WHAT CONSTITUTES A PARTY
 LEADER.

A political party is born, not made. A political party, like the great Republi- can party, springs from a condition, and it exists for purpose. He there fore, is the best leader, who most nearly represents these conditions. His leader ship is the creation of necessity not of assertion. That establishes itself, and IS unconsciously reorganized, and re- quires no person to maintain it. The more it is disputed the stronger it be- comes; for controversy in the long run tends to develop truth and truth lies at the bottom of all things that last. He alone truly leads who truly reflects. But no man can be leader, small or great. who is not within himself an en- bodiment of the feelings and objects of those who compose the rank and file, the mass and body of the forces to be led. AS leader and public man, MT. Harrison is far stronger with the people than he was when he was elected He impresses the heart of the country as an honest, wIde-awake, capable leader of the Republican party. He has made distinguished reputation among those who are the ablest and worthiest of the party. He has all the evidences of po- pular approval. He has risen in the es- teem and confidence and favor of the the people, and all efforts to to bslittle his public servlces meet with popular disapproval. His character as a man is in perfect consonance with his accom- plishments as an statesman. The object we aim at, is good government, built upon the principle of the greatest good to the greatest number. These can be best attained ID support of the man now at the head of affairs.

A GOOD SANITARY CONDITION

As we come to the outer-r:m of the real hot weather, every man ought to feel obligated to help clean up and put the city in as good sanitary conditions as possible. Any parent subiecting his child to seen danger would be strongly condemned by all, but an unseen foe may steal away the fairest flower of the family circle without a sign of remou- strance, All people, and more espec- tally young and delIcate children need good air ana pure water, and we are shining against all the laws of God and sanitary science, when we allow heaps of filth and garbage to accumulate in our back yards and alley-ways. In and about our houses in vacant lots, may be found these beds of slime, the seeds of death and the hot beds of infectious disease. Clean up and make your neighbor see the danger.

WITH the usual pertinacity and in- sincerity the Democratic leaders con- tinue to pound away at the question of Civll Service Reform. Every body knows to dot, that these Democratic manag- CTS are relying mainly on pecuniary aid and political activity of expectants of of flee in the event of the election of their candidate. Four out of every five dol lars io their party Treasury are specu- lative investments. risked in confidence of large returns in federal patronage, if the party is successful. Four out of every five of their campaign stumpers, discourse under the impulse of kindred motives. The staple of their speeches is a demand fora change of office hold CTS. There is no common agreement among them in demands for charge of policy. The spectacle their imagina- tion pictures is a pyramid of about one hundred thousand heads of postmasters, and a few hundred thousand other of ticial, to be shorn away by a Democratic President. Something like the pile of the same number Of Moslem skulls which Tamerlane lef in Bagdad after his capture of that city.

A POLITICAL INSPIRATION.

MIR. HENRY WATERsoN, is the political nut-shell-er of his party. He says:
 If the issue were Cleveland, honest politics and defeat, or Hill, the machine and defeat for. reduced to the basis stated by the Sentinel there could be none other-I should unhesitatingly take the Cleveland horn of r. dilemma, and go tog glory with Grover shouting. But 1 do not think the Democratic party is limited to any such option. There are half dozen, half hundred, Democrats whom we could elect; Carlisle, BOies, Villas, Palmer, Campbell. German, Pat tison, Russell. SlOcum, Whitney, Flower, anybody who is not identified with this faction fight between two selfish leaders, one of whom is strong in New York, but nowhere else, and the other of whom is strong everywhere but except in New York Is it possible that an intelligent Democrat can think it lack of courage and conscience in me to urge consider ations like these upon the party, and to protest against the surrender of noble cause and the throwing away of great opportunity to mere hero-worship and clamor!
 There is such thing as Democratic wisdom and the above is a gilt-edged specimen. It's better than that-its ins- piration.

As some of the Democratic speakers at the Opera House the other evening, implied, this is not political campaign. 1t IS a campaign ID which the country is to decide whether it likes the plans and methods of business, inaugurated and carried forward so successfully, so far, by the Republican party. They are satisfactory. It is campaign which re- lates to homes and hearts and to the pockets; and every man, is interested. The campaign is to debate the quastlon of dollars and cents.

ONE of the perplexing things is the un, candor of so large a proportion of our voters, the democratic party. So many of them are first-class business men; they can see clear beyond their pre- judices, and into the political millstone as far any other citizen; they know be, yond even the peradventure of doubt that magnificent hard cash benefcent results come to them and to the country every day from the application of the Mckinley bill; yet in. the face Of all this the democrats refuse to acknowledge it in candid, manly way. Bill Mckinley was the target of the Democratic picket firing last night. It was a good deal Iik trying to batter down the court house with banana.

THAT BURIED GOLD.
It is Found on c. A. Stevens
 Dairy Ranch.
It Turns Gut to be a Box of
 Dynamite.

All "Old Timers" remember the incl dent when William Brazelton, the stage ' rObber, was killed near this city,.on the property now occupied by Mir. c. 4 . Stevens, the milk-man. Somehow the story got out that Brazelton was, at the time of his death, in possession of a'large amount of gold and that he had it buried somewhere about these premises. This story had reached the ears of Mir. Stew ems and many were the sleepless nights he spent in thinking whether or not he would be the fortunate man to find the hidden treasure. And many, indeed, have been the tons and cubit yards of dirt that he has shovelled away in the vain endeavor to find the long hidden ducats which were sepuI- tured somewhere about in his COW yard. There was solitary mesquite, the largest of the scattered group in that cow-yard, the roots of which he had not prospect ed-he kept that to tether the unruly brutes of his herd. The other day he had an occasion to restrain the liberty of one of them a male individual-who raised the deuce generally, and paved the ground in his wrath until he had gone down two feet from the surface. MT. Stevens watched him intently with the hope that the maddened bovine might unearth the treasury He did so; it was towards evening. A wooden box came to sight, and Mir. Stevens soon relieved the box from its hardened confines and taking it up tenderly in his arms went to the house realizing that the battle against poverty had ceased and that from that day on, he would live in af- huence and the "wolf would vanish from his door," He'd be durned if he'd milk another coww He placed the "treas- ury" box carefully upon the center table; his good wife was away at the time, and so were bis children. He thought he would wait until their return before he would open the treasury box. He sat down on his easy chair and vent into reverie. Huge schemes crowded his bralns-a S100,000 botel--water storage "a raIlroad-all at once. He became master of the situation, and as the thought entered his mind that he would put line of steamers on the Santa Cruz between this city and Nogales, Mrs. Stevens and children entered the door. "I have itr' he cred 'What?" asked his wife. The fortune I've been looking for; see there,". pointing to the box, and hIs wife looked with astonisn- ment He procured hammer and proceed ed to open the box, expecting at every stroke of the tool to see the glittering gold. At last it came-it was-it was a lot of old dynaniGe-blasting powder that had been stolen and buried there, 1t is supposed. by William Brazelton hImself And there was woe, and tSere was laughter. and there was disappoiut ment all intermlngied together. But Mir. Stevens in bis good s=nss soon saw that he was ''sold," and putting the dy- namite box in safe place, requested his good wife to prepare supper as any poor mans wife should, and he would go to the coward and milk the cows,and m the morning pursue the even tenor of his way and peddle the milk.

WHEN President Harrison's letter ci acceptance, four years ago. was put be. fore. the public, the best men in bis party, looked upon it with pride; as a courageous, straightforward manly let ter; clear, firm, logical and conclusive At this date, the.same warm admirers see that MT. Harrison has made good all the promises of that letter, that he is as trustworthy, and as efficient as he was honest in his expressions. That feeling of trust and confidence has spread throughout the.entire country and it will doubtless result in Lis nom- lnaticn at Minneapolis.

England is 10 be represented is fact of great signigcance and hopefulness.
 Just what England will finally do is a matter of guess work. Probably no one can foresee what the position of the representatives of that government will favor, but the indications are favorable. On both sides are to be found theorists deat to the voice of experience. The precious metals are at once commodit- ies. subject to the general law of supply and demand, and they are also money, subject to the edicts of government, which make bits of paper circulate on an equal footing with coin. These mixed factors can neither of them be ignored in the consideration of the gen eral subject.

EVERY right-thinking man, on this coast especially. who has come into contact with the Chinese, will applaud the new Chinese Exclusion Act, accomplished within one day of the expiration Of the old law. It was required to keep out an innundation of the Chinese. No matter what John Sherman may say about It, people on this coast who feel the full weight of the evil of cheap John labor understand better than he can, possibly that it is on tine increase. If China choos- ses to retalitiate, so be it. Long years America got along very comfortably without China or Chinese affairs of any kind and can do it again. Better the ports of China closed against all our commercial relations; better the with drawal of all our missionariy efforts, than that we should feel the dead lifeless weight of Chinese labor, the drain of gold towards China, the accursed opium and other evil habits introduced through these people

WE take pleasure in noticing the ev- idences of improvement in cur sister city of Phenix. Says the Herald. "The construction of additional business places for this city is becoming matter of considerable importance There IS not an unoccupied storeroom on Wash ington or Center streets to-day"
 While that is true of Phenix- we find that there is not an unoccupied business house room, within the busi- ness limits of Tucson. The necessity for the new brick block that is going up to-day at the corner of Congress street and stone avenue, is apparent enough. In that building, three or four business houses, besides the postoffice will be To- cated.

Speaking of the gathering at Mime


 8polis, the Globe-Democrat says:
 "But at Minneapolis there will be a gathering of the party, for the party and by the party. It will not take a trair to carry the statesmen from Wash ington to the Republican National Con- vention this time. Business can 20 on in both branches of Congress simultane- ously with the presidential nomination if it wants to. In respect to its con- gressional contingent the Minneapolis Convention will be generally peculiar. When the Chairman looks down upon the sea of faces he will recognize but few who belong in either Senate or house. It used to be the practice in presidential conventions to have keen- eyed clerk feom Congress stand beside the Chairman and give him the names as delegates claimed recognition. The Washington clerk can be dispensed with at Minneapolis. All of the Sena- tors and Representatives who will be in this Convention the Chairman can count on hls fingers if he has the nor- maj number of digits.
