A RIGHTEOUS VETO.

The president has vetoed the Mur- phy school land bill. In so doing he has made friends in Arizona that he did not before possess.
 The bill was regarded as one of the most vicious ever passed by congress and the action of the president is to be commended in placing his veto upon it.
 The passage of this bill by Murphy made his reelection difficult, and probably accounts for his declin- ing to be a candidate again. Now that the bill has been vetoed there will be rejoicing in many homes in Arizona where there has been sorrow since its DaSsage.

MURPHY NOT A CANDIDATE.


 N. 0. Murphy declines to be a can didate for reelection as delegate to congress and with this announcement, of course, opposition to him must cease It is not to N. 1O. Murphy, private citizen, that the people of Arizona ob- ject; and if MT. Murphy is ready to quit, so is The Republican and others who have opposed him in a public ca- pacity only.
 To Private Citizen N. O. Murphy The Republican extends greeting. To Private Citizen N. o. Murphy it offers dts cooperation and sympathy in any enterprise which may be calculated to upbuild the territory of Arizona.
 While Congressman Murphy or Governor Murphy may be all wrong, Private Citizen Murphy is all right, and in that capacity no man will have a better friend than MT. Murphy will have in The Republican.
 If, therefore, A1r Murphy is sincere h the statement that he will retire from public life, his statement shou,d be accepted in the spirit in which it is made and the mantle of charity should cover his misdeeds of the past
 We are all human and liable to err and to admit our weakness is manly MT Murphy has done all that he can do under. the circumstances, and his mistakes should be forgotten as soon as possible. He declines to be can. didate for reelection more car we ask? 5t. ,, 1>r
 It now devolves upon the people te elect a successor to MT.

He has done all that he cal do. and for his admission of failure h, is entitled to credit.
 From this time on as a private citi zen MT. Murphy will have no bette friend than The Republican.

SHALL WYE IDLY LOOK ON?

From the very outset of the uprising in Cuba the sympathy of the people of the United States has been very largely with them on the broad ground of their effort to throw off the yoke of monarchy. But while the power of Spain was confined to legitimate meth eds of repression and the insurgents were without the prestige of a fixed place of government and known or ganization for civil purposes, there was no precedent in the recognized rules of international interference to warrant any sort of interference what ever.
 All this is changed now, however

The entering wedge of a fatal com plaint is often slight cold, which a dose or two of Ayers Cherry Pectoral might have cured at the commence ment. Therefore, it is advisable to have this prompt and sure remedy al- ways at hand to meet an emergency.

and there is a decided call for the seri- ous attention of this government to the conditions which exist today.
 The government of Spain has seen fit to supplant the greatest general there Joy the most inhuman wretch known in modern history.
 If the war canno. be brought to a close by means recognized as fair it must be accomplished by means which every consideration of humanity will denounce as foul. In his proclama- tions issued on taking command Gen. eral Weyler plainly made provision for repetition of the mode Of warfare which distinguished his former period of command on the island. The ac- counts of some of the unspeakable in humanities which are laid at his door by responsible authorities and eye witnesses, are sufficiently revolt ing to consign the perpetrator to a perdition deeper than that yawning before the Turk for his atrocities in Armenia. And if entitled to such con- demnation, what should be said of the government that would send him back fo II Nf 1,i fo thirsty revelries to renew the satur- nalia of lust and red-handed murder
 The people of this country are sure that the government of Europe had a duty to perform in the case of bleed ing Armenia, which duty was shame fully betrayed. How about the duty of the most humane and justice loving country on earth in the present case If it is not that such recognition shall be given the Cubans as shall afford them protection from the fate that is lowering over them-men, women and children alike-then there is no re- sponsibility of one towards another that is worth the mention.
 Congress should not wait a day fo1 any further light upon the subject. Il is not the time for profitless talk nol for idle demonstrations. Make il plain to the Spanish government that American interests on the island ot Cuba are to be protected with all the resources at the command of the peo. pie, and that the insurgents are rec. ognized as belligerents with all the rights of any other people who have taken up arms in body to free them selves from oppression. That is tht way that our own interests there should be protected and the manner il which the Cuban cause should bs given recognition. If there should b, a disposition to ignore the warning then let the independence of the Gu bans be recognized without delay and settle the question on that line cost what it may.
