For years miners and prospectors

strip, hoping that some day the
government would cut it from the

was made with this end in view for
years without success. Finally an

1t is nauseatins and calculated TO
make one throw up his ''toe mails"
at the manner in which the repub-

behaved themselves as true Arr
zonans. The people of the ter.
ritory entertain the greatest re
spect and admiration for the mag
ni6cept and noble manner in which
they sustained the reputation of
Arizona as being composed of true
Americans. But 1t is asking too
much of the same class of citizens
to ignore their principles, forfeit
their manhood to'support men who
represent party opposed to every
measure they believe beneficial to
themselves and the people at large.
The result in this territory for del
egate to congress speaks in tones
unmistakable for the intelligence
and manliness of our people. 1t
shows they are governed by rea-

1t shows they are possessed of too

have their vision obscured by mil
