SHERMAN'S MEMORY.

Many men have reached prominence
by being able to remember names and
faces. But there are many really great
men who are disliked because they can
not remember names and faces. the
Chicago Record classes John Sherman
among the latter. 1t is stated that Sec
rotary Sherman is mairing himself talk
Ell about a great deal Dy his inability 10
recognize his former colleagues when
they call to see him. The dignity of two
distinguished members of the United
States senate sustained severe shock
during the last few days, when they
called upon Secretary Sherman and
were obliged to introduce themselves to
him. Mr. Babcock, who has served as
Mr. Sherman's secretary for twenty
five years, usually whispers the name
of the caller in the ear of his chief when
he gets an opportunity to do so, but
when Mr.. Sherman has no prompter
he makes a mess of il. He never does
know the members of the diplomatic
corps apart, and when they are intro
duced to him he cannot pronounce their
names. 1t is quite painful on diplomat
ic day 10 see him struggle with the
tongue tangling titles of the ambassa-
doris and ministers from abroad. 1t Is
even whispered that the venerable SEN
ator did not recognize one of his col
lea CUES in the cabinet when they met at
the residence of friend the other day,
but this is an old failing of his.

TALMAGE BEGGING

The Rev. r. De Witt Talmase. d. D..
visits Topeka, where he delivers an ad-
dress in the interest of the starving Of
India. The Journal opens out in half
column of well deserved criticism of
the man and his mission. which any one
who knows Talmage is well assured is
not an unselfish one. Talmase comes in
somewhere for proportional benefits
without doubt. He shouldn't be given
a cent by Kansas. There Is not a west
ern community but that for two or
three years past has had greater num-
Der of real deserving objects of charity
than such community could well take
care Of. and charity begins at home.'
Even if that were not true. and leaving
out OF the question the fact that the
people of India are the subjects of the
most affluent empire on The globe. there
have been enough Of disasters by food
and storm in the west in the past month
whose victims have a more direct clsim
upon those able to give.

Dental friend of the president, a recog-
nized supporter of his policies, and it is
not at all likely that Grosvenor would
run counter TO the wishes of his friend.
What Grosvenor is after is an exposure
of the narrowness Of Cleveland. 1t may
be that he even does not expect the re-
peal of the law. but simply its modifi-
cation. One thing is certain, and that
is its discussion will reveal its incon-
sistencies not only, but that its spirit
was warped and twisted by Cleveland
in the interest of favorites whom he
sought to keep in place at the expense
of the Republican party. Cleveland
simply annulled the spirit of the law
by making it a system Of spoils, the
very thing which its enactment was in
tended to defeat The Grosvenor bill
punctures CleveIand's hypocritical pre-
tense not only, but subjects an army OF
his appointees TO civil service examin-
alton, which they were not subjected to

A SYSTEM OF SPOILS.

Our Democratic contemporaries keep
harping away over Cleveland's civil
service reform record. Civil service re-
form, as interpreted and administered
by the late lamented higher. was sim
ply civil service fraud. His high hog
gishness in such connection never gave
the public interest moments thought.
Nothing short of partisan perversity
could have Influenced him to put the
clamps on upwards of ten thousand
places which the civil service law d.

all this whine to the effect that PreSi-
dent Mckinley cannot afford TO undo
the good work of Grover is simple rot.

HIS FRIENDS SORRY.
Bryan's Visit to Ohio is Driving Gold
Democrats to Hanna.

A special from Washington, says:
Advices received in Washington from
Ohio today seem to indicate that the
mem bers of the democratic state cen
trial committee have made a great
mistake in inviting William ]. Bryan
to take the stump in the interest OF
their state ticket aud legislative can
didates. Bryan's plan will be to force
the silver issue to the front and this, il
is said, will mean the loss of all OF the
sound money democratic votes in the
state. For this reason there seem ms to
be little hope of retiring Mark Hanna
to private life at the end of his present
term.
A special from Cincinnati, says:
The political campaign in Ohio set out
with the lines strongly drawn on the
national issues of the gold standard
and the free and unlimited coinage Of
silver at 16 to l. Later when the repub-
licans announced Mark Hanna for the
senate the democrats turned all their
guns on him. Now the silver fight is
to be resumed with w. j. Bryan Is
chief speaker.
The real objective point was the
election of a legislature which will
choose United States senator.

Bryan's Coming Visit to Ohio.

From the tincinnati Commercial-Tribune
We will welcome Mr.. Bryan. The
farmers will welcome him, aud will
show him the mortgages which they
have bsen able to cancel by selling
their wheat at from soc. to ST. a
bushel, under the gold standard, while
the value of the metal in silver dol
lar has fallen TO 4Oc. The business
men will welcome him, and will show
him the busy factories which repub-
lican prosperity and good times have
enab. ed them to reopen. The working
men in Cincinnati, COlum bus, Toledo,
Dayton, Springfield, Cleveland and
every other city of the state will well
come him, and will tell him that after
William Mckinley went to the White
House they had no trouble in getting
work again.
What will be Ohio's answer to
Bryan's appeal that we elect free sill
yer candidates, in order to help him
gain the popocratic nomination in 1900?
Ohio Will answer him now as she did
a year ago. The people of Ohio will
answer him by rallying to the support
of their financial honor and their bust
ness interes s, which he seeks to
destroy, and on November 2 they will
bury him and his free silver satellites
by a majority of 1000 for sound
money and honest government.

THE PLATFORM.

1--WE ask all good citizents whether
democrats or populists, to consider
that this is not Co mpaign of nation d !
issues, but one solely of municipal gov
ernment."
The above is an extract from the re-
publican (!) platform upon which Col.
Campbell was elected mayor by the
democratic boss, the water company
and the gamblers. They prevented q
nomination by the democratic machine
and turned all its force to the assist
auce of Campbell and received their sew
eral rewards for so doing.
The fact that Mr.. Campbell,a repub-
licau, was mayor of city in t. xas,
was used by himself aud friends to give
him standing in republican circles
away from here ard through his pc
lice force and O her administration

Arizona Mines,

In its mining number the Los An
geles Times says concerning Arlzona's
mineral interests:
1t does not sem that Arizona can
ever become known as lead prOduc-
ing country, although lead ores are of
common occurrence in the silver and
some gold mines. The five great cop
per centers of the territory are Bisbee,
Longfellow, Morenci, Gle be aud Jer-
ONE. These, together, produced in
1896, As 600, 900 pounds of copper.
OF osher ores the most conspicuous is
manganese, but its long distance fl ON
market makes it valueless. Zinc is
only found as a sulphide, and cost of
transportation makes it also valueless.
Sulphide of anthony, quicksilver,
vandium and molly deknum are a so
found. One large deposit of magani-
ferrous iron ore has been found in
Mohave county. Turquoise has been
found in two localities. Mexican onyx
in large beds is found in Big Bug
creek, Yavapai county, ard in Cave
creek, Maricopa county. Preparations
for working the former deposit, which
is said to be very fine, are now under
way. Upon the Squaw peak, in the
Verde range, lithograph stone of good
quality is found, though not equal to
the Bavariau stone. In the same place
pictured stone is found, capable of
taking a high polish. Sand stones of
unsurpassed quality are quarried at
Flagstaff.

THOSE who would take comfort from
the fact that Bryan is speaking to large
crowds in Ohio, should remember that
he spoke to large crowds there last
fall. They heard his prophecies then
and took chances that he was wrong.
Time has proved that he was wrong
then and now they will go and near his
explanation but will go TO the poles
and vote to continue the good times by
