easiest and best way out of the embarrassing situation. It resulted In the adoption of the majority re port and the trampling under feet of the resolution censuring Mr Cleveland's financial policy.
 The convention then proceeded with the election of delegates to the PheniI convention, with the result As already announced, the election of the Wilson delegates being made unanimous on motion of Henry Goldwster.
 At this juncture, Judge Rees6 M. Ling, in a neat little speech, said he had made a fight and had lost, and be therefore moved that the dele gates just elected be instructed to vote for Col. J. F. Wilson for dele gate to the Chicago convention, and to use all honorable means to secure his election. This brought the chairman tO his feet with an enthu- siAstic democratic hAllelujAh shout, saying that that was the kind of a democrat he liked to see, and the convention joined in the hallelulah and adopted Judge Ling's motion, and gave three cheers and tiger for the author of it.
 Register II. D. Ross, of the land office, who represented two pre- cincts in the convention, then arose while the enthusiasm was still at white heat and moved that the dele gation be instructed to support and to use all honorable means 10 secure the election Of R. M. Ling as alter nate to the Chicago convention, and this motion was carried.
 On motion of H. Fl. Cartier, the delegation was pledged to the adop- ton of the unit rule m the PheniX convention.
 Col. Wilson was then called for aud he delivered quite an eloquent speech. during which he read an extract from a letter which be re gently received from Senator Jones, of Arkansas, in which that distin- guishsd gentleman was quoted as using the following suggestive words: Please keep a sharp lookout on the situation and send delegates to Chicago who cannot be bought or bulldozed."
 The Senator apparently seemed somewhat suspicious of Arizona democrats from this caution which he injected into the letter, and knowing the sterling honesty of the gentleman to whom 1t was addressed. thought he would be a sale custO- dian ot the delegation.
 At the conclusion of Col. Wilson's speech, the convention adjourned sine die.

 On the reconvening of the demo cratic convention on MondAy after. noon at 2 o'clock, the committee cn order ol business submitted ils re- port, which was adopted.
 Tho commIttcs on resolutions sub. mitted a majority and minority fu- port, the majority report being sigaed by Dennis A Burke and W. S Adams sad read as follows.
 Mir. Chairman Your committs,e on platform beg to report As fol- lows:
 "Ths democratic party of YAvA. pai county in convention assembled, does hereby resterate its allegiance Co the democratic principles of Jefferson and Jackson. 70 the in- teress of tb. people against the concentration of power, and de clare
 "Thst we are in favor of the free and unlimited coinage of both gold and silver into coins of full deb. paying power, and that our dele gates elected Co represent this eoun- ~ in the territorial convention, 10 be held in PheniK on June s, 1896. Co select delegates to represent the democratic party of the territory at the national convention to be held in Chicago in July. are hereby in- structed Co cast th.ir votes only for delegates Co the national convention who are known to be in favor of such free and unlimited coinage of gold and silver, and who will sup port a nominee for president only upon free silver platform
 II. T Andrews, chairman Of tho committee on resolutions. submitted a minority report, which was the same resolution introduced by him at the morning session, and which was voted down. This resolution seems Co have been inadvertently(f) omitted by our morning contem- pOrary, and in order that democrats all over the county may have a full and complete report of the proceed ings of their convention, the resolu- tion is here given:
 "The democratic party of Yavapai county, in convention assembled, does hereby reitera.e its allegiance to the democratic principles of Jef- ferson and Jackson, in the interest of the people against the concentra- ton of power, and declare that they are opposed Co and condemn the financial policy of MT. Cleveland for the following reasons;
 list: It is anti-democratic; being contrary to the principles of the democratic party, and contrary to the platforms of the party upon which 1t achieved it's victories.
 "2d: it is anti American"
 The remainder of the resolution was practically the same as that of the majority report.
 The question of how to best dis pose of these resolutions occasioned considerable parliamentary skir- mishing, but Chairman Rowe was equal to the emergency and he took hold of the parliamentary dilemma and established some rulings, which, if not strictly in harmony with Gushing or Roberts, or Jefferson, were in accordance with the wishes of the convention, anC served as the

 The Woman's club of Prescott met yesterday afternoon and more interesting session has not been held this year.
 The critical review of the previous meeting was by Mrs. Dr. Butler; a paper on The Establishment of the Second Empire" by Mrs. J. J. Fisher; a paper on "The Franco Prussian War and the Downfall of the Em- pire," by Mrs. J. J. WrsgOvich; s paper on 'The Present French Re- public" by Mrs. Sarah M Blake. The president, Mrs. Tritle, then de liyered shert but very pleasing ad- dress, commenting the vice-presi- dent, secretary, treasurer, literary committee and members of the club for the faithful manner in which they have performed their various duties during the year.
 Mrs. Gurovits, the vice-pTesident, in few well chosen words expressed the gratitude of the members of the club to Mrs. Tritle for the able man ner in which she has conducted and preserved perfect order in the club since its organization.
 The club then adjourned until the first or second Monday in Oc- tObaF

Whereas, We are reliably in.
formed that in addition to the loss

standard size Of 22x5S inches; and
Whereas. Wide publicity has
been and will be given Of the evi
growing out Of the large bale, ant
all ginners have been requested i'
change their boxes to the siandar,
size.
Resolved, That as we will b.
compelled on aud after Septembe
