Travel to California.

The Lake shore and Michigan South
ern railway is selling round trip tick
cts to California AT a reduced rate,
gcing one way and coming back an
other, leaving the choice of routes
with the passenger.
The Lake Shore offers many advan-
tages to those intending to make this
trip, principal among them being the
saving in time which this road makes
over any other line.
Not only this. but the many COM
forts and conveniences given by the
Lake Shore, and which are not found
on other roads, make the journey far
more pleasant and the time seem
shorter than it really is.
This line passes through the most
beautiful scenery in the country, and
tourists will be consulting their own
interests in travelling via the Lake
Shore. 90

RECORD BREAKING WEEK.
General Health of the City is Re-
markably Good.

Last weeks mortality of the city
broke the record. According to reports
received by the board of health from
physicians there were no new cases
of and no deaths from contagious di-
sease and but twenty-three deaths
from all causes.
The number of deaths reported is un-
usually small, the normal number
being over thirty per week, but the
absence of contagious disease or
deaths from contagious disease is re-
markable. 1t is probably true that new
cases developed during the week and
that physicians failed to report them,
but that is not uncommon during any
week.

Hon. Dennis O'Lenahan, ex-member
of the legislature died at his home
near the Archibald mine at 4 o'clock
sunday afternoon. Mr.. O'Lenahan was
president of the Lackawanna township
school board. He was a native of Ire
land but came here when very young.
He enlisted in the Union army in the
Civil war and fought in many battles
of the conflict. Mr.. O'Lenahan was
once very prominent in county politics,
but failing health forced him into re-
tirement. He is survived by his Wife
and several children.
Edmund ]. Godine, one of the old
and prominent dry goods men of New
York, having been a member of the

great energy and intelligence, and his

REASON FOR SATISFACTION.

There is no reason why republicans should be chagrined over the small ma jority they will have in the next house though small is as safe as though it
 were three times as large. Jus1 as much business can be transacted with q margin of a dozen votes as a hundred.
 AS matter of fact more business ought to be accomplished within given time by small majority than a large one. The narrower the gap be-
 tween the two parties, the more strict attention to the work of legislation is usually paid by all concerned. The members who are prone to stray to their homes during sessions while the majority is reassuringly large are kept more constantly at the capitol if there is a chance that the opposition may at any time steal a march and sneak in rider or smother a party measure or push through an embarrassing propo- sition. Caucus proceedings are likely to be more conducive to definite poli- ciss, committee work runs more smoothly, the burden of all the labor is more equally distributed. the leaders are kept within bounds of prudence more surely, and their following is compact, harmonious and disciplined by the constant nearness of the enemy. Then, again, committee assignments are well balanced. This IS a conso- latory feature of the Lew situation which will doubtless appeal both to the speaker and to the members.
 Those who mourn the loss of the present big majority overlook the fact that this is the first time in an "off year" that the result Of the congress sional vote has been so satisfactory. The republicans have every reason to be satisfied. The congress will be safely republican for four more years at least, Mckinley will be reelected, and the country is good, therefore, for years of progress. The election just had will prove to be a memorable one.
Arizona republican., 1898-11-16

The assurance Of a reelection fo- Senator Cushman K. Davis is the single comforting result of the election in Minnesota, but it is almost cheering enough to make up for the disaster which has befallen other republican in- terests in that state. The retirement of MT Davis from the senate at this time would have been little short of a public misfortune He has established himself as one of ths ablest, soundess and most useful statesmen in either house of congress, and the country is to be heartily congratulated upon the fact that his constituents have decided that he shall continue for at leas5 six years longer in the body which he has so admirably adorned with his culture and character

THE WHITE HILLS ROAD.
Work Has Just Begun at Kingman
 With Great Activity.

Yesterday the first work on the Sac ranento valley railroad was begun at
 Kingman in Mohave county with Dr.
 Theodore B. Constock of Los Angeles in charge as chief engineer. MT. Com stock is also vice president of the com
 pany which is building the road. The
 new road will run from Kingman to White Hills, both in Mohave county,
 distance of about fifty-four miles. Con- strucsion will actually begin at McCCn- nicO Junction, four miles west of King man, but under arrangements with the Santa Fe Pacific company the southern terminus of the road will be Kingman.
 'the heaviest grade on the road will not exceed 1855 per cent. The road
 will pass through one of the richest mining sections of Arizona. Out from Kingman it will strike first the Union Pass road, near to which are the Ew- ing mining properties, and some other ten or a dozen mines, then the Cerbat mines, Todd Basin and Mineral Park properties, all of which will be tribu- tary to the road It will then traverse the Chloride district, in which there arc a large number of valuable mines, all more or less developed, many of them already on paying basis. Leav- ing the Chloride district the road will take in the mining properties on the west side of the Sacramento valley, now called the KIondyke region, other wise known as Gracey's camp. Be yC1d that is Fl Dorado canyon, and then White Hills, the northern termi- nus Of the road. It is possible that, following the ccmple tion of the road, it may be extended as far wesi. as the Colorado river, passing near the Sena- tor mines, Gold Basin and Temple Bar The future will, however, determine that. The contracts, which lave been let, call far th3 completion Of the road as far as Chloride by June 1, 1899, and to White Hills by October i 1, 1899. The contractors express the |

 The present popular feeling that we need a larger standing army for protec~ tion. in event of foreign war is well founded in recent observation and fact during our conflict with Spain. It is true also that we need larger stand ing army because of domestic insurrec- tions in the various states. We need not only a stronger and more judic~
 iously selected mili,ia in every state. but we need near every great center Of population a strong camp of federal soldiers above all local sympathy or prejudice in favor of rioters. Theoret- ically, our national guard is sufficient 10 supplement the sheriff, but prac~ t. cally local sympathy and prejudice will be sure 10 unuermine it's useful ness. If there is no safety in sheriffs. let US multiply the soldiers behind sheriffs. When we reach the point when we are forced to choose between cen tralization or the subversion of the rights of individual liberty and prop .erty under law by lawlessress, we shall welcome a government whose arm is long enough 10 reach and strong enough to collar all rebels against the government, near or far.
