EDITORIAL NOTES.


 for making as good 8 record as dele gate in Congress as he did in the charge st Las Guasimas,
 The sooner Gen. Blaneo is made to leave Cuba, the easier it is likely to be for the American srmylof oc- cupation.
 A president can have DO bette quality than good, sound judgment, and 10 president has shown better than President Mckinley.
 The bald-headed assertions are coming from the democratic side of the house these days. They will not count for much.
 1 General Joe Wheeler sustains the conduct of the war. The general IS not one of those who permits his partisauism to rise above patriotism or a sense of justice.
 It will not be many years until the carving process now going on with China will be in operation in Turkey. The Ottoman empire is doomed.
 Spain is acting just as she did be- fore the war. She is making excuses 
 1 for not evacuating Cuba just as though il was her intention 10 hold on as long as she eau.
 Do the people want a repetition of the tin-horn 18th legislaturei If they do not let them see to it that every republican nominee on the legislative ticket is elected.
 St. Louis reports the drowning of a man iu a bath tub at that place. A St. Louian should learn to swim before he ventures into a bath tub.

 "The enemy are on the run. - Courier. Yes they are on the run | just as the Rough Riders ran at San Juan. They are On the double quick charge, solid column front in pursuit of their democratic foe.

 "The JoURSAL-MINER has sban- doued its search for that opinion 1t credited to Col. Wilson. ."-Courier. The JOURNAL MINER found that opIn- ion long ago just as it was given to District Attorney Morrison. Other points in connection with it will ap- pear in due course of time.
 Will Yavspai county repeat the folly sha committed two years ago and send another democratic repre- sentation to the legislature and take the chances of of turning loose upon our law abiding citizens few more murderers We think not. We be- lieve the voters of this county have enough of such incompetency.
 The election of Col. Brodie will almost absolutely secure the admis- sion of Arizona as a state. It will also give Arizona a great advertise ment throughout the country on account of her having honored one of her gallant aud brave soldiers of ths recent war.
 The board of supervisors of Mari copa county will put the names of candidates for assessor on tte off cial ballot in that county with the understanding that the man who receives the greatest number of votes will afterwards be appointed to the position. It seems as though thIs would be good precedent to follow in this cOuntv foo
