 VERB LOSS.
He is Robbed Of One Hundred Dollars in Cash and
 Checks-No Clue to
the Robber.

Saturday night, Mir. Ed r. Roseu- berg, the cigar and news dealer, suffered a severe loss, and today feels very sore.
 Saturday night, just before clos ing his place of business, he took what money and checks he had, amounting to about $100, and placed it in his pocket book, and the book he placed in his pocket. He then repaired to his room at Hotel J'ru- lock and retired,
 Sunday morning, after dressing, he discovered that his pocket book and it's contents were gone, and as yet have not been heard of.
 MT. Rosenberg does not know whether he was robbed before he reached the hotel or whether the thief entered his room and flched his cash.
 The loss, considering the times, is a severe one.

WAsHINGToN, Aug. 7.-Eyery po- litical leader in this city has his eye directed toward Ohio and Maryland. In those two States the coming Senatorial and Guberatorial cleo tions are to take place. In both States the bolting Democrat expect to assist the Republicans in the bat tic of ballots, and the Rads are more than willing that this should be. The Ohio campaign will be especially close. John R. McLain has large and popular backing He is a cool, elear-deaded man, with a vast amount of experience in the art of campaigning. Thus far both par: ties have announced a brilliant ar ray of orators, and the contest will be waged with great spirit.
 By the end Of September it will be an easy matter to tell what has been accomplished, and which side stands the favored chance. Among the spel-binders who will take the State Eby storm William Jennings Bryan will be the most important. Mark Hanna will also stump the State in his own behalf, and will be assisted in his work by Tom Reed and the President himself. Secre- tary Sherman has expressed de. termination to enter the campaign. senatar Foraker is already out, and will be actively identified in the movement.

Mir, Murphy EmPhstieaily Connrn~ the Journal Miners Denial of his Aetug
 Candidate for Governor.

Our contemporary has bean wsg- ing relentless and unjust warfare on Hou. x. O. Murphy, on the as sumption that he is candidate for governor. despite the fact that the JoURNAL-MINER has repeatedly de- nied the assertion. The following telegram received this afternoon is self explanatory and should settle the question for all time:
 WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-- J. (. Mar tin. T authorize you to brand as an unqualified falsehood the state ment of the Courier" that I am seeking to be appointed governor, or that 1 have solicited the endorse ment of any man for myself for that office. N. O. MURPHY.

and that all the rest of the craft be made to do obeisance 10 him and walk in the path he prepares. There are just about two or three ot .his kind in this territory, if they are to be the judges, and certainly on" of them should be given the job.
 The editor of the Jerome Re porter, who is also editor of so- called educational paper, teacher of a public school aud long range legislative lobbyist, has been doing considerable snarllng of late through his first named paper in regard to the county printing of YavApai county. Mr. Joscelyn put iu B bid for some printing year ago. which. if lac had secured it, he would have been compelled to send outside of the county to have had it done. IL may be that his failure to secure 1t has something ,O do with his pTeSea. snaps and snsris, or it may be that he is just giving vent to his natural disposition. In his last issue of his paper he says: "rhe county is paying nearly, if not quite, double the prices for county printing and advertising taat would be paid to either of the Prescott papers by any business man lu the county for the same work As the JOURNAL MINER has done the county printing for the past two years, 1t is able to brand such au assertion as absolutely false. The work is con- tracted for in lump sum for the year. The delinquent tax list, sst with all abbreYiations possible, and set in solid space, has each Yesr amounted, al legal rates, to from two-thirds to three-fourths oi the entire amount paid for all tho print ing for the year. Were it set Ep as the law provides for legal adveJtls- ing, and paid for at legal rates, It would amount to considerably more than the amount cf the years con- tract It is a fact, too. that counties much smaller than Yavapai have paid more for the publication of their delinquent list than this coun- ty pays for all its printing. In ad- dition to the delinquent tax list covering nearly the entire amount of the years contract, the work performed during one quarter of last year charged for at regular commer- cial rates, amounted to more than the amount received during the quarter, and commercial rates charged by this office are very much less than prices charged by Mir.

 Bremen BaFtoo was the next wit ness, but he told sub. ;agtially the same story, except that he said when the robber ordered him oI the en- zine. he was told to hurry up, and the robber emphasized his remark by shooting twice towards his feet. and said. "lf you don't hurry up, l will shoot oG your heels" This wit ness cut the train iu two, and was m the act of doing so when Express . Messenger Summers shot the other robber. When Summers shot, the robbeT was standing on the steps of the rear platform of the express ear; as the shot rang out, the Tobber ' threw up both hands and fell to the gcound. Several sticks of dynamite, a revolver and a Winchester were found on him. The witness was not present at the robbery of the mail ear, as he failed io get on the car when u pulled out.

YUMA COUNTY.

4 white nan first set foot On what is haow Yhma County in I'll. It IS the southwest division of the Territory, and G9ne of the four original counties of the Ter '-itcry. Many great reclamation projects are However on foot, and in few years ex- 'pect to see Yuma County rated as the richest inthe Territory.
 The first glimpse the traveller from Cali sfornia catches of Arizona is that Of the picturesque town Of Yuma, which is srUgiy situated in the embrace of gentle rolling ihills, upon whose crests and sides the modern homes of our superior civilization are crowding the adobe dwellingo into eternal oblivion. Yuma is the gateway to Arizona the new empire of the West, upon whose undeyeloped riches the eyes of the country are at present turned, and as such, she is bound to grow and prosper with 'rapidity thatsat present can hardly be re- talized. But coupled with her geographi- Ncal position we find that she is the center of country whose agricultural possiblll- ties are practically unlimited, being sur rounded by a soil the fertility of which exceeds that of the delta Of the Nile, and wanting only water to become paradise of bloom. Billions of gallons of that precious Ifuid have annually gone to waste at Yuma's very doors, but already reaction is takiHg>pla and many enterprises are on foot to supply the life-giving waters ot the yellow Colorado to the thirsty earth.
