Rev. DR.. N. c. Schaffer, State In
structor of Pennsylvania spent part OF
last week in this city to assist Rev.
DIR. Hoffheins of the Reformed Church
with his Lenten services. On Sunday
he delivered very eloquent sermon
on 'the Service of the Reformed
Church to Civil Government which
was based on historical facts and said
the most important is that righteous
ness should be authority. Many facts
were cited about Holland and her
Government which were intensely in.
teresting and instructive. In the
afternoon special service was held fol-

fer spoke on the true idea OF salvation
It is a rare thing such an amount 81
of interesting data is brought together
in a discourse as was in the sermons
delivered by this learned gentleman.

Years ago the poet told us we could
Make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time
Footprints that perhaps another,
Sailing Ger life's stormy main,
Some forlorD and shipwrecked brother
Seeing, might take heart again.
All. the footsteps of my motherl
How they shaped my early course
How they steered me and my brother
With their strong yet gentle force
Now my days are swiftly fleeing,
But the memory naught can shake
OF those footprints on my being,
That her slipper used to make.

HOME MADE SUGAR.

Mr. Claus Spreckels has in hand an extensive scheme for the introduction of beet root culture in California. If successful 1t will cause a revolution in the sugar industry in this country MT. Spreckels has made an exhaustive study of beet root sugar making in Germany and is convinced that it can be proftably undertaken in this west ern country. If his scheme results as he anticipates the whole business in this important industry will be radi- cally changed. To be able to produce at home all the sugar consumed in this country would relieve the people of one of the largest items in our imports, and would be another strong forward step toward the complete industrial inde- pendence of the United States. We rise to remark to MT. Spreckels that if California does not afford him com plete field for his experiments, Arizona is ready to assure him land, water, climate and welcome.

Hereafter there will be two classes of criminals at the Connecticut state prison. In the new wing of the insti- tuition will be placed those who are looked upon as men who are not in reality branded criminals, but who committed the crimes for which they are serving sentence under some ex- traOrdinary pressure, as in a sudden passion or while under the influence of liquor. These prisoners will be taken away from whatever malevolent in. fiuence which constant companionship with the others to whom crime is a second nature possesses, and will be given a chance to have few more priv ileges than the others.

Journal l-Miner

The Journal-Miner of Prescott Wednesday evening contained a lengthy leading editorial, and ten local items of forty-seven lines, all devoted to a denunciation of two delegates from Arizona to the Chicago conven- tion. No names are given. In justice to all of our six citizens now at Chi cago in the interest of silver and in or der that the people of Prescott may not be misled in the matter, it is positively denied that there was any defection in the Arizona delegation. Arizona had but two votes in the temporary organi- zation and they were cast in the af- firmative for the motion to substitute Daniels for Hill as temporary chair man of the convention.

writer in The Spectator is that they do not know the sort of stuff the average American is made of. They are as much at sea in their estimate of his general intelligence as they are to the reasons for his devotion to the insti- tutions of his country. They can't understand that it is his knowledge of his power in the government of the Ma tion that makes him "self confident, though sometimes turbulent" There is much that such writers might learn which they seem to be incapable of inn bibing from books. A personal ex- perience with a single campaign for the presidency would be more instruct i've than a lifetime of speculation from the standpoint of their observations at home

GOOD ADVICE.

The St. Joseph (Mo.) Herald gives it's contemporaries this good advice: 'It has long since been conclusively dem onstrated that the papers that are the fairest and most consistent have the most influence. The papers that use argument instead of vituperation. reason instead of reckless assertion and eschew personal journalism except when such a course is absolutely nec- essary are the ones that receive the confidence and respect of the people and when they express opinions due attention is paid to them by the mem bers of all political parties. If some of our over jealous exchanges will calmly think about what we have to say in this respect we believe they will not go so far in unfairness and incon- sistency as they are now doing. In order to secure the triumph of a good cause it is not necessary to indulge in billingsgate, vituperation and all sorts of personal abuse"

Phoenix has been accused of being deficient in places of amusement and perhaps justly so at one time, but not now since the park swimming baths have attained such high state of ex- cellence. Under the direct manage ment of the street railway company this year the service and patronage have constantly improved. The water is kept always fresh by frequent changes, while the temperature is care fully maintained at the "just right mark. Courteous employees are always in attendance and every care is given to bathers who may enjoy the luxury of dip from early forenoon to late at night. For either pleasure or profit or both no one can do better than to patronize the park swimming baths.

After beating her almost into insensibility he tumbled on a bed and was soon sound asleep. His wife secured an ax and struck the blade with all her force into his head, nearly splitting the skull in twain. At day light the murderess called at the house of alnegro neighbor with her 4-year-old boy, narrated the incidents of the crime and then proceeded to the river, en- tered a skiff and rowed to the Indiana shore.

BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW.

The London Spectator, newspaper eenducted on the most orthodox lines lef English journalism, is moved by it's kurrent news from the United States say that an election here is farce. Fro us.' it continues, ''the whole sys- sfem of managing an American election IS to the last degree offensive. The . voter is cossetted, worshiped, and, we 9 gre afraid, very often cheated. No body seems to think it necessary to en- Tighten him, or to stand upon principle, or to adhere to an opinion because it fs entertained All of which is par ticularly noteworthy because of it's i'm .plied comparison with political prac- >.sices at home, with which the writer is supposed to be personally familiar.
 It is quite safe to say that American elections will not suffer in the direction ramed by the London newspaper if considered side by side with those of + England, and in the way of bitter con- Sntion and violence intelligent investi- eation would show that the palm for general decency is decidedly with the neople of the United States.
 It is not necessary to defend all the 6actices more or less common to our
 sctions in order to disprove the more
 pus of the strictures of The Spec
 Elor. It certainly. is not true that no Eeffort is made to enlighten the Ameri- ean voter on the question at issue in political campaigns, for among the more than 16,OO0 newspapers of the country thera is not an issue during Ghe progress of an election canvass that does not contain instructive matter to Chat end. Tons upon tons of docu- } Eents are circulated broadcast for the same purpose. and the average voter never tires of listening to speeches by the representative men of all parties who discourse at length upon the lead. Ing questions with a degree of intelli- gence fully as creditable. we warrant as any debates that may be heard al 'the musings in old England.

The average voter with us is more of a politician than his kind in any ether country, and he does not follow Ais leader as blindly as his Englisf Brother, because he is profoundly i'm nressed by a sense of his responsibility as a part of the government by thu beople.

THE SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

Tucson Star: There are some would be statesmen who have been masquer- ading as silver men in Arizona and out and out goldbugs in Washington. The Star will snatch the masks from these walking illustrations of duplicity at a time when it will do the silver Dem ocrats most good, and expose the de- ception with the most effect, and to the best purpose.
 Tucson Star: "The Leader" but three weeks old. That long felt want; the true blue Democratic journal; "The organ" has deceased, gone up the Hume; dissipated into thin air; gone to Tucson's newspaper boneyard to join seven deceased daily comrades and eight weekly brethren which were born, struggled and died in this city The proprietor and manager of The Leader is no more also. He has gone. Some folks would like to know where, but they can't find out. Perhaps he has gone to Prescott to supply the long felt want up there. But so far as Tue son is concerned The Leader is no more It died young. It must have been mighty good.
 
 Tombstone Prospector: Many Ari- zona people are now disseminating gold standard newspapers. The Los An geles Times and San Francisco Chron- | icle have lost many subscribers be- l cause of their hostility to silver and | others will meet a similar fate. Ari- zonans are loyal and consistent.
 
 1 Prescott Journal-Miner: There is consistency in all things, even in poli- tics This being so and as it is now an indisputed fact that the monetary question is to be the only issue before the American people from Democratic standpoint, this party should select, accordingly, one whose fidelity and ability to the cause of silver should be unquestioned. Not alone should the Democratic party handle MT. Teller as it's nominee, but the Populists should fall into line gracefully in the same 1 fight. To both of these parties and their principles of relief to Americans, there is but one question and that is the cause of the white metal. The mere mention of Teller's name yester- day in Chicago evoked tremendous ap- plause. This fact demonstrated his popularity, and his ability as capable to champion any cause attached to sil- yer. But will either party follow the Coloradan? Probably not, for in the ranks of both parties there is more sell f1shness for men rather than pros perity for all, greed even in defeat rather than success for the cause, and worse than all, Democracy and Popu- lism must ruin the country from with in it's own ranks before they will step into a field and select a man they at heart know is perfect and capable to champion their causes.
 Tucson Star: History tells us that he who invented the guillotine was it's victim. History is liable to repeat it. self and right here in Arizona.
 Tucson Star: What commentary the present National convention is up- on the chief magistrate of this great republic. There appears none so poor as to do the honor of mentioning his name. Even the goldbugs speak his name only in undertones. Why is this?
