rlckinley's Popularity Unsubstantial

One other thing this convention at Philadelphia has made clear, the un- substantial quality of the alleged pot- uarity of William Mckinley. All the fulsome eulogies of his wise, intelli- gent, high-principled and masterly statesmanship did not avail to cover aud conceal its real intirmity, insin
 cerity and dependence on abler minds and stouter wills than his own. The extent of dissatisfaction and dsre- spect prevailing among republican politicians, and freely expressed when they were not talking for publication or record, was surprise to the unin- formed. This feeling was the secret of the willingness of many state dele gations to serve the ends of Platt and Quay rather than those of Hanna in respect to the vice presidency and in other matters. Newspaper cores pondents have noted the not uncom- mon remark of deleg ates that if Roose- SCio huu oOAuC tiiHC dSO dHIOuuCtu himself candidate for president he could have had their vote. This was not because they loved Roosevelt more, but Mckinley less. Persons who have lately travelled extensively through the west bring back surpris- ing reports of the indifference to Me- Kinley prevalent among Republicans.
 Whether association with Roosevelt will make the Mckinley ticket really stronger is a matter of grave doubt. It will please the hurrah element of the party, but that element does not count for so much since Blaine's can didacy as it did before. The people who consider are preponderating element, and Gov. Roosevelt is not es- pecially strong with these. It is sig nificant that almost the first remark heard is: We'll, pity Mckinley if the ticket is successful. It is remem- bered that Roosevelt is the most

While the presi. dent and Secretary Long were labor Ing to preserve peace and settle the ouoan question by diplomacy, the voice of the assistant secretary of the navy was for war. Rooseyelt's career as governor has been in great degree disappointing. He has been so much Tn the power of Platt and served him so noticeably that he has lost the con- hdence of the reform contingent. mere are few thoughtful persons who can contemplate with satisfaction the possibility of having Roosevelt for president in any contingency -Bos- ton Herald.

1ohave County for Wilson.

Mohave county voters are for Will. son for the reason that he is the only
 man that has ever gone to congress from Arizona that has ever remem- bered that there was such county as
 Mohaye after he got what he wanted; they are for him because there is a railroad that traverses this county for over 100 miles that is exempt from taxation under existing laws and he is the first delegate to introduce bill in congress whereby the railroad will be amenable to taxation. This bill is being favorably considered and the result will be about Sl9,00O per year for Mohave county and large amounts for the counties of CocOnino, Navajo and Apache. All parties should be for Wilson in the northern tier of cour- ties and democracy should renominate him by acclam ition as he stands squarely on the Bryan platform. The people of Arizona want man in con- gress that works and has something to show for it-Our Mineral Wealth.

One of the big electrical transmis. sion schemes of the twentieth century in the domain of mining will be, prob. ably, the development of the Rhodesia, South Africa, gold mines by power generated at Victoria Falls, in the Zambesi river, and brought from 35C to 300 miles, says The Mining & Scien- tific Press. Ten years ago such a statement would have seemed absurd, but California has shown what can be done in the transmission of high volt age long distances, and of all busi- nesses that of the gold miner can best afford to pay a high price for steady, reliable power, and if the gold be in Rhodesia the rest will work out as in- dicated.

A GR0UNDLEss RUMOR
In Which Certain Business Men Were
 Misrepresented.

An utterly unwarranted and ground less rumor was circulated in Prescott last week to the effect that Contractor Van A1styne, who is constructing the new Bank of Arizona building in that city, had failed to meet the time re- quirementS of his contract and had left the country between fsv'o days. So gen. eral was the statement that in q recent issue The Republicans Prescott cor respondent made reference to the nasty departure of Mir. Van Alstyne.
 The matter was investigated yester- day by a Republican repoIiter and it was learned that there was positively no foundation for the story and it must have been started by some malicious individual. MT. T. w. Chamberlain is associated with the firm in that he is furnishing the material for the builG- ing. He says that whoever started the story knows but little regarding the facts in the case. In the first place the contract for the bank building was les last June. to be completed on Noven- Der 15, a month later than reported. Then came the Prescott fire in July, causing the banking company to change its plans entirely, enlarginS the size of the proposed building and neces- sitating the reletting of all sub-con tracts. This was accomplished to the satisfaction Of all concerned ard since then work has been pushed as rapidly as possible.
 The insid2 furnishings of the build ing were made in Chicago and arc by this time on uhe way to Prescott. Inc plans have been changed so frequently that some fears were entertaincd by the contractors that there might be misconstruction of the furnishings Q" that oversights might occur that would delay matters and it was simply to check out this material that MT. Van Alstyne went Ito Chicago, the trip being taken with the full knowledge ana consent of those interested with him. The building will be finished just as soon as possible and probably before February 1. At any rate MT. Van All styne's visit to Chicago was for the purpose of avoiding instead of causing delay.
 As for the story that the contractors would lose s1O,OOO, MT. Chamberlain said that was the most ridiculous part of it. On the contrary they are en- tirely satisfied and will make q good profit and the bank people are satis- fled. He is riding on the prosperity wagon and is only sorry that he hasn't more of the same kind of business.

YUMA COUNTY MINES.

Sheriff Speese has returned frcGn the King of Arizona, where he is develop ing some lead claims. He is pleased with the developments alr ady made and thinks he will eventually have . property that will rival the Castl, Dome mines.
 : County Recorder Marvin has re- csived a letter from L. F. Bradshaw Chicago. stating that he had made a sale of some valuable gold property at TysQn's Wells, this county, in which he is Interested, and that the purchas- CTS will be here about the first of the year and at once begin development work on their property.
 There is considerable excitement in Yuma over a reported rich and new gold discovery in the King of Ariz0na mining district. We learn that the claim has been bonded to Ira P. Smith assistant superintendent of the pris- on, in the sum of $5O,OOO, for California capitalists. It is understood that MT Frank M. Murphy Is also in the deal

HORSE DIES OF FRIGHT.
Was Green, and Succumbed to the
 Noise of Trolley Cars.

Four western horses were being led up Broad street, Newark, yesterday morning, when one of them dropped dead from fright as the negro in charge of them tried to take them across mar ket street among the dozens of trolley cars. The changing of gongs made the green horses extremely nervous and. one of them sank ito the pavement and rolled over dead. Two veterinary sur geons looked the horse over and came to the conclusion that he had died from a paralytic stroke. The negro refused to give his name or that of his employ Cr.--ilGX.

The twenty third annual fair of the
Eastern Shore Agricultural Associa,
tion closed yesterday. The attend
ance was not as large as in other
years and financially, therefore, not the
success that it has been heretofore.
The reasons for the falling off in
numbers present can be accounted
Tor though in way to cause no dis
enlargement to the authorities as to
what its future will be. They will
guard against the mistake of OPEN
ing it so early another year and look
better after the amusements. which
the people or at least the children
seem to require on such occasions.
The fairs so far as exhibits go to make
it success, did not fall behind that
of other years except in agricul-
tural products. The exhibits in the
ladies' department was especially fine
and the poultry and stock were of
excellent quality and there was an
abundance of it, The entries in the
horse department were ali that were
expected and the speed trials seemed
to be satisfactory TO those in attend
ance. The premiums awarded will
appear in later issues of this paper.

In sad remembrance of our deal
son, Upshur II. Justis, who died
August 9Th, 1898. Loved in life In
death remembered.
The wheel of time has brought again
The day that filed our hearts with
pain,
Two years ago twas then our love,
Was taken to his home above.
The home where changes nor decay,
Can never blight his rest,
He died two years ago today,
Two years with the the Savior
blest.
Sleep on, dear Upshur, take your
rest,
God called you, He thought it best.
Twas hard indeed to part with you,
Still we say, They will be done.
Could you but speak to us,
And could you live again,
Our loving hearts would then be
healed,
But this we wish in vain.
Death has robbed us of our Upshur,
OF the one we love so well,
Take me from this world of sorrow,
Safely home with him to dwell.
Dearest Upshur, we have laid thee,
In the peaceful graves embrace,
But thy memory will be cherished,
Till we see thy heavenly face.
Sleep on, dear Upshur, sleep and
take thy rest
Lay down thy head upon his
breast,
We love thee but Jesus loves thee best
Sleep Oh, sleep on.
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved Is still,
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.
Good bye, dear Upshur, we miss you,
In our quiet little home,
But in heaven we hope to meet you
When our work on earth is done.
Farewell, dear Upshur, but not for
ever,
There will be a glorious dawn,
We shall meet to part, no never,
On the resurrection morn.
Oft we wander to the graveyard,
Flowers to strew with tender care,
On the grave of our dear Upshur,
Darkness finds him resting there,
But his voice seems sweetly saying
Courage friends, we'll meet some
day.
Father and Mother.
