MOREY PLEADS GUILTY.

w. P. Mercy admits that he was among the bolters who knifed the dem- cratic ticket two years ago, and at- tompts to justify his disloyalty on the ground that there were many demo- crats who scratched their tickets. It is no excuse that others are alike guilty. Some of the "best democrats" may have scratched their ticket two years ago from praiseworthy motives, but NIT. Mercy can not be chased with the "best, or even good democrats, for it is well known that his open opposition was prompted by personal pique and disappointment at his failure to secure a nomination.
 The voters have right to demand statement from Mir. Mercy Gas well as from every other declared aspirant for oifice) what he intends doing in this campaign should he be defeated for

There are several reasons for the be- lief that the boycott declared by Tue. son Typographical union against the Star is being exploited in tue interest of Charlie Shsnnon's candidacy for del. egate to congress-. The Tucson Citi- zen and Phoenix Enterprise, both con trolled by Shannon, have displayed re. markable Zeal in taking up the fight of the union, and excoriating l.. c. Hughes, proprietor of the Star. Otto Miller, president of Tucson Typo graphical union, appears, to have been given carte blanc in the use of the Cit izen's columns to berate "Ihe Star and it's Rats. ." One of Miller's communi. cations concludes with the significant paragraph "And by the way, the Stars advocacy of the claims of any candidate will not help that candidate amo g the organized labor voters of every city, town and mining camp in the territory" It is we'll known that the Star advocates the nomination and election of Col. J, F, Wilson, who stands well with organized labor, while Shannon has been turned down by the miners unions of Arizona because he  opposed the eight-hour bill in the last legislature. Miller's work is very coarse. This same Otto Miller is one of the most disreputable printers in Arizona, who should not be recognized in any respectable organization.

nomination. Will he get out and work for the success of the democratic tick ct, or will he make another roar and repeat his performance of two years ago ?
 In our opinion voter may scratch his ticket and still be good party man. No party has a monopoly of honesty and capacity for holding office, and the discriminating voter Is better citizen than the blind partizan who per sists in "voting 'er straight, regardless of the character and capability of the candidate. It Is more important that the affairs of the county be honestly and intelligently administered than that the offices be filled by democrats or republicans. The independent vote acts as brake on the party machine, to prevent it running away and smash ing the party.
 The editor of the SILVER BELT was not aware that his politics is to be an issue in the campaign, as might be in ferred by MT. Morey's fling in the last sue of the Times. Although dem- ocrat since 1896, we have not attempted to obtrude ourself as party dictator. We are not democrat for office or for revenue, but because we believe in the principles of the national democratic party. We are democrat by educa- tion and conviction, and for that req son, we assert, better democrat than the fellow who, when the election draws near and he scents office, boasts of being "a lifelong democrat.

ADAMSON PLAYS HORSE.

The Hotel Varnum, near the
Capitol, is the home of number
of congressman, and still greater
number of children. Sometime
ago both Congressman Lloyd, of
Missouri, and Adamson, of Geor-
gia, were stopping there, and the
Missourian tells this one on the
Gentleman from the Cracker
State:
eff there's man in congress
who loves children it is Adamson,
and while at Varnum he spends
a large portion of his evenings
romping with the Juveniles. He
was favorite with all the young
sters. One morning just as Mr..
Adamson was ready to come to
the Capitol, o five-year-old girl
walked up to him and ask that he
play horse with her-let her ride
on his back. The mother was
present, and said to the child !:
Why, Mable, you should not
make horse of the gentleman. ,
oh, mamma replied the child, he
isn't a gentleman he's congress
man" Mr.. Adamson appreciated
the Joke and the girl got the
ride. "

HOPE OF THE SOUTH.

1t is no use to hide the fact that
the hope of the South lies IN the
white boy who is determined to be
useful and willing to work hard
that he may be, says the Tenne-
see Mountain Herald.
There are many who are study
ing Latin and Greek and fitting to
be lawyers, doctors and ministers.
but there is no great demand for
them. There is never ending de-
mand for young men who can do
something and superintend COM
mon labor, while this labor does
what clear brains plan and over
see.
The day has passed when a man
with diploma from some small
college can win his way carte
blanche. 1t has been found that
there is culture in gardening as
well as III Greek, in a lathe as
well as in literature, in handling
of pillow as we'll as in the hand
ling of pen.
