ON THE PLATFORM.

The following logical article from the
 Prescott Courier should he read care fully by every voter in Arizona:
 "When a foreigner is admitted to citizenship in this country, he takes an oath of allegiance to this country. When a citizen rms for office on party plat form, he must abide by the declarations of that platform, or he becomes trai o, of the Judas Iscariot stripe. lti Of no avail to talk otherwise, for these are the facts in the case. When man joins temperance society, he must quit strong drink while he is member, or he be- comes . perjurer and having no manly attributes save the ehape of man. No matter how wicked manmay be, he can and does become good Christian, and no matter how good Christian he may have been, he can and does become the vilest of the vile. The silver man may turn traitor and become a gold bug through beil z too weak to resist the in- nucnce of British and Wall street gold and poeition. and the gold-bug may see the error of his wicked way. repent, and honor himself by assuming the peni- tent form and taking his stand on free silver platform, and by doing so pledge himself to support the tenets of that platform. The fair-minded and liberal viewed men, of the west especially, dwell not co much on '.has beens" as upon the man as his is today; and even if he has them, if they zee that man charging down upon them in the ranks of a common enemy. they must be pre-. pared to receive that man as an enemy they cannot do otherwish. On the other hand. if man who has ever been arrayed against them, walks upon thelr platform, accepts their doctrine as his doctrine, and fights shoulder to shoul- der with them against the common foe, TO matter how bitter an enemy he may i have ,,lc.., rc. he is admitted to fellowship 1! with them. It is both human and di. | vine that this should be thecae Then .ell us not of the "hss beens," for the ! nan who fights with ns today is our be- loved and trusted fellow.eoldier today, ! RRd the man who leads the forces of the | enemy agSinst us today is arrayed against us, and no "has been" talk will l convince us otherwise, This is prin- ciple which has prevailed since time commenced and one which will endure forever; and. in this age of the world, no man can be convinced that his friend. with sword in hand, marches down upon him in the bristling ranks of the enemy"

Few people have any concep- ton of the ore bodies or the unlimited amount of mineral that lies in this basin. The Copper Queen Company has been operating here for eighteen years and are down only 300 feet, simply because they found sufficient ore between there and the surface. to keep them in constant operation.

WHAT IT MEANS.

Arizona republicans are striving to conceal the real issue of this campaign. 'By their ambiguous declaration on the silver question they hope to turn atten ton from that subject, and cause the people to forget that they stand on the same plank as Hanna and his eastern votaries.
 It is more important, however, to elect delegate from Arizona on a straight.out silver piatform this year than ever before. Arizona's every i'm terost is dependent upon the mining in. dustry for advancement, and no uncer- tain stand can be taken upon that ques- ton. It would be . calamity to the cause of silver to scnd an administra ton republican to the national congress at this time. It would be hard blow at bimctallism to elect A. o. Brodie on 8 platform which ratihes all the policies of McKinley's administration and en dorses MurIhy's course.
 The duplicity and insinoerity that stains the planks of the republican plat form should not be overlooked. It is an endorsement of Algerism, Murphy ism and incom potency. It approves the appointment of incompetent quar. termasters, whose neglect or indiffer- ence, has resulted in the death of thous- ands oi American soldiers. Is sanc- tions the attempt oi the administration

SEATTLE, Wash, May 2S.-The
steamer Rio Jun Maru has arrived
here with meager news of an anti
European riot at Sha Shi, China, in
which the British consulate, customs
house and the stores Of Jardine, Mat
theson & Co. and Butterfield & Swire
were destroyed by fire. The British
consul was severely beaten, and the
European residents were forced to take
refuge in the tea and silk hulks w.
ing in the river. No one was killed.
Sha Shi is large city on the Yang

it's mouth. 1t was one Of the ports
that was opened to foreigners after

against foreigners is said to be still

Bigger Than the Troops of Any
Other NatiOn-Men Keep Grow
ing Until They Are Thirty Years
Old or MOre-Chest Expansion of
Spanish Soldiers Less Than That
of Americans.
From the St. Louis Globe Democrat.
The Yankee is a much bigger man
than the Spaniard, and that is an i'm
portant advantage for the American
in this war. With all his pride of race,
the naughty Don is a little fellow; in
stature he is least among the Euro
peans, averaging only 51a inches over
feet. The soldier who fights under
the Stars and Stripes averages 5 feet
TX inches in his stocking feet, he
weighs ten pounds more than the
Spaniard, and his chest girth is nearly
two inches greater These are points
that count on the field Of battle.
Of course size is not everything in a
soldier. Never in history has it counted
for so little as it does today, inasmuch
as modern warfare is conducted chiefly
by machinery, battles are fought at
long ranges, and hand-to-hand encoun-
err than the Spaniards, yet there are
no fiercer fighters; the American In
dams, on the other hand, are superior
in stature to the Yankees. But, other
things being equal, the bigger man has
an advantage. The Yankee is the tall
est of civilized men; in Europe, only the
Norwegian approaches him nearly in
this respect, and the Englishman is a
full inch shorter.
Recruits for the war with Spain have
been subjected to physical examina-
lions of unparalleled severity, 20 and
even % per cent of many companies
being thrown out on account of de-
fects. The supply Of men is so much
greater than the demand that require
ments have been raised proportionate-
ly, and the soldiers gathered for this
conflict on the American side will av-
erage higher in respect to bodily de-
velopment and health than any army
ever before assembled by any nation
Fledgling youths, such as were inliSt-
ed so numerously in the Civil war; will
be conspicuous by their absence. There
will be no drummer boys of nursery
age, and fat men and bow-legged men
will be turned down.
The average volunteer rejected on his
physical these days is a very much
astonished person. He has been accus-
toned to consider himself as represent
ing, pretty nearly at all events, the
beau ideal Of manhood, and his surprise
is great when cold-eyed military sur
geon picks out flaws all over him. He
is too tall, perhaps. Not that six feet
and a bit over is an Objectionable
stature, but very tall men are apt to
lack depth of chest, which Is a quality
