The splitting asunder of the demo- cratic party of Arizona on the Smith
 Wilson rock finds the
 NOW republicans on the eve
 THEN. of holding their terri REPUBLI- torial convention. There
 CANS, never was time in the
 history of the party in Arizona when a greater responsibility rested upon republican delegates. While we have felt for weeks that with a strong candidate for delegate to con gress the republicans had an excellent chance of carrying the territory, it must be conceded now, in view of the sensational ending of the democratic convention, with the friends of the rival nominees at daggers drawn, that the outlook for a republican victory could not well be better.
 Much depends upon the action of the coming convention. If weak man be nominated the existing advantage will be thrown away. The convention ought to give us a man who will be more than the equal of Smith or Wilson on the stump and with the experience of cam paign work that will enable him to arouse genuine enthusiasm throughout Arizona in behalf of republican prin- ciples. It would be grievous mistake 10 nominate any man who does not pos sess these qualifications.
 The importance of electing a republi- can delegate to congress this year over shadows every other consideration. The next congress will surely be republican,; William Mckinley will surely be re- elected. That congress and that presi- dent will be more than friendly to d delegate representing a people that will attest at the polls to the overthrow of Bryanism in one Of it's earliest strong holds. Statehood will be the certain reward of a republican victory in Ari- zona this fall.

Scranton, Pa, Aug. By an explo-
sion of gas two buildings on Lackawanna
avenue, in the heart of the business dis
hict, were completely demolished and q
persons were injured by being caught in
the wreckage or struck by flying debris.
The wrecked buildings were the three
story Merchants and Mechanics bank
and adjoining four-story building occu-
pied by the d. l. Phillips Furniture COM
pany and the Scranton carpet factory.
Many of the injured were passengers on
an open trolley car which was directly
in front of the bank building at the mo-
ment of the explosion. A leak in gas
pipe in the cellar of the bank was respon-
sible for the explosion. The janitor de-
tected the odor of gas, and going to the
cellar, struck a match and the explosion
followed. The loss is over $l5O,0OO. All
the injured will recover.

CATARRHs

or inflammation of this delicate pink
membrane.
The system is weakened in VIM
ter. The delicate lining is more
susceptible to irritation or inhamma-
ton, and thus we have pneumonia,
grip, colds, coughs, fevers, ETC., all
catarrhal conditions which may
easily be checked by one catarrh
cure-Pe-ru-na.
That the only way out OF it.
You may dose forever-you will
not be we'll until you try the true
cure and that is Pe-ru-na. You
may think your trouble is some
other disease and not catarrh. Call
it what you will, one thing is sure,
your system is affected and must be
treated, and Pe-ru-na is the only
remedy which reaches the right
place and does cure.

MILLION DOLLAR FIRE.
Flames Swept Through Lumber Dis
trict at Ashland.

Ashland, Wis, Aug. 5.-Fire destroyed
million dollars worth Of property in
the lumber districts of the cl1y. The
flames we've checked after three hours
struggle, before they reached the valua-
bic sawmills and ore docks along the
water front.
Tonight the fire broke out again, and
threatens further heavy loss.
At 1870 fire broke out in the lumber
yards of Barker q Stewart. 1t spread
rapidly to the keystone Lumber COM
pany's yard and in a short time had de-
stroyed almost 5O,OOO,O00 feet of lumber,
incluulng six tramways. Carried by
strong wind, the fire brands started u
blaze in the lime, salt and cement dock,
a quarter of a mile away. The dock
burned like powder. 1t was a quarter
of mile long and was soon reduced to
ruins, together with a warehouse con-
tanning thousands of dollars worth OF
merchandise and several miles of railroad
track.
Four thousand pounds of dynamite was
brought to the scene and distributed all
around the edge of the fire zone. Piles
of lumber and score OF small buildings
we're blown into atoms, and the flames
confined. None of the great sawmills had
been destroyed. The loss is easily $1,000
/ 600. The loss of the Hines firm was $780,
O0O fully insured. At o'clock the wind,
which had steadily favored the fire fight
ers, suddenly veered towards the city and
developed into gale. The alarm was
sounded again and every available piece
of fire apparatus was brought into action
but it appeared probable that the mill OF
Barker & Stewart, Durfee, the Ashland
Iron & Steel company's property and the
Ohio Coal company's dock would be de
stroyed.
At o'clock, when it seemed as II the
whole city was in danger, the wind veer
ed again toward the bay.
At 10 o'clock the fire was checked, eN
cept in one place, and there Is good pros
poet of checking that.
In the Barker & Stewart yards lou
employees, assisting in the dynamitlns
were pinioned between burning piles o
lumber and were seen to 20 down IN IN
fire raging beneath them.

TRADE REPORTS.

New York-Bradstreet report for
last week is as follows:
Trade conditions still favor the buy
err. The general fall demand, though
fair in view of the midsummer condi-
ton, is still below expectations and be-
low year ago; bank clearlngs are at
the lowest for two years past and fail
ures are slightly more numerous,
though no marked tendencies are per-
ceptible. On the other hand, gross rail
way earnings hold their percentage of
gain previously shown, and where
prices are made low enough 10 sa.isIy
buyers, a heavy business is uncovered
and readily booked, pointing to de-
mand being still present and awaiting
disposal.
The crop situation, as a whole, is
better the outlook as to corn is for
100000, 000-bushel crop. Spring wheat
is turning out better in quality and
quantity Unan expected ana there mas
been an unquestionable improvement in
cotton crop conditions. The yield of
apples will be the largest in many
years, and fruits generally are yielding
literally and commanding good prices.
The iron and steel industry fur
nishes the most notable example of re-
duced prices including heavy bust
ness. While the outlook is still a con
fused one, the volume of trade in fin
ished material, notably bars and plates
is very large.
Foundry pig iron has been in better
demand, but at concessions, and the
drift of crude prices generally is to
ward a lower level. More inquiry i:
reported for rails at the west and fol
iron at the south, but ship room capac
ity obstructs business.
The cereals are all lower this week
partly on better crop reports, partly OF
lower cables, but largely on the growth
of bearish feeling after the late reac
ton.
Beef products are generally highe1
on army demand, while tin is seekins
a lower level in sympathy with foreign
markets and increased supplies.
Wheat, including flour shipments foi
the week, aggregate 1927 O3 bushels
against 2,366,743 bushels last week, 4,
711,614 bushels in the corresponding
; week of 1899, ALL ,312 bushels in 1898
3.30S.477 bushels in 1897 and 2,747,S
bushels in 1896.
From July to date this season
wheat exports are 14,56S,S bushels

and 14,426,122 bushels in 1S9S-99.

Cyclone Made a Wide Path.

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 6.-The
town of Hatton, 40 miles southwest of
this city, was struck by a terrific cy-
clone, accompanied by hail and rain, this
morning, doing much damage in the town
and surrounding country. No loss of
life has been reported, though several
people were severely injured in the path
of the storm, which extended from south
west of Hatton to 100 miles in north
easterly direction to st. Hilaire and Thief
River Falls. All the crops that were UNI
harvested in the vicinity of Hatton are
a total loss ana the damage to farm
buildings and stock is heavy. At st.
Hiaire the house and outbuildings OF
John Hendrickson were totally destroyed.
The damage to the buildings generally
in this section were very heavy and the
uncut crops in the path of the storm in
Minnesota are a total loss.

Admiral Remey Cares for Sick.
Seymour Commands at Shanghai.

London, Aug. 2.-The allies began the
advance from Tientsin Wednesday morn
ing. announces an agency bulletin dated
at Shanghai.
1t is assumed that the Americans, Brit
ish and japanese are taking part in this
forward movement, whether other nation
alities are or not. An advance base will
probably be established 20 or 80 miles
nearer Pekin and supplies will be assem-
bled preparatory to a direct stroke at the
capital.
OF the 10000 allies debarked at Pc Chilli
ports, English military observers consider
that 10000 are available for an advance
beyond Tientsin. The Chinese forces, ac-
cording to the vague gatherings of the
allies intelligence officers, up to July "a,
were disposed i'll a great arc 80 miles long
and distant 10 or Is miles. The numbers
and exact location of the several divisions
are utterly unknown. The Pei Ho river
is blockaded by sunken stone-laden junks
for 20 miles beyond Tientsin and farther
up, according to Chinese spies of allies. A
dam has been constructed Tor the purpose
of flooding the low-lying expanse OF coun-
try.
The first engagement of the relief expe-
dition will probably be at Pei Tang, where
the viceroy OF Yulu personally commands.

reinforcements are en- route.
Great activity is noticeable at the Jap
