A Thief Captured.

Julien Moreno, a Mexican by name and instinct was arraigned before Justice Johnston to>day on a charge of burglary. He was bound over to appear before the next grand jury. Moreno entered the house of Thomas Walsh four miles this side of Tur- quois and turned everything topsy turvey, taking a rife with him when he left. The boys came home from work. and after discovering their loss started after the thief in company with Deputy Bryant. They found the fellow and after quite chase he was overtaken and the weapon recovered. When his pursuers were after him he turned on them and levelled the rife at them but they kept on his trail till he camped when he gave up without resistance. He says he was drunk when he broke into the house, but Justice being good templar did not sympathize with him, and sent him to jail.

IF the territorial democratic con.

IF the territorial democratic con- vention is true to the time honored principles it will not hide its light behind a bushel. If the platform is to be simply . bid for patronage in case the nominee of the Chicago con- ventiJn is elected, it will not repre- sent the wishes of the democratic voters. There is one man before the people who has been indorsed by the empire state of the union, who has time and again proved his friendly interest for the great west and its in dustries. He has recorded himself on the side of silver and against the money power of his own state. If the Democracy of Arizona are in earnest in their advocacy of the remonetiza- ton of silver, let them endorse the candidacy ei David B. Hill. and rebuke the action of tie late Republican convention which endorsed the sd- minissration of President Harrison.

COPPER WORKS CLOSING DOWN.

BUTTE, Mont The Copper Works comprising about half the capacity of the Anaconds Smelling Go, have closed indefinitely. Different reasons are given for this move, one being it is done for the purpose of decreas- ing the production, thereby strength ening the copper market. Another cry is that it is done as the inaugur- ation of a movement to reduce the wages of the miners and laborers. Five hundred men are thrown out of work at the Anaconda, and about the same number of men laid of here.
