As,zonA,s OPPORTUNITY.

At the St. Louis Worlds Fair next year the citizens of Arizona will have the opportunity to make an exhibit of the industries of this territory which will be in striking contrast to the de scdption of our conditions given in the report of the senatorial committee who visited the territory last fall to investigate our fitness for statehood. That report did Arizona a great in justice and no doubt has left an un- favorable impression on the minds of many who have never given any inves- tgation of the social and industrial Conditions in our favored land of d. most continued sunshine.
 The exhibit from this territory. if made what it ought to be. and what it c-.- .z, will leave no do.t. ia ss-~ minds of those who see ;t and learn the facts concerning the territory which supplies it, as to the fitness of Arizona for statehood and the justice of the request of the people for the right of self-government-
 A mere exhibit of mineral, agricult rral and fruit products will not sui flee if we are to attract general at tention at the fair. There must be prepared comprehensive descriptive matter concerning the industries and enterprises in the several counties and localities to distribute to those

bor ,o win or else 1t is not sincere in conviction.
 Democrats the length and breadth of the country are answering these prop ,ositions in a way which can not be mistaken. Splits "squabbles, disputes" threats" accusations --and such ideas are mainly spread and fostered by a republican press which seeks by this active propagand- ism to conceal the frailty of the repub. lican rganization-these ideas are seen to be childishly weak and small beside considerations of winning 8 democratic victory upon democratic principles.

OUR NEW CHURCH.

The dedication of the new -Presoy' terian church in Bisoee on Sunday next will be another big credit mark for this city and will consecrate for religious use the handsonest churh ed flee in the territory of Arizona The building was completed several weeks ago and has been used for services since. Too much credit can not be given to the Copper Queen Mining company for the appearance here of this handsome and costly church edi- flee: all the expense of it's construc- tion and furnishing was borne by this company and some of its individual di- rectors. It emphasizes the policy of the Copper Queen people in placing within reach of their employees every opportunity for acquiring 8 higher plane of life. In Bisbee the employees of the Copper Queen may enjoy every means of recreation and improvement that may be had by lacorers and me chanics in any city. The public read ing room on Main street supplies all the latest newspapers from every sec ing of the country, magazines, trade journals and scientific publications; at the gymnasium may be found bowl ing eGeys, billiard rooms, card rooms and every modern device for physical culture: both library and gymnasium were provided free. Not only has this company supplied Bisbee with the new Presbyterian church but it has aided all the church organizations in this city with liberal donations. All the credit for the new Presterian church and Its handsome finish aud furnishings however must not go to the Copper Queen; Rev. Harvey NJ. Shields, the pastor, is entitled to much praise for his individual efforts in as sisting in the creation of the beaufi- fui temple of God. The energy of this man is almost unbounded and so en- thusiastic did he become as the new church neared completion that 5e was present to see the carrying out Of al most every detail, causing remark by one of his co-wo-kers to the effect that Shields is not devoting much time to studying his sermons, since the finishing workmen began on the new churct.
 The Review is proud of Bishee's new church and is equally proud of its pastor, who during his residence ir this city has proven his unseldsh devotion to the work of building up christianity. not only by the precepts given from the pulpit. but by the ex ample of his daily life. Hundreds and hundreds Of people have received the benefits of his untiring energy in searching out the sick and destitute and seeing that proper care and at tention was provided. Such worl will surely have its reward. Rev Shields has done a noble work in this city which has won for him the grati tude of all classes-saints and sinners alike.

UNITED PRESS AND SOLID PARTY.

Since publicity k the life of the great game of politics the press nat. urally constitutes an important and. in these times, an indispensable factor, being the most useful medium for the exchange and development of political ideas, a means of communication be. tween the politicians and the people and affording the public an open view of the game.
 But it can not be said that the aver. age newspaper wholly reveals the DO liucal situation; rather, it presents 8 single aspect To gain a comprehen. sive view and perceive the full mean. ing of conditions the individual would ind it necessary to consult the repre-. sentative journals of all parts Of the country.
 In the tone of the press at present says the Republic. the one thing mos. forcibly evident is the fairly unani. nous cooperation of democratic jour. nals to promote solidarity and single purpose in the rank and Ale. One spirit characterizes the policy of prac. tically all. It pleads for liberaIity propitiation and concession. It la bors with the democratic party to fig. nore the mere politician. the factional leader and the sophist to weed ou, Of the party the selfish men occupied with 10 intent but to read each oth CT out; to stand firmly together upon bedrock principies-and the enthusi asm of this iaboring spirit is inspired by the assurance of victory.
 In this broad effort of the press there is potent significance, for it in terprets the desire of a majority O. democrats. It breafhes of the old time democracy that yet holds fast or
 men; 1t rings consonant with the deep CT motives that have animated ana sustained men since Jefferson ana Jackson A solid press, refecting the peoples desire. means a solid party.
 Perhaps the most direct and yis:b:s effectiveness of the press lies in ths fact that r. acts as a check upon ths leaders. The people. the voters, wh, constitute political power, who mak. and unmake politicians, and bend par lties to their will, communicate thei, directions through tue newspaper. Ul timately the leaders must obey-they are mere agents: when they excee. authority they lose power strengti depends upon ready compliance witi popular demands.
 Il Nothing can obscure the people, wishes Their expression grows fl ,ys-e- s-- ty -e.. -.s..ssa .aaIfe re bels at the prospect of another de feat. Democrats decline to be led u, to the polls only to be humiliated be cause of factional differences. Tha
 which they now desire is to win.
 Human nature is poor loser a best To lose or ones merits is ba, enough. To lose because of pig headedness or short sight or any o the things which make for disorgani . ration is intoierable.

A Days Outing.

Last Friday marked the close of
a successful term of Gross Roads
public school and Prof. Roberts gave
his pupils, patrons and fIiends a
delightful outing.
a large crowd gathered al the ap
pointed hour and enjoyed a strong
address by County Superintendent
r. ID. CTiddle. Prof. CFiddle com.
mended the people for the interest
taken in their school. He made a
strong appeal for the continued
growth and strength of the rural
schools. He showed from different
standpoints why II vas better to
educate, and urged upon the young
people their duty of developing and
improving the talents given them.
After the close Ot the address a
very interesting feature Of the dav
followed, Wis, an elegant dinner Of
choice yiauds, eXceiiently served by
the good women present. There
was most everything 10 be- desired
from the vegetable 30 animal king
dom, and all seemed 10 feel IL was
good TO be- there. After an hours
recreation the people were again
called together and Mr.. Eskridge,
lately from Fulton, Kentucky, was
introduced 10 the people and spoke
quite humOrously 81 hi- first im-
preston of Texas. He paid a high

words of farewell 10 his pupils and

entious work done by pupils and the
loyal support Of patrons.
