An eastern democratic paper with a
leaning fora single gold standard quotes
ia prominent delegate to the democratic
convention as saying that Hill said to
him:
Il could knock Is to / out of the DEM
ocratic platform if Croker would onIy
stand by me. Croker knows 16 - / Is a
crank idea. There are not 100 delegates
out of the 800 here who favor it. All
these delegates need IS a leader. Croker
won't lead himself. and he won let me
lead"
It SEEMS. however, that Croker would
not let Hill lave his way, and according
to the delegates story, replied:
Its up to Hill now. That fellow has
been coming to national conventions for
years and strutting about until we are
tired of him. He say The is a democrat,
does he? Well, Bryan does not stan
for him, and I won't, either. If Bryan
wants Is to 1 he is going to get it if the
New York delegation a give 1t to him.
Let Hill go back home and fight us If he
wants to. 1 am not afraid of him.. We
will put him to sleep for good before this
convention is over"
And SO Hill was turned down and sill
| yer went into the democratic platform
not because Croker was for silver, but
because he was against Hill.

The Southwest Miners Asso

The Southwest Miners Asso-
citation has taken up the work
of getting proper signs put up on
the desert. The association
lrges upon the boards of super
visors in the several counties
that immediate action be taken
in the erecting of sign boards at
the points of divergence and
crossing of all trails and roads
in the desert, giving distances
to and the location of water, and
to the camps and towns. 1t is
urged that the work OF exploring
the desert country is greatly re-
tarded and rendered perilous by
reason of the fact that not sign
or indication marks the roads
and watering places from one
end of the desert no the other.
The work OF the pioneer is at all
times attended with great diff
ficulties. He encounters thirst
and hunger, and yet his work
! opens up the stores of wealth
in the mountains to the world.
Without the aid of the sturdy
prospector the west would in
most part still hold undiscOver-
ed the treasure that lies hid in
her mountains, and yet nothing
has been done to help him to
solve the problems of water and
distance. Should this idea of
the Southwestern Miners Asso-
citation be carried out it is high
ly probable that the near future
will see rate of progress un-
equaled before in this western
untry.-RevieW.

About the Mines.

Mr.. Murphy, in his address on
Saturday evening, said that his
mining proclamation blacklist
ing the Spenazuma, Val Verde,
United Verde, Jr.. and United
Verde Extension together with
other properties, had been of
benefit to Arizona. He did not
tell his audience that two weeks
later he had endorsed the United
Verde Extension by telegram to
the Mining and Engineering
Journal; also that the Val Verde
people had made a compromise
whereby they built a smelter on
the branch line in Yavapaicoun-
ty, the Val Verde people paying
for the branch running out to
the smelter; further, that his
friends and himself hobnobbed
with attorney Chase of the Spe-
nazuma and incidentally squared
that proposition. Having made
concessions to three of the four
outfits specifically mentioned,
the cloud was left over all other
mining property in Arizona,
aside from producing mines.
On the arid lands question be
made no explanation Of his ex-
traordinary conduct in going tc
Wichita, Kansas, two years age
to lead the fight for the cessior
of arid lands to the states and
territories. But his address last
Saturday night was ingenious,
showing he had given much
thought to the two points in his
defense, the Yavapai bonds and

PRESCOTT. Oct. u. 1900.

PRESCOTT, Oct. II, 1900.
In the face of a contention
which cannot be otherwise set
tied, and to save party harmony
from destruction, I hereby with
draw from the congressional
race and tender my resignation.
I am grateful to all my friends
for their faithful efforts in my
behalf.
This step is taken after can
did deliberation and is irrevoca
bic, because sure defeat awaited
Mr. Smith and myself, and above
all the destruction of the party
at the polls was sure, if both
continued in the race, but either
can be elected alone.
Therefore, I shall join the
ranks of the voters to secure the
election Of Mr.. Smith, and ]
urge all democrats in Arizona
to unite and give him their cor.
dial and sincere support.
For the success of the party
and the country, | am,
Your obedient servant,

The Maricopa county clique
who were working for Murphy
secretly, have failed in their
little scheme. Col. Wilson had
the moral courage, the patrio-
tism to torego personal ambi-
ton for the good Of his party
and the welfare of the territory.
The contest is now narrowed
down to Smith and Murphy and
as between the two Murphy has
about the same chance Of an
election as d SNOWFALL would
have of lasting through hot

According to the ST. Louis
PostDispatch employees Of the
Southern railroad are urged not
to talk politics while On duty,
as more accidents occur during
a political campaign than at
other times, railroad employees,
in the ardor Of debate, neglect
ing their duty more or less. AS
rule the ordinary political dis
cussion IS pretty fruitless oc-
cupation. Neither disputant is
apt to convince the other Of the
error of his way, and both are
likely to lose their tempers,
while their business, If they have
any, is pretty sure to be neglect
ed. It is the duty of every citi-
zen to thoroughly inform him
self as to the political issues and
situation, but this information
is not usually acquired in heated
discussions on the street corners,
in business Offices, hotel lObbies
