Arizona republican., 1896-07-03

senate committee that had charge of bill was when the president approved it. Now it is law and there appears D be several hottentots in the law. We wonder why the president didn't veto the bill. An! there is a story in connection ~-:th the whole business which Gie Star v-ill unfold, and which vii startie some individuals who think the "-re rerfcatly safe. This much the roop'e c9- -ely upon, that is not one dollar Of tho fraudulent bonds will be ps'' bF- inc taxpayers of the territory. Tie total amount of which, including iatsrea., will reach oyer s1,G00,000.
 No5a!~- Videt.e: The financial song oe our Republican contemporaries is set to d'%rrcnt music now from what t --"~ before the meet at St. Louis. Now the burden Of their lay is interna- tio"aI agreement on the silver ques- tion
 Tucson Star: It now appears that Hon. Tom Fitch is the coming candi- date for delegate to congress on the Republican ticket. Any one who thinks Fitch won't be a strong candi- date, don't understand the situation, for he is popular among the mining population and is admired by members of the Latter Day Saints as is no other citizen in the territory.
 
 Tucson Citizen: The Citizen has nothing to cover up in it's position. Nothing to deny. It maint tains it's ad- herence to free silver as strongly as ever and is still Republican to the core. If some member of. the Citizen gang is not singled out for cabinet posi- tion with the incoming administration it will be "love's labor lost," and then you will hear our sad vail.

 Wilcox News: In it's power for goo6 or evil the press of the country is greater than any other teacher of the people. True, there are newspapers that have little influence, while there are others which possess more thar thousands of these. But take them al together the press of the country car and does, whenever it tries to do sc un1tedly, rule the country. With thi: power comes responsibility and if tht newspapers of the country choose the, can prevent the dreaded suspension O business which is ewfth patriotism, Z love of the truth and of the countr, they can and will do it. And wha an opportunity is now afforded to tn, editors of newspapers to do an essentia service to the people which they serve and who support them. Country should rise above party and this should be considered, while we honestly SUD port those political principles whicf , appear to us to be right.
 Tucson Star: It is hinted that tn. goldbugs are setting up a job on tn, silver bugs.
 T Albuquerque Citizen: The St. Loui convention made no mistake when i nominated Garrett A. Hobart for vice president. He is man of wide bus iness experience and possesses rare ex : ecutive ability. He is in no sense politician, but he is just such a man O ) ana1rs as is needed to preside over th senate.
 Albuquerque Democrat: It woul, seem to be self-evident truth tha when the coinage of a metal is ire and unlimited there can be no longe any difference in value between a cer
 tain weight of metal whether in tn s shape of bullion or coin. If the bull lion is stamped and made into coi, ; free of all expense to any one who ma, present it at the mint, a quantity o
 metal in the form of bullion must hay
 equal value with the same quantity o y metal in the shape of coin.
 Los Angeles Record: Silver senti \ ment is very strong in the Unite
 States, but sanguine as they may be
 come if the silver men of all partie
 unite, still, they had best prepare fo
 a Sore disappointment. Major Mc e1 k1pley is so splendid a man all arorn
