THE REPUBLICAN, CANDIDATE
Phoenix Republican.)

VI ""VhsA nspuUueuu.'
 William Fenimorc Cooper, Rcpubli. can candidate for delegate to congress, is one of the best known and most highly respected citizens of Arizona. A resident of the territory since 1891, having lived in i've of the thirteen counties. and having always taken an active interest in both local and terri. torial affairs wherever he has lived, no man can lay claim to better knowl. edge of prevailing conditions. No one who knows him can question his integ. rity. his industry. his pcrspicacity. his alertn ness. his congenial personality, or any of those necessary attributes which comprise ones fitness as a cnm. paigncr or his ability to discharge the duties of the high office to which h. as. pires.
 In respect of that question which is of vital interest to Arizona, the nefari. ous project of jointnre with New Mex leo. Mir. Cooper's opposition has been both determined and consistent. He is with his party and with the great ma iori'y of the people on that issue. As the defender of Arizona 's rights and the champion of her interests hc win not be found wanting, either in the home council or in the national forum.
 During the campaign that is to fol. low, much will he heard of "Bill" Cooper. but opposition to him will of necessity be confined to q discussion of issues. for he stands on clean record. Much is already known of Mir. Cooper. in general way. hut in the light of events that will make him prominent from this tiiue forward, n sketch of his career. somewhat biographical. will be both timely and interesting.
 Mir. Cooper was born in Dublin. Wayne county. Indiana. August q, 1858. living ip ina, vicinity until hc was if, teen years old. He graduated from the high school tn Richmond m 1873. at. tended Otterbein university for year, then entered the military academy at Peekskill. N. l., from which he gradu- ated in 1877 at the head of his class For year thereafter he studied law in Richmond, Indiana, with William A..

He spent year or so in Colorado. returned to his home in Indiana. and in 1880. still being in poor health, he went to Californe. Here. with plenty of outdoor life on the range and brief residences in va. rious coast cities, his health was fully restored. After another visit to the old home he returned to California and engaged in newspaper work until 1891, when he came to Arizona.
 His Arizona record began in Mohave county, where he was engaged for n time in newspaper work, then in Phoe nix, where he was similarly occupied for short time, going from Phoenix 10 Florence. Pinal county. where he

Editorial Comment
HAS MR. BRYAN
 SPLIT DEMoCRACY7

, Southern Democratic leaders are non. plused and some of the stampcded at the position taken by Mir. Bryan in his New York speech on government ownership Just what these Demo. erats are going to do is not certain, but it was broadly intimated that Sen. ator Bailey would mako public his views mex, week and that other south. ern Democrats would follow his lead.
 John sharp Williams. the minority leader in the house. is equally distress. cd. Williams has just returned from a six weeks tour of the continent. He arrived in America the day before Mr. Bryan. but did not attend the Bsyan reception. Representative Liv- isxstone. the Democratic leader in Georgia, said:
 "If were president when govern sacnt ownership took cffec, I would -ntseneh myself in power nud estab' l~h the Livingstone dynasty
 Bryan's speech has thoroughly upset the campaign efforts of the Demo. cratic congressional leaders. In All the important speeches made during the last session of congress on the rat. bill the Democrats were careful to point est that the rate regulation was peces. sary in order to prevent agitation for government ownership or it wond he . menace to tho country.
 Senator Bailey in several speeches .lsplorcd the tendency toword govern ment ownership. It is said that Sen ator Bailey labored for more than an hour with Bryan in an effort to induce him 10 avoid any expression on gov ernmen, ownership. Senator Bailey left for Lexington, Ky, hut would not authorize an expression of his views at this time. He will return to Wash. ington next week and probably will make a statcmcpt at that time.
 Mir. Williams, the minority leader in the house has bcen even more out spoken in discussing the perils of gov crnment ownership than Mir. Bailey. lt is regarded as certain that the south will be practically unit against in corpornting q declaration for govern. mcnt ownership in the Democratic plat. form. IT the issue K pushed i' will prccipitaie an even more bitter con trovorsy than the silver question.
 While Mir. Bryan made if clear that he was not speaking for the Demo. cratic party in his government owner. ship advocacy, it K this feature which has attracted such wide public atten. ton and tho one which the rcpubh- cans will press home. With inc cxccp. tion of Hearst. whose independence of parties is universally recognized. none of the men conspicuous in Democratic politics has publicly spoken for gov ernnent ownership while every cN. pression an the subject iu the sci ad dresses on the rate bill was against it.
 Mir. Bryan so worded his remarks on this subject that tho Democrats can ignore it if nothing further is said hy him. But it is regarded ns certain that he will elaborate his ideas at oncc m this subject in some other speech during the approaching campaign, Hi. New York speech was merely !, key. note declaration indicating his atti. tudc on many subjects. II is believed that at some time he will take up cach of the important subjects he mention. ed and elaborate thcm.--Ex

REPUBLICANS CHOOSE
 A STRONG CANDIDATE

. In the selection of William F. Cooper of Globe to become the standard. bear. CT of the party, the Republican conven- ton at Bisbec unquestionably made n wise and strong nomination. Mr. Cooper is known throughout the length and breadth of the territory as one of the most brilliant attorneys and eloquent speakers, and man who has the rare gift of making friends of all whom he meets. His strong and magnetic personality Is evidenced by the fact that he was the only Rcpubli. can elected in Gila county when he first ran there as district attorney.
 little thought of his being elected in such strong Democratic county, but his eloquent uttcranecs on the platform and his eompanionable nature when he mingled with his fellow citizens. won him votes from the opposite political faith wherever he went. and h- was elected by surprisingly large ma. [ jority. AS campaigner, it is said [ that he has Mark Smith beat at his 1 own game.
 1 MT. Cooper i- particularly strong man with the working classes, and it IS predicted that he will carry every
 large mining camp in the territory. ! The workingmen know from his past
 history that he is in sympathy with the
 aims and aspirations of labor. They | known that hc is man of works and
 not words: man of sincerity and ac. ton and not one of Pharaisaical pre-. tense or slo.hful sybaritism. He on. tered upon active life as a printer at the ease. then became a linotype opcr. ! ator. and eventually engaged in the profession of the law, in which his , genius, energy and integrity have won him foremost place.
 Springing from the ranks of labor and maintaining his warm friendship for those who toll. despite his own elevation into new sphere of human activity, it is only natural that the workers of tho territory shouldbc his siaunch allies in his political aspira- lions.
 William r. Cooper k the man who can and will prick tho bubble of Smith ism a, the coming election. His sue cess will mean that Arizona will have representative in congress who has | not only the ability to accomplish
 something for his constituents. hut, | what is more. will make the efror, to ] do so.

100000 ARRESTS '
 IN NEW YORK.
Police in Year Get One Person For Every Twenty in City--Metropolitao City of Tents--Mayor Dunne vs Mav- or Mcclellan.

Dut New hork, asidc from all poht cal considerations, has a really x,nr place in it's heart for Mir. Bryan s, sonally. Tho town ndmircs his han esty and pcrsisteney. And 1t IS yer, unusual for New York, with what h,. been called it's parochial snobbishns.. Co give any serious consideration to parsonage who halls from as far avn, from the Hudson ss the great Nebr,,. kan. In 1896 Father Knickcrboet., regarded Mir Bryan as political freak. but now he is much more "one of us" than Alton R. Parker ever VII, That worthy gentleman, by the way. who ran for president only two year. ago, has been effectually swallowed up in New York. There was no mention of him in all the speeches at the Bryan reception and hc was not present. though the leaders of Democracy from all over thc country were there. IL looks, indeed, as if the Sage of Esopu. had qualified for life membership is the Down and Out club.
 X New York man, William 4. wooa. bury. has at last found use for the mosquito, the bnne of all the suburbs of the metropolis, and he declares tha, the much.maligned insect should be cultivated instead of cradicated. ID. gentleman in question has sumner home on Long Island, where the little pests or blessings abound in great numbers. One night he set up net with large opening and a brilliant light at the end. In the morning th, net was full of mosquitoes and other insects. These he fed to the hes. and. according 10 vcrncious chronieler. the fowls throvc wonderfully on tt. food and proceeded to lay eggs at furious rate in order to show their appreciation. Mir. Woodbury sst mates that he has caught about a ton of mosquitoes for his hens and ducks since summer began. and he advises all farmers ,o go in for his cheap brand of hen food.
 On Manhattan Island. with its cou tiguous boroughs of the Bronx and Richmond, there were 7,75O fires last year which did total damage of e., 1895. Of the fires the causes Of 2,6sl were never ascertained, and these will forever remain mysteries of the city. Only twcnty.thrcc fires were attributed to inccndinrism. and but dozen persons were sentenced for arson. The causes for some of these hres in great city are instructive. The greatest cause was carelcssncss in the use of matches. to which 757 were attributable. Carelessness in the use Of cigars. cigarettes and pipes was responsible for aOt. Children playing with matches or fire started 2A. Only seventy'fvc fires were caused by de- fcctive insulation, in a city chiefly ch' wound in electric wiring. The much discussed use of kcreosene in lighting stoves resulted in the fire department being called on but four times. q rec ord indicating to what extent gas and electricity for cooking have replaced the old'time kitchen range.

 NEW YORK, Sept. According to current official report, nearly 2OO,' | GOO persons were taken into the cus' todv of the police m New York last year. or one arrest for about every ' twenty persons in the metropolis. This was a2.j00 more arrests than during the previous year. This big figure may mean that the metropolis is very wick cd or simply that Police Commissioner Bingham is holding down his job with both hands It cost the city nearly $l 100000 To maintain its police de. par'men, The number of males ar rested in proportion to females was about four to one. The percentage of ! 3.. Russians (including Jews) gave the police the most trouble and 2l, ,065 of them landed in quod The Irish were next with li.21s. Of the ar. ! rests i+.0sj were for intoxication. | The great number of arrests for petty offences IS interesting in the light of n recent police incident. Three poor Greek peddlers had been arrested in Bronx park charged with the awful crime of selling peanuts on Sunday. , The magistrate, in discharging them, told inc bewildcrcd Greeks that if they would only open n pool room. or n bank, or make away with millions in insurance funds, the police would never , moles, them.
 [ New Works summer tent colonies are now breaking up. During the sea. son just drawing Co n close some 6,O00 inhabitants of the metropolis have lived under canvas. Many campers have lived in the little colony under the Palisades of the Hudson, or on the beach at Staten island, and abott four hundred tents have clustered about the mouth of the Shrewsbury river. opposite Sandy Hook, but the largest camping colony. vcri'able city of tents. has been maintained at Rockaway Beach. within the city limits. Here more than a thousand tents have been maintained during the summer and the little community has established a new phase of mettopoli tan life. The campers have reduced housekeeping cares to the most primi. tive simplicity. On getting up in the morning the inhabitants are within n few steps of the ocean for morning plunge in the surf They spend mos, of the day in their bathing clothes. istencc. and men. women and children are as brown as Indians long before the season ends.
 Now that Mir. Bryan has come and vanished into the west. New York has had the opportunity to think over the impression he made on that warm evening when letters of fire under the big gildcd Diana on the dome of the Madison Square Garden blazoncd forth the mystic words:
