sons candidacy is but reasonable then, and while it is confined 10 those within his party, Il serves also as a lesson to others of the same cAncerous disposition. While the name of W. A. Rowe is being con- sidered for the nomination by a great number of his party, and par ticularly by those who refuse to bow in seryility to any oue everlast- ingly. there Is no probability how ever, that be will permit his name to go before the coming democratic convention. But the mere fact of his or any other persons name is but a natural conclusion to expect under the conditions prevailing in Arizo na at present.. in this that democracy is not founded on sutocratic princi- ples. a~d above all our enemies are not pinned to the unit rule simply because q handful of men in con vention assembled say so.

It is told of Miss Winnie Davis, "the Daughter of the Confederacy, " that one day, when very young child, she was taken by her mother to the British museum. The little girl took keen interest in all she saw there and appreciated 1t with an intelligence beyond her years All at once Mrs. Davis, whose atten- ton had been absorbed by some work of art, missed her little dIugh- ter and aSter a hurried search found her before a statue of Calphurnia, whose curled hair and turned up nose gave her a distinctly modern look. The child was addressing the marble eagerly.
 Come to my arms, her mother heard her say, flor you arc one of our people. You look just like us and not like all the rest "-Philadel- phia Press.

mVDROPHoBIA AS \ SIMULATED
 DISEASE.


 From an Open Letter 10 Editors" on the above subject We quote the following:
 We have observed with regret numerous sensational stories concerning alleged mad dogs and the terrible results to human beings bitten by them, which are published from time to time in the newspapers. Such accounts frighten people into various nervous disOr- ders ana cause brutal treatment of animals suspected of madness; and yet there Is upon record great mass of testimony from physicians asserting the extreme rarity of hy- drophobia even in the dog. while many medical men of wide eIperI- ence are of the opinion that fl it de- yelops in human beings at all, lt IS only on extremely rare occasions; ] that the condition of hysJerical ex- citement in man described by news papers as 'hydrophobia' Is merely a series of symptoms. due usually to a dread of the disease, such dread be ing caused by realistic newspaper and other reports acting upon the imsginations of persons scratched | or bitten by animals suspected oi ] rabies.
 The late pr. Hiram Corson whose practice extended over a period oi seventy i7O) years, during which ! time he searched diligently for th, ! disease in man or animal, wrot, under date of January Is, 1895. ''l have never had a real case of hydro phobia."
 ~Dr. Traill Green, a physician lik, ] pr. Corson, accurate in observai for careful in statement, and who's, practice also extends over a ions period. writes under date of Janu- ary 2S, 1895, II have never had { case of hydrophobia. nor have l eve ] seen a case" in the practice of o.he physicians.
 "Dr. Matthew Woods who has beeI ! in quest of the disease for twcut, years, and who during two summer ! personally visited every case re ported in Philadelphia, asserts tha he never saw hydrophobia either 1T man or animal. and although si! years ago. at the conclusion Cf pa Der on the subject read before large audience, he offered SlOO (, any person bringing him such patient, yet so far no one has claime' the reward. Dr. Woods further more adds that although he ha ! questioned many physicians on th, subject he has not yet found on who has ever seen hydropA )bi ! either in man or animal.
 At the Philadelphia dog pound where. on an average, over six thou sand 5000 vsgrsnt dogs are tske up annually, and where the catch !

 The Yavapai county grand jury spoke out in meeting in regard to to the delays of the supreme court in transacting business Over a year ago Paul Loske and Wm. Schultz were tried and convicted of the murder of c. K. W. McNsry. They were sentenced 10 be hanged on August g, 1895. An appeal was taken to the supreme court and 8 stay of execution granted, pending the hearing of said appeal the supreme court met in PheniX Tn January, 1896, and was in session two or three weeks. It met there again in May and in Prescott in June and yet no determination of the case has been had. In the meantime the two men arc ID jail m suspense and the county Is put to the expense of maintaining them. While the grand jury has no luris- dictiOn over the supreme court and while their suggestion will probably % unheeded 1t is just as we'll that this August tribunal may know how the people feel as the grand jury has voiced the sentiment of tal payers generally in the case.
 Tue ineomptency of the demo cratic party to manage the financial affairs of the country is partially set forth in the following fromsth' Phenix Herald: Never in the his tory of the nation has the United States piled up such indebtedness in times of peace as has the demo cratic administration of our nationa affairs, and to this fact is lirgel, due the hard times that have pre- vailed. for it Is fact that capita has been frightened from all enter prises by the conduct of our publi affairs, which have given no assur ance but financial disaster. In tn, three years that have intervene, since the inauguration of a demo cratic president, no public indebted ness whatever has been paid of; oi the other hand, the debt has beei increased Sl37,5OO.0OO, and thi money has been borrowed in gol, from England mostly. and othe foreign countries. Such an imbecil policy as has prevailed in fnsncis affairs has never before disgrace the American people. The demo cratic party, which nailed in it platform q silver plank in 1892, tor that plank out and scattered itt the four winds, and gave silver Il final quietus by the repeal of tn silver purchasing act; 1t returne the country to as near free trade q it dared, and disaster has bee written in every line of our politica and material history every hou since that day. And yet, with tha increased indebtedness by Sl37 800, OOO, that party Is attempting [ lead the nation astray and to over look the tarif and the protectiv necessities of this country, the onl thing that will ever return th nation to a stable prosperity

The bearskin hats of some British regiments were at first devised with the idea of striking terror into the hearts of their enemies. The same principle is shown in the dreadful figures worn by the knights on their helmets and sometimes emblazoned on their shields. The ancient Ger mans wore horned helmets to in- spire terror in the enemy and car ried figures of strange animals as standards.

Careful When Talking Co StranRarA
 A rare story has just come to light, and, although the incidents are alleged to have happened soma time ago, the narrative is well worth publishing. Once upon a time Mr. l. P. Tifault enjoyed an exception. ally good dinner at his homo and came down to the store at psacs with all the world. As he entered the building he noticed a shrewd eyed, pleasant faced young man standing near the door and at oncs spotted him for a travelling man. He greeted the stranger, shook hands, etc, and in answer to an in- quiry as to how be was feeling re- piled:

 There was a quizzical smiis oa the strangers face as MT.
