for use in the family residence, is the mean
descent electric light. Safe nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gen.
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite number in

who has grown to manhood in the terri tory, who has labored for it's good for many years, at his own cost and without wearying. In season and out of season. in diversity and in prosperity, through good report and through evil report, he has ever stood up for Arizona. The first man to Washington when danger threat ened, when trickery was in the air and when the prosperity of the territory was threatened, and the last to leave, MT. Murphy has rendered services to Ariz ona that no man can compute. He has served the territory as Governor before and once as Delegate to Congress, and this new homer is therefore not awarded in the way of an experiment.
 "The writer has the honor and the pleasure of an intimate acquaintance with Governor Murphy. He has learned to admire and to appreciate his broad gauge progressive, and, if need be, ag- gressive policy Oakes Murphy is honest. just and upright, and every inch man. Pity all political appointments cannot go to men as worthy. We hope to see jus tice dealt out to Arizona by the next Con- gress, by the passage of an enabling act admitting it into the Union as a State, and that Governor N. Cakes Murphy may be elected it's Senator for the long term"

The Exploit of R. M. Robertson of
 Tempe on Sunday Night.

A warrant was issued from Justice Johnstone's court yesterday for the ar rest of R. NJ Robertson, bookkeeper for the Arizona Mercantile company of Tempe Complaint was made against him by J. A. Larkin Of this city, charging him with Q gross dis turbance Of the peace on Sunday night. Larllin said that he. his wife and sister were returning from Tempe on wheels. Lerkin's lamp went out and he dis mounted to relight it. While he was engaged Robertson came along in a Buggy. His horse stopped and Larkin thinking the animal may have, been frightened by the light asked Robert son if he should lead it past the wheels. Robertson grunted in reply and Larkin taking this for a gruff as- sent led the animal short distance along the road A new idea occurred to Robertson Turning suddenly in the road he drove back to where Lar kin and the women were. He applied the most abusive epithets to them and shreatened to run them down. He proceeded to try to do so and came SO near it that he ran over Larkin' s wheel and broke it. Larkin and the women took refuge in the dense weeds which line each side of the road at that point. As soon as one Of them emerged from the weeds Robertson renewed his running down policy. As long as they remained in the weeds Robertson contented himself with 1. swearing at them and calling them Eames. He kept them "treed" there until Mexican came along and re- Aeved them by getting into a quarrel with Robertson and diverting his at tenuon. The reason that complaint waS made here instead Of before 6 Tempe justice is that it is cheaper and less troublesome to bring Rob- ertson to Phoenix for trial than to sake three witnesses to Tempe
 Persons who know him say that whenever Robertson gets drunk he is seized with a mania for buggy riding, and driving over wheelmen and pe- 2estrians.

TO RELIEVE SOLDIERS FAMILIES
General Sampson, Minister to Ecuador
 Makes a Good Suggestion.

Editor Republican: The press Of Phoenix and Arizona deserves all praise for encouragement and enthu- siasm given which helped to place Ari- z0na as the first to send volunteers into the war of 1898, and in g;Fing to her volunteers due praise, after they lad enlisted.
 Permit me to suggest t!lat thee is one more most important mat.er that ycu can ha!c bring about
 Those of US who lived from 1881 to 1885 know tfat there were many wives and children of soldiers. both rorti- and south. who would have >alraost starved had it rc! been fer organized help Many there were who suffered greatly before their condition was found out
 Thirteen dollars a month less what may be spent cut of that) don't go very far towards furnishing 9 wife and three to six children with the abso- lute necessaries of life, not to say or dinary comforts
 There may not be a wife CT child Of Arizona volunteers needing help, and yet there may be. Suppose a husband getting S75 month for labor, with no other resources with which to support his family than his muscle or brain. has renounced this and accepted SIS from his country. in lieu thereof. it is evident his family must suffer unless the patriotic citizens at home come to their relief
 These wives and children are not beggars. They will almost starve be- fore they will make their wants known. We owe it to them to give them the comforts of life. without their asking.
 Let every county organize the Sol dlers' Family Relief association at once, with officers and a committee to investigate and report all cases de- manding help, and to audit all bills. Not merely the necessaries of life to keep them living, but some of the comforts of life as well.
 I vii be one of fifty to place five thousand dollars in the hands of such an organization for use in our county.
 No doubt other counties will do their part. Let these payments be made in installments of $25 each as needed. Or. if this proposition is not met, if such an organization is properly form ed, to solicit general help by subscrip- tions. then my check for $25 is ready at once, for it, and more when needed
 Respectfully yours.

WHO WON
lnCcrsala Result Of the First Ward
 Affair Lasf Night.

The 'Soapy Smiths probably made 3 killing at the First ward democratic mass meeting last night, an unnatural sequel Of an overwhelming defeat in the fight for organization. The meet Eng was held in Q rear room of the Capitol hotel. The Saivatlon Army. which is usually not afraid of noise or the devil. abandoned it's barracks in anticipation of the assemblage ot First ward democrats in the same block. and held an outdoor meeting. This is the first time on record that shese militant religionists gave way Before the enemy.
 The assembly room was filled with deEIaerats of all complexions. and curious republicans W. B. Lount and James Burson were nominated for Temporary chairman. Lount was cas- Ely elected. A & Mills was made secretary, and the word went out that the '.Scapy Smiths" were done for But inc night was still young. only one hand had been played and there were other tricks in the game
 The first thing proposed was the or ganiZation of q ward club, more for the purpose of preventing coloniza- tioE than for campaign work. A roll was opened and signed only by demo- eratS of the First ward. When this was finished some one proposed that every member pay a monthly assess nent of four bits. The house groaned and then laughed derisively. When the confusion had subsided. a still small voice asked what God had cre- ated candidates for except to contrib ute to the support of political packers
 Taking hint from this inquiry NIT. D. L. Murray moved that every candidate throw silver dollar on the secretary's desk, and he tossed one which fell with a 16 to 1 clangor There was rain of silver Nobody had ever seen so much silver outside of bank. The table groaned under it, and still all the candidates were no Ehere
 After this the meeting settled down to it's real object. the choice O. list of delegates to the county con vertion, to be voted for at the pri maries next Saturday. A variety O ways of going about it were proposed W. 5. Tipton suggested one which wa much in vogue in some parts of In diana He proposed that each membe Of the club be allowed to present twt names.

 When the office of Governor of Ari zolla became vacant through the appoint ment of Governor McCord as Colonel of the Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma regiment of volunteers, President Me k1nley appointed to that important posi- tion the Hon.
