through organization. Let the democrats organize, let each voter put his shoulder to the wheel, wake from this Rip Van Wrinkle trance and buckle on your armor. This advice applies especially to Apache county democrats. Bear in mind that the enemy are never idle, they are at worKvat the present moment, and diligently predicting republi- can triumphs for November, 1896. then why not adopt their tatics2 Work, work hard and unceasingly, never overlook an opportunity to do some act, or speak some words for the benefit and behoof of the party, we have nothing to grieve over, our record is spotless, our standard bearers are honest and able, our principles are time, honor ed and revered, when honestly in- terpreted. Therefore. with just little work, little unanimity of purpose displayed by every demo- crat here in Apache county, these predictions our republican neigh bers are indulging in relative to their victory in 1896, may result quite the reverse. But work, and work .unceasingly, in unity lies strength.

THE election in the east and the consequent republican victories
 point a grave political lesson to all democrats. Not many years ago, the democratic party was supreme throughout the length and breadth of the United States. Of late years, where is that supremacy? and what are the causes that have destroyed it? Our principles (writing as a democrat) have not deteriorated, ourtheory has undergone no change, The mismanagement attributed to the party in national affairs cannot be taken seriously by any reasons- ble person. Democratic mistakes in government have been no more apparent or serious than republi- can mistakes. Then why is it that the republican party triumphs? ? There must be some cause other than principles; it cannot be that republican principles and theories are in advance of the old Jefferson ian; then how do we account for this falling away? Can it be that our organization is defective? that the democratic party is deficient in unanininity; that an occasional success satisfies them. There can be no doubt but these imperfections in our political organization are the causes principally at fault. We must admit that our opponents in point of organized effort, are vastly
 our superiors. Why this should be the writer cannot state. Both par ties are composed Hike people, the
 only difference being the differ ence in opinion," so we can only at tribute our indifference and lack of success to apathy. We need to be
 electrified, we need unity, and we
 can only attain these virtues

ANENT THE VICTORY.

The elections of 1895 have re- suited in complete series of repub- iican triumphs. We thought the re suit would be much different, not that we looked for democratic vic tory in all of the 13 states, but we confidently believed the result from many of them would show a falling off in republican majorities. Our calculations in this respect, are fulfilled in one case at least, New York, the republicans having lost largely in their immense majority for Gov. Morton, of last year, also Tammany Hall candidates for coun- ty officers and judges, have nearly all been elected by pluralties of from 1S,OO0 to 25,000.
 Out of seven states balloting for Governors, one was successful in electing a democrat, viz: Missis- eippi. In Massachusetts Green halge, republican, was reelected governor, but on Q decreased plur- ality from 1894, showing an in creased democrative vote over that year.
 Maryland elects Lowndes, repub- lican. This can only be attributa- ble to Gormon and his ticket.
 Altogether it was clean republi- can victory all along the line, with hardly ray of light to warm the troubled hearts of the democratic legion. However, there can be noth- ing portentious about it, simply one of those unaccountable demonstra- tions. withoutlogic or consequences, just a happening, and about the on- ly effect it will have upon the de- mocracy, will be to unite them more strongly. In 1891 the republicans had just such a triumph, sweeping everything by unprecedented ma jorities. yet, ia 1892, one year later, all this was evened up, and still left the democrats far ahead. So with this record before us we have no reasons to cry pecavy. The repub- lican party is still a long way from the national management.

Thanksgiving Proclamation. TERRITORY OF ARIZONA,
 EXECUTIVE OFFICE,
PHOENIX, ARIz., Nov. ', 1895.

PHGNIx. ARIz., Nov. 7, 1895. ] During the past year our people and the Territory have been steadily advanc- ing in material, educational, moral and religious development, which tells for the happiness of the people and permanet prosperity. The desert places are be- ing reclaimed; bounteous rains have given abundance of pastures to our herds; the mines are yielding their | treasure. The husbandman reioices in the generous product of the farm; the merchant, mechanic and all classes of toilers enjoy 8 renewal of trade, which es- tablishes confident hope for the future. Our health restoring and health preserv- ing cline has insured us against epidem- ic, pestilence and many forms of disease. All the factors of civilization are planted and experiencing substantial growth These conditions should invoke a spirit of gratitude, thanksgiving and praise to the Giver of so much good. Mindful of the principles the Pilgaim father planted on our shores, and the time honored custom of more than a cen tury, and in conformity with the pro- clamation of Grover Cleveland, Presi- dent of the United States, I, Louis c. Hughes, Governor of the Territory of Arizona, do hereby appoint Thursday, November 18th, A. D. 1895. A DAY OF THANKSGIVING, GRATI- TUDE AND PRAISE. recommend all public business be suspended on that day that we assem- ble in our usual places of worship and re- turn thanks to God for His loving kind ness and invoke continuance of Divine favor.
 May the faith and traditions of our fathers be rekindled and transplanted in this new region (our adopted home) and civil and religious liberty, moI al and material prosperity, enlightened and free government be vouchsafed to us for ever
 In testimony whereof, I have hereun- to set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the Territory to be affixed.

Only two weeks remain during which it will be possible to take ad- vantage ofour exceptional subscrip. ton offer. The past month has seen many copies of our handsome Ed ucational Series of Worlds Fair Views, become valued possessions in the homes this paper reaches. Mono have failed to fully appreci- ate the work and to express them selves in terms of enthusiastic com mendation regarding 1t. New sub- scribers and old subscribers who have renewed for one year, already have it. still many desire an extra copy to send to some distant friend, in which case it's only necessary to secure one new annual subscription to obtain the book, which is sure to prove valued possession in the hands of any one to whom it may be presented. All should remember that the offer holds good through next week only. On receipt of a years subscription the work will be sent free and fully prepaid.

MUST HAVE STATEHOOD.
Opinions of An ArizOnian in the East.

Max, writing from Chicago, un. der date of October 22, has much to say of the effect of Gov. Hughes message on Arizona. We quote the following excrept:
 One of the best articles which has appeared in your columns late- ly was Gov. Hughes annual report to the secretary of the interior. It is a clear cut presentation of the numerous developed and undevel- oped resources of your wonderful country. In my opinion it is the very best advertiser for your diff ferent commercial bodies to distrib- ute throughout the East. There is one feature of the report I wish to draw particular attention to, and that is the absence of bloom elo- quence." The word boom is sy- anonymous with the loss of many 3 hard earned dollar and of bitter ex- perience to many as a result of a trip through that southwestern country during boom times. To mention the word to those people will set them raving in an instant, it is almost equal to the founting of a red flag before Mexican bull. I have conyersed with few lately and have presented them with Gov. Hughes facts when they became too bitter, and in almost all cases the dose had a soothing effect on them as we'll as being a surprise at the transformation taking place in that heretofore arid land. The governors report will set more people to thinking and send a larger number to Arizona than 1000 wagon loads of gilt edge

CAMP AT HoLBRooK, Nov. 4.

|
 Agreeable to promise, I will en- deavor to note few items that may be of interest to your readers. We are progressing with construc- ton of a bridge (across the Little Colorado river at this point, as we'll as could reasonably be expect ed. We hope to have it in readi- ness for the use of the travelling public before the advent of the next spring floods.
 Considerable freight is being ship ped to Ft. Apache and Keams Can yon, and the freighters report the condition of roads, water and grass, as being favorable for their avoca- ton.
 A freighter's union was formed here last winter, which resulted in raising the price per 100 lbs, (from Holbrook to Ft. Apache), from 79 cents to $1.00
 A vast amount of traffic is now being done on the A. & P. k. R., and large quantities of coal pass westward every day. The fast train passes regularly on time, westward each evening; stopping here just one minute to change mail, and during the midnight hours, the deep rumble, and the shaking of this portion of Terra Firma, informs the listner, that another streak is being cut through the atmosphere in an eastern direction.
 Our farmers met with two very heavy reverses the past season, which tended to discourage some of our more transient citizens to such an extent that they have turn ed their backs on us, and departed to more congenial climes.
 The first of these reverses was in the form ot 8 destructive hail storm, just as our grain was partially in the shock, and some still standing. The estimated loss to Snowflake alone was $5,000.
 The second reverse was general through the country; I refer to the killing frost, Sept. 21st. By this, Snowflake lost $2,0OO in hay alone, besider other losses in proportion. These disasters do not materially affect the permanent settler, but has caused @ decline in the price of real estate, which has been entirely too high the past few years, to be anywhere near proportionate with other commodities.
 The soaking rains that have vis- ited us this fall, will no doubt be of great benefit to the farmers and stock raise.s, and. all things con sidered, the outlook for Northern Arizona was never so good as at the present time. A. F.
