A Deficiency Of Bulls.
Has Vegas Stock Grower I

lAdss ' eSaS OCOck GrOWer.
 It will be noticed in looking over our live stock laws that no provision has been made to regulate the opera tions of the rangeman who has a de- feiency of bulls ih his herd. Nothing has arisen among the stockmen during the year which has excited their in- terest to such degree as the question of running bulls in sufficient number, and the general detestation that is felt forthe man who steals the service of hs neighbor's bulls is none the less a matter of interest than the former question. A law should be enacted, and we believe that it will meet with almost general approval, which com pels every cattle raiser to put on the range one good, serviceable, grade bull for every twenty head of female bear ing cattle thereon. This is matter of equity and justice to all. The enactment of such law will only af- feet him who requires the compulslon of the law to do what his neighbors have already done through senti- ment of decency and good business judgment. The unprogreSsive fellow needs a prod to bring him into line with other member of the cattle grow ing fraternity. The prOdding should be directed against the scrub bulls and the man with no bulls at all, or who depend at most on his neighbors for this important element of successful cattle raising.
 There is such a provision in the stock laws of Arizona, but in this sec tion of the Territory it remains dead letter on the statute book.-ED. BELT.

A Notable Event.

Probably no more brilliant an aud fence, nor one representing such enor- nous wealth ever assembled in place of public entertainment as witnessed the opening of the season of German opera at the Metropolitan Opera House, in New York City, recently. The seventy-two prlvate boxes had been engaged by the wealthiest and most aristocratic families of the me- trOpolis, and were decorated Tn the most sumptuous style by the occu- pants. The New York World esti- mates that the wealth represented in the boxes aggregates $79O, 100000, and in the body of the house many millions more. Among the holders of boxes appear the names of Jay Gould, w. K. Vanderbilt, c. Vanderbilt, w. Rockefeller and Heber R. Bishop of the Standard Oil Co.,, Cyrus W. Field, J. J. Astor, Mrs. yWm. Astor, Henry Clews, Charles Cr9cker, Austin COrbin, Ogden and Robert Goelet, J. W. Drex- el, Jas. Gordon Bennett, c. P. Hun tington, Levi P. Morton, Mrs. Thur Der, Mrs. J. c. Aver, D. O. Mills, Hen ry G. Marquand, J. P1erpont Morgan and others. The experienced eye de- tected along every circle faces known in the realms of journalism, finance, commencement whose names are rec ognized as powers ln the learned pro- feSSions, women who shine in the cir cles they adorn, a very galaxy of splendcr and of intellect combined. A more notable gathering was never seen in New York.

Negroes in washington.

The national capital will need to be fortified by white immigration Tn or Ger t6 protect 1t from the surplus col cred population. The colored people how number 30,O00 out of the 180,00O odd people composing the population of this District: There are at least 150,000 whites in the District. In the last annual report of the health officer I notice that of the births during the year there were 1885 white children born to 1,537 of the colored. Al though the whites are nearly five to one to the eolored people Tn point of population the number of colored children born nearly equals Tn num- Der that of the whites. Those who think that the colored race is falling of and will gradually die out in this country should note these figures. I am told by Southern people that the negroes are becoming more prosper ous year by year in the South, and with that prosperity they are rapidly increasing in numbers. They are large property-holders in Washington, and one street in the fashionable part of the city, Fifteenth street, is so we'll controlled and fortified by colored property-owners that they cannot be driven from it.

Mrs. Langtry's Great Book.
[From the Philadelphia Times

From the Philadelphia Times.
 The novel with which Mrs. Langtry proposes to eleetrify a long-suffering public is now said to be on the high road to completion. According to ru- nor, this is about the way the ambl- tious author is writing it: During the hours that her dramatic duties claim her attention a promising litterateur writes two, three, four, or even half dozen chapters. The next morning these are taken into the naughty beau tvs rooms and read to her, while she, clad in the most ravishing morning costume, sips her French coffee and eats her early roll. If they suit her she dismisses the writer with some in- Structions on the next few chapters, without even asking him to have eith- CT coffee or a roll; but further than this her authorship does not extend. The gossip is that the real author of the book is a man of considerable abil- ity, and that he is weaving many of the dubious Langtry experiences into the work with light and graceful hand. When finished the work is to be placed is, knocked down to the enterprising publisher who will pay highest for the unusual honor of giving so eminent a woman's remin- iscences to the world.

The "RIO Grande Republic. |"
From the Globe-Democrat.I l

OOl. w ate Sanford, or IOm Ureene County, Tex; Maj. Bill Davis, of Ma rla, Tex; Rod Hume, of Deming, N. M., and Chris. O'Connor, of San Simon, Arizona, arrived in St. Louis yester- day morning, accompanied by two gentlemen more or less prominent in Texas politics, who desire their names to be kept in the shade for the present. These gentlemen are Commissioners from the ''Socialistic Republic of the Rio Grande," about which great deal has been said in the newspapers of late. It IS their object-So they say to take advantage of the excitement caused on the Mexican border by the Cutting incident, and to invade the three Northwestern States of Mexico and the territory of Lower California, conquer them and establish what they term a socialistic republic. Sanford, Davis. Hume and 0'Connor are typi- cal pioneers and border men, and their companions are men influential in Texas, one of them being an ex-State Senator, and the other, for number of years until recently, a District Judge. They are all dead n earnest and sanguine of ultimate success. Col. Sanford is a wsSthy cattfeman, and firmly believes hat the magnificent ranges of Northern Mexico should be utilized by American cowmen. Maj. Davis is a sheepman, whose focks have had four years on the north shores of the Rio Grande. Mr. Hume is freIghter, who has made piles of money running stage lines and haul ing ores from mountain camps in New Mexlco and Arizona to the stamp mills and smelters in the low lands.
 Mir. O'Connor is an Arizona miner, and claims to have discovered, opened and perfected his title to, but was sub sequently bllked by Mexican officials out of, some of the finest mining claims in Chihuahua. In fact, all of the men save the ex-Senator and ex-Judge have some grievance againt Mexico. All are veteran Mexican haters.
 The delegation leaves for Chicago this morning to submit their schemes to leading cattlemen in attendance on the Convention there. It is not likely that the matter will be brought open ly before the Convention, but one of the Commissioners hinted that some tall lobbying would be done,
 Since the adoption of the lease law policy in Texas, that State is not con- sidered such an inviting field for cat tlemen as formerly, and the fine rang es now unoccupied, or partially so, in Northern Mexlco are rather tempting, Col. Sanford thought that before the 1st of Malch next the campaign would be in full operation.
 It might be of interest to prospec- tive soldiers or statesmen expecting to distinguish themselves in Mexlco to understand the United States law re- latIng to filibustering.
 Section 5286 of the Revised Statutes prescrlbes that any person who in the United States begins, or sets on foot, or prepares the means for any mili- tary expedition to be carried on against any country with which our own is at peace, shall be liable, on conviction, to fine of $3,OOO and inn prisonment for three years.
