HANNA TO STAY EAST.
Chairman of Republican Party Finds
More Work Than Was Expected.

New York. Aug. Ex-senator NJ. A.
Hanna has decided to remain in the east
much longer than he expected. Mr.. Hanna
stated last night that he might not de-
part for the west for more than three
weeks. When he began the campaign
work at the Republican national head
quarters in this city his plan was to re-
main here only long enough to map out
the campaign and then go to Chicago He
has decided, however, that the exigencies
of the campaign require his continued
presence in the east. So instead of va

Elbron next Saturday. as he intended, he

According to several morning papers,
one of the considerations that influenced
Mr.. Hanna to prolong his stay here was
the news that the Democratic national

THE FAIR.

The County Fair which opened
at Thatcher yesterday reflects
great credit on the Farmers In
stitute, under which the fair is be-
ing managed and shows plainly
what can be accomplished with a
little organization.
The press of the county has ad-
vocated, for a number of years, the
holding Of q county fair, but peo-
pie seemed completely at sea as
to how to begin, under whose man
agement it should be and where it
should be held until the GUARDIAN
suggested that the Farmers Insti-
tute was the proper organization
to handle il and Thatcher the
proper place to hold it; that solved
the problem. 1t was largely due
to the persistent efforts of this pa
per that the Farmers Institute was
formed. The present fair as re-
suit of this organization is very
gratifying.
Prof. Measer, as president Of the
Institute has worked persistently
to make the fair success and
look through the buildings and
grounds convinces the visitor that
he has attained his object.
The display of the production of
professional and mechanical art,
display, the farmers pro
duce and the fruits of the horti-
culturist, and the display of the
thoroughbred live stock together
with other fine exhibits was q
pleasing surprise to all.

POLITICAL BLUNDERs.

The republican party is noted
for its blunders, even in localities
where it holds the balance of pow
er. In localities where its mem
bers are in the minority its blund-
ers are still more pronounced.
In the late convention with its
characteristic greed for Office men
were placed upon the ticket with
out their knowledge or consent in
the vain hope that "for the good
of the party" they would remain.
Three of these gentlemen, how
ever, have positively refused to
stand the work of the bosses.
They readily recognized that they
were placed in nomination for the
purpose of giving strength to a
very weak ticket and they do not
propose to offer themselves as a
sacrifice in the interest Of those
who were placed upon the ticket
for revenue only,
The first to withdraw was II.
Weech, nominated for the assemb.
ly; this created CONSERVATION in
the G. o. p. Then Joe Terrill
learned that he had been nominat-
ed for sheriff and he promptly de-
clined the honor, This created q
stampede and the central commit
tee was hastily called together and
the two vacancies filled with the
names Of gentlemen who were not
present, thus carrying the blunder
to the superlative degree.
About the time the committee
meeting got through filing up the
gaps Geo. w. Wells, nominee for
assessor, positively withdrew,
These three Withdrawals make
the republican ticket a positive
wreck and has created consterna-
ton in the hearts of the bosses.
THE latest news is, that as soon
as Col. Hooker found that he had
been placed upon the ticket, he
emphatically refused 20 run.

A DIsGRACEFUL AFFAIR.

The attempt of two or three dis.
gruntled politicians to send Il con-
testing delegation from Maricopa
county to the territorial democrat.
ic convention, is the most disgrace
ful thing in the history of the
party in this country. The contest
between Col. Wilson and Marcus
A. Smith was fairly and squarely
fought to finish in the county
convention, The majority of the
convention was clearly for Smith
before and after the permanent or
ganization, as was indicated by
every ballot wherein delegate
question was the issue. The CON
test movement has but little sup
port aside from the three men who
are pushing it, and it has the hearty
condemnation of all true demo.
Gratis, whether they have been for
Wilson or Smith. That the in.
terests of the county ticket are be-
ing jeopardizcd by these men in
order that their personal spleen
may be gratified is recognized by
all, Their action is both disgrace
full and undemocratic.--Tempe

dicates of England. 1t is said,
upon good authority, that $780,
100000 of bonds were issued by
the Egyptian government, only so
per cent of their face value having
been received by them, the debt
drawing so enormous q per cent
of interest it has now become so
large that every acre of land titled
is taxed SO a year. In other
words the people are slaves. Both
the lash and Imprisonment are
used to wiring the taxes from the
people, and still what are called,
by Mckinley, the most civilized
and enlightened nations of the
world look on with perfect com
placency and without concern.
The English people have never
been benefited one cent by colonial
possessions. Most of them have
revelled in poverty and misery.
A few wealthy people in England
own all the property there. Those
few are the ones who exploit the
British colonies and amass great
fortunes. From their exploits no
money reaches the treasury any
more than it will reach our treas
ury, by permitting, as is intended,
a few American millionairs to ex-
ploit the Philippine islands, Cuba
and Puerto Rico.
1t is claimed that England as
sisted us during the Spanish war;
that England stood in the breach
and kept other European powers
from interfering in behalf of
Spain and that we are under obi
cations to England. But such
claims have not, and cannot be
substantiated. Where and when
did England perform any service
in our hehalf during the Spanish
war. No man can point it out.
From the beginning of our history
down to the present day England
has been our enemy while most
other nations have been our friends.
While England was beaten by us
long ago at open warfare, she seeks
now by diplomacy and secret un-
derstandings with our Tory-Fcd-
eral lmperialists, to wrest from the
United States portion of the
coast of Alaska and privileges in
Nicaragua which will endanger our
peace and place the republics south
of us in great peril. So far as
treaties are concerned she has
never failed to trample them under
her feet whenever they stood in
the way of her foul designs. She
is now fortifying her possessions
in South America which guard the
very entrance to the Nicaragua
canal and undoubtedly laying her
plans for future aggressions in
South America. And the most
humiliating circumstance connect |
ed with these British d signs is
that our imperial state department,
under the Mckinley administra,
tion, winked at them and virtual
ly proposed to barter away the !
Monroe doctrine for mess of
pottage. As was the case with
Reed, our state depart.

HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid lncreas
OF Heart Troubles

SSiNO - CAS FtboiulnS Nnt NdplO increase
OF Heart Troubles.
Heart trouble at least among the Amer
leans. IS certainly increasing and while
this ma be largely due 10 the excitement
and worry of American business life, IL
Is more often the result OF weak stom-
nchs. of poor digestion.
Real organic disease IS incura BILE but
not one case In n hundred of heart trouble
is organic.
The close relation between heart trouble
and poor digestion is because both organs
are controlled by the same great nerves
the Sympathetic and the Pneumogastric.
In another way also the heart is affected
by the .orm of poor digestion. which
causes gas and fermentation from half
digested food. There Is n feeling Of op-
preston and heaViness I'm the chest caused
by pressure of the distended stomach on
the heart and lungs. interfering with their
action; hence arises palpitatiOn and short
breath.
Poor digestion also posons the blood.
making II thin and watery, which irritates
and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble is to improve the digestion and
to insure the prompt assimilation of food.
This can be done by the regular use after
meals OF some safe. pleasant and effective
digestive preparation, like Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets. which may be found nj
drug stores. and which contain valuable,
harmless digestive elements in pleasant,
convenient form.
II is safe to say that the regular, per-
sstent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
at meal time will cure any form of stom-
ach trouble except cancer of the stomach.
