RATHER A LARGE CONTRACT.

Those two or three politicians who are 10 meet in Chicago in the course of few days to construct program upon which the Democratic party can win q victory in next years contest, have what President Lincoln would have called "a big job" on their hands. As generally understood, Mir. Taggart, of the national committee, personal repre-. sentatives of Governor Folk and Gov. ernor Johnson, and two or three others. nrc to come together, lock the door, and fix things. And as part of the story, 1t is stated that neither Governor Folk nor Governor Johnson will antagonize MT. Bryan if the latter desires to lead the party again next year. We may be. lieve that. Nothing is likelier. Mir. Bryan has n firm hold on Missouri, and is not without followers in the north. west. Why should Governor Folk or Governor Johnson run counter to n strong local scntimenti
 As for Mir. Bryan, his purposes to. ward the next nomination are the sub. Ject of much talk, but maybe of little doubt. Why, if he cares for the haz. ard, should he not try againi His op. ponents in his party assert that he could not be elected, and that another defeat would put an end to him, not only politically, but as m entertain .r. Where would his gate receipts come from after thatf Who would care to listen to man who had talked so much and had no futurel
 It is not easy to conceive of Mir. Bryan as wholly n back number. An. other defeat for the presidency might put him out of all future calculations for that place, but it would not rob him of his smile, his fluency, or his abounding self-eonadencs, and while he retains those gifts he will secure a hearing. His personal acquaintance is probably wider than that of any other man who has ever appeared in our public affairs. For eleven years he has been continually on the jump, has visited every section of the country, and met not only the local leaders of both parties, but hundreds of thous. ands of the rank and file. He has many admirers even among those who differ radically with him on all public questions

MARSHAL KENNEDY EXPLAINED HIS
 ACTIONS Mexicans Alleged He Extorted $55 From
 Them
(From Tuesday's Daily.)

large number of our citizens were in an excited state of mipd, last week, when n rumor became current that a warrant had been sworn out for the arrest of Town Marshal James Ken. nedy, on a charge of extortion.
 From what we were able to learn the town marshal had arrested three Mexicans and upon searching them he found $55, which amount he deposited in the depths of his pockets, and then told them to appear for trial on the 3rd of next month.
 The Mexicans, after telling Henry Aphold (who speaks Spanish very finently) their tale of woe, and accom. panied by Mir. Aphold as interpreter. repaired to Judge Langin's E office and asked the judge if the city marshal had turned over to him $55, which the marshal had taken from them. Upon the judges reply that he knew nothing or the money, the men gave his honor full information concerning the affair. and Judge Langin then telegraphed for District Attorney Ashurst, who. shortly after his arrival here, investi. gated the matter, and had a warrant issued for Kennedy's arrest.
 MT. Kennedy, at the time the com. p'aint was made, was in Flagstaff, at.
 
 tending meeting of the board of sup. ervisorS, but upon being informed of tho action that had been taken over the arrest of the Mexicans he imme. diately returned to Williams, and after satisfactory explanations to the dis. triot attorney 50 1t is rumored, the warrant was not served and the case was dismissed.

SUCCESS TO rRANTZ!

Governor Frantz of Oklahoma, who is ahectionately remembered by nun dreds of people in Prescott, his old home, as we'll as by hosts of people all over Arizona, as "Frank' Frantz. seems to have had the most brilliant success in capturing the people of Ok. lahoma, as the gallant Rough Rider regiment did in capturing San Juan Hill. It will be remembered that Can. tain Frantz, with many other intrepid Arizonans, helped to make history dur. ing that memorable battle, and Presi dent Roosevelt, in recognition of his services as soldier, appointed nim as governor of Oklahoma. Now that Ok lahoma is about to be admitted ms n state, both parties have nominated state ticket, and it is matter of gen. eral interest to Arizona people that Frantz, an old Prescott man, has been nominated by the Republican state convention as candidate for governor of the now state.

regard, was brought to light by the investigation now being made by the new Public Utilities Commission an. pointed by Governor Hughes.
 This commission is trying to find out what basis Mir Ryan had for merging his surface roads with the Belmont suh. way, which was built by the city at m expense of *35,0OO,OOO, and handed over to Mir Belmont for operation.
 This virgin property Mir. Ryan ab sorbcd with the aid of the Mcclellan administration, and immediately ia. sued sioO,OOO,OOO of new securities.
 This merger was fought in tine Lcpis. lature by Lieutenant Governor Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler, but in face of the corruption fund that was behind the measure, he was powerless to stop its passage. It was this fight that brought Chanler conspicuousiy before the public as vital force in politics. It insurcs him the support of Murphy and Tammany Hall in his fight for the Democratic nomination for tho presi. dency. With the leader of Tammany in control of the Democratic state mach inc, as is now the case, the New York delegates will be for Chanler.
 Mir. Ryan is now in Europe and will remain while this investigation of the city railroads is in progress.
 The counsel for the Utilities Com mission intimatcs that he is going to probe this traction swindle to the bot tom and suggests that District Attor- ney Jerome bring the attention of the Grand Jury to the matter.
 The securities based upon this mcrp. CT are now selling for almost nothing on the Stock Exchange, and in Wall Street circles it is whispered that Ryan has dumped his load, leaving Belmont ito carry the bag," as the phrase in the Street goes.
 Should Jerome really get busy there will be m exodus of politicians and so-called fnanciers. An honest prose- cution would send many men wno now hold respectable places in society, poli- ties and finance to the penitentiary.
 Before it is over it may mako Chan Ter President, as he intends to offer his services to the District Attorney to prosecute these experts in high poli. ticai finance. It was the prosecution of political criminals that made Tildeu a possibility and history may repeat itself in the case of Chanler.

NEW YORK, Sep. 2.-Thc city of New York just now is facing finan. cial crisis, the like of which it mas not known since the days of Tweed. | Under Mcclellan there has been rcgin of graft that has not only destroyed the credit of tho city, but has brought it close to the line of bankruptcy. This was instanccd last week when an issue of $l5,000.O0O bonds went n. begging at four per cent. Mcclellan, who was away on n vacation, rushed back to the city called a meeting of the Sinking Fund Commission, length. cncd the term of the bonds to 50 years, and raised the interest to l.2 per cent. Even at this price no one can be found to take the bonds and gen. eral cessation of public work is threat. encd unless some way can be found to finance the city.
 This administration of public af. fairs is due entirely to Mcclellan 's ignorance of what is going on about him. He is surrounded by band of political highwaymcn that were handed to him by Thomas F. Ryan, of the Traction Trust, when that gentleman ordered Mcclellan to break away from Tammany Hall, and their one long suit is graft.
 Under the first Tammany- Mcclellan administration determined effort was made by Tammany's corporation coun. sel, John J. Delany, to collect the $30,. 100000 in back taxes owed by Ryan E city railroads. In this way it was hoped that the city would get in enough money to pay current expenses.
 Likewise, the present head of Tam. many Hall was against the merger of the city traction companies. Mir. Ryan remonstrated and threatened to des. troy Tammany by taking Mcclellan away from it unless Leader Murphy agreed to let-up in the policy of fore. ing the railroads to pay their taxes.
 MT. Murphy was obdurate and the result every one knows. Mcclellan opened war on Tammany, forced Del. any to resign as corporation counsel, and has absolutely failed to collect n dollar of the millions owed by the cor. porations to the city. During the cn. tire second administration Mcclellan has been dominated by Mir. Ryan.

DANIELS COMET |S bEC0M|NG
 PLA|NER
Rises About 4 O'clock In Morning--ls Brightest
 Before Dawn
Ffom Tuesday's Dsily.l

The comet, claimed as it's own pri- Va'e discovery, by the Morning Cour- Ter, Tucson and Phoenix papers, and some nifty others, but which was in reality discovered by Zaccheus Daniels or the Princeton astronomical observa- tory, June 10, has continued almost steadily to increase in brightness and visibility, and is still an object of great interest to Prescott star -gazers. Tho head is about as conspicuous as the Pole star. At present, owing to The dimming influence of the moon light or other celestial objects. the tail does not now appear quite as distinct 'y as it did few days ago, but a week or so hence that influence will be al. most imperceptible. The tail has re. gently mad length of more than twen. ty degrees.
 The Daniels comet rises in the east aoout 4 o'clock in the morning or short y afterward, and is seen to the best advantage n little before the earliest indications of dawn-say at 4:5O. since 1t was first discovered it has travelled to the eastward. Several weeks ago it was in the constellation or Iaurus. Last week it passed be- tween Procyon (the Little Dog star) ana the brightest stars in Gemini, Gas. LOT and Pollux. The path it is fol. lowing would, if extended in imasina. .'on, run pretty close to Regulus, in the handle of the sicklc.like system of stars m Leo, but Leo does not come above the horizon now until about two hours after the comet.
