 Whst 8 pity it is that every demo- crst cannot be a federal office holder thay all appear 70 have as- pira-.ous iu hSt direction.
 Mr Cleveland truly says of his party: If ws see nothing in our victory but license to revel in par tisau spells we shall fail at every po,ut IT the average democrat sees anything else he keeps almighty quiet about it.
 Prophet Fosters storm, due in this section about December 26, is new several days overdue. It seems to have materialized all right and on time n California, but has apparently ether selected another route bo cross the continent or else expended all its force in the golden state
 Indications now point to pros porous times for Prescott next year. The building of the s. F., P. < P. railroad has attracted more atten- tion to this ssction than anything that has occurred for several years. Capital ss being attracted here seek ing Investments in our mines, while other enterprises are also talked of some Of which will materializs and others Bill probably never see the light of day
 Esyspa unity should be we'll represented tt the Columbian expo siuon by a good mineral exhibit. We have wilhout doubt the finest mines ln Che territory and more of them than my other county. All that is eoessary to have them prop eriy reprsseated and advertised in Chicago, where the exhibit will be witnessed by thousands of people, is for mine owners to take out their specimens and send them to Chas.
 i Clark our county commissioner, who wli ship the exhibit and have 2. properly arranged. 1t does seem as if such n opportunity for adver- tising cur mineral resources would D0t be ovsrlooked by the parties in- 5erested
 John L. Sullivan and Champion Corbett are just new i1dulging in pug Est:c encounUer through the newspapers. The ex-ohampion is biubberiug drunk and is represented ss weeping like child, while be- tween tear drops he complains of having been drugged at New Or leans Champion Corbett has lost his temper over the accusations of Sullivan and no longer talks of the lstterfn houeyed sy mpsthizing words 5et says plainly that he '1icked the bully and would like to do it again. A long sugering people had hoped tha; when Sullivan was knocked out alNew Orleans they would be relieg- ed of all further notice of him. It seems, however, that they were mis- ts.en sud nothing but death will hide this bully from the iall Ps4l5s bic gaze gaze While wishing a long life to NIT. Sullivan it is on condition that he stops his blubbering and that he gracefully accepts the position of ex-champion of the world to which position he was relegated by Cor bett.
 The outlook for the Worlds fair next year is by 10 means hatter- ing one, and it would not be sur prising if it had to be postponed. Cholera still turks in Hamburg, in some portions of France and in sev- eral portions of Russia. While the cold weather has stayed its rayages greatly, the fact that it has not long ere this been stamped out entirely is an alarming feature. The history of this plague in former years, as we'll as the opinion of eminent med ical authorities, point to a recur- renee of the epidemic in Eupope in the spring in a more virulent type than was experienced even during the past season. The successful fight made against the introduction of the disease to this country was most remarkable one, but with 1t raging throughout Europe next year, as now seems probable, noth- ing short of miracle could pre- vent its gaining a foothold in this country. Even should the skill of medical science prevent its intro duction to the United States, it does not now seem possible, or an event even to be hoped for that it can be prevented from appearing again in Europe. and in this event 1t would prevent European countries from participating or attending the great exposition. In the meantime, how ever, preparations will go on, the exhibits will be placed and then if l necessary for 8 postponement they l can remain there until the exposi- l ton is opened. While the Ameri- can people are preparing for this great eFent,-the greatest ip the history of our country-they should | also take active measures to prevent | the introduction of cholera. Or in case of its introduction, that its victims may be reduced to the min imum. Congress should make lib eral appropriations for the purpose. Every city, town, village and ham let in the United States should in- augurate the strictest kind of sani- tary regulations, and see that they are enforced. Dreaded as this dis
