TIE great American Congress has al last found foeman worthy of its steel iu the young but strong and sinewy pro- dact of the factory bogus-butter.

THAT is cheerful hearing for the frontier settlers, certainly, and m the circumstances it IS not 70 be wondered a! that they demand the organization Of a couple of cowboy regiments to deal with the Apsches. The settlers GTe eu- tItied to protection. The Army has failed to give it to them. Another long and costly campaign has nothing to show for it but the scattered graves of murdered and uuavenged American cIt- izens. The cowboys couli not do worse than this, and they might easily do much better.-N. Y. Tribune.

 Only short time ago the same flexi. ble source of opinion denounced the county courts to the best of it's ability. and later on conceived the wisdom of a brilliant acquIescence in any such Judgment Tn regard thereto Hs the su- preme court might choose to arrive at. Of the constitutionality Q; .the meas ure there are only two sides. and only two guesses as to the result.

The Homo Rule Bfll.

NEW YORK; May s.-Justin McCar,y cables from London to the Herald: My forecast is this: Glads.one's measure will not pass this session, will not pass any session in its present shape, but all the same Gladstone has already carried home rule. No Parliament will ever again attempt to carry any imperial busi- ness until it has settled the home-rule question. Few indeed are the men who would now venture to get up in any pubic meeting and say they are opposed to all manner of home rule, and l don't believe it necessary to discuss the ques- tion.,

The EPITAPH has heretofore refrs

The EPITAPH has heretofore refrai
 from passing harsh criticism upon CI
 ernor Zulick, believing that many of
 charges made against him were for ui- poses other than the public good. In the face of his recent underhand action, in springing a number of trumped up charges against the insane asylum con- missioners, without giving them time to appear in their defense, we can, however, no longer refrain from expressing our sincere belief that Zulick's appointment was grave mistake and that his con- hrmation would be disaster to the Ter ritory. These gentlemen-Messrs. Lin coln, Stewart and Hatch-are honorable and much respected men. The notifca- tion to them to appear at Prescott on the 6th-to-day-is dated April 2o,h. It was, however, only received by the Pres. colt commissioner on the Ist, and by Mir. Stewart on the 4th, thus giving him no time to reach Prescott. It is evident that there is concocted scheme to re- place these gentlemen by three hungry Democrats, before the building of the asylum is completed. That Governor Zulick should lend himself to such des- picable plot is sufficient cause for his re- moval. We trust the Senate will take into consideration the partisan action of Zulick in this matter. The removal of these gentlemen in the midst of their labors on the asylum building can in no wise be of advantage to the Territory. The positions are in no wise partisan and we do not think that any decent Demo- crat who is not blinded by party feeling would approve of this arbitrary removal of three gentlemen who are so eminently fitted for the task that has been assigned te them.

First Appearances Of Rats.

It Is but little over century ago-1775-that the first brown rat (the ordinary house rat) made his appearance in America He went as stowaway on shipboard, either from India or Persia, or possibly from some Mediterranean port. Rats were unknown in Eu- rope until the middle of the eigh- teenth century. In every town, and village, and hamlet in the United States, now the rat iH al most as we'll known as the dog or the cat, and the rodent population must be far larger than either of tEe others. So rapid is the increase of the species that single pair, if unmolested for a year, will have an offspring of hundreds in that time. In dwellings and city sew CTS the house rat is the ruler, and his black brother is driven to the wall. In the fields, and along the marshes bordering the sea coast, the musk rat and the cotton rat hold sway. Rats of many species are now to be found wherever human habitation exists. It Is easier to render building fire proof than rat-prcof.

The Firs: steel Pens.

When did steel pens come into use? Iron pens are mentioned by Chamberlyne in 1885; steel pens made long before, began to come into use about 1920, when the first gross of them was sold wholesale for G7 4s. In 1880 the price was 6s, aud in 1882 6s; a better pen is now sold for Cd a gross. Joseph Gillott introduced great improve ments in their make, and Perry be- gan the side slits which give elas- ticity. The production and con sumption of steel pens is now enor nous; their patterns innumerable. Eight hundred tons of steel are consumed yearly in making them in this country alone. The world consumes over 4,000,000 steel pens daily-that is nearly three tons. Gold pens are also now extensively made and are preferred for dura bility and resistance to the corro- sive action of Ink. They have been improved by the ingenious but difficult process of af1ixing iridium to the points of the nib, which from its extreme hardness resists wear for many years.

Prohibition in Vermont.

Many amusing incidents are handed down of the experiences of those days, Among others vas that of an estimable old sheep farmer of Vermont, who, though a churcl member and a deacon, was induced by the reform committee of the church to take the abstain ing pledge, subject only to the sheep washing periods, during which tasking times it was deem ed essential to allow of some stim- ulant. But matters did not seem to mend with the worthy deacon very much and the committee paid another remonstrating visit after while, when they found him in d woeful state of into1ication.

q hate women customers" re- piled a saleswoman in dry-goods store. She had been asked plump ly whether she preferred waiting on men, and this was her plump answer.
 "Why do you prefer men?'
 Because they know what they want, and do not care to keep you standing an hour while they fum- ble over and rumple up the goods on the counter. Why, only to-day I was showing lady black stock ings. Of course they were all the same size and quality, yet she dragged every pair out of that box and then wanted to see more. I handed down two more boxes, just like this one, and then she asked If we had any more. I told her no, and then she said l might wrap up one par for her. The lady next me made nine different sales to gentlemen while I was fooling with this one woman. I am going to try to get place in hardware store, or some place where women do not have to deal with women." Pittsburgh Dispatch.

Another Thing Nonien Can't Do.

Coming down School street in
 the rain one day last week wise, self-respecting-looking gentleman of middle age. carrying serious serge umbrella, met hurrying high-school girl with small as sertive silk umbrella in her hand. According to all ordinary rules of umbrella carrying it looked as though there would be a collision when the two umbrellas pointed at opposing angles to each other should try to pass. But the gentle man saw the girl just 1n time, and,' with superior air of experience; lifted his umbrella high up in the air. That would have saved things, but the girl had evidently been trained in the very unusual femi- nine accomplishment of umbrella lodging, and she shot her small shade upward at the same critical instant. The collision came, the umbrellas betangled themselves, the girl blushed and stammered and begged pardon; and the gen: tleman said, as he strengthened out the frame of her umbrella and politely returned 1t to her: Girls should not try to learn Greek or to sharpen lead-pencils or carry It can't be done."- Boston Record.
