WASHINGTON, Nov. lO.-In refusing
executive clemency to Dennis T. Shea,
convicted of embezzling letters from the
Boston post-office, President Cleveland en-
dorsed on the papers: II cannot see in the

teaching the lesson that those who crimi-
nally abuse their trust in official places
and rob the government cannot expect
executive clemency.n

Phoenix Republican, Rep.
The Gazette has no use for any
body it can't control. In making
his appointments Governor Hughes
ignored its very existence. It's eff
forts to control the administration
in other directions have been futile.
The governor has incurred its en-
nifty and like many of the best and

wear the Gazette collar or pay 1t

News, Dem.
The Gazette of Phoenix predicts
the early removal of Governor
Hughes, but the prediction is gener.
ally regarded as arising from local
jealousy and not in the least likely
to occur. He has good tight
cinch on the Office and will no

| The Gazette still continues its
war upon Governor Hughes. The
brethren do not dwell together in
unity and the iron has entered the
soul. OF course, as Republicans,
we are not abroad pouring oil on
the troubled waters of Democratic
politics, but we do propose to stand
by Governor Hughes till we know
that we are going to get something
better. The Governors prediction
for gold standard we believe to
be pernicious, but aside from this
he has done as well as any Demo
crat could have done. His APP
pointments, with but one or two
exceptions, have been excellent.
This much is accorded with common
consent Citizen, Rep.
These are but few, and in all
cases they reflect the sentiments OF
their readers. The press and the

The Gazette says a strong petit
ton has been sent to Washington
asking for the removal of Governor
Hughes, the petition containing
283 names. Isn't that petition a
whopper to go up from the great
Territory of Arizona, which is now
big enough to be asking statehood I
That petition, however, represents
the full strength of the Gazette s
forces in the territory. Wouldn't
have thought the great journal
would have given away its strength
that way.

In the matters Of brains and
angelic character We leave the peo-
pie of this territory to judge
whether the editor of the Gazette
is superabundantly supplied with
the one or invulnerable ia the
other. If personalities are the
arguments which the Gazette pro
Posss to rely on in its opposition
to Governor Hughes, and those are
the only arguments which it does
use or is capable of using. then we
say its dirty "yawp" is impotent
and unworthy the notice of decent
people. We could deal in personal
tiles ourself if we deigned to, but
this would be outside the pale of
decent journalism. For the infor-
nation of the Gpzette, whose editor
was former Republican Office
holder in this territory, we will say
that it requires no brains to make
dirty personal assaults on an OPP
ponent. This accounts for the fact
that the able journal above named
never was known to use any other
form of argument.
