THE GENTLE RAIN.
A Refreshing Downpour Throughout
California

SAN Francisco, May 7.-California is
on the southernly end Of the present
storm. The rainfall has been heavy in
the northern counties OF the state and
light showers have fallen at Monterey
and as far south as Delano. From the
last report it is probable that the San
Joaquin valley will receive few light
showers within twenty-fcur hours. The
San Joaquin valley is the only section Of
the state where the rain is really re-
quired. The grain crop in Fresno and
Tulare counties is reported as not prom
ising, except on the east side. The lack
Of moisture is cause for the Growers re-
port this year that the crop will be
about half as large as that OF other
years. In other places the rain will do
no damage to wheat unless succeeded by
a hot sun. Vineyards Of the northern
and middle counties will not be Injured
by the present rain. Berries will not be
marketed as early as anticipated. Cher
riss will be improved by the rain.

THE Mormons in the Territory num-
bers about twelve hundred, which may
be reasonably counted as democratic
Eliminating this vote, the strength OF
the two politial parties in Arizona is adj
united to be about equal, Should the
democrats consent to make virtue OF
necessity by favering an anti Mormon
clause, with the view of influencing
congress, what would they gam? Even
with such pro yision inserted in the
constitution, there Is but remote pos
sibility that Congress will admit Ari-
IONA to the Union.
1t would be political suicide for the
democrats to abandon the Mormons
The party would be forever lost as gov
ernirg factor in the politics of territory,
Mark Smith would have served his
last term in Congress, and since he is
likely to be a member of the constitu-
tional convention, and in the event of
his election as such, he will certainly op-
pose the adoption of 'the test OATH
identical or similar to that embodied in
the constitution of Idaho, against poly
gamy as at present taught in the Nor
mon church by Hiram Woodruff,
Brigham Young's successor.
The foregoing is portion of an editor
ial published in the last issue of the
Silver Belt. The position of the Nor.
man majority Of the democratic party

NEW ORLEANS AFFAIR.
Comemts Of the Press on the Grand
Jury Finding.

CHICAGO, May 6.-Editorial comments
on the New Orleans grand jury report
vary somewhat. 1t is confessed by
competent authority, says the New
York evening Post, that the machinery
of criminal justice has broken down
and crimes have to be punished by rev.
olutionary tribunal.
The New York Herald says: 1t is no
time to sermoniZe about mob violence.
An uprising of the people is not mob.
Cincinnati 1ines-Star: We believe
it will be the common opinion that far
from showing any grave weakness In
in CUR social.or political system, the out
come will demonstrate strength and ef-
ficiency for popular government.
The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says: The grand jury's return will meet
the approval of the entire country 1t
gives warning to criminals OF Europe
that they will find no welcome in this
country.
The Philadelphia Telegraph says: The
people OF this country, thanks to the in
solert course Of the Italian government,
will not seriously concern themselves
with the question whether respectable
mob of the "best citizens" are brought
to punishment" but they are mighty
interested in the question whether the
greatest city in the south has to be
placed where no human life is safe, and
where the government may be looked to
in vain to exercise legitimate authority
LONDON, May 6.-The st. James Ga
zette, commenting upon the finding OF
the grand jury in the New Orleans
lynching cases. says: The jury did
just what might have been expected,
and its findings possess polemical inter
est which it may be feared Marquis di
Rudini wall not fully appreciate.

TAKE HOLD,

The next few years will witness great
changes and raped strides in this section
Of the Union, and 20 take advantage of
the current Of events We cannot be too
watchful, or labor to hard. There are
tides in the affairs of cities as we'll as
men, which If taken at the flood, lead on
to fortune.
United and persistent action with a
purpose, is the secret OF success in all
public enterprises. Very little is &C.
complished il left to mere chance.
Everywhere We see the results Of organ
lied efforts, producing progress and I'LL
ing the world with gigantic enterprises,
which individual effort and capital
would be inadequate to undertake.
What one man alone Is powerless to &C
compllsh, a united community can carry
forward to a successful conclusion. This
is nowhere more apparent than in the
west, where gigantic enterprises await
brain and capital.
We desire that Tucson should not
miss her golden opportunity TO make
herself mistress Of the commerce of
southern Arizona for all time. We have
the advantage Of established trade and
large capital, and with united action on
the part of our people, We can have an
assured future.
Tucson is not dependant upon the
success and prosperity Of some single
camp, but the prosperity OF all mining
camps and every other interest IN the
territory. This intimate relation with
all sections should be maintained, and to
accomplish this end more railroad tracks
are needed. The question Of railroads
we consider one Of vital Importance, and
Tucson should be made the objective
point of as many as possible. Likewise
we need the establishment OF msnufac-
tories and other industries. These things
will hardly come OF their own accord,
but il our citizens act collectively
through our Board OF Trade, and
make the necessary effort to secure the
data upon which some business calculs-
tions could be based, there is little
doubt that we could secure the favora-
bic consideration of outside capital
IL community cannot see and ad-
vocste its own advantages and interests,
it need not expect outsiders to do so.

IT need rot surprise anybody for Mr..
Blaine to make public at any time a
statement over his signature positively
forbidding the use of his name as can
didate for the presidency and announc-
ing himoelf as in favor OF the renomina-
ton Of the president. Only two things
have prevented his doing so before this.
President Harrison has not decided
whether he wishes to sgain become the
candidate, in fact it is we'll known to his
friends that he dees not wish to be pres
ident. Mr.. Clarkson, the newly elected
president of the National Republican
League, expressed himself as believing
that everything was tending towards
the denomination of President Harrison
by reclamation, unless he should decline
to allow his name to be presented to the
convention.

TO TEACH THE LADIES.
An Importation Of Designer OF La
dies Gowns.

NEW YORK, April 16.-Among the
cabin passengers who arrived from Eu-
rope today by the steamship IA Bour
gogne," were fourteen Partisan design
ers of ladies' fashionable gowns. These
artists have been engaged by the enter
prising managers Of The New York and
Paris Young Ladies' Fashion Bazaar, to
contribute exclusively to the columns
Of that populer magazine. All OF them
are we'll known in New York, for their
Astor, the VanderbIlts, Mrs. Cleveland
and Mrs. Marshall o. Roberts are among
the society leaders who have worn
gowns designed by these artists. Dur
ing an interview with a reporter one OF
the designers said:
paris still leads the world of fashion
although Eugene no longer sits on the
throne. Partisan gowns have a style
about them that can not be equaled.
That, suppose, ia the reason why we
have been engaged to come to America
to teach the ladies Of your beautiful
country, through the columns Of The
New York and Paris Young Ladies'
Fashion Bazaar, how this wonderful crea-
tons of the dress makers art are con-
structed. It is our business to design
the handsomest and most fashionable
gowns for the different seasons OF the
year. These designs will be printed in
colors and will be accompanied by such
clear instructions as to the selection of
materials and the cutting and fitting OF
the garments that no woman OF sense
will have the least difficulty in making
perfect fitting gowns herself. It is a
kpack, a science, to fashion a gown that
will MAKE o very small and very feshy
lady appear slim. Not one designer out
of a thousand can hit upon the trus
lines unless he makes it the study of q
lifetime. You ought to see the May
number Of our Magazine. We have de-
signs in it that will take the hearts Ct
the ladies by storm. They do not get
a new dress made up every day. and /
can tell you it is an important item to
get the best magazine, and the very
latest and most exquisite Paris styles,
and have it fashioned like the one that
is best suited to their figure

THE FITNESS OF CANDIDATES

The peculiar fitness OF individuals for
the position which they seek, should be
the point most closely scrutinized by
the electors. In this particular, We can
truly say, that the nominees of the re-
publican party of Pima county possess in
marked degree, eminent fitness for the
honorable Office to which they aspi re-.
Mr. Richardson has long been resident
of this county, we'll vsrsed in her wants
and requirements, and can in every way
be of great benefit to the territory in
convention assembled.
Mr.. Hartt was raised in the empire
state. is thoroughly converssnt with all
that constitutes good government, is
thoroughly capable and honest.
Mr.. Freeman has long been in public
life, having been elected treasurer Of
Humboldt county, Nevada, when only
twenty-on years old, reelected to the
seme Office, and resigned before the ex-
piration of his second term to take up
bis residence in Lander county, which
was at that time sprisging rapidly to
the front as the great mining centre Of
Nevada, and so great were the necessi-
ties for division Of the county, that by
common consent, the legislature or
ganized Elko county from the eastern
portion Of Lander, and the governor Of
the state appointed Mr.. Freeman com.
missioner to orgarize the new county,
and SO well and faithfully did he per-
form his duties, the grateful people Of
Elko elected him their first treasurer,
and reelected him two subsequent
terms, making five terms as treas
urer. He was appointed receiver of
the United States land Office by Presi-
dent Grant and Regent Of the Univer-
sity Of Nevada by the governor. Was
elected by large majority and served a
term in the state legislature of Nevada,
was member of the executive commit
tee Of the republican state central com.
mittee and chairman of the county cent
raj committee. He was a strong sup
porter of, and did yeoman service for
Senator j. p. Jones who took advantage
of the opportunity to partly repay the
obligation thus incurred by going to the
White House and making q personal re-
quest of President Arthur that MIR.
Freeman be appointed postmaster of
Tucson. The request was complied
with, but he resigned the position be
fore the expiration Of the term Of Office
to accept more congenisl business pos
ition. He was appointed Chancellor of
the University of Arizona by Gov. VOL
fey and re-appointed by Gov. Irwin and
will. with the two other gentlemen on
the republican ticket, be elected dele
gate to the constitutional convention to
be held in Phenix next September. Our
appeal to the voters of Pima is to elect
these three nominees OF the republican
party. They are worthy, competent and
honest.

THE PIMA COUNTY TICKET,

THE PIMA COUNTY TICKET,
The Pima County Constitutional ticket
is one that recommends itself to the
average citizen as being composed of
intelligent, honest men, who will con-
tribute largely to the future Of Arizona,
through their labors in the coming con-
vention. They are men who stand out
before the people squarely on their pas
record, Men who have been sought to
accept the delegateships, and have in no
single instance sought the places; in fact
they are OF that class who are disap-
pointed at being called upon to fill re-
sponsible positions, because they feel
the great responsibility attached to the
work, and do not feel that they can af.
ford to give the labor and time the posi-.
tons demand, without personal loss
and inconvenience. Still when they &C
cept trust at the hands of their fellow
citizens, they do so with the intention Of
doing justice to the occasion, whatever
the personal sacrifice may be. Such gen.
tlemen, is the composition Of tie repub-
lican standard bearers; they are wool
through and through, and measure
three feet to yard. No shoddy, and no
fiimsy pretexes.
The republicans will do well to bear
in mind that every possible scheme will
be put afloat to divert your vote from
the ticket the convention has nominated.
Some Of the pleadings Will be personal
friendships, others the avenging of po-
litical wrongs, or the satisfaction of So
cial grievances, while the young will be
called upon to stand by the young and
the old by tie old; but never allow
all this TO obliterate from your
mind for one moment that it is
all taffy, and that you can scratch any
Of the three democratic an1idates and
get drop Of bourbon blood. Should
any of them be allowed to enter the
Territorial Convention and participate
in the actions of that important body,
you will realize too late that you have
elected democrats who will forget their
personal friendship to you, when it
comes to downing every republican prin-
ciple and throttling free speech and
fair ballot when it was raised in behalf
Of our republican institutions. The
time TO remember what they will do is
before you cast your vote, as not one Of
you doubts but that every act
Of the democratic delegates will
be in harmony with the strong and
ofttimes bitter doctrines Of democracy.
Why should republicans who differ from
these men lose one single vote through
sentiment; your principles are not their
= principles, and when you cast a vote
toward sending a democratic delegate
to represent you, you repudiate your
own belief, and do an injury to those
believing as you do. There is something
more than a personal matter about all
this; principles of vast import are in
volyed, and whether you eat, sleep or
drink with democrats cast you ballot for
the republican ticket and don't allow a
personal reason TO interfere to turn your
vote away from man on the ticket.
There is moral obligation that qualms
Of conscience will make you uncomfort-
able for violating.
