THoUGH they believed themselves
to be invincible, the Republicans
cannot safely take upon their shoul-
ders the heavy burden which a
candidate with Mr.. McKinley's S
very Objectionable record on the

organization of the business senti-

against the selection of the Ohio

REV. Hermans Of the Scandina-
Wan Methodist Church of Salt Lake
city who is suspected of ontraging
and numbering Henrietta Clousen
and Annie Samuelen, and mutilat
ing and cremating the bodies in the
church furnace, is under strong
suspicion of numbering three wives.
He has been married three times
and each of his wives have died
very suddenly and under suspicious
circumstances. If these crimes are
fastened on Hermans the crimes OF
Durrant and Holmes will sink into
insignifcance. From recent dis
coveries there seems to be little
doubt in the minds of the authors
ties at Salt Lake as to the guilt Of
Hermans so far as the murder of
Miss Clausen and Miss Samuelsen
goes.

If man wished to commit a
murder in Grant county and
wanted to do it in such manner
as to be convicted of 1t by q Grant
county jury he would have to
consult lawyer as to the exact
mode of procedure necessary to be
followed to accomplish this object,
and we doubt if any Grant county
lawyer can advise client so he
can kill man and be convicted of
murder by a Grant county jury.
The only man who has been
punished for murder in this county
in recent years took no chances
with a jury but plead guilty, and
by bringing strong influence to
bear on Judge Henderson, sue
ceeded in getting hung. 1t was a

THE WATER SUPPLY.

The time of scarcity of water
has arrived again and we may
soon expect to see water suits com
mence, but unless some concerted
action is taken it will result the
same as it did when the Union
canal instituted suit against the
Montezuma and San Jose canals.
If the support that might have been
expected from other canals had
been given this company the water
question would have been settled
and the respective rights Of the
canals established ere this. But
the support was not given and after
the Union canal company had spent
more than $500 the case was dis
missed. We find the same condi-
ton confronting us to-day as did
three years ago, when that suit
was instituted, the upper canals
with plenty of water and the lower
ones with about one half an irrigat-
ing stream. This monopolizlng
Of water is not right and should
not be tolerated by those who sur
fer from it. The water should be
distributed so that all rights would
be respected. There is sufficient
water in the river to supply every
farm in the vslley with the neces-
sary amount. Enough water is
taken from the river between the
Montezuma canal and the Brown
ditch to supply the valley from
Pima to the Brown ranch if
properly handled, and to substan-
tiate this we submit the following
figure, on the subject, the result of
measurements made on May 2Sth
by County Surveyor Logan, E. d.

FREE SILVER THE WATCHWORD.

The GUARDIAN in its salutation
when it made is first appearance
on the 9th Of March 1895, among
other things touching its policy,
said; GAS it now reveres the well
fare of the people that surround it,
so does it now raise aloft the stand
ard: Statehood for Arizona and
Free Coinage Of Silver for all the
people. That standard it will
never lower; it is the people S
cause; nor will its battle cease un-
til it sees the battle won, and wit
nesSes the restoration of the Demo
cratic Dollar Of the Fathers, the
coin of the common people, which
for over 80 years of our national
life, blessed alike the hand that
gave and the hand that received,
when the ring of Silver was music to
the ear of debtor and crditor alike.
The cause of Silver is the cause of
every toller in our land, whether
he be farmer, miner, mechanic
or a merchant. 1t means freedom,
f.'om the clutches and avarice Of
the East,-no master and no slave.
This the GUARDIAN hopes to see.
This it will labor for. 1t believes
that the cause of Statehood is the
cause of Silver. The admission
of Arizona means other voices IN
the councils of legislation where
the voice of Silver asks hearing
and the joint advocacy of State
hood and the Free Coinage of Sill
yer will be the constant policy of
the GUARDIAN. Standing boldly
in front of all other issues these
are the questions of the hour.
Like Bancho's ghost they will not
down.
GAS the needle Of the compass
pointing constantly to the pole,
guides the storm-beaten mariner
over mountainous seas amid the
raging Of the winds, so will the
interests of the toilers home, the
cause of the common people be the
GUARDIANS guide amid the strife
of faction and the curse of pelf."
The foregoing words put forth
IN the initial number of the GUAR
DIAN have been observed through
all its existence and it now re.
joices that the approaching Demo
cratic National Convention at
Chicago Will be controlled by the
friends of Silver if they are vigil
ant and remain true to the people.

At Solomonville the MonteZuma
had $50 inches on account Of waste
water from the San Jose, which is
clearly a violation of the law for
no canal has right to run $50
inches Of water to waste at q time
when other canals with rights just
as old as its own have only about
20 incbas. If this injustice cannot
be regulated and the upper canals
have the priority of right the only
hope for the valley Is to unite on
the building of the Enterprise
canal then they will be sure of the
water, but we believe If the proper
course is taken these rights can be
equitably adjusted.

The Board of Aldermen of Boston have

Our city government should hasten to

the channel widened the large vessels
which are built nowadays annot come
here. Portland's prosperity depends in
very large degree upon it's harbor facili-
