PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. 23.-The Repub-
licans Of the territory are trying big CON
fidence game on the people. Knowing that
the territory is strong for silver, and against
the methods of an administration that can
retain an Algcr in its confidence, and be the
frieds Of monopolies and political robbers
like Hanna, the Republicans have abandoned
any effort to run their campaign on politi.
cal principles or party platforms and they
propose to conduct it on promises, and
promises that they cannot keep if success
full. ELECT Brodie and Arizona becomes
state" is their cry. -Four years ago it was
"Elect Murphy and Arizona becomes u
state" Well. Murphy was elected and
Arizona is still territory. The policy OF
the Republican party is against the admis-
sion of any southern territory, and always
will be. They had all three legislative
branches of the government last congress
and Arizona had not particle OF show OF
being admitted. Empty promises were
is amusing to note the attitude of Brodie.
When he arrived from New York at Hol-
brook Chairman Drake and other war
horses, hopeful of receiving political re-
wards of officers for conducting successful
deception, met him and gave him his cue.
Since then not a word have we heard from
him ONT the silver question, nor in his address
has he touched upon the Republican nation
nj or territorial platforms. He is giving
what his friends call sensible business
talks to the people, but which SAVIOR of the
methods of merchant who is running n
false retiring-from- business sale, except that
in this case Brodie will be retired from
practical life. His business talks mean ad-
vice to Arizonans to vote the Republican
ticket, whether they believe in Republican
ism or not. deceive tho congress in
Washington into believing Arizona is Re.
publican, and statehood will come, and
then you will be able to sell your goods"
But all is not lovely, even in the Republican
ranks 1t is rumored that the Murphys
are lukewarm in their support of Brodfe.
The governor, Oaks Murphy, has the sena-
torial toga in his mind. and it won't do for
Brodie to get the political reins in his
hands or Brother Frank may not be able
to land the governor in the senate. In the
meantime. the Democratic candidate. Will
son is talking Democratic principles to the
voters, of whom enough are honest, and will
elect sincere man like Wilson.
