The conditition Of the cattle interest
 in Texas is by no means encouraging.
 It IS estimated that l50,000 cattle have
 drifted southward and arc now. in the
 vicinity of Devils Run, in tho Pecos country. They are so thln and weak as to scarcely be able to stand the drive bAcs to their ranges, while there Y not sufficient grass where they now are to m aintain the unusual mum Der crowded on tho range. Not.
 t'ithstanding the heavy losses that have occurred during the winter, the ranges still remain overstocked. and as the northern trail has been closed the cattlemen can only relieve the strain by turning considerable of their she stock into beet, and during the coming season it is probable that the price of this commodity will be lower than ever before known in this eoun- try, m the eastern market, As regards the price of beef Arizona will not be seriously affected, our principal mar. ket being found on the Pacific coast putin other respects the situation in Texas may have serious bearing upon our cattleinterests. The closing of the northernoutlet for their surplus will lead the Texans to direct their attention to Arizona, she being the only desirable section left open to the herds of feyer-infected districts al ali seasons ofthe year Wepredict heavy importations of Texas cattle during the coming season, and the same fate of overstOcked-ranges seems impend- ing over us, Wilcox Stockman.

Bradstreet's investigation of wage reductions in tho United States, dur ing the past two years, is in no way dlsconraging to the laboring class In those industries which have been obliged to meet strong foreign compe. titicn, wages have been considerably reduced. Tue woolen, cotton and iron mill workers bays suffered most, the reductions in their wages. since 1882, having been from IS to 30 per cent. The pay of butchers, bakers, millers, tanners. printers. agricultural imple. ment makers and some others, have not declined at all The reason for en. couragement lies in the fact that re- ductions in wages are in no case equal to the fall in prices of the articles pro- duced, which signifies that the loss has been mainly borne by capital in the shape of diminished profits. The low price of cereals and manufactured goods materially lessens the cost of living.

Last winter tue Mormon elders succeeded in securing six leagues of land between the Coral litos and Casa Grande in Chihuahua, and they are now moving their people in and taking possession.

The drift of public sentiment in most countries of Europe, in regard to monetary matters is towards bi. mrtalism. The Latin Monetary Union which fayors the coinage of silver, ex. pires at the end of the present year and the question of it's renewal is now under consideration Speculation is rife in Europe as to whether the Uni. ted States win join movement to es. tablish double standard, making sil. yer coinage approximate more closely the value of gold. The difficulty to the United States in the adoption of such standard would be the necessi. ty of retiring and recoining our exist ing stock of silver dollars, which would entail considerable loss to oug gov. ernment.

The Negales Frontier claims tbaf
 the Yaquis are the wronged party ir their present rupture with the Mexi can government. Itsays:
 The Mexican government must re
 member that its independence wa. achieved by the native races. Eidal. go, Morelos, Juarez and other grea, Meneans were of pure Indian blood.
 The Yaquis are undoubtedly the most industrious and worthy race in Sonora, in fact the bone and sinew of the state. Csjeme has the advantage of an Amercau education obtained in California; and his statement of the causes of the conflict is expressed in excellent Spanish. The Mexican off. cials have probably made mistake in their treatment of the Yaquis which the federal government will correct.
 The Yaquis have from time imme. morial collected duties on small yes. sells transporting produce on their river, and the very nams custom du- ties indicates its origin and antiquity. A single boat refused to pay three dollars, the custom duty, tho boat was eonfscated and burnt just as civilized nations do. The Mexican government represented in Sonora sent military guard to arrest Cajeme thecblef of the Yaquis.
 He was absent from home and there is abundant proof that they outraged bis wife and daughters. The presi- dent of Mexico must blush at such atrocities on tue frontier and the only remedy we can suggest is tho prorupt punishment and disgrace of those who have disgraced the Mexican uniform before the blaze of civilization.

Following Is digest of the fAsol. vent Act, now in effect in Arizonas Every insolvent debtor may, upon compliance with the provisions of this Act, be discharged from his debts and liabilities to any amount exceeding $500, by surrendering all his effects for tho benefit of his creditors.
