HEATY ELEECES.

A Breckenridge, Mo, special to the Cansas City Times, reads as follows:
 At the public shearing at G. C, Bothwells to day, one ram three years old weighing Io2 pounds, gave a fleece of 3I pounds; another ram five years old, and weighing 15o pounds, 28 pounds; a third, six years old, 26Ia pounds; fourth, three years old, a5 pounds. A eve, aged two years and weighing Io9 pounds, the property of J. K. Johnson, gave I9 pounds of fleece. The age of all the heeces was 334 days. No effort has been made to increase the weight of fleeces dur ing the past year, owing to the de crease in the prices of wool, sheep men having to great extent lost their interest in the industry.

 MINERAL BELT RALLROAD.

A. G. Pendleton came in on Tues day from an inspection of the sur veyed route of the Mineral Belt Rail road. For the past two months his headquarters have been at Flagstaff, and with the assistance of MT. Rolph, he has closely examined the surveyed route with a view of asccrtaining where desirable changes can be made He is of the opinion that the expen- sive tunneling at Rim Rock, as at first contemplated can be avoided by run ming sthe line fifteen or twenty miles further west. A letter received very recently from Col. Eddy assures him that track laying would begin next month. MT. Pendleton returned to Flagstaff on Friday.-Globe Silver Belt.

Poiatrrs for Me Consideration ef Cah2t Asso-
 ciatiaa Msm5erS.
 The New Mexico Stock Grower gives the following pointers for sub jects of consideration at the spring meetings of the several stock associa- tions of that territory. Most of the suggestions are equally pertinent to Arizona:
 Endorse the National Cattle and Horse Grawers' association organized at St. Louis last fall.
 Provide for complete system of inspection, both local and at markets. It pays.
 Petition Congress not to repeal the present pre.emption, desert land and timber culture laws-the means avail able to secure honest title to our graz ing lands.
 Dispense with the six-snooter at round-ups and range work.
 Prohibit gambling in roundup par ties and while there is work to be performed.
 Provide for an ample supply of bulls on the range.
 See that the resolutions regarding over-stocking and range rights are strictly adhered to. Thoroughly discuss the subject of separating bulls from the herd at cer- tain seasons of the year. The cali crop will be larger.
 Have the water holes kept open next winter, same as last. This saves stock.
 Recommend to the railroad com pany the appointment of live stock agent for the territory, and avoid the confusion, delay and disappointment of last years shipping season,
 See that the committee on "invest igation of applicants for membership looks carefully into the character and standing of each applicant before 
 recommending his admission. Don't be afraid to vote against the admission of an undesirable person, as the effic- iency of the organization depend: upon the character of the member.
 Make provision for the payment ot round up captains and select good men for the positions. Endorse the action of the Territor, ial association in securing the enforce, ment ot the quarantine law. Each member should express him, self freely upon all subjects, and not sit like bump on log, and then go home and say, "two or three fellers run the darned thing"
 Pay promptly all offered rewards which have been justly earned, or else withdraw the rewards offered and leave your stock at the mercy of thieves. 
 As body, resist any unjust valua- tion of stock property for taxation purposes. The assessors meeting a, Santa Fe placed prices upon stock oi all kinds far above market value, which is illegal and unjust.
 Make faiE and equitable arrange ments whereby outfits not taking wag, ons to the round-ups will pay just proportion of the expense of feeding men and transportation of provisions, etc. This is only right and justice and the cry of stiDglness should rot be raised.
 Above all things, PAY YOUR DUES AND ASSESSMENTS PROMPTLY. This prevents embarrassment of the officers of he association from lack of funds, as the assessments arc only levied to meet actual expenses.

Col. C. C. BEAN, our delegate elect to Congress, has gone to the Ma tional Capitol. While he is antagon- istic, politically, to the administration, he occupies the same position every Congressman from Arizona has since Mccormick, and if honesty of pur- pose, and great desire to please the people of the Territory, is the step- ping-stone to success, then MT. Bean will reach the mark. We shall watch his movements with a great deal ot interest.

Wants to be Consistent With His Party.

Gov. Stover, of Albuquerque, one of the principal stockholders in the Albuquerque Journal, comes out in card in that paper, and protests against the change in the politics of the pa- per, as it IS termed independent under the management of Tom Hughes. He claims to have no knowledge of such a political change when he gave his consent to the lease. This IS all right, Governor, but don't undertake to lead the people into the belief that you knew nothing of Hughes intent. Your innocence or ignorance of the matter is little too thin, and in our opinion, your card don't help you in the Republican party as you intended 1t should.
