SOUND REASONS. Democrats Who Will Vote for Gov. Murphy. Are for Arizona Rather
 Than for Party. Republican Victory the Short est Route to Statehood. Expression of Views by Prominent Democrats Who Speak for
 Hundreds of Others.

When men prominent in business and politics depart temporarily from the policy and purposes of their party their reasons for doing so are always subjects of deep interest and constitute good reading matter for thoughtful men.
 In view of the number of prominent Democrats who have publicly an- nounced their support of Mir. Murphy, a REPUBLICAN reporter yesterday visited several of them. The gentlemen whose views are given below expressed them selves with enthusiasm. A long list of similar interviews might have been secured, but these embrace the reason which animate all.

Mai. J. w. Evans.

Mai. J. w. Evans was seen next. "Am for Murphy?" he repeated. q certainly am and I am pleased to say why. I believe Governor Murphy can do better work for the territory than MT. Herndon. I have always been and I am now an active and consistent worker for statehood. I think that is the highest blessing that can fall on Arizona and I believe it can be procured earlier by MT. Murphy's election. I do not apprehend that anything will be done in the short session about state hood and the next congress will almost certainly be Republican so it is neces- sarv to have Republican delegate.
 "There are several senators of both parties in the east opposed to admission on the ground that Arizona would bring in two more silver senators. We must therefore depend upon the senators from the south and what Republican senators we can influence in the west to join forces with Democratic senators from the same section who are already friendly to us. Governor Murphy can do this better than any Democrat. In short Pm for Governor Murphy be- cause I prefer Arizona and statehood to the success of my party. After Ari-

Yavapai County.

Special to THE REPUBLICAN.
 PRESCOTT, Nov. 4.-As careful a can- vass as possible has been made of the vote in this county by the Republican central committee, and the committee believes that the majority for the head of the ticket may be safely placed at 250. There will be a Republican gain of 300 over two years ago. It is ac- counted for by an increase in popula- tion and a tendency this year to vote the Republican ticket. DoranFs ma jority will not fall behind. The com mittee claims the entire legislative ticket. The Populist vote will cut no important figure in the result.

A Business Mans Reason.

Said Hon. James A. Fleming:
 "Yes, I am for Governor Murphy for delegate to congress, and am Demo- crat. I am. however. more for the pro- gress of Arizona than am for the mere temporary success of my party.
 ''I am for statehood, the assertion of certain newspapers to the contrary not withstanding. I am in favor of holding out inducements to outside capital to come to Arizona. I don't see how we are to progress otherwise. We don't want to build @ wall about our town and eur county and say that outsiders shall not come in with their money, cheir enterprise and their push and l help us along.
 My faith in Phoenix is evidenced by my investments in the valley. I have faith in our future. 1 am directly in- terested in our advancement. This is why I am for N. o. Murphy. I know personally that N. 0. Murphy saved the north and south road by his efforts when 1t seemed doomed to failure.
 q have not time, nor have I the in- clination to deny in detail the assertions of those who either carelessly or maliciously state that am averse to Fstatehood. 1 will only say that 1 have contributed 1 believe as much money as any other single individual to ad- vance the the cause of statehood. There can be no important progress under a ] territorial government and no good in ducement to investors, 1 may say in 1 illustration that my investments have not netted me 2 per cent per annum.
 II believe that Governor Murphy can do more for Arizona as delegate to con- gross than any other man, as he has certainly been valuable in the past. To illustrate his energy and interest in the territory: There was a party of Philadelpians coming to Ph9nix to make investments. He procured free transportation for them on the Santa Fe, met them at Prescott brought them to Phoenix and entertained them at his own expense at cost of perhaps $125. Their object in coming was to purchase ground and erect an expensive hotel. The only obstacle to the enterprise was the high freight rate on material. They went away not abandoning the enter prise but to wait until there were ad- ditional railroad facilities. And by the way those gentlemen are so deeply interested in Governor Murphy's cleo tion that they have instructed me to telegraph them the result. 1 am for Gov. Murphy for the good of Arizona" :"

Yuma County.

Special to THE REPUBLICAN.
 YUMA, Nov. 4.-In 1892 Yuma gave Smith, Democrat, a majority of A, and Gulf, Repu blican, for councilman-at- large, 9. Reports received from most of the election precincts indicate that the Republican ticket will receive small majority. Local causes are affecting the canvass on the legisla- tive ticket, so no approximately ac- curate estimate of the result can be given. There is an increase in the voting population over TWO years ago but this incress. is about represented in the Populist strength.

MIR. MURPHY'S POSITION.
The Story of His Relation to Mor-
 mon Citizens. The Graham County Times thus

mon Citizens.
 The Graham County Times thus speaks of Mir. Murphy with reference to the Mormon vote:
 Every effort is being made to misconstrue Mr. Murphy's position on the test oath. At a meeting at Thatcher. Graham county, Monday night, before an audience of Mormuns Gen eral Sampson called MT. Joseph Fish, an in fuential Mormon, to prove that in 1892, Gov ernor Murphy called his attention to an Idaho paper with an account of a meeting of the Re publican territorial convention, with a resolu ton reciting President Woodruffs manifesto to the Mormon people to abandon polygamy and recommending the repeal of the test oath. ssThat," said Governor Murphy to MT. Fish in 1892 "is my position on this question:" Governor Murphy went on to Washington and made an argument to the president advo- eating amnesty to the Mormons, and that argument was most potent in inducing MT. Harrison to issue his proclamation. On that point MT. Harrison has telegraphed Mir. Murphy from New York as follows:
 NEW YORK; Oct. 26, 1S94 HON, N. o. MURPHY, CLIFTON, Arizona: recollect well your visiting me in Washing ton to urge the proclamation of amnesty for the Mormons.

zona becomes state we can afford to stick to politics"
Always a Democrat,


 'I hear you're going to vote the Re publican ticket," said the reporter to Joseph Pratt. "I've never voted a Republican ticket in my life," replied MT. Pratt, land do not think 1 ever will, but if you mean you heard 1 was going to vote for Governor Murphy, that's different matter. 1 am voting for him for several reasons, but none of them because he is Re- publican. I believe in the first place that to vote for him at this time is the duty of every man in Arizona who cares more for Arizona and prosperity than politics, and 1 am no politician. His wider acquaintance with men and pub lie matters certainly make him more valuable representative for the territory than MT. Herndon. When 1 was in California last summer I met many prominent men, politicians and others. They all knew Governor Murphy and spoke highly of him. The California delegation in congress can be of great service to Arizona and it is advan- tageous to the territory to have dele gate ho stands well with them.
 But Governor Murphy's acquaint- ance extends not only in the direction of California, but is almost equally great and useful among eastern men of influence. Every voter who wants statehood at the earliest possible mo- ment ought, I think, support MT. Murphy. Then. again I like him per sonally and have known him intimately for the past five years. but the reason I intend to support him is not because of my friendship for him, but on patriotic and business grounds"

 HoLBRooK, Ariz., Nov. 4.-Stewart's majority in this county two years ago was 13. The most reliable estimates to- day place the majority for the terri torial ticket at 100. Others say that the majority will reach 150 and con- servative Democrats concede from 50 to 75. Republicans are claiming the legis- lative ticket on good grounds. The Mormon vote is more equally divided than it has ever been before.

SpeclaI to THE REPUBLICAN.
 FLAGSTAFF, Nov. 4.-Committees of both parties agree that the territorial ticket will receive majority, the only question upon which they are divided being the size of it. It will no doubt fall short of Stewards phenomenal ma jority two years ago, and from the best information at hand it will be not far from 125. I believe that the Repub- licsn legislative ticket will be elected. The result here will be due in part to falling off in the sheep industry. In this respect the tariff enters into the local campaign.

 county will probably give small rna- jority for the Democratic territorial ticket, but there will be loss com- pared with Smiths majority of two years ago of from 250 to 300. No re- liable estimate can be given in the cases of either the legislative or county tickets. Early in the campaign the Populist movement here favored Re publican victory, but the party has collapsed and it's members have settled back to their former parties, Demo- crats are claiming the county by 100. Repu blicans honestly concede nothing.

 KINGMAN, Nov. All parties con- cede that the result in this county, both as to the territorial and legislative tickets, is extremely doubtful. No sat- isfactory canvass has been made by either committee. The doubt lies not only in the equality of strength be- tween he old parties, but the resnlt is hopeless complicated by the Populists who are claiming the county for O'Neill.

 TOMBSTONE, Nov. 4.-This county will give majority for the Republican ter ritorial ticket of from 100 to 150 The legislative ticket will also be elected but it is impossible to form an estimate of the result as to the county ticket. The mining vote is almost solidly Republi- can, though there will be a small Populist vote.

Special to THE REPUBLICAN.
 TUCsoN. Nov 4.-Pima is all right for Murphy and Doran by majority rang ing from 100 to 150, though the Demo- cratic committee claim that they will carry the county. The legislative ticket will probably be mixed, as will the county ticket. The principal fight, in fact, is being made on the county ticket, but it is safe to count Pima in the Repu publican column with the figures given above.

 Judge Webster Street has just closed successful campaign in Graham coun- ty for the Republican territorial ticket. He accepted the task at an expense of valuable time, but the call of his party was recognized by him as it is by all good Republicans. Glowing reports of his success came from the scene of his late labors and it is said that the Re- publican triumph there will be due in great part to his eloquence and skill ful presentation of the claims of Re- publicanism.
