would have remained at home under such circumstances, but Colonel Bro- die felt that his first duty was to his country, and he bade his sick wife good bye, kissed the little stranger that had but a few days before appeared, and went to the front with the Rough Riders. This is the kind Of man the people Of Arizona have the honor Of voting foT this fall. Arizonians love d hero. and they all know the gallant lieusenant-colonel Cf the Rough Riders.

 A colored trooper Of the Ninth cav airy was here yesterday. It was this cavalry that was closest to the Rough Riders at the battle of San Juan hill. The trooper told the story of the bat tie to an interested group of HOibrOOk people, and lie related an incident Of that attack which will interest Arizol- ians. Our regiment was ahead Of the Rough Riders," said he, when we were ordered to get down and let the Rough Riders advance. The cowboys went over us with rush and a yell, and when they were in front of us and On the run they yelled back: Come cn cocnsn and we wen5. These Rough Riders were fighters, and you Arizona folks are right in giving th5m every thing you've got The trooper went ou- tc Fort Apache last night.
 
 The people Of Winslow were very much disappointed when Colcnel Bro die and his party did not come las. night. People were thsre from far away ranches and the town hall was packed. As sccn as word was received Of the delay Of the special train, the crowd at the hall clsared the floor and enjoyed a dance. They will give Cole nel Brodie a rCusing reception on Oc- tober IS.
 The Brodie parSy is made up of a jolly lot of men. The hardships of campaigning are frightened by good stories, and the presence Of Judge Wright of Tucson is sufficient testi- mony to their merit and laught-pro- voking qualities. Governor Murphy is also a good story teller and E. s. Clark of Flagstaff has a fund of new onss which he will no doubt tell on the hustings during the campaign. Colonel BrCdie enjoys these storiss very zluch,
 
 
 John N. Hall, Of the Rough Riders, who was shot in the left shoulder, and Sergeant J. H. Utting, Pho5nix Rough Rider, who passed shrough all the bat ties without scrat-h, wer1 on the train which was boarded by the Bro- die party at Holbrock this morning. The greeting given them by thair com mander, Colonel Brodie, was hearty and sincere, and the Phoenix soldiers were glad of chance to visit with him. Both MT. Hall and MT. Utting are thin, and show plainly the hard ships they encountered, but they are feeling good. and the fact that they are so near their Phoenix friends no doub- has a great deal to do with that.

 Speaking of Norman Orme, Colonel Brodie said: q saw the boy fall, and went to him right away. He said, I guess l am done for, major 1 told him that he would come cut all right, and 1 gave him a drink of water and went on up the firing line.

ALTOGETHER GREAT.

The magnificent courage and
patriotism of the American peo-
pie is symbolized by the splendid
achievement of our navy at Ma
Mia. No Drawer or better dis
ciplined men ever trod the deck
of battleship, no bolder or ADLER
captains ever gave command,
than those who destroyed SPLEEN
did Spanish fleet in the time of a
noon day nap. 1t was a glorious
victory and has caused the heart
of the grandest nation on earth to
throb with joy and pride. But it
has done more, it has filled the
old war like nations with amaze
ment and CONSERVATION. The
thought in many a monarch's
heart is, how long will it be be-
fore thrones begin to tremble, if
a self-governing people can rise
to such deeds of glory and valor?
And the thought in the minds of
semi-serfs the world over is, we,
too, one day will raise up a Dew
ey to sunder the shackles CT king
ly rule. Perhaps, before this is
printed the news of another bril-
liant event will be flashed under
the ocean, and SIMPSONS name
will be linked in glory with Dew
ey's; and then will go forth
from Washington the command,
on to Madrid and on to Havana.
The next chapter will contain but
two words: Unconditional Sur
render. The great Republic is
still altogether great, grand and
glorious.

HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF.

Some of our local business men
are alarmed at the exchange of
pleasantries between the town
papers, and think that it will
work great injury to the COM
munity at large. In this, we
think they are mistaken. An
open and fair criticism of public
men and measures, never yet did
harm to any but the deserving.
1t is the secretly peddled sland-
er-"The whispered tale, that,
like the failing Nile, no fountain
knows. The tongue that ticks
the dust, but, when it safely
dares, is prompt to sting"-that
disrupts and destroys the general
peace and prosperity. An alleged
correspondent announces that he
is bored to the point of distraction
on account of what he is pleased
to term triangular fight;" yet,
we imagine, this same sensitive
creature would incline his ears by
the hour to the unfolding of a
nasty neighborhood SANDER which
originated in the envy and hatred
of some character assassin. But
if our business men think that this
controversy is based on any per
sonal ill-will on the TRIBUNE's
side, they should at once disabuse
their minds on that point. The
personal illusions are mere Incl
dents to the main contention.
Attention is called to two facts
fresh in the public mind. Acting

Gil have passed an illegal claim, the
lar provides a remedy; but such
remedy is not found in the assH"tP-
tiiom of desbotic PozOer BY the NUM-
cibaI executfge." Mr.. Gwinn's
dominating characteristic shines
through every act of his life.
While speaking of his other viz
tues why did not "Subscriber"
mention all of them? An "as-
sumption of despotic power" is not
an attainment to be slurred over
when encomiums on Mr.. Gwinn
are the serious business of public
writers. We suggest to "Sub-
scriber" arevision of his panegyric.

AMONG the items in the pro-
ceedings of the board of county
commissioners is one of a bill for
$500 to reimburse the Caldwell
New Board of Trade. The COM
missioners very justly disallowed
it. If the Caldwell New Board OF
trade was foolish enough to
promise Mr.. Gillette $500 or any
other sum, the board of trade
ought to pay it. 1t occurs to US
that the people of Canyon county
would do well to serve notice on
Messrs Gillette-Herzog that un-
less they stopped the hold-uP
business, they would have
bridge on their hands without
any convenient place to put II.
This monkeying with Messrs
Gillette-Herzog is becoming in
sufferably ridiculous. The idea
of a bridge company that had the
temerity to enter upon an illegal
contract, coming here and levy
ing tribute upon the people OF a
town and county-but, keep Sll'

in which appeared the foregoing

upon the pernicious advice OF IN
terested persons, the county com
missioners last fall called an cleo
ton TO do something which it was
impossible for any county eiec-
ton to do and which no county,
if it could, ought to do That
absurd action of the commission
ers cost the county possibly
$1,000. Resulting from this tiasco,
some 5000 or $500 of expenses
in litigation have accrued. All
told, in connection with the Gill
ette-Herzog bridge business,
some $1,000 or $4,000 of the peo-
pies money has been unneces-
sarily squandered. Because the
TRIBUNE has seen fit to crltlClse

and that will retard the develop
ment of our town, County and
State. Pigs feet! Recently a
distinguished citizen tried to real
ize 5000 on a $1oo bug book,
but the TRIBUNE is admonished
not to mention it above a whisper
because it will drive capital away
to do so. Suffering Moses!
Some years ago the Republican
party Of Idaho succeeded in elect
ing to fill the State offices about
as corrupt and incompetent lot
of individuals as ever disgraced a
commonwealth. A little Repub-
lican paper down on the south
east border, commented freely
on a few of the deviIish tricks OF
the outfit, and Immediately went
up a cry from Republicans all
over the State: "Oh, stop it, stop
it, or you will hurt the party"
Well, the llittle paper told them
that if a printed description of the
character and deVilment of the
Republican State administration
would hurt the party, the sub
stance of the administration
would annihilate it. Our bust
ness men may derive consolation
from the fact that those corrupt
and incompetent officers were
sternally retired, but the party
prospered immensely after cleans
ing itself. History often repeats

the fact that the anonymous com
munications in last weeks Record
were elaborated under the eye of
the management, and treat them
as the genuine expressions of
actual subscribers and peacemak-
ers, animated by laudable pur-
poses.
"Subscriber," by his own con-
fession, is a man of consequence,
a man of wisdom and discrimina-
ton, and the amplitude of his
souls vibration is potent for peace
and justice. He has been nauseat-
ed by the vibratiuncles of the little
whelps which surround and annoy
him, and he is moved to solemn
protestation. He enters the arena
as an impartial and authoritative
abiter, and straightway devotes
himself to glowing and picturesque
laudations Of Mr.. Gwinn and
frantic denunciations of Mr.. Nor
rison; yet, in the name of the pat
rons of the press, he gravely pro-
tests against such unwarranted
use" of newspaper space. All of
which goes to show that, in "Sub-
scriber's" estimation, praise of MIR.
Gwinn and abuse of Mr.. Morrison
is legitimate and commendable
matter for publication, profitable
to subscribers in general and in
teresting to the public; while if
Mr.. Morrison be favorably refer
red to, even inferentially, and Mr..
Gwinn subjected to fair criticism,
it becomes, at once, an unwar-
ranted and intolerable Caring of
personal grievances" So much
it will be seen depends on whose
OK is being gored. "Mr. Gwinn, !"
says "Subscriber," "has always
been found close up TO the head
of every enterprise looking to the
development of this section"
That need not be denied. But
seeing that so many of these zen
terprises" have been Choked to
death, the figure employed is
rather an unhappy one. "His
name," says Subscriber" "has
been found on all subscription lists
to raise money for public roads,
for bridges, for building the court
house that the whole of Canyon
county now enjoys, for fighting
for the division of old Ada county
and for every public purpose for
which money has ever been
needed in this community" That
would be brilliant record were
it not for a strange fatality which
seems to attach to all of Mr..
Gwinn's benevolent operations.
His contributions towards roads
and bridges have better served
to emphasize his prudence and
sagacity than his generosity. The
washout at the wagon bridge two
years ago, operated in the main
as a public calamity, but enabled
Mr.. Gwinn to secure profitable
employment for idle teams and
distribute patronage among his
friends, making him at once pros
porous and popular. The allusion
to the division of old Ada county,
also revives unpleasant recollec-
tons. Mr.. Gwinn's name, no
doubt, occupied a CONSPICUOUS
place on the subscription list, and
he was also first lord of the treas
ury, and to this day no satisfactory

Gwinn's part to conceal his liber-
atty, but there is unfortunately
nothing in his life or reputation
which would render him liable
to a suspicion of modesty. In
deed, it is credited to him, as a
distinguishing mark of his char
acter, that never is he freer from
coyness than when engaged in
self -adulation, and never more
pathetically eloqent than when
picturing himself as an unappre-
ciated paragon. Therefore, we
may, with much assurance, dis
card bashfulness as the cause of
his Discrimination to account for the
manner of distributing the county
division fund, and credit it to mo-
tives of prudence unaffected by
nobler impulses. "Tell him the
people do not forget these things"
cries Subscriber" as he warns
to his subject. 1t would be a need
less exertion of lungs. Mr.. Gwinn
himself has sung the praises of
his own exploits with such indie
fatigable energy that they have
really become a distress to the
community. And still there is no
prospect of relief. Hired limners
are engaged in adjoining in rich
and fanciful colors the record of
his deeds. But 'SubsCriber" is
ooercome with indignation when
he reflects that he has obliged the
hero of his perfervid romance to do
and suffer so much, while the vii
lain, Mr.. Morrison, has been per-
mitted to loll about in a state of
immobility. AS the TRIBUNE is
not engaged in the business Of
apotheosizing common clay, we
shall leave Mr.. Morrison to work
out his own glory. Honest men,
like virtuous women, require no
trumpeters. We may, however,
be excused for referring to state
ment of fact, made by "Sub-
scriber," by applying an interroga-
tory or two: Was not the ques-
ton of the legality of the town
incorporation raised in anticipation
of a bond issue? Was it not ne
ccssary to settle that question be-
fore bonds could be placed? Did
not the town council arrange for
an agreed case? Did not the
district court hold the incorpora-
ton invalid? Did not Mr.. Morri-
son absolutely refuse to carry the
case up to the supreme court
when he was offered a fee to do
so? Finally, did not the supreme
court virtually acknowledge the
invalidity of the course pursued
in adopting the new organization,
when it rested the whole case
upon the fact of time and aqui-
escence? The legal existence of
Caldwell rests, not upon the legal
ity of the Incorporating process,
but upon a statute of limitations
defined in an emergency decision
justified solely upon grounds of
public policy, and the court virtu-
ally says SO. Subscriber" touch

The Cuban speeches in the Senate
yesterday were so hot that Senator
Hale, of Maine. the defender of the
Spanish faith, was compelled to reply
particularly TO the remarks OF Mr.
Cannon.
The Utah Senator made no pretense
to lowery language. He drove home at
the Senate with strong and vigorous
blows, and il was his statement that the
patriots found their main support in
the United states that caused -. Hale
to vince and enter his protest against
the assertions Of Mr.. Cannon. Mr. Can
non had an object in view when he
entered upon that line OF thought His
speech was intended for Spanish con-
sumption, and il is the hope OF the
friends of Cuba that Spain viii take
exceptions to The admissions made on
the floor OF the Senate by a United
States Senator, which admissions are
in direct line with the charges that
have been made by Spain in her con
tention that this Government is not
effectually preventing the extending OF
aid and sucoor TO the insurgents.
Nh Mason's remarks were OF
the ringing character peculiar to
the man. He never attacks a
SUBJECT in debate but that he
does it from the bottom of his heart,
and pours hts hole soul into it There
Vas no doubt as to his feelings yesIeU-
day, and his denunciafion of Spanish
misrule and Spanish barbarity left
nothing further TO be said. Mr.. Mason
was frequently interrupted by ap-
piause, much of which came from the
ladies' gallery So frequent was this
interruption that the Vice President
was compelled to warn the galleries OF
the violation OF the rule. and threaten
TO clear them IL il was persisted in.
1t was red letter day for Cuba. The
galleries We're crowded to their fullest
capacity, and many hundreds OF people
stood in the corridors all afternoon i'm
patiently waiting TO ind a way to get
where they might hear the words of the
friends of Cuban liberty. Hundreds
were disappointed and left the building
without getting within earshot. The
diplomatic gallery was the only one
that showed any vacant seats. Among
those present in that gallery Were the
Brazilian minister, some of his at
taches. and Minister Hatch Of the Ha-
