farmers now compete successfully with California"
 To no one, more than to Col. Masten is this due. Through his energy the Southern Pacific has within the past few days offered 5000 towards building a wagon road to the Bradshaw mining district, which will, if completed, bring thousands of tons of ore through Phoenix and carry back thousands of dollars worth of supplies that are now carried from other points.
 TIE REPUBLICAN cannot in too strong terms condemn the suggestions of mob law made by the Gazette in its attack on Col. Masten. They do more harm to community than can be done in any other way.

"Of all sports baseball doubly discounts them all. That game is corker, for good, clean fun. 1 will tell you why. You sec, you go to the races, wait for an hour for them to begin, lose a thunder ing lot of money, and it is all over in a minute. But the ball grounds are accessible, the admission modest, and you can have two hours of chronic fun looking on. It is hard game to play, but delightful for the spectators. It is grand good game for boys There is nothing about it to taint the youthful mind. Baseball stimulates local pride, and that is first cousin to patriotism 1; it is absolutely free from gambling, and the local pride takes the place of the pool room. Not that I object to pool rooms myself. I do not wish to pose as the secretary of any society of the saints. It won't do. The boys know me too well.

INCONSISTENCY.

TIE REPUBLICAN has not denounced the Republican press and party of Ari- zona as traitors who are playing into the hands of the Democratic party. Neither does THE REPUBLICAN believe that any considerable number of the party in the Territory at large are so doing.
 But how inconsistent it is for a self styled Republican paper to, in one issue, glory over the defeat oi the it. legal Democratic holdovers-a defeat brought about by the action of the Governor and Attorney General, and then, in few subse- quent issues, abuse those officers like pickpockets because they do not sane ton the acts of the illegal holdover officials, and make themselves liable to impeachment by unlawfully paying out the Territorial funds on contracts which the courts have virtually decided were illegal and therefore void.
 TIE REPUBLICAN does not believe that ninety-nine out of every hundred Re- publicans in Arizona are set of jackanapes who do not understand the motives of the few iactious spirits who are treacherously trying to give control of the Territory to the Democratic party. Let us suppose case or two and be it remembered they are not very far fetched either:
 Suppose the Chairman of the Repub- lican Territorial Committee should go out upon the streets of Phoenix and throwing up his hat howl himself into a two-weeks illness in glorying over a Democratic municipal victory. Does anybody believe that ninety-nine out of hundred Republicans in Ari- zona would consider him loyal Republican? Would they not rather think that in common decency he should have resigned his member ship in the Territorial Committee be- fore making so public display of his treason to his party?
 DuppoSt tSdll tlldt tHc Nildii lidii oi the County Republican Committee in a Convention where he presides calls for vote pledging himself and the mem bers of that convention to the support of Republican ticket and then that Chairman goes to the polls and votes the Democratic ticket, will the Republicans of Marcopa county believe him true to his party? Will they not rather believe that for honorable manhood's sake he ought to have resigned before commit ting such an act of party treason?
 As to the admission of Arizona into Statehood, the history of the past thirty years shows that the dominant party in Congress does not with any degree of alacrity admit States that will send Sen ators and Representative to their body who are opposed to them politically. To carry Arizona for the Republican side needs the unanimous support of the Republicans of the Territory. If we fail in this the fault of keeping Arizona out of the Union lies at the door of the malcontents who are making this fac tional fight in the interests of the Demo- cratic party.

THE BABY.

The little tottering baby feet
 With faltering steps and slow, With pattering echoes soft and sweet
 Into my heart they go; They also go, in grimy plays, In muddy pools and dusty ways, Then through the house in trackful maze They wander to and fro, The baby hands that clasp my neck
 With touches dear to me, Are the same hands that smash and wreck The inks and foul to see; They pound the mIrror with q cane, They rend the manuscript in twain, Widespread destruction they ordain
 In wasteful jubilee. The dreamy, murm'ring voice
 That coos its little tune, That makes my listening heart rejoice,
 Like birds in leafy June; Can wake in midnight dark and still, And all the air with bowling fill, That splits the ear with echoes shrill,
 Like comets out of tune.

PEOPLE of Arizona should take up the question of the Desert Land Law and pour petitions and remonstrances into Congress in such volume that that body will be compelled to notice them. By the recent ruling of Attor- ney-General Miller all the land in Ari. zona is practically withdrawn from set clement. This is serious state of affairs and the people must recognize the import aDce of it. Congress should amend the matter by new laws immediately and TIE REPUBLICAN believes it will if the subject is promptly called to Congress- attention. Other States and Territories are moving in this matter and Arizona should not be behind her neighbors.

The Chinese In New York.
Denver Republican,

Denver Republican,
 A short time ago the New York Erening Sun gave three columns of space to an account of Chinese girl, Is years old, who had been held slave and inhumanly treated by her Chinese master in the chinatown of New York city. The San Francisco Chronicle, commenting upon this, says that stories of this sort have been so frequently told in San Francisco that they have ceased to have any particular value as news. Chinese slavery and Chinese barbarism are old things on the Pacific coast.
 As our San Francisco contemporary says, the New Workers are learning their first lessons in regard to the Chi nese. We are glad that they are learn- ing these lessons, for it will do New York and all the rest of the country good. The West can send to the East no better missionaries than Chinese. Chinese tell the story of their degrada- tion and barbarism wherever they are in sufficient numbers to make what is known as Chinese quarter.
 Ii, after listening to some admirer of the Chinese tell of how badly treated that race is by the Chinese Ecclusiod act, New York audience would make visit to the Chinese quarter of that city, the wisdom of the exclusion act would be made apparent to each visitor. No argument in favor of Chinese immigra- ton can withstand the force of the smell which pervades every Chinatown. No man can go through the Chinese quarter of San Francisco without seeing that large increase in the Chinese population of this country would be menace to everything in Christian civilization that white men hold dear.
 Gradually the population of the Chi nese quarter of New York is increasing It is very far from as large as the popu- lation of San tranciscO's Chinatown; {; but the New York Chinatown closely resembles the Chinese quarters of San Francisco, and it only requires sufii- cient increase in its population to present all the horrible features of Chi nese civilization. With this increase in the number of the Chinese of New York City, the New York people will be forced to take the Western view of the Chinese question, and when they do that all danger of the repeal of the Chinese exclusion act will be removed.

PHGNIx is one of the cheapest places in the West for domestic supplies. With the single item of clothing excepted a family can live as comfortably in this city on as little money as it can in almost any part of the Union. Meat is surely not dear at seven to twelve cents per pound, milk at five cents per quart, eggs at twelve cents per dozen and flour, vegetables, fruit and other necessaries selling at corresponding prices. As is shown by the statements of physicians published in this mornings REPUBLIC AN no more beautiful climate for children can be found anywhere on the globe. So, considering all things, the man of family makes no mistake when he set ties in Phoenix.

HEARD good story the other day on one of Ph9nix' young men who has been paying close attention to one of our fairest young ladies. In the family are two little tots aged about seven and five years, and of course they are great friends to the young man. The young gentleman in question called a little earlier than usual few evenings ago and the mother being out the little folks were still up. Finally the elder sister suggested that it was time for them to go upstairs, and calling them to come along said she would go with them.
 "But who will stay with Mir. B." said one of the juveniles.
 70, guess he will not object to re- maining here for a few minutes," was the answer.
 "Is Jennie in the kitchen?" again queried the little one, referring to the colored domestic employed in the family.
 "Yes, think so, why?"
 "Well why can't she come in and stay with Mir. B-- till you come down."
 The question was not answered and am informed the young man is debating as to whether he ought to ever call again or not. CARLOS.

speclalties in Clothing

Important to all. We would say that
we have the largest, best assorted, cheap
est, most complete and elegant stock Of
clothings and furnishings ever shown in
Bennington. We hardly expect to be be-
lieved when we tell you that we can sell
a good, strong, serviceable suit of clothes
for ten dollars, suitable for gentlemen's
wear, but such is the fact. We have a
great variety of suits at this price, among
which can be found suits which are
usually sold for twelve, fifteen and even
eighteen dollars. These ten dollar suits
excite surprise even among experts, when
on examination, they notice the fine
quality of fabric and their makeup. In
fine goods we have suits of the finest
fabrics, made and trimmed much better
than the average class of custom made.
The prices range from $l5 to $50. They
are made by manufacturers who employ
only expert workmen, and make spec
ialty of this class of goods. Our hats,
etc, we buy in full case lots instead of
dozens, and from the manufacturers di-
rect, thereby saving the jobbers' profit.
We really can't tell you Of one-half the
good things in store for you at AL Main
street, but we cordially invite you all to
call and see for yourselves. We have
one price for all, and guarantee all goods
as represented. COLE q BURT, 441 Main
