personal statement broadly repudia- ting the whole thing.
 He had done the same thing before and it served his purpose to a charm. That occasion was during the special session of congress in 1893, which he had called to wipe out the silver pur- chase law. It was then "authorita- lively asserted that it was the aim of the administration ito put the country on single gold standard basis, with no half way work about it. He saw at once that it was an indiscretion that likely ito cost many votes, and made an open declaration that all he wanted was to have the purchase clause acted upon without any entanglement-that the future standing of silver would be attended to afterwards. He saved himself on that occasion, for he had a different man to deal with than his present secretary of state.
 It was Mr. Olney who furnished the statement of last week ito the Associ- ated Press. Nobody will believe that it was written without the knowledge of Mr. Cleveland, or that it was pub ished without his sanction. It pro- duced a different effect than antici- pated and there was nothing to do but to turn tail as he did on the previous occasion. The secretary of state re- fused ito stand as scapegoat, under the charge that he was talking through his hat, and he undoubtedly told his superior as much before supplying the press with the explanation given to the newspapers on Sunday.
 The next proclamation unquestion- ably correctly defined the presidents attitude on the question of Cuban bel ligerency, and his denial of the fact was a piece of subterfuge that he would be ashamed of if his cuticule was not impervious to the shafts of public opinion.

When Cleveland made a flat denial of all responsibility for the statement given out as to his proposition on the Cuban question, last week, he put his foot in it. He miscalculated the tenn per of the man he had to deal with. He had seen that he was getting in
 deep water and hastily concluded that tie shortest way out was ito make a

ENCOURAGING RESULTS.

As the business forces are getting together here for an active campaign in. behalf of the business expansion and further improvement of the city, there could be no stronger arguments 'presented to arouse enthusiasm than the. already accomplished facts and their value to Phoenix.
 Uo we want more sidewalks and sewerage and drainage?
 It is only necessary ito contrast the unpaved walks with the paved, the sections of the city without drainage and sewerage with those sections that have both In the improved parts of the city the property is more valuable, more in demand, more attractive every way. There is no comparison :. between these portions and those DOT tfons yet remaining unirnproved
 Do we want more factories? It is but necessary to note the success of those of every description already es- tablished and their tremendous effect on the retail and shipping trade of the city. It is the shops and mills and scores of little manufacturing plants that furnish the bucket brigade and give to Phoenix it's all year round re- tail trade. Imagine the number of such plants doubled Think of the vast impetus and increase to trade!
 Phoenix has never completed an improvement or inaugurated a new enterprise that the result has not been immediately and benefcially felt in business and in the comfort of living whether that addition has been a new mill, a newly paved walk, a mod est factory, the extension of a car line, new lights or sewers, new wholesale houses, or what not. The growth of business and popula- tion on a. rapid scale began with the inauguration of local improvements, and has kept pace with the spirit of progress.
 It is well to remember this.
 Accomplished facts furnish the best lessons and are the strongest argu- ments The business forces which are organizing now for further effort have everything ito inspire and encourage them in the history of the town for she past six years. The success and development which that period has witnessed can be easily duplicated, and at less cost and with less effort, for we now have substantial founda- tion upon which to build. There is every reason, therefore, why the busi- ness men should start upon their good work with enthusiasm and a conf- dence of success born of experience and the actual presence of splendid re- suits of past enterprise

Ayers Sarsaparilla enjoys the ex- traordinary distinction of having been the only blood purifier allowed an ex- hibit at the Worlds Fair, Chicago. Manufacturers of other sarsaparillas sought by every means to obtain a showing of their goods, but they were all turned away under the application of the rule forbidding. the entry of patent medicines and nostrums. The decision of the Worlds Fair authori- ties in favor of Ayers Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows: Ayers Sarsapa- rilla is not a patent medicine. It does not belong to the list of nostrums.
