for Senator in spicy speech. Repre-
sentative Dicks of Hamilton nominated
Secretary of the Treasury Charles Fos-
ter, but there was slight disposition to
jeer the gentleman and he was brief in
his speech. The nominations of Sher-
man and Foraker were seconded by sew
eral gentlemen upon each side
1t was 10 o'clock before ballot was
reached. Just before the ballot, tele-
gram from Governor-elect Mckinley was
received saying: II have been advised
that my name may be presented.
Promptly withdraw it." Upon this au-
thority, the chairman withdrew Mr.. Nc
Kinley's name, but this did not prevent
Mr.. Welch from voting for his candidate.
Intense excitement prevailed during the
roll call. As the doubtful men recorded
themselves they were warmly applauded
by the faction with which they voted.

WASHINGTON, January Mr.. Blaine
was taken suddenly i'll at his office in the
State Department today. His illness,
which caused considerable excitement in
this city this afternoon fora time, until
the facts were known, is nothing more
than an attack of Indigestion not unusu-
ally severe. The alarming reports which
were in circulation were due to the fact
that when the Secretary felt the nausea
coming ON and felt his head swimming,
he rang for his messenger and the mes
senger on his arrival found the Secretary
vomiting freely. This alarmed the man
and he rushed out with the startling in
formation that Mr.. Blaine was dying. 1t
was this exaggerated report which quick
ly spread all over town and gave rise to
the sensational stories concerning his
condition. Surgeon General Brown of
the navy, who was Immediately called
in, and DR.. Frank Hyatt, one of Wash
ington's leading doctors, agreed in say
ing that the Secretary was suffering from
disordered stomach, the result of care
lessness in diet and that no alarm need
be felt. The fact that the Secretary was
able to sign his official mail this after
noon at his house, showed that his at
tack was not at all serious.
AT the House this evening, it was said
Mr.. Blaine was feeling perfectly well and
had fully recovered from his temporary
indisposition.

and amid tremendous applause Mr. Sher
man was declared nominated.
Senator Sherman's nomination was
made unanimous. Later he and Mr..
Foraker appeared before the caucus and
were greeted with cheers. Mr.. Sherman
returned thanks for the honor conferred
on him andspoke in complimentary terms
of Mr.. Foraker. The latter made brief
address full of good feeling and the eau

sergeant-at-arms performed his task.
The first division took place on reso-
luton of the Foraker men for a secret
ballot. The Sherman forces moved a
substitute providing for an open ballot
by roll-call. A lively debate followed
Representative Griffin, of the Foraker
forces, insisted that secret ballot was
necessary to protect men from intimida-
ton and coercion. "The only argument
against a secret ballot" said he, lis the
desire that he who dares to vote as his
conscience and his convictions dictate
may be exposed to the bulldozer. Ap-

A SPECIAL EDITION.

In order to properly advertise the
wonderful resources OF the wonderful
Salt River valley, TIE REPUBLICAN has
undertaken to publish special edition,
filled with illustrations and wrte-ups OF
the country.
No expense or pains will be spared in
our efforts to fully cover the various
enterprises and resources which are
likely to interest people who are think
ing OF coming to Arizona, and in order
that the same may be given full justice
THE RErUBuCAN has employed Messrs.
w. +. and J. Z. King, who will devote
their time exclusively to preparing
mater for TnE REPUBLICANS boom
edition. The Messrs. King are ex-
perienced newspaper men and descrip-
tive writers, who have been promi-
nently connected with several large
eastern dailies, and we can as
sure the people that THE Re-
PUBLIcAN's special edition will be a cred
liable Undertaking. The illustrations
used in the paper will be of fine and
expensive character, but we are deter
mined that the paper shall be handsome
as we'll as reliable. In addition to the
work. OF the King brothers, exhaustive
articles will be contributed to the paper
by recognized authorities on the min
ing, fruit, irrigation and live stock liz
terests OF the territory.
An edition OF $1,000 copies will be
printed for distribution in the east, and
TIE REPUBLICAN hopes that it may be
the means Of bringing many people
here.
1t is not money making enterprise
for TIE REPUBLICAN,, but simply labor
oi love in which we ask the people who
are interested in the development Of this
country TO cooperate.
On the first OF the year, our contem-
poraries, The Gazette and The Herald,
issued handsome New Year editions
which were creditable to the publishers
and accomplished much good in adver-
tising the valley. The REPUBmcAN was
not then prepared to handle the large
amount of extra work involved in boom
edition, and consequently did not at
tempt it at that time. But it has now
determined to put its shoulder to the
wheel, and hopes that when the King
Brothers call upon the people for the
necessary data and facts every en-
couragement and information possible
will be given them. They are
thorough newspaper men as well as gen
tlemen, and THE REPUBLICAN is response
BILE for the faithful performance OF all
promises that they may make.

MHY rnE niNNsR WAS LArE.

An Exhaustive Search Was Necessary to
Discover Important Utensils.
An incident which occurred two or
thrco years ago, on the occasion of the
young German emperor's visit TO Greece,
illustrates anew the fact. which no one
ever doubted, that the etiquette of
court may bring us much discomfort to
the king as to the people who surround
him.
The kaiser holds the honorary rank of
admiral in the British navy, The COM
mander of the British squadron in Greek
waters rendered his majesty dinner on
board his ship. OF course the banquet
was to be n most elaborate and magnif-
cent affair
The hour arrived, and the royal guest
and his suite and officers, all in brilliant
uniform, were assembled. Then it was
discovered that an important implement
was missing. Where was the emperors
knife and fork?
For the kaiser, having but one arm
that he can use--his left arm is with
ered-can WELD the scepter, the sword or
tho men. but cannot use knife and fork
as other people use them. In their place
he employs an ingenious contrivance
which combines in one implement both
knife and fork, and does very well with it.
just at that moment it was discovered
that the imperial knife and fork had not
been placed by the imperial plate. 1t
was sought for, but it could not be
found. The emperor's attendants were
inquired of no one knew where it was.
Then the knife and fork might have
been left ashore, perhaps. a picked
crew were put into one Of the ships
boats, and brawny backs bent over the
oars, for the errand was one that called
for dispatch, The omperor's quarters in
the city Were searched, but no knife and
fork could be found.
All this time the dinner was spelling.
The search had been made with all pos
sible energy, but it was now two hours
since the table bad lacked only the
kaiser's knife and fork. But the dinner
could not be eaten until the kaiser was
ready to eat, and his eating implements
must be found.
Perhaps before this time the happy
thought had occurred to more than one
person, THE emperor may know where
it is" But up to this time no one had
ventured to ask him Would he, under
the melancholy circumstances, take it.
amiss if he were questioned? Hunger
rendered the host bold: with decorus
delicacy the emperor was approached,
and the moinentous question was put.
Could he tell where his knife and fork
might be found?
"Why, yes, here it is" replied William
IL; and reaching inside his uniform he
produced the much sought implement
from an inner pocket.
The host forthwith led the way to the
table, not only greatly relieved in mind,
but deeply impressed with the fact that
the affairs of Germany were in safe
hands.-Youth's Companion.

HILL AT nom u.

Hill cut his own throat, even with
his own party, except such as belong
to his ring, when he secured the calling
OF the New York convention in this
month. The Democrats can see no ex-
cuse for the hurry and it seems that
they object very much to being rushed
into anything. Hill wanted to strike
while the iron was hot, and while he
was positive OF the support OF Tammany.
He remembered the fate OF other STRAIT
egists who lost their chances by waiting
a day, so he did not propose to sleep on
his bors. Heknows the power of Doodle
in the famous old Tammany hall and he
did not propose to let some other aspir-
ing Democrat get in with full wallet.
His haste though has been his ruin tor
the nomination, and even were he nom-
mated he would fall the easiest prey of
the Republicans, for the simple reason
that his own party will not support him,
and the people OF New York have man
iiested desire to be rid of the death
dealing influence OF the ring. In few
words, Hill is not in it.

4 Duel In Inc Dark.

Cornelius ODowd, in one Of his inim-
table essays, tells us that once upon a
time in the County of Clare quarrel
occurred in the hunting field between
two gentlemen whom we will call Cap
tain Robbins and w. Jones, Esq. Very
hot words passed between them. Let
us settle the business mt once" cried the
captain; II have pistols in the house. "
Nothing better" said the squire; I'm
your man" Il was ut length decided
that they should fight in the stable yard,
at fifteen PAGES. each man to hold a
lantern as a mark for his opponent.
Where are you, yon scoundrelY' cried
the captain, when they came out into
the yard. I'm here, you shoeblack, "
replied the squire. Stand ont bold"
said the captain. Its what I'm doing"
said the other. Give the word and no
more talking" Get behind the pump,
yer honor. get behind the pump before
you fire" whispered the groom, pulling
the captain by the coat He did so, and
when they blazed it was the squire who
got it, and it was more than three months
before he could get out again. Leeds

NOTICE TO TIE PUBLIC. -

From and after this date no "dead head
advertising will be carried in the columns OF
THE REPUBLICAN. II costs money 10 set type,
and we cannot afford TO pay printers for
labor on this class of advertising. THE ARR
IONA REPUBLICAN company is willing to donate
in cash, to all meritorious public, religious
and charitable enterprises, to the extent Of
its means, but ID has established u rule TO give
away no more advertising. Church and
charitable notices will be printed at half of the
usual rates for the same class of advertising,
but all other advertising will be charged for
at regular rates.
THE REPUBLICAN will in the future, as in the
past, devote its best energies TO the up building
and development of Phoenix and OF Arizona,
because that is its mission, but advertising
ordered at the counting room by individuals
must be paid for.

THE PHOENIX Herald truthfully re-
marks: "Perhaps in course OF time the
public OF Phoenix and the valley will
learn that their home papers, that have
their money and interests all here, will
be able to do them as honest and etii-
cient work as can be done in the way OF
advertising the country, and that they
are able to earn the support that is due
them for the unpaid labor they are all
the time performing for the commu-
nity."
