HAMPSTEAD WAsHBURSE, the newly elected Republican Mayor of Chicago, is son of the famous diplomat and states man, Eihu B. Washburne, and nephew of the six other famous members of that great Washburne family of Maine. This representative of the next generation has already shown himself possessed of many of the qualities which distin- guished his father. Like his father and all his uncles, Hampstead Washburne is an uncompromising Republican, believ- ing in the principles of that party and that all reforms are possible under the strict enforcement of them. A native of Illinois, he was educated at the old home of his ancestors in Maine, attended the same school at Rents Hill where his father prepared himself for more serious college efforts. From this school he graduated in 1871 and immediately joined his father in Paris, where he wit messed some of the stirring scenes which accompanied the formation of the French Repu bile. He then entered the univer sity at Bonn, Germany, where he studied two years, and returned to America to finish his college education at the Uni versity of Wisconsin at Madison. He graduated in 1874 and went to Chicago. Judge Elliott Anthony, when elected to the bench in 1876, appointed Mir. Wash l,,r i'm oh and in this capacity he served until 1885, when the Republicans nominated and elected him to the office of City Attorney. In this office, to which he was reelected for a second term, he was not only faith iul servant, but showed that rare tact and discrimination which enables an officer of great municipal corporation to do justice to the individual who may be unfortunate enough to appear as de- iendant against him. The pledges he placed before the convention that noIni- mated him for Mayor were more ex- plicit than those in the platform. Like his father, he rejected the old definition of Talleyrand that language was in vented to conceal thoughts. He studied the question of Chicago's needs in the way of reform and pledged himself to these item by item in language which could not be misconstrued. In this he showed himself worthy the name made illustrious by the seven brothers of the preceding generation. He is a Wash hnrne

AN aftermath of the campaign of l89J is presented in the suit of M. Il. Will Hams against the Board of Supervisors for s225 alleged to be due for services as Assistant District Attorney. It will be remembered that TIE REPUBLICAN called attention to the employment of an As sistant District Attorney last fall and asked Of the old Board of Supervisors by what authority they hired an assistant when the county paid the District At torney S25OO year for performing the work. One or two of these quarterly claims of $225 had been allowed, but the Board became alarmed at their high-handed proceedings when TIE RE- PUBLICAN began an expose and refused to allow for the last quarter. The pres ent Board, not believing the action of its predecessors in employing Mir. Will Hams legal, also refused to allow the claim, hence tine suIt.

Down the Gila in a Boat

From the Yuma Times
 Two men arrived here last week who had accomplished the dangerous feat oi navigating the Gila river from source to mouth.
 About year ago they started from Los Angeles in wagon and went on a prospecting trip through Southern Arizona and into New Mexico. About six months ago they sold their horses and wagon and started down the GiIa in boat of their own making. Their starting point was in the Black range, New Mexico, where the Gila has it's source. They say the scenery in the co1ons oi the Gila is nearly as grand as the Colorado cafions. They met with no special incident until the high water of the February floods began to come down. Their bat was upset and lost. but they built another and started on. In some of the cafions the water rose to enormous heights, owing to the narrow channel in which it was confined. The crookedness of the river makes it's total length about so miles. The men hunted and trapped on the way, but met with only moderate success. They claim to be the first who ever made the trip in boat the whole length of the river.

TIE Postal Subsidy bill is already making its effect felt. The announce ment is made that the Inman company have decided to put on the seas two magnificent new Atlantic steamships, built in American yards by American workman, flying the American flag and manned by American officers and sea men. The vessels are, it is stated, to be modelled after the City of Paris. They will be of lJ,500 tons. register, and it is proposed to make them in every respect the equals Of the finest Atlantic grey hounds afoat. The probabilities are that they will be constructed by the Cramps, of Philadelphia, and the A,0O0, ,O0O~hey will cost will go into the pockets of American workers. The con. struction of these vessels in this country would never have been considered but for the Postal Bounty law, which the free traders fought tooth and nail when 1t was before Congress. If they are built more will speedily follow. The work of Republican Congress in pass- Ing the measure to encourage American steamship interests is rapidly proving Its value in very practical way.

lN AN interview in the San Francisco ETdminer Collis P. Huntington, presi. dent Of the Southern Pacific, strongly favors railroad consolidation, claiming that by this means roads can be oper. ated much cheaper, and better service secured for the people. If Mir. Hunt. ington actually believes in this princi- pie, as he claims, he should immedi. ately consolidate all the collateral branches of the Southern Pacific with the main stem, and do away with the useless expenditure made necessary by independent management for every lit- tie branch line.

It affords pleasure to the management of TIE REPUBLICAN to be entitled to ac- knowledge steady and marked increase in the circulation. This, doubtless, is the best, as it is the most substantial, evidence that could be given that it is gaining the approval and confidence of the people. The more so is this gratify- ing, as the new subscribers rank among the best and most substantial residents of Arizona; these invariably have mani tested their kindly feeling, not simply by becoming subscribers, but by their accompanying favorable and kindly ex- pressions of appreciation.
