WHENEVER it becomes necessary to have recourse t0 the trade and tricks of the demagogue, t betrays weakness. Whenever there is an unworthy purpose to accomplish, the favored method of the unscru- pulous is to attempt the winning of supporters, by exciting preju- dice and ill-will, and by making the unsuspecting and ignorant be licve they are the victims of those whose downfall is desired. 'Tis often strange to witness how low human nature will sometimes stoop to conquer, but final retribution is foreshadowed ill the old saying, whom the gods wish to destroy, they first make mad"

WE ARE glad to note that Presi- dent Cleveland has reinstated N E. Benton, Es4., as Unitcd States District Attorney for the Western District of Missouri. Mr. Benton was suspended about the 1st of No vembur, for actively participating in the late political campaign in his State. We take pleasure in ac. knowledging q personal acquain- tance of long standing with Mr Benton and knowing him to be a capable, conscientious and ener- gctic gentleman and attorney, be lieve his removal would have been a detriment to the public service and an unmerited rebuke to him, His only fault was his over-zcalous convictions, perhaps ill-advised, but intended for good.

Baca stands without recognition among the officials of the county, and with out a bond which in form or amount would protect the county in any of his acts 6Ir. Baca has upon scye- raj occasions desired 10 surrender the records of his office, and rid himself of the embarrassmcnts which surround him, but the inn portunities of reckless and indiS- erect advice has caused him to hold on. The unpleasant complications in Washington as to the judiciary of the Territory, has prevented q session of court in Apache county since the commencement of these troubles, and taking advantage of this state of affairs, matters were precipitated and prolonged. The question would have been adjudi- cated long ago by the most sum mary process of the law, had there been a possible opportunity to do SO. Had a court been accessible the empty honor of forcible withhold ing would not be so defiantly ex-
 hibited in public print, These are the facts before the taxpayers and the adoption of ad eaptandum res oiutions do not affect the issues,
 for he who acts upon them must
 bear the responsibility and assume
 the peril He who pays his money
 to bondless officer after removal 1 by legally constituted authority
 must do so at his own risk.

There are two hundred of them, each of the denomination of $1, ,000, and they are to remain in charge of the County Treasurer until paid out to the Railroad Com pany.

UNDER the caption Taxes" the Era publishes a preamble and res olutions which are remarkable in text and construction. The reso- lutions are attested by the names ot seven residents of the county. We presume the people of the county are thoroughly posted as to the status of affairs referred to in the resolutions. The sO-called Treas urer de facto" under the acts pro- viding for sUch contingencies was removed by the Board of Supervi
 sors for a failure to furnish a legal bond. and such an one as would protect the taxpayers in the safe keeping of funds lodged in his hands. This matter stands un- changed in all of it's features up to the present date. A Treasurer was appointed by the Board to fill the unexpired term of Mir. Baca, and such Treasurer has properly quail fled within the time specified by law, and has placed upon file 8 bond correct in form and abundant- ly ample in its securities.

WAR still seems threatening in Europe. Il is claimed if Russia should resort to arms an Austrian army will invade Servia, tke fleets of England, Austria and Italy will take possession of the Euxine sea. Germany will watch Poland, and if France should ally herself with Russia, the Italians will occupy the Alps. The following is the latest outlook:
 SOFIA, Nov. 1S.-The Czar has instructed Gen. Kaulbars to leave Bulgaria at once, with all the Rus sian Consuls, if his note to the Re gency demanding dismissal from office of Gen. Mutkuroif, the com mandant at PhillipDcpolis, for his conduct in arresting Russian ca vase, is not compiled with. In the event of departure Gen. Kaulbars has been ordered to place all Rus sians in Bulgaria and Eastern Rou- melia under the care of the Ger man agent at Sofia. Gen. Kaulbars is expected to leave Bulgaria on Saturday. The Regents have asked Gen. Kaulbars to give them time to reply to his ultiinatum. They wish until the end of the week, when all the Ministers will be in the city.
 It is believed that Gen. Kaulbars has been instructed to find a pre- text to end his mission in Bulga- ria by some coup d'etat which would make his departure a politi- cal necessity. Suspicion prevails that he is attempting to work up a case out of the incident of the. arrest of the Russian cavasse at Phillippopolis.
 Gen, Kaulbars and all the Rus sian Consuls will leave Bulgaria on Friday. Everybody expects that Russia will occupy that country.
 VIENNA, Nov. 18.-The statement that all the Powers had sanctioned the candidacy of Prince Nicholas of Mingrelia, for the Bulgarian throne, is semi-oficially declared to be untrue. Count Kalnoky has not replied to Russia's proposals.
 Count Andrassy declared to-day that Count Kalnoky had satisfied him on one point only, and that the reports crediting him with abandoning the opposition must be amended.
 During the session of the Aus trian budget committee to-day De- puties Demmet, Maltusch, Hausner and Sturm discussed the Bulgarian question.

 r--7-y----r----------,
 TIE Orion Era concluded the performance of its existence No ycmber filth, with a valedictory and a series of c.ooning editorials, which in many respects should oc- cupy the front rank in a collection of literary curiosities. Equal rights seem to exercise such an infatul- ton upon the belated imagination of the Bras chief of staff, that if the frenzy of the spell increases, we fear the worthy editor will find the only equality he possesses in coul- mon with his fellow-citizens, is the right to become ward of some public institution. Has any citizen of Apache county been sold into bondage? Has any one been de- nied freedom of speech, personal liberty under the law, or the pur- suit of happiness in conformity with the rights of others? Did not every citizen of the county, who saw fit to do so, exercise the right of suffrage at the late election? Of what, then, does the Era complain? Wherein consists the ostracisnl, de- nial of political rights, persecu- tions, etc? If you are poor who made you so, and whose fault is 1t 1 that you remain so? Have you not the same right as any other Amer ican citizen to acquire wealth and to keep 1t? Is it not a notorious fact that the wealthiest Americans are those who commenced life in the humblest circumstances, and frequently under most trying or deals and disadvantages? Every man in this country who is invest ed with citizenship, enters the arena of life the equal of his neighbor, save in such gifts as his Creator has made him the better man. There is one thing, however, that must be remembered and acted upon in or der to succeed if you aspire to pc sition in life, you must win 1t, and if you deserve 1t, effort is all that is required to obtain it. Poverty is no crime in this country, but should | be only spur to urge true man hood to achievement. It is only the weak, the faltering and craven who will fall by the waysidc, and whine and curse the brighter for tunes of those whose thrift, indus try and intelligence have carried them ahead in the race of life. Every American is truly the "arch- itcct of his own fortune, and if he but wills it, nothing is left but to follow the pursuit to accomplish ment. It is disgusting and unman- Iy to hear an American cite his poverty as d reason he IS despised and that his position should con tinue to be q lowly one. Get up % to work-be industrious, frugal and contcnted and the battle Is won. God made us all poor, but man keeps himself so.

pointed reference to the intense con-
ditions OF modern life. Among the
most obvious and alarming perils, the
Bishops say, are the temptations in.

tho contempt of lawful authority and
tho spread of unbelief. The increase
Of poverty, discomfort and pride are

fortunes and the growth of luxury.
:'How," tho Bishops ask, "shall this
discomfort and misery be remedied,

and tho less favored and successful OF
tho community be rendered cheerful
and contented with their lott" But
