HERE is the true eloquence which poured forth from the heart and through the lips of Senator John NJ. Thurston in his great speech last week in referring to the position of the Republican party in the present crisis There are some who lift their voices in the land aud in the open light of day insist that the Republican party will not act, for they say it sold out to the capitalists and money changers at the last national election. It is not so. God forbid The 1000, 900 free men who voted for the Republican party and for William Mckinley did not mortgage the honor of this nation for campaign fund, and if the time ever comes when the Republican party hesitates in it's course of duty because of an undue anxiety for the welfare of the accumu- lated wealth of the nation, then let the Republican party be swept from the face of the earth aud be succeeded by some other party, by whatever name it may be called, which will represent the patriotism, the honesty, the loyalty and the devotion that the Republican party exhibited under Abraham Lincoln in 186l."

 From every county in the Territory comes information that the attempts to sell delinquent property for taxes this year is regarded as useless. Some of the counties taking early recognition of the situation have ordered publica- ton of the delinquent tax list as under the original law with the notice con templated by the amended law. The experiment on. newspapers of the Ter ritory because they were necessarily paid for publishing the long advertises ment necessitated by the delinquent list will be an expensive experiment on the part of the few mossbacks who concocted and pushed through the scheme regardless of the public welfare and the legal rights of the people in such matters. The men who fathered and worked that matter will be invited to hack seats in the future whoever they may have been. That sort of legislation will ruin any people.-[ Phm- nix Herald.

Hughes Gets Five Years.
From the Tucson star.j

tD IOA tn1 AuCSOu CtaEsl
 Fred G. Hughes was arraigned yes- terday afternoon to be sentenced, he having pleaded guilty to the indict ment charging him with the embezzlement of 5000 belonging to the Pioneer Historical Society. When asked if he had any reason to assign why sentence should not be passed, Mir. Hughes arose and read long essay to the court. He recited his early life here, his services to the territory as pioneer, claimed that the $3,000 is not embezzle- ment because he is not required to make settlement until the sitting of the next legislature, and at which time, he said, he proposed to account for every dollar, winding up by stating that he had never yet asked any man for mercy, and he would not do so now. Judge Davis then imposed sentence of five years in the territorial prison.
 Mir. Hughes had hoped to get 6 somewhat lighter sentence, but had been informed by his counsel, Judge Blenman, that he would in all probabil- ity get five years.
 Mir. Hughes left the court room with a smile on his face.

[Fron the Washington Post ]

"Arizona," said Senator Ives, oi that territory, at channberlin's, lis going to be the garden spot of America. We can raise the finest fruits and vegetables on earth from three to six weeks earlier than they can be grown in Southern California. The need of our country is statehood; if we could shed the territorial swaddling clothes that handicap our growth, a vast deal of capital would be attracted our way and many large enterprises would be started. As it now is men of means will not invest because the uncertainty of all things conducted under territor- ial auspices is too great. ''t'

THE war situation at last accounts was as follows: Mckinley is trying to compromise the matter and offers to quit if Spain shall feed the starving Cubans, grant an armistice till next fall to give the Spaniards and Cubans an opportunity to come to an agree suent. In case of failure to agree, the entire matter is to be submitted to Mckinley us arbitrator. In the meau- time the broncos in Congress are buck ing fast and furious, but Speaker Reed and Mark Hanna, as the agents of the money power, have the mustangs well in hand, and there is no likelihood of war if they can keep control. The very latest from Spain, received yester- day, is to the effect that s'Spain neither aeeedes to nor declines the Presi- dents propositions. She makes a counter argument that Spain should herself be allowed to propose the terms, as to what should be done regarding her own territory; that the United States should not do SC" The Republicans in Congress have ngreed to give the President till Mon day to work out his plans, at which time they will go over to the Democrats and unite on a proposition looking to the independence of Cuba. In the meantime President Mckinley is the most universally cursed man in the nation.

MCKINLEY, instead of pacifying the country, has caused it to boil over with indignation at his vacillating policy with regard to Spain. U. s. Circuit Judge Caldwell said prior to his in auguration that McKinley's adminis- tion would be the weakest this country had ever known, and he was right.

EFFORTS from Mineral Creek are of tue most encouraging character. Are cent important strike in the Ray copper mine is sf such magnitude as to warrant resumption of work on an extensive scale. It is said that the owners, L. Zeckendorf & Co.,, propose to put on a large force of men at an early day. At the Durham, Haley and Mcoalien mines, further up the creek, large bodies of high grade gold and lead ore have heen developed, sufficient to warrant the prediction that a populous camp will spring up on the Creek second to none in Pinal county.

THE report that Rev. I. T. White more had become excited over the prospective war with spain and had tendered his services to the Govern ment is without foundation. The Reverend gentleman is still in Washing ton begging away on the Buttes reser- voir, with every prospect of success.

TIE Graham Guardian says: "The proposed reservoir to be built on the Gila river at the Buttes, in Pinal county, should be built. The government makes appropriations for the dredging of harbors and rivers to increase com merce. and we see no reason why it should not make appropriations for the building of reservoirs for the reclamation of the desert. If the Buttes reservoir were built thousands of acres of desert would become blossoming fields, affording occupation and homes for thousands of families.

Mir. J. N. Curtis returned this morn- ing from Riverside where he has been pushing explorations on the Ray cop per mine. In an uprise from the 100 floor level he entered body of native copper bearing ore. The specimens brought in are pretty as pictures. The rock or rather the intermixing clay, is fairly plated with sheet copper. The body is said to be fully 30 feet wide.

Tonight.
The programme of the state conference
at Macon of the Epworth League of the
Methodist Church has been received. 1t
will be of interest to all who expect to at
tend.
There Is no place of importance tn the
state that has not league. The Leaguers
are growing in numbers, strength and in
fuence They have gained much that
formerly, fell to the Society of Christian
Endeavor, or which seems to have been
supplanted with the Methodsts by the
league.
A meeting will be held Tuesday night at
Wesley Monumental Church to consider
matters Of local interest to the four
leagues of this city. The conference will
then come up and some idea may be gain
ed as to the numbers that will attend from
Savannah Twelve delegates have al
ready been elected to represent the Savan-
nah leagues. The conference will be held
April to 10. In addition to these many
will go as visitors. The delegation may
invite the conference 10 meet here next
year. This will soon be decided upon.
The formation of a city union of the
four leagues is now under considera ton,
and at the meeting at Wesley, a constitu-
ton and bylaws will be submitted by a
board appointed at a meeting held last
week at Trinity.
When the conference was held last year
at Atlanta there was an attendance Of
1000 delegates alone In addition there
were many visitors. The delegates were
entertained by the Atlantians, among
whom the Methodists are very strong.
Visitors were furnished low rates for
board and such will be the plan follow
ed at Macon. There will not be so many
delegates at he coming conference, as a
different plan is now pursued in their cleo
ton.

WHITE FOXHOUNDS.
Famous Virginia Pack Whose Hunt

From the Baltimore Sun.


There is a general impression that the
Virginia foxhounds were all originally
black and tans Austin Blackwell, of Oak
Spring, near Warrenton, who is a member
of the National Hunt Association, imparts
to THE Sum correspondent some inter-
esting lore on this subject.
Colonel Elias Edmonds, of Fauquier,
who figured in the Revolutionary War,
while absent from home, left his son Elias
in charge of his land and hounds. Young
Edmonds made efforts to secure a black
and-tan hound at various points IN
Virginia. but without success. Senator
Graysonis son boosted that he could find
him one. saying: Send to Billy Davis, of
Prince William County" a noted char
acter of the ante-bellum epoch. He has
one you can get"
A servant was dispatched to Davis's
place, and found one old white hound,
which he took back to his young master.
When on another visit to his friend,
Grayson asked: What white hound is
that you have?" Edmonds replied, THAT

which are snow white. They are remark
able for their intelligence, and are known
az the Arab strain. The leader Old
Henry, has hunted for sportsmen from all
parts of the country, and for many years
has been a familiar figure in the hunting
field. He has been known TO carry in his
mouth foxes which he has captured. with
out mutilating them, and to await the ar
rival of all the huntsmen before giving up
his prey.
The late Captain Assheton, an English
man. who emigrated to Fauquier about
thirty years ago, brought with him a find
pack of English hounds, of bulldog mus
cies and tones Of thunder, which he ex-
changed for Arabs. At his death he gave
the remainder OF his pack 10 Mr.. Black

Great success attended the revival meet
ings jest concluded at the First Baptist
Church. To the already large membership
of the church, fifty-seven additional names
were added as a direct result of the SER
vices. DR.. J. L. White was heard with in
terest and his sermons were instrumental
in bringing many into the church. The
pastor, Rev John D. Jordan, continued
the meetings during the early part of last
week, baptizing those who had made pro-
fession of faith and receiving still more as
candidates.
Before the revival services were COM
menced, the membership of the First
Church was larger than that OF any other
In Savannah. The recent additions have
placed 1t far in advance.
The pastor will preach both services to-
day. At the evening service he will preach
a special sermon to young men and baptize
a number. Special seats will be reserved
for young men. It Is probable that at the
morning service the church will invite the

matter Of scenery and costume. More
ever, the plays of his day afford other
proof quite as convincing as the more d.
