wait for sloughs to dry out SO that
work could be completed. Often
W. in the Spring is so much delayed

and systematic ditching.

BHorHER GARDNER ON HONESTY.

BROTHER GARDNER ON HONESTY.
If should find PERFECTLY honest
man-honest in his expressions, honest
in bis dealings, sincere in his statements

lonesome object in dis aige. He would
seek in vain fur companionship. While
1 believe dat honesty am de bes' policy,
doan' look to see it practiced beyand
certain limit. When I trade mules wild
a man I kinder like to doubt his word.
want to feel dat he am keepin' still
'iaout de ring bones an spavins, an dat
de beast he says am jist turnin' fo't en-
Vars will nebber see his 21st birthday no
moar. It am monotonous to deal wild
man who am perfeckly honest. If lend
man money I want him to be honest
huff to return it, but if he kin trade me
watch worth $3 for gun worth seb.'n
l shall think none de less of him. LII
men were so sincere dat we felt oblee3ed
to believe whateber dey asserted we
should hev no use fur theories an argy-
ments. When I glib my note I expect to
pay it. When ak man how he would
like to trade his wheelbarrow fur my
dog I'm not gwine to inform him dat
Caesar am all bark an no bite, an he am
not gwine to tell me dat he borrowed
dat wheelbarrow in de night an forgot
to return it. If grocer leaves me in
charge of his sto' lie gwine to sot fur
half an hour beside box Of berrmgs an
keep my hands in my pockets all de
time. Yet, if dat same man sells me
pound of tea he expects me to try an
pass off on him half-dollar wild hole
in it.
Continer, my frens, to believe dat hon
esty am de bes' policy, but doan expect
too much of so-called honest men. You
kin trust men wild your wallet who would
borrow pitch-fork an nebber return
it. You kin lend your horse to man

/ Mocha coffee I like to wonder If he
won't pay it back in Rio. When de ole
woman buys kaliker on a guarantee she
rather hopes it will fade in de washin'.
I solemnly believe dat de world am
honest huff jist as it am. When you gin
your word stick to it if it busts de bank.
When you do job of work do it well.
When you make debt pay it. ANY
man who am mo- honest dan dat will
want you to cut penny in two to make
out his shilling; he will ring you up al
midnight to return your mouse-trap he
will take one single from your bunch
an offer you de one-hundredth part o.
what de bunch cost /; he will borrow

BRUTAL SHOOTING.
Postmaster at Benson Shot by
Saloonkeeper and Fatally
Injured.

A shooting affair took place at Ben
son Sunday morning. 1t seems that
O. C. Weenaus, the postmaster of the
village, and Jas. Fountain, a saloon
keeper, were having a little social
time together Saturday night. On Sum
day morning, however, there was some
disa greement between them, the two
had conflict of some kind which
resulted in Fountain shooting Weenaus
four times, once in the shoulder, and
three shots took affect in the head.
It is also reported that the former, not
satisfied with the result of the four
shots, took shot gun with which to
finish the job, but for some reason or
other he did not carry out his inten.
tons. The perpetrator of the deed is
under arrest, and is in danger Of being
pulled out by a mob to be tried by
lynch law, and dealt with according
to the verdict of the crowd.
Mr.. Weenans, according to last re-
ports, is not yet dead, but there is no
hope of his recovering.

WATER FOR STOCK RANCHES.

The road from Tucson to Ploml, S0- nora, which Is or the road to Port L0bos, passes thrOughla fine grazing country ID Pima co1nty. The first time the writer passed o,Eer this road, four years ago, 1t was ratfer hard road to travel on account Of fine long distances be- tween wate-. The first wHger was reach ed at Coyote w:ter holes, iG miles from Tucson; the utxt permaIent water on the road was Rt Fl Cover-y, co miles. Since that dateswater has been discover ed and wells dig at many places along this road, so th ti now, 1t may be had at from 10 to 30 miles. all along the route. Recently pro4pector dug well in the center Of the lAr-e valley which lies to tae west of the Ba5oquIva-i mountains, and found an lbuudaucs uf water at depth of twelvs feet, and now he has a ranch m the viry heart Of the so-calleI de.ert, stocked with 200 head of cattle, and possessing AS fine rauge as can be folud in the Territory. This portion. oi Pima County possesses the best ot grazing lands The valley which Is. aboat 2gx6J milss and contains au aria of l,2JO square miles, is one O: the best localities for stock ranches in Arizona, and with the deyel- opment of Watar by digging wells and piping .t out os tle mountains on the smooth mesa lands, the entire tract couli be utilized and made to pasture from 5000 to 5000 head of cattle. The soil in many places IS rich, in moderately wet seasons the Pspsgo Indians raise good crops of. corn at various points A scattering growth of iron wood. mes quite and paloverde trees abound, sui ticient for fire wood and shade for stock but not so deDse ss to interfere with the grazing, as grass grows everywhere
 We look upon this valley ss among the finest and most valuable grazing sections of P,ma county, and one that in the near future will add largely to our per mansnt wealtL and prosperity.

Political Notes.

Political malaria" IS what the New York World says ails the Ohio DenOc- racy.
 They say Mir. Dana has a Presiden- tIal bee ID his bonnet. + this Is true -et him turn the rascal out.
 The Greenback party Is now simply a hollow, vapOrish reminiscerce. There Is not enough left of 1t to even make a re- spec.able bung hole.
 Governor Knott proposes to abolish the Kentucky bureau of agriculture. He IS uiturally down on bureaus, sIdeboaris being his best holt.
 Judge Fields bid for the presidential nomination seems to have fallen rather fiat The Judge should withdraw lt and file an amended petition.
 John Kelley and Sam Tilden are now posing before the political public as the great original Slamese twins As John is on the blind side of Sam, there ls a possibility that Sam will lose an ear be- fore the combination disbands.
 The outside Democratic papers are beginning to speak of the result in Ohio as a matter of little or no consequence. This IS significant, as reminding us Jt the youth who didn't want his supper.
 In tine democratic procession Mir. TIl- den properly has the precedence of Gen. Hancock. Mr. Tilden cut his wisdom teeth in 1876, while Gen. Hancock did not enjoy that distinction til four years later.
 Mir. Hendricks has returned from Sar- atoga, and IS now taking his usual Sep tember course of curtain lectures. Mir Hendricks toe does not trouble him any longer; fl anything ails him, it must be the ear ache.
 The result in Ohio will not Darticu- larly dishearten the democratic party l. has been spanked and sent Co bed without its supper SO often that l. has come to regard that preceeiing 2 as a matter of course.

D, like result 's obtained, that is. the figures are the same and succeed each other in similar way. This led Co a careful studying of these figures, and he soon found that preceded by the dec1mGl point they are the decimal equivalent Cf l-1. He found, too, that this is the repetend of repeating decimal His thoughts were In this way turned to the fraction IT., and he performed mentally the operation of reducing its square, l-49 to repeating decimal having repetend of 42 places six times as many as that of l-7. Then he took the cube of IT. equal to 1-343, and performed the prodigiOus feat of re- turnln thIn into a repeating decimal whose repetend has 249 figures. All this.

TIE fine crop of sorghum cane the Department of agriculture had on the Smithsonian ground has been removed by a storm and now lies as flat as though 8 roller had passed over 1t. This will render the cane worthless for sugar pur- poses, because, as it Is stated, when the cane Is broken down the crystalizable sugar ID the juice reverts to the un- crystalized form. This IS most un- fortunate, as the department expected much from experiments to be made.
