sharpshooters could not hit me- All
about me were fallen comrades, some

heartrending shrieks in their agonies

were shot, for the Johnnies were
watching for the first one to move.

A political party is a great insti- tuition. It should be recognized and managed like any institution, and when placed in power it's duty is to perform public service and such legitimate rewards as may be given to its followers to attack men be- cause they are officeholders. It is an honor, not a crime to hold pub lie office. It is a proper reward for activity in politics, but he who &C., cepts an office should never forget that the moment he enters upon the discharge of his duties he becomes then an officer -o- all the people, not only those who voted for his election, but those who opposed 1t.

To Republicans.

We are anxious to have every Republican in close touch, and work ing in harmony with the Republican National Congressional Committee in favor of the election of a Repub- lican Congress.
 The Congressional campaign must be based on the administrative and legislative record of the party, and, that being so, Theodore Roosevelt's personality must be a central figure and his achievements a central thought in the campaign.
 We desire to maintain the work of this campaign with popular sub- scriptions of one dollar each from Republicans. To each subscriber we will send the Republican Ma tional Campaign Text Book and all documents issued by the Committee.
 Help us achieve a great victory.

Repairing Famous Church.

Bishop Granjon of the Arizona diocese of the Roman Catholic Church has begun the work of re- pairing the famous old mission church of San Xavier del Bac, on the Papago reservation, nine miles south of Tucson. The bishop has at hand several thousand dollars, con- tributed within the churches of his diocese for the making of repairs essential to the further occupancy of the noted church. It has been expected that Congress would vote Sl0,000 for the restoration of the structure, but the bill appears to have been lost. The church was guarded by Papsgo converts, even through the times when the Spanish friars were driven from the region. It is about 300 years old, and is a rare attraction to the tourist.
