"A vote for Brodie is an endorse ment of the gold standard. ."-Cou- rier. You can't make the people of the east believe that Arizona IS for free silver by electing Brodie." " Ibid.
 A republican rally and welcome to Col. A. O. Brodie will be given in Prescott on Thursday evening. Let every body turn out and show that Prescott appreciates her noble and brave soldiers.
 Our contemporary objects to the use of the late Captain O'NeilPs picture for the decoration of places where republican meetings are being held. Democrats would like to get a monopoly on those pictures, but Captain O'Neill had no warmer friend and admirer than Col. A. O. Brodie.
 Charley Wingfeld, who has been in the employ of the P. & E. road during its construction period, has opened a saloon at Huron, and pro poses shortly 10 open a general merchandise store there. MT. Wingfeld is an enterprising young man, and will make a success of any business he engages in.
 Mir. and Mrs. Joseph Mayer yes terday maintained the reputation their place has enjoyed for a long time in the way of setting up the best meals in the territory. About forty or fifty of the e1cursionists who failed to take their lunches with them were fed at Mayors hotel, and an elegant. meal was served. They have been doing a splendid business there of late, and any one who ever eats a meal there will always make it a point to r. turn when opportunity presents it. self.
 Hon. A. E. Hinton, secretary of the republican county central com mittee of Maricopa county, came up Saturday afternoon on a brief busi- ness trip, returning to Phenix on
 lst evenings train. He says the
 ruDlicans will elect most of the u set m that county, with a good show for a clean sweep.
 There are only two or three pa tients in the hospital at Whipple, and they will likely be removed to the sisters hospital in day or two, and Dr Lindley, with three or four assistants, will remain to care for them, while the remainder of the soldiers will join the regiment in a few days.
 It is quite "amoosin" to witness the desperate straits that the dem ocrals are put to in order to find something to say against John Burns. The only thing so Tar is t5at be is too fat for the place. Without having consulted MT. Burns on the subject the JOURNAL MINRE feels safe in making the promise that in order to accomo- date the democrats he will take a course of dieting and physical train ing after bis election so as to get down to the proper weight for tho discharge of the duties of the office. We know that MT. Burns is too ac- commodating a man to refuse this.
 In Wilson We have a forcible speaker" says the Couner. Yes so far as force of sound is concerned. Col. Wilson makes a noise that can be heard for a long distance. The voice of a territorial delegate in congress amounts to just the am0ut of noise it produces and nothing more. The work of dele gate is done in committees and with the various departments and an overpowering sound in such places amounts to nothing. While there are times that he is allowed the courtesy of speakin' T the halls of congress, the G Cn all questions is formed ia :r@l- Llittee room. While Col. Wilson is a great sound producer he is not magnetic or convincing speaker and in "battle which is waged between intellectual giants" he would cut sorry figure although he is some what of physical giant.
