 We congratulate the republicans uf Pima county on he fact that they are united, and that the earnest and honest desire of all of uS is tO nonl- inate men who can he trusted with public affairs, who will accept an ntIice as public trust, and whpSe names and characters will be platform m and of themselves. guaranteeing economy, honesty and faithful service; and with lhe>e We pledge hearty, d united aHd aii earnest sappart.
 We reaiiirm the me hunured prin- ciples uf the republican party, which has successfully conducted the cOnn- try through domestic and foreign war, safely guided it. through the period ot great civic and commercial progress, and in he most lryi"g times of uur couutrJ'S history, it has been at the lirlnI, successfully steering The Ship of Slate. We therefore insist that in the new aud grave duties now thrust upon us by the gage of hattie, tue cpndnct of our government is in safe hands and 1t will be safer in the future if left to the management of tue republican party.
 As American citizens, although resident in territory, we believe that we are entitled tn all'the righte and privileges enjoyed by those res idnp lu Stafrs We beaese that we shunld be admitted Co -lafrhund. but, ialiiHg 70 tnls, We nclieye pNal we should be given The ri hh to select our territorial officers, apd thp Judges 0f our courts, ia life Sani mauner as we now select our copnly sflicers, aud we strongly adhere tu the true Am erican doctrine that he Nhu shall receive majority vote of our uwu peuple shall alone be elegible tu serve.
 We condemn the disgracefnl record of the last denucralic legislature of Arizona, which, ny juggling with statutes, turned louse without trial persons under indictment for homicide and which also legalized the illegal and dishonest acts of defaulIing cOun- ly officials.
 In unmeasured terms we desire to express our condemnation of the mi>managemenL of county affairs by the democratic officials of Pima cnuu- ty; aud we pledge 0ur republican candidates tu an earnest efflrt tO reform the abuses of he past and to give To us a conservative, economical aud honest administrations.
 In conclusion. we take the liberty of expressing the hope that the repnb- lcans of Puma cnunty will unite with Us in the earnest and honest support ut our candidates and will work not SD much for individuals as for q straight tirket. If they will do this we can promise them that Pima county will once more enroll herself as republican county, which every taxpayer and honest man in the counoy should mnSt heartily desire.
