TIME FOR A CHANCE.

Our party system of government re euires at least two strong well.organiz esa parties in order to secure the hes, rnsults. No state ar county is well ruled vat has an overwhelming majority of one party. Texas and other south. srn states have their counterpart ex. opt in Pennsylvania. One state is as sad as the other in this regard.
 Absolute control of the machinery of government with no fear of upsctting, v bad for the morals of state or ter. wtory, and equally bad for a county, sad it's people. It is one way of fore. "g upon American citizens tho ob. aoxious features of an absolute mon. srehy.
 Under present conditions almost half tho people in yavapai county have no voice in the government. and it is not matter of up and down. in and out, sot n perpetual ring several thousand
 f'Nt' H''P''hhhN because they happen to have different ideas from the other half and kept From changing their condition because of the possession by the ruling powers of all the machinery of government. An instance of this comes in the re- fusal of County Recorder Mosher to
 
 appoint few Republicans as regist. trntion officers. The request was made by the Republican organization simply because some of the Democratic den. uties have studiously avoided giving Republicans m opportunity 10 register, and cases are known where mining camps, containing as many as forty men, have not been visited by the reg. 'stration officers, presumably because Republicans were considered In the ma. lority in those places.
 From Mir. Mosher's standpoint, 1t may be good Democratic politics, to pursue the policy of dirfranc hisement of those of opposite political faith, but | aH farminded men of his own party | Will res"nt his action, and it is likely |" prove a boomerang to his own polt.

REGISTER AT ONCE.

On october 10, registration closes for the coming election. This important part of the duty of the citizen seems to have been very generally neglected this year, as the records at the court house show that the registration is far below what 1t should he. A compari. son evidences that the number of voters on the roll is not nearly as large as at this time two years ago, and yet the population of the county has increased considerably during that time. The registration should be much larger.
 It h important that those who have aot yet done 50 should register at once. In this campaign, above all, every voter in the county should place him. sslf in n position to cast a vote.

ton of life that he now occupies.


 When be speaks here, on October 10, there is no question but there will be a great ou,pouring of the people to hear him. In the south, where he has ad dressed the voters, his campaign has been winning one.
 4 Tucson paper says: Billy Cooper is going through the Territory like n comet. Mark Smith hopes this fiery comet will expend it's force before the voting begins. But he will discover that Billy gets hotter the longer the battle wages. Billy grows facetious betimes and wins his audiences wherever he meets them. Quick tact to meet a sit. nation is evidenced Inv the fact that at one of his meetings, a black eat came in through side door and was taking look at the audience. when Billy, not tho least disconcerted spoke mp quickly, but with severity: "You get ont; this is Inonologue not a catalogue" By this quick wittcd turn, Billy captured the audience. This is only one illus traiion of his captivating wittcism. and this wins lots of votes.

THE DUTY or TRUSTEES AND
 CORPORATION DIRECTORS.

In an address to policyholdcrs of the New York and Mutual Life insurance companies. the international policy. holders committee, formed to oust the men for the controlling boards, states n Fundamental truth, bearing on the duties of directors in n corporation.
 I, is the duty of directors says thr address. to employ the best technical actual management of the details nf the insurance business. The directors are not expected or required to be ex. pert insurance men, but they shcul bo competent to deal with the large ques. tions of general policy which any com pctcnt business man is capable of in- vestigating and deciding.
 The working force of the companies. says the address, is on the whole, loyal, expert and efficient, and it should bc retained in the service. The gross mis. management of the companies. says the committee is not chargeablc to it, but those above it in office and in power. Then follows this striking enunciation of the true basis of efficient service on boards of directors
 "Wbat is wanted in the members of the new board is not expert life in. surnncc talent, hut the homcly virtues of common honesty and due regard for the requirements of the trust re- lation -- requirements which forbid the trustee, not only from stealing hlnns.lf, but also from induIying in thr nccl; gcncc which enables others to steal.'
 If that principle could be enforced in every corporation, including especially the banks. insurance companies, and all organizations holding other peoples money as trustees, the worst cy,ls x. posed in the investigations ani erim inal eases of the last few years would be done away with.

Editorial Comment

the Republican organization will now put forth stronger efforts to secure a full registration than they would hay, done had not the Recorders deputies been so notoriously unfair.
 The people. as a whole, love fail play. even in politics, and Moshcr's dis regard and contempt for it will eos, him hundreds of votes.
 The case above Is cited, not particu. larly to hurt Mosbcr's candidacy for there are graver charges against him that will later be presented, but to show one of the reasons why pre-. pondcrant party majority in n county IS a bad thing for local government. There is no opposition to call the ma. jority 'o account and the result is that the dominant party becomes insolent. corrupt nnd contemptuous of the rights of the people. Democratic misrule in favapai county is not because the of. flee holders were Democrats. but be. cause those officials became brnzen in their work through the knowledge that their party was in the majority. and that n renomination was equivalent to election.
 It is notorious fact that the recent Democratic convention played into the hands of the United Verde. just as has been done for years past. The big cop. per company did not dictate all of the nominations, simply because if had no use for the minor officers. but it's brand Is visible on two of the legislative ticket and on the principal offices. High. minded, deep-thinking Democrats are revolting against this condition of af. fairs and they take the patriotic stand that the only way to cleanse the party IS to administer n severe chastiscment this year by making n clean sweep of the court house ring and thus rcbukc thc clique that IS manipulating the party in the interest of corporation that has corrupted voters and officials in order to subscrve it's selfish ends. Word comes from all parts of the coun. iy that this idea is spreading like wild. Ire. and if it continues to grow the job.chascrs ticket is doomed to dc. | feat.

ON THE ART or MAKING ADvER.
 EASEMENTS ATTRACTIVE.

Did you ever figure how much real news value the advertisements in the
 Journal. Miner posscssl The Journal.
 Miner is the pioneer in this field in
 the actual news they contain. IL is
 through the Journal. Miners influence
 that the system of advertising has changed locally from the old form of mere announcement card, to the new
 form of compendium, up 10 the minute, of specific and timely offerings at special inducements.
 The Journal Miner spends great deal of time, work and money. to make its advertisements as much part of
 the daily budget of interesting and valuable information, as the telegraph. read the Journal. Miner get the habit of looking for the announcement of this store or that. and looking through the classified and local advertising col umns, to see what's new, and they get the habit of reading the large display advertisements of the progressive To. cnl firms, for the news they contain, the suggestions they give. and the say ings they encourage.
 Advertisers in the Journal. Miner re. ceive excellent returns from outside the city, showing that 1t is not only in Prescott that the advertisements pos xess a news value. The Journal Miner would have no excuse for dcvoting so much of its space to advertisements, unless the advertisements themselves were what the people want to read. newspaper without advertisements would be as worthless to the readers as n newspaper without telegraphie | news

When Enoch Steele, a PennsyIvanis

 city, the control of the title of the Dun
 kirk group of mines, in the Hassayamps
 district, one of the most importsn,
 mining deals of the past two week.
 was consummated.
 The group consists of eight claims.
 and is one of the oldest known location,
 of the Hassayampa district. In ths
 early days of mining here it was among
 the best producers. Two of the claims
 cover the Dunkirk vein, which runs in northcasterly and southwestcrly di.
 rection, about one-half mile south of the Davis mine, which is now being es tensivcly developed, and which also was noted producer as far back as the latter sos. when the wealth of tt, Hassayampa placers attracted hundred. of hardy prospcctors and miners to .Ls district.
 The ledge is developed by two tun. nels and number of shallow shafts, in all of which ore bodies of a fair. grade are exposed. In the lower tun. mel, which is 163 feet in length, tho average width of the paystreak varie. rom one to two feet, samples of the ore giving returns of &27 to the ton In the upper tunnel one ore shoot wa, encountered of an average width Of. three feet. extending along tho foot wall for distance of thirty. five feet. This ore gives average returns of t2C to the ton. Farther ahead in this tup. mel another shoot was found, over ll5 feet in length, which was stopped out some years ago, the payst treak in tho upper portion of the stope being frou inches to three feet in thick ness, of an average value of t35 to tLs lon, large part of which, when sorted, gives returns of over >60 to the top. The copper values in the ores varie. From . to per cent, with silver re turns of from 35 to 45 ounces to ths lon, the remaining values being old.
 MT. Steele is now perfecting plans for he development of the property on au 'xtenSive scale, active operations to Do commenced ut an early date. A su 'ey for 30-inch gauge railroad was eeently made through the district, 'asing within short distance of the amp, and it is said that the work O. the line will be commenced t an early date.
 The camp may be reached by wagon oad from this city in a distance ff bout fifteen miles, and by trail oyer he divide can be reached in nine niles.

RICHEST WOMAN HAS NO
 HOME.

NEW YORK, Sept. ,9.-Ifetty
 Green. the world 6 richest woman, is
 T homeless wanderer. She dare not
 take up her abode anywhere for fear of the insurient tax collector. Hunted by the man with the tax list, she left her home in the metropolis and took up her residence in IIoboken, New Jersey. There her quiet and frugal mode of living was interrupted by the local tax office bloodhounds, who again got on her track, and she fled to the rural peace of Bellows Falls, Vermont. In that place all went happily until the tax officers recently raised the valua. ton of her place from $lO,O00 to $2O,. 900. This Mrs. Green viewed with hor. TOT, and again it Is announced that she has given up her home and fled. This is another instance of the fact that the life of the frugal New York million. airc is not all beer and skittles. No matter to what rural wilderness he himself. the Shylocks of the tax offices find him. And they seem to insist upon treating him like any ordinary mortal subject to taxation and the law.

The plague of flcas. which infested the upper part of New York duriSg the month of August. has been succeed. ed by swarm of beggars. who clog
 the most crowded thoroughfarcs and
 poster the passersby with their i'm. portunities. Ever since last spring when Police Commissioner Bingham abolished the menJicancy squad. which kept the curbstonc grafters on the run, the number of bcggars in the city has increased alarmingly. Since carly in September the mendicants, who prefer to lead vagrant life in the country during the warm months, have returned to town. Many of the mendicants have waxed wealthy. One ragged fellow, who grinds n pitiful hand organ on Herald Square every night. is known to possess several tenement houses. The patrolmcn on the beat do not drive him away because he has a political pull. One beggar. apparently a onc.nrined hunchback, with his sole hand crippled, was arrested at the Brooklyn bridge en. trance recently. He exhibited deform. itics so horrible that the police cour, judge scored the policeman for arrest. ing him.

WHICH WILL YE CHOOSE?

IT 1aNapai county does not go Re-
 publican on November q. it will be he. cause the majority of the voters prefer
 partisanship to principle. and are gov. erncd more by their prciudiccs than
 by desire for good government.
 The Journal Miner. however does not take such pessimistic view of the sit. nation as that. |, believes that inc pco. pie of favapai county have such high conception of their duty as citizens that they will not blindly follow party die. tatcs. but this year will go to the polls
 with the determination to vote for the best candidates on either ticket.
 Recognizing the fact that n large element of the Democratic party have been for some time past dissatisfie with the present administration at the court house. and yielding to the de. mands from Democrats for an oppor. tunity to overthrow the ring rule within their own organization. the Re. publican convention selected the strong. cst ticket that has ever been presented by either party to the voters of Yava. pai county.
 Not one of its nominees was a man who sought the office; on the other hand, each candidate only consented to his name being placed upon the tickc. after repeated solicitation and by ap. pealing to his responsibilities as a ciii. zen.
 The Republican party of Yavapai county thus demonstrates that it cares more for good government and right policies than 1t cares for public office or political favors. They offer to the voters of the county guaranty of an able and economical government dur. ing the next two years, and it's candi. dates for the council and assembly are men who are identified with the min ing interests of the county and can b. depended upon not only io protect that industry, but also lend their influence in favor of all wise and beneiiccnt legislation.
 It IS such ticket. composed of clean. responsible men. and one that ought to appeal to all classes of patriotic citizens, irrespective of party affilin. lions. In fact, it is the only ticket be. fore the people that represents every leading industry in the county. The l Republican party alone recognized the men by choosing as its nom l 'nee for Recorder. n man who is prom. I 'nently identified with the wage.earners and who ought, if labor is true to its 'wn principles, receive the hearty sup. port of every laboring man throughout he county.
 The scandals in the court house and he betrayal of their public trust by iar'ous Democratic officials, are still resh in the minds of the people. The is gaining ground that |, hanged administration is imperative, lot only as the first step toward 'etterment of affairs, but as n rebuke gainst a government that is controlled rom Jerome. .
 The principal candidates on the Dem. "Fatic ticket owe their nomination to Inited Verde influence. In that re- pect It is indeed tainted ticket.
 We have that faith in the intelli. enee and honesty of our citizens. both republican and Democratic, as to jus. fly the belief that the majority of the Iectors will east their ballots on Ne. . ember q, not as partisans, but as citi. rns.
