WASHINGTON. D. c., May 5.-During
almost the entire session to-day. the
Senate had under consideration the post
office appropriation bill The measure
carries S922i3JO, being very much the
heaviest of all the appropriation bills.
The most important action taken upon
the measure was the adoption Of an
amendment offered by Mr.. Tillman (of
South CarOlina), reducing the number Of
deliveries of mail i'm all cities Of the
country TO a number not exceeding four
each day.
The amendment was sharply anita
ponizcd as a blow 90 business interests
I'm the large cities. but the feeling of the
Senate was such that despite the vigor-
Gus opposition, it prevailed by decisive
majority.
A lively debate was precipitated by an
amendment of the committee striking
out the appropriation of 100000 for rural
free delivery The proposition was dis
cussed for nearly two hours Mr.. Cham
dler of New Hampshire ana Mr.. Butler
(of North Carolina), leading the fght I'm
favor OF rural delivery. by the close vote
of % 90 -, however. the committee was
sustained. and the bin now carries no
appropriation for such delivery.
An Important amendment TO the bill
was one which wili prevent star route
contractors from sub-lctting their con-
tracts.
In order 10 get their money they must
be able 10 swear that they performed
the service themselves. The bill was laid
aside until tomorrow

But we protect your money; we protect
your labor. The republican party Is pro-
gTessiye; II is the party Of advancement
IL is the party OF education; 1t Ia the
party OF equality; 1t seeks to raise every
one to an equal plane with every other
citizen, aud as an evidence OF that II
makes every mans vote equal 10 every
other mans vote. The wealthiest man
in this land has but one vote; the poorest
man in this land has fully one vote;
these two votes stand side by side with
out preference for either, and with an
equal right to vote, and that is the way
with our dollar in money. Every dollar
stands side by side, each n equal 10 the
other, each n having an equal right,
That, ladies, and gentlemen, Is one OF the
principles OF the republican party and |
say that in this election you have ratified
this great principle; you have adopted
the principles Of the republican party;
you have declared that money shall

 Arizona had her quota in first. An Arizona citizen was the first volunteer mustered in and now Arizona assures the states of the Union that she will make no claim to statehod on ac- count of her quick reply to the call of the president In the future, as in the past, when We come up for statehood rights our petition will be based solely upon the same class of arguments that prevailed in admitting other terri tories. Nothing extraneous need SC into our petition.
 As for patriotism, we have enough and to spare, our individual political rights never entering Into the con- siderat1on.

DEWEY THE HERO.

Hero worship will always be univer- sal. Frequently it is illogical in the selection of it's object, but thismakes no difference in it's intensity. An un- known man performs the right thing at the right time. At once he springs into a being which taxes him from his obscurity and bcfore he is aware of the transition he is mounted upon a pedestal impossible for him to de- scend from, and equally impossible for him to escape from in any other man ner. This applies in every day life and causes no wonder.
 In war a man whose name has as yet not preceded him beyond the i'm mediate circle of his friends and asso- ciates, finds his opportunity, seizes it, successfully occupies it. and by bold how, and at once he becomes a god to the people. He is hero, and his wor- ship is on. There is no stopping it even if there were disposition so to do. The world worships a hero.
 Take the case of our brave Dewey. While he had an official record of long, faithful and efficient service, and was rapidly nearing the period of in- activity by legal retirement. he had won nothing greater than a record oi merit on the page of the navy's book occupied by hundreds of others. He was yet to show what was in him. and the time came. It is not now ques- tion whether he was foolhardy in at- tempting to run the Obstructions in Manila bay. The wisdom or unwis- dom of his policy cannot now be ques- tioned. Had he failed, had he met with signal disaster in the destruction of his fleet, and the lives of those in his charge-but he did not. He achieved by action, and he wop the greatest naval victory of all time. And he is our hero
 Hero worship as a rule Is more a matter of the heart than the head. And so 1t is that most of our heroes are given to us through Qeeds that stir the blood and cause the cheek to flush rather than those that require our reasoning faculties.
 Dewey confronted a condition, not a theory, at Manila and he met it by action prompt, brave, successful. That is enough.
 We venture the assertion that the one and only reason Dewey will ever have for regret in connection with his elevation to the list of heroes, will come through his friends. Already they talk of Dewey for the presidency We cannot honor Dewey beyond his deserts, but we can, if we go too fal | in the other direction, cause him the regret which every true friend will pray for him to escape.
Arizona republican., 1898-05-13

Talk about the failure of the Greater New York scheme" under practical tests, is now being heard in the big metropolis. It is said that there is "great disappointment in contemplating the results of consoli- dation up to the present time. It will possibly be a sufficient answer just now to such complaints to remark that a large lot of more or less dis tinguished citizens failed to get thi offices in the first municipal election under the new charter.
Arizona republican., 1898-05-13

A number of communications Cn the subject of Catholics in the war have been received, all tending to defend against the charge of sympathy with Spain. Most of these communications have been handed in by persons of other religious belief. The Republi- can has not room to print them all, and so we print a communication which we think covers the ground fully, taken from letter in the Wash ineton Post of recent date. It will be found on another page.
Arizona republican., 1898-05-13

The newspapers everywhere are now playing with the name of Dewey, the man who directs the operations of Uncle Sam's feet in Asiatic waters. The naragraphers are now getting ready to make puns upon the name or the commander of the flying squad ron, to the effect that he has Schleyed a lot of Spaniards, etc. Sampson will come in order, probably, with com ments announcing that he has great strength, and all that sort of thing. The American people like to juggle with the names of their heroes.
Arizona republican., 1898-05-13

We are not predicting what our war ships on the Atlantic intend to do. We are willing to wait until they do it. That is safer. Boosting in advance is reckless amusement. War is seri- ous matter, and it is well not to shout with joy until there is something to shout for.
Arizona republican., 1898-05-13

Sampson's fleet has gathered in four teen vessels, with an aggregate value of nearly half a million dollars. That is doing very well for a start and par ticularly when it is recalled that Spain made boasts of what it intended to do with our commerce. Spain has cap tured one little coal boat carrying our flag. Fourteen beats one.
