The candidacy of Alderman Will
lam r. Kerr was from the beginning
a huge joke. Mr.. Kerr, in the ordi-
nary city hall parlance, was never in
it. He withdrew from the race os-
tensibly in the interest Of George B.
Swift, but really because he was un-
able to bring in his own ward dele
cation TO the convention.

Lawrence p. Boyle has rendered an
able and carefully prepared opinion
on the question whether or not there
should be a new registration for the
Mayoralty election Mr. Boyle's
opinion is favorable to the PROPOSE
tion, and it is entirely probable that
date for a special registration will
be fixed by the County Court this
week. Mr.. Boyle'S opinion in this
regard was not surprise. The
wholesale fraud perpetrated by the
Republican campaign managers in
the recent election, through which
thousands Of citizens were dsfran-
chised, had partial effect in
one instance, but could not be
allowed to be perpetrated and carried
along from one election to another.
The voters knocked off the register by
| the hailstorm Of suspect notices could
not get their rights restored by the
ordinary methods, owing TO the cX-
traordinary circumstances surround
ing the public funeral Of the late
Mayor. Mr.. Boyles opinion is that
the courts will sustain the Election
Board in restoring to thousands of
illegally disfranchsed voters their
rights as citizens.

THERE is note of alarm in the

Suggestions from Phoenix.

The following, TO Col. Eyster, is good
enough advice for Phoenix herself:
PHOENIX, May 80, 1893.
Col, G. G. EYsTER, Tucson,
DEAR SIR:
We are agitating statehood over here.
The committee on territories will visit
both Phoenix and Tucson, and no other
Arizona points, about the latter part OF
June and it behooves all Of US to put
our best foot forward.
If that committee should report US
adversely if would be cold day before
we'd ever have another chance. You
folks must put on clean shirts, wa>h
your faces and work like the devil fol
the common end.
Yours truly,
BRUCE PERLEY.

gwen 10 the great nero OF MANKIND
Perhaps her powers were on a Journey
or may be the Santa Teresa herself was
not at home when the insane woman
came. However, she is still insane. An
official of the county drew from the
woman that she lives in Mexico, and
near Magdalera. In view of this the
attempt OF the man who brought her
here from Nogales will be all 10 vain.
He is now quite sick of his bargain-to
bring her to the probate judge here.
Elsewhere appears the call for a mass
meeting for tomorrow night to arrange
for proper entertainment Of the sena e
committee to visit Tucson about the 1sU
Of July. 1t is probable that commit ees
will be appointed to collect cash to pro-
vide the entertainment. A good bust
ness showing will be made by data to be
gathered by another comm ttee. This
data will show that Arizona is ready for
statehood, in intelligence, and what can
be done by statehood against what can
not be acot mnlished without will be set
forth. The gentlemen will probably be
taken through the valley, Hartt's big
ranch and the Grossetta fruit ranch be-
ing among points of interest and in
stances of AriZona's agricultural posi-
biiities to be shown. Tucson has
awakened to the fact that golden op-
portunity TO help the territory is at
hand, and it is not going to be lost.
Another tram load of cattle were ship
ped to Montana today from various
ranches in this part Of the country
They are nearly all two and three-yesr

year or more before being sold for beef
1t will take the animals about month
to reach the graZisg lands. After
travelling over a week on the train they
will be div, n over three hundred miles
to their destination. Most of the cattle
shipped are IN surprisingly good condi-
ton cons dering the shortness Of both
water and feed for the last few years.
The first marriage ceremony in the
new Episcopal church will be per-
formed this evening by the Rev. DR..
McManus. The happy couple will be
Mr.. Theodore Marsteller OF Nogales and
Miss Annie Darms Of this city. The
church has been prettily decorated for
the occasion and large number OF
friends will be in attendance. Both of
the young people are well known in
Tucson where they have always been
social favorites and the pretty BRIDE is
sure to be missed by her many friends.

There was a quick response to the sug-
gestion of popular subscription to help
Gov. Mckinley in the loss of his property
through a friend, and there is little doubt
that every dollar of his loss could have
been made up to him in this way; but
when the New York Tribune informed him
of the receipt OF money for his benefit and
asked him his wish in the matter, the gov
ernor promptly answered that, while deep
ly touched and profoundly grateful for
these expressions, he could not accept the
money. He bears himself in his misfor-
tunes with a nobility which will only in
crease the remarkable personal popularity
which he enjoys. A story, which was
started in Ohio, that Gov. Mckinley was
protected from loss by an insurance of
100000 on Mr.. Walkers life had no
foundation in fact.

The Anti-optlon NH nef.nted.

The anti-option bill met with final de-
feat in the House Wednesday. The de-
feat comes, however, on a motion to take
up the bill out of its order, and not on the
passage of the bill itself. The Republi-
cans gave the bill an overwhelming major
ity, 80 of them voting for it and only %
against it. The Democrats divided, 113
for the bill and 80 against it, The ALI
ance members cast seven votes in the af-
tirmative and the single vote of Jerry Simp-
son in the negative. Republican members
from all over central New York and Penn
sylvania, both the Vermont members and
two of those from Maine were on the side
of the bill.

AHorse,s slide Down mn.

This story is from the Portland Oregon
ian: A horse, which had been hauling
its owner around on an improvised sleigh
a day or two ago, was finally, to his great
astonishment, treated to a jolly coast down
hill. The outfit had reached the top of a
long hill out near Woodstock, and, as
there were no shafts to the sled, it ran up
against the horses heels. He reared up,
and, slipping, fell over backward on the
sled. The driver saw him coming, and
got out of the way. The stakes at the
sides of the sled held the horse on, and
away he went scooting down the hill, till
finally the sled brought up on the railroad
track. The stakes were removed, and the
horse walked out uniniured.

still three seats the occupancy of which is

that the Populist house which helped to

from Montana and Washington, where
legislative deadlocks exist AS the Senate

will be compelled to rely upon that vote in
any case where the Populists do not vote
with them,

Kansns RepubIIcnns WIN.

The supreme court of Kansas has decid-
ed in favor of the Republicans a case in
volving the organization of the house of
representatives, two justices, including
Chief Justice Horton, agreeing, and one, a
Populist, dissenting. The issue was made
in this way: A man named Gum was
summoned as a witness before the cleo
tions committee of the Republican house.
On his failure to appear he was arrested
for contempt on warrant signed by Speak
er Douglass and held in nominal conine-
ment in Topeka. An application for a
writ of habeas corpus was made to the SUI
preme court in his behalf, and arguments
were heard last week. By denying the
writ, the supreme court has now adjudged
the Republican house the lawful lower
branch of the legislature.

The Negroes of Virginia.


What does the auditors report show
that is favorable to the negroes of this
state?
In 1865 they owned nothing. They now
own real property, improved and un-
improved, to the value of $9,425, ,0S5.
They own personal property to the value
of 50, ,342 $50, thus making the grand total
value of the property owned by colored
people in this state S12, 76S, ,035. This is
the result of twenty-seven years accumula-
tons, under the most adverse circum-
stances, with wages akin to those of
Europe.
The figures show another thing, namely,
that the negro has saved on an average
since the war S473, 260 per year.
Number of colored pupils attending the
public schools of Virginia, 2,050.
The percentage of attendance of the
whites was 10, while that of the colored
was 49,
Is not that creditable showing? The
number of white pupils supplied with text
books at the expense of the counties ant
cities was $500, while the number of color
ed so supplied was only 1922.

The navy department has just completed
designs for powerful battery for the New
York, the magnificent ocean steamer ad-
mitted into American registry last week.
1t will be remembered that this ship is so
stanchly built that it can be used as an
armed cruiser and transport vessel in case
of war. The battery, as designed, consists
of II six-inch breech-loading rifles and 20
smaller rapid-ire guns. The fighting com
plement is to consist of 800 men. The
great speed of the New York will enable
her to overtake nearly any merchant vessel
ahoat and to escape the attacks of nearly
any foreign armed cruiser. If worse came
to worst, however, she could protect her
self with her heavy battery.
