The mules. The paymaster was reported to be in San Francisco on his sum mer vacation. when the facts in the case were that everybody concerned couldn't have pooled bank accounts and dug up enough to pay his car fare. He was in Williams living on mountain ozone, and like Micaw Der waiting for something to turn up.' Frank Murphy alone was left to rustic. Had the work stopped at that iuncture, there would to this day been no north and south railroad into Phenix.
 Frank Murphy is not made of the stuff that gives up because the tide is heavy against him. He raised the funds to finish the road to Phenix, but has been an invalid, compara- lively speaking, ever since. Wenever spoke to Frank Murphy a dozen times in our life, but delight to doff our head gear to grit and ability. whether it be found in acquaintance or stranger, friend or foe. Frank Murphy, in business way, has done more for Arizona than any man in it He is a constructionist and delights in building up. Examine the phre- nological makeup of his head and then the head of one of his assailants and we'll bet dollars to doughnuts there'l be a vast difference in the Bump of Destructiveness" in his head and that of his assailants. A big portion of this world delights in sitting around and tearing down. They have not ability enough to con struct and bnild up. That's what makes the task so difficult for the men who are trying to better condi- tions. Of course he is helping his brother to be elected. He'd be worse than an ingrate not to do so.
 Governor Murphy has always been a friend to Arizona. Why, even hon est democrats admit he is the best governor Arizona ever had. He knows the territory like a book, is in sympathy with the national admins tration, and has the respect of lead ing men of the nation. He's the man to send to congress. Frank is help ing him possibly but he doesn't need to do so. He will be sent any way. All this bond boodling" and other tommy rot" argument against him gives intelligent men nauseous pains in the adjacent region just below the solar plexus. Governor Murphy loses sight of money in his enthusiasm to carry public measure to success for the public good. He probably wants money the same as iny other worthy servant and he's the kind of a man we like to see have plenty of money as he proves his innate worth by his being liberal circulator of the vile stuff" as a first and up-to-date newspaper man.

DEMOCRATIC RALLY.

The democratic meeting at the court house last evening was fairly well attended, but there was a marked feeling of embarrassment manifested on the part of the speakers. The hitherto opposing forces of democracy, 1t was plainly evident, had not yet accustomed themselves to the new order of things the and harness of har- mony had not yet adjusted themselves to the wearers. Three speakers were in evidence as follows: Mark Smith, candidate for delegate to congress, Col. J. F. Wilson. late semi-candidate for delegate to congress and John C. Hemdon, plain citizen and attorney Each of the speakers selected a para mount issue of his own, one hammer ing on "I6 to l" and another on mili- tarism and imperialism.
 Mir. Smith made some glaring mis- statements in his speech, which are not expected in a candidate seeking the important position he does. One which every school boy knows is not true was in speaking of Governor Murphy's term of office as delegate he stated that both houses of congess and the president were republican As MT. Murphy was elected in No vember 1894 and took his seat as dele gate March f, 1895, serving till March 1 1897, the date of the inauguration oi Presidant Mckinley, this falsehood is a most glaring and inexcusable one Nr. Smith only demonstrated the hopelessness of his case, as he con siders it, when he had to leave the path of truth and enter into such misstatements as the above in an at tempt to injure his opponent. A mis statement which could not be so eas fly disproven might have some force and effect. Mir. Smith took occasion to refer to other matters of a similar nature which will receive attention later.
 Mir. Herndon paid a high compli ment to the Journal-Miner by quoting from its columns of two years ago il regard to statehood, the statements therein made which were of some what of a prophetic nature, having been demonstrated to be correct SC far as the admission of Arizona is concerned.
 The speakers failed to arouse any special enthusiasm in the audience al though the appearance of Colonel Wilson brought forth considerable cheering and must have been sort of dampener on Mir. Smith, whose ap- ] pearance was received with indif- ference.

By the Governor: c. H. AYERS, Secretary of the Territory of Arizona MORE TROUBLE
 FOR THE TWINS.
COchise will Have Double
 Header Convention Too.

John Hughes, of the Tucson Star, telephoned the Courier yesterday that he had just returned from at tending the Cochise county demo- cratic convention. He said that Smith was endorsed under the follow ing circumstances: Two-thirds of the delegates had left the convention hall under impression that the con vention had adjourned. The Bisbee delegation had remained in the hall and passed the resolution endorsing Mark Smith. Mir. Hughes states that nine men out of ten in Tombstone are for Wilson and that Cochise county will go for Wilson.-Courier.
 A telegram this afternoon was re ceived in Prescott from a Wilson ad- herent, stating that the Smith adher- ents had overstepped the bonds of political decency and in an under handed manner had indecently usurped the right to rule. The Will son men, so the telegram stated, would reconvene the convention and condemn the action of endorsing Smith, as they were unfairly and treacherously handled and in direct violation of a pre-arranged course to let the twins fight it out, so far as a county convention endorse ment goes in Cochise. This means that there is some more sour milk to be vomited in the congressional cradle.
