 The sophistry of the gold standard men in asserting that the election of Bryan would create panic is an insult to the patriotism and intelligence of of the men of this republic. The Ga zette has only this to say. that if this be true the sooner the panic comes the the burdens that will arise from such a condition than transmit them to our children. If trouble IS to grow out of the election of a peerless citizen of this republic. then we say let it come. IT capital is so emphatic m it's demands to govern thIs nation. if corporations and corporate wealth cannot stand the strain of an honest. clean handed ad . ministration of affairs. the sooner the line of battle is formed the better; if the men who follow the blow, who stand as it pushes out into tile darkness, ca reering over plain and through mount aims; if the men who stand at the an vii and forge and those who toll in the levels of the mines of this country; if the free exercise of the ballot by these sturdy sons of a great nation will de- stroy and overtuIn this government il Is 8 sham and fraud and ought to fall, if hundred and twenty years of d growing, prosperous republic can't staud the shock of freeman's ballots let the old fabric tremble and fall. But it IS not the truth. This is a govern ment of the people, it is majority and when William J. Bryan takes his seat in the White House, the will be ashamed of ever ad- vancing such arguments. and will. like all other good citizens, form in line and march to the tune of the nations pros- perity.

Which Rascal |?

"Partisanship runs very high now In the part of the country come from" said q southern visitor to the Democrat ic national headquarters last week, re- ports the Chicago Tribune. You know the old story of the man who would not vose for saint unless he were & candi- date on the Democratic ticket. We'll, there are plenty of other Democrats who feel the same way, and 1 do not believe that any of the states of the Far South will ever go Republican. Here is a story in point:
 "A couple of years ago a man who had been travelling up North came home to vote. He was met uear the station by another Democrat, where upon the following conversation en- sued

A Denial.

To the Voters of Apache County.
 Among the numerous campaign lies which have been circulated about me, feel it incumbent upon myself to take notice of two. Certain Republican pol iticians of the lower class have stated that 1 had said that if were not nom mated for probate judge that intended ito get after the 'polygamists.'
 Secondly, that l postponed school until after the Democratic convention, with the intention of "nring every Mormon" in case were not nominated.
 I deny both Tn toto. l never said would "fire tue Mormons." and never had any such intention, and I appeal to my three years record as school trustee, to my pubic utterances and my social relations to prove how stand on that question. The absurdity of the thing is apparent on it's face. could not "fre she Mormons" without the assistance of another trustee, and as I have repeatedly refused to act Tn concert with Mir. Gonzales. MT. Ben Richey would have to join with me in removing the Mormons without cause And If any one will look up paragraph 1862, page 2S5. Revised Statutes, 18S7, {, Territory of Arizona, they will see that when there is disagreement between the teachers and the trustees an appea. is taken to the probate judge. whose decision is final. Would Judge Farr uphold me in firing Mormons" with out cause?
 Further, I was the one who set the day for the opening of school on the 2lst of September, the day before the Democratic convention. and It was at some other persons request that school wa, postponed until the 18th. For the truthfulnesS Of which refer all per- sons to Mir, Ben Richey. So much for this lie.

CRISP IS DEAD.
There Will Be a TusSle for the
 SenatOrship of Georgia.

 A telegram from Atlanta, Georgia, dated the 23d inst, says:
 Hon. Charles B. Frederick Crisp, Speaker of the Fifty first and Fifty second congresses, died al Holmes san- itarium this afternoon. parOxy pain in the heart preceded death, the parox- yem probably resulting from a rupture of the heart as result of fatty degen eration.
 Judge Crisp came to Atlanta six weeks ago for treatment. He was then suffer- ing from case of malarial fever which had developed in his home at Amer1cus. He spent June, July and part of Au- gust in the mountains of North Caro- lima and Tenne, see and was greatly benefited, but the old tr ubIe developed again few weeks ago. There would have been, practically, no opposition to him for the senate. His death at this time complicates the situation and will lead to bitter fight for the sena- torship; perhaps other offices will be involved, too, but silver man will be sent.
 Funeral arrangements have not been completed, but to-day his body will lie in state. Tomorrow addresses will be delivered by Governor Atkinson and members of the Georgia congressional delegation.

THE Lordsburg Liberal says: "The Republican, committee ofGraham coun- ty accepted the resignation Of Burt Dunlap, who was nomlnated for the council. Mir. Dunlap told the commit tee h. had succeeded in getting married this summer and there was no necessity fDr his spending the winter in Phoenix looking for wife. The committee then placed Colonel Mike Leahy. of Fort Thomas, on the ticket. AS soon as Colonel Leahv was nominated he sold his stage line for $2.5O0, turned the money all into small bllIs and started out on an eIectioLeerine trip. That amount of money ought to secure his triumphant election"

Do Wages Rise with Prices

[Review of Reviews.l
 The returns for all industries in this country, as in England, show that wages advanced fully 50 per cent. dur- ing the period from 1860 to 1873, in which prices advanced about 15 per cent, and wages fell fully l5 per cent. during the period from 1873 to 1890, in which prlces fell 9 per cent. The rela- tive galns of the laborers were far greater during the period of expanding currency and rising prices under bimet- alIism than during the period of scarcer currency and falling prices under the gold standard.
 These statistios, moreover, give the wages of Iaborers when actually em- ployed. and the heavlest losses of la borers under the gold standard have come from the lack oi employment. This was especially true of the years of panic and depression from 1873 to 1879. With the rise of prices that followed the resumption of specie payments and passage of the Bland act there was a marked recovery in the rate of wages and still more marked recovery Tn the extent of employment. A similar pe- riod of relief came with the rise of prices under the sherman act of 1890. But only during the years of compara- lively steady or rising prices was labor fully employed ard prosperous. When ever prices fell th' panic or depression in the commercial world created in the labor world an army Of unemployed. These panics and depressions never came when prices were rising. Those W ho to-day are simul ultaneously predict ing that the free coinage of silver will cause the doubling prices and a com mercial panic have as little history as logic to support them A panic has always meant the inability of business men to meet their obligations without selling al loss. A panic never did occur and never can occur when prices are rising.

satisfaction to all citizens who may have to call upon him. Every voter who expects to make oul county second to none in the territory will vote for Greer.
 A. E. HENNINe,
 A popular citizen and COW man, of Nav aio, is the nominee for Treasurer.
 He is an honest, conservative man, and will take good care of the people s money; and as he is neither gambler nor dripker, in the accepted term. he may be considered safe man for that place. His election means no fraudu- lent accounts, ne difficiencies, no em. bezzlements of funds or moneys. He is an old time citizen of the county and ilke the other nominees, Is interested in frugal government. Every man who votes for Henning will cast his ballot for re form and econ omy, and will in time be pleased be- cause he cast his vote for HennIng.
 MT. Henning is not well known in the southern part of the county, but his personal friends speak of him in terms of praise, and we think no mistake has been made In nominating Henping for Treasurer.
 Both
 L. J. BROWN AND ELISHA AvERITT, Are wellknown citizens of the south ern part of the county. Both are sound on business propositions. Browns of ficiaI acts Tn the past are we'll known. and Averett will soon learn the duties of his office.
 In electing Bsown aud Averett mem- bers of the Board of Supervisors. with w. H. Gibbons already there, We may expect an economical and fair adminis- tration.
 With this trio, who can neither be cajoled by opponents nor coerced by the party lash. men whose interests are our interests, and whose prosperity de- pends upon their actions in the board, are reasonably safe.
 ALFRED RUIZ
 Is undoubtedly the best qualified man for District Attorney that We have in the county, and as his entire interests are in this county, we think he is the logical man for the office. As District Clerk, MT. Ruiz has made splendid record, and we expect the same thing will be the case when he is elected Dis trict Attorney.
 He is an indefatigable worker, neat and systematic. and his knowledge of the law and legal documents will rem der him a valuable aId in our county affairs. Be not deceived, but vote for Ruiz.
 The last name on the ticket is not the least, neither is he the least quali- fled, but his work throughout the entire county Is universally praised and ap- preciated. In giving your votes to
 E. R. STAFFORD, For Sur. eyor, you, citizens. will make no mistake. Look at the names on both tickets, compare them in every possible way discuss their qualifications, ask about their standing, socially, nor ally. etc., and when you have done so, We ara satisfied all good true Democrats and uDenameled Republicans will vote for the Democratic ticket.

HILO NEWS ITEMS.

Now that Pele has begun shaking
the Eeighboring country, a fresh
burst OF activity may be expected
in short while.
T. w. Rawlins, of Honolulu, is
in town. He is satisfied that Hilo
has a future, and it is not unlikely
he will enter business here as a
manufacturer of soap.
David Nape, school teacher in
Puma, has resigned and left for
Honolulu, where he has entered
the Hawaiian Government band.
&ape is very good musician, and
was formerly a member OF the
Royal Hawaiian Band.
The Waiakea mill has added
another improvement in the shape
of a revolving cane cutter. The
machine is somewhat similar to the
cane-shredder, and is manufactured
by Smith, of Glasgow, Scotland.
1t cuts the cane into small pieces,
and, by its revolving apparatus,
saves the labor of six men every
twenty-four hours.
Father Conrady, who was lately
in Hilo, and who was for eight
years the resident leper apostle ON
Molokai, has received letters from
friends in Hongkong which contain
graphic accounts of the misery and
deplorable condition of the leper
colony of Canton, China, where
he expects soon to reside. There
are large number of lepers in that

In letter received from Hilo it
was stated that the shooting was
the worst ever done by the Hilo
team.
The teams are anxious to shoot
off the deciding match as soon as
possible, but it is thought hardly
probable that they will be able to
do it before April 25th.
Following is what the Hilo Trib-
une has to say about the shoot:
after several days this match at
last came off on the afternoon of
Wednesday, March 4th. The wind
was contrary as possible and the
results were a poor shoot and a
poorer score. Captain H. C. Aus
tin scored the highest, 43. Only

territorial Forgery.
United States Commissioner Hea-
cock has given A. J. Smith a colu-
plete exoneration of the charge of
forgery preferred against him by
Cashier Burns of the Sub-Treasury,
says the San Francisco Bulletin of
recent date. Smith was arrested
for having, as alleged, forged the
name of another A. J. Smith to a
treasury draft for $1,S75 which he
had received through the mail from
the department at Washington.
At the preliminary examination
the defendant proved that he was
in the employment of the depart
ment and had sent in a claim for
services rendered. When the draft
arrived addressed to him, appar-
emily, he observed that it was not
for the amount he had demanded
and he made all due inquiry as to
whether there was any other A. J.
Smith for whom it might be in
tended. Failing to learn that there
was and acting on the advice of
several customs officials he went to
the Sub-Treasury, had the draft
cashed and signed his own name
to it. Commissioner Heacock
thought Smith had taken more
than ordinary care in the matter
and said he took pleasure in dis
missing the charge.
