Girls in Business.

We commend to all girls who wish
or expect to engage in any' lfsupport-
ing occupation, especially where they
may come into competition with men.
the following extract frcm Elizabeth
Stuart Phelps article, entitled "Sup.
porting Herself" in the May ST..
NICHOLAS:
"But, girls, if you don't mean to
make thorough business of the occu-
patton you have chosen, never, never,
never begin to be occupied at all.
Half.fnished work will do for amateurs
but it will never answer for professions
ais. The bracket you were sewing
for New Years present can hang a
little crooked on its screws, and you
will be forgiven for the loves sake
found therein by the dear heart to
which you offer it: but the trinket
carved for sale in the Sorrento rooms
must be cut as true as a rose.leaf.
You can be little shaky as to your
German declensions in the Schiller
Club, which you join SO enthusiastic-
ally after leaving school, and no great
harm ever come of it; but teach
Schiller for living, and for every da-
tive case forgotten you are so much
money out of pocket.
"People who pay for thing demand
thorough workmanship or none. To
offer incomplete work for complete
market price, is to be either cheat or
beggar. The terrible grinding laws
of supply and demand, pay and re-
ceive, give and get, give no quarter
to shilly>shally labor. The excellence
of your intentions is nothing to the
point. The stress of your poverty has
not the slightest connection with the
case. An editor will never pay you
for your poem because you wish to
help your mother. No customer will
buy her best bonnet or her wheat flour
Of you because you are unable to pay
your house rent. When you have
entered the world Of trade, you have
entered a world where tenderness and
charity and personal interests are for
eign relations. Not for friendships
sake nor 'for PHYS sake, nor for
chivalry's sake runs the great rallying
cry of this great world-but only for
value received
at is with sorrow and shame, but
yet with hope and courage, that l
write it-there is reason for the ex-
tensive complaint made by men, that
women do not work thoroughly. lam
afraid that, till time and trouble shall
have taught them better, they will not.
Is it because they havenot been trained
Is it because they expect to be mar
ried? That it is not in the least be-
cause they can not, we know for we
know that some of the most mag
nifcently accurate work in the world
has been done by women"

A BARBAROUs DEED.

Fred Glover, of Prescott, on the 18th ult., knocked down, kicked and stamped the life out of a consumptive, weak and unotfending woman named Nellie Coyle, alias Jennie Clark, in the presence of number of men who could and should have saved her life. After knocking her down, he jumped on her prostrate form, remarking: "Now G. d--n you, let's see you faint and do it pretty" Glover's only cause of displeasure was the woman's refusal to give him hundred dollars. Glover is in jail. The offence is with out parallel in the criminal annals of Arizona. Miss Coyle was twenty six years of age, native of Glenwood, California, in which state, at Santa Cruz, her mother, brothers and sisters reside. Her murderer was also from California; but has been a resident oi Prescott for six or seven years. He was an opium fend and had indulged in the use of the drug to such an ex' tent as to unfit him for any useful oc' cupation and had been supported by his victim for two years.

NEW MEXICAN POLITICS.

The Republican party of our sister territory, New Mexico, held their con- vention in Santa Fe and agreed to disagree, and consequently the two factions of the hitherto happy family occupy separate lodgings and are practically two parties, although each affirmed their unalterable faith in the doctrines of "the grand old party" as enunciated in the national platform of June last. As there are two nomi- nees, Col. Rynerson and Judge Prince, as candidates for delegates to Congress in opposition to a united Democracy, thelr defeat is not only foretold, but recorded. The last aggregate vote of the Territory was 2S,438. Luna, the Republican candidate, was counted in by 1886 majority over Manzanares, the Democratic candidate. The latter, contesting, was seated on the ground of illegal votes counted for Luna. This shows the parties so evenly bal. anced that dissention in the ranks of either gives the victory to the other party. The present disagl cement is not trivial, but is of such nature as to preclude the possibility of an ad- justment satisfactory to the rank and file of the party, who regard that an insurmountable principle is involved which the Prince followers can not grant without conceding the absence of integrity in their members of the last legislature who voted for the cap itol and penitentiary bills which they claim became laws, and which the Rynerson party stigmitize as swim dles upon the taxpayers of the Terri tory. Col. Rynerson, in accepting the nomination, said the debt in- cured in the passage Of the peniten- tiary and capitol bills increased the liabilities of the Territory of New Mexico about $500,000-and very prop. erly denounced those of the members of the legislature who voted for it.

Ben Butler has turned himself loose; is talking himself hoarse all over the country, It is reported that on the 2d he talked to 10000 people Tn De- troit, Michigan, but as to the number of his audience it is probably a cam paign lie. Ben, however, has the gift of gab and has the power to attract. His being the hero of Fort Fisher also excites curiosity to see and hear him. The lately returned Arctic explorers, who dined upon their deceased ship mates, would most likely discount Butler in power of attraction. The staid and reflective are not drawn by his magnet, they are as easily satisfied with the show as was General Edmund Pendleton Gaines, at New Orleans, who after paying his quarter, and sec ing the trunk of the elephant over the top of the canvas, expressed himself satisfied and returned to his quarters to fix in his minds eye the size and thickness of the cuticle of the hippo potamus, the central figure of the show, which some censorious wretch had classed Butler as resembling, and so far as. he is concerned after the election all that will be requisite for his managers to do will be to take down and fold the canvas.

The former town of Smlthville has been incorporated under the name of Pima. An election was held and John Taylor elected mayor, and Alexander Wilkins, marshal. The city council consists of four members: Reuben Alerd, Henry Norton, and two others whose names our informant could not recollect. In the county election the estimated vote at the Pima precinct alone will be about 200. The entire Mormon vote of the county is also es- timated as aggregating between 400 and 800.

The gush in national politics is be- ginning to be understood by the rank and file of the respective parties. The intelligent voter, however strong a partisan, weighs statements and takes them for what they are worth. Our 3OO,OOO schoolmasters have had their effect in preparing American adults to read and digest the contents of the 12,OO0 newspapers printed and circu- lated in the United States. Stump speakers have had their day and create but a ripple in politics. Their state ments and advice from the forum are as evanescent as a dream. Newspa' pers form public opinion and conse- quently rule the world.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE FIVE STOCK As'
 S0ClATlON

We take the following from the Citizens report of the proceedings of the Arizona Live Stock Ranchmens Association, at their regular monthly meeting held in Tucson on Monday last:
 Letters were read by the secretary from cattlemen in various parts of the Territory, complaining that imported Texas cattle are threatening all their herds, giving instances of deaths aris- ing. from their introduction.
 H. c. Hooker gave data obtained from his neighbors in the Sulphur Spring Valley, from which itappeared that D. B. Rogers had brought 300 head of Texas cattle to this Territory and had turned 15O head loose among the herd of Thomas Steele, who has 1000 head. Fifty of his Arizona cat. tie became diseased from the contact and died. Fifty of the Texas cattle ran with Geo. Frisk's heard of 300, and up to August 5lst eleven of his cattle had died and two more were not expected to live. T. T. Hunter had lost about the same number. MT. Dyam received few Texas cattle in his heard of 150 head and ten died All the deaths were among the Arizona cattle, willie the Texas cattle retained | good health. These stockmen and others had requested Mr. Hooker to bring the matter before the Associa. tion. 'S
 The Association authorized the ex. ecutive committee to employ an at torney and to take all other necessary steps to have the Territorial authori. ties and those of the several counties declare Texas cattle public nuisance under the common law and to prohib' it their further importation; also tc require those already here to be put and kept under strict quarantine al the expense of their owners.
 w. l.. Vail, H. c. Hooker and Koch ester Ford were appointed commission CTS to represent the Arizona Live Stocl Association at the stock meeting of th' National Association to be held in St Louis, beginning November 17th.

A SUGGESTION.

Would it not be pertinent for the respective political conventions, soon to convene, to give expression of opin- ion in regard to the contracting ofthe White Mountain Indian reserva- tion so as to exclude the Deer Creek coal fields, the town of McMillen, the Champion mill and the Tweed copper mining district. While the proposed segregation could not possibly result in injury to any of the several tribes of Indians residents thereof, it would, on account of the coal and valuable deposits of silver and copper, and the already great outlay of money in their development, be of almost incalcula' ble benefit to the whites.

It is impossible to judge how much significance is to be attached to the Prohibition movement this year, but it seems to be greater than in any former Presidential campaign, and es- pecially in some of the Middle and Western States, where prohibition has lately been made part of the practi- cal politics of the day. In Iowa, Kan sas, Illinois and Ohio, St. John and Daniel seem destined to be a very disturbing element" A disturbing element in politics is anything which draws votes from the old parties. It is of no consequence whether the old parties have any principles left which are worth voting for. In such case the disturbance becomes all the more disturbing, because it is likely to reach and affect greater number of voters than usual. Governor St. John was not far wrong when he said that "there are more political parties in the field than there are political issues"

A frightful holocaust occurred on the Greeley, Salt Lake & Pacific R. R. near Greeley, Colo., on the night of the 18th ultimo. A bunk car belong ing to the Anglo-American Circus, in which there were seventy of the em- ployes, caught fire from the explosion of a gasoline torch, and the fire was quickly communicated to several bar rels of gasoline, enveloping the car with its human freight. The train, which was in motion at the time tue explosion occurred, was stopped as quickly as possible, but not before ten of the inmates of the burning car had been roasted alive. Seven others who were burned, and injured by jumping from the car, will probably die. Sev- eral others were more or less hurt.
 Both circus employees and railroad men blame the carelessneSs of the cir GUS management with the accident. The men who occupied the car say they demonstrated against the carry. ing of the gasoline in the car at all, but their protestation were not needed Then fault is found with lighting the car with a common torch, as such a light is dangerous at any time. As the Union Pacific officials had nothing to do with the train except to take il over the road, they are in no way re sponsible for the accident. The en tire blame rests with those who put the gasoline in the car.

The act of 1883 fixing the appor- tionment for members of the legisla- tive assembly, is regarded by some as ambiguous. It says-referring to thls district, in which we are interested that Cochise county shall elect one member of the council jointly with the counties of Graham, Gila, Pinal and Pima. It is contended that had it said the counties of Cochise, Gra- ham, Gila, Pinal and Pima shall elect one member of the council jointly, it would have left no doubt as to tie standing of the respective counties named under the law. Some contend that Cochise has the naming of the candidate, and that Graham, Gila, Pinal and Pima are simply adjuncts, and have no further power than to express by their votes at the general election a preference of candidates named by Cochise county. Whether the law is susceptible of that inter- pretation we leave it for others to say. Taking it for granted that the five counties are equal, under the law, in what manner are their respective preferences in the selection of candi- dates to be voted for to be made known? It is time political managers had de- termined the question.

The Saint Louis Republican of the 31st ult. seems to set at rest all doubts that the notorious Bender family of Cherry Vale, Kansas, were killed shortly after the discovery of the mur- der of Dr. York. They were pursued into the Indian Territory on the banks of Grand river where they were killed and buried. It is a we'll ascertained fact that the Renders killed nine per. sons and buried them in their garden There were four of the Bender family and all killed at the same time.

Maud s. is now ten years old, and is in the full enjoyment of her splendid powers. There is nothing to indicate failure if she should start, either against time or her brave little junior Jay-eye-see. She has trotted to the half-mile pole in 1:O2, and if properly prepared there is no doubt of her ca pacity, under the most favorable con- ditions of weather and track, to finish the last half-mile within two seconds as fast as the first. This would make the full mile 2:06. She is now in training and before many weeks will be given trial over the Hartford track to beat her own record tf 1;o?1.

The Detroit Free Press has this to say of Green B. Raum, President of the Arizona NJ. B. R. R. construction company:
 "Green 5. Raum is particularly active in the campaign, and thus far few people have guessed the reasofl. You will remember that year ago last winter he was positive candidate for United States Senator along with Gov. Cullom and Gen. Dick Oglesby. It is known that dicker was made at the Leland Hotel in Springfield where- by Raum dropped out of the race, even while maintaining he was still a candi- date. We'll, the agreement was about like thls: If Logan got first or second place on the national ticket, Cullom promised to help Raum to the Senate. Logan has got there. Logan's affairs are in the hands of the National Com mittee. Raum is an agent of the com- mittee, saponically speaking. Hence, if Logan is elected, the National Com. mittee will ask hlm to reward Raum with votes in the Illinois Legislature and, if Cullom keeps his promise, you will at once observe that Raum stands in rather favored position. You may safely bet your last dollar that Green B. Raum never turns his hand over unless he is certain some benefit will accrue to the Raum family" .
