of rack, thumbscrew, deceit,
prison cell, secret persecution,
ETC.. Now while a good many
populists may be, forgetful of
their dollar Contribution, we
must Say they never subject US
to the thum bscrew, etc. Not
even Donnelly himself, brethren.
Populists have more humanity
about them. They are men who
live in this age of progress.
Not like yonr benighted Robber
Barons of middle age brutality.
Of course this Donnelly
bossim is simply a bugaboo to
prevent if possible a general
stampede into the Peoples Party.
Donnelly has been at the head of
this movement for years aud is
regarded for what he is worth no
more, no less. We remem Der in
the last State Convention Donnel-
ly proposed certain plank in
our platform in the committee.
Itso happened that the committee
did not see it that way, and voted
it down. Did Donnelly kick?
Oh no! He asks no more respect
for his views than any other
member. Then again in the
convention Donnelly had a certain
man that he wanted nominated
for State Auditor. He made a
speech on the platform in favor
Of the nomination. What did
the convention do? Nominate,
Mr.. Donnelly's candidate as per
order of the boss, as you say.
Not quite. That convention at
least, and it is the only state con
vention of the party that we
have attended, was a serious and
capable deliberative body, and
in severe contrast to an old party
Doodle bought machine called a
convention. The convention in
effect told Mr.. Donnelly we are
glad to hear you, we are glad to
listen to your suggestions, but
we don't see it the way you do.
And the convention acted against
Mr.. Donnelly's advice. That
proved to US that all this talk
about Donnelly being a boss in
the Peoples Parry Of Minnesota
is all rot, the veriest rot. The
Peoples Party is too big and toe
intelligent to be bossed by one OF
a dozen men, be he OF they ter
times as powerful as Donnelly
The Pc ,pIes Party has not got tt
the stage in it's career that it has
developed bosses. That viii
come when we get into power
and have spoils to divide. Their
we shall no doubt get our bosses
like all old parties.- until then this
talk about bosses in the Peoples
Party is all moonshine. Blu

A BRYAN UTl FRANCE.

"Any legislation which lessens the worlds stock of standard money in- creases the exchangeable value of the dollar; therefore the crusade against sil- yer must inevitably raise the purchasing power of money, and lower the money value of all other forms of property. Our opponents sometimes admit that it was mistake to demonetize silver, but insist that we should submit 10 present conditions rather than to return to the bimetallic system. They err in suppos- ing t. at we have reached the end of the evil results of a gold standard we have not reached the end. The injury is a continu ng one, and no person can say how long the world is to suffer from an attempt to make gold the only standard money. The same influences which are now operating to destroy silver in the United States will, if successful here, be turned against other silver-using coun- tries, and each new convert to the gold standard will add to the general distress. So long as the scramble for gold contln- ues, prices must fall, and q general fall in prices is but another definition of hard times"

ABSOLUTELY PURE

Another campaign lie was nailed by Bryan yesterday in his great speech. A fake cablegram from London pretends that India is preparing to assist the Democratic party Tn the election of Bryan in the hope of dumping vessel loads of silver into our hints. There are many reasons why this will not be done. India has S950, ,000, 900 in money. all silver, coined at 15 to l, so that eight cents would be lost on each dol lar recoined. The population of InG:: is about 0O,O000OO, making but s per capita, not enough for their own busi- ness, and they mine no silver. The en- tire British empire does not mine a half million dollars in silver a year. India is sink for silver, constant purchaser, and will be for all time to come. But suppose each and every cit- izen of India dId bring his s in silver to the United States, have It coined into American money, what would they do with it ? They would not give it to us. They would, however, buy products with it. and we in turn would buy some- thing they produce, making commerce. If India wants to give us her liver, for Gods sake let us take it and thank the poor heather for their generosity. As the world needs our silver and we can dispose of It in England, Europe and China. thus making our money all equal Is to 1.-Gazette.

BEFORE Bryan went east to deliver the notification oration, the gold organs, re- publican and democratic, proclaimed that the silver candidate was coming with his false loglc clothed in deceptive oratory to inflame the masses and incite rebellion. Bryan's address was void of all oratory, and was composed Of sound, sensible, unrefutable arguments. In- stead of attempting to answer the argu- ments, for which no doubt the gold or gans were unprepared, they simply de- clared the address wearisome and in- sipid. Just now Bryan is doing little campaign speaking, and the oratory for which he is famous, is again feature of his address. Upon the resumption Of his old-time style, the gold pack begin immediately to set up their former howl of incendIarism and anarchism.

ARIZONA's GOVERNOR.
He Says the Territory is in a
 Prosperous Condition.

portIy, dignifed gentleman, dress ed in a blue business suit and wearing grey Stetson hat, says the Los Anee- les Express, was seated in the lobby, of the Hollenbeck Hotel thls morning. There was something in his appearonce that attracted the attention of every one who passed him.
 The gentleman was Hon. B. J. Franklin, the present governor of Ari- zona, who a few morths ago succeeded Louis c. Hughes, who vacated his pos sition as chief executive of the terri tory.
 Governor Franklin is very pleasant gentleman, and resided in Los Ange- les some months previous to taking up hls residence in Arizona three years ago. He has much faith in the future of the territory.
 ''We are enjoying unprecedented prosperity" said the governor. "We have bright, intelligent, progressive class of people and the territory cannot be kept from coming to the front. Statehood would be great benefit to us. We ought to be admitted next year no matter what party is the suc- cessful in the great political struggle that is now going on. You see the ter ritorios from a plank in the platform of both of the great parties.
 "Our cattle interests are in excel lent condition. We Lave shipped out 228, ,0C0 head Of cattle since the first of the year, and the average price received was SIP head. This is not a bad showing Is it?
 Large quantities of gold and silver are being taken frOu our mountains. The territory will produce more copper thls year than ever beforein in her history. It will not be long until Arizona pro- duces more copper than any other ter ritory or state in the union.
 Many people think We haveno agri- cultural lands. That is mistake. Our agricultural area sgreat9r than that of any two of the New England States. The time is not far distant when the Salt river valley and Gila river valley each will form one great garden.
 "The various pubic institutions are in most fourishi condition, partlc- ularly the university at Tucson and the penltentiary at Yuma. The latter in- stitutlon is under the charge of Michael Nuge who makes a model superin- tendent
 ''Our public schools will equal those in any of the western states. We have the best teachers that money can se- cure.
 "Take it all in all, Arizona is right up to date, and will before long be among the first of the states of the west"
 Governor Franklin is accompanied by J. F. Fitzgerald. a prominent business man of Solomonville, and Ben. Craw- ford Collector of Internal Revenue for Arizona.

without qualm the stories which are so often told about the hairbreadth es- capes and remarkable adventures with these reptiles. The truth is, that they do not possess sufficient courage-the alligators, I mean-to attack q mouse unless it was chained to the bank and couldn't show fight. 1 remember crcss- ing a stream in the Vermillion country a number of years before tho craze for alligator hides had struck the country. 1 entered skiff, and, when about half way over. my dog, which 1 had forgot ten, came bounding after me, and leap. ing into the water began to swim across after the boat. Almost immediately several alligators, lying with the tips of their noses above the surface, began to move after the dog and soon came with in few feet of the animal. He realized that he was being chased, and proceed ed to turn the tables by chasing them,
 gators, but they got out Of the way. Well, the dog and the sanrians kept up this performance until the former lad crossed the stream. The alligators seemed to be afraid to come within bit ing distance, although it would have been impossible for the dog to have in- jured them They were simply afraid, that's all, and it is always the way with them. I have frequently swam after an alligator myself, and he would in- variably turn tail and get out of sight in a hurry. Courage They have no more than a goat"

IN the matter of the selection of can- didates for members of the Board of Supervisors, we would recommend that the coming Democratic county conven- ton to secure the very best men. The county will need very cool, business like methods in transacting public af- fairs for the coming few years. In fact, we want continuance of the kind of an administration We have had the past two years. There are plenty of Demo crats in Apache county who will fill the bill. Besides the present members of the board, We might mention Hugh Lynch, of Navajo Springs; J. B. Patter- son, of St. Johns; Elam Cheney, of Concho and w. F. Lesueur, of Spring ery;lla

What Arizona wants in congress is a citizen who can and vii. do something for the Territory. A citizen who has some interest in the welfare of the peo- pie of the Territory. A citizen who can command the respect of the respectable people of the capital. A citizen whose favorite resort IS not the gambling dens saloons and dissipating clubs, but who can be found among self-respecting people and among the self-respecting members of congress, and commands the respect of the federal administra- tion and departmental officers. And above all citizen who will measure up to at least the shoulders of the majority of the United States senators, if we are to expect Arizona's admission to state- hood. Any other kind of man nomi- mated by any of the parties of Ar1zona will have to stay at home, for the peo- pie don't propose to be fooled by windy prOmiSes.-Star.

SANTA TERESA.
She Heard Voices and Became
 a Healer.

County Clerk Baca, of Socorro, N. M.. has been calling on Teresa. The Ad- vertiser says: s
 Mr. Baca found Senorita Teresa to be perhaps 2 rears of age, with a some what careworn appearance. Her face IS sad, her eyes aIe bright and lustrous, and while she is looking at one she seems to be looking through him and at something beyond. When she gives a greeting one can detect no change in her countenance except that the eyes become little more animated; but she places her hand in that of her vis- itor he feels vibration from it. Her complexion IS clear light olive, and her voice is soft and pleasant.
 When asked If she knew anything about the revolutionary outbreak at No- gales she replied that she knew nothing beyond what friends had told her and what appeared in the dispatches.
 "The information in the telegrams to the effect that these people are my fol- lowers may be correct so far as it may be interpreted that they love me, but no farther" she said. My mission is not to create trouble. love all my people and will devote my life upon earth, so long as God shall will it so, to alleviate the suffering among God s children, for only such are we. If the men who at- tackled Nogales use my name it is for the purpose of decelving the Mexican government and not because l have sanctioned anything ofthe kind. There was much feeling against the govern ment in my native village of Cabora, in Sonora, because the government ordered my deportation. but 1 told them God only was my protector. and they must not be angry"
 When asked if she approved of rev olutionory movement against the Mex ican government, if one now existed. she replied that revolutions were man. Hesitation of Gods will, for He had in- stilled into the people the spirit ofresis- tance of oppression, but that she had gwen no special thought to the upris ing in Sonora. having no thoroughly trustworthy information concerning it,
 The senorita then told of how. when hut child, she began to hear voices directing her to relieve the suffering of her neighbors. They were voices as in dreams. she explained. In actual dreams she continued, distant lands were spread out before her and signs and strange writings were shown and when a questi Il arose In her mind concern ing any of them the answer came speed. fly and proved true.
 Intuition Santa Teresa calls Gods will, and stys she invariably acts as her intuition directs, no matter what the consequences from a worldl" standpoint may appear to be- She is emphatic in the belief that one who acts SO and has faiCh in God is capable of performing prodigles.
 She is Tn the company of her father. and maintains seven little orphan chit- dren. She accepts no money from any one. Her reputation as curer of the ills of hu5 anity has suffered on several occasions. though there are many we'll known persons in Fl Paso who testify that she has great powers as a healer. Her standing with the Mexican people IS that of saint endowed with lniracu- lous qualities, and t!iey offer innumer- able evidences of her right to their esteem.

INVERTEBRATES AND WIVES.

New York Telegram If sweethearts were sweethearts always, Wh. ther as maid or wife, No drop would he half so pleasant In the mingled draught of life But the sweetheart has smiles and blushes When the wife has frowns and signs, And the wife's have a wrathful glitter For the glow oi the sweethearrs eyes.
