BRAZILIAN AND REBELLION.
De Mello, the Brazil Rebel.
Forced to Give Up.

Specials from MonteYideo, Buenos
Ayres and Rio De Janeiro tell of the
disastrous ending of the Brazilian re-
bellion.
Montevideo: The rebellion of Adj
miral de Mello against the government
of President Peixoto has completely
collapsed. Admiral de Mello, after
sustaining severe defeat at Rio
Grande City, losing from 400 TO 500
men, succeeded in putting TO sea with
the Republica and transports, and at
tempted to make n landing in the de-
partment of Rocha, Uruguay, intend
ing to surrender his whole force TO the
Uruguayan authorities. But n dis
agreement took place between the
rebel admiral and Gen. Salgado, and
the latter, accompanied by 800 dis
armed, sick and wounded, and almost
starving men, landed upon Uruguayan
territory and rendered their submis-
sion TO the authorities. Admiral de
Mello then sent an offer to surrender
to the Uruguayan authorities if the
latter would guarantee not TO sur
render him to the government Of
Brazil. The Uruguayan officials were
unable TO give this pledge, and conse-
quently Admiral de Mello remained on
board the Republica. That warship
afterwards went to the province of Rio
Grande De Sui, and attempted to make
a landing. But the rebels were driven
back to their boats by the forces of
President Peixoto and the whereabouts
of the Republica is now unknown.
Buenos Ayres: The officials of the
Brazilian legation have received a dis
patch saying that the rebel warship
Aquidaban, formerly the flagship of
Admiral de Mello, has been sunk off
the island of Santa Catharina by the
Brazilian torpedo boats.
The remains of the Brazilian rebel
fleet commanded by Admiral de Mello,
arrived off Buenos Ayres. The rebel
ships, are the Republica, Meteoro, Iris,
Urano and Esperanza. They are in a
very dilapidated condition and the
rebels on board of them are suffering
from sickness, wounds and lack of
proper food supplies. Their temporary
wants were supplied, with the consent
of the brazilian minister, who has re-
ceived advices from Rio dc Janeiro, say
ing that n general amnesty will be
granted TO the insurgent rank and file,
and that the Brazilian government will
pay the quarantine expenses of the
ships if they are surrendered to the
Brazilian minister. Consequently the
Argentine government, with the con.
sent of the rebel leaders, superintendent
the delivery of the five war vessels to
the Brazilian minister. When the men
and ships are in a proper condition
they will rejoin the Brazilian vessels
under government officers and return
to Rio de Janeiro.

SecI etary of State Issues Information Re-
gardinS Appointments, Etc.
The following information regarding
the appointment of census enumerators
and assistants has been sent out by Sec
rotary of State Gardner in response to
requests: The state census is 20 be taken
in June of this year. The law seems to
be very explicit, but as it is not in the
hands of everyone, there is much in
quiry as to its provisions. The inquiries
relate mainly TO the appointment Of
enumerators. and are all answered by
the first section of the census law
which is act rs of 1893. 1t provides:
LIST. That the enumerators and assistants
shall be appointed after the annual township
meeting and on or before the ilrst Monday In
May
%. That they arc to be appointed by town
ship boards in townships ana common councils
In cities.
3D.. That il not appointed before the first Mon
day in May. the appointment Is TO be made by
the governor And
4th That enumCrators are TO be appointed
for each assessment district.
1t is clear from the above,
LIST That appointments made before the an
nual township meeting are Illegal
End. Appointments by any other than town
ship boards In townships and common councils
3rd Appointments after the first Monday in
May can be made by the governor only.
Enumerators and assistants are TO be APP
pointed before the first Monday in May. In
case n sufficient number of assistants are not
appointed before that date. the additional
number required must be appointed by the
governor.
4th Enumerators and assistants are TO be
appointed for each assessment district. II "a
township, city, or a ward is divided into more
than one assessment district each district is TO
have one chief enumerator, and such number OF
assistants as may be necessary to complete the
census within the time prescribed by law.
Neither an incorporated. nor an unincorporated
village, can have an enumerator unless IL con-
stitutes a distinct and entire assessment dis
trict. In other words, where the township
forms one assessment district, there viii be
one chief enumerator for the entire township,
including the villages within such township.
An assistant may be appointed to take the cen
sus OF the village or villages under the super
vision OF the chief enumerator. the chief
cnumerator may take the census of the village
and the assistant the census OF the country.
The division of territory in town
ships may be made by the township
board, and in cities by the common
council, but in case it is not SO made
then it is the duty of the chief enumer-
ator to make such assignment of ter

THE CONSTITUTION for the new state
provides that ''No lottery shall ever be
permitted in this state" That of
course includes policy and other games
of chance and is wise and wholesome
provision. Now if the Legislature will
enact the Texas law relating to
gambling, the Missouri law in relation
to primary and other elections, and the
Nebraska high license law, the new
state of Arizona would be model that
would challenge comparison with the
oldest state in the Union. Arizona has

REFORM THE PRIMARIES.

The following clipped from the Santa
Rosa, (Cal.), Republican is timely:
cit is common and true statement
that the politics of the country is largely
done IN the party caucuses and primary
elections. The Importance of having
these preliminary meetings we'll at
tended and fairly conducted has been
urged vigorously and often.
eat the same time most of the dirty
work in politics continues to be done at
the primaries. In country precincts
few voters attend as rule and two or
three men generally name the delegates
without reference to the will of the m a.
jority. In the towns and cities, if there
is contest, all classes of voters are
likely to be hauled to the polls and to
vote there, regard ess of their party az
filiations.
"There is growing conviction that
there is need of stringent legislation for
the government OF primary elections
Only party men should take part in
them. The men who are independent
of party and who vote an independent
ticket at the polls should not help to
uame the candidates of either party
Voters who are independent from prin.
ciple at the polls do not offer to par
ticipate in party primaries. Such az
vote at elections for pelf usually try to
vote at all party primaries for the same
reason. We should have legislation fol
the punishment of such electors, and
the correct penalty would be to de-
prive them OF the voting privilege alto
gether.
'tThe corruption in primary cleo
tions has reached the point in Sar
Francisco that the Democratic manag
ers there will not let the electors vote
| for delegates to their state convention
Thus the honest Democratic voters al
the metropolis are deprived of any voice
in the selection of their representative:
on the state and district tickets. Il
is question with them as to whether
they will be deprived of their right.
as Democrats by committee in which
there is some responsibility or by
a mob in which there is no respectful bill
ity.
"Certainly there should be legisla
ton that would get the Democratic
party out Of its unfortunate predica
ment and that would give the voters
of all parties full control of their party
affairs. There is urgent call for re
form in primary meetings and eiec

THE EXPERIMENT of woman suffrage in
Colorado will be carefully watched this
tall. If local politics in that state
is lifted from the filth into which
it has fallen, if the best and
truest men are elected to the local
offices and sent 10 the legislature, then
even the opponents of woman suffrage
must admit that the women have done
what the men have utterly failed to do,
and in that event woman suffrage would
be success. If, however, there is no
change, if the same corrupt methods are
pursued, if the moral character of a
man or woman counts for nothing in
his or her election, then nothing is
gained by woman suffrage. The eyes of
the whole country are upon the women

WITH THE admission of Arizona as a
state many territorial habits and Gus
toms must be abolished. The new
state must pass from the frontier to the
broader and higher civilization of older
communities. The next territorial
legislature, and let us hope the last, can
simplify the work OF the first state
legislature by passing needed laws in
this direction.
