REPUBLICANS RREFuSE TO INSTRUCT.

The republicans of Arizona have turned down with much decisiveness the proposition urged by the federal officials of this territory to send a del egation from the territory to the na- tionaI republican convention instruct ed to vote for Secretary Taft as the presidential candidate. It is believed that the result of last Saturdays pri- mary should be considered more as a rebuke to the attempt of the federal officials to control the action of the party than to an expression of any dislike for Secretary Taft. So far as any expression has been made we should judge that very large ma 5ority of the republicans of Arizona are favorable to the nomination of the secretary.
 So far as learned the only two SOuhIlCo lACAS ID O POoSlOAAAAs to secure delegates favorable to in structions are Maricopa and Graham. In the latter county it is the purpose of the, county committee to appoint the delegates from that county and it is expected that Hon. Fred Cleave- land will be able to secure at least a majority favorable to the contentious Of the governor.
 One result of the republican pri- maries held throughout the territory was to disclose the fact that in al most every county there is a bitter factionaf fight going on. In this county there was much determination displayed by the two factions to con, trol the situation and any patronage and honor which might come from being in charge of the machine. In Bisbee, especially, was there much display of hostility between the two factions and it is expected that all the wounds cannot be healed before the time for the city campaign line, up.
 We may expect some hurried work in the effort to harmonize the bitter feelings engendered as a result of the primary battles before the time comes for the assembling of the convention in Tucson. The administration forces will hardly push further the proposi, tion to instruct for Taft and will de vote their energies to bring the con. vention into line with an endorsement of the national and territorial admin. istration of the republican party.

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH PARADISE?

This question is suggested by a close perusal of the columns of the Paradise Record, edited by our good brother, Renwick White. The Record of April 3, just to hand; contains only five inches of business advertising from the inhabitants of Paradise. The paper carries a fair line of legal ad- vertising and the business houses and professional men of Douglas are rep resented with liberal space in the col umns of the Record. How can any town expect to ever attract any at tention by such a niggardly, stingy course toward it's local paper? The Record is equal to the average Ari zona weekly newspaper. It is cieanly edited and gives all the local news o' the Paradise district every week; i is certainly entitled to the patronage of the business men of Paradise which it is not receiving. Only tw' advertisements from Paradise are t be found in the columns of the Rec ord-one real estate advertisement and the other that of a physician anu surgeon.
 We would suggest that the Recor, start a campaign in the city in tn interest of the mail order houses. l might be that it would attract som attention from the local merchants il this manner and We would sugges that Paradise would be a good plac for the Douglas business men to ea ploit, as evidently the merchants c Paradise neither want or deserve tn business of the district.
 We submit that the Paradise Ret ord is an anomaly in the way of local newspaper without a single aC vertisement from a merchant of it home town.

scenery with such complexion as II have never yet seen anywhere The train stops for the tourists aboard to have a general good time, as they did at other places of interest, and hush ed in the inspiration of the scenery we hear only the roar of the great river; here it widens making a basin 800 feet wide and then again the volume of water narrows to gorge fifty feet wide and plunges through like mad to the sea A look upward and in
 more than one direction reveals to the eye, aided by a field glass, a number of bridal-veil waterfalls com in like a miniature Niagara from a Ineighth of five hundred feet above
 the river, and rushing, like horses driven hurriedly home. to join the
 seaward bound stream.
 Then came the climb from the Jor- dan river bed into little higher valley i of one of its tributaries, the Yoruk; and here is an experiece of forty miles which in some ways exceed the
 scenery from Alamogordo to Cloud . i perspective, and miles of the way we
 pass the tents of the Bedouins wno
 are busy with their flocks and blow
 ing their small patches of grain. This
 is on the east side of the Jordan ann ' is what was once called Decapolis in
 Greek times; and later in history the Romans built many forts through the
 country, the ruins of which can yet be seen. At that time the country was farmed to the utmost to fill the gran
 aries of Italy with grain. We passed the ruined town of Gadara, the place
 where the mad man lived whom our
 Lord healed, and the Turkish village
 where we took dinner is one of the
 six cities of refuge built by the an Icient Israelites. Finally we reached
 the Mesa and for miles on the plains rlof Boshan the ascent is straight until
 we reach Damascus which has an ele- lvation of 250O feet.
 Every where the land looked fertile
 and the grass was green and, it is Imy opinion that this country will sup
 port much larger population, which
 it did many years ago. Remeber the inhabitants are Turkish subjects and been sice 1516 and nationally they are a mixture of the Moabites and others
 with Arab originally from Arabia and a few Turks who have come since the conquest. The blowing planting |. and peaping are yet unchanged from ancient times. Cutting grain with g l. knife, threshing it by cattle tramp |, ing the bundles on rock, and clean
 ing the chaff in the wind are still tc
 be seen. On the Nazareth and Da mascus road I saw one day four dig
 tinct trains of loaded camels, one trail ; had fifty beasts. This is their freight ing system. Very few people ride or
 the trains except the tourists anC , Turkish officials and soldiers. Thii , was the class of train We had for tht , ride to Damascus. Several of then [ could speak a little English and mos , every one in this country speak French and the Napoleon money i

WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST, POLITICAL PIRATE.

rSGt iiSsNG Tinf%t E.
 It is plain that the democratic par. ty without regard to who is to be its presidential candidate this fall. will receive nothing but stabs from w R. Hearst and his string of metropolitan newspapers. It is very certain that
 MT. Hearst proposes to go in for re
 venge this year on a party which re fused to be prostituted by his gold
 four years ago Notwithstanding the
 protest of many democrats of Arizona
 those who secured control of the ter
 ritorial convention instructed the
 delegates from the territory to vote | for Hearst. For this there ought
 now to be general humiliation and
 shame.
 From an article published recently in the New York American it is evi-
 dent that there will be third party
 in the national political field. In the
 metropolitan representative of the Hearst newspaper trust we read
 that:
 "First-The independence party is
 not going to support Theodore Roosevelt.
 "Second-The independence party
 is not going to support William
 Bryan.
 "Third-The independence party il not going to support John A. John son.
 "Fourth-the independence party il : going to nominate its own candidat'
 and is going to vote for him with l;
 strength and heartiness of number g that is likely to be a revelation to thu B older and sadder political organiza l tions. If it does not elect this candi + date of it's own in this particular cleo j. tion, it is going to lay the solid foun : dation for doing so at the next" g Since the independence league re i fuses to support any of the mel r. talked of as the candidates of tn a great political parties, to whom doe l it intend to give it's support? Tn e question is easily answered. The 1T y dependence league knows only on s candidate. He is the founder, owne el and operator of the independenc l. league. His name is William Ra1 a dolph Hearst. 4 f From the time he first sought pull
 lie attention, MT. Hearsts career ha O been merely an open and notoriou y case of self-seeking.
 + Until Mir. Hearst developed his pel l. sonal ambitions, or had them deve e oped for him by unwise advisers an It selfish counselors whose object in Tiff It is not as plain to him as it is to otl > CTS, the journals which Mir. Hears a controlled were regarded as great il $ fuences for good. But since he ha l allowed his ambition to-rule, his pal i CTS have become tributary and ,sul y servient to that ambition, and hay l. ceased to be independent organs ( 1T thought and opinion, or even ind, is pendent news organs. To the ind n pendence league has been sacrifice T. the independence of the Hears 'e newspapers. They have ceased t n represent anything but Hearst an n Hearstism, which is to say the selfis h political program Of the worthy Wi o liam.

ADDS TO GAYETY OF NATIONS WITH AN
OTHER PIPE DREAM.
DELoIT SIGNS ROUND ROBIN
Place Nestlebush in Ananias Class on Account
Of World Herald Interview Giving Deloit
Bad Name.

Deloit people are all stirred up over
an interview published in the Omaha
World Herald on Nov. 10th in which
John P. Nestlebush is reported as say.
ing that he was victim of persecu-
tion by Deloit people because he TALK
ed for Bryan. The interview. which
is splendid example of Munchausen 8
best anecdotal style and tn reply
made by the Deloit people We put
lish herewith.
We think our friends take John
too seriously. He is splendid ad-
vance man for himself, all he wishes
is the notoriety such publications give
him. Were it not for the earnest re-
quest of Deloit friends, we would not
crafty him by this publication. The
single fact that Deloit is. and for
years has been democratic precinct
stamps the story of political persecu-
ton as absurd. But then. John
meant it to be absurd. He probably
enjoyed "stringing' the cub reporter
as much as he enjoyed seeing his name
in print in the World Herald or as he
will enjoy learning chat he has sue
ceeded in stirring Deloit to it's very
depths.
