NEVER in the history of Arizona
has the republican party given d
more complete surprise than. it did
last Saturday at Prescott when Ralph
Cameron was named as the unanimous
choice for delegate to Congress to
face the distinguished Mark Smith
Ralph Cameron is a pioneer of Coco
nino county and his name was not
mentioned until very short time be-
fore the meeting of delegates at the
convention. He is the man who will
be the cause of bringing the repub-
licans of Arizona toy ether at the gen
eral election in November and his ac-
quaintauce in the northern end of
the territory is such that he will no
doubt leave with a ma jority that will
make Mr.. Smith hustle. Mr.. Cam

while not extensively Known in the
southern counties he will prove him
self to be a progressive statesman

On Sunday afternoon Morenci
crossed bats with the visitors for two
games and before starting it was
agreed by both sides to limit them to
seven innings each. Collins was in
the box for Globe and Morenci took
the bat. The first ball thrown was
hit to Pinyon on short, who made a
tumble and allowed Crittenden to get
to first. A hit by Weisel advanced
him to third and Weisel was caught
at second. Quick hit a fast one to
Pinyon, who used poor judgment in
throwing to first instead of cutting
off the run. Crittenden scored and
this one score proved to be the win
ner. Harmon had his pitching clothes
ON and gave the visitors little chance
to score, thirteen laying it down at
home plate. The hits were even on
both sides and there was never more
than one hit made in any one inning;
each pitcher allowing a total of four.
Harrigan was selected as umpire and
while the ERA does not approve of
roasting the Jump" some of his de-
cisions on balls and strikes even made
the pitcher smile. To one umpiring
from the grandstand Globe suffered
several pretty hard jolts when they
had chance to score, but the visit
ors accepted the decisions without
kicking. The game should have been
for extra innings. The following is

THE GLOBE SERIES.
Visitors Lose To Clifton and Break Even
With MOrenCi.

On Saturday afternoon the Eagles
met the Clifton team in the midst of
Il light shower and for a while it
looked as though the game was off,
but after the rain the diamond was In
good shape for playing. The Clifton
team was in unusual good form and
the boys started with their heads to-
gether. Pique was in the box for
Clifton and walked the first man up,
but Mason gobbled the runner when
he was not looking for it, making the
first out. The other two were easy.
Weisbecker, who performed in the
box several years ago for Clifton, was
in the box for Globe, but his arm was
sore and he had no steam. He pitched
a balloon to Williams, who drove it
through Ford on third, getting sim
gle. Dunn sacrificed and Williams
took second. Longwell followed with
fast grounder; a tumble took place
and Williams scored. When the side
was retired Clifton was two runs to
the good, caused by one hit, two walks
and an error. This gave the boys
steam and from that time on they
played fast ball, making runs by the
sacrifice route, which looked good to
the grandstand. Weisbecker took to
the field after the first inning and
Quinleven took the slab, but he was
too wild to do good work. He was
not hit hard, however, End the game
should have been a close one with
proper support. The Clifton boys
played ball and suppo. ted the pitcher
when in tight places. The Globe
boys slugged the ball but the Clifton
stone wall was too much for them and
they had to give up to the story OF

IN THE death of Cakes Murphy at
Coronado, Cal, last Saturday, Ari-
IONA has lost a worthy son that was
ever loyal to her interests and thou
sands of people in Arizona have lost
a dear friend. His death came as a
shock to every community in the ter
ritory. For twenty years he was a
prominent figure in the business and
political life of Arizona, and he
served the territory as governor two
successful terms in which he won the
admiration and friendship of even
those situated on the op posite side of
the political fence. In the Passing
of a man of nobility, it is customary
to select some characteristic and to
stamp it as the most marked. In
Cakes Murphy it seems that loyalty to
his friends was his most marked char
acteristic. If he was to be swerved
from this course, it took al the pow
ers and influence TO make him do so
In Yavapai county where he started
his career in this territory, he showed
Il side of his character which in later
years was not so pronounced. He
loved the hills, the pines and the out
door life and many and many an hour
in the early morn and late in the
evening, he roamed over the noun
tains and through the valleys sur
rounding Prescott, hunting the rab-
bit and quail. AS an official he took
front rank in Arizona and wherever
he went he held his own with the
men of the day. He was a brilliant
man whose early education had been
mellowed by years of experience and
association with other able men. In
the passing of Cakes Murphy Ari-
IONA has indeed lost a true friend.

In the second game the tide changed
considerably. Wynne took the box
for Morenci and Collins started on
the double header in a more deter
mined manner than in the first game.
Morenci took the bat and the side
was retired in one, two, three order.
Grey bumped Wynne for a safe one,
Shute sacrificed him to second. Quin-
leven was too anxious to hit and
stabbed the atmosphere three times.
Pinyon looked at four and passed to
first. The opportunity presented it
self and Pitcher Collins proceeded to
win his own game by making clean
two Dagger, scoring Grey. Morenci
could not get started right and in
stead of sacrificing the boys swung.
In the fourth and fifth they had
possible chance to score, having made
two safe hits in each inning. Sacri-
fees in each inning certainly would
have Melted run each time. Out
side of these two innings they had no
possible chance to score. The score
remained 10 until the last half of
the fifth, when Globe earned another
run after chances looked impos-

The Clifton ball team leave this
week for Globe, where they will play
that visited here last week. The lC-
Gals are preparing a good lineup and
will make things interesting for the
Eagles. Clifton is having some
trouble in fortifying herself in the
pitching line, one or two of the old
pitchers have departed, hence they
may not be able to play the entire
series as strong as desired. However,
they are in a position to interest the
Globe team and instead of taking all
the games, will be satisfied with
majority. The team leaves Saturday
morning and special round trip rate
of 1895 has been made for all who
care to 90.

1--WE did not admit into the union

The most palpable instance of the
lnsincerity of the Chicago convention
Is found in its declaration respecting
the issuance of injunctions. 1t would
have been entitled to more respect if
it had omitted all mention of the sub
ject. AT sessio natter session of Con-
gress labor has pleaded for relief from
the abuses of injunctons but its APP
there has been no indication that rem
edial legislation Of any character
would be enacted The oligarchy in
House and Senate has decided that
nothing shall be done to weaken any
advantage that corporations have
gained in labor disputes.
The fact is that all our citizens,
without respect TO station or occupa-
ton in life have a genuine respect for
the courts anu desire to maintain
their integrity.
The charge that the courts are be-
ing assailed is simply made for the
purpose of diverting attention from
the real issue. Heretofore it has not
been considered treason or an unwar-
Tantable attack upon the honor of the
courts to define their jurisdiction. pre-
scribe their procedure, restrict their
processes and generally to fix the
bounds within which judicial func-
ions shall be exercised.
1t makes no difference whether the
courts are acting in excess Of their
jurisdiction or strictly within their
delegated powers.
In either case the people have a
right to throw additional safeguards
around human liberty. There can be
no reflection upon the honesty of the
courts in the passage Of a measure
that will confine the equity powers Of
the federal judiciary within such
bounds as the people OF the United
states, and around the legislative
branches Of their government may de-
termine. This Democratic convention
must frankly and unequiVOcally
pledge itself TO such legislation as will
prevent the writ OF injunction from
being converted into an instrument of
oppression.
We have something to do in this
convention besides pointing out evils
and calling the Republican party to
task for the part II has played in
creating and perpetuating abuses.
Democracy is once more called to the
arena 70 battle for the sacred princl-
pies Of self-government. It must
wage an uncompromising war for the
return of the government to the hands
OF the people and this means that the
phalanx of special interests must be
broken. The triumph Of the people
can come only through the Demo-
cratic party for the life Of its chief
