According to appointment the spe-

at the residence of R. M. Couch with
an attendance Of eleven (D. The

Comparing. the condition of our
streets and walks year ago, with the
present, without reference to the un
avoidable cutting up the water works
contractors) it was acknowledged that
they are now in much worse condi-
ton, as regards weeds and rubbish,
and it was determined to appeal to
our citizens to interest themselves to
become members and pay their dollar
a year, even if they have not the time
to attend all the meetings. The work
of an improvement society is gratui-
tous, and on different lines from the
duties of the town fathers, and not ex-
pected to encroach upon, but work in
harmony with every well directed eff
fort to beautify and improve cur vii

there will be hearty response to So
licitations for membership when given
an opportunity by our appointed
committee.

SENATOR GoRMAN's VIEWS.

senator German, of Maryland, says
that he will not attend the Kansas
City convention. but will be represent
ed thee by proxy. In speaking of
his dectsion in this matter he said:
1t would not be wise for me to go
to the convention and for the same
reason prominent New York gentlemen
who have been spoken of as delegates
should stay away. If the silver issue
is to go TO the rear and give place
to the vital and all-important question
of Imperialism, it must be done by Mr..
Bryan's close personal and political
friends in the west. If eastern men
should attempt it a spirit of opposi-
ton and antagonism might be excited
which would do more harm than good.
Many of the men who were fore
most for the 16 to l plank in the Chi
cagO platform are now IN favor of
contesting this election ON the great
questions which have arisen since
1896. Strange as it may seem many
of the leading pOpulists favor this
policy. Many people who We're in
favor of silver free coinage In 1896
have told me that they are satisfied
the question has settled itself since
then. They say they always favored
hard money. gold and silver. as against
fat paper money. and they did not be

upon Mr. Bryan himself. If he de
cides to make his contest upon thi:

INCREASE OF MONEY.

II is shown by the figures that, as
compared with the year 1890. there
was an increase in circulation on April
l. this year, of not far from 5000, O00.-
600. The interesting fact is revealed
by the statistics that the year 1896
represented the lowest level of cir
culatiOn since the year 1890. The
amount of gold coin and gold certii-
Gates in circulation is greater by over
S277, 100000 than it was in 1890. and
it is no surprise to learn that. as in
the case of the circulation as 4 whole,
the portion of it represented by gold
and gold certificates was at its lowest
ebb for the decade in 1896 The COM
parsons suggested by these figures are
particularly gratifying, looking back

amount per capita. as well as the total
volume of circulation. stood ut the
highest mark reached in the history

OUR VISITORS LEAVE.
General Russell A. Alger and Party
Take Their Departure Eastward
This Morning.

General Russell A Alger and party
had their private car attached to the
northbound train this morning on
their return trip east. During their
brief stay in Arizona they have been
very busy and have lost no time in
sight seeing and investigating some of
the possibilities of the territory. Their
visit was somewhat short from the
fact that Colonel Hecker, one of the
party. is delegate at large from
Michigan TO the Philadelphia conven-
ton and he will go direct there, in
order to reach that city day or two
before the convention meets.
The party reports having had most
enjoyable visit and We're surprised at
very many things which they saw
during their brief stay.
On Monday. June +. they left De
troit in private car of the Michigan
Central railroad. Henry Russell mot

ported, one of the party. being the
general counsel of that company.
They We're met at Albuquerque by
Gov n O. Murphy and they arrived
in Prescott on Friday afternoon and
were driven around the town during
the evening, being entertained at din
ner by Mr.. and Mrs. f. B. Gage. and
at 1870 o'clock the same night they
left by special train for PheniX. being
accompanied from here by E. b. Gage
and Jadge R. E. Sloan. At $50 a. m.
! Saturday they were taken in a tally
no and driven around Phenix, visiting
the Indian school. orange groves and
other places of interest there. Return
| ing from this drive about s O'Clock the
party took breakfast at Hotel Adams
and at 9 O'Clock they started on their
return trip northward. stopping en-
route at the Congress mine. where they
were entertained by Mr.. Gage and
! Superintendent Staunton and We're
shown through the underground work
ings of that property. They arrived
/ in Prescott about 10 o'clock ON Satur-
| day night and bright and early on Sun
day morning We're taken by special
train out to Yaeger station on the line
of the 2. & E. railroad whence they
were driven across Lonesome valley
to the Jaeger canyon mine. in which
some of the party with other Detroit
capitalists are interested. The day
was spent there and the party arrived
in Prescott about $50 Sunday even
ing. A portion of Sunday evening was
spent at the residence of Mr.. and
Mrs E. B. Gage. and at o'clock this

the result in 1898. which was. in turn.
better than that of 1896.
Not even the most optimistic repub-
lican had expected this. The best
that was hoped for was a favorable
comparison with 1S96-the preSiden-

between democrats and populists. and
the fight was made on distinctly ma
