COL. coNeER INTERVIEWED.
ne hoasts Hanna and Predicts Demo
 cratic Success.

'~teHa aHo FreoictS D6no- l
 cratic Success.
 A Areporter for the Gazette Weanes- day evening met Colonel A L oopgor of Ohio, who is temporarily living ins Phoenix, and asked him what bel thought of the senatorial election jn. Ohio. The colonel replied:
 Private dispatches from Ohio state that Hanna has been elected by one majority. The feeling is that it was done by bribery, and the indicati lions are that the matter is not yet settled Il
 Ii 1t turns out to be true that Han na was elected by corrupt means VI shall carry the case to the United States senate and apply for justice there. In that case the Republican party has one more chance to live. Ii Hanna goes into the senate the Repas,. lican party is dead for a good ma,y years to come.
 Ut is very amusing to see the Ri- publican papers all over the countA rejoice, but this rejoicing comes frob papers supported largely by patronsr and surplus poodle dealt out by th. trusts.
 Hanna had millions of dollars command at Columbus What a Il e- ulous spectaelel The capital at Col umbus, Ohio, filled up by government employees working in the interest O the trustsl The laboring men of ths country and the farmers no longer have home in the Republican party, because it has become the party of cor ruption Thousands of honest Repub- licans must leave it.
 "In Ohio Hannaism was fairly beaten before the people. He ran behind the ticket SC,000 votes, and the indications are that 40,000 of these were old sol. l diers who stood by the Republican party all it's days and gave their servie,a to their country in it's defense. Nov tho | Republican press is seeking to drive them from it.
 "0ur people will carry this matter to the United States senate and demand . hearing there, and with such men as Senator Foraker, Quay, Platt, Cabot Lodge, Horr and Allison and sont western senators acting as jurors, Han. naism and his poodle methods will ruI still another gauntlet before he serve, , in that capacity.
 "We have in Hanna's election iu l dorsed everything that is corrupt 1T . politics, fathered the single gold stand , ard, driven the poor people from thl ranks of the Republican party, placed
 it absolutely under the control of tn, trusts of the country an enormous cor ruption fund that will threaten to car ry the next election. But the same tn , auence that carried SO,00O votes ava from the Republican party in Ohio thi ! time will defeat the Republican party Il predict that II Hanna goee a , United States senator this time tia , Ohio will go Democratic at the nsx ! election and that in 1900 the Democrat will elect their president. ]"

supporting. By this means will a home life be furnished for the Indian and he will more rapidly advance in civilization as consequence. He will abandon his nomadic life; his children will be kept at home and educated in neighborhood schools, instead of being sent to large Indian schools at dis tance where they are kept (as it would seem) for mere pursoses of show. After being instructed in the arts of civilization for time they arereturned to savagery, to become more unhappy and discontented than if they had never received the questionable advau- tages. We feel that the present policy of the Indian department is all wrong in this regard.
 5. The Pima and Maricopa Indian reservation contains $50, 900 acres of as fertile land as lies within the bound- aries of Arizona, and is admirably adapted for homes for these people. ss well as the wandering Papagoes, who are now compelled to prey upon the herds of our farmers and ranchmen for subsistence.
 I. The construction of storage res- erVoir at the Buttes by the Govern. ment offers plain business proposi- tion for the correction of these evils.
 Resolved, That the Secretary of the Territory be instructed to transmit q copy of the foregoing Memorial to our Delegate and Delegate-elect in Con- gress, and also copy each to the Presi- dent of the Senate and Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Safety in Buyinc Sseda.

There is no other way to measure the value of seed than by the value of the crop. 4 good crsp simply can not come from poor seed. Second-rate seeds will waste good land, good ferti- lizer, and good labor, and the crop won't pay expenses. Now, as the practical farmer cannot afford to waste time testing seeds to find out whether they are true to name, sound and clean. it stands to reason that the only safe way to buy seeds is to seek the protec- ton of name that has stood for re- liability in the past. The great seed house of D. Nj. Ferry & Co.,, Detroit Mich, has sold seeds all over the United Statesand Canada for the last forty-two years, and the steady growth of the business is sure indication that Ferry seeds have given satisfaction. Ferry's Seed Annual for 1898. a stand- ard guide for farmers and gardeners containing much valuable information is sent free to persons writing for it.

Editor Randolph, of the Republican
 telegraphs his paper from Chicago
 under date of January 25 that "work on
 the Prescott 6 Eastern railroad, con
 necting the Big bug and Chaparral
 mining district of Arizona with the
 outside world, will begin not later
 than March l. This was decided upon
 to-day at meeting of the directors of the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix Rail road company, held in their office in this city. The road will leave the main line at the Point of Rocks, five miles north of Prescott, and run in an easterly and southerly direction twenty six miles to Joe Mayors, at Big Bug The coal of construction will be in the neigh borhood of half million dollars. The road will be operated by the s. F ?. & P and it is expected that trains will be running over the line not later han July 1. The opening of this rail- oad will mean much to Arizona. The inc will tap one of the richest mining | egions in the territory, and Prescott vill be given a decided impetus in all $ varied lines of business. ]"

 From the Globe Silver Belt.l
 The bill granting right-of-way ae oss the San Carlos reservation to the lila Valley, Globe and Northern Raj vay company passed the senate Jan 6, and received the approval of the President on the 9th inst
 Immediately on the receipt of ic8s of the enactment of the law, the U tied Globe Mines company ordered a supply of coka for shipment to Globe.
 E. H. Cook, superintendent of the United Globe, has been advised , the shipment of bridge timbers and tias to Geronimo, and that constructioa on the Gila Valley, Globe and Mort ern railroad would begin about Febf ary 1st or soon thereafter
 President Wm. Garland has wri len that work will begin at Geronimo and Globe simultaneously. At this en of the line force of men will be employ ed to make a cut 1900 feet long En5 g feet deep at the highest elevation, across the summit two miles southaast of town. Before construction work begins on the reservation it vii be necessary to negotiate with the In- dians, through Lieut.. Rice, acting agent at San Carlos, but no difscnlty is anticipated on that score
 The intention is to push the work with all possible speed and that by next November or December thu, rail- road will have been completed into Globe.
 After having encountered So many obstacles and delays the news that tue i .ailroad is actually to be built seems 1 Ilmost too good to credit, but never heless there is no reason to doubt the of the report. The effect Ipon Globe is expected to be almost lectrical. Work in the mines will be increased, business will revive and im- will be made in the town, Il of which will give employment to lany more men and make money more lentiful It is safe to predict that s98 will be the best year in the history f Globe district.

Raturnsd from Dawson.

The following letter was received by Mir. E. P. Drew and explains the situa- tion ct Dawson as seen by Mir. Robt. Hughes, of Casa Grande, who left for the gold fields last summer and who is now on his return home:
 Los ANGELES, Jan. 9th, 1898.
 FRIEND DREW Arrived here a week ago, but have been sick since came here and have not felt much like writ ing you.
 wired you from Seattle but did not hear from you direct, so made ar engagements. We'll, Drew, I had to leave Dawson. was short of supplies and could not get as much as can of baking powder, for the reason there was nothing there. Men who had their orders in and their money for six months were short, so was compelled to take to the ice for it or starve, and I had hard time of it getting out. had to pack my grub on my back for could not buy dogs and was 47 days making the trip. l would not make the trip again for five thousand dollars. Well, as to Alaska, Drew, it is good place to stay away from if you have not got barrel of money. There are very rich diggings on Fl Dorado Creek, but take Fl Dorado out, and it is of, There would never have been any ex- citemeut but for it. You can not get a foot of ground within twenty miles of that creek and there is no quartz in that district, it is all of glacier forma- s1s's-- ------------.---=-----r rhau have never been through the frost yet and have reached a depth of forty feet. No one can imagine how difficult it is to prospect in that country unless they have been there. You get up the Clon- dike, fifty miles from Dawson, and it will cost you dollar and half to two dollars pound to have your supplies packed up. It costs from twenty to 30 cents pound to have your supplies packed up to the diggings in Fl Dorado and you can't get them up at that some times of the year. l would have put in the winter there if had an ample supply of grub, but lost about half of my grub at White Horse rapids. We lost our boat so there was nothing for me only to pull out. The A. c. Co. sent about 400 men down to Fort Yukon where they could get supplies furnished them and grub to go down on and they have to chop wood for four dollars a cord, to pay for it. The men who went down with me went down in preference to going out on the ice.
 If you anticipate going to Dawson to mine would advise you by all means to stay where you are; the life of Daw- son is short and sois every placer camp where there is no quartz. If you have anything to sell in Dawson you are all right. Flour was one hundred dollars sack when left and could not get 1t for that, and then you will see it in the papers. There is no shortage of supplies but there was not restaurant open in Dawson when left, nor g store, and when the restaurants were open meals were from s3 to $5 each. Nothing more of any importance this time. Yours truly,
 RoBT. HUGHES.
