ARIZONA IS A GOLD TERRITORY.
so SAYS HER GoyERNoR-A PLEA FOR ADMIssIo o.

~ Shi y MN wv TLfsh FUN hDsiFoAN"
TO THE UNION
Washington. Sept. I5-L. c. Hughes, the Governor
OF Arizona in his annual report to the Secretary
OF the Interior. states that during the year the
condition Of the Territory has been Of average
prosperity. The shrinking in the value OF silver has
resulted in the closing Of almost all OF the silver
mines. so that the output during the year less
than 100000 against ss27s.s5 In 1881. Owing to
the absence OF the usual rainfall. extending over
period OF two years there was a loss in range
stock reaching from 90 to ~ per cent. This de-
PRESTON however. has been In measure counter
balanced by renewed activity In other channels The
depression In the price OF silver has slim
uated prospecting and mining for gold with
such good results will, II IL predicted,
place the territory among the leading gold
producing regions OF the Union. The loss In
range stock has been more or less compensated for
by agriculture and horticulture. The increased In
terest manifested in the reclamation ~ ait ,s1ds
has been very pronounced. The population nov
numbers approximately 5000.
The Governor makes a strong plea for the adn q.
sion of Arizona into the Union State. and says
that she has every essential qualification for State.
hood AS to the. politics OF the Territory the Gov.
ernor says that they are about equally divided be-
tween the two parties that this year her gold pro-
duction will exceed tenfold her silver output ana
hence she could be trusted to give her vote for gold
as against silver

BENT on THEIR DESIGN.
DEMOCRATS IN THE HOUSE RENEW THEIR
ILLTNiED CONTEST.
THE FEDERAL ELECTIONS BILL TO BE PUSHED
REGARDLESS OF THE CONSEQUENCES
PARTY DISCIPLINE THE OBJECT.
lBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TRlBUNE.1

Washington. Sept. l5-The Democratic majority In
the House succeeded to-day in getting together
quorum OF its own but not until o'clock. the hour
for delivering the eulogies on the late j. Logan
Chapman, OF Michigan. Mr.. Tucker, therefore, did
not quite succeed yet in reporting the bill which,
according TO Mr. McMillin is to destroy the hell
hounds who had kennels around the halls Of JUS
tice" He will renew the attempt, however. to-mor-
row, and probably meet with the same determined
opposition which has been offered so far by the
Republican minority, under the leadership OF Mr..
Burrows. The contest, aside from demonstrating
the reckless disregard of every sense OF justice ana
fair play on the part of the majority, suggested
the idea that its leaders have become very much
alarmed al the break in party ranks which the
financial debate of the last few weeks has ef-
fected Too many Democrats altogether have per-
United themselves 10 be led astray INTO pains OF
sound finance and honest-money legislation ana IL
seems to be feared that unholy alliance with
Republicans for this and other purposes equally
patriotic, II continued too long. may destroy ois-
cipline and disorganize the party.
The necessity therefore, of bringing to the front
an issue upon which it is thought every Democrat
can unite with the rest of his colleagues becomes
apparent If IL restores the morale OF the RANK
and file and ldndles partisan fervor It's purpose
will have been served Unfortunately MrTucker ana
his friends seem to forget that great part oil the
legislation which they are anxious to wipe on
the statute books is the work of Democrats-North-
erp Democrats to be sure but Democrats still
who used TO stand very high in the partys councils
and who in their day figured as sages
IT Is not unlikely that more than ordinary pres
sure will have TO be brought to bear upon those
who still revere the memory OF those Democrats
TO induce them assist in the destruction OF n sne
work And yet the Northern element In the Demo no
cratic party has proved so subservient to the dc.
mands of its Southern allies in the pas, that hi
may confidently be counted upon TO yieio IN inc
future.
