Silver Repeal Bill.

At last, after a lengthy and
strong opposition, Congress has
passed the bill repeating the silver
clause of the Sherman act. The
extra session of congress was called
for this purpose, and it is regretted
by the people of the country at
large that so much time has been
wasted in filibustering tactics be-
fore the much needed vote of
Congress on the measure could be
secured. However, it is at last ac-
complished, and the obnoxious law
is now dead letter. Let it 50 re-
main, buried in the past, as one
of the most disastrous enactments
ever foisted upon the American
people.

That Retaliation Scheme.

The old story of retaliation by
England against the United States
because Of the Mckinley tariff is
being revived. The Jackson Pat
tiot quotes a writer in the London
Economist favoring retaliation by
placing a discriminating duty on
American products, and claims that
England could get a full supply of
breadstuffs from other countries
than the United States that are
more liberal in regard to trade.
Such a policy would absolutely
wreck farming in this country. The
writer referred to census statistics
to show that England could dis
pense with the entire American inn
port without advancing the Liver
pool market perceptibly, while it
would close the American output
for over s17O,0OO,OOO, or about sew
enty per cent of our entire foreign
trade in American farm staples.
Should England make such a dis
elimination it would place the
American farmer at the mercy Of
the hawks and vultures until trade
could be cultivated with other coun-
tries, making our farming and graz
ing lands almost valueless. We'll
might the Blaines Of America de-
nounce the bill and urge reciprocity
as it's only redeeming feature"

gard to which of the two police boards
is the lawful one will soon be
settled by the Supreme Court. The
old board maintains jurisdiction &C
cording to the provisions of the city
charter, and their terms of Office
have not yet expired, and the men,
bers believe they are lawfully en-
titled to act as such.
During the last session of the
state legislature an amendment to
the charter was secretly compiled,
as far as regards the people of AL
pena generally, and this amend
ment was passed by the Republican
legislature. One provision of that
amended charter legislated out of
office all the members of the police
board, and formed new board con-
sisting of five members. BY that
act the legislature claimed the right
to deprive persons lawfully elected,
and whose terms of Office havenot ex-
pired, of their offices, and in place
thereof substitute other persons, in
whose election the people had moth
ing to do. 1.-THE tatelegislature has
the right to deprive members of the
police board of their offices, then it
has the right to legislate out of
office ever township, county, and
city officer, and substitute creatures
of their own in places thus made va
cant. Such powerreally takes away
from the people the right to say
who their officers shall be, and we
do not believe the people of this
country will permit such monstrous
assumption of imperial power, as it
destroys the principles of govern
ment of the people, by the people,
and for the people, and one for
which thousands and thousands of
lives have been freely offered to
The members of the old board
believe that the state legislature
acted unconstitutionally in legislat-
ing them out of the offices they
were legally elected to fill, and they
deny the right of the legislature to
pass such Infamous laws. Conse-
quently they have refused to resign
their positions until the Supreme
Court shall pass upon the question,
and decide whether the legislature
has the constitutional right to leg
islate them out Of office and appoint
others in their places.
To bring the question before the
Supreme Court the new board, last
Wednesday appointed j. w. Gibson
as marshal, but Mr.. Gibson declined
the position, and on Saturday the
new board again met and appointed
Samuel Boggs as marshal. The in
tention is to have the new marshal
demand the books and control of
the police force, which will be re-
fused, and then the court will be
asked to issue an order to place the
new police board in control and
recognize Mr.. Boggs as city mar
shall. Such action brings the whole
question before the court, but their
decision will be final and settle the
dispute.
The sooner the dispute is settled
the better it will be for this city, as
it will remove all doubt as to which
board is the legal one.

A New Certain Cure for Piles.

We do not intend to indorse any except
articles of genuine merit; we therefore
take pleasure In recommending to suffer
ers from Piles in any form. a prompt and
permanent cure. The following letters
speak for themselves:
Mrs. Mary G. Tyler, of Heppner, Ore,
writes: One pkg. Of Pyramid Pile Cure
entirely cured me Of piles from which l
have suffered for years, and 1 have never
had the slightest return of them since.
Mr.. e. O'Brien, Rock Bluffs. Neb,
says: The pkg. Of Pyramid Pile Cure
entirely removed every trace Of itching
piles. l cannot thank you enough for It.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is a new, cer-
tain, painless cure for every form of piles.
1t is safe, sure and cheap. Any druggist
will get 1t for you If you ask him.

Iron and Steel Protection.

How fallacious, unreasonable and
unstatesmanlike are all the argu-
ments that the United States must
have protection against all the rest
of the world in the protection of
iron and steel. A few statistics
published by the British Iron
Trade association" will show how
groundless are the fears, and how
baby-like the plea that Americans
need protection. In 1892 the five
principal iron producing countries
made the following showing in the
nroduction IF MO iron.

TIME TO STOP 1T.

When history shall be written in
detail OF the first settlement OF this ter

first time an adequate expression OF the
sacrifices and sufferings of our people
in contending with murderous Apaches.
In the past we have been situated far
from the seat of government, our set

vast and inaccessible area of country,
our people weak, and it has been diff

grown up within our borders, strong
and full OF confidence in the future.
Law is supreme, the word of God is
preached in our churches, and morality
crowns our school system, the electric
light and telephone are in our midst,
following She telegraph and great lines
of railway; yet, what is far more pre-
cious to US in this world than all the
evidences on earth OF human progress,
is today, in certain sections OF this ter
ritory entirely wanting, namely, secu'
rity OF life.
We have taken the pains to present
in this issue a statement of the move.
ments and surroundings of the "Kid"
and his murderous followers. There is
a stretch of country extending from the
San Carlos reservation to the Mexican
line in the eastern part OF the territory
where the whole population is terror
stricken owing to the fact that this
Apache Indian, with his hands still
dripping with the life blood of such
men as Jake Bowman, may appear at
any time in their midst and repeat his
murderous work.
We have grown patient under suffer-
ing, but has not the time come when
the press, the peoples closest and best
ally, should come forth once more, as it
has so often in the past, and demand of
the territorial and national administra-
tions that this kid" and his gang be
either captured or shot?
Are we to permit an outlaw to re-
main here forever in our midst?
The southeastern strip OF the terri
tory has been now terrorized for more
than the last three years. Is this state

Outside Of the question oil aiding our
own fellow citizenss in their sore dis
tress, the natural interest OF every per-
son in Arizona is directly affected, and
most iniuriOusly by the reputation the
territory is now acquiring for continued
lawlessness through the evil doing Of
one single Apache Indian.

ALL WANT TO KNOW.

The commercial Importance Of Arr
IONA has been matter OF interest
throughout the east, particularly in
New York, that financial pulse Of the
nation. This interest may be in part
due TO her prospective early entrance
into the union of states, but aside from
this there is at this time, in summing
up the monetary condition of the ma
ton after the cataclysm OF the past
three months wish to know how this
territory, lying on the outskirts OF the
Union, has "come out in the wash"
This anxiety in commercial centers is
quite complimentary to Arizona and
may be taken as a sign that her great
resources, the energy and success of her
citizens have at last obtained recogni.
ton where recognition is chiefly de-
sirable.
Last night THE REPUBLICAN received
from the New York World a telegram
desiring an extended telegraphic report
OF the condition OF the territory in gen.
eral and Phoenix in particular, the re-
port to cover the financial outlook and
the prospective condition of trade. 1t
was desired that this report should be
based upon the observation of bankers
and gentlemen of prominence in COM
mercial circles.
The Worlds request was cheerfully
granted, since it could be done with so
much advantage to the territory, and
this morning the more than one hun
bred thousand readers Of the World will
learn that the most distant section OF
the country is in a highly prosperous
condition, and in that sanguine frame of
mind which turns great possibilities into
great accomplishments. That is what
will be read this morning, and when
the four or five days which carries the
World to it's most distant subscriber has
elapsed, this pleasing information will
have been placed before half million
readers.

Lizard Skins from Mexico.

A warm climate and creeping things
go together. According to statistics
compiled by the general government
of the state of Tabasco, Mexico, 500, 900
lizard skins were shipped to the United
States from that state last year. This
peculiar industry is carried on by hun
dreds of natives, who capture the wild
tropical lizards without difficulty
Thousands of the skins are marketed
in Mexico, while large quantities are
exported to European countries. 1t is
estimated that fully 100000 lizards
were slaughtered for their skins in the
state of Tabasco alone last year.
