to the sweat-stained masses that
greet him at every depot, we can
not avoid admiring him as sturdy
specimen Of our American man
hood.
Compare him with the gagged
individual who trennbles in his
mortgaged house lest Hanna may
forecl0se Compare him with that
unfortunate Napoleon who has al
ready met his Wellington and sur
rendered his convictions, and it is
plain to see which best represents
the principles Of the Declaration of
Independence.
Bryan is the spokesman of the
half-awakened producers, who form
nine-tenths of the population. He
and his associates have revived the
apostolic power of "casting out
devils" in the democratic party and
of raising the dead to life among
the republican rank and file.
They have given us at least real
issue instead of a sham one, and
though their remedy may seem in
adequate to progressive thinkers,
it is in the right direction and in
accordance with the peoples will.
During the last few years we have
been rapidly developing slave e1e-
ment in our population-a proper
tyless class, entirely dependent up
on the sale of their labor. No longer
does Jack hobnob with his master.
The rich and poor do not live in the
same quarter of the city. A second
secession has split our society into
two hostile elements, and it is
childish to howl "anarchist' at the
patriot who proclai1n!s the unwel-
come fact and seeks to weld the ma
ton into unity again by repeating
the laws that caused it to split
asunder.
America is the workingman's
"Paradise Lost" and it can never
be regained by passive obedience

mansions and live in rented tene-
ments themselves Our mechanics
construct electric lights and use
kerosene at home; they 1nanufact-

and die poor; they delve in danger
Gus coal mines and lack fuel in the
winter. Our farmers raise grain
and want for food, export cotton
and wool and lack clothing, sell
cattle and are without meat.
Our marvellous Inventions have
been monopolized so that, in spite

The Ballot.
w. E. P. FRENCH.

What do you think a vote is for?
Something to sell for dollar or more?
Something to cast as you're told to do?
Something to give to the wealthy few,
Who are only as one to ten OF you?
Don't rail at the rich, let your whining cease,
The crimes Of Our times lie at Labor's door;
For the rich have only vote apiece,
Till the poor sells them ore.
Who sells his vote is both fool and knave;
More, he is coward and thief and slave,
(Content as slave to live and die),
Deserter, traitor and thrlce-damned spy.
Fool, since he sells his right to think
For harlot'S wage or the price of drink;
Whereaf had he cat his j.; T4 }t' 1F5Ght
Knave, since he's false to the Nations
trust.
Coward, because he's afraid to thrust
With the ballots knife for Labor's cause,
But helps with his vote to make the laws
That bind his fellows in closer thral1,
Thief since he steals from the arsenal
OfLabOr it's best and keenest steel,
Deserts the ranks Of the comm on-weal,
And fawn-the cur-at the dollars heel,
Traitor to duty and hOnOr'S call;
Spy of the spoiler in Labor's hall!
Brand him with shame till he's under
ground,
What do you think vote is for?
TO demand, to comm and, not to implore,
So 1ething to use in your manhood's
might!
Something to cast for the cause Of right!
Something to handle with strong, clean
hands!
Something to win back your stolen lands!
Something to emphasize your demands!
Don't rail at the rich, let your winnings cease,
The crimes of our times lie at LabOr's door;
For the rich have only vote apiece
Till the poor man sells them more!
Then use the ballot and end your woes;
Vote for your friends and n OF for your foes;
Grapp1e your birthright fast to your souls;
VictOry's yours when you guard the polls
TO see that the count he fairly made,
TO see that the law shall be Obeyed;
Victory's yours when your not afraid
TO stand by Justice,
TO grasp the right,
TO change the proverb
Tonight makes might.
Victory's yours when you learn at last,
For what and for whom your votes to
cast;
Yours when the lesson you've mastered
well
That a ballots to use and not to sell;
Yours when you finally understand
That "Divided, we fall; united, stand'
Then stand tOgether-why longer wait?
And make THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE FATEi

IF the latest story of Maceo s killing is true he was the victim of the black est treachery on the part of Dr. Zertu- cha, and the great Spanish victory was simply butehery of handful of men lured into ambush by flag of truce. However severe g blow Maceo's death might be to the Cuban patriots, it is impossible that 8 people that has shown such fortitude and courage shall be overthrown by the loss of one man. There must be others among them ca. pablo of using his sword. The coward lp plot to murder the gallant leader should inspire his followers with the devotion to avenge his fall and punish his assassins. If the flag of truce was violated the Spanlards will lose what ever vestIge of sympathy has remained tO them

WAS FROM ARIZONA.
Mistake Made by the Denver
 BuncO Gang.

We find the following account of the
 adventure of a well-known citizen of Northern Arizona in a recent issue of
 the Rocky Mountain News:
 Bunco steerers made a mistake when
 they attempted to work H, J. Banner as
 sucker" MT. Banner arrived in the
 city Saturday and registered at the
 Oxford hotel. He has been resident of the West for twenty-five years and Is at present large cattle owner of Holbrook, Ariz. It was by no means the first visit of Mir. Banner to Denver, and he showed no alarm when he was aceosted by two men in front of the city hall on Larimer street. One of the men inquired how far It was across the bridge and the other volunteered the information that he was mining man of Montana, and was out taking in the sights of the city. The two strangers appeared to be pleased at meeting 6 brother of the mountain country in city where they said they had a very limited acquaintance. The new found brother was invited to room to look at some fine ore specimens. Arriving at room which bore in front the legend, Real Estate Ofice," the party found several men engaged in game of poker and the Arizona man was invited to take hand. He declined, but was urged at least to use up a supply of chips which were presented by the al- legged Montana miner. The game had proceeded only few minutes when it was discovered that Ramer ought to put up $39 in cash.
 "Then thought it was time to show my hand" remarked the visitor yester- day. in relating his experience. "I de- clared that knew from the first what they were roping me into and I posi- lively declined to pay cent. It looked for several minutes as though there was going to be trouble. but I announ- ced that 1 would clean t the whole gang if any man dared to raise hand against me. got out of the room and they didn do me up either. It is disgrace to the city for such characters to be permitted to be at large upon the streetsn

A Splendid Showing.

lGaZeLte.J
 The best law passed by the Eight eenth legislature is one that was most opposed at the time-the law creating the Board of Control. The books show that in the management of the territo- rial prison alone there has been g saw ing of nearly $19,OOO in the past two years. The cost of running the prison now with about 190 inmates is less than it was under the old system with 15O prisoners.
 Tue officers of the board are busy closing their books for tho current year and great saving will be shown in all departments, especially will there be 6 reduction ID the cost of the asylum.
 Formerly great item of expense was the mileage and per diem of the various boards. which has been practically wiped out by the creation of the Board Of Control. The Nineteenth legislature can still further reduce the expenses of the territory by abolishing some of the numerous boards that are now items of expense and by placing all of the pub lie institutions under the charge of the Board of Control.
 A good worklug business Board of Control can manage all the institutions with no additional expense for mileage and per diem, besides efecting great saving ill the cost of running the insti- tntIOn6

Some Long Marks to His Credit,

Review of Reviews
 It is MT. Cleveland again who, with his Secretary of State, MT. Olney, wins the chief honor for the arrangements which now insure not only present peace, but the promise of permanent confidence and good understanding be. tween England and the United States. Furthermore, it is to Mr. Cleveland s policy that we must attribute the inter- esting fact that for the first time in a long period the presidential campaign has been fought out on both sides with almost total freedom from the impel- ling motive of the victor's spells. Some scores of thousands of federal offices, with their honors and emoluments, han in former campaigns furnished the chef incentive to the bribery and the frauds that were so extensively perpe- trated. But MT. Cleveland has within the past two years so widely extended the sphere within which the civil serv- ice law protects the holders of places in the public employ. that the greed for spells was almost eliminated from the recent contest. With the triumph of the merit system h the domain oi the national service, and with it's steady pragress in the services of the States and municipalities, the cause of honest and efficient government will have made almost immeaeureabie progress

 Farmers of the Graham valley are urged by the Guardian of Stafford to get together for the purpose of forming an agricultural association, and az before said in these columns. it would be one of the best things the agricultural class could do to assist themselves in making the farm more interesting and profit able. Now we would suggest they do not wait to have the united support of the whole valley before making move, because if they wait on this. an asso- citation will never be formed. A dozen men can start the ball rolling, and the others will come in due time. In Cali fornia, one of the grandest states in the Union, they have an association in good working order now after an effort of five years duration. It takes time to mak a grand success of these things, from point of numbers, but the beginning must be made some time, and right now is the opportune time for our Graham friends

OLIVER AND PAYNE.
Detective and Newspaper Man
 Arrest Two Criminals.

| Yuma Sentinel1
 J. s. Oliver. 6 detective of Los Ange les. and ]. F. Payne, an attache of the Los Angeles Times, arrived here last Saturday evening from the above city On their way here they left the train al Ogllby the night before, and securing the services of Deputy Sheriff Burke at Hedges. the party started to arrest a man by the name of Woodbury, who was few miles from Ogilby on 8 pros pecting tour.
 Two miles south of Glamis the posse caught up with Woodbury. Burke. who is acquainted with Woodbury, asked for drink of water. As Woodbury handed over the canteen, Detective Ol- iuer told him he had a warrant for his arrest, and produced the document and read it. Then Woodbury took it and read it. Well, it's all wrong; Pm not guilty" he said, A search of the wagon showed that besides grub aud 8 pros pecting outfit, Woodbury had a rife, shotgun and three pocket-knives.
 Woodbury's companion at this june. ture came up, having been driving bur los some distance to one side of the wagon. In answer to questions asked by the officers he ssid he had been talk en up by Woodbury as a companion He was allowed to start for Chino with Woodbury's rig, and the party pro- ceeded to the flag station, where the south-bound train was fl 1agged and Woodbury was brought to this city and locked up.
 During the evening the reporter of the Times occupied his time writing long and sensational articles about the capture of Woodbury to the San Fran cisco Chronicle and his paper. Wood- bury IS charged with the murder of H. Holman, prospector of Chino, Cal., in October, 1893. The accused man is a nephew of Richard Gird, original own CT of the great Chino ranch.
 Sunday afternoon the detective and Payne secured horses of Speese and VOAt IO AACaOnOS WAOAC LnCy AIIc6ICQ Q man by the name of Al Wright, the companion of Woodbury on his pros- pecting trip until this place was reach ed, when they dissolved partnership. He is said to be an accoWplice of Wood bury. He was arrested and brought here Moneay, and the Times man filled up the columns of that sheet with con siderable more college "hash" and ten- derfoot ideas of bad men and hardships endured.
 Woodbury is small and inoffensive looking man, and does not look as if he had the courage to kill 8 chicken, let alone being the cold-blCoded villain the Times representative would make him out to be.
 The prisoners were taken to San Der nardino, Cal, Tuesday and lodged in jail to await the action of the grand jury.

NEEDS A HACKER.

 Lick Weyler.

A United Press dispatch from Bea- trice, Nebraska, says: General L. w. Colby. attorney general during Presi- dent Harrison's administration and for many years well-known in the State of Nebraska as National Guardsmen, takes an advanced position on the Gu ban troubles and the alleged assassin. ation of Maceo. He sad to-day: "I have been studying the situation and conditions down there closely, and am satisfied that with 10000 men, and by that l mean American men, could whip Weyler and his Spanish soldiers, and if could get some wealthy Ameri- can to back me Tn it would do it. The manner in which the war against the Cuban patriots has been conducted IS outrageous and if we had 8 President with an atom of patriotic blood in his veins it would not have been permitted to continue this long.''
