that egotistical individual "- Phenix Gazette. "Ben's brother Frank" will find Dr. Miller to have a supply of tanbark on hand for him if he under takes the tanning act. Prominent democrats from the southern part of the territory have already written to Dr. Miller, warning him to look out for Heney.
 Ex-Speaker Reed put the princi- pal question at issue in this cam paign when be asked: Do we want certainty or uncertainty from now until lS96f" If certainty that the business of the country will not be harassed by further tariff tinkering is wanted the people vii elect re- publican majority in the next house. If more tariff tinkering and more "hard times" the democrats will be kept in control. 1t is a question easily decided, aud politics need not necessarily affect the decision.
 Our contemporary this morning advises its readers 10 vote against the railroad octopus" This advice is rather indefinite as we were not aware of any railroad octopus, being up for office, on any ticket, unlsss it b. that it refers to MT. Herndhn, the democratic candidate for dele gate who is a stockholder in one railroad company and attorney for two railroad corporations. So far as known be is the only candidate who is in the employ of railroad com pany, or who is drawing a salaTY from a railroad corporation, who is an aspirant for office.
 "Having no defense of their miser- able record, the democrats have put up a straw bugaboo in the shape of a mythical A. P. A. society, which has no existence in New Mexico, and proceed to beat their tom toms vigorously to stir up . religious war. hoping to catch votes thereby, 1t is the most contemptible exhibi- ton of devilish demagoguery evei attempted in this territory, and will fall so flat that its originators will be the laughing stock of the country" - Albuquerque Citizen The democrats have been trying this same contemptible piece oi demagoguery in this territory.
 Democratic papers in the southern part of the terntory, do not take the same roseate hue of Oneill'I candidacy as the latter's democratic organ in this city does, They seem to be smart enough to realize that it is their candidate and not the re- publican candidate from whom Bucky will draw what few votes he will get and are accordingly battling against it. 4 recent issue of the the Phenix Gazette says: "Bucky 1 O'Neill stood on a Phenix platform and orated for two hours about the .'baneful influence of foreign cSpi- tai" and at the same time had in his pocket the signature of six lead ing Phenix citizens to a recommen- dation to H. Smith Martin, of En. gland, to purchase the Buckeye canal. Buncomb and balderdash are good in their way, but this verges on the lines of impostor."
 Every vote cast for the republican ticket in Arizona is direct rebuke to the democratic party, for refus- ing to fulfill its pledges in the Chicago platform. By repeating the purchasing clause of the Sher- man act and refusing to pass free coinage bill the democratic majority in congress knocked this last prop from silver. They are just now trying 10 explain however that it was the republicans who demone. tized silver away back in 1873. The act refeored to, as being passed in 1873, demonetizing silver was passed with a unanimous democratic vote A republican senate in 1893 passed free coinage bill but when it vent to the democratic house, that body refused to pass it. And yet demo cratic speech makers are going about the country telling what gooC trends of silver they are. If eveI free coinage is obtained in th' United States it will be through th' republican party which is the party of progress.
 If the T, aple of the territory want | 10 ulA4i III iC1a NAO WAAA AOs AO . nonenty there they will vote fol and send N. O. Murphy. Every man in the territory who knows MT Murphy knows that he has accom- plished more for the territory as { whole than any man in 1t to-day be knows, further, that he is capable of accomplishing more in the future than any man we are likely to send to congress from the fact of his wide acquaintance withcongressmen and influential men of national reputa- ton and his live rustling qualities On he other hand MT. Herndon was a surprising and notable failure even in our little territorial legisla- ture where he should have been a leader and carry whatever he de sired. Mir. Herndou will not re- ceive the supper. of his county be- cause of the fact that he utterly failed 10 secure any thing his con sfituency desir,d when be was a
