WHAT d ruction our democratic friends do have with their democratic governor. But there k one thing OF which they arc all agreed, and that is that the great and glorious Grover Cleveland is the greatest and wisest statesman America ever saw since the days of Washington that is all oi them who hold office will tell you so; and they really seem to believe it. Governor Hughes says so. Consu Roberts says sO sam Webb thinks so. And when the picture Of Grover came out on q ster0pticOn slide, the bread and butter brigade nearly tore dowI tho church in which the entertain mcnt was held so yocifcrous was tho applause By the way was it ap. Dlluse for Cleveland which broke tn, crockery at Cazabon's one evening 6 courle of weeks ago. This editoriai hasn't come out at the same place where 1t went in.

THE SONORA ELECTION.

On the twenty-eighth of the present month the qualified electors of Souo- "a win select governor, yice-gover- nor and congress to conduct the af- fairs of that state during the next four years. Practically there is but a single ticket in the field, and the gen. tlemen presented will be elected un- animously. The candidates named are c. Ramon Corral for rgovernor, and Doctor Prisciliano Figueroa for vice governor
 Sehor Corral is the present very able and capable secretary of the state Of Scnora, and Doctor Figueroa is wide ly known as the progressive and pop ular head of the municipality of Guaymas. Bnth these gentlemen are chosen leaders in that great party which has written the brightest and most enduring pages in Mexican his tory. It is the party of progress. edu- cation. civilization. IL found Mexico plunged in the depths of superstition ignorance and poverty, and has already raised that favored land to a proud eminence on the heights of prosperity and advancement, with an eye ever directed and energies ever excrted toward climbing to the loft jest pinnacle of twentieth century civ yilization.
 Messrs Corral and Figueroa are both ardent believers in public education and progress. Under their efforts in the past there has been great advance ment in education and material pro greSs. The influence of Senor Corral is felt all over Sonora, and in Quay mas Doctor Flgueroa has created a public school system in which the peo- pie of that thriving metropolis take a just and exceeding pride. In contin- uing the destinies of their state in hands so capable the people of sonora are fittingly crowning the great work heretofore so well planned and sOabll executed by the former governor, Gen. eral Luis Torres, and the present very capable and effective chief executive, Don Schor Rafael Ysabal

lT IS passing strange how some things are accomplished. A man can live in Tucson many long weary months without taking an excursion anywhere. Cannot spare the time or money. Elect him to the legislature and he will go to Phoenix; draw a sala- ry of four dollars per day for sixty days. pay five dollars day for board and liquid trimmings, and yet save enough money to pay for pleasure excursion to San Francisco.

CLEVELAND AND THE MONROE DOC
 TRSSE.

was never asScnted to by European nations, and consequently is of no binding force or effect. Therefore Venezuela must submit to Great Brit aims exactions and aggressions-the United States can do nothing to help her.
 It is really to be hoped that Mir. Cleveland has been misquoted in the matter. It may all be true as stated that European nations never accept ed the doctrine; but when promulgat- cd it was the voice of American senti- ment, and the sentiment Is still as strong aS.ever. All true, patriotic Americans consider the Monroe doc Urine as very binding, and they arc prepared and willing to go any length to make it SO.
 Every schoolboy can state the Mon roe doctrine. It is that the people of America shall be free to work out their own development under their own institutions, conducted by rulers of their own chpice, and that Ameri- ca has ceased to be colonizing ground for European mGnarchies. From the oldest aud strongest American repub- lie the enunciation of this doctrine was notice to the world that the rights of the weaker republics would be backed by this against aggression from the other side of the water Its rumulgation sent thrill through overs Of liberty everywhere, and it vaS taken as implying and meaning lll which iS here asserted. And the lmcrican people meant and still mean .ccrv word of lt, and are willing to fight f'ri'
 Whether the nations of Europe as- sented to the doctrine or not, cuts no figure in the case. They had a regard for it's tcnets s0 wholesome that when Secretary Seward, in 1865, intimated to Louis Napoleon tha the presence of French troops in Mexico could not be tolerated, and the intimation was blcked by Sheridan and his veteran regions, tue French troops wcrcq quick ly withdrawn, and the Brumagcm cm- pre of Maximillian fell With q loud crash.
 IL was not to be expected that Euro pean nations would assent to the Mon
 oe doctrine; but with chief execu- tive in the chair at Washington deter nined to execute 1t they would be gcry careful to give it the right oi way.
 The trouble with Mr. Cleveland i- that he doesn't think his country i, worth lighting for If he did he would have shouldered musket and zone to the front in lsBl-5. Monroe vas a revolutionary soldier, and when he set mp the great doctrine which bears ltis name hc was giving utter
 nce tp convictions which had been hurned into his very fibre by the fire md smoke of battle But little did he care whether European nations as- sented to the doctrine or not. It was tue dictum Of the American people. md the same spirit which animated the patriots of Valley Forge and Yorktown wasready to enforce it. Is it fora moment to be supposed that any me of the long line of illustrious sol dicrs who have graced the executive chair beginning with Waslingtonand ending with Harrison, including James Monroe, Andrew Jackson, Will liam Henry Harrison, Zachary Taylor Franklin Pierce.

absent Twenty-one new bills were ssa-
troduced and sent TO the printer.
Representative Bussa's bill prohibit
ing certain methodsof gathering oysters
was passed by the house without oppo-
sition. 1t provides thatsit shall be un-
lawful to gather with any tool or I'm
plement whatsoever any oysters from
any natural bed, unless the person so
gathering shall BE- on o. working from
boat in the stream. It provides
further that IL shall be unlawful to use
a common garden rake or any histru-
mant of similar construction or opera
ton. Gathering oysters by hand is not
prohibited. The penalty for violating
the act Is fixed at from 500 TO $500
fine. ore half OF which shah be paid TO
the informant causing the arrest.
A substitute bin by the committee on
corporations other than municipal for
house bill No II. In relation to trustees
OF private corporations. created con-
eiderabla discussion In the house this
afternoon. It provides that majority
OF the trustees of such corporations
may reside outside OF the state. At
present the law provides that major
fly must reside in the state. A motion
was made TO indefinitely postpone the
bill. and the mott6h was supported by
all the Populists and several, Repub-
licans, but defeated. The bill was then
ordered printed.
The house passed a joint memorial
to congress relative to the natugaliza-
ton law introduced by Taylor, A. r. A.
member from Pierce. 1t objects to the
naturalization of minors OF foreign birth
and foreigners who have not resided in
the United States seven years.
The house memorial by LANG relas-
ing to the government securing possess

committee with majority report that
port In It's favor. On motion 1t was IN
definitely postponed. the Populisns vot-
ing to sustain 1t. AT 4.30 the house adj
tourned.
The members seem disposed to get
down TO earnest work. now that the
senatorial contest Is disposed OF. To-
night call was issued for caucus of
the Republican members Of the legis-
lature to discuss matters of legislation
that would be benefited by united ac-
ton. The more important committees
were in session at tbs time, however,
and only a few members attended the
caucus. which in consequence was ad-
Journed without anything being done.
In all probability many bills win be re-
ported back to each house by commit
tees Tomorrow. and a busy day is
promised.
