Convention looked for av ,iIable csndi.
dates, hey selected Mr.. Frost, knowing
that the business Of the county would
receive as great attention and close scru.
tiny as he always applied to his indi-
vidual affairs, and the county will be
fortunate to count our Democratic friend
Nc. w. Z. Frost, as Q member OF the
Board Of Supervisors.
w. +. Frost is the largest stock raiser
OF Northern Arizona, has cattle and
horses by the hundreds and thousands,
and the splendid pastures he owns and
grszes over, keep his stock always in
prime condition. He furnishes eastern
and California markets with fat beef
and forgets not TO sell the good people
OF Kingman the choicest steaks and
chops. Kingman without our friend
Frost would be devoid Of the luxuries
and necessities Of good dinner.
W. E. Frost has worked as journey.
man butcher in the cities OF Chicago,
Detroit and Omaha.
In 1880 he came to this co Ast, having
taken contracts on the new A. & p. X. X.
In 1888 he opened the first successful
meat market at Kingman, his preds-
cessors not having been prosperous, ne
soon had branch markets At DAggstt and
the Needles, and sold on the average
ten head Of beef = day. He also had the
contract to supply the WAllxpAi Indians
with meat, and with this large and
profitable business laid the foundation
OF his prosperity. II, built the present
Crosier & Mckenzie block and erected
q handsome residence for his own fam.
lily. 10 1889 he sold his markets here
and At the Needles to Crozer & Mack.
snzie, and only lately started in active
business at Kingmsn again.

ardent support Of his many friends on
election day.

Springs and Mr.. Fay has other valuable
silver and gold properties in Cheme.
hueva mountains.
Mining has always been the principal
occupation Of his life, he would not be
contented were he not actively or In.
teres,edly engaged In 1t.
The only fault We have to find with
our friend and we are sure our lady
friends will agree with Us, 10 that he has
remained in stale OF single blessed ness.
but we hope he will improve upon this
lonesome condition, by making one OF
the girls happy.
Colonel Fay is the populisr candidate
for Sheriff Of Mohsve county, and no
will make race worthy Of bis energy,
and will demonstrate to the people Of
Mohsve county how highly he is re-
spected and how eminently ft he is for
that responsible position by the large
number Of votes he will receive.

Michael Red ma n.

Every body in Kingman and Mohsve
county know honest Mike Redman, for
he has made friends by the hundreds
since he has cast his fortunes with the
balance Of the good people Of Mohsve
county. Mr.. Redman is Of an ambitious
turn Of mind, and having studied the
knotty problem Of law, he came to the
conclusion to present his name for the
office Of Justice OF the Peace OF Kingman
township, and the republican party.
whose ardent supporter Mr.. Redman is,
jumped at his conclusion and nominated
him viva voce for that honorable and
important position.
Michael Redman was born in Bavaria,
Germany, IN 1912, but A. the tender age
of three years he had the great misior-
tune TO lose both his parents, and his
paterDal uncle took charge Of the little
orphan and shortly after took him along
10 the hospitsble shores of America,
settling in the old Hoosier State, Frank.
lin county, where the little orphan lived
for term of eleven years, receiving q
good country school education.
He learned the shoemakers's trade in
Cincinnati, Ohio, and when Abraham
Lincoln issued his first proclamation for
$4,000 volunteers, young Mike tried to
volunteer, but his guardian objscted to
this proposition. In 1852 he enlisted as
a government teamster, driving an am.
mnnition wagon during the battle Of
Shiloh, and as soon as his term Of enlist.
ment was ont. again offered his ser.
vices to the U s. government by enlist
ing in the I'd Regiment U. 8. A. He took
part in many Of the battles of the war,

Harley Fay

Is without doubt the most representa-
tive man on the Populist ticket, to which
he adds strength and dignity. While
the MINER differs with the Colonel on
the political method OF attaining Free
Silver Coinage, while We assert that
such measure can only be brooght
aoout through Democratic channels, we
cannot forego the pleasure OF compli-
menting our old and honored friend on
the manly, honest stand he takes in this
exciting campaign.
Coioney Harley Fay is 9 pioneer Of
this western coast, having arrived at San
Francisco when mere boy of thirteen.
He was born At st. Clair, Michigan, IN
1857, and In 1850 accompanied his faith.
er 10 California, where they only re-
NAMED a short time on their way 10
Portland. Oregon. Portland was only
little country town in those early days,
bot the gres. possibilities OF that timber
section prompted Mr.. Fay ST., to es-
tsollsh the first sash and blind factory
on the Pacific coast, from which enter
prise he would undoubtedly have reaped
. golden harvest, md not the newly dis.
covered gold mines in Northern Califor.
n a drawn him to that section in quest OF
the hidden wealth. For SIX years the
father mined and eng tged in merch An.
dising, and was ably and successfully
assisted by his energetic son Harley,
whom he left in California in easy cir
cumstAnces, and hid him last good
bye on his return to his family in
Illinois.
The spirit Of adventure and Of mining
was so thoroughly imbued in young FAy's
constitution, that when the great Com.
stock mines were discovered he was one
oil the very 6rst to be found on the
booanzs fields, and mining 10 that sec.
ton, he met with varied success. After
leaving Nsvad. ne went to Idaho and
Montana, and in 1870 he made his first
voyage back to the scenes OF his child
hood and remained about one year and
one half. Bot the eastern way Of living,
the monotony Of the every day life there
did not suit the sturdy young Pacific
coaster, and packing his valise, saying
20 I'd bye 10 friends and relatives, he in
1872, returned tn the land OF gold and
silver, and mined for the space OF six
years in Nevsds and CAlifornis until
in 1873, he cast his fortunes with the
rich and prosperous territory Of Arizona.
He has been one 3f the foremost citizens
Of Mohsve county since his arrival. His
magnetic personality. his charity and
his stesdfast friendship towards rich and
poor, young and old, has endeared him
to the people OF the county. We can
state without a chance OF opposition that
Mr.. Fay has never been appealed TO tor
assistance, when the same was not
granted, even il it was not meritorious
one.

To Subscribers.

We do not use the columns of the RE-
PORTER to any great extent to urge
upon subscribers in arrears. the impor-
lance, to Us, of their paying up, but it
is getting to be about the time of year
we send out statements to all subscrib-
ers who are one year or more behind, and
those who will make payment before
January lst, 1885, will save us the eX-
pense aud labor of sending them po-
lite invitation to call and pay or remit
the amount due US. \ word to the wise
ought to be sufficient.
We have to say, further, to our
friends, that we offer as inducement for
subscribers to payup, that we will settle
all arrearages to January LIST at Sl.50
per year and that we will give advance
paying subscribers to that date, fourteen
months time for the price of one year.
Please let us hear from YOU early, and

President Cleveland having created all
the disturbance to industrial and bust
ness affairs he could by tariff agitation,
it is reported, now purposes to raise a
new issue and recommend in his annual
message a radical reform of the currency
by the substitution of credit currency
by the banks for the present system of
legal tender paper. We believe the Dem
ocracy can agree upon no system OF
fuance however great its merits may be
and, that thoroughly discredited party
ought to give the country rest for the
reminder of Clcvcltnd's term. But it
won't. Democracy at work upon the
currency would be akin to bull in a
china shop

ing, corner of Main and Railroad streets
occupied by Charles 5. Flanders, black
smith, and b. X. Rackill', wheelwright
at l2.30 Wednesday morning. The in
side of the blacksmith shop was burned
entirely over. while the shop of Mr.
Racklin, which was in the rear of the
building. was injured by water, Mr.
Flanders loss will be about $500, on
tools and stock; no insurance; and the
loss on building will not exceed $1,000
probably insured. The building was
owned by Hon. V. r. Common.

Democrats at Washington now admit
that Republicans will control the L. 5.
Senate after March 18th next. They
now have IS votes, including Senators
Stewart and Jones. They gain one
vote each from Montana, Wyoming,
Washington, West Virginia, New Jer-
sey, and Kansas, taking three from the
Democrats and two votes from North
Carolina, which will give them total
vote after March A. 1885, of 46 Senators,
while 45 would be a majority. The two
North Carolina Senators will be likely to
vote with the Republicans on organlza-
ton. though one of them may be Popu-
list.

The st. Louis a mammoth steam ship
of 200 tons, was launched from
Cramps shpyard, Philadelphia, Pa
Monday, the largest ship ever launch
ed on the Delaware or any other Amer-
can ward. Mrs. Cleveland did the chris
tening act by gracefully breaking the
bottle of wine as is the custom in such
cases. President Cleveland and men,
bers of his cabinet were present and
about %. 900 other people. The lnterna-
tional Navigation company built this
vessel in pursuance of the company's
promise to construct two steamships. in
this country of equal tonnage to its
steamships Paris and New York, if Con-
gress would pass II bill admitting the
latter vessels to American registry.
Congress passed the bill and it became Il
law in 1892. Soon afterwards the Inter-
national Navigation company, placed an
ort,er with the William Cramp 81 Sons
Slip and Building company, to con.
struct two steamships to meet the bills
provision. This is the first of two mann
moth ships to be launched. The ST..
Paul will be launched later. Both ships
are American from truck to keelsCm
All offers of foreign mills and FORCES to
furnish material were refused and every
ton of material used in the vessels is of
native production, and American brain,
skill and muscle have constructed the
steamships.
