Stop the Steal.

The San Francisco mountains in Arizona are heavily covered with pine timber, which is being rapidly destroyed to furnish timber for the building of the Mexican Central rail- road. The land in the San Francisco mountains yet belong to the govern ment. The Atlantic & Pacific rail road has the right to cut timber for the building of its line, but no other railroad has a particle of right to the use of this timber. At the present rate of destruction, a few years will witness the complete extinction of all the pine in Arizona, and this wholesale denudation is being done for the benefit of foreign railroad company. The attention of Major Winkoop is called to this wholesale robbery. It is his business to stop this outrage. If he does not at once investigate, the blame will lie with him.-Ex.

The Value of Advertising.

It is sometimes questioned by mer- chants whether advertising pays The question will hardly bear dis cussion in the face of the following facts, rates of transient advertising being figured: The Chicago Tribune, 1t IS said, for a column. receives S26,- 900. The New York Herald receives for its lowest price column $39, ,733, and for its highest $348,000. The New York Tribune, for its lowest, S29, ,723, and for its highest SS5,649, and these papers are never at a loss for advertising to Ill their columns. Their patronage does not come from any desire to assist the respective papers, but from business men who find it profitable to advertise. The sensible business man does not con sider whether he likes the paper he advertlses in or not. It does not take long to find out by experience whether it pays him the best to ad- vertise. That it pays him he has no doubt, and raises no questions. Long experience with almost every busi- ness man who has succeeded has proved that beyond question.-Prin- ter's Circular.
