s.rHE KING Is DEAD. LONG LIVE
 THE KING "

AhE MING
 Governor Hughes Is removed. Ills enemies, wEo have been at work for the pas; three years, have al last accomplished their purpose, aud Hughes is down now, and they arc on top.
 The charges which have been fled against him have embraced nearly every crime known, but the sin of all sins in tho democratic mind, Is that be did not administer the affairs of the territory on partisan grounds and for the benefit of the demo. cratic party, which placed him iu power. With his political record as governor, the JoCRNAL-MINER ba- nothing to do and has nothing to say, as he claimed allegiance to tho democratic party and was appointed by a democratic president. So Tar as his official acts, otherwise, have come to light, his administration has been an economical one, and the best interests of the territory have been subserved generally, so far ss known.
 There has been only one feature of his administration to which We object, and that was the reckless and indiscriminate use of the pardoning and parole power He has turned loose upon the community some of the worst criminals that have ever gone unhung. of which mention has been previously made.
 While his enemies are just now trsmpling all over him with thei- hob nailed boots, Governor Hughes has wonderful recuperative powers, and he will be heard from in the not remote future.
 B.J. Franklin the newly appointed governor, is a comparative stranger to the JOURNAL MINER. He has re- sided about four years in the Salt river valley, and the following con- corning him are from papers pub lished in Phenix:
 "Governor Franklin Is a democrat. He is democrat of democrats, and DO republican will hold office under his administration. But notWi;h- standing that fact, We lift up our voice and rejoice with the pOpJ.sce. He is broad. clean and capable, and that IS why We congratulate the people upon their new governor We say this as a republican having only the best interests of the whole people in mind. Republican.
 The appointment of Col. E. J. Franklin 10 the position of governor of Arizona, Is worthy tribute to an able. honest man, who will per form his duty to the public without fear or favor. and always be loyal to the democracy of the territory. Temporary promotion too often en- largeS 'he head of the recipient of public favors. Men forget their friends and the party to whom they owe their elevation; but the Gazette has an abiding faith in the integrity and sterling good sense oi Colonel Franklin, and we, in common with the democratic party of the terri tory, feel that. under his guidauce. the old party will march to au easy victory this coming fall The rast IS gone, It it repoSe in peace; but let Us move in harmony to ac ieye democratic success. .-Gazette.

A s;aH writer in the popUlist paper Of Pheui1, who Is noted chi gy for a very vivid imagination, which makes It impossible for him to tell the truth in the most common place matters, says that "a red hot jour- nalistic war has 6eeD precipita!cd m Prescott" Readers Of the twr Pres colt papers will be surprised to learn this, as it Is not visible the naked eye, aud could only have been discovered through the highly mag nifying imaginative powers of pop writer. Further along in the item referred to, this cheerful lar says: "The Prescott JoURNAL-MINER whose chief distinction is that its editor has sold himself often and received less than any other man in Arizona. takes exception to the sug- gestion.'

There ls said To be a mov-n ent on foot between the populists aud re- publicans of Texas by which they hope 10 capture that state from democratic rule this year. The proposition comes from republicans, according to a certain we'll known pOpulist leader, who made the pro posed fusion known to au Associated Press representative the other day. The proposition Is that populisls place republican presidential elect ors ou theIr ticket this year, and in return the republicans will put the populist state candidates for state offices on their ticke,. By thus cor solidating theIr vote the two parties expect to defeat the democratic party The returns of the late r,ec- tion show that such move, iffaith- fully carried out, wonld out vote the democrats. The proposition is a very poor one, according Co the JoURNAL-MISER's way of thinking. The republican party has always beeu c party o' principle and not of policy aud it should not fuse with any party for temporary success, and above all things else it should never countenance any proposition such as the above, looking towards turning the great state or Texas over to the popuiists B-ttera thousand times let 1t remain under demo cratic rule.
