GIVE Us THE SILVER DoLLAR.-There
is no mystery in the silver question-it is
as simple and plain as A, B, G. The
amount of pure silver and pure gold that
adjust ed the dollar in the two metals, was
fixed by trial and comparison by the old
statesmen. All the silver advocates ask
is that Congress, which demonetized sill
yer in 1873 shall put it where it was at
that day, and coin the silver dollar as it
was coined in that day and had been for
twenty years previous. 1t was worth at
that day, according to DIR. Linderman's
book and as recited in Mr. Bayard's
speech 103 cents in gold, and whenever
the silver dollar is put forth as legal ten
der with the impress and sanction of the
government it will Re worth as much as
gold dollar of the present weight and
standard.

PROSTITUTION OF TEE PREss.-,J en-
hns' old Commercial adopted the most
mischicvous of all the modes for stabbing
the reputation of men, and blasting the
prospects of party candidates. 1t fastens
itself upon one or two able and influen-
tial members of the party, and lauds
them to "the Skies" and the little circles
that are tickled by the flattering remarks,
run around and exhibit the "puffs J" and
think they have made good impress
sion; and all they have to do in case some
one is nominated whom they do not like,
is to get this dirty machine to denounce
that candidate as has been done at every
election. To give it weight against the
Democratic candidates it was dubbed a
"Bayard organ" by the Republican and
other Radical sheets. And now its lac
keys use Senator Bayard's name, and its
. hypocritical praise of the able Senator
to cover and give weight to its attacks
upon the Democratic candidates when the
nominations are made, or to influence
voters in favor of favorite. 1t has thus
been used to cut and stab some of the
most popular Democrats in the State
Whether this was the intention of the
men who got out the charter of the Sian
derous sheet and were paid in stock ant
promises of puffs and support and othel
modes, we do not know butit has served
only to injure the prospects Of any wht
put their cause in its hands. And now i
is being used in this way, to Senator
Bayard's injury and to the injury of tn,
Democratic party. The Levy Court il

OLIVE CULTURE.-As some of the farmers of the mild and salubrious valley of the Salinas are directing their attention 10 the culture of the olive, it may be interesting to them, at least, to know something in regard to the amount of oil manufactured from the olive (Olea Europea), and imported into the United States during the year ending June 30, 1877, independent of the olive pickled and brought into tie Amc,ican market. A half mil lion dollars was s.nt out of the United Sia'es 10 Italy, Spai., France and Greccc ill exchange for oil during he year, upon which was pad q duty of S23I,776.75 Here in \ izona the olive, it Is thought, c-m be made a sIfe and profitable business, by persons wlio are familiar with its culture. that the climate is well adAitcd to its successful growth, and that it can be made to flourish equally well as 1t dors in those ciuatries where it is now extensively cultivated, Lor dering on the Mediterranean. The olive WIS first found wild in the climatic zone of the Himalaya mountains, the highest in the world, and is supposed to have been trans ported in some former age from there to Europe. The olive trade is much larger than is generally sup posed and Is much more lucrative to those who cultivate the soil than all most any other industry. Great Britain imports annually fifty mil lion gallons of oil. IL is only triiing question Of time when Arizona will ship her thousands upon thousands of gallons of the pure fresh article as Salt River is certainly destined to bec1me the olive zone of the Pacific.

The desert of Colorado, between Cairsa creek and Fort Yuma can be made productive and very valua- ble by making plantations of the date palm. This tree not only does not require much water, but water is prejudicial to it, and the climate of the Colorado desert is singu'arly like tha- of some of the best date produc- ing districts in Egypt. All the valleys of Southern Ar izona, yielding large per cent age of saccharine matter. The facts have been fully settled by extensive experiments during the past three or four years. The only thing to hazard the profitable growth of sugar here on a large scale, is the alkalie char acter of much of the soil in the valley of Gill and Salt Rivers. as well as of their waters. This alkali-sola and potash-is taken up by the cane expressed by the juce and remains with the sugar on boiling down, giv- ing the sugar a salty flavor. We can offer few suggestions for neu- tralizing this effect. Calcined sul. plate of lime applied to the soil may combine the suits of potash and soda into sulphates not absorbed by the cane, leaving the lime free to form other combinations. Or, the alkalinity of the canejuice may be neutralized by adding a proper prop. portion of acid, say sulphuric, deter. mined by experiment. If all else fails, the juice can be distilled into a prime article of Jamaica or Santa Cruz rum, and its molasses into New England or Medford; no alkali leave: the still. But we believe that sugar will yet form staple product of these valleys.
