FUSION.

campaign of last fall; and great

for that was the last day for making
up the state ticket, under the
Australian law. The executive COM
mittee was not consulted; neither
were the state candidates. If it
was a mistake it was an honest mis-
take of judgment on the part of one
man. But it was not a mistake. It
was the right thing to do under all
the circumstances.
And this is all there was to Justify
the cry of fusion, which cost us not
less than 10000 votes.
But the "organ" of the Peoples
party raised a terrible howl. 1t
charged that the Peoples party
had fused with the Democrats: had
sold out our principles. 1t cried
out, "Good God! Have we nothing
to do but return the Democratic
party to powera" The Repu blican
papers took up the cry; they quoted
our own organ; and we lost 90
600 votes and failed to carry the
state.
Our Organ did not dare to charge
directly that there was any bargain
on the part Of those four electors,
or any one of them, to vote for
Cleveland. If there had been such
a bargain that would have been
fusion, so far as they were con-
cerned; but even then the Peoples
party could not have been held re-
sponsible for an individuals private

MEssRs. SoNTAG and Evans deny par ticipation in the Collis train robbery, but admit the killing of detectives on principle. Their regret at having been unable to draw finer bead on our own Will Smith is second only to the regret at capture. By the way their dispar- aging remarks concerning MT. Smith, whose back they saw frequently as he was scampering out of range, are more damaging to the doughty detective than was their misdirected aim in their various encounters with him.

IT IS estimated that fifty carloads of vegetables are annually brought from California to Phen K, in payment for which, large sums of money are sent out of the city. This is nothing else than gigantic waste. All this might be produced at home without inter. ference with any other industry except possib ble that of the railroads, which would thus be deprived of immense freight receipts. The people of Phoenix are guilty of no other expenditure so causeless and foolish, and we hope that next year: we may be able to supply our more thrifty neigh bors on the coast with bigger potatoes and better cab bages than they can raise at home. There is wide field for market garden ing here on an extensive scale.

THE GOVERNMENT appears to have failed in the Borden case and on the foundation upon which the scaifold of Lizzie Borden was to be erected, to have been able only to raise a ghastly and unsolvable conjecture. At the close of the prosecution's testimony night be- fore last the chain which WAS to be welded about her, consisted only of a lot of disconnected links. The only ap- parent possibility of conviction lies in the ability of the government to ob- tain damaging evidence from the de- fendant's witnesses on cross.examina- tion

ABOUT POKER HANDS.

The Gazette reproduced yesterday morning that time honored, but pleas ant fiction of a sporting gentleman who desired to obtain loan from bank, offering as collateral poker hand cot- ssting of four kings and an ace. The story was told, however, with a varia- ti5n from the original, which, while i' relieves monotony, betrsys & lament. able unfamil!arlty with the principles of the game oi poker. The story briefly is as follows: A gambler whose wealth had been absorbed in an uncompleted jack pot held four kings and an ace, which, under the rules of the game was invincible. He was given half an hour in which to raise more money. In the presence of the other players he en- closed in a sealed envelope the hand whose precise character was presuma- bly, unknown to his associates, and ac- ccmpanied by them proceeded to the nearest bank to obtain $5,000.
 The cashier declined to accept the collateral and the gambler was leaving wHeu he met the president, to whom another appeal was made. That off. cial happening to be man of varied accom- mplishments, recognized the value of the securities offered and enthusi. astically ordered the loan.
 His subsequent instructions to the cashier, according to the Gazette, were az 'oiows: "Remember that in future four kings and an ace, flushes barred, are always good in this institution, for our entire assets, sir-our entire as- sets"
 This however is not precisely what the bank president said.
 For "hushes" the quotation should ,J"ain, "straights."
 What difference could it make to four kings and ace whether "hushes" were barred or not?
 A straight" however of the royal variety would ca-se embarrassment and even disaster.
 So the bank president evidently said "straIght" instead of "hush," which | would not have been potent against even full house."
 Attention is called to this contretemps, in the first place in the interest of ab. solute accuracy; in the next place in the interest of speculative gentlemen whose ideas of the relative values of poker hands may be gathered from the Ga;ete and who may thereby be mad. veriantly overwhelmed with financial loss; Tn the last place in the interest of the Gagehe itself.
 No newspaper writer should attempt subject with which he is not quite familiar. A baseball editor may furnish passable description of a race, a prize foht, or any other sporting event but the society editress would almost cer- tainly fall down" in the description of 1t. When the horse reporter is turned loose at church sociable or Sunday school convention, journalistic humiliaton will surely follow.
 Method and system should prevail in newspaper offices and we think the GassIte erred in permitting a man
