exception the most complete operative
organization ever gotten together. Not

a contract was signed. At the head OF
the company is Nine. Marie Tavary. a
star of the first magnitude. Possessed
of a charming personality, her marvel-
lous voice has charmed music lovers the
world over. AS al actress she is as
versatile es she is clever. Nine. Thea
Dorre is a cantatrice with meZzo So
prano voice of peculiar charm. Her
acting is dramatic and IN Carmen" she
appears to especial advantage. Nine.

10 some of the heavier operas. The tenor
OF the company is Chavalier Albert L..
Guile. For years be was the primo
singer at Portugal's court, and was

favorite tenor robusto. Max Eugene,
who makes his American debut, is an
Englishman. A grand orchastra OF
nearly thirty musicians and b chorus Of
thirty five makes up company that the

In a labored article in O democratic
paper attempting to show that the re
publican party in congress is the enemy
of free coinage, and the democratic
party is a friend of the measure, nothing
is said Of the fact that q democratic
president and congress repealed the
last prop to silver. A discreet silence is
also maintained concerning the fact that
the president recommended tie retire
ment Of the non-interest bearing green
backs, and the issuance of interest bear
ing bonds in their place. But it is not
to be expected that the democrats would
be SO ingenious as to cocdemn them
selves.

JUDGING from the Phoenix papers,
and communications therein, it is sppar-
ent that the political affairs of M8ricopa
county are in q bad fix. Accusations
are made that political ling has been
and is loosing the county treasury, and
loud calls are being made for the forma-
tion of good government clubs TO
straighten out matters. 1t is to be re-
marked that this condition Of affairs il
Maricopa county is the direct result of
the same causes that brought about a
like RESULT in other badly governed COM
munities-a blind and unressonlng ad-
herence to one party through long
course Of years. Such political action
results in schemers and corrupt men
obtaining Office and control, and when
it is too late the people wake up to the
disagreeable fact that they have been
robbed. and lay the blame on verybody

AFTER spirited contest Chicago sue
ceeded 10 getting the democratic nation
al convention, and the date was finally
set for July q. This late date is out OF
the usual manner of procedure in such
cases, it having been the usual custom
for the party being in power to hold its
national convention first. But the de-
mocrats realize that although in power
they are in the minority and not il very
good odor with the majority of the
American people, and therefore have
set late date for the convention in the
hope that they may be able to take ad-
vantage OF some mistake made by the
republicans. But 1t is useless for them
to make any such calculations.

SOME people are disposed to jump on
Delegate Murphy because OF his speech
before the committee on territories in
advocacy of the statehood bill, claiming
that be has misrepresented Arizona and
broken pledges made during the last
campaign. A careful reading Of MIR.
Murphy's speech does not bear out such
conclusion. And moreover, Mr..
Murphy Is evidently endesvoring to
carry out one of the pledges he made
during his canvas of the territory-to
use bis best efforts to procure the adm;s-
sion of Arizona RS state. Mr.. Murphy
has been in Washington now about two
months, and it is to be presumed that
during that time be has gagged the
prevailing sentiment and is pursuing
the course that will, IN his Judgment,
be most likely to bring about the desired
result. II a person wants faver it is
surely not good policy to needlessly
offend the people who have the power
to grant the favor desired. Almost any
stratagem is considered legitimate in the
game of politics. Arizona wants state
hood, and wants it bad. and if Mr.. Muir
ply can succeed in his efforts, 10 matter
by what means, he will be praised in
stead. Let US get in fret. We Will

In conversation with gentleman re

now resident of Tucson, the CITIZEN
learns that the business men of Tucson

condition than the California boom city.
The gentleman quoted, who is in con-
dition TO know whereof he speaks, says
the opposition in business is so keen
that business houses having $4,000 TO
5000 invested ere glad if at the end
OF the month it can be shown that ex-
penses have been made. Another point
is that the merchants of Tucson do not
have to apply to the banks for acconmo-
6ation. On the contrary, the majority
Of them carry deposits in our local
banks. This is gratifying, showing that
the business interests of our city ere on
a solid foundation, that our people, as a
rule, are free from the incum ORANGES OF
mortgages, that fhe city is not IN need
of factItious boom methods to keep
afoat, and that old Tucson is marching
steadily forward on the safe and per

The CITIZEN is in receipt of numerous
communications from eastern CONNER
cial organizations soliciting cooperation
in an efTorU TO make a charge in the
postal laws. The changes desired are
the reduction OF letter postage to one
cent aud the merging of the second,
third and fourth classes into one class
at the uniform rate of eight cents Per
pound. One part of the proposed change
is all right, that of reducing letter post
age, and would doubtless prove very
agreeable to the gentlemen composing
these commercial organization. But
when they attempt to make up this re-
duction of the postal revenues by raising
newspaper postage eight hundred per
cent, the 1isinterestedDess Of their
Iblic spirit is open to criticism. Nsws-
papers can hardly be expected to en-
Enthusiastically support measure that
would so largely increase one important
item Of their expenditure. Such an in
crease would add burden to the bust
ness of newspaper publishing that would
shut out every newspaper in the United
States from the mails. These gentleuea
have not given the matter proper consi-
deraiion, else they would not have made
such ridiculous proposition.

The gold bug press of the eastern
states is getting upon its hind legs and
yelling themselves red in tAe face, &C
cusing the free silver men in the senate
with blocking what they term Is need-
ful legislation, which 10 their case
means authority for the issuance of
more bonds. But never q word does the
gold bug press utter about the practi-
cal notification of law by the president
and secretary of the treasury. Yhis is
all right. btcause it plays into the hands
of the gold ring. But when men who
are supposed to be possessed of reason
able intelligence, because of the position
they occupy as United States senators,
attempt TO accomplish something in the
interest of the common peopls they inn
mediately become cranks, visionary en-
thusieste and pig headed obstruction
lists. But the silver senators are not go
regarded by western people who sincere
ly hope that they may be able TO OBJ

until something is done for common
every day folks.

IT may sound strange to some that
the United States government should
apply TO Great Britain to protect Amer
