CONGRESS SIZED UP.

Representative Payne, of New York one of the prominet republican members of the house of committee on ways and meane. closes a brief and interesting resume of the session of Congress with this pen picture that is bound to be recognized by all who have intelligently watched the doings of the democrats in congress:
 "The leaders have been afraid to trust their followers. Never have rulers become more arrogant than the members of the committee on rules. Never have followers been more craven than the other democrats in the house. So fal as the leaders have followed the Reed rules, the house has been able to dc business. But where the leaders have followed their own devices and have sought to bind the minority not only but the majority, hand and foot, stiflIng all debate, they have absolutely pre- vented the house from passing just ano wise laws, even if the house lad the wis dom to do so. One word-incompetent -fitly characterlzes this congress. This feeling is wide spread. It is we'll voiced in the letter of President Cleveland tc MT. WIlson-'There is no excuse fol mistaking or misrepresenting the feeling and temper of the rank and file of the democracy. They are downcsst under the assertion that their party fails il ability to manage the government The president, in the sentence quoted correctly sized up the situ ation."

GEN. R. A. JOHNSON is a candidate for treasurer of Pima county on the re- publican side. We have never voted for a republican, but if we had vote in Pima county we are afraid that our record would break on Johnson. No better. no more honest, no more capable and efficient man ever wore shoes ln Arizona. And We speak from an &C., qusintanceshIp of nearly twenty years.
 The foregoing excerpt is from the Gila Bend Leader and expresses the true sentiment of the Pima democracy voiced through Maricopa county mouthpiece. General Johnson will not only poll his own party vote, but his we'll known ability and good citizenship will rally around him the best element in the op- posing party.

of Fort Grant.

THE idea, as expressed for Judge A. c. Baker by this mornIng's Gazette; that Arizona's statehood was not put off by the democratic senate with any pur- pose of coercing the people of Arizona in the election this fall but yet declaring that if the territory don't go democratic Arizona will not be admitted by the present senate is inconsistent and bears upon the face of the statement the threats that in words it disclaims. Sub- stantislIy the statement is thls: "We are too busy to let you in before election but if you don'tgo democratic in elec- tion we don't let you in at all." Was there ever a clearer proposition? Was there ever more direct effort made to coerce any people and to force them from their political convictions? Was there ever any narrower policy pursued by any congress at any time ID the history of the country? In the opinion of the Herald the attempt to force the people of Arizona into the democratic ranks at the coming election will result in making the territory strongly repub- licsn or popuIist. It is not the temper of the people of the southwest to be forced into any position, whether it be one they might drift into or not; there is too much independence of character, too much manhood about our citizens to be driven like slaves into any posi- ton. We want statehood but we want admission as fellow citizens in this Union and not as political serfs.-Phoenix Herald.

CURRENT history in Caricature" in the Review of Reviews for September IS very interesting department of that popular magazine. The page of cartoons by Japanese artist on the Corean dis pute forms a striking epitome of the recent progress of the illustrators art in the Flowery Kingdom. Besides these Japanese sketches, there are a number of cartoons on the war in Corea, repro duced from the English and German comic papers, and the usual installment of hit-offs on current social and political events in the United States.

Thomasville a Myth.
Florence Tribune.

| Pinal county is undoubtedly rich
 mineral bearing section, and to-day IS proud to boast of number of fine gold
 properties which will compare very fav-
 orably with those of any other portion
 of the territory, or the Pacific coast. There is ample room for prospectors, ! and ample opportunity for capitalists
 to invest in paying property already de- veloped. With these facts before the public, we have sufficient faith in the | future of our country to rest easily up- on the truth. The exaggerated and highly imaginative article which appear | ed in the CITIZEN of the 26th, is from the pen of Joseph Mulhatton, widely known in the east and south as an erra-
 tic, imaginative, and highly sensational newspaper contributor. Undoubtedly with his vivid imagination, he can already see fifty or one hundred stamp mills pounding away upon rich rock, In his | new creation, Thomasville. From the best information we have, there are a few prospectors, as there always are, ip
 the neignborhood of Dagger Well, but
 as to there being city of tents, it is bosh. We advise all who read the arti- | cle to curb their excitement; avoid the | dangerous rush. There will be plenty
 of room, plenty of lodges and plenty gold after MulhattOn's crowd of eager
 investors have been satisfied, and by | waiting you will not risk either life or | limb in the dangerous scramble for SUD-
 remscy. The publication of such arti- cles as the one referred to in the Citizen has been the source of untold de triment not alone to Pinal county, but to the en- tire territory. That we have vast un- developed resorces, both mineral and | agricultural, no ore who has visItsd us will deny; and upon these veritaOle
 resources we will build an everlasting
 monument of success and prosperity. But, for the sake of truth and humanity
 let us not, by a course Of wiliful mis
 representation, induce people to spend
 their money with no possible show of
 return. An investigation will alywss
 prove the falsity of the unfounded boom, and leaves us worse off than before; for
 we must then not only conquer the diff ! culties which previously beset us, but bear also the burden of correcting the falsehoOds that have gained credence
 through untrue publications.

EDIToRIALLY the Star in its issue of yesterday handsomely complimented the several democrats, who began life at the lowliest rung of the official ladder, on the rapidity of their rise and the fatness of their present holdings. They are the especial fsvorltes of the admins tration, the thistle down and heather bloom of the democracy, and mo irish need apply" while they are waiting for ''rise." That there are many other democrats who yesrn for office is conced- ed, but they have been weighed and found unworthy. Crumbs from the official table must be fed only to the very elect.

THE Maricops county democracy re- pudlates Hughes and his so-called ad- ministration. Tbe thing is corrupt, disreputable and mmorel.-Gazette.
 John, you are away behind. Too much toying with the gentle breakers on the golden sands of the Pacific has evidently sidetracked the fact that the late Maricopa county democratic con- vention endorsed the territorial admin lstration. While it is true that the name of "the administration" or "Gov- ernor Hughes" was not directly men toned the managements of the several territorial institutions were elaborately complimented for thelr efficiency. It was simply another way of getting around a question they did not dare ig- nore. When the territorial convention meets Tn Phoenix, under the very drip pings of the Gazette sanctuary, the en- dorsement will be unequivocal. Like boys out of school the Cockleburrs may talk much of the shortcomings of their master and boast loudly of what they will do, but in his august presence they fall over one another in their efforts to placate, and please him and do his bid ding. When Governor Hughes was in Washington the derisive shouts of the Arizona democracy could be heard as far as Kansas City, but when Governor Hughes returned the silence of the grave was psndemonium in compari- son with the hush that overmantled the faithful. The lion was walking by and they silently prayed he would pass them unnoticed.

FIVE Maricopa county populists met in dark room and Incubated whole convention. This was done by the ap. pointment of three to five delegates from each county in the territory and and then representing each county dele g8tlon by a Maricopa county proxy Buckley O'Neill, of Yavapai, was made standard bearer. The convention was called to order by G. w. Woy, who modestly admitted his willingness to ac- cept the nomination for councilman al large, and MT. Woy was nominated. The platform adopted was as expansive as the Colorado platform was contract, ed. But there was a unanimity about the convention that was truly refresh ing. Everybody wanted an office and it was generally understood that an of. flee they must have even if they swipe the entire democratic party in their ef- forts to get one.

CLEvELAND'S TARIFF LETTER.

Representative Tom Johnson, the Ohio free trader, says of MT. Clevelsnd's last letter: 'It is commonplace. l believe the president is honest, but he does rot know. He harps on free iron ore and free coal, but says nothing about the tax on sugar, which will hurt the democra- ic party worse than anything else in the bill, AS far as we genuine free traders are concerned, the German bill is better than the Wilson bill, because the demo- cratic party would have said the Wilson bill is all right, while now they will be free to repudiate the German bill and fight for further reduction" Now hear what Representative Sperry, of Connec- ticut, who is a democratic protectionist, says: "I was in hopes the President would spare his party the int1lctlon Of another letter. The tariff bill is dis tinctly party measure, and, according to the presidents letter to MT. Wilson, it is measure permeated with peridy and dishonor. If that is a correct de- scription of the bill do not see on what ground the democratic party can ask to be continued in power. It seems by the second letter, to Mir. Catchings, that the tariff fight must be continued.
 This position must be very disquleting to the business interests of the whole country. The democrats are placed on the defensive by those two letters-frst, in defending policy of peridy and dishonor, and second, by threatening business inter ests with further attempts at tariff legis- lation. Every democratic campaign speaker is compelled to defend his party against the allegations contained in those two letters, or else to defend the president against the allegations ID the letters themselves"
 It is needless to quote the opinions Of republicans on MT. Cleveland's letter. They are all delighted with 1t, as 1t squarely makes the issue, which some democrats were trying to dodge, as to the intention of the democratic party, if it be allowed to continue in the msjo- rity in congress, to continue its tariff tinkerfng, regardless of its demoralizing effect upon all industries and business. With that issue squarely defined it remains for the voters to decide whether they will allow the programme to be carried out, and the republicans do not fear the result of the decision.

Politics the Questions of the
 Day.
Republicans Name a Good Ticket They Like their New Railroad.
 Court News

Judge Rouse returned day or two ago from SolomoLville. The new railroad into Solomonville IS privilege fully appreciated by the res | idents of the Gila valley. The trains connect with the Southern Pacific to good advantage. The Graham county people intend to ship fruits and farm products to Tucson and other outside points extensively, and to form a strong competition of the Salt river valley in that regard.
 GRAHAM POLITICS.
 Last Saturday the republicans met m convention and nominated a strong tick ct. Among the nominated were Arthur White of Morenci for sheriff, Frank Dy- sart for tre asurer, Moses Cuff for pro- bate judge, Burt Dunlap for the council and Mir. Hlll for the board of supervi- sors. The ticket is a strong one, and , though Graham is more democratic than most of Arizona, yet good men on the republican ticket may be elected. MT. White, the candidate for sheriff, is nota- ply strong on the ticket. Last election he only lacked six votes for the game office, and it is generally admitted that he will get votes this time he did not get before.
 The democrats of Graham will meet in regular county convention next Tues day, the 11th.
 Court closed at Solomonville just be- fore Judge Rouse's departure. He will open court in Florence the first Monday in October, and will probably not reach Solomonville to hold court there before early in November.
 Judge Rouse is now a resident of Sol- omonville. Pleasant chambers have been fitted up for him, whither he will remove his books. He and his family will board in Solomonville.
