Dcspisc Not the Day OF small Thtugss
There was once a tiny grain Of sand
that had lain quietly for some years
on the tar-and.gravel roof Of biz

One day a brisk breeze came along

But the tiny grain OF sand shrunk

Garage.
And the diUniHed citizen took out
his handkerchief and rubbed his eye
hard. and the terrified little grain Of
sand crept up between the lid and
the eyeball, until 1t found a spot II
could crawl into. and IL put Itself
right there.
And all the rest OF that day the
dignided citizen rubbed his eye and
grOaned, and he lay awake all night

went I, an oculist.
And the oculist hunted all over his

From number of persons, each appear ing to have unlimited knowledge of Yuma, we had been treated to descriptions of that town, but until Monday of this week we had never seen it.

We dis covered that Yuma is town. quite town, in fact large-sized town, possessing a present favorable aspect of business, not withstanding dull times, and future pros pect almost inconeeivable.
 We do not purpose going into a topog raphic description of tue town. It must be seen to be appreciated.

ONE year ago last Thursday the nomination of Gov. L. c. Hughes for governor of Arizona was con- firmed by the United States Sen ate. At that time it was prophe- sled by dissatisfied members of his own party that he would not be In office six months hence. TWlce that length of time has passed and keis still the Governor of Arizona and the present indications are that he will remain Governor dur ing the Democratic administration Arizona has never before had 8 governor who has taken the h. terest or had her welfare more al heart than Governor L. c.

The Arizona sentinel., 1894-04-07

WE respectfully call the atten- ton of the Republican members of our own honorable Board of Super visors to the following article taken from the Tucson Citizen of the 3rd inst:
 Mayor Pery's announcement last nlgnt during the last moments of the meeting ol the city council, that he was a republican and proposed with the help of the three republicans in the council to appoint repub- Tcans to fill the vacancies in the city offices, lately held by republicans, elected at the re- cent city election by the republicans, was the keynote to success in our party matters When the last city election was held the democrats had five members of the council, and tbey filled the offices with democrats, as they had right to do; as long as they selected honest, respectable men. After redhot fight this state of affairs was changed and the republicans carried everything Ill sight at the last city election, which gave them the mayor and half of the councllmeni enabling the republicans to appoint repuP' licans to fill such vacancies as may occur during the present year. We have respect enough for our political adversaries to kno" that under like circumstances the democrats would take advantage of the situation and would select their men from the rank and file of the democracy. Neither would re- publicans expect to tickle them under the chin and get them to forego their rights If they calculated on such state of affairs they would be sadly disappointed, as the strono point of a democrat is, that he never losses sight of the fact that he is a democrat when it comes to distributing pap. Let us look on the other strong point of democrat and we will find it to be a greasy aptitude to lubricate weak republicans into yielding into his hands the fruits of ofanearned victory To say that democrats are immence at thl' foxy undertaking is to express it mildly | successful in their efforts they will con fdentiaIly inform their followers the next day that the poor victim did something they would not have done under similar circum- stances and at the same time express theH contempt for the man who proved so plaini a tool in their hands. Their sentiments arc correct. A man elected by his party owe: his vote to his party, he is under obligations to his party and it should not be necessary for republicans to work early and late t' get a republican vote out of him.
 The mayors pronunciamento is right anC that he and the council will uniformly ivt up to the idea that we have republican majority, we do not question, as the circum stances demand strong republican hand Il city affairs.
