Arizona republican., 1896-01-19

Mr. Cleveland has Informally" an- nounced that he will decline nomir1a- tion for third term if the Democratic convention shall offer it to him, but at the same time he says to the Demo- crats, q want you to tender it to me, just to show you how neatly can hand it back" But the Democrats haven't got their faith quite up to the point of trusting him with it. They say 'If we were dead sure the hand would be played clear through, it would be a magnificent game, and would send the old man to private life in a blaze of glory, but suppose we should deal him the nomination and he should conclude to stand, then we'd have to pass out, in a blaze of birthstone"

It is well that the farmers have taken up the question of the pecula- tions of the board of supervisors as charged by the grand jury. The bur- dens of the farmer are already heavy enough without being taxed to support dishonest and eXtravagant officials. If half the charges made by the grand jury are true every man implicated should be driven from the court house. It is evident that some one must take this matter in hand and see that it is vigorously prosecuted and we know of CTS association. Carry the good work to the end

misrepresenting his course as speaker of the Fifty-fodrth house they are making an egregious mistake.
 When bitterly partisan journals of the Democracy attack and denounce a Republican leader of Reeds caliber and record they make him all the stronger with the great party in which he holds an honored place. They tried the same tactics during the stormy ses- sions of the F'ifty-first congress, when the indomitable Maine statesman was firmly upholding the constitutional right of the majority to rule. The re- suit was the complete triumph of the fundamental principle for which Reed was contending and marked increase of the esteem in which patriotic Amer jeans held him.
 The Thomas B. Reed of 1896 is big ger, broader and more experienced man than Mr. Thomas B. Reed of 1890. He has remained constantly in the forefront of political battles. As the leader of the Republican minority in two successive congresses he has won fresh laurels and acquired a knowledge of parliamentary procedure and na- tional problems which is unrivalled. Now when he holds the speaker ship in a Republican house and maps out constructive measures of public policy, he has no reason to fear the 'factious attacks of puny critics.
 The assailants of Reed are so far be- meath him in ability and patriotism that their performances are unworthy of his notice

Solomonville Bulletin: Gen. Royal A. Johnson, of Tucson, is in Santa Fe, New Mexico, as a witness in the trial of J. Addison Peralta Reavis, Baron of Arizona, which was to be. Reavis has been in jail six months. His pretend ed land grant which covered a large part of the best of Arizona, including the Salt River and .Gila valleys, has been declared gross forgery and now he is trying to defend himself against the charge of attempting to defraud the government. Royal A. Johnson had much to do with pulling the mask from this scoundrel and his pretended land grant, and he will no doubt be a valuable witness for the government in the trial

CURRENT COMMENT.

Minneapolis Journal: The Canadian government is taking steps to rearm the militia and strengthen the defenses of Canada generally. The new Lee Milford rifle is to be given to the mili- tia and 12-pounder breech-loaders are to be substituted for the nine-pounder muzzle-loaders now held by the field batteries. The Canadians are, to some extent, feeling warlike; but in case of war American troops would soon have a cake walk through the whole domin- ion.
 Minneapolis Journal: Andrew Jask- son is still the biggest man in the Dem ocratic party-even if he is dead.
 *x
 New York Press: In order to strengthen the principle of protection to American industries it was only necessary to remove that protection for a short time.
 American Economist: Secretary Carlisle's annual report last month stated that there was no deficiency of revenue. Yet the statement issued by the treasury department, up to the end of last year, shows a deficit of $15, 5,327, 733 for the half year. What are we to believe?
 Denver Times: The battleship Ken lucky, contrary to custom, will be bap- tized with whisky. She will not take we'll to water.
 Denver Times: Colorado has 45,00,- 900 acres of irrigable land and over 450,000 inhabitants. That is 100 acres to an individual. Let us have more immigration.

PHOENIX, Jan. 18, 1850.
 The fifth session of the National IT. rigation congress will be held in Phoe- nix early in December, 1896. That timely action may be taken to insure the proper reception of the delegates and visitors and in issuance of the proper advertising matter. A public meeting of the citizens of Phoenix is hereby called for o'clock Monday evening, February 3, at the city hall, to take such steps as such meeting may deem proper toward the organiza- tion of a local committee of arrange ments and administration.

Tomorrow the subcommittee of the National Republican committee will meet the St. Louis local committee in that city and complete arrangements for holding the big convention. The local people must give assurance that there will be no packing of the conven- tion in the interests of any particular candidate. That is the sort of thing that killed Chicago as a convention city

ENDEAVORERs IN POLITICS.

The Society of Christian Endeavor has asked advice of the governors of several states as to what that great or ganization should do along the lines of Christian citizenship. The answers received to most of the inquiries were that the Endeavorers should vote one party ticket or the other, according to the personal views of the governors giving the advice Some of the gov ernors urge the Endeavorers to go into practical politics.
 While the influence of the Endeavor- CTS as individuals would undoubtedly be great, in political matters, it is doubtful whether, as an organization, they could hold together in political life. The attempt to wield this organi- zation as a political machine at first would lead to various "dickers" among the politicians and finally to a loss of prestige of the society. Persons hold ing political opinions, although they might be members of the society, would not surrender them to fulfill a deal made by the politicians, who would surely creep into the Christian EndeaVor society.
 Many members of that organization hold radically different views in poli- tics. They would oppose mixing in political life as an organization and the society would soon lose in influence. At the same time, there are certain political questions upon which all En- deavorers and all other good citizens can agree. There ought to be no diff culty in each one selecting for himself what ticket he should vote and what principles he should support Advice of governors will not clear the situation for the Endeavorers.
 The Endeavorers as individuals should take an active interest in the primaries, as it is there that the un- desirable work of the practical poli- tician' is often done Good nomina- tions would ensure good election. Our politics are exactly what the people make them. The standard of politics must, necessarily, be the standard set at the primaries, and therefore what the people wish. The people of com munity are responsible for the politics of that community. Politicians are timid, almost as timid as is capital, and when the mass of the people call for candidates of a higher or lower class the politicians quickly respond. The so-called bosses of politics must suit the voters of the community; other wise the "bosses" would be over thrown. Manipulations of practical politics" cannot continue unless the people wish these tactics. Each Christian Endeavorer can do a great deal toward giving his fellows higher standard of political life. As an or ganization its political influence would not be lasting.

A WARL|KE ACTIVITY
The improvements at Fort Monroe Are
Being Pushed Rapidly Forward.
MOUNTING BIG CANNON BEHIND WORKS
The Ten-fnch Disappearing Battery
is BeinE MOunied Rehind the Big
COncrcte EmplnccIncnts and I'm
projected Practice MOrtnrs on the
Hencll Arc BeInr Removed.

Fortress Monroe is at present q scene
of the greatest activity and the rushing
forward of all sorts of improvements at
the old post is generally thought to be
The result of the disturbing war rumors
now anoat.
Whatever the cause the work is GER
tainly being pushed The new disap-
pearing battery of three big l0-inch
rifles is beingrapidly installed behind the
recently constructed concrete emplace
ments, of which there are two, each
thirty feet high and seventy-fre feet
thick.
The unprotected mortars on the beach,
which have been used for practice, are
being removed, and will be remounted
behind the works. This is regarded as,
perhaps, the most significant feature at
tending the work, except perhaps the
absence of Colonel Frank. commandant
Of the post, who is In Washington in
consultation with the Secretary OF War.
Officers are extremely reticent and de-
cline To express their opinions as to
the significance of this activity. They
also positively refuse to give any in
formation regarding the sub-mar!r
torpedo battery across the Virginia
Capes. for which plans were drawn some
time since.
The appropriation having just been
made available may account for the
unusual rush at the fort but in con-
nection with the sensational war rumors
1t is regarded as significant.
