Gov. Powers on the Silver Question.

The following letter from Gov. E. c. Powers, of Prescott, to friend in Kansas, was published recently in the Wichita, Kansas, Eagle. It has the true silver ring to it:
 PRESCOTT, Ariz., Jan g, 1S96.-[H. E. Lewis, Wichita, Kansas, My DEAR COLONEL l-Tn regard to the attitude of the Republican party of the territory upon the silver question, to which you refer in your last friendly letter, have this to say: The party is practically unanimous in favoring the free and unlimited coinage of silver. The two prominent reasons that have led to this unanimity of sentiment, believe, are, First, silver equally with gold was the money recognized by the founders of the republic and contemplated in the constitution of the United States when power was granted to Congress s, Ito coin money and regulate the value thereof" and, Second, it is one of the most important productions of our country, and as such should be upheld.
 No money power, domestic or foreign, influenced the men who organized this government in adopting gold and silver as the metals provided by the Almighty as the best adapted when used together to supply the people tthen poor in purse, but rich in patriotism) with an understandable money currency, cap able of supplying all their wants. So long as both metals were left on an equality, they were the basis of a perfectly satisfactory circulation, and the country advanced rapidly in pros perity and wealth. It was an evil hour when silver was clandestinely deposed from the high position it had held as money metal for more then eighty years iu the history of this coun try, and the result has teen destruc-

HoS. NJ. H. McCoRp, member of the Board of Control, in his address before the Territorial Agricultural Society in Phoenix, last month, struck the key note when he said: Every man who believes in the perfect development of our country should support national system of irrigation; that is the only way thd vacant space in our national domain can be rounded out and our country made sympathetical. Should this great government take hold and carry out such work, which it could do and never feel the cost, even if it required one or two millions of dollars, the mighty southwest (which means Northern Texas, New Mexico, South ern Colorado, Arizona, Southern Utah and Southern California;, which con- tains such vast areas of now useless land, would become veritable para dise."

\EDwIN F1ELD, otherwise known as the Duke of the Gilded Age" died a pauper in Chicago last week. He owned wildcat mining claim at Tombstone which never produced a pound of ore, and sold the surface ground for town lots at an exhorbit- ant figure. Another Tombstone mag nate, Townsite Clark, through fraud and collision with one Randall, the
 first Mayor of Tombstone, obtained title to most of the ground on which the city now stands, and he also died in the poor house. It rarely happens that money obtained illegitimately does any good.

< TIE Phoenix Republican comedies that the nominee of the Republican party will be ian Eastern man with gold environments" but insists on the West and South securing in the platform some concessions for silver. The experience of the people with both the old parties for the past few years has been such as to make them willing to accept any good man who wants tc do right, without any platform. As a rule, platforms mean nothing, and arc twisted and warped to suit everybody

Mr. Jordan,s Mission.

Young Mir. Lewis Jordan, of Phe- nix, who visited with his friend, Porter Fleming, last week, was en route home from trip to Washington, D. c. Mir. Jordan combined business with plea sure at the national capital, and his trip may result in the official decapita- tion of A. C. Baker, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Arizona. While at Washington Jordan, who is an ex- clerk of the Supreme Court, filed charges accusing his honor of various little breaches of judicial integrity and dignity. The most serious charges are collusion and intemperance. An in spector from the department of justice left Washington Thursday, and upon his arrival at Phoenix he will investi- gate the accusations and thoroughly examine the court records.-[ Flagstaff Democrat.

LAST Monday Joseph Sullivan was brought to Florence and lodged in the county hospital, with bullet in his head. It entered just below the left temple, destroying the sight of one eye. The wound was received at Mari copa the day before, at the hands of Conductor Long, of the Southern Pa cific railroad, while Sullivan was att tempting to steal a ride. His condi- tion is dangerous, and the wound is likely to result in death. Joseph is evidently of the genus hobo, but that is no reason why the felony, if one has been committed, should not be fully in vestigated, and the perpetrator pun ished. Some of these brakemen and conductors are getting to be entirely too handy with their guns.

NAPA MOuRNS HER DEAD
George N. Cornwell Ends a Long
Illness by Committing
Suicide.
Tragic Death of a Man Frequently
Honored by the Voters of
His County.

NAPA. CAL, July 2s.-George n. Corn
we'll, one of Napa's oldest residents and a
pioneer of this State, died this morning
at 10:30 o'clock from the result of a pistol
shot wound inflicted by himself with sui
cidal intent. Cornwen went into his gar
den to take his life. He shot himself
through the mouth, the bullet lodging in
the brain. He staggered toward his house,
but soon fell. The old gentleman was
carried into the house and medical aid was
summoned, but he soon expired. Corn
we'll gave as the cause of his despondency
the fear of suffering from cancer. He
had been ill for weeks.
George N. Cornwell was born in Albany
County, New York, on March %, 1895,
His father and mother died before he
reached his seventeenth birthday. AT the
age of eighteen he went to Cincinnati,
where he finished learning the cabinet
makers trade. He returned to Albany,
New York, enlisting in Stevenson's regi-
ment, which came to California in 1S47.
He remained in the service until the
fall of 1S48, when he went TO the mines.
In 1S49 he located in Napa since, which
time he has been influential in the public
affairs of Napa and of the State. He
served in the State Legislature two terms,
and in 1876 he was sent from this district
to the National Democratic Convention in
st. Louis
