FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2l. 1898.

The Republicans of Arizona are
making vain attempt to elect
their ticket with a hurrah for pat
riotism and the old flag. But how
can they get around the fact that,
although it is nearly two years
since Mckinley was elected Pres
ident, not solitary old soldier is
holding Federal position in the
Territory of Arizona. The tin
horns, camp bummers and star
rousters hvae all been recognized
but the Union soldier has been
strangely ignored. We wonder If
they can whoop Brodie into Office
with such a record.-Florence 7rt0'
