as the civil war showed--but the
Union remains a practical success and
points the way for federal union for
Great Britain and her colonies.
incidentally Captain Mahan dis
cusses the relation OF Irish home rule
and the Boer war to the problem OF
British federation. Secession was an
idea which endangered the existence
of the United States, and the federal
government never became national
in anysreal sense till after that idea
as result OF the civil war-was defin-
itely discarded Secession was the
issue also, according to Captain Ma
han, when Mr. Gladstone presented his
Irish home rule bill to parliament 1t
was again the issue when the Trans
vaal refused to recognize the prepon-
derance of England In South Africa.

The defeat OF Mr. Gladstone. Captain

was to be preserved in the larger sense
was still an open question. The issue

imperial federation. There will be

But such dangers now envelop the
British world that, in Captain Mahans s

THE DELEGATE TO CONGRESS.

The announcement of Hon. Marcus
A. Smith that he was not candidate
for reelection to Congress has de-
volved on the Democrats of Arizona
the duty Of selecting his successor.
II is highly probable that If Mr. Smith
desired a reelection, his aspirations
would not have been seriously an
tagonized. as his public services have
been conspicuous. and the people OF
the Territory in general. and OF his
own party in particular, feel proud OF
his achievements and disposed to re-
ward his efforts.
1t is not improbable that Mr.. Smith
feels assured that the Statehood bill
will be passed by the Senate next win
ter. and that he could best serve the
people of Arizona during the forma-
tive period of the State by attending
the constitutional convention and lend
ing his ability and experience to the
equipment of the new commonwealth.
Mr. Smith is at the zenith of his power
and influence. He never stood higher
in the estimation of the people than
now. Arizonians of all parties desire
to honor him, and recognize that his
services entitle him to the right of Sc
lection of such duties as is most agree
able and convenient for him to perform
for his fellow citizens.
Hon. Charles NJ, Shannon. of Gra-
ham county has announced himself
candidate to succeed Mr.. Smith. Per-
haps there is no citizen of Arizona bet
ter known to the people than Mr.
Shannon. He has resided in the Terri
tory for nearly third OF a century.
He has been closely identified with the
industrial development and the gen.
eral progress OF Arizona in commerce,
education and civilization. He Is a
Democrat, sound to the core on every
principle of the party. He has ever
been a hard party worker, never
sulker. a skulker or dodger, and new
er indifferent to party success. He
was ever among the most loyal of Mark
Smiths friends. and always regarded
as one of his most faithful and eff
eient lieutenants
II selected by the Democratic con-
vention to carry the party banner dur
ing the coming campaign, Mr.. Shan
non could be relied upon to make a
thorough canvass. to poll the full
Democratic vote and successfully ap-
peal to men of independent instincts
His character is above reproach. His
loyalty to his friends has never been
questioned. His popularity with the
people would make his election a rea-
sonable certainty.
II chosen the Delegate of Arizona to
the Congress of the United States. Mr..
Shannon would carry to the discharge
OF his duty an untiring industry, cul-
tivated intelligence and high ideal of
his responsibility to the people No
man is better informed regarding the
needs and wants of Arizona, and no
man is better equipped by habits of
life and mental characteristics to win
the confidence and respect OF asso-
ciates and colleages and to utilize his
influence in the interest of his people.
not necessarily the man who Is en-
dowed with the arts OF the orator, but
the man who applies industry intelli-
gence and foresight to his work, and
keeps the interests of his constituents
ever in view. We have not doubt
that Mr.. Shannon has every qualifi-
cation to successfully serve Arizona at
Washington.

Death Of !Ars. T.J. Webb.

Death has been abroad in our midst
home of adev0ted wife and tender, ioV-
Ing mother: At Q O'Clock this morning
Mrs. Elizabeth Webb yielded to the
relentless enemy and quietly passed
into the world beyond. The tender
ties that bound her to loving hus-
bapd, four children and multitude of
devoted friends has been ruthlessly
snapped, out 1t Is the way of the world

The deceased was Miss Elizabeth
Williamson, daughter of Reuben Will
lIamson, and granddaughter of Capt.
Billie hewitt. She was native of An
dersOn County and graduate from the
old johnson Female University of this
city: In June of 1857 she was married
to Il. j. Webb, who for 80 many years
served this county as Auditor. Six
en- children were born to this happy cou
womb Hasseln, Mrs Mamie GeiRer. Rob

This noble woman suffered much
from i'll health for several years past.
About four years ago she found it ne
cessary to enter the Johns HoDkins
hospital in Baltimore. She returned
after brief stay feeling assured that
she was fully recovered, but last spring
her health failed again and in October
che made q second visit to Baltimore.
This time, she was told nothing could
be done that would be of permanent
benefit, and she returned home to pa-
tiently wait the will of the Master.
With meekness, patience and perfect
trust she bore her sufferings, and when
death came it was like the Pickering of

peaceful smile, while the marble fea-
lures retain much of that remark., hle
beauty that characterized her in the
youthful years OF life.
The funeral services have not been
fully decided upon by the family, but
they will most likely be held Friday,
notice of which will be given.

HOW THE WOODCHUCK SAVED THE DAY
By GEORGE E. WALSH.

There seems to be natural antipathy
between q dog and a woodchuck. but
there are times when circumstances
overcome this and for short period
they forget all else in a common cause.
When very young q woodchuck was
captured few years ago and carried
away triumphantly by a boy to be
reared in captivity as pet. The crea-
ture was so young that it did not know
enough to resent the hands which held
it, and as 1t grew up with all kindness
shown to it the wild ferocity of its an
cestors never fully developed. 1t be-
came so attached to the boy that it was
always ready to welcome his appear
ance.
But there was another member of the
farmyard to which the woodchuck never
took kindly. The little fox terrier de-
lighted in teasing the pet woodchuck.
and it never lost an opportunity to
frighten it. 1t would creep upon the
