N. o. Murphy was a brother of Hon.
F. NJ. Murphy, president of the Santa
Fe, Prescott and Phoenix railroad
Both have been regarded for years
as instrumental in accomplishing
much for the territory. 1t was the
Murphys who promoted the railroad
from the north TO Phoenix; IT was the
Marphys who never gave up the fight
until Fort whipple had been re-estab-
lished, after the war department had
abandoned and partly dismantled it.
In the death of N. o. Murphy the
territory has lost one of its honored
pioneers who rendered many services
to Arizona.

IMAGINATION

A prominent physician tells this:
a man came to the hospital dying Of
cancer of the stomach. There was q
spot on his front about the size of a
silver dollar which was so tender you
couldn't touch it without making hin
yell like a demon. He was wasted
away to such degree that you could
almost push his bones through his
skin. After making an examination
l called in my assistants for consalta
ton. We retired to the ante-room and
agreed that there was no cancer al
all, but to relieve the mans mind ]
decided upon an operation. We put
him under ether. scarifed his skin
rather mercilessly, l confess, dressed
the wounds and covered the patch
with court plaster. That poor devil
thought he had been cut all to pieces
and part of his insides cut out. He
was relieved, and is no wfat and lusty.
1t only shows what imagination can
do"

ARIZONA LOSES
LOYAL FRIEND.

The announcement of the death OF
Hon. N. o. Murphy of Phoenix, who
died at San Diego, Cal, on Saturday
last, will create universal sorrow
throughout Arizona Mr. Murphy was
twice governor of Arizona, a distinc-
ton never conferred on any other man.
During his terms as governor he made
an excellent official record and be-
came very popular with the people
of the territory. He was a man of
ability and devoted all his energies,
whether in or out of Office. to those
things which meant the progress of
Arizona and the development of the
resources of the territory,
For many years before he was
called to Phoenix, first as secretary
Of the territory, he resided in Pres.
colt where he was universally popu-
lar and filed the Office of county re-
corder one term. In 1894 he became
the republican candidate for congress
and was elected and this was a dis
tinction that no other republican has
received in the territory since 1884.
While always loyal republican and
always active in promoting the sue,
cess of that party Cakes Murphy was
man who became popular with the
democrats as well as republicans; his
disposition was to forget politics in
all matters concerning the upbuilding
of Arizona and during his official life
he spent much of his time in Wash.

people of Arizona. During the joint

Arizona who was more faithful or en-,

THE REPUBLICAN,
PLATFORM.

The republican platform adopted al
Phoenix last Saturday by the terri
torial convention is mostly devoted &c
the praise OF Governor Kibbey. j
was prepared by the political friends
of the governor and no one win OBJ
ject to the governor receiving
the laudstions which no doubt are
pleasing to him. All the republican
conventions in Arizona have always
endorsed the republican governor Sc
there is no reason why Kibbey should
not be endorsed, but the platform in
speaking kindly of the governor goes
| beyond the limit of ruth in making
the claims that in each county the tax
rate has been lowered as a direct result
of the action of Governor Kibbey and
his administration in the territory.
The fact that taxation has been re-
duced in the territory is gratifying to
all, democrats and republicans alike
That is a thing for which we an have
been laboring. The reduction of taxes
in the several counties of the territory
has been brought about by the energy
of those who have been developing
the resources of the country, who
have been enlarging the agricultural
industry, who have been developing
mines and increasing the output of
mineral; there has been no govern
mental act which in itself rendered
to reduce taxes except the new mine
tax bill passed by the last legislature
after it had been bitterly opposed by
Governor Kibbey and his entire Off
cial family. That law resulted in in
creasing the assessed value Of produc-
| ing mines to more than double what
the previous assessments had been,
but that law was passed by a twothirds
majority in the legislature over the
strenuous opposition of the governor
In what way is Governor Kibbey en-
titled to credit for the progress of this
territory? Admitting that he has ad,
ministered the laws efficiently and
conscientiousIy we submit that he was
not in a position to pass any new
laws in the territory and that for
any beneficial legislation which has
resulted in bettcring conditions here

the people are indebted to the demo

lar to the democratic territorial plat.
form so far as that subject is con
eerned and it is possible that this
question of high freight rates in Ari'
IONA was brought TO the attention OF
the governor by the democratic plat
form. as two years ago when he sent
his message to the legislature the
railroads of the territory or the prices
they were charging for freight or pas,
senger hsuls were not mentioned IN
the messe ge.
The republican platform agrees
with the democratic platform in fav,
oring good roads in the territory.
On the question of statehood the
republicans pledge their candidate to
favor the admission of the territory
and then goes further and calls atten.
ton to the danger of the perfidous re.
fusal of a republican congress to pass
The statehood bill should the people
of Arizona sect democrat this fall.
On the whole the republican plat
form should be entirely satisfactory
to the territorial republican admins
tration and should prove a healing
saIye for the wounds which were ad-
ministered to the Kibbeyites in the
republican convention held at Tucson
last spring. Aside from this it will
attract no attention in Arizona.

ANOTHER VICTIM
FROM THE NORTH.

The republican territorial eonven
ton held at Phoenix last Saturday
placed the political burden on the
north and designated Ralph Cameron
of Flagstaff as the republican to stand
before Hon. Marcus A. Smith in the
campaign which must be made be
tween now and November. As we don't
find the name of Ralph Cameron men,
toned in the encyclopedias or in
who's Who" we are not in a posi-
ton to answer the question which is
coming from all over southern Ari
iona as to the identity of the repub,
lican candidate-for congress by Civ.
ing any definite information concern.
ing him.
He has been a resident of Coconino
county for a number of years where
he was at one time sheriff and recent
ly he has been a member of the board
of supervisors of that county. He
owns a hotel at the rim of the Grand
Canyon and several years ago built a
trail from the rim to the bottom of
the canyon.
His nomination as a candidate for
congress over such men as Kibbey,
Attorney General Clark, Colonel L.
w. Powell, Hoval A. Smith, Bob Nor
rison, Lorenzo HubbeIl, General Samp-
son, Colonel Herring, Pop Sturges
and dozens of other prominent men in
the republican party is beyond the
comprehension of democrats and re-
publicans alike in this section of the
territory. The nomination is nothing
more nor less than an agreement that
it will be better for the territory Of
Arizona to return Mark Smith to con-
CESS; we doubt if there was a single
delegate in the Phoenix convention
who had the slightest hope that Cam
eron could defeat the democratic can
didate this fall.
Cameron is totally unknown in
southern Arizona, except as to &C
quaintances at Phoenix where he has
done considerable lobbying in promot-
ing legislation favorable to some of
the big enterprises in which he is in
terested.
Mr.. Cameron is said to be a very
nice fellow and socially is popular
among those who now him, but the &C
tion of the republican convention was
the first intimation anyone had that
congressional. timber was to be found
in Ralph Cameron of Flagstaff. On this
aeeoupt It is believed that this nomi-
nation was given to him by Governor
Kibbey as a reward for his loyalty to

a general rough house, The Oliver
men seemed to recover instantly
from their surprise aud they made
a ruse to get the Evans men off the
speakers stand and the rostrum as
well. They made at Newell San
ders and at Lillard and grabbed
arms, legs, throats, coats, feet,
hands-anything that was visible
and tangible and terrible strug-
gle took place that lasted for a time
that seemed an age not only to those
who participated, but even to on
lockers. At first the Evans men
held their ground. Chairman San
ders, Marshal Duggan, Deputy Mar

fought like demons. Collars and
ties were torn off; men smashed in

save for the fact that the cops had

men at this time seemed to have the
better of the situation and the Ev-
ans men were up in the air. Some
were talking of holding another
convention at later date to be an
nounced by the State Committee.
Some wanted to hold their conVen-
ton following the restoration of
order. The Oliver people went on
and transacted til cir business,

Other men who were supporting
Chairman Sanders were disposed
of likewise. Sam Sells, Chairman

ton in East Tennessee, had been
helping to hold up Chairman San
ders. He was thrown off and some
one hit him with chair and a good
many ticks were passed at him as
he was down. John Jackson, of
Columbia, was thrown off and his
arms pinioned.
Weisenberg, of Memphis, who had
Newell Sanders by the feet helping
support him, was also got out of the
way and then it came Mr.. Sanders
turn. The Oliver men had been af-
ter him all the while but his lieu
tenants up to this time had sue
ceeded in fighting them off, With
his reinforcements gone Mr. San
ders fell victim to the attacking
party. The cries of 'throw him
off; throw him off" that had re-
sounded through the hall and which
emanuated from the Threats of hun
dreds of Oliver rownlow- Austin
men, we're followed by a physical
"throwing-him-off.

H. M. Cox, IF Morristown, al
sturdy built mountaineer, made a
rush at Newell Sanders and got
him by the throat with both his
brawny hands. Then he bore the
Evans leader down off the east side
of the rostrum out into the surging
mass. He seemed to tighten his
hold all the while and it was seen

and turn paler still and there were

seemed to be in a bad way. Hewas
exhausted from the punishment he
had received and was pale and weak

SQUAD OF POLICE.
About this time Sergts. Reid aud
Meadows arrived with a squad Of
police, and they took charge of the
rostrum. Contrary to the expecta-
tions of the Evans men, the police
men did not attempt to decide which
faction or factions were entitled to
possession of the rostrum, but an
nounced that they had come to.pre-
serve order. The Evans men earlier
in the morning had confidently ex-
pected that the police would recog-
nize them as the ones to take charge
and would clear the hall of the Oil
yer men. In fact, they had so stat
ed on many occasions.
The meeting then seemed to re-
solve itself into confused gather
ing, with two sides trying to hold a
convention at the same time and in
the same place. The Oliver Chair
man. Will |. Davis, was mounted on
top of the big eagle back of the
Speakers stand, making motions.
Lower near the rostrum the Evans
men were trying to do business also.

as much confusion reigned as ever

fresh recrdits from the Oliver forces

Newell Sanders seemed to be the
object of attack. 1t was anything
to put him down. With disheveled
hair, face as pale as death, his
collar and tie torn and his clothes
generally disarranged, he tried to
fight them off, as did his lieuten-
ants, but to no avail.
