Whereap, We believe tnat sucn re repudiation - pudiation repudiation would, under the circum circumstances, - stances, circumstances, work greBt wrong and hardship to the holders of euoh bonds, and at tbe same time most seriously ufiVct the credit and standing of our people for honesSy and fair dealing', ond bring us into disrepute: Wherefore, we must etrongly urge upon your most Honorable bodies the propriety aad justice of passing euob .curative and remedial legislation as will protect the holders of ail bonds issued under authority of Acts of the Legisla Legislative - tive Legislative Assembly, the validity of which bus heretofore been acknowledged, and that you so further lfgieltte cs to protect ell innocent parties having entered into contracts resulting from induoemen ts offered by our Territorial Legislation, and relieve tbe people cf the Territory fr&m tbe d:'6aetrcus tffecte that must necessarily follow ny repudiKtion cf good faitb oa the part of the Territory; aod that ycu mey so further legislate as to validate all Acts of tbe Legislative Assembly cf tbe Territory which have held out inducements for the invest investment - ment investment of liirge sums of money in enter enter-prizas - prizas enter-prizas directly contributing to tbe de de-velopeaieDt - velopeaieDt de-velopeaieDt and growth of tbe Territory, and thus relieve the honest people of the Territory from tbe disastrous effects that must necesssri.'y follow any viola violation - tion violation or good faUh on the part of our people. Resolved, That our Delegate to Con Congress - gress Congress be, and he i.shereby instructed,

"What, in your opinion, should be the polioy of tbe Republicans of the Terri Territory - tory Territory under the ciroumstanoes?" "I think the poiicy of the Republicans of this Territory should be to acoept the situation acd make the very best fight we can to keep tbe Territory in the Republican column. By doing this we will Btacd a much better chance for Statehood, bspeoialiy since it is morally certain that the next President and tbe next Congress will be Republican. As I said before, Statehood is far more im important - portant important to us than anything else. With Statehood we can choose our own offi officers - cers officers and adopt, such international poli policies - cies policies as we dasire. With protection and reciprocity our cattle and sheep indus industries - tries industries will again flourish, confidence will hi restored aod raooey will coins here to develop our deserts and mines.

the silver Demcorata that his only de desire - sire desire hereafter was '"to be a private in the party ranks," the belief is generally held in the east that he is willing; to ao ao-oept - oept ao-oept the Demooratio nomination again, even upon a silver platform. This isn't complimentary to Mr. Cleveland, but it is the faot all the same. The Star intimates that Col. Zabris Zabris-kie - kie Zabris-kie announces that he was about per persuaded - suaded persuaded to" walk out of tbe St. Louis convention with the bolters. If that was true there were eleven sound, stal stalwart - wart stalwart Arizona Republicans there who were not in tbe least danger from such influences. They were Republicans who believed in making their party what it should be rather than to exper experiment - iment experiment with the unknown and untried. That the Deufocratio party is.es ever, ready to do anything that will give it a obanoe to win is shown by the alacrity ot democrats to oonsider even the wild wildest - est wildest sort of a proposition which promises to gain Populists and silver Republican votes. One of these propositions which has been seriously accepted by some Democrats and the carrying out of which may be attempted tit the Chicago convention, is that a Democrat be nom nominated - inated nominated for President and a Populist for Vice-President, and that a resolution

endorsing Senator Teller for Secretary of the Treasurer be adopted by thB Con Convention. - vention. Convention. And those men actually think that the voters of this country can be bamboozled by such a crazy quilt sort of an arrangement as this. According to the .coccecscs of opinion", without regard to party poli politics, - tics, politics, the dignity and effect of Sanator Teller's bolt from the St. Louis oonven tion baa been greatly lessened by the persistent efforts of the Populists to puBh Mr. Teller forward as a candidate for the Democratic nomination. Of course those who know Senator Teller's devotion to principle, do not for a moment believe that be is taking any hand in this business, bnt there oan be no doubt that in giving advance notice of his intention to do jaet what be did he put it in the power of men less bigb minded to make use of him as a tcoi to attempt to carry out oertaiu schemes of their own, nor that those men are taking advantage of their opportunity. Thr re isn't the slighteet probability that ,tue Democrats will nominate Senator Teller for President, and he would increase the respect with which be is generally regarded if be would put an end fo (he game by forbid ling tb& use of his name before that convantion.
