The True Farmer.

The true farmer does not stop to connt the Improvements on his farm;
 his reason dictates him to believe
 that he cannot lose by trying to inns
 prove Every acre of ground is cul>
 tlvated to its highest capacity, and
 estimates the profit by the amount
 of expense it takes to produce the
 same. A failure 10 realize imme- diate result does not discourage him,
 for he knows that it cannot last long
 He enjoys farming as 8 farmer shuuld; he works for profit and
 ponds for profit; he knows nothing of economy's limits, which gain to- day and loses to-morrow. His whole knowledge and mind is
 placed npon his farm, and that is why he succeeds. His farm is his capital, his workshop and his occu- patton.
 The true farmer considers the fact that it costs no more to keep ihe best than the rst,and that expense means profit in the end, and that the expense is not so tremendous as it seems. He finds his way through life, and leaves this world with res putation to be followed by his cnil, dren.
 Farming pays well, for a good farmer, that is to say a good and earnest worker, one that selects the best stock to enrich his farm and takes care of everything in & proper way. There are only about four tenths of the persons who follow this occupation, who are considered good | farmers. A man enters up"- the path of business life, choosing 2 ira C which he does not care whe her he 1 works at or the will soon be ruir ed, and will soon lose his whole cap- ital. No matter if you undertake the simplest business, your whole ] mind and knowledge must look to> wards it. A person may be worth a million, but if he neglects his busi- ness it certainly will neglect him.
 When farmer farms rightly. his 1 soi! is constantly growing better, his pastures thicker, his fields cleaner, his wife better looking and his OWE heart more tender .-Er.

lie opinion was that Cooley met a
 well deserved fate Felix, however,
 never recovered from the effects of
 his nervous fright and the deed in
 which it culminated He became
 morbid and melancholy, and soon
 after left Phoenix He is said to
 have met violent death, somewhere
 in the northern part of the Territory
 The houses which the citizens were putting up at this time, were rude adobe structures, roofed witt cottonwood limbs and ocoiilla sticks covered with mud. Board floors were unknown, as the only lumber 10 be had was hauled by mule teams from Prescott, distance of one hun dred and twenty miles, at a crsI of fifteen cents per foot, or one hundred and fifty dollars per thousand feet. Very few could afford to pay such prices, and consequently lumber was used only for window and door facings. Even adobes cost twenty dollars per thousand, and the masons charged twenty-five dollars per thousand for laying them.
 J. D. Monihon was one of the first adobe layers here. Among other buildings, he built the old Monihon corral now occupied by J. B. L. Alexander as livery stable: Moni- hon built this corral for the Starar Bros, and received one third in terest in the business in payment for his services. He afterwards bought | out Jake and Andrew Starar, and l ran the business himself with great l success.
 During the years that followed, nothing of note happened. The town kept steadily improving, new busi- ness houses were erected, and the citizens commenced to feel little more com> iortable. The farmers paid eight cents per pound for the first grain hey planted, afterwards selling all hey could raise at five cents. and inding ready markets i'll Prescott, Tucson and Mcdowell.

Nor less than one hundred and
 fifty miles of travel will be saved to
 the Southern Pacific railroad com-
 panv between Mohave and Deming
 by building their railroad from the
 Needles via Phoenix and Florence to Benson or Tucson. In addition to this saving of distance there will be at least one hundred miles more
 of rich agricultural country to pass through than there is on the present route and furthermore the road will tap one of the largest and most inn portant mining regions of Arizona; a region which but await cheap Transportation to open out numerous paying mines.
 Taking these facts into considera- tion vEe arc yet impressed with the idea that the Southern Pacific com- pany will build the road indicated, notwithstanding MT. Saulsbury's opinion to the contrary. The dis 'ance saved means saving of time Or freight of about seven or eight hours and on travel of about five hours, matter of no small conside- raiiou when railrosding comes down l to close competition in this country, 1 as il will sooner or later. The wear and taar on road he'd and rolIino stock saved in that distance is no | small matter and in itself would jus- tify 8 cut of such as indicated on a long through route such as that is from Ban Francisco to New Orleans. In fact ctthere are so many points in | favor of the route of which we speak | that ttere remains no doubt that the | road will one day be built. It would | be to the interest of the valley, how ever, to have it now.

The Chicago Tribune in regard to the land grab editorially says: "So far expressions of opinion on the part of the press of the country in regard to the claim of the Southern and CenlraI Pacific to the Texas Pa> @ihc land grant have been practical ly unanimous in opposition to it. The Boston Commercial Bulletin earns the not proud distinction of being the first to come forward and defend the title of the Huntington. Crocker syndicate to this twenty-five million dollar piece of public land. The Bulletin asks, and falsely and hipocriticaliy says ;t docs so in good faith. Where is the land grabbing in the claim of the Central Pacific? The land was given outright to the Texas Pacific, and it had right to assign it to the company which built the road 10 construct which the grant was made
 "This case has been stated so often that every one by this time should be familiar with il; but IS it is 8 new experience 10 see the bare, legal te- hnical claims of the California syndicate presented with this nak- edness by public journal, we beg 70 give the Bulletin our reasons for thinking that grab is the proper word to apply to the transaction.

had ruled long enough. They were
deaf to the uniortunates appeals for
mercy. Hence they must be hurled
from their thrones by tho knife and
by the torch. Killing under such
circumstances was not murder.
The only fault was there had not
been killing enough. Preachers,
officers, dignitaries, all who lived
upon the industry Of tho workman,
should be pat to the knife like so
many cattle. It WAS pity that tho
socialist had not done more work in
