At PRESCOTT

PRESCOTT, Nov. 9.-Yavapai county
has done itself proud, and has given about
800 majority for its citizen, j. f. Wilson,
as against its other citizen, Colonel Brodie,
of Rough Rider fame. 1t has stamped its
disproval upon man who has subordinated
his principles in the quest of an office. Two
years ago Colonel Brodie voted for Captain
Bucky O'Neil, who ran as a Populist, be-
cause he was for free silver. The people of
Iavapai thought he did well at that time,
and at this election have done what he did
before, and have given a majority to Colonel
Wilson, the silver candidate.
Practically the whole Democratic county
ticket has been elected as well, and solid
Democratic representation in the legislature
is another result.
The returns from Navajo county have ar
rived here, and announce that that county
has given a majority of about 80 to Brodie,
and that the Republicans have elected on
the county ticket their candidates for
sheriff, district attorney, treasurer, recorder
and one supervisor, and the rest of the Of
fcers elected are probably Democratic.
In Mohave county the Democrats have
elected their whole ticket
This election was the liveliest ever seen
in Prescott, and the largest vote ever polled
yesterday, amounting to 927 votes.
Judge Street of Phoenix, who, by request
of attorneys interested in the suit, has been
in Prescott, trying the celebrated case of
Wise VS.. Lawler and Wells. The case was
tried by the court without jury, and judg-
ment has been rendered in favor of Lawler
and Wells for their costs and new trial
refused. The receiver for the property has
been discharged. The plaintiff will appeal.

fortunately for their county ticket, the
Democrats were split up on local matters.
Judge Barnes and his followers who opposed
the nomination of Col. Wilson, the dele
gate elect, were involved with the majority
of the rest of the Democrats in factional

fight of Barnes, Wilson would probably
have had a majority in this county.

talks about Kansas as Stanley does,
said John Briedenthal the other day.
At his meeting at Topeka Saturd ay
night Mr.. Stanley said: ''When that

continued Mr.. Briedenthal who will
say that the populists of Kansas are
responsible for the evil reputation OF
the state. I want to say to you and if
see Mr.. Stanley l will tell it to him,
that it is not the populist party that
has given the state a bad reputation,
but the people that are lying about
the pOpulist party. know why the
republicans have lied about the popu-
lists. When the populists won and
took the government of the State for
two years they stood, off their cred
itors on a proposition that they
couldn't pay their debts until what
Stanley calls the blight. of populism
had been removed from the State.
They simply took advantage of these
two years SO that their debts would be
outlawed. 1 want to say to Mr..
Stanley that when he insults the pop
ulists of this State he is insulting the
debt-paying people of the State, and
not the repudiationists. 1 can go with
him into every county and city, and
prove to him that a majority of the
debt-payers are populists or men who
are in sympathy with the populist idea
of bringing about those reforms that
will enable them to remove the burden
of the debt. Mr.. Stanly says that
pOpulism had it's birth in short crops.
He does not know what he is talk
ing about. The populists' first sue
cess was in 1892, vixen Kansas had
the largest wheat crop in the history
of the State. He says that populism
was the product of bad times, when
dlscontentment and distress prevailed.
want to tell him that populism was
born under the administration of Har-
rison, and the republicans told us in
1896 that the administration of Har-
was the most prosperous administra-

General Miles has driven Secretary
Alger from the war Department LAST

casm, ridicule and satire. During
his tour of camp inspection thee Sec
retary informed the country from day
to day that but. for the negligence of
the officers of the camps and the
proneness OF the men to abstain from
habits Of cleanliness, there would
have been but little sickness; that the
war Office had been lavish in the dis
tribution of supplies, and that no
blame should be attached to any of
the Washinton departments. To this
balderdash the general of the army
replies Indignantly after this fashion:
"ThQse who say that thes. men sick-
sned and died because they wished to;
those who blame the soldiers and
officers OF our army for the disease

Mr.. Alger is not built that way. He

his official robes about the secretary

was brave act of General Miles to
defy the administration, to protect
the good name of the soldiers
and he may feel sure that the soldiers
fully appreciate his manliness. What
the president will do about relaains to

no small loss. A number of them,

The property of the B. & 0. in this
city is almost completely submerged
with the exception of the Hempfield
tracks. The river came over the bank
at the passenger depot last night, and
the floor will be covered with water
this morning. The officials decided
that the temporary bridge over the
creek was unsafe, and after six o'clock
no trains were permitted to pass over
it. A freight engine pushed long
string of cars on the bridge to weight
it down, and there is very little danger
that the structure will be lifted from
its foundations and carried away.
On the Pennsylvania road, the same
trouble was experienced as on the B.

President Mckinley VIII Suggest Inter
yention in the Cuban War.
Washington, March 23.-The pre-
vailing impression among the Repub-
lican leaders of the House is that the
President will intervene in Cuba on
humane grounds, but it is positively
stated by one of them who is close to
the President that the intervention Will
not come until after the report of the
board of inquiry on the Maine disaster
goes to Congress.
The two questions will be treated
separately" said he to-day, land the
message relative to Cuba will be sent
to Congress soon after the report on
the Maine question"
The Cuban message as forecasted by
a prominent Republican will waive the
question of the Maine disaster and
putting aside that awful occurrence,
will be in effect declaration TO Spain
that the present methods of warfare IN
Cuba must cease. 1t will result IN in
tervention in case Spain demurs. The
message will be accompanied by the
reports of the consuls in Cuba.

intervention on humane grounds will
place our action upon moral level
that would command the broad SYM
pathy of the world. We could afford,
