Public Sentiment In WOOdlaEn

The resignation of Alderman Burrus and the rumored resignation of other al ermen in Woodlawn makes plain the deep feeling that exists in that fine suburb over the annexation question.
 The matter is, however, very simple, or rather the remedy for this agitation in midsummer weather is simple, easy and wholly feasible. Woodlawn needs at this time a referendum. It needs an exercise Of. popular government. The city council has no more right to refuse the people the right to vote on the motion of annexation than it has a right to deny them the privilege to choose a mayor and aldermen at the times legally specified. A denial would be as unjust in the one case as in the other.
 No one knows what the qualified voters of Woodlawn desire in the re- spect of annexation, but all do know they have a moral right to referen- dunn on this subject. A little more of the spirit of the Declaration of Inde- pendenee is needed in Woodlawn. The people still rule, and an appeal to the people is all that Woodlawn needs in order to regain that peace and har- mony that have long existed in it's beautiful streets and happy homes.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

From the New York Press.
 The best rule about bringing up your children is not to have any.
 Half the time the reason a girl wants to marry a man is he doesn't want her to.
 Anyway, woman does as well at obey ing her husband as he does at cherish ing her.
 There never was a thin woman who would admit that she was that way all over.
 You don't find any widows willing to believe that lightning will never strike twice in the same place.

uNCoNsIDERED STATEMENT or A MARICoPA COUNTY CANDIDATE FOR OFFICE LEADS TO MERRI. MENT AT HIS EXPENSE.

Some of the county candidates are telling of slip of the tongue made by one of their number, says the Phoen x Republican. The story has been related in more or less confidence, so that the name of the orator is withheld. Ever his political complexion must be kept secret but it may be said without a violation of confidence that he IS not a republican.
 Hoxever, that is matter that can. not be kept hidden very long for the orator is destined shortly to remove the laurel from the brow of Sir Boyle Roche who has held it until now.
 It happened at a school house in one of tho outside precincts. The speaker had discoursed quite eloquently con corning local issues and had put forth more or less unanswerable arguments in favor of the defeat of his opponent. Finally he spoke briefly of himself and h:s higher aspirations. He craved neither wealth nor fame but he desired to secure as heritage to his children an untarnished name.
 Said he: "Ladies and gentlemen, my highest ambition is to live that when I am laid beneath the cold, cold ground, must be very soon, my friends, without subjecting themselves to charge of inconsistency may place above my head a modest tombstone on which there shall be engraved the in scription, Here Lies An Honest Man. : And when my acquaintances and even strangers pass my grave and their eyes are caught by that inscription, and they stand and peruse it, that shall be the happiest moment of my life"

NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-After admis. sino of testimony of John W. Gates, former Judge Morgan-J. O 'Brien, Chas. Nj. schwab, John II. Flagler and Will. liam r.

 The days session furnished number of sensations, not the least of which was the declaration of W. W. Lee, for. mer vice president of the bank, that on the day of the institution g collapse, Curtis, the president, had said to him: "I have just told Morse that he has busted the bank.'

Once the great truth is revealed to the voter as to what republicanism and democra- cy stand for in this ection, he must forget party name and party cand' dates and vote for the man whose election means great, thrilling injection of national life blood into Arizona s veins at the very beginning of her statehood career.

VOTE FOR THE MAN

Here is the political situation in a nutshell, says .the Phoenix Gazette. The republican party has removed it's caneerous growths and goes before the people the party of Lincoln and Roose- welt. The democratic party has dis charged it's surgeon and abandoned it. self to the mclean. To admit even the possibility of the American people abandoning the republic to the mercy of the democratic cancer is to question the wisdom of Providence, which has had the destinies of the republic in its keeping since its inception. To elect Ralph Cameron to congress is to ally the state at it's inception with political health, to send the live blood of the nation coursing joyously through Ari- zona's veins, to give vigor to every line of industry, mining, agriculture, stock raising and the development of her splendid attraction which in the end are to make of Arizona tho playground of the nation.
 On the other hand, to elect Mark Smith to congress is to. give notice to the world that Arizona is not progress i've, that she is content with stagna- ton, that, she does not desire closer al liance with the great healthy national life, and is content to tolerate the can cer yet awhile.
 Should politics be allowed to stand in the way of satisfying this question

RA|LROADSURVEY|NG RAISES CURIOSITY
 IN PHOENIX
CORPS OF ENGINEERS WORKING
 ALONG THE AGuA FRIA SUP
 POSED TO BE DOING RAILROAD WORK FOB SOUTHERN PACIFIC.

PHOENIX, October 27.--People who have come up from the lower valley re. gently speak of mysterious railroad survey which is in progress there. Four railroad surveyors with a large corps of men have been operating in the vic inity of the Agua Fria and that William Moore, who lives on the Agua Fria had been employed by them to assist in finding the best crossing. It is the supposition in that part of the country that the survey has something to do
 with the extension of the Southern Pa eifc from Phoenix in that direction. When Colonel Randolph was last here about three weeks ago he was asked about the intentions of the company to begin operations and said with con siderable positiveness that the company had no immediate plans. He added that no new work would be undertaken on the Hartman lines anywhere in the United States until things throughout the country got settled and until here was an assurance that they would stay settled for some time.
 The Los Angeles papers few days ago mentioned that an engineering corps of twenty-four men had just left for the Imperial country, in connection with the San Diego and Arizona pro iect and that they would extend their trip as far as Yuma. It is quite pos sible that this corps, which is operating in the vicinity of the Agua Fria for there is general understanding, not based on any authentic information, however, that it is the purpose of the San Diego and Arizona to establish connection with the Southern Pacific at Yuma and eventually reach Phoenix by the way of Yuma.
