 GEORGE H. KELLEY will be, so 1t is rumored, a candidate for Sergeant-at- Arms of the legislative council, or some slch office. If this is the case his claims should be favorably considered. He worked hard for the success of his party and is deserving of recognition at its hands. Newspaper men as a rule, are miserably paid for the party work they de, which in fact is largely gratitiutious, so that when an opportunity is given the party to recompense it's workers at TO cost to itself, it should not be chary in well doing. Kelley is a good news paper man and he made a good fight. If the party leaders are wise the claims Of its newspaper men will not be lost Tn the shuttle and scramble for office.

auger of discord little deeper into the filing of the Democratic party. And again:
 ''The writer is in position to know that the editorials referred went into the CITIZEN at the request of Royal A. Johnson who Is one of the largest stock holders in the paper; but the public in general do not know this fact. That pesteTferous occupant of the Surveyor Generals inauguration through the pulp of his Democratic relative ought to be summarily bounced on the 4th of March next as B fitting rebuke for these underhgnd attempts to disrupt the Pima Democracy in order to advance the interests of the carpet-ba2 friend, who will, iI turn, furnish the necessary Democratic Territorial backing to en- able Royals Democratic relatives in New York to retain him in office"
 What an exalted position this Dem ocratic Home-ruler holds. No ordinary mortal would require more, and the coming partly occupant of the White House should not be bothered in providing "fat take" for 50 fortunate an individual.
 Royal 4. Johnson does hold a small interest in the CITIZEN and the writer holds the balance, if that is any satis- faction for the people to know; but Johnson did not write the obnoxious editorials for the CITIZEN. His time IS too much occupied in trying to collect a two years ice bill from the Demo- cratic home ruler to bother himself about the CITIZEN. The articles Of which the man ''in position" complains, were written by the editor of the CITI- ZEN, and the responsibility of their pub lication with all of their shortcomings alone. rests with him.
 Of Johnson's pull through his uncles, his cousins and hIs aunts, we know nothing; but we believe that we do know him we'll enough to say that when he quits office his suncessor will have to be bigger man in the upper story of his anatomy than Home Rule Dem ocrat." Saee?

Another Bad Man Gone Worse.

ST. PAUL, Minn., Nov. 17.-A special from Grand Forks, N. D., says that two weeks ago, N. l.. Corners who has been purchasing grain east of Grand Forks, and shipping it as a commissioner, dls- appeared suddenly forsaking his wife and children, and taking all the pro- ceeds of several thousand bushels of grain belonging to farmers. Yesterday young man giving the name of Charles Williams arrived with a letter from Corners to "a young girl who lived in the family of Corners as nurse girl. The missive urged her to come to him. The letter was dated San Bernsrdino, Cal. William brought with hin a re- turn ticket from that place. Comers's wife O6taIned possession of the letter and informep the officers who telegraph ed to San BerlrdiaO. Gal, to have Com CTS arrested. A telegram was received stating that he had been apprehended and the money he had taken had been rec ryered. Corners had been living in California under an assumed name. He IS highly connected here and occupied various positions of trust.

Two we'll known Democrats of this city outdid the Pythian record on the night of election. They rushed around and bugged each other at furious rate, shouted themselves hoarse and gleefully enquired if anything had been heard to drop. But now, alas, they twine their tendrils of affections around other plants and pass each other with the cold unfeelIng stare of the stranger. Both are candidates for the same office and both expect to use the same 'pull, !" and the iron of discord has entered their souls.

Elliott own property near the VekoI in which he has much faith as coming bonanza. To open up thls pro- perty he fortunately secured assistance in the east and will at once begin the work of development. The CITIZEN wishes him realization of his hopes. During his connection with this paper he labored faithfully for it's interests and won the good will and commenda- lions of the business men and citizens ot Tucson for his uniform courtesy to all. He is honest and capable and deserving of the success we wish hIm.

A Canal ReOpened.

Health is largely dependent upon a regular habit of body. The bowels act as an important canal for the carrying of waste matter of the system. They, together with the kidneys and pores, are outlets for debris whose pres enee is fatal to the body's well-belng. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is no vio- lent purgative, but a gentle laxative admirably adapted to the wants of the constipated. It never gripes and wrenches the intestines as all drastic cathartics do, but produces an action akin to that of an effort of nature. Billlousness, indigestion, with their ss- sociate manifestation, costiveness, are speedily and completely remedied by this fine corrective, which also cOnquers malaria, sick headache, kidney and rheumatic trouble, and checks pre- mature decay.

IN the circumcolution of reports it appears that Judge Barnes writes the "Harmony" editorials for the CITIZEN and General Johnson gets them ID the paper. The Judge is good Democrat, he never kicks over the traces, balks, bucks, gets mad or plays second fiddle. He writes the editorials himself and Johnson gets them in. Between the two the Democratic party will be kept in the line of the landslide and dosed with rheumatic syrnp through the col ums of the CITIZEN. But the day will be chilly and raw for the Judge if it transpires that the Democratic pantry can be reached only through a window in the St2r office,

THE Democratic office seekers are prating patriotism 10 the Republican office holders and urging them to re- sign on March 1. They will do no such thing. They are not built that way any more than the Democrats. The ex- perience of the people of Arizona with Democratic office holders has not been overly refreshing and they are not pin ing for relnfiction of the evil, After the fourth of March every office in the Territory will be at the disposal of Mir Cleveland and when he calls "time' there will be no whimpering of CIVIL service reform, as there was among the Democrats four years ago. Every office holder in the Territory received his ap- pointment from one of the very best of presidents. They have tried to per form their duty as was expected of them, and when they go out of office it will not be under the curses of an outraged people.

Peoples Party for Free Silver.

DEs MONIES, Ia., Nov. 16-General Weaver, candidate for President on the Peoples party ticket, today issued lengthy address to the voters of that party. He declares the Peoples party but little behind the Republican party In the number of states carried and that It will, doubtless, hold the balance of power in the United States. The new DemOcratic administration will ignore three great cOntentiOns of modern times relating to land, money and transporta- tion, and In fact the whole force of the new regime will be exercised to prevent, and the urgeUt demand for the free coinage of silver IS to be disdainfully ignored, and Tn contem pt of the doctrine of Andrew Jackson European aristo- crats are not to be permitted to dictate our financial policy. The uniform legal tender currency of government is to be sacrificed and severe attempts made to force the people to return to fraudu- lent system of state bank issues. In Gen. Weaver's opinion, the violent pol | itical storms of '88 and '92 are signifying the turbulent condition of the political atmosphere fOreshadowing approaching success. He urges the work of organ ization to be pushed with energy in all ! the states.

Fish for Chicago.

In answer to a request of President Davld s. Jordan of Stanford University, Postmaster Ewing has secured a fine sample of Colorado rlver Salmon for the fisheries exhibit at the Worlds Fair. The fish was caught last Saturday by some Indians. It proved to be the largest which has been taken from the river for several years. measuring four feet four inches in length anG weighing over 40 pounds. The fish was carefully packed in pounded ice and sawdust and shipped by express to s. F. Denton, Wellesly, Mass, who will make plaster cast of it. One hundred and fifty pounds of ice was used and the express charges was S25. Prof Jordon wishes to get humpback sucker, another Colorado river fish. for the same purpose as the salmen ie intended. The fisheries ex- h:b;t a5 Chicago will be one of the most interesting departments

MR. CLEVELAND having absolutely surrendered to Tammany Hall, in order to get the support of that corrupt or ganization. in New York City, it is pre- sumed that Tammany methods will be a striking feature of the next admins tratIon. No newspaper reader in this country needs to be told what Tammany methods are. They are everything that is vicious in politics; they have made the municipal government of New York City stench in the nostrils of honest men everywhere, and if they get foot hold in the National government the result will eventually be the same. It may or may not be true, but the Demo crats are already saying that the civil service law is to be dead letter under Cleveland. They say that Mir. Cleve- land attributed his defeat iu 1888 to his observance of that law, and that he proposes to lay the foundation for what he hopes will be long lease of power for the Democratic party by clearing the offices of Republicans and putting Democrats of the Tammany strlpe-men whose motto is that anything is justifi- = able to win-in their places. Under stand that this talk comes from Demo- crats, not Republicans. We hope he will do it.

THE President stands up as manfully amid the storm of defeat as be would have done had he been crowned with the laurel wreath Of victory, as he and every other Republican had so conf dently expected that he would be. It is the trials of adversity that brings out the best there is Tn every man, and after trials greater than which have seldom been placed upon any man Benjamin Harrison stands erect and calm, consci- ous of having given the American peO- pie an administration that will occupy place in the history of his country second to that of no man who has serv- ed tbe nation in times of peace. He has uttered no word of complaint, although he knows full we'll that the means by which his defeat was accomplished were such as to constitute a real nanace to the Republic which he loves so well; he has not criticised the men who managed his campaign, for he firmly believes that 
 the party. Mistakes were made, and he knows it, but. he also knows that it would do no good to point them out at this time In short, he has done what it behooves every patriotic citizen to do accepted the verdict of the majority. It would be nonsense to say that he is not disappointed at the result. He is disappointed and most deeply, but he is too great man to voice the disappoint. ment. No Republican can make mis- take who follows the example of the President in philosophically accepting the result of the election. "Let us not please our opponents by abusing mem bers of our own party for what was done or left undone." are the words of prom inent Republican, near to the President; and they are worthy of being remember ed and lived up to by every Republican,

A Broken Reed Indeed,

This, and no mistake, is the Individu- al whose stamina has waned to such a low ebb, for want of sufficient tonic, that he would certainly topple over and fracture something if bulky subject such as a fat wife, for instance, were to lean upon him. Build up, ye lean, pith- less and streDgthless with HosteJter's Stomach Bitters, which will enable you to eat and digest heartily, and thus sc- qUire flesh and vIgor. The fortress of life will speedily capitulate to the grim scythe-wielder, death, if you don't. Nervousness, sleeplsssness, Diliousnessi constipation, malarIa, rheumatic and kidney trouble are all concura5le by this restorative of health and vigor. In connection with the use of the Bitters, it would be we'll for the debiliated to study the wants of hls enfeebled stomach with view to the selection of tEe most dIgestible articles of diet.

There was not hitch yesterday in the election. One citizen went to the booth and after scrutinizing his ticket said that the man he wanted to vote for was on the ticket The ballot clerk asked hum who it vas and he replied "Hugh Pugh." He was informed that he would have to go across the street to vote for Pugh, and he went, after first casting. @ ballot for county officers.
 There were a larger number of straight tickets than anyone imagined there would be. Twelve ballots were tkrown out on account of defects in marking. Some had the marks on the wrong side and some were marked with one cross only on the entire ticket.- Prospector.
