the county that he would be able to
do as much or more for Kenosha
than Mr.. Caswell has done. The
TELEGRAPH COURIER wants the man
who will best represent Kenosha
county and city, and while Mr.. Cas-
we'll has done considerable for the
harbor. he has not secured any
thing like the amount for it that
Waukegan representative has for
that sand beach. There is a well
defined disposition among a large
number Of Kenosha County Repub-
licans to give Senator Cooper a
chance to see what he can do. He
has had considerable legislative
experience, having served several
wears in the State Senate, is a pol
ished orator, a man of undoubted
ability and has close friends high in
political circles already. Besides
these considerations, he has helped
out the Republicans of KeEosha
County in several campaigns and is
entitled to some gratitude on that
score. The district will be sure Of
an able representative whether Mr..
Cooper or Mr.. Caswell is nominal
ed. The rivalry between the
friends of the two candidates should
not be permitted to grow into bit
terness. for whether Mr. CasWell
promised not to appear as candi-
date when Racine County presented
a favorite son or not, the choice
rests with the people and should be
made in a spirit of fairness and with
a view to the best interests OF the
people. Kenosha County is inter
ested in the growth of Kenosha city
and the man who will do the best
for Kenosha is the man the Kenosha
County delegates will want to sup
port. Mr.. Cooper promises to see
that this city gets an appropriation
for it's harbor in accordance with it's
merits if he is elected, and there is
certainly room for Improvement
over the past when the immense
sums Waukegan gets are taken into
consideration.

North when you did move out and
try to establish the Southern con

certain defeat stares you in the face
if you attempt your boycotting
scheme against the North ? Do
you not know that such work will
result in injury to you thousand
times greater than you can infiict
upon the merchants of the North,
and the North, generally? Wasl

you never have accepted, the results

Republican Senators have adopted
one of the maXims of that great and
wise Republican, Abraham Lincoln,
that st S no use to cross a bridge
before you get to it, and it is not
probable that any definite announce
ment Of what the majority of the
Senate proposes to do will be made
until the appropriation bills and the
tariff bill are out of the way. The
Election committee is carefully con-
sidering the bill with view of
making changes in it to supply GER
tain defects which have been pointed
out.
The Southern Senators and Rep
resentatives are in state only a
little short of panic stricken on &C
count of the strength displayed by
the Farmers Alliance, which, &C
cording to news received here,
seems to have swallowed the Demo
cratic organizations of several
Southern States entirely.
The Republican State associations
in this city are unusually active in
making preparations to take part in
the Congressional campaign. Among
the applications for membership

citation at it's last meeting was tie

JOHN 7. YULE,
Chairman Co. Com.

The county convention meets at
the Court House Saturday, August
9th, and the delegates at the con-
vention should keep in mind the
fact that while Kenosha County is
small. it has it's interests to look
after. Kenosha city is not large
town. but it would be much larger
if our naturally fine harbor received
the attention from Congress it
deserves. Waukegan has not the
semblance of a natural harbor; its
shore line is straight and sloping
and makes good bathing ground,
but the activity and energy of the
Congressman from that district Sc
cures appropriations of fifty thous-
and dollars a year, while last year
Kenosha received only ten thousand
and this year only ST, 500. These
are larger amounts than Kenosha
has received before, but nothing
like what it ought to have received,
and if Senator Cooper should be
nominated for Congressman by the
assistance of the Kenosha County
delegates, he would be under OBJ
legations to give the Kenosha har-
Dor more attention. 1t is believed by
many of the best informed men of

Senate: Pass the Election Bill,
Please.

One Governor, Gordon, of Geor
gia, and nearly all of the leading
papers and numerous so-called
statesmen. all of the South, have
threatened that if the Federal Elec-
ton bill becomes a law, they Will
not buy anything of Northern mcr-
chants. Governor Gordon is par
ticularly singing in his remarks, as
is his organ, the Atlanta Co"stit"-
ton. What a ridiculous and un-
favorable position these threats
place the South in. All under the
sun that the Federal Election bill
proposes to do is to secure for the
Nation strictly honest elections. BY
these threats to boycott and this
bombastic talk. the South tells the
world that it does not want honest
elections. and that it will not have
them if it can possibly prevent it;
that one of the means it will adopt
to prevent the enactment Of such
law is to refuse to buy anything Of
Northern merchandise boycott
them. What an absolutely idiOtic
proposition. The South owes nine
tenths Of it's present new prosperity
to Northern brain and Northern
money. It can buy what it needs
on better terms, at better figures,
of the North, than it can purchase
elsewhere, yet the great, head
strong Southern BOBBY boy says
that if the Nation. through it's high
est Legislative body, proposes to
have honest elections in this coun-
try, he will bite his nose off in an
effort to punish the North. For
shame upon Governor Gordon, his
Democratic organ and the so called
Southern statesmen, for their bitter
opposition to SO righteous piece
of legislation as the Federal Eec-
ton bill promises to prove. But,
gentlemen of the South, boycott if
you desire; the very fact that you
propose to boycott is further and
excellent evidence that it is time
such q law was enacted. Your
threats to boycott will not scare the
Republican Senate and the Repub-
lican President any more than your
threats in 1860 scared the North
and prevented it from electing
Abraham Lincoln as President
You are old enough and have had
experience enough and know enough
about the North. to know better
than to attempt to scare the people
of the Northern states. They can
not be scared. You could not scare
the North with your old slave driv-
ing whips; you could not scare the

REPLYING TO COL. HASTEN.

Col. Masten, the Vice President of the Maricopa and Phoenix Railroad Com pany, addresses us letter, in which he inuuires to whom he should make q definite proposition relative to the ex- tension of the road and it's exemption from taxation?
 In our judgment, to the Board of Su' pervisors of Maricopa County. If the proposition were made to that body in regular form and in way that would leave no doubt on the minds of it's members as to the sincerity of the company in the matter, it would undoubtedly receive their cor dial support, and that would be of value before the legislature.
 THE REPUBLICAN hasn't the least doubt that the people of the county ano of the Territory will readily grant sucl an exemption from taxation, not onlyir the case of Mir. Masten's road, but O any enterprise calculated to accommo date the people and to build up thu country. We are decidedly favorable t' the exemption from taxation of mill and smelters for the reduction of ore and industrial works generally, ano have already fully expressed ourselve in reference to it.

FRUITS OF THE SEASON.
Notes on the Orchard and Garder
 Products of the Valley.

Notes on the Orchard and Garden
 Products of the Valley.
 Fruit is not very abundant as yet and prices are keeping up well. About all fruit sells at about cents pound.
 Peaches of the Strawberry and Early Crawford varieties, are coming in slowly. Apricots have disappeared from the market, but few late ones yet hang in some of the orchards.
 White figs are plentiful; the black ones are not yet ripe.
 Sweetwater and Early Mission grapes have been on the stands for over a week. Malagas came next and now Muscats are coming forward.
 Plums are very scarce this year.
 The small pear is in market, but Bart lett's and other large kinds will need fully month more ripening.
 Strawberries are still plentiful and meet with ready sale 20 cents a pound.
 Watermelons are coming in freely, but are not as yet drug upon the market. They retail according to size, at from 5 to 20 cents each.
 Muskmelons are in such heavy sup ply as to be nominal in price. Market gardeners offer them at about three for nickel.
 In the town supply of garden truck" the Chinese have everything in their own hands and charge what they please. Prices are not exorbitant, how ever. Potatoes, excellent in quality, sell at 21a cents per pound. Tomatoes have not been in long and retail at 4 and 5 cents. Green corn, summer squash cab bage, etc., are all in full supply.

TIE Tucson Star is for Pheenix as the capital, but thinks the Insane Asy- lum should be removed to cooler point. This indicates that the Star has not given the subject the attention it deserves. It will, on reflection, remem- Der that in California the Insane Asy- lums are not located on the coast or on the higher ground and in the cooler atmosphere, but in the hot valleys, as at Napa and Stockton. And this is not a matter of accident or the result of political gerrymandering. Two years ago when two new asylums were located, one was put at Agnew's in the Santa Clara valley, and the other at San Bernardino. At this time the coast and high ground sites were proposed and opposed by the leading authorities in that state and elsewhere on the treat ment of the insane. The patients suffer comparatively little from heat, but suc' cumb quickly to cold snaps. The In sane Asylum of Arizona is located in ex' actly the spot that body of experts or insanity would have selected. but little money could be spent to advantage ir improving the sanitary conditions and adding comforts to the building.

Shaved Maricopa County Warrant.

well-known Phenix" business" man, came to the office of the Board of Super visors yesterday, and, holding out a county warrant, dated May 10, said T have been holding this for couple of months and now want to sell it. How much is it worth?" A bystander of- fered ninety cents on the dollar for it. The trade was made, the seller put $45 in his pocket as the equivalent of a $50 warrant and went away satisfied, while the purchaser stepped into the Trea- surer's office and got $50 in hard coin for the slip of paper. The joke lies in the fact that Maricopa county warrants are never made out until there is cash in the Treasury to pay them and therefore the paper in question was worth it's face when issued.

we do not believe that the homes and the business of this valley should be taxed to such an extent without an adequate equivalent. The people in their eager ness to get road had almost forgotten that possibly they might pledge them selves to road that might be worse than none at all.
