Democrats have tried to smile and
 look pleasant as one candidate after another has this year declined to offer himself up for the party sacrifice. They have ignored the insinu ation that these men have not refused to be can didates because of reasons made public but because they were practically assured of defeat. Now an old Demo- cratic standard bearer, Senator Me Emerson of New Jersey, sees the pros-
 pect or the lack of prospect, and abso- lutely declares he will not make another race for the senate. Demo- crats will pass this over and make light of it as they have of the many similar cases this year, but they can. not fail to be impressed with the sig nifcance of such actions. When men like McPherson fear defeat, Democrats may be assured it is Republican year.

a frequent observation of such journals that the people will not permit silver money to circulate. Any one who will turn to the statements issued by the treasury department may ascertain not exceed fifteen million dollars. All the other silver, coin and bullion, is represented by paper currency, every dollar of which is accepted by the people without doubt or question. The assertion that silver held as the basis of paper circulation is "useless" hardly requires contradiction. If the silver deposits which are behind the green backs are useless. then the gold de- posits which are behind the greenbacks are equally useless. The status of the two metals, with respect to the par Ter money issued upon them as a base, is precisely the same. Both metals perform the same iunc- tion in upholding paper notes which are actively at work as repre- sentative money, making the ex- changes of commerce. This fact of course is known to the editor of the New York Tribune and to all the other editors who write upon the subject. But the purpose of these journalists is Go mislead uninformed persons. by creating the false impression that the treasury is overloaded with silver which is as useless for money purposes as if the silver dollars and bars were mere brick bats.
 Resort to such contemptible subter- fuges IS not result of choice. The ad- vocates of the gold standard must rely upon just such paltry matters, for ne other or better answer can be found tc the arguments in favor of return tC bimetallism which are continually be- ing thrust into their faces by the great est writers and thinkers of both con tinents. The constant reiteration O just such clumsily constructed false hoods as the statement of The Tribun that the silver dollars lie unused in the treasury indicates the desperate strait to which the gold bugs are reduced.
 The people of Arizona and of th' whole west and south demand the re cognition of silver and the demand mus be respected.

Napoleon as a Marksman.

Although Napoleon was great gen. eral, beyond dispute, it appears from some rece ntly published recollections of two of his favorites that he was a very poor marksman. Yet he was fond of hunting, and something had to be done to cater to his vanity. It seems that whenever stag was brought to bay, it was usual to leave the animal to be killed by the emperor On one such occasion he could not be found and the master of the hounds did the business. Suddenly, Napoleon was seen approaching, and the stag was hurriedly propped up on his legs with tree boughs. The gun was handed to the emperor, and he fired at the stag, whereupon the master of the hounds slightly disturbed the boughs, and the stag fell to the ground. Napoleon was completely deceived, and observed, complacently: After all, am not so bad a shot as they try to make out. ."- Golden Days.

 Col. W. J. Cotton is one of the Re- publican nominees for justice of the peace. He is universally known and highly respected. His intelligence is conceded and his judgment ripened by legal experience. No better man could be chosen to fill the place for which he has been named.

CREMATING GARBAGE.


 The disposal of garbage in such a manner that it shall not interfere with public health and comfort, has long been disturbing problem in cities of any size; and long series of experi- ments has eliminated in the crematory, where the garbage is quickly reduced to bit of harmless and inodorous ash. Among the cities which have brought the cremation of garbage down to 8 science, according to published ac- counts. is Wilmington, Del, which city, with population of 10000 and 371a miles of completed sewers, cremates all it's garbage, the whole matter being in the hands of the health department. The crematory is ifty-three feet long, with an inside width of nine and one- half feet, and stands nine feet high. It is lined with glazed fire brick, and surmounted with a jacket in which water is kept circulating. The garbage is fed to the crenatorv from above through half dozen openings, and there are number of port holes on each side which can be opened to view the condition of the contents. The only machinery used is small engine which works pump and turns a blower, and strong draft is constantly acting on the garbage. Coal oil intro- duced from a tank is used as fuel, The crematory has capacity of sixty tons day, and from January l to August 1 of the present year 1855 tons of gar bage had been cremated at 8 cost of forty nine cents ton. The oil is mixed with steam and superheated air. and the spray from this, when ignited, develops heat of from 1,SO0 to 2,2OO degrees ''It is in the residuum," says writer in Harper's Weekly, "that may be found the full proof of the absolute in, cineration of the mass. The resultant as drawn from the crematorv was a fine pulverized mass, with here and there fragments of bones. These bones were so friable that they broke under the l fingers. There was not the faintest odor to thls residuum. A paper box full of this vegetable and animal ash was carried to the writer in a saUche' containing personal apparel, and there was no appreciable taint.''

PALTRY LIES, NOT ARGUMENT.
 The advocates of gold monometalism depend upon persistent misrepre senta- ton of fact for promulgation of their theories. Thus the New York Tribune, few days ago, declared that "more than 250 million silver dollars are lying useless in the treasury" and it is

Congressional.

WASHINGTON, July 26.-Indications
when the Senate met at noon to day
were that the struggle over the reso-
luton to agree to further conference
on the tariff bill asked by the House
would be ended before the adjourn
meut. in the morning hour some
debate occurred over the clause of the
conference report on the Army APP
preparation bill transferring the
Apache Indians held as prisoners Of
war, in Alabama, to military reser-
vations in the west. Dubois pro-
tested against sending these Indians
to Oklahoma, and Blackburn's open
charge of the Republicans trying to
delay faction on the appropriation
bills incensed Dubois and Henderson,
who accused Blackburn of bad faith
in receding from the amendments he
offered.
You had no right to recede," said
Dubois.
II had a right" replied the Ken
lucky Senator holly, "and Sena-
tors attempt to define my rights on
this floor is piece of impudence
which resent"
@No more than resent yours" re.
torted Dubois.
The conference report was agreed
to by vote of 39 to 18. Then at
1905 Jones called up the tariff con-
ference report.
Pending the question, was the de-
cision of the chair on the points of
order raised by Gray and Mills
against Washburn's motion to in
struct the Senate conferees to recede
from the eighth-cent differential on
sugar above the 16 Dutch standard.
Henderson argued against a point of
order, maintaining with vigor, it was
competent for a Senate to instruct it's
conferees. Senator Harris in the
chair sustained the point of order
against Washburn's motion, and an
appeal was taken. The vote on the
motion to lay the appeal on the table
was tie of 80 to 80 and the motion
was lost. The negative vote consisted
of twenty eight Republicans, Hill,
DEM Allen, Kyle, and PETER, (Pop.)
Stewart did not vote. Those voting
in the affirmative were all Democrats
The vote on Washburn's appeal from
the decision Of the chair resulted:
Yeas 80 mays 80. The Senate hav-
ing failed to sustain the chair, the
vote reoccurred on the the motion of
Washburn to instruct the conferees
