REGARDING STATEHOOD.

When the first call for volunteers was made citizens of Arizona were in a sort of insinuating way advised not to accept service under "go1d buzz administration. The same sort of in sinuating advice is now being used in regard to statehood. Arizonians are ad- vlsed that statehood, granted by re- publicans, is a boon not worth seek ing. Despite the former advice, about four times as many men volunteered their services to fight for their coun- try, as were accepted. The latter ad- vice will be accepted by about the same proportion of our citizens. If an individual places his desires upon a certain object he is not going to be over fastidious as to how he secures it, provided it is in an honorable way -Journal-Miner.

POPULIsT MASS MEETING.
County Convention Set for Au-
 gust IS.

A populist mass meeting was held at the court house yesterday to ar- range for holding county convention and selecting delegates to it. The meeting was called to order by w. w. Edwards. A. B. Chenowith was elect ed chairman, and J. D. James secre- |tary. A discussion arose over the le- gality of this method of fixing for the convention, but it was finally resolved to follow the course marked out. The convention was set for August IS, which by a strange coincidence is the date of the democratic county conven- tion. Some persons given to de- ductive reasoning thought they saw in this circumstance a movement to- ward fusion.
 The meeting placed the number of delegates at forty-seven, which is just half the number of delegates who will sit in the democratic county conven- tion. The delegates are: A. Van
 Doren, G. H. Trook, c. O. Case, John

ON THE SUBJECT OF EXTRAS.
Thera Are Times When Their Issu apco Is Hardly Warranted.

A careful and exhaustive search last night of the city ordinances the laws of the territory. the organic act and the constitution of the United States failed to disclose any inhibition against the Phoenix Herald issuing extras. Still tie conviction is forced apon that when the Herald feels longing to get out an extra, it ought to hunt up competent author fly and inquire if the time is ripe to do so. The Herald precipitated an extra somewhat bigger than a postage stamp yesterday and excited the pop uTace by the annunciation, Peace on Earth, Good Will to Man" This was a misquotation. There were not men enough. However. that was imma- : terial A mistake like, that is incident sn the rush and hustle of projecting an extra. The main thing, though, was that the extra was hardly warranted It set forth nothing that had not beer rumored and believed for three days and concerning which there is ever now only rumor and belief that Spain will, if she ha: not already done so, accedt to the peace proposals of the United States. It Is difficult to lay down { general rule for the guidance of thu Herald in the matter Of promulgatins extras, for there is such a wide variet! of occasions on which one may issu an extra without giving offense. It i seldom proper to do so on mer' suspicion or even on information ant belief. But there are two specifi events which always and invariabl. justify the dissemination of an extra One is the annihilation of fleet ant the other is the appointment of tn governor of territory.

A SEA VOYAGE.
A MariCopa Mans Experience at
 Long Branch.

Mir. H. E. Slosser Of the Riverside has lately returned from trip to the coast He had one adventure which was pretty thrilling for an hour or two. While at San Pedro he met old man Wentworth, formerly a resident of Phoenix and an early acquaintance of MT. Slosser''s. Am5ng Wentworth s belongings was a handsome sailing , boat. He asked MT. Slosser to have a rile. MT. Slosser is more of a lands man than sailor, but assuming that a man who owned as pretty boat as that would know how to use it, he gladly accepted the invitation A strong breeze was blowing out to sea and the boat flew along before it in q somewhat cratic course Mr Slosser regarded that circumstance, though, as an evidence Of MT Wentworth's s skill. As the boat scudded along. first in one direction and then another, MT. Slosser became more than ever i'm preSrated with admiration for Went worth's seamanship. In the mean time they talked about old times and the folks in Phoenix MT. Slosser suddenly remembered that he wanted to catch a train back to the city and told Wentworth that they had better 50 back. He looked around for the nrst time, but could see no land. A haze had settled down on the sea. He was surprised, but not alarmed Moth fng haG- occurred yet to jar his conf aerce in Wentworth Pretty soon. though, Mir. Slosser began to suspect that gentleman of being at sea in more senses than one Where's the land?" he asked. Wentworth scanned \ the Horizon in all directions before reply sng. Finally he said: q ain't much of sailor, but I think it's over wonder" Indicating it's supposed locality by a general sweep of his right hand.
 What in the name of God did you fetch me out here for if you didn't Know anything about the sea?" cried KIT Slosser. Wentworth replied that he hadn't figured on getting out of sight of land and had never done so before They turned and steered back into the haze. An hour and half later the land lOOmed up and when they touched at Long Beach Mir Slos- ser sDrang out and swore that he would never go to sea again
 Speaking of his voyage yesterday he said: T was never so badly fright sned. Honestly, I never expected to ses, land again. It was 8 perilous sit 5ation. That we did reach land was simply providential occurrence. We might fer all Wentworth knew have been going tO fhe PhilinnineS ar Alaska You can easily imagine how felt on the open sea with that kind Of navigator who had no other way Of ascertaining Q point Of the compass than by waving his hand at it"

the bravery Of the California troops, who
have SO nobly upheld our countrys honor
upon the battlefelds Of this war.
We send greeting to the gallant heroes of
Manila, Santiago and Porto Rico, and ten
der the profound sympathy Of this conven-
ton to the kindred and friends OF our
brave marines and soldier heroes who have
sacrificed their lives for their country's
honor.
We declare In favor of maintaining the
standard Of our country wherever 1t has
been planted. Our civilization ever ad-
vances-it cannot retreat and never sur
renders.
We congratulate the people Of the Pacific
coast in their final triumph over corporate
greed and power backed by the secretary
Of war, In that the contract Is finally
signed for the construction of a harbor of
refuge and commerce at San Pedro for the
benefit OF what must ultimately grow into
a very extensive Transpocific commerce.
The recent war with Spain having dem
onstrated the necessity for the early con-
struction of the Nicaragua canal, we turn
with confidence to congress to crystalline
into law the public sentiment on that sub
ject which has SO universally taken hold of
the American people, and we favor the
construction, ownership and control Of said
canal by the people Of this country.
We favor the extension Of our school sys-
cable lines connecting our newly acquired
possessions, to be constructed and con-
trolled by our government.
We favor the extension Of our school sys-
tenn in all practical branches, and favor
the establishment of a polytechnic school
at San Luis Obispo and the continuation of
the present system of state school text
books.

WEATHER SIGNS


The sun is bright, the sky is clear,
But grandma says storm Is near;
And when asked how she could know.
She said the peacock told her so.
When perchfng on the old fence-rail,
He screamed SO loud and dropped his tail:
And the shy cuckoo on the wing
Repeated over the same thing;
And "More Wet!" all the Bob Whites cried
That In the grassy meadows hide;
The SCOT that from the chimney fell
Came down, 1t seems. this news to tell:
The kettle sang the self-same tune
When 1t boiled dry so very soon:
The grass, this morning said so, too.
That hung without drop cf dew:
And the blue swallows, flying low
Across the river, to and fro.
30 all these told her very plain
That ere the evening It would rain:
But who told them. and when and hcWf
That's what want to find out now!

Further, as the revenue law authorizes
the issuance Of certificates OF indebtedness
up to S106. 900 900. as we'll as bonds, We con-
denim the secretary of the treasury In not
exercising his power to issue certificates to
the full amount allowed by law, and the
utilization and coinage of the sesgnioraee
Of silver now in the treasry OF the country,
before resorting to the sale Of bonds.
We denouucs the proposition Of the In
ternational Bimetallic commission for the
purpose of securing an agreement Of inter-
national silver coinage as a subterfuge 1t
was presented before the St Louis Repub-
lican convention three times, and resulted
not only In failure but in snubs and insults
to its projectors. To renew such a scheme
again after a trilogy Of failures would
be an insult to the intelligence OF the Amer
lean people.
We denounce the plan Of Secretary Gage
and the Bankers alliance to retire the
greenbacks and to confer on the banks the
sole power to supply the country with cur
rency.
In raising revenue for state. county and
