The M. E. Church of the TJnitid States celebrates iU centennial this year. It became a Separate ehurch organization in December, 1784, by action ( f a conference convened at Baltimore at !h.e time mentioned, hen the organization was named and began an independent career. Hfav'T political woih is going on just now in Ohio. Both parties are m Icing a trimeidous struggle: the Democracy knowing full well tin t if the Slate is lost this time their cause will have but poor show ing in Nove mber, for on the heels ol Republican suecess in Ve.mont and Maine, the boom fi.r Blaine would be henceforth irresistible. K. L. Long the Republican can didate for Supenntendent of Public Instruction is a genlleman well known here, having for n seiiss of terms bei n prim-ipal of our public tchcol. lie is a young man of educa tion and ability, weil up in the mod ern methods of education and wirhal a genial gentleman wbo would be au honor to the position and a pleasant officer. . A WW&Vgood judgement and of fair success in the struggles of Hie, the educational interests of the Territory could not be pat into b; tier hands. Mr. Brent KliiKi-AND.the Repub lican nominee for Treasurer of Mar icopa county, is a gentlemen too wel' known to need anj thing of special coniniidntion at our hands. His unequalled business qualifica tions, his sterling iutegiily.lns pleas ant social qualities and his gentle ruauly dignity art all known to the people of oar town atd county gen erally and it is further known that Maricopa county will go a long way before she will find a more desirable or competent man to attend to her finances than the gentleman of whom we speak. Let him te remembered at the polls. There can be nothing lost In voting for hira. Tombstone seems to have r-apiur-. e 1 the hearts 01 the various delega tions that were there in attendance ou the Republican convention. Our own delegation is loud in praise of the treatment which they received and ot the liberality of Tombstone Republicans. Carriages both ways between Tombstone and the railroad, nine miles, lodging and meals were provided entirely free to all delega tions thiU put in an appearance. Moreover, the" conv-ntion hall was very handsomely decorated and flowets in profusion hud been pro vided, for which it had been reces sary to send tu San Francisco. Such liberality on the part of the Repub licans of that eud of the Territory will not soon Ve forgotten at.d we carnelly hope will be remembered in future conventions that may meet elsewhere in the Territory. Blaitje explained his marriage in a straight forward aud mauly man ner that cballcngts the admiration of every man wfio read3 his letter aod aDswer in court, be he Demo crat or Republican. And, what is more, the very fast of the outrageous Ecandal of the t'cntinel Co., and its prompt denial and absolute vindi cation by Blaine, is going to have its kfluence against the Indiana Democracy in particular, and the paity in geneial, to some extent, when it comes to the polls m No vc mber. The American people of nil parties are tot yet dead to the liberties whieli are given to every Uian to urjry in this our free land, and one if those liberties is the right of immunity from the t lander of poison tongue, and the luw and .the people will vindicate Blaine and Jhow the world that ot least one privilege of nn American citizen be. maintained if there is Ia in our courts ai d people to -si V.4". Our would be Democratic contem porary over the w.iy refers with gn at gusto to lMma as a "Uepub'i chii" county and to the county's in .ichtcrinesg as an evidence of the re sults of Republican rn'e, and slI tempts to make capital nut of the t'nct tliat I'ima has a gr. ater debt jvtr it than Maricopa, therefore the Democratic manipulation or affairs in Maricopa is pnr excellence and a model for benighted Hi publicans to loolt upon with the proper am-. unt of awe and wondering. " If Maiicopa ones lrss it is because of a Supei vi -rr on 'he Board who wou'd not -ubinit to the countj's being robbed, and whom the courthouse ring have been cursing long ami loui a'mrst ever since he has held the position of Supervisor and whom they would cot nominate at their late county convention because lhe could not use him. But laying aside that matter corns pletely, we beg leave to call the at tenlionofthe rirg apologist to the fact that though Pima county's d lit is larger her rate of t-isation i smaller than in M iricopa, anl con sequently co Individual property holder of that county Is ei tlrely e'eaned out of the profits of his bus ioess. Yes, we would respectfully call attention to Pima county finances and to her rate of taxation as compared with that of Maricopa countv. Our would he Democratic cotem- porary lias put on its war paint brandishes its little ax furiously, dances on one leg, turns contoited MimmerfHul'.s, whoops and yells in fumlinh rage, r.nd tays "the Repub licans have lbrown down the gaunt let.'' and it is going to annihilate the whole party. Keep on'vour shirt, neighbor, it's not very cir-an any way, and the nether gaimeiits might have holes in tin m. 'The Republicans have thrown d wn the gauntlet." Indeed? Does our fast and furious seeker for Dem ocratic favor remember that the par ti bbs of the party it is trying to im pose itself upon dug up and tried to besmirch the character of the d aJ Uarfieid at lis ratification meeting in 3xy stooped, hyena like, to des ecrate the grave of as pure a man as ever breathed the free air of Amer ica? Does it not not know that it invites n examination of the record of the party every time it publishes its county platform? Does it not know the record can not be inyesti-g- ted without opening np a charnel house that we do not believe the public is much interested in ? But when a party ,as iu the case of "a mnn, is dared to do a thing, it is likely to be done, even though it should of fend the nostrils of those who make the banter. It lookB just a little in consistent that the "dare" should be thrown out and such an awful howl of despair and frenzy raised iu the party by its attempted driver who seek to stir np old and buried bit ternesses to make itself "solid" with the party to which it sold itself. An editor is a fellow that listens patiently to the woes and troubles, the c mplaints and advice of a whole community listens quietly, says "yes," and continues to think as he pleases and to conduct- his pa per as he pleases. And yet he will be condemned by individuals who have, unasked, unburdened their private troubles and opinions to him, because he didn't insult them by . telling them just what he really thougnt of them, or tickle their vanity by taking up their petty affaire as subjects for leng edi'erial and vituperous vindi cation of private squabbles and per sonal heartburnings. The editor has to dtal wi'h matters of public inter- j est, of public affairs, and concerning the public welfare, and Deeds ODly to touch upon Individuals as they jo some way connect themselves with public affairs- Sometimes i is not only in his province but is his duty to condemn, and again it his duty to applaud. He sees the weaknesres and foibles the trickery and egotism displayed in all their peculiar colors, daily, almost hourly, aud what a sensation he would create if he were to say what he knows to bo facts. What volumes lie could write of the inner life of men and of society. He has strong convictions cannot avoid liavingtliem and probably in ninety nine cases in a hundred understands the secret and hidden motives of men in a way that would startle them did they suspect that his per ceptive faculties are as active as his' exterior is calm and apparently quiescent. A dozen little odds and ends of actions, motives and points coming Itora as many different sources may be brought up and flash at a v-'urd or the uiiiid of the natipnt - listener he draws his instant con clusion, he sees the whole thing clearly but he remains as impassive as though his brain were Innocent of a single thought. He hears one thing, thinks of another, sas "yes" because he will not say anything else, and stores up his points, hun dreds of ihem, which iu the usual course of events well never be uns covered. vi:K-stxjirrivi.xt:st. There are many people who are always looking out fersleights, they cannot carry on the daily intercourse of the family without some offense is Imagined II they meet an ac quaintance on the street who haps pens to be pre-ccenpied with biisi uess they attribute his abstraction to some mood p' rsonal to them selves, and take umbrage according' ly. A fit of indigestion makes them sec impertinence in every one they come in contact with. Innocent persons who never dreamed of giv ing offense, are astonished to find some unfortunate word or monies lary taciturnity misiakea for an in sult. To say the least the habit is unfortunate. There are people in this world who have something (o do beside talking, joking and com ulimeuting. There are persons who gut too weary to answer foolish q-jestions repeated again and again. There are persons who now and then appreciate the privilege of a moment's thought or silence, and it is not needful for ever sensitive per sons to construe weariness and care and labor into indifference, unkind ness or contempt. It is lar wiser to take the more charitable view of our fellow-beings aud not suppose a sleight is intended unless the sh-ighi is open and direct. After all, too ifc takes its hues iu a great degree f rom the co'flr of our mind. If we are frank and generous, the world treats us kindly. If, on the contra ry, we are suspicious, meu learn to be cold aud cautious toward us Ex, TIIK AJJIXO.NA t:XAI,. The greatest ehteipnsc ever un dertaken in Arizona is now ap. preaching completion without oss tentation, but with persistent energy and the expenditure of 'upwards of a half million collars. The Arizona Canal Company, within twenty-two months, have cut a channel twenty six feet wide ot the bottom, with bai.ks seven and a half feet deep with a slope oui wards of one anil a halffer-tto one foot iu depth, and forty miles in length, whereby the waters of the Salt River may re conducted around the outside of this valley and emptied iuto the Agua Friu, and this gigantic unuertaking is now nearly completed, so quietly that our people seem to fail to real ize the magnitude V)f the great work. The work has never stoppp.d nor flagged siice it was commenced. Hur.diede of men and mules have been employed and many curloads of powrier have been used in the construction. But while this work in itself is very great, far beyond the comprehension of any who have not studied it, yet the great effect it will have upon our beautiful valley cannot well be over estimated. The canal will furnislr water to reclaim upwards cf one hundred thousand acres of laud ami water power to drive enough mills and factories to create a ci'y by its holders, and water for this city, under a pressure of 130 feet for domestic, municipal, and fire purposes. It is not too much to say that it will entirely revolutionize the state of things now existing kere. This city aud the vadey on this side of the river will be guaranteed the permanent use of the waters of Sail River, and the guarantee is sufficient to insure the most rapid development of the whole valley ; ihe construction of a branch railroad for au outlet, and the erection of reduction works for all kinds of ores; the building of extensive wine cellars, beer vaults, pork packing establishments, fruit canneries, aud sugar mills. The soil and climate will insure prosper ity and all that follows in the wake of prosperity to a population of fifty thousand people. We pre dict that this will he the great city of the extreme southwest, and this prediction is supported by the facts. There is no other r' .oe possessing equal advantages of geographical location uud natural resources in the whole country west of the Mis souri river. . Dr. Price's Special Flavoring Ex tracts have grown rapidly in popu lar favor, as it is known that they are produced by extraction from the fruit carefully selected, not made up with chemical poisons. Each flavor is from the true fruit and aromalics. The flavor they impart TeTTBakep, cream?, etc., is truly delicious. A.ny one can prove them br a trial. TELEGRAPHIC- NAUItOW ESCAPE OP HENDRICKS.

Sept. 18 Walter Evans, ihe Ci-mmissioiu-r ot internal revenue, h ft this evening for A short visit to Kentucky . His name was to-day added to the list of those likely to succeed Foiger. Informa tion was received here to-day that Morton, minister to France, who intended to have sailed for New- York on Tuesday of' last week, has deferred bis departure two weeks. This seems to effectually dispose of the report that he was coming home to assume the duties of Secretary of the Treasury, ns that office wili have to be filled within seven davs. It is said by Moi ton's friends that he obtuimd a leave of absence to come to this country before the death of Secretary Fotger occurred, and th-st his original in'ention was to have started a few days before that event and had no connection with the vacancy in the cabinet. Morton's object in comiug homo just at this time Is said to be to attend to some private business in New York. It is slated positively that Gen. Sharpe will not accept the treasury port folio.
