Not content with the conundrums
to be solved In Harvesting the demo-
cratic donkey and the populistic steer
together, the Pink Paper this week
devotes some two or three columns of
advice to the republicans, as to the
best method Of training. the g. o. p.
elephant. Considering how utterly
Mr.. Wilson failed to even drive his
herd into the free-silver corral at the
late county convention, we may be
thankful for his solicitude, but have
grave doubts as to his ability to ride
in all the three rings of the political
circus In one act, at the same time,
Notwithstanding his known ability to
take back-handed summersaults.

SOMEWHAT PERSONAL.

The Langdon Democrat copies a
few lines from an editorial which ap.
peared in this paper and calls it
''idiocy." 1t then says:
"But as Watdwell runs the Ex-
PRESS and Jud LaMoure runs Ward
we'll and Col. Robinson runs La Moure,
while Robinson is supposed to be in
line with Mckinley, we suppose the
platform of the ExPREss is published
by authority and the ''parity" will be
maintained in that way. Great idea!
Eth farmers?"
Leaving the editors Of the PIONEER
EXPRESS out otthe question, we haye
heard a great deal of criticism by the
democratic press on the other GENTLE
men named, t}this is the first time
that we have known them to be ac-
cused of being responsible for any
thing '.idiotic."
With all due deterence to the young
man who is hired to spread his super
lative brain on the editorial page Of
the Democrat, We would take the
liberty to suggest, that to throw dirt
and call names, proves the want Of
real argument as vel: Ps lack Of COM
mon courtesy.
Whenever Messrs. LaMoure, Robin
son and Mckinley ID become joint
editors of the P1oNEER EXPRESS, the
Democrat or anybody else will not
need to ''suppose" the fact. The pro-
prietors of this papet will take care
that it is. widely advertised. We
think we know good thing when we
see it.

The St. Thomas Times entered its
fifteenth year last week, and now,
since its editor has married and set.
tied down, and so many journalistic
years have rolled over his head, it is
time to consider him as graduated
from the 'kid" class of journalists.
The Times seems to fill the field IN it's
locality to the satisfaction of its pat
rons, and more than this, is not done
by anybody. May the Times and the
PIONEER EXPRESS be contemporaries
for thrice fifteen years to come.

RAILROADS AND POLITICS.

ming several lines, which, when built
will be extensions and feeders Of the
Great Northern system. Some of the
newspapers and others seem to pooh
pooh at the idea Of these projected
lines as being anything but bluff, and
done to kill the Hines and other rail-
road schemes.
We think, however, that these pro-
iected lines will he built by the Great
Northern. OF course, the G.. N. de-
sires TO hold the traffic adjacent to
its lines, and as long as it can get 1t
without building more track, it will
not build; but the country is develop
ing rapidly, and railroads in this Sec
tion are cheaply built, and the g. N.
management knows pretty near che
situation of things. and will build for
their own protection when it has to,
and we haye reason to believe that
Mr.. Hill thinks it is about time he
filled up some of the blank spaces in
his railroad system, before they are
occupied by others.
For several years money has been
very close, and railroad building has
been brought almost to standstill
everywhere, but nearly everyone is
prophesying good times lust ahead and
the railroads share in this feeling and
the wonderful crop in the valley last
year, called attention to our limited
track facilities in some localities.
Hence, We believe that Mr.. Hill is
not blufing. We believe that before
1897 closes that he will have direct
line to Duluth from the Red River
Valley and that he will cover all this
wheat country with feeders for the g.
N. road.
We also believe In the near future
that other roads will come into this
territory, because of the traffic thatis
here, and the cheapness with which
roads can be built. and that the time
is coming in the near future that no
farmer in the valley will have to haul
his wheat more than six miles to the
elevator, and most farmers will be
able to take their choice Of competing
lines within that distance. We furth-
er believe that a large part of this
railroad development will come just as
soon as ''good times'' comes; but rail-
roads need capital, and capital will
not be available until the financial
question is settled, and settled right.
Men will not go into large financial
projects like railroad building until
they know upon what coinage basis
they will receive returns for their in
vestments, and we make the predic-
tion. that If. Mckinley is elected, that
this northwest country will see large
amount of railroad development dur
ing the next few years, while if the
free-coinage people are successful,
there will be no investment of money
here, until the consequent panic,
which capitalists, whether rightly or
wrongly, but firmly believe will occur,
has subsidized.
Whatever one may think Of the f.
nancial questions OF the day, there is
no doubt of what the moueyed men of
this and other countries believe, or
that they will act accordingly.

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

The democrats oi Arizona met in con- vention last Monday in Phenix and pro- ceeded at once to organize. An organ ,za- ton vas effected by the election of San Pusdy, of Yams, ss temporary chairman. The permanent chairman was w. A.. Rowe, the s'aunch silver man of Y.vspsi county. Delegates were present from every county in Arizona. The Pima del- egstes tried co have the national delegates instructed for Silver Dick Bland for pres- ideat, bu. they were voted down. The platform as adopted read as follows:
 Resolved. That we. the Democratic party of AriIona. flu convention, repudiate the hnancisl policy of the present national sdministration.
 We endorse the language used by John O. Carlisle in 1873, when he denounced the ''con- spiracy" to destroy silver as -tandaYd money. ss ''the most gigantic crime of this or aay oth- CT age" and we agree with him in the declar- stioa then made that 'the cousum mation of such scheme would ultimately retail more misery upon the hum ,n race thaa all the wars, pestilences aud fsmines that have ever occur red ia the history of the world D
 We are not willing to be parties to such a crime and In order to undo a wroag already done and to prevent further rise in the pur- chasing power of the dollar. we favor the i'm mediate restoration of the free and unli imited coinage of gold and silver at the present legal ratio of i6 to 1, such coinage existed prior to 1873. without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation. such gold and silver to be . full legal tender for all debts. public and private.
 We are opposed to the retirement of the greenback aud demand that the secretary of the treasury. instead of issuing interest bear ing bonis for the purchase of gold shall rec ognixe silver as money of redemption and ex- erc!se the right to redeem greelbacks, treas. ury notes ald all other coin obligations in sil. yer when silver Is m orc convenient.
 Resolved. That the delegates to the national c0nveatioa be. and they are hereby instructed. to vote as urit aud to vote only for s free coinage caldidste for the nomi nation for pres ident and vice president
 Reso,yed. That we, the Democratic party in conyentiou assembled demand the immediate admission of Arizona to the sisterhood of states and that we urge our d gle gate to congr.ss to use his bsst eadeavors to that end.
 Then follows the election of delegates. as follows: J. F. Wilson, Yavapsi; Hugh E. Campbell, CoconIno; W. H. Burbage, Apache; Wiley E. Jones, Graham; W. H. Barnes, Pima; ] L B. Alex .ndsr, Maricopa. Harvey Hubbs was named ss an alternate from Mohsve county. The platform, or rather rss ,lution, adopted by the convention is all right, but ws do ob. ject to at least two of the delegates nam. d [. They have b,sn under the ban oi the sil. yer men for years, and we do not now b. lieve they can bA trds'ed. Time will tell.
