An administration pie nlg enough 10 20 around among the multitude Of hungr hanger-ons would cover the map of Arizona and b ul 2 e over into Sonora.

Some Traits of
 Abraham Lincoln

An extraordinary amount of literary matter is pouring out on the life and character Ot Abraham Lincoln, the cen tennial of whose birth comes tomorrow. The theme is prominent in the newspapers and periodicals of every civil lzed country. Truly as the Globe Democrat says. Lincoln is a living force not only in his own country but in the world, and the more the na- tions move toward free insti- tutions the more powerful his example is felt to be in the affairs of men. The reasons for this growth of influence must be sought in a rare breadth of qualities for many famous men have been identi- fled only with their own period, and some of the great est renown, like Napoleon, seem to posterity to be a warning rather than a guid- ing an d 'sheltering beacon light.

\ lette. was received here tod ay from Representative Neill Bailey in
 reply to one sent. asking him to use his vote against tte passage Of the
 ranger bill over the governors veto
 By request the name of the addIessee
 is withheld.
 His reply is follows:
 'I have your letter of February 4.
 I am of course grateful for the help you or any other democrat may have given me during the late election.
 You have a poor conception, however, of the obligation of a member of the legislature when you seek to cause him to vote one way or the other by threatening to give or withhold your support on future occasions. That part of your letter does not merit reply, but for your information may say that I never have been in favor of the repeal of the rangers. When the bill to repeal was, however, made party measure and brought before the democratic caucus it became the dutj of every member of that caucus to vote as the majority decided. which in this case was to vote for the passage os the bill.
 'I am a democrat and believe that in the priuoipIes of the democratic party will the best interests of our territory be conserved. l therefore the party caucas. as did all ether members of the party in this ] legislature. No member of the party | will so far stultify himself as to vote with the few republican members to sustain the governors veto, should one be made"
