ARIZONA'S FRIEND.

The New York Tribune of the 23d contains two-column contribution from tho report of Gov. Hughes to the secretary of the interior for 1895, which presents Arizona in a most favorable light, a d will do much to correct the erroneous views eastern people have entertained of this.terli ory.. 10 publication has p peared which will result in so much good and advavce the interest of statehood moro than the Tribune's contribution, for 1t will be read by the most desirable class of people, and the circulation of this grcat journal is so widespread thAt many good citizens will be draw wn to Ari- zona in quest of new homes and in. vestment in our rich resources of wealth. No one within the territo. ry eau do so much to bring Arizona before the country or can contri- bute so much to securing statehood for us as Hon. Wbitelaw Reid, who with Mrs. Reid IS enjoying the sup erb climate of the capitol city of the territory. The Star, in common with the press of Arizona, was re- ioiced to learn of this distinguished journal st coming to enjoy our be
 nign climate, for we believe .he ter rltory would receive just treatment and far play in the Tribune, and this, we felt, meant much for our prosperity by the coming of de- sirable population, the investment of ca pltal and best of all, the ad- mission of Arizona to statehood. With Editor Rr,d as Arizona's friend, statehood IS assured, and this consideration breaks over par ty lines and everything else which stands in the way of this most wisht d for consummation-Star.

THESE ARE OUR JEWELS.

Whenever Democrats feel the twInges of remorse and the stings of regret in watching the election of Republican Senators, they should turn to the comfort of comparing the character of the leaders left to them with the lack of character ap parent in the Republican leaders now comiNg to the front. For one reason or another Dem crats may express discontent with Cleveland, Morrison, Bland and Carlisle. But what Republican ranks near any of them in manli ness of character, in honesty oi purpose, in boldness of speech and action?
 Reed, a fippani and shallow mix ture of Blaine and Ingal;s; Me- Kinley, a commonplace droner of one song, who never yet could lead d tariff debate; Allison. q coaxer and d bending reed-here are the three mighty men of the Republ.- can host.
 Harrison is mo longer big in pol tiles. Morton, in his prime, was not strong enough to deal with Gar field except through abler men and now stands for nothing except Tom Platt's dummy.
 II the Democracy did not pos sess single availability, it would have an abundance of men whose mental caliber and weight of char acter are in class above availabil ity.
 Democracy breeds solid and in dependent character. It attracts the young men of broad sympathies and sincere ambitions. The Re- publican party borrowed it's strong est spirit from the Democracy men who may have been wrong in thought, but were never towards or ~hil kers.
 From the unbroken line of lief fersons, Jacks ons, Bentons. Doug lases, Thurmans, Vallandighams, Randall>, Morrisons, Carlisles and Clevelands we can see why the Democratic party is indestructible. Whether any Democratic statesman judges we'll or i'll upon particular question whether the party is uni ted or divided at a particular time, certain 1t always is that around the core of Democratic belief are gath cred the best, truest and bravest of the American nation. That is why the Democratic party often loses power through the heat of its dis cussions and always regains power ny the inherent right of its doctrine and the invulnerable strength of it's manhood.

SNYDER'S IMPORTATION. Tick Infested Cattle Released
 From Quarantine.

The Texas fever tick infested cat tie brought in October, 1895, from Mitchell county, Texas, to Bisbef Ariz.. and there held in quarantine by he live stock sanitary commis- sion of Arizona, were released on the 23d of January, after being ex- amined by the territorial veterinnf. Ian and found free from any visible means of communicating Texas fever.
 Mr. H. D. Snyder, the owner who brought these cattle to the territory in violation of the law governing inportations of cattle from Texas, has had an experience in this line that should be borne in mind by every cattle man who contemplate bringing cattle into Arizona. or for that matter, moving cattle to any state,
 Mir. Snyder some time ago ran lhe quarantine blockade into the state of Kansas and only succeeded ilL extricating himself at an expen- allure of about $1 300 in costs and expenses attaching to the experi- ment; not satisfied with this, he tried a parallel violatioH of the quarantine law of Arizona, with the result that his cattle were seized, placed in the hand of the sheriff of Cochise county. A barbel wire en closure three fuurths of ;l mile wide and one and one half mile long, en- closingall the ground the cattle had been driven over. was built, under the supervision of the quarantine officer, at the expense of Mir. Shy der.
 The law directs the sanitary com mission to deliver quarantined cat tie to the owner on December first, provided he pays all costs and ex- penses caused by the importation. On this day the ArZnna commis- sion rendered the cattle to Mr. Shy der with a bill of $264 costs to that date, Mr. Snyder notified the com mission that he would not pay the bill presented until he could con- suit his Tucson attorney, mean time expenses continued, grass got short ;n the pasture. which IS To- cated in the bleak open unprotected bottom between the mule and San Jose mountains, the water, never in abundance, grows less, so that the result, summed up on the morning of January 23d was as follows: Costs and expenses as per itemized bill presented, $61000. The whole herd of cattle (S3 head) then alive, in wretched condition so poor that they can not be moved fifteen miles to a more protected pasture until they are fed with hay or grain into d better condition; seven head ol COWS and three calves died.
 The herd imported originally consisted of (S7) eighty seven head Df mixed Hereford and Durham cattle, ten died, and six calves have b en born since they were placed in quarantines. there being now alive 59 COWS, 25 bulls, and 19 sucking calves.
 Because of the importation tn Arizona of these Texas fever tick infested cattle to Arizona, the Bis bee cattle loading pens were quar- antined by the U. s. governmt mt and were only released after heing thoroughly dlsinfected by the live stock sanitary commission of Ari- zona under the supervision of an agent of the Bureau of Animal In d lstry.

Much has been said about the possibility
of the Republicans losing the Indiana Leg
