choir platform is situated back of the pulpit and handsome velvet curtain partitions the platform from the ros- trum, which is about a foot lower. Entrance to the. choir platform is through a door leading to vestfbule.
 Throughout the church there are 1O6 incandescent lights, the church being lighted entirely by electricity. There are four handsome and costly chan deliers, and overhead lights are ar ranged around the dome. There are three vestibules leading from the en- tranceS.
 In the basement there is the large Sunday school room and six class rooms which open into the large room, making it possible to accommodate a large crowd when a social and enter tainment is given. There is also a room for the librarian and secretary and a cosy little room is set aside for the pastor as study. There is also a room that can be used as dining room on social nights. Opening on the dining room is a kitchen arranged very handily. Adjoining the kitchen is the furnace room which will be used in winter. The entire basement is conveniently arranged and presents a very inviting aspect.
 The church cost $25, ,000 to build and when entirely completed and the fur niture, etc., purchased the cost will run $1O,0O0 more. This money was partly raised by subscription, the larg. est amount being obtained from the sale of the old church ground. Ad joining the church is a lot which k the property of the church and it is the intention to build thereon in thu near future parsonage.

NEW METHODIST CHURCH.
Description of One of the Handsomest
 Churches in the West.

Last Sunday evening for the first time a sermon was preached from EIhe pulpit of the new Methodist church, corner of Second avenue and Monroe street. On that occasion Bishop Foss presided and preached to very large congregation.
 The church, although practically completed, will not be formally dedi- cated for couple of months. The pastor, Rev. Chase, and the members of the church may we'll feel proud, for it is reckoned as being one of the handsomest houses of worship on the coast, and certainly Phoenix may have great pride in possessing such an edi flee. A city is often judged by its churches and if such is the case, we can invite the criticism of the world without fear of the verdict.
 For several months services have been held in the basement of the church, but now that will be used only as a Sunday school and for church en- tertainments.
 The edifice is built of pressed brick and stone. There are three entrances to the edifce; two ill front and one in the rear. The steps leading to the entrances are of stone.
 The interior is a sight most pleasant to behold. The furniture is entirely of oak that blends tremendously with the frescoed walls and stained glass windows. The windows are especially attractive and cost s1,000. The floor has two-foot slope from the rear to the rostrum. The pews are both com fortable and attractive. The pews, like everything else, are of oak and are styled double pews, being divided by cross arms in the center. The seat ing capacity is about 700.
 The choir platform, rostrum and the aisles are covered with body Brussels and it makes a pretty effect in contrast with the general surroundings. The

NORTHERN REPUBLICANS.
A Large Delegation From Prescott and
 Other Points Coming Friday

Hon. Will c. Barnes, secretary of the Republican territorial central commit tee, yesterday evening received tele- gram from Prescott to the effect that an excursion would leave Prescott for Phoenix with 100 Republicans to at tend the address to be delivered by Hon. Thos. Fitch on Friday night after the big parade. The number will be increased by delegations from Jerome, Congress and other way stations.
 If iuhe Republicans of the northern part of the territory are coming such long distance, why shouldn't the Re publicans of Yuma, Casa Grande and other southern points attend and make the occasion a general Republican con- ference?
 Hon. Thos. Fitch, the silver tongued orator, is worth going hundreds of miles Ito see and to hear the soundest logic that falls from human lips.

RICH IN MINERAL.
The Deer Creek Coal Fields Promise
 Wealth to Arizona

Tucson Citizen: Since the passage of the act for the segregation of what is known as the Deer Creek coal felde from the San Carlos Indian reservation that section has for the first time been thoroughly prospected. Coal abounds on this piece of territory in practically unlimited quantities. So numerous are the croppings and discovered veins of coal that few people believe there will be any individual entries by those who were first to go there and locate claims. To enter this land requires cash pay ment Of $5 per acre. One man can only take l60 acres, and 160 acres in this vast area of coal is but speck hence an in. divldual might pay for his coal land and not be able to get in line with com pany having the necessary capital to bring this coal within the reach of market.
 But there are other rich mineral de- posits on this segregation tract that promise to create there one of the most prosperous mining camps in Arizona. Six miles northeast of the coal fields proper there have been 8 number of discoveries marvelously rich in copper and gold.
 Capt. Nicholson of Fort Grant, and several associates, have very promis- ing group which was recently bonded for $150,000. The company taking the bond is an eastern one and is represent ed by Col. Crane, who himself is. inter- ested in valuable gold mines in the yici- nifty of Globe.
 W. J. Parks, of this place, was one of the first to reach the coal fields after ad. mission was granted by congress. He went there last March and has been there continually ever since, with the exception of a week in July. He ar rived home last Monday for visit of g few days, and he confirms the most ia yorable reports that have preceded him from this section. He has located fol himself and boys number of good claims, all bearing copper and gold. Ht
 recently disposed of an interest in ont claim for 100 head of cattle, and this
 will pay him well for his time-but hs
 is expecting someting much better tt
 come to him from hls present holdings !, than cattle; though cattle IS not un desirable in Arizona. MT. Parks ha had a number of assays made from th'
 Rtass TOOIS anu lucy SuOW MI dVcJhS' of 35 per cent copper and from $35 t. $65 in gold, On one claim he tunnellet into the side of the hill, striking th ledge at depth of about 400 feet, wher it was nearly five feet wide. Anothe large vein was encountered by tunne
 at depth of about 150 feet.
 This mineral area is about twelv miles square and MT. Parks thinks tn I day is near when it will become famou F for its production of copper and gold ], There are mum Der of valuable claim besides those owned by Capt. Nicholso
 and MT. Parks.
 These mines can be reached, Mi
 Parks thinks, easiest by railroad start
 ing from the present road at For Thomas and running thence by the hea
 of Goodwin creek and west of Mour
 Trumbull. The distance would be thirt r miles from Thomas. The distance fror San Carlos agency is only twelve milei l but MT. Parks thinks the grade woul
 be too heavy for practical line.

The STANDARD.

A writer In the Globe Democrat tells
''the whole story of the gold standard''
In . few words:
You look back to the beginnings Of your
industry aud marvel ut the changes. The
world advances. Civilization refines.
Commerce requires exact terms and
measures. 1t insists upon certainty,
fixity in the standard of values. 1t must
have something upon which 1t Can de-
pend. 1t has found out that it must de-
pend upon some one thing. That is why
II has veered to the single standard. It
has quit stepping from one standard to
the other. 1t makes Its election. ltvOtes
for gold because Of its great value in
email compass aud because Of the nxity Of
that value. So 1t 10 that one great nation
after another, under the command of its
best intelligence, had come to the gold
standard. 1t Is because they have found
it the cheapest, best and most effective
standard by which to measure all values.
What does q standard mean? What is
its primary Significance? 1t comes from
an old Latin word, meaning something
to turn to. When you are in doubt, you

Machine.

4 Plan to Rave Politicians Talk BY
Machine.
Washington, Aug. The phono-
graph or graphophoue may play an
important part in the coming presi-
dental campaign. Senator Jones
chairman of The national committee,
has been asked to buy or rent GRAPHIC
phones and put them to work for the
Democratic ticket. Such q sugges
ton has. in part. already been acted
upon BY the Republicans. They
have put the phonograph to work in
larger cities, supplying campaign
songs for the amusement and ediica-
ton Of enthusiastic republicans.
The suggestion to Chairman Jones.
however is Of different nature.
It is that himself, candidate Bryan
and other campaigners make ten or
fifteen minute speeches for enroll
ment on the cylinders of the graphic
phone. These will be put on the ma
chimes which will be sent all over the
country. The graphophone itself
would prove interesting in all the
smaller towns, but containing tho
speeches of eminent Democrats It
would be sure to draw large crowds.
The scheme is that Democrats be
cent through the country with these
machines, advertising like q show
when they would be at . certain
place. When they have their audi
snce in good shape they are to put
on thebig brass tubes. and the speech
would be almost the same as il de-
lvered by the man himself.

Phil Arnour's Mexican Dollars.

Phil ArnOur's object lesson with Mex
lean dollars to his wOrkingman is giving
the POpOcrsts and the silver barons much
unexsiness. He is said to have procured
1900 Mexican dollars and is giving them
to his employees ut their bullion valUe-5O
cents, aud will redeem them il they fail
to pass them at their real value. OF
course Americans do not want = coin
about which there is any doubt, and
those employees will probably not be able
to pass those dollars except to . dealer
in bullion. But they will teach American
workingmen q practical lesson. Some
of those wOrkingmen may be free silver
advocates. Becoming possessed Of coin
on which there 10 . government stamp
declaring it to be 100 cents they will un.
doubleday seek to pass 1t for . dollar.
Then they will learn that It requires much
more than the fiat Of the government to
give value to money. 1t will dawn upon
them that the coin must have In it the in.

reason that the Mexican dollar does not
pass in this country is because it is NOT u
legal tender in the United States. That
argument will not answer. It 10 also true
that the American silver dollar is not \
legal tender In Mexico. Yet the
Mexicans prefer the gold protected
American dollar and will gladly part
with two Of theirs for one Of ours.
Theirs is on the free silver coinage basis,
and ours 10 on the gold basis. That tells
the story. The Mexican dollar 10 going
to give the POpocrats much trouble in
this contest. They can advance no argu-
ment, no sophistry, that will wipe out
the fact that when An American silver
dollar comes anywhere in contact with
Mexican money, even in silver ridden
Mexico, it is worth two of those
dollars. All that the silver bar0ns and
the PopOcrats ssk is that our government
shall treat silver precisely as It 10 treated

Is there any argument needed to show
