WALES A WINNER.
His Colt Took the Great Derby-His-
 torical Coincidence

EPSOM, England, June 3.-Persim- mons, the Prince of Wales colt, at 5 to 1 against him, won the Derby today. Leopold De Rothschilds "St Trus- quin'' was second, and H. E. Bedding tons Earwig was third. Persimmons was the best Derby time since 1867.
 This in the first time in one hundred and eight years that prince of Wales has won the blue ribbon of the turf. In 178S the prince, who subsequently reigned as George ", won the Derby with Sir Thomas, the favorite, and it may be remarked as a coincidence there were eleven starters then and eleven horses ran in the race today.

BLACKLIST SUSPENDED.
The Southern Pacific May Reinstate
 Strikers.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 3.-The Southern Pacific company has granted amnesty to the strikers who refused to work three years ago, and who were afterwards refused reinstatement by the company. The strikers claimed that the road blacklisted them so that they could not obtain employment on any road in the country. Manager J. A. Fillmore has issued an order to the various division superintendents au- thorizing them to employ ex-strikers whenever vacancies exist. When a good man applies to the railroad for employment the fact that he partfci- pated in the big strike will not pre- vent his being engaged.

Annual Meeting of the Alumni As SoCiation-ProgreSS of the

At the Territorial Normal school this year the exercises incident to com mencement time will be upon scale of elaboration never before known to that admirable institution. President McNaughton, the faculty and students, alumni and board are alike active.
 The calendar of the week of com mencement has been issued. Sunday, mon by Rev. W. D. VCaughn at the Baptist church, Tempe, at 7:30. Mon day will be class day and will be ob- served by class breakfast at the resi- mon by Rev. w. E. Vaughn at the and by literary exercises and presenta- tion of memorial at Normal hall at 8 D. m. Tuesday will be the anniversary of literary societies and will be fit tingly observed in the evening by the Zetetic and Hesperian societies. We'd nesday will be commencement day. The graduating exercises at p. m. will be held, for the sake of comfort and for room, on the campus of the DGlW66H Ilc u6W anu Olu DuIlu- ing.
 Thursday will be given over to the Alumni of the school. The association will meet at 3 p. m. and again at 8 p. m. The afternoon session will be for the election of officers for the ensuing year. In the evening will be the an nual meeting for the reception of the graduating class of '96, and will en- brace literary features and a banquet This meeting has heretofore been strictly limited to Alumni members but it is understood this year the asso- citation will receive as guests the fac ulty, the board of education and the governor.
 The past year has in all respects been the most notable ever known to the Territorial Normal. The progress educationally, has never by it been sur passed, upon the grounds, as a mark of the territory's appreciation, has risen a noble school structure that is to be occupied within the year, and the con- ditions essential to future success have been firmly set to withstand all as- saults.

1T WAS JOE'S
 OWN CONVENTION ]. L. B. Alexander Endorsed for National Delegate. His Henchmen Do His Sweet Will. A Quiet, Though Democratic,
 Gdtn6flng. It's Only Notable Incident a Fiery An1i-CIeVeland Speech by
 Judge Morton of
 Mesa.
A Quiet, Though Democratic, Gathering.

J, l.. E. Alexander, than WnOm uOue other in Maricopa may now be known as "Joe,' yesterday routed the hosts of the enemy and enthroned himself safe ly and most prominently in the chair of political bossdom. He ''got there," did Joe; he got there with both his little feet. He showed that the opin- ion of his friends is not in error and that his enemies have not been amiss; he is a smooth article and the local Democracy are hiSn. His elasticity was shown in the fact of his early re- cuperation from his defeat at the city polls the day before, but then he was dealing largely with Republicans over whom his scepter had 10 power. Yes terday he came forth in fresh panoply of war and behold, by the eventide the wrecks of opposition were cast by the waves upon the shore of diversity.
 If any man in Maricopa county knows the Democratic voters thereof, that individual is Joseph. These many days agone hepicked his tickets and the men he named were by a considerable majority in evidence yesterday. At his right hand sat Frank Baxter and George Purdy Bullard (please always spell out in fulD, and between the three of them everything went very nicely.
 AS to the opposition? There seemed to be plenty of it in the rank and file, but there were few opponents in the convention. The fight was, on it's face, the naming of delegate to Chicago, but the animus was far back of this and lay in the political fight that has for years been maintained between AL exander and w. T. Smith. Smith for these twenty years has been a sort of packhorse for the county Democracy. He has put up in cash many thousands of dollars to the support of the party and it's measures and seems to devote half his time to it's work; yet to him has come little remuneration save such as comes through a term or so in the legislative council and petty office as city councilman. He had an idea of opposing Joe in his ambition, as Joe has often opposed him in his, and to that end was supporting the aspira- tion of H. H. Logan to be delegate to Chicago. But Smith is no sorehead, and it is presumed will be found this fall just as enthusiastic a Democrat as ever.
 All in all, the convention was the "swiftest' ever known in the Demo- cratic history of the county Usually they are somewhat of a tumble and be- gin and end in something of free-for- all scrap That of yesterday wasn't, however The only debate. even, was over the platform as to the National administration. Smith had a motion to endorse Cleveland, save for his money ideas, for Smith is a silver man, however much an admirer of the pres ident otherwise. The motion vas downed by the Alexander nlai3ri.2. at the wink of the boss, and a platform adopted which, while it favored free silver in one place, emasculated it's own utterances in the end by pledging an unquestioning support Of the Chi

There has been a remarkable change

credible But it shows conclusively the
disastrous effect of Democratic admin

following business results:

the full years business, the total bank
clearings during three Democratic years
were approximately $50, 900, 600, 600 less
than under the three years of Re-
publican administration. The bank
clearings are always regarded as afford
ing an approximate idea of the volume
of business that is transacted throughout
the country. 1t is not necessary to COM
ment upon them. They must appeal to
every wage Garner and every man Of
business. The remedy-to get rid of ev-
cry vestige Of Democratic control in the
administration of national affairs-is in
the hands of the people.

Farmers Want Home Markets.

In 1892, under protection, we sold
farm products in the markets of the
world that were worth to us $500, 00O,-
900 in round numbers. In 1895, the first
complete tariff reform year, we sold
farm products worth only S546, 600, 900.
The capture of the markets of the world,
under free trade administration, cost
farmers 1854, 900, 900. No wonder they
want little more Mckinley protection.

Since 1890 the bank clearings have
decreased at the rate of $l3, 500, 900, 600
a year, meaning an approximate loss of
business of 81, 900, 000,0 900 a month.
The gain of the first half of this year,
over 1895, is comparatively trifling-
only $50, 200, 900 a month.
