MIR. Thos. Bayze is prominently mentioned as the republican candi- date for sheriff of Santa Cruz county, and it is generally conceded that should he express a willing ness to accept the nomination, 1t would be given unanimously by the convention. As a candidate, the gentleman would prove most formidable, and his election would be beyond peradventure. And he would make one of the most cap able and efficient sheriffs ever known in Arizona.

WHERE'S HE LooKlNe7

The following political and liter ary gem is from the Mohave Miner:
 Every measure having for it's ob- iect the amelioration of the condi- tion of the working class, was turned down by the last democratic legis- lature. Now democratic papers are using the same old 'lasses to catch the flies. They say the republicans would have done the same thing, were they in position to control ter ritorial legislation, and also set up that heretofore the democrats have always favored the workingman. While this statement may be true, the fact remains that the class of men the democrats have been elect ing to office of late years in Ari- zona would never pass muster in any other country of earth. For the greater part they have been the riff-raff and off-scourings of every political party of the country. The parties with which they formerly affiliated refused them recognition and they knocked at the doors of the other organizations one by one, until at last they reached the last house in the row, where they were received with out-stretched arms. The democracy of the past few years was willing to take in any old poli- tical renegade who applied for ad- mission, and in the hurry and bus.le of admitting and enrolling the new converts, the leadership of the organization was not placed under lock and key, and the rene gade addition to the party deliber- ately stole it. The acquisition of a party leadership was something so new and novel to these fellows that they are at a loss to know what to do with it and at the same time keep the other fellow from getting away with it. The quarrel arose and the fight is on. The old line party man is arrayed against renegade and the renegade against renegade for party supremacy. It matters little who succeeds, because the people are coming to their senses and will elect to office only men who are q ualifed to fill them,
 Has the Miner man Santa Cruz county in his minds eye?

cratic candidate for governor,
the press of the same section had
received, during the last year,
less than s per cent of the state
printing.
The members of the associa-
ton do not intend to make un-
reasonable demands, but they
find that the total of their sup
port from the party has been less
than the time and money they
have spent in winning its victor
ies-in other words they have
spent more than they have re-
ceived.
They are willing to share the
expense of defeat, but they do
not believe that victory should
cost them so much.
The meeting of "the boys" has
served to establish a fellowship
between them that will never be
forgotten, and will inevitably re.
dound to their good.
The matters that appear OF
record, i'll themselves, will prove
of Importance to the entire press,
while the matters informally dis
cussed and conclusions reached,
which are not of record, will be
of no less Importance.
The Southeastern Idaho AS
sociation hopes to receive the
support and encouragement Of
the entire press of the State, fol
it's efforts will be exerted tC
benefit all alike. The associa
ton is local solely on account Of
geographical conditions making
it so convenient. Whenever {

ent and effective, the South

DEMOCRATIC EDITORS MEET.

The Pocatello Advance says
relative to the meeting of the
Southeastern Idaho Democratic
Editorial Association held last
Saturday at Pocatello:
A majority of the editors of
Southeastern Idaho held a most
harmonious meeting here last
Saturday. From most of the
others, letters of sympathy and
of promise of cooperation were
received. 1t was the unanimous
opinion that the democratic press
of the State had not received at
the hands of the managers of the
party such treatment as would
give it the proper dignity and
influence in the party and before
the people. AS matter both of
pride and self protection, it was
resolved to take steps to bring
about some changes in the condi-
tons. 1t must not be suspected
for a moment that the loyalty of
any member of the association to
the party and its principles has
in the least iota lessened. On
the contrary, it is the for the
future welfare of the party that
has caused them to make con-
certed effort to better their con
dition. They have seen the
party in control in the State, and
most of the counties, for six
years, yet the party papers are
going out of existence. The re-
publican press of the State, on
the contrary, has fourished and
increased in numbers and infu-
ence. 1t was felt that there was
some cause for this condition
and it was for the purpose OF
discussing these causes and
their remedy that the meeting
was held.
In comparing notes, the memb,
ers we're astounded to learn of
the meagre support the press Of
this section was receiving at the
hands of the party, and they
unanimously resolved to take
steps to produce changed condi
tions.
It was found that while the
counties represented by the
association cast 40 per cent o.
the votes received by the demo
