NEXT YEARS CAMPAIGN,

The St. Louis Globe Democrat, Rep. ublican newspaper is one of the opinion that the restoration of pros perity will help the Democrats, and the greater the prosperity the greater the help"
 On it's face this statement contains much of truth. The evidences of "the restoration of prosperity" upon which the Democrats are nov baslng their hopes. are meagre. It would be un- reasonable to suppose, with all fear of dangerous legislation at Washington removed, that business would continue at the low level which it found during two years of panic. The recovery of to- day is but partial, an approximate. return of good times. Times are bet ter, not good. It is therefore reason able to suppose that some of the Demo- crats who voted the Republican ticket last year will return next year to their old and false god, under the mistaken idea that resumption of work, with increased wages over the Democratic basis, means restoration of pros- perity."
 That all of the Democrats who turned in last year to rebuke their party can

THE REPUBLICAN is the only daily newspaper in the territory that ad- vocates the free coinage of silver. The Gazette confesses that it is afraid to take stand for fear it's party might declare on the other side, and the other dailies are either out and out gold bug or silent in the matter. The silver question is the one above all others in which the people of Arizona have & vital interest; and THE REPUBLICAN pro- poses to stand by the people and the white metal. no matter what attitude may be assumed by the other papers of the territory.

Development Work on Many Rich MineS-Fine Properties
 Hardly Known.
From the Prescott Courier.

From the Prescott Courier.
 Jerry Barton was in from Lynx creek yesterday with sack of gold dust which approached the half thousand mark in value. There will be a marked inflow of gold dust to Prescott, now that the summer rains have set in.
 T. W. Boggs is preparing to push development work on the Boggs & Allen mine, Big Bug district, to make show ing for the benefit of New York parties who are expected here soon to look at the property. He recently had lot of ore from the Golden Wreath mine milled. This ore plated $20 per ton. In addition to his numerous gold claims, MT. P. owns sulp lphur mine on the Aqua Fria. He has started the erec- tion of residence above kigh water mark, near his Big Bug properties. Since his arrival in town MT. B. has done some prospecting, and has located some relatives whom he did not dream were in Prescott, among them Mrs. Boggs, the east side milliner, who is his sister-in- law, and her daughter, who IS his niece. Thus, Mrs. Boggs can lay claim to having Hassayampa relatives, 1 if not Hassayamper herself.
 1 The Cherry Greek mine, in which the Bardshar brothers did so much develop ment work and in which they were re- gently overcome by foul air, resulting in the death of Ed. Bardshar, is said to be fine gold property. The brothers had said little about their property, but worked it with right good will all the while and were just about to be re- warded for their long toil, as the mine was in suitable shape for the erection of mill, and arrangements had been made for the placing of 10-stamp mill on the property. In talking with friend some time ago, Ed. Bardshar spoke most hopefully of the encourag. ing outlook ahead of him; that the mine was in good shape. mill would soon be put up to work the ore, when he would feel that he had competency assured and would get married. But, alas. it was destined otherwise, and one of the most worthy young men in Ari zona now lies cold in death while those who loved him are racked with grief, his friends are unutterably sad and strangers respectfully comment over the deplorabie occurrence.

be persuaded to return to the fold next year we do not imagine. The recollec- ton of the questions ble course followed by Congress, of the repeated bond is sues and of the opening of our ports to floods of foreign-made goods-to say nothing of the treasury defcit-will re- main for another year and longer. The payment of interest of money borrowed as tha result of Democratic incapacity will continue for a generation yet. With all these things, justly chargeable to the Democratic party, we do not imagine for an instant that the voters will be inclined to take their chances with the Democratic party next year.
 At the same time the Repu blicans who sit as delegates in the next Ma tionsl convention of their party will have grave duty to perform. Not on- ly will they have to put up, as the Globe Democrat declares, presidential candidate representing the "best ideas of the party, but they will have to select a man who will stand upon a platform which will meet with the ap- proval of the masses instead of the classes who dominate Wall Street and who have heretofore pretty thoroughly dictated the platforms and policies of both parties.
