Democratic paE Eers are fighting
Shannon's candidacy under cover,
One Of these papers makes the state.
ment that the democrats cannot
afford to antagonize the miners
vote and another one states that
Shannon voted against the eight
hour law in the last legislature. A
oombining of the two items would
give the status of the case: that
Shannon has antagonized the min
ers by his action in the last legis-
lature and that in consequence he
would not he an available candi-
date. Shannon is a bright man
and would be a credit to the terri
tory in the halls of congress, just

Senator Vest sa, s that the dem
ocrats will drop the Kansas City
platform in the fall campaign and
that this will be the end of the
campaign for silver. That this is
so the action of every state conven-
ton of the democratic party SO far
held confirms. For several years
democrats and half breeds of this
county have been pointing to the
democratic party as the savior of
the silver cause. Now what will
these fellows have for a campaign
issue when the silver cause has
been repudiated by the party and
the tariff and other issues that af-
fects us in no particular is taken
up as the dominent issues of the
campaign? The fellows who passed
successfully from republican to
populist, then to democrat will have
to hunt up new party with which
to align himself. Scanlon, John
son ST. Charles and the others who
worked in the ranks of the repub-
lican party for the past forty years
and when an office was in sight
found that they had been mislead
all these years and precipitately
Topped over into the populist and
then fioundered into the dem ,cratic
wigwam, will have to hand in
some new reason for getting into
some other party of promise The
democrats are sure to repudiate
them this year with as great agility
as the party has repudiated the
cause of silver.

The Arizona edition of the Pa
cifc Coast Miner has been received
at this office. While the paper is
neat publication its references to
the mines of the territory are Of an
ancient order. In giving forth an
edition of this nature California
newspapers have taken matter from
the governors reports Of years gone
by, which matter is la no wise APP
plicable to present conditions, or
they have sent out man who
would not know a mine if he met it
in the road, to write up the mines
These fellows have been stuffed
full of nonsense, which makes their
efforts appear ridiculous to those
who are aware of the prevailing
conditions. But, just the same,
the edition is a very neat one and
reflects credit on the home office.

A new process for the extraction
of the precious metals from base
ores is said to have been discovered
by a Denver man. The method
if report is to be believed, will be a
hard blow to the smelling trust,
but this is too good to be true and
if true will be but another trust
that the poor producer will find
himself up against. The only real
way for a producer to get away
from the trusts is to get a good lit
tie g Id mine, and if he is unable
to p t in a mill he can work it by
the arastra process With a gold
mine that will pay a man is the
most independ mt creature on God s
green tootstool, and Mohave county
has m any such within her confines.

The assessment of the United
Verde copper company has been
raised nearly six hundred thousand
dollars by the lavapai board of
equalization Instead of this ar
bitrary raising of mine assessment
a bullion tax would catch these
fellows and produce a greater rev.
enue to the counties. Why should
an unproductive mine have to paw
big assessment because it is said
to be a valuable property and an.
other mine that is producing divi-
dends be assessed lower rate?
This is the case in Mohave county.
Mines that never produced a dollar
are asses ed higher than those pro-
ducing a nice monthly revenue.

The strike of the freight handler.

The strike of the freight handlers
at Chicago is causing loss Of
millions of dollars daily TO the
business of that city. One-half
cent an hour in wages is the cause
of the strike and the companies are
spending millions to keep the men
from getting it. 1t is the old story
of the dog in the manger, but in
this case the people who have little
or no interest in the fight are get
ting the big end of it. When a
railroad company is having trouble
with its employees the government
ought to look into the matter and
adjust the difficulty. If the men
are earning more money than their
salaries indicate they should be
paid the excess.

A geological survey of the terri
tory is necessity that the gov
ernment will be asked to overcome
at the short session of congress.
The old surveys were made under
difficulties and the deductions of
the geolo lists and mineralogists of
the expeditions were very inaccurate
Mohave county needs a geological
survey that will portray its mineral
wealth and geological standing as
it is, not as it was fifty or sixty
years ago

The Socialists of Gila county
have placed in the field a full
county ticket This is in accord
ance with the programme mapped
out at the recent labor conference
in Denver. Since the formation of
parties everv plan for the consoli
dation Of the labor vote has been
tried and failure has marked its
course. A party that is the out
growth of secret organization can
not live in the free land of Ameri-
ca. 1t runs counter to the prin-
ciples enunciated in the declara-
tion of independence and binds
men down to support a body OF
men that are notoriously unfit for
public office. The first success of
such a movement is the sure sig
nal for the downfall of the organ
ization. 1t is said that an attempt
will be made to place such ticket
in the field in this county, but the
outside interests Of many of the
mine workers will undoubtedly
cause a reaction against such a
move.

Our cotemporary is very anxious
for the adopt on of the Crawford
primary law by the democratic
committee of this county. The
fear that the editor will be openly
repudiated in convention is at the
bottom of his desire, but neverthe-
less the plan is the only honest
method Of placing candidates be
fore the people, and it should be
adopted by every party. The pur-
chase and sale of venal delegates
has been the means of thwaiting
the will of the people of this county
for many years and while the pri-
mary system may not entirely pre-.
vent fraud it will make it much
harder for the politician to entirely
control all the nominations to Of
fca. As far as the adoption of the
method by the democrats is con
cerned we have no voice nor inter
est in the matter.

Down in Parral, Chihauhua,
Mexico, romantic story has its
origin. A Mexican prospector found
two mining claims and after work
ing them some time became Won
derfully wealthy. He had friend
who was poor and thinking to do
him a good turn leased one of the
claims to him, but a clause in the
lease stated that transfer would
operate as a forfeiture. The MeXi-
can lessee saw a way to make mill
ions out of the property and inter
ested an American with him and
the two began Systematically to
gut the mine. The owner protested
and then began an action to recov.
er the property and this action is
now being hotly contested, the
American declaring that he will
carry the matter to Washington
before he will give up. The story
of the finding of the mine and the
early struggles Of the prospector is
quite romantic.

The republicans II Mohave county
have been given the short end Of it in
the matter Of establishing papers. A
mum Der of years ago they conceived
the plan of establishing a paper and
raised several hundred dollars With
which handful of long primer type
and an old broken down hand press
was purchased and Kean St. Charles,
Lew Blakely and J. A. Whitemore
placed in editorial charge. Each one
OF the faithful subscribed for from one
to five copies of the sheet and the
work went on. The booze joint proved
too attractive to some of the sports in
charge of the paper and it failed to
blossom out to the satisfaction of some
of its supporters. Whitemore fed
from the scene and st. Charles and
Blskely flip. Topped the sheet over to
the populists, in the belief that they
would dominate the county. Blakely
and St. Charles could not agree on the
management of such a huge affair and
st. Charles with the aid of populistic
candidate became the sole owner. Then
the paper was sum mersaulted over to
democracy, or what the editor thought
to be the democracy, and the republi-
cans we're left to mourn the sad part
ing with their dough A short year or
so ago they made another trial of the
news paper business and the Arrow was
placed on the journalistic sea. 1t was
never the enthusiastic advocate of re-
publicanism that the founders wished
for, but the cam mpaign was long way
off and it had plenty of time to stiffen
up weak vertebrae But last week
the hopes of its supporters was dashed
to earth by the announcement in that
paper that no support of party would
be made by it; that the dough was the
objective and that the one who placed
the dough in the right place--and the
right place was the editors pocket
would receive its undivided and en-
thusiastic support. That little seance
in Cuzinno's restaurant on the glor-
ious Fourth is bringing forth results.

Tn the center of the building will be the main reception hall connecting the corridors. which extend the full length of the building This reeep- ton hail will be in the form of a Latin cross. On the first floor. group ed on each side of corridors. is the gen eral managers office and office of board or commissioners. governor, the lady manager and the ladies reception room, which will be on a suite with the ladies toilet and cloak room. the day nursery and ladies waiting room. which will be furnished and appor- toned for all ladies from the state. On the opposite side of the corridors are the gentlemen's reception rooms and suite with wash room. toilet and check room. One entire corner of the building will be devoted to Hot Springs and Eureka Springs exhibits, which will be admirable and calcu- lated to arouse considerable interest. space is also provided for any and all counties and cities which may ap- ply for 1t. The second story is devoted to educational exhibits unclassified. and the historical society and a thor oughly accoutred auditorium. While the building will cost $100,00e. in it's actual value, piece for piece. it is pro. posed to have the state expend only between $20,000 and s25 5,000-the bal ance being contributed; for instance. one man gives so much of this kind of lumber, another of that. and so on. until the remainder is actually fur nished by congregation of people The building will be built enti1ely of wood and stone

ONLY MEANT FOR A HOAX.
Hut Its Publication Is Claimed to Have Injured the University
 of the South.

Nashville, Tenn, Feb. 16.-A story recently sent over the country to the effect that Chancellor Wiggins and some members of the faculty of the University of the South had left Sewanee because of anonymous notes from supposed mountaineers warn ing them to leave on pain of death, has drawn from the university au- thorities statement in which they say the publication has done much injustice to the university and given an unfair and erroneous estimate of the character of the people surround ing IL. The statement continues:
 The native population of the Cum berland plateau and in the valleys and coyes near the university are on terms of good feeling with the uni versity, and the country people are it's friends. The single anonymous letter picked up on the street alarmed no one.
 "lhe newspaper in which the sen sational article first appeared has, in response to request of the uni versity, given the source of It's in formation, and it appears that it came from persons who do not live in Sewanee and who were simply per petrating a hoax or joke, not ex- pecting any publication to result"
