That old stand by principle of the Republican party, "internal improve improvements," - ments," improvements," bee pgain been vindicated in Congress, by the passage over tbe Pre President's - sident's President's veto of the river and harbor im provement bill, and there were a good many Democrats voted for it too, which goes to show tbat the principle is sound and growing in importance and popular popularity. - ity. popularity. Although the president, vice-presi dent and every member of ths oabinet, except Secretary Morton, was io Wash ington the only member of the adminis tration who attended any of tb memorial day exercises was Secretary Herbert, who is an ex-oonfederate. This bas been commented upon -to a considerable extent, as there wae no exouse other than want of inclination why those officials should cot have paid their respects to the memory of the men who gave up their lives to make it possible for them to bold their present offices. ; Senator Sqcier, as the first step to wards the erection of a suitable memo memorial - rial memorial to Gen. Grant, has introduced i bill for tbe creation of a commission composed of tbe Secretary of War, the Chairman of tbe House and Senate joint Committee on Library, and the Architect of tbe Capitol. Tbe duties of tbis commission will be to secure from leading artists and architects plans and estimates for a monument, eaob artist or architect being at liberty to make his own, and the estimated cost of tbe-same. All these plans are to ba reported to to Congress. After consideration Sen Senator - ator Senator Squier 'concluded that tbis was a better plan than that of bis original bill, providing outright for a monument to Gen. Grant. He wishes the monu ment to be tbe best that oan be suggest ed, and believes the oreation of this commission is the best way to get it. "Ole Kaiktuck" Democracy seems to be badly shaken tip jnet cow. Tbe Courier-Journal, Watterson'a paper. and a typical Democratic exponent of that portion of the country, thinks any Republican can now. carry Kentucky Speaking of tbe recent actions of tbe Democracy of tbat state, it says: "Tbey have repudiated the only Pres President - ident President tbe Democratic party bas eleoted and seated for over fifty years.

It is to be hoped that the conscience of tbe Arizona Democracy as met in convention here today will read tbe above from- tbeir great exponent and wonder where it is "at." The Hon. Wbitelaw Reid, on bis wBy borne to New York from tbis city made a call on MoKinley, as appears from the following dispatches: "Cleveland, Ohio, June 4.

"Tbe question should be, Can he re refuse?" - fuse?" refuse?" "Would you accept the place?" . "I am cot a candidate." "Should protection or silver be made the chief issue?"

never-failing mercy from on high sent its messenger "Death, and bushed tbe voices of F. M, and John Doll foreever Tbe two heartless villiacs, eager to irrasD the reward and spoils of tbeir bloody work, returned to tbe store. To their surprise aod consternation the dead body of Mrs. Doie was not there Thev searched for her in tbe tbioket where she lay hiding, passing at times a few feet from her, continually whistling aod signaling to each other.- Their search was futile, a shadow from the bund of an angel darkened that one little spot, obscuring from the vision of the two monsters (whose highest motive was tbe carving of one more human heart) that poor, saiverin?, tortured soul. Mre.Djll'a eyea-and sight are unimpar- ed, though her face ia blaokened with powder. She has lived to appear in court and point her shaking finger in the face of Jesus Lares and say "That is tbe man," and declare that time cannot remove tbe impression of tbat face from her memory. Mr. Editor, the evidence shows that Lares planned and talked of the assault on the boll store during the ten days preoeding the murder. That on the day of tbe murder be said, "Now is the time, I have been at tbe store and the till ie heavy;" that the sheriff and posse followed tbe horse and mule tracks from tbe Doll store to Table Mountain, where they found Lares; that the seven or eight alibi witnesses who contradict ed themselves three times at the preli preliminary - minary preliminary examination all left the oountry soon as tbey could get away, and before the trial in tbe District Court; that Lares' hat, though not presented to tbe jury, shows conclusive evidence of hav ing been washed, and that blood stains are upon it yet; that Mrs. Doll's ldenti ldenti-fioation - fioation ldenti-fioation was oomplete and convincing, and that Lares was the leader beyond the least possible doubt. The twelve men who as jurors tried tbe case are numbered among the best and most intelligent citizens of Pinal county. The rulings of the Hon. Judge Rouse were just and impartial, and tbe review of the case by tbe Supreme oourt was oomplete and oareful. Lares has said since the trial to Sheriff W. O. Truman and Deputy Sheriff P. K. Young, that the tracks supposed to have been mt.de by a mule were tbe traoka of a Sabino pony, and upon Sheriff Truman asking Lares why be bad not oonfessed before bis answer wes beoause Negro Al, who was a jail companion of his, advised him not to do so. .Yiany other things can be said to show tbat tbis Jesse Pomroy, of Pima county, is eminently deserving of the title of king of assassins. His own . mother pronounced bim a murderer . since the Bge of fourteen years. That same mother counseled and advised the assault on the Doll family, counting on ber fingers the number of dollars that she and other members of her family had spent in the store. Mother and son eaob worthy of the other. In the face of all tbis overwhelming evidenoe there are those so,weak and in indifferent - different indifferent to the safety, peace aod hap piness of our lives and homes that tbey have affixed their namas to a petition tor the pardon of tbis king of assassins. The people of the Sin Pedro valley were once complimented by the Florenoe Tribune for tbeir ab'ding faith in tbe majesty and administration of tbe law. We will tek tbe Tribune to speak for us again and answer if our faith should be rewarded by releasing Jesus Lares that be may ply bis profession and teach others the art of human butch ery, or bind us witb the chain of ad additional - ditional additional taxation caused by our efforts to apprehend andproseoute bim and his pals and pupils, and for the support of officers whose doing is undone, and tbe maintenance of a tribunal whose man dates are unheeded and whose findings and decisions ere set BBide. If such is to be the oass, ere we get another dose, your correspondent would suggest tbe enactment of a law placing tbe burden of such farcical delays and miscarriages of justice where it prop-; 6rly bslocgs on tbe shoulders of senti mentalists, humane BOoieties,kind heart ed ladies, &o. In this oase tbey did not confine themselves to petitions, 'one party actually tampered witb tba witnesses for the prosecution, telling thee what should be the fate of one testifying against bis own race and blood. Kind bearted Judge Rouse fined him 850. Tbere are those still living who can magine Judge Sheldon giving sentence for a crime of this description. Yours very respectfully, Loggy. I have never bad a day's siokness in my life," said a middle-aged man tbe other day. What a comfort it would be," sighs some poor invalid, "toj be in his plaoe for a year or two." Yet half of tbe in valids we see might be j ast as healthy as he, if tbey would only take proper care of themselves, eat proper food sod digest it. It's so strange that such simple things are overlooked by those who want health. Food makes health . 1 6 makes strength and strength wards off sickness.

A week from today news will begin to pour in from St. Louis. Tbe nomi nation will probably not be made before Wednesday or Thursday as the plat form will probablj take up much time and be sound when it comes. A business man put a f r6 silver ar gument tbe other day tbat seems to tbe point. He said : "If we bad free coinage I would take S5.000 in gold and pay off off my $10,000 indebtednees by buying Mexican silver and having it coined into United States dollars. I would ! have enough of them to pay me out of debt." The silver Democrats are oousider- ably stirred up over a consultation which Mr. Harrity, the Chairman of the Democratic National Committee, had with Mr. Cleveland and Secretary Car lisle wbile he was in Washington. The oonsultation)would not have worried tbe silver men much, as tbey knew tbat all tbe parties present had been doing all they knew bow to do to down them for many months, bad it not.been for Har rity'a announcement afterward that be intended to support the ticket and platform made by tbe Chicago conven tion. Tbey don't believe that Harrity would support a silver candidate, and they fear tbat his announcement means that some trick has been oonoocted by whicb Harrity feels certain of defeating the silver men at the Convention . One of the brightest and most inter esting articles we remember to have seen in some time appears in Sports and Field tor this month, written by Mr. Cbas. H. Leckenby,'on tbe fauna and flora of Arizona. One who bas never visited Arizona oan get a quite accu rate idea of the "desert" portion of tbe Territory from this excellent article, which by the way is printed by one of the live monthlies of the east, tbe best one ia its line and yet it is not teobnical but popular and abounds in good sub stantial matter on such subjects as "Arizona A Land of Contrasts," "The Birds of the Bermuda Islands," "Traits of the Humming Bird," "A California Outing," "A Mountain Tragedy," etc etc., whiob indicates tbe ecope of tbis excellent magazine. History of a Crime.. Mammoth, April 27, 1890. To the editor op the Phoenix Her ald: At sunrise of the morning of January 5th 1805, the cry of murder echoed from hill to hill along the other wise, peaceful and quiet San Pedro val ley, in Final county ranohers; miners osttle man, from far aod near assembl ed at' tbe Doll store a, wayside station where a few grooeriea and dry goods were kept for sale. Eich new corner contemplated with blanohed lips aod fluttering heart tbe horrifying and sickening sight before him. The bodies of F M and John Doll lay upon the ground in pools of tbeir own blood, tbeir throats out, their hearts pierced by a butcher knife, and tbeir bodies perforated with bullets Tbe public road was bespattered and spott ed with human blood. So fierce and saeroileas was the assault that' the vic tims' teeth with flesh clinging to them were gouged out and found scattered upon tbe ground. In6ide tbe little store the prints and bloothes of bloody bands tbat had touched papers and many other things told tbe purpose of the monstrous deed. Upon the walls,the floor, tbe goods, tbe files of papers, the money drawer, look where you would, the bloody revolting sight was there. A more merciless, heartless, bruftal ns9assination cannot be oonceived. The Doll family consisted of F M Doll the father, Mrs. Charlotte Doll tbe wife, and John a son, Mr. and Mrs. Doll were each over sixty years of Bge, John the son was in his twentieth year. While sitting at supper on the night of January 4th, 1895, two Mexicans en tered tbe open kitchen door and con confronted - fronted confronted the family.

The tall, slim, light complexioned one of tbe two de ruons raised his pistol and exclaiming to hia companion "Quidado Partner" plaoed the muzzle close to Mrs. Doll's forehead and fired. Then turning to the left be sent a bullet through tbe body of F M Doll who still But at tbe table holding up his bands in token of surrender.

Thb Damooratio press is very justly kicking that three members of the legislature have bsen appointed to office by the Governor - and they are practi cal ly asking what the situation will bs if it should beoorne neoessary to call a special session of the legislature. In ousting Bon J. G. Hiizinger from tbe Board of Regents of tbe University, if it is he that has been removed, the most competent man that has ever been on that Board without exception, has been pulled down to make room for a 'political appoiotie. 'Mr, Hiizinger was not a politician in any sense of the word, benoe be must be deposed. The world baa often read of the fel fellow - low fellow that ''dances on' tbe grave of bis dearest friend" in that - philosophic mode that oome what will life is to be merry an.d joy to flow unceasing; but it baa never really been scandalized by such heartless brutality till Moscow gave the example a few days since on tbe coronation occasion . Tbe tbeoritic thing of that kirid is sentimental, but tbe real is barbaric brutality. The Damooratio national oommittee baa been-fijuring on gold and free silver ia the coming convention and foots np its columns as follows: Gold 381, free silver 467, doubtf ul 58. If they have mads no mistakes tbe Chicago conven convention - tion convention will deoide on tree silver with a considerable of a whoop and that whoop will drive from the party twenty twenty-one - one twenty-one etates, among them' New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Ohio and others that carry tbe heaviest voting poputation in the Union and send tbe most electors to tbe electoral college. Thb Republicans of Arizona should carry the ' Territory for Territorial offices tbis fall without an effort. The muddle 'into whicb tbe Democratic bretbern have put themselves by tbe change of Governors end the disposi disposition - tion disposition of tbe new Governor to ignore his party, even to tbe Federal authorities, looks as though the Republican party were to have all possible influences in its favor and - it should make a victori victorious - ous victorious campaign. Things could not have been fixed better for us if we bad the fixing of them ourselves. Silver has orept up to 69?s within 1 Jbe past few days and continues to go np. It bas not been by legislation, either, that this has been done; tbe legi legitimate - timate legitimate demands of business are what give anything value and euoh is tbe case now. M'ike the business of the coun country - try country what it should ba and you give sil silver - ver silver its proper' standing. We some sometimes - times sometimes get at the wrong end of matters and we oftan imagine that gold and sil silver - ver silver sliou'd mads businese; thy do not da so; there is more gold and silver id the world todsy, in circulation, Boiong the people than ever before, and yet; business is about the worst it bus ever beea. Lt us dwell upoo these facts, they are beaitty mutters for consideration.

Tbe San Fraooisoo Journal of Com Commerce - merce Commerce says editorially: "It looks as if the Japanese were going to get a strong hold oa this country, to make the United States tbe chief outlet for their products. The tea that we used to get from Japan was excellent; but Americans in Amerioa wanted more for their money, aod American shippers in Japan have lowered the ooet. Tbey bad to made a poor tea, weight it with cypeom or stone-powder, color it with Prussian Blue to "beautify it" which makes' poor tea even worse. In this way immense profits have beea mtdd at tbe expense of the American publio, and likewise at tbe expense of tbe Japanese producer, whose interest it is to have the beat tea consumed, be because - cause because people will like it, and bo want more. Good tea increases the con consumption - sumption consumption of tea, while poor tea, weight weighted - ed weighted and colored, tends to decrease the consumption. - The American shippers stand between tbe interest of American consumers end the Japanese growers The Japanese . government seems to be quite aware of of tbie, aud, at tbe World's Fair spent thousands of dollars showing America that we were not (and are not) using real Japan tea at all. We shall watch the proceedings with interest, for it will be a good thing for tbe country to use good tea, and a good thing for San FraDOiBCO, whicb, beoau6e of climate, harbor and trade facilities, is the natural tea port for tbe United States.
