A LOST CAUSE.

The Republican is not to be deterre.l
 by the abuse of democratic papers in
 this territory from characterizing i'll
 proper terms the action of Arizona in
 sending a free silverite to a
 sound money congress and in
 favor of an exploded theory. The coun- l try at large knows that Arizona made
 fool Of itself last month, and the mouthings Of hide-bound ' sixteen to- one organs will not change this view
 The free silver issue is dead. and Ari-
 zona CT Colorado or Utah CT any other
 s:ate or territory with free silver no-
 tious cannot galvanize it into life. The Republican has the satisfaction of
 knowing that it's policy regarding sil- yer is in. line with the sentiment Of the country at large. The Review of Re views gives the status of the free sil- yer cause in the following able article which we commend to the consIdera- tion of the Prescott Courier, the Jerome News, the Arizona Bulletin and other Arizona papers that are trying 10 spread the fiction that the sixteen -7o- one idea is still strong in the country:
 "It happens that the states thst will be represented ill the senate by Gound money republicans comprise not only considerable numerical majority Of fha forty-fve commonwealths Of the 7Jnfon but also include probably more than two-thirds Of the population of the country and more than tliree-fourths of it's wealth. The political co .uplex- ion of the United States senate--with it's six-year tenure and its plan for re- tiring one-third of the members every two years-is not subject to very rap i'd fluctuations. As a result of this as a4practical policy of the United States is blocked for at least six or eight years. Many of those who have had their serious doubts about the gold standard have at least been discerning enough to perceive that uncertainty in the monetary system of the United States is exceedingly detrimental to the prosperity of the country After the election two years ago we did not hesi- tate to declare that for practical pur- poses the cause of free silver had been placed on the shelf along with other lost causes, and that the best thing in the world to do was to Accept the exist ing monetary. standard. raise croDs, carry on business and consider that the period of good times had made its ad- vent All this was true enough two years ago, although many people de- nied it There wifi n6f be sc" many to deny it now We are more likely n this country to turn the republic into a monarchy inside Of the next half dozen years than we are to change the gold standard for the monetary sysrem advocated in the Chicago platform of 1896. This is merely an observation touching things as they are, and with out the slightest reference to what one might prefer For the present and for some years to come the cause of free silver in the United States is thorough ly and hopelessly defeated. Surely there can be no transcendent virtue in stubbornly denying fact that is as patent as the rising of the sum-

The taxpayers of Phoenix are to be given an opportunity to vote on January 12 on the proposition to bond the city in $265. 900 for the construction of a water works and sew craze system, or in $150,000 for the water works alone. There is no question as to the needs of the city in this direction. 4 system of the character required would make Phoe- nix a better place to live in and woulG attract capital and population People naturally gravitate to towns that have good water and good sewerage for these suggest cleanliness and thrift and give a town standing.

Matt Escula Badly Cut
About the Head by
a Countryman.
Quarreied Over q Card Game
They Were Playing For All There
Was IN Ia and the Loser Accused
the Other or Cheating.

| There was a stabbing affair In Michael
sons saloon last Saturday evening in
which Matt 'Escula was badly cut Ut
about the head by fellow couutryman
IL is the fret stabbing affair to take
pace in any OF the local saloons for some
little time. Ii occurred early in the even.
ing and was the result OF game OF
cards
Escula and his friend had been play
ing cards quietly together for over an
hour. There was no one else in the game
and they were supposed TO be indulging
in little friendly game all by themselves
when all OF sudden they began TO talk
angrily to one another across the table.
1t then developed that they had been
playing for all there was IN it and the
losing man did not like the way things
we're going and accused his opponent OF
cheating One word led to another and
before long they came to blows. Before
many blows had been struck one OF the
men pulled out a common pocket knife
and began using it with effect on Escula's
head. He stabbed him in three places
and although the wounds were not very
deep they made the blood flow freely.
One cut was IN the neck and the other
two In the back OF the head.
BY this time some OF the men 10 the
saloon interfered and separated the two
men. Marshal Beck was notified and
arrested the man that did the cutting
and took the other to a physician.
1t required several stitches to sew up
the wounds. The offending man will be
up before Judge Fisher today to answer
the charge.

almost an imperceptible speck on the

when it reaches the footlights. A por-

King Bests Burns.

Tot the Calumet boy. King won four
out OF the five falls.
He came home on the afternoon train
yesterday and has been busy ever since
receiving the congratulations OF his
friends. King won every fall except the
catch-as-catch-can style. He had hardly
hoped to win that fall as il is Burns fav.
orite style Of wrestliDg. but the fact that
he won the collar-and-elbow and the
Greco-Roman style against his well

1t is generally best to curb our impa.
thence before giving it vent in words, az
at such times ones language may convey
different idea from its real meaning.
Miss Kate Sanborn, in her Abandoning
an Adopted Farm, relates her annoyance
at being besieged by agents, reporters,
curiosity seekers:
was SO perpetually harassed that !
dreaded to see stranger approach with
an air of business. The other day was
just starting for drive when / noticed
the usual stranger hurrying on. Putting
my head out of the carriage, said, in a
petulant and weary tone:
do you want to see me?''
The young man stopped, smiled and re-
piled courteously, 1T gives me pleasure
to look at you, madam, but was going
farther on"
