It is remarkable how valuable the local paper becomes when the denial of a rumor has to be made. About year ago the Temple Bar Mining Company had articles of incorporation to publish, but in- stead of publishing them in local paper they, through the manipula- tions of a local attorney, were sent to Phenix. The other day the com pany found it necessary to deny the reported sale of the company mines, and, strange to relate, called on the local paper to give their de- nial publicity. To be consistent they should have gone to the Phe- nix papers with their denial.

To compass Teller's defeat Wall street will pour a million dollars into Colorado during the campaign. This is why Wolcott is trying to disrupt the republican party in the state. 1t is as necessary to the sil- yer cause that Teller should be re- turned as that Bryan should be elected. Now is the time when the free silver republicans, democrats, populists and mugwumps must unite in one common cause and send Teller back to Washington.

CAMPAIGN FUNDS NEEDED.

In Arizona, where the silver question is the all-absorbing one little is being done to aid the na- tional fight Funds are a necessity 10 carry on a great campaign, and right here we wish to impress the importance of this subject on the liver men of the county and ter ritory. The people of the east are taking a great interest in the fight nov being waged against the mo ey barons,but many are dense- ly ignorant of the question and must needs be enlightened. To secure the necessary literature and stump speakers, hu ndreds of thou sa lds of dollars must be obtain ed. The people of A rizona are vitally interested in the election of B van and Sewall and should contribute lib orally to the cause. The Bocky y NJ ou ntain News, the great silver advocate of the Rocky Mountain reg Jon, will receive contributions. Send them in at once.
