IN this issue we publish according to our promise of yesterday, the speech of Judge William H. Barnes at Flagstaff on the 2Ist instant. This speech was made when the learned Judge placed the Hon. B. c. Parker of Tucson, ia nomination for chairman of the Dem ocratic Territorial Central Committee. The eloquence of the Judge prevailed and notwithstanding the determined op- position of the friends of pr. Brannen Mr. Parker was elected by decided majority. By this selection of its chief the Democracy of Arizona places its seal of approval upon the gambling pro- fession of which MT. Parker is the &C., knowledged head. In making this an
 nouncement We state nothing new for Mir. Parker is an old resident of the county. He has been life long Demo crat and undoubtedly deserves well of his party and the honor thus bestowed upon him will be wcrthIly worn. But LII dl ls utllltI hcAO bNl NsADAC SO AhA AAS the Republicans are concerned. If If they never had an operIng day ih politics they have one now and should make the most of it. Gambling" as the Star, the organ of the Democracy. in Pima county, says in justification of the party endorsement, ''is licensed industry in Arizona and any citizen has as much legal right to engage in it, as has any citizen to engage in the mer- cantile business" All of this may be true, but the custom would be "more honored in the breech than in the ob servance," and we think that all good citizens, regardless of political faith and party affiliations, will so regard 1t and swing into line with the Republican party, the party of law, order and good morals.

LET US BE ON GUARD.

Anent this cholera matter, let not the people of New Mexico rest in fancied security. The pure air and abundant sunshine and the rarified air with which New Mexico is blessed, will, of course do much to prevent such con- tagion from doing very great damage here if the simple, ordinary precautions which good sanitation requires are talk en, but it will not do to rely wholly on these blessed qualities with which na- ture here abounds. Man must do something toward keeping up natures true tone in this respect.
 For the present the Atlantic sea board appears to feel that the cholera scare is oseE, that is, the health officers do, and the business world does, but at the game time there are great many well informed people who look forward to the coming of next summers warm weather with anything but hopeful view. Experience teaches that it re- quires about three years for 3 cheiera epidemic to run it's course. It is we'll nigh certain that. should it be stamped

MICKEY STEWART had a rousing re- caption in Phoenix on Monday evening last. There were bonfires, sky rockets, transp2rences, and better yet, fully four thousand men in lne. The parade was by far the largest ever seen in Phoenix, and the enthusiasm of the multitude knew no bounds. After the parade a call for the next congressman was made and as Stewart stepped to the front a mighty cheer went up, such as Phoenix had never before beard at political gathering. and when quiet was restored Stewart spoke on the issues of the day and was applauded to the echo. In the opinion of com petent judges the Demo- cratic party in Maricopa county will be for sale cheap on thu Sth of November next

Way in the back ground, back of the tier of the elect and near the door of the opera houses front entrance was arranged numerous chairs of the Mobocracy or MObocrats who are not supposed to mix with orators and comingle with the elect, but must do the bidding and vote lamb-like at the polls on election day.

The Democrats Meet.

At Reid's opera house this forenoon the Democrats of Pima county held their primary meetings. The opera house was decorated with streamers and various emblems. On the drop curtain vas Haunted tbe banner, Free and unlimited coinage of silver" This itself was sufficient to give the national head of the Democratic ticket a sugges- tive shake of the chills as it is so we'll known the fat man who roosts at Bug cards Bay is diametrically opposed to the free and unlimited coinage of silver. Upon the left of the hall was a banner "Arizoha for statehood" Flags and banners radiated from the center of the ceiling and made an objective point to the four corners of the building or the four gas chandeliers. To the right was a banner with the platitude oft depicted in behalf of Tariff Reform" something that does not interest Arizona one nickel. In front of the platform was arranged series of rows of chairs for the second edition of the elect whilst on the stage was arranged some exceeding ly comfortable nh:e.;irs of the choicest and electest sort reserved especially fer the choice advocates of him who pro- claimed against silver and who all sum- mer has roasted In a paroxysm of let> ter writing under the shadows of the buZzardines of Buzzards Bay.

COLrNrRrS AT COrRT-

of Jackson park. This will be repeated every night and the illuminations will be magnificent. Important events in the life of Columbus and in the history of America will be represented. Many symbolical floats will also be introduced. Designs for four of these floats are par ticularly worthy of notice. They will cost thousands of dollars, and are calcu- lated to eclipse anything heretofore seen in this sort of pageantry.
 The first is tableau of Columbus be- fore the court of Ferdinand and Isabella. The mOnarchs sit on their gilded throne under the rich canopy, both attired as becomes the rulers of Leon and Castle. Before them stands Columbus eagerly and earnestly trying to convince them of the truth of his theories. His charts are spread before him on table. The explorer is dressed in black velvet, with a long gown, which he throws aside in his eagerness. The queen listens intent ly, the conviction of his truth growing upon her. The king. however, is almost indifferent
 Their Catholic zeal and faith is shown by a large cross behind them. Near Columbus stand several courtiers and some of the wise men. The latter have their own maps with them and cannot suppress a scornful sheer at the pre- sumptuOus adventurer, whose mind they suggest is disordered.
 The next float Is more typically Amer ican. Westward the course of empire takes its way" is the subject. The prominent feature is the prairie schoon- CT drawn 5y oxen, which is just emerg ing from cleft in the rocks. A scout on horseback leads the way, and ahead of him Indians are skulking off behind the rocks and trees. Another Indian peers over a ridge of rock at the advance of civilization.
 In the foreground surveyors are work ing on line = railway. A little shanty under the cliff is their camp.

The two floats ''War" and Peace" will probably be the only suggestion of the civil conflict. The first float will be a dismantled ship, with masts and spars shattered and sails torn in shreds. On the battlefield are cannon, few dead soldiers and dead horse. Over it hang the demons of war. The coloring of this float will all be somber. Black will predOminate. Lurid red light will be thrown on the war demons lowering over the battlefield.
 Peace" will be in strong contrast to the last one. Every color will be bright. The horn of plenty will be prominent. pouring forth treasures, and angels of peace will hover over the land. The dismounted cannon will be wreathed with flowers, its muzzle filled with roses, children will play over it. and one darling little one will sit astride the breech, spilhing it forever. Herewith are given illustrations showing the gen eral scope of two of these interesting designs.

IN our remarks yesterday on the sub ject of city garbage, We had no inten- tion of wronging the contractor. who is said to be following out the lines of his agreement with the city, and Is doing all that his contract requires Of him.
 But this is not enough and the city ehould increase its compensation and make it commensurate with the task of freeing the city from refuse and garb- age, or better yet, the city should en- ploy its own scavengers and the refuse would then be cared away no matter where found. This cannot be done un- der close skinned contract, or in fact under almost any contract that the city would feel authorized to make. This brings us again to the declaration that the city should employ its own scaven- gers. If this is done, and 1t should be done, garbage will not be allowed to &C., cumulate on the street under the plea that it is net within the lines of poor ly paid contract. The council undoubt- edly did what they considered for the best interests of the city. but when 1t is shown that an error has been made they should not be slow in rec:ifying ir. St the last meeting of the council MT. Schumacher made report by which he showed that a great saving could be made and recommended that the city own its own carts and employ its own men, but for some reason it was pigeon hOled without action.
 If on the whole his proposition is not let another be evoked by which the city can be freed from all surface garbage

The School Review.

One of the most striking suggestions for the local Observances of Columbus Day is that in every town and city in the land the schools parade after the morning exercises of the celebration. While this is not specifically included in the official programme prepared for the day, it is strongly urged by the com mittee of educators who have had the uniform celebration in charge.
 If there is a general parade of the civic and military organizations a public school review" should be its most honored feature. If. there is no general procession the schools alone might be reviewed. Let the pupils meet at their school houses at a desig- mated hour and be conducted by eff cient marshais, without delays and in perfect order, to their places in the line The army veterans north and south, the blue and the gray alike, are proper ly to march with the schools as special guards of honor. As the reviewing stand is reached each part of the column can salute the flag with cheers and waving of handkerchiefs and caps.
 The various patriotic organizations might fittingly be invited both to the morning exercises and to serve, in addi- ton to the veterans, as escorts in the re- view. The beauty of the review would be heightened if each school carried both the national flag and distinctive banner of its own. The review also might be made impressive by symbolic floats; models of the Gold red school house" and of the ship of Columbus are among the appropriate subjects. This feature, however, should not be at tempted unless it can be effectively done. In all cases, let it be said. the fantastic should be vigorously barred from the procession.

THE ramifcation of the Pima Democ- racy in Graham is liable to break the bank and the slate gees with it, and the Republicans are liable to carry that Bourbon stronghold with a rush. There are few men among the Democratic nominees of that county that probably carry with them the respect of the party, but as a whole, the ticket stacks up mighty poorly and the majority will be used by the Republicans to copper Democratic success.

The Democratic papers are much con-
 cerAed over the nomination of Mir. Geo.
 Cuff, of Graham county, by the Repub- licans for councilman at large. Mir. Cuff is a resident of Graham county, a teacher by profession and true blue Republican in politics. He is a bright and active worker and will carry Gra- ham county by at least 300 majority. His nomination IS one Gf the strongest that could have been made and marks the dawn of new era in the politics of the Republican party in Arizona. IL is charged by the Democracy that Mir. Cuff is @ Mormon and that the nOmIna- ton was made for the purpose of catch ing the Mormon vote, but It was not 2s a Mormon or churchman of any de- nomination that Mir. Cuff appeared be- fore the convention, but as an Ameri- can citizen and a member of the great est political party on earth. He repre- sents in politics the progressive element that is embodied in the breast Of young men of both political parties. We rise to remark right here that George Cuff will be elected

THE city this fall, will be called upon to elect a new mayor. The office is an important one and should be filled by one of our best citizens. It is exceed ingIy important that the citizens of the town take an interest in the matter and work to the end that good man be elected. MT Wm. Schomacher would, we believe, make a most excellent may or. He is q good citizen and a heavy tax payer and is thoroughly alive to the requirements of the office. As chair man of the street committee, he has done much to place the city on a sani- tary footing, and if elected mayor would be in a position to carry on the good work to perfection. We do not know that be would accept the nomination if offered him, but we do know that the office could not be rendered to more worthy or energetic and progressive citizen.
