We have learned ON indisputable
authority that the democrats are max
ing still aunt in this state and unless
all signs fail will bring out their vote
TO the last man. They have made a
careful canvass of the state and know
just how many votes they have got in
each town. just how many are doubt
ful and just what strength the Prohibi-
tionists and Peoples Party viii show.
The republicans must see TO it that
they get out every voter. We have
no fear of the result on a full vote.
Now is the time to work every day till
the polls close on the 9th Of Sept.
THE HERALD is proud of the high
character of the representatives from
the various towns in its territory and
the good, effective work they did in the
last legislature. Had the rest of tie
state been as fortunate in its represent
atives much of the unsatisfactory leg
islation of the last body would have
been avoided. Now let the voters of
every town make special effort and
see that even better men are placed in
nomination this year. The general
drift of opinion in this town is towards
exceptionally popular and well qualified
men. 1t only remains for the voters
to attend The caucus and see that their
wishes are carried out and the best
man nominated.

Mexican Silver.

The fear is often expressed that in the event of free coinage of sil- yer, Mexico will flood our country with her silver, such fear is not we'll founded, The price of Mexi- can silver is made by the price of American silver. Mexican dollars are now worth 70 cents. When sil- yer is worth $1 .20per ounce, a Mex ican dollar will be worth a trihe more in Mexico than is the Ameri- can dollar. It is plain then that a producer of silver in Mexico would not bring his bullion here to be coined into silver dollars when the hints of Mexico are open to coin age of silver at greater profit to the producer than in this country. But the question may be asked, would it not pay the Mexican pro- ducer to ship his bullion here, get it coined into silver dollars and purchase American goods? Why of course it would, and that is just what We want. It is the present state of silveri in this country which drives the trade of our sister repub- lie almost entirely to France and Germany. Under free coinage we will capture the trade of the en- tire country to the Isthmus of Pan ama.-Prospector.

Phenix, Ariz., March 5.-The ex- cItement over the discovery of the burned remains and those of a horse in the Soul country, has disclosed a murder. The crime is laid at the door of Senor Papagos. Recently noted smuggler. Figuara, came to Tucson to buy supplies, he left for home and was never heard of at- forwards, Papagos was known to have been on his track, and the dis covery of the remains has led to the belief, owing to surrounding circumstances, that Papagos killed and robbed Figuara and then built a huge bonfire over his remains and those of his horse.

Interesting Arizona Ruins.

The PheniX, Arizona, antiquaries
 are much interested in the discov- cry of an aboriginal fort in the val ley of the Gila, about 90 miles be- low Prescott. The discovery was made by some miners who became lost in the desert and wandered by it. It is the largest and most pecu- liar structure found in the valley up to date, and 1t is expected that 1t will furnish some clue to the his tory and identity of the original.in habitants. They lay about four miles and a half back from the Gila river, and cover about mile square. In the center is the fort, still in remarkable state of preserva- ton, and it would to-day be i'm
 pregnable without cannon. It cov- CTS an area of about six acres, and and is built in a peculiar way. The first table is about 20 feet in height, and is made of dirt, with wall of boulders laid in cement around the outside. On top of this, and of the same hieght, though only half the size otherwise, is the second table, walled up as the first, On thls is a smaller one of the same height, and on this is the fort proper, con structed of stone and durable. The edges of the lower table were used as gardens, and around the walls are hundreds of boulders brought from the river, doubtless for the purpose of casting down on the heads of a foe. In the top fort are many skeletons and human bones, and in all probability the place was beseiged and the people died of starvation. A ditch four miles and halfin length runs by the base of this structure, and brought water from the Gila. It is we'll defined and about thirty feet in width, though it is stopped up and no wa ter runs through it. It is one of the most desert parts of the territory, and no one has ever found it before. A party is being organized and will investigate it,-El Paso Bullion.

Down in Tennessee a Methodist preacher tells a story on himself which we commend to the attention of Elder Harrison, and incidentally it might be of some use to Mir. Blaine. It was at a camp meeting, and one of the brethren told him he had confidential communica- ton to make. eve went, said the storY-teller, "about half mile in to the depths of the forest. The old brother stopped and looked all round to make sure that nobody was in earshot. Then he said, with great earnestness and solemnity :: "Bro.-, you have more kinds of sense than most any preacher l ever saw. You have business sense and preaching sense and exhorting sense. But there is one kind of sense you haven't got-quitting sense ?" And this is the kind of sense Bro. Harrison needed with his Force bill, his Subsidy schemes, his Prohibitive tariff and his Radi- calism generally. It is the kind he needs now when he is using his Federal machine to force his own renominatlon. He has none of it yet, but he will have enough to serve the purpose on March f next.-Re- public,

Eastern philanth, opists canno

Eastern philanth. opists cannot seem to get it into their heads that these Indians are savages. They act as though they thought they were little innocent, bright-eyed, clean-faced Sunday school children, with angel wing sprouting out all over their shoulders and back, sim ply second editions of sinless Adams and Eyes in paradise, sitting under the cooling shadow of the tree of life, basking in sunshine, perfect paragons of helpless inno- cence. Nothing is farther from the truth.-Huachuca Sentinel.

Principal Ware, of Hawkinsville says the Savannah, Ga., News, has what appears to be quite novel way of managing refractory boys at the graded school, When one gets too previous he IS walloped. Then he has to give a bond for his future good behavior. He has to have one, two or three boys on his bond who guarantee that there will be no fault to find with him by reason of misconduct. If the principal mis- behaves the bondsmen catch it. Knowing this, the bondsmen keep the principal out of mischief. They say it works beautifully.

If the Republican senators op- pose the admission of New Mexico and Arizopa, it will be charged that they do so on partisan grounds, This charge might not be true and yet it would be an unpleasant one.
 No question of party politics ought to stand in the way of the admis- of New Mexico and Arizona, their admission to date from the first of next January.-Denver Republican.

NUMBER 23

Editor Patton of the Banning Herald, says that the Colorado river has risen five feet. G. w. Durbrow ot Salton, says that it has risen seven feet. The facts are these :: The lowest the river has been this season was 16 feet 4 inches; the highest on the present rise was 19 feet, rise of only ? feet s inches. A rise of seven feet will put more water into the Salton Basin than it ever had since white men knew of the great sink.-Sentinel.

Sheep in Salt River Valley.

The sheep men who have their focks along the Arizona canal from Flagstaff are we'll into the lambing season and say they will save over eighty per cent of their lambs.
 One ot the sheep owners in con- versation yesterday with Gazette man, said that the early lambs looked like half-grown sheep, they have grown so rapidly these warm days. The season will close the last of this month, when shearing will begin. As soon as the shearing season closes, the focks will start north to their summer ranges in the Mogollon mountains.
 Not only do the sheep men save a larger per centage of their lambs by coming down here with them, but they get the advantage of three months growth of their lambs, as on their home ranges they do not begin lambing until the first of June.
 This gives the men who bring their focks south chance to mar ket young wethers in Flagstaff be- fore the season begins there. Then, too, the wool clip is much heavier and better.-Phenix Gazette.

their gripping and violence.
But they're better in every way.
In size, for instance, and dose.
They're the smallest and the cas-
les, to take; only one little Pellet

Sick Headache, Bilious Headache,
Constipation, Indigestion, Bilious

They're the cheapest pill you can
