SOME TIME.

Last night, my darling as you slept I thought heard you sigh, And to your little crib crept And watched space thereby; And then I stopped and kissed your brow For, oh love you so. You are too young to know it now, But some time you shall know. Some time when in a darkened place, Where others come to weep. Your eyes shall look upon face Calm in eternal sleep. The yoiceless lips, the wrinkled brow, The patient smile shall show You are too young to know it now, But some time you may know. Look backward, then, into the years And see me here tonight See, oh, my darling how my tears Are falling as I write, And feel once more upon your brow The kiss of long ago. You are too young to know it now, But some time you shall know.

HAVING succeeded at last in crawling out from the wreck of the democratic party, under which we were buried on Nov. 9th; and hay ing had time to recover our breath and senses it behooves us to look about and see what consolation we may draw from the trend of affairs. That the democratic candidates were defeated at every ballot box cannot be gainsayed. Nevertheless we still. l..assert that the principles of the great party of Jefferson are still believed in by the. majority of the sovreign people of the UnitedStates, in truth the results of the late elec- ton were punishment for the de- parture by the democrats from these we'll known principles. Itis unfor- tunately a fact that the present ad- ministration is not in thorough ac- cord with the party on the financial question it is also too true that in many localities the democratic can didates, fearful of the mighty in fiuence of the monied element {; failed to take bold stand for the vi. tai principles oftheir party, anditis still further known, that the demo- cratic congress did not carry out in it's entirety the outlined policy ot the Chicago convention, in the line of reform of the iniquitous tariff of the republican monopolists, Here without doubt are sufficient grounds for the recent defeat, with out looking farther. While this may seem to the minimizing to be an arraignment of our own party, it is upon these very same facts that we base & bright hope for the fu- ture. The democratic leaders ad- monished by defeat, united by re- verses, and animated by diversity, will return to their broad humani- tartan principles of Jefferson. On that platform a candidate who com mands the respect of the common people; with sincerity for his watchward. and with manly bravery in advocacy of those principles, will lead the party to victory in the presidential campaign of 1896. He will do this, because the democratic party with all it's failings and short comings, is still the party of the people, the champion of the great middle classes against republican monopoly and corporate wealth.

No Use for Sore Heads.
 The man who says that he will bolt the Democratic party if it fails to praise his particular views upon some particular issue is no more worthy the name of Democrat than the devil is of being mistaken for St. Peter. Fight for your own views with all your might, but if you are overpowered, then take up the cause of the majority in the fight against the common enemy this is the kind of Democrats we need. The party has no use for perpetual grumblers or chronic sore heads. -Gazette-Advertiser.

 Weather is fine this week.
 November 18th, stormed twice.
 Winslow is continually speaking of a building boom, we'll we have one of our own, at least think that is what they would call it. One frame building has recently been erected, A. & B. Schuster are build ing large addition to their store, and another building is to start soon. Keep the ball rolling, we are glad to see it.
 w. J. Flake, one of the oldest residents of Navajo county, was in town today (13th). Mr. Flake owns and still resides in the house in which the first term of court in Apache county was held.
 Invitations for the grand ball at the opening of the round house at Winslow, Thursday Noy. 14th, have been received by many of our citi- zens.
 Holbrook was we'll represented at the Winslow ball. Wingate band music, hall large, floor in very good shape, and all report having had an excellent time.
 C.S. Ford is back from the Yuma Go. mining country, and reports prospects fine and the country booming, will return soon.
 It is reported here that, the Hon. A. F. Banta is going to manipulate a republican paper at this place. Mir. Banta is here and it is expect ed he will commence operation at once.
 D. K. Udall, of Springerville, came in on the 18th and returned on tho 16th. His many friends were glad to see him down this way. Myron Ellis, an old packer from Ft. Apache, was brought in and had an examination before the Probate Judge, and pronounced insane. He will at once be taken to the asylum at Phoenix by Sheriff Owens.
 It is reported Banta's new paper W i'll be republican in it's politics but old friends of Banta's dispute it saying, no DEMOCRAT can afford to run PUB paper. We hope he will come out in his true colors.
 w. H. Clark's building on Front street, is being pushed rapidly, as also the new store of A. & B. Schus ter.

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.

Our health restoring and health preserv- ing cline has insured us against epidem- ic, pestllence and many forms of diseasa. All the factors of civilization are planted and experiencing substantial growth These conditions should invoke spirit of gratitude, thanksgiving and praise to the Giver of so much good

 Only short time ago discovery yves made in northern Arizona, near Holbrook, that may be of great val ue. The productis Roman cement, and it is found in inexhaustable quantities. Los Angeles parties have already taken some to test it, and it seems to be alright. For street paving and similar work 1t IS just tho proper thing, and with the present railroad facilities it could be brought to this city atFa nomi- nal cost. This cement is of an ochre color and is apparently equal to the imported cement.-Gazette.

THEPREs1DENTs GRAnIMER

The president says the United States are"
 This affords key to the whole presidential policy. A man who says "are," in whose mind "are" comes as the proper grammatical form, betrays himself unconscious ly. He can no. be, by nature and education, at any rate, national man. He belongs to the old school that spells nation with a lower-case "n." He follows the Calhoun school, that regards the constitution as a compact. He would have sided with Hayne in the debate with Web ster. He does not think of the "Union, one and inseparable," but as an association of independent sovereigns, held together by no stronger tie than that which bound the States in the old Articles of Con- federation.
 No man who really believes the nation is a nation says the Limited States are." The United States is a nation, with a distinct national policy, distinct destiny, distinct duty. The president, when he speaks, speaks not as the repre- sentative of forty-four separate states, but as the head of one.
 Any old soldier can tell you that. The Cincinnati Commercial.
 Just so. Calhoun said "the Uni ted States are" and all the states men of his school did. And, strange to relate, Alexander Hamilton, Ben iamin Franklin, Robert Morris, Jas. Madison, George Washington and others of that school used the same reasonable grammer. If our es- teemed contemporary will turn to the constitution ofthe United States it will fird the same mistake in that venerable document. Art. 3. Sec. 3, says: Treason against the United States shall consist in levying war against THEM or in adhering to THEIR enemies, giving them aid and comfort" And not in using the language and grammer of the con- stitution.-Sun.
 We desire to call the attention of the people of Apache county to the above article.
 It is a fair sample of republican campaign literature. In the origi- nal edition.of Webster's dictionary. that accomplished Photographer wrote a preface, in which appears the following: "The United States commenced THEIR existence under circumstances wholly novel and un- exampled in the history of nations. " The extremists of the republican party on this occasion as on every other proposition are on one side on the other are the people, the con stitution, every president from Geo. Washington to Grover Cleveland, all statesmen from Jefferson to Tilden, every man of letters from Noah Webster to James Russell Lowell.

May be for business or pleasure, or both but pleasure comes by making business of travelling East over the Santa Fe Route as far as Chicago.
 Thirty miles the shortest line between Missouri river and Chicago; that means quick time and sure connections.
 Track is straight, rock-ballasted, with very few crossings at grade.
 No prettier, cosier or more comforta- bIe trains enter Chicago than those over the Santa Fe. They are vestibuled lim- ited expresses, with latest pattern Pull mans and free chair cars. Meals in dim ing cars served on plan of paying for what is ordered.
