Read the Death Roll.

Which the bills of mortality of any large city may be ftly designated, and you will find that renal and vesical mal- adles, that is to say, those that affect the kidneys or bladder, have remarkable prominence-we had almost said-pre ponderance. Brighti's disease and dia- betes in the chronic stage are rarely cur ed, and gravel, catarrh of the bladder and enuresis, slay many. Yet at the outset, when the trouble merely amounts to inactivity of the organs involved, the danger may be nullified by that pleasant renal tonic and diuretic, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which imparts the re- quisite amount of tone to the organs, without over exciting them, and the use of which is convenient, and involves nc elaborate preparation. Dyspepsia, a us ual concomitant of renal complaints, and debility, which they invariably produce are remedied by it. So also are consti patton, malarial, rheumatic and nervou; ailments.

What Push Can Accomplish.

The first experience of a millionaire merchant of Philadelphia on his arrival in this country aptly illustrates what push can do. When he stepped ashore from the sailing vessel, he said, T was without money or friends. spoke to man on the wharf and asked him what to do. He replied, Work young man. Have you any mottoP 'No,' I said; what do you meani' He said, Every man must have motto. Now, think of one. Gc out and hunt for work.
 ''I started, thinking of a motto. As l walked along the street saw painted on a door the word Push I said, that shall be my motto I did push at that door, and entered an office. was asked what wanted. I said Work and the word on your door gave me not only a motto, but confidence
 "My manner pleased the man. He asked me many questions, all of which were answered promptly. He said at last: I want boy of push, and as you have adopted that as your motto l will try you.
 ''He did. My success followed, and the motto that made my fortune will make that others"

Mining Matters

The wonderful richness of the Silver King mine and other mines tributary to this valley, must convince all that our mining interests are scarcely of less 1ln
 portance than agriculture. From a gen tleman just returned from Pinal county we learn that that rich section is in quite a state of prosperous activity. The Sil- yer King Company are employing more men at the mines now than for long time past. This company is also putting in small plant at the mill at Pinal for lixiviation works. The Crispin and an other new discovery at the King are also working good forces of men with good results. and the most fiattering prospects.
 At DeNoon, south of Pinal, the Key inert Company, under the able manage ment of the Walkers, of Florence, is achieving the most satisfactory results. The mines owned by this company are wonderfully large and rich. Three mines keep the.mill--ten stamps-runnInga at ar average reduction per day ot more than twenty tons of ore. With eleven feet of pay ore, this property promises to be- come one of the largest producers in the Territory within twelve months. More extensive milling facilities are all that is required to accomplish this result.

The Peralta Grant.

A Washing ton telegram of the 9th says: It is stated that MT. Lebarnes, before whom the appeal from the decision of the surveyor general of Arizona in the Peralta grant claim, refusing prellm- mary survey, was heard, will decide the point against Sophie Reavis. Mir. Lo- barnes will rule that the point raised by Surveyor General Hise that there IS no money to pay for the desired survey IS well founded, and will dismiss the appeal on that point. He will also hold, how ever, that the claimants have no right to the survey of the reservation until their claim is recognized by the surveyor -ge IT, eral of Arizona The next step to be taken by Reavis and his New York syn dicate will in all probability be an appli- cation to the secretary of the interior fol an order to have the entire matter made up and sent to him.

THE creation of new State of the Union has been very clearly defined by Representative Springer, Chairman of the Committee on Territories. He says: 'The admission of new State is very important matter and cannot be done on a mere application or on any arithmetical basis. Some how an impression has got abroad that a Territory must have a cer- tain population to qualify it for admis- sion. There is no law and no custom about it. The admission of a new State is entirely a matter of legislative dis cretion. It is within the power of Con gress Co erect No Mans Land into a State and admit it to the Union.

THE partisan newspapers are already discussing the issues of the coming cam paign with all the enthusiasm that char actcrizes the fitful fever of an exciting contest, although nearly half a year will elapse before the nominations are made and the issue joined by the party man agcrs. Free Trade and Protection are themes of never-ending discussion and we might add that the more they are dis cussed the less clear they appear to the discriminating voter who would rather be right than be President. This pro fligate waste of the munitions of the po- litical warfare before the armies are arrayed in battle alignment is a curious Americansm. It is like striking match to test its reliability. Ten months of unqualified praise on the one hand and vituperation on the other still remain to be patiently endured, after which the prosper pretty much as though the de- | lirum had never existed. There is all together too much clap-trap about our elections. The political campaigns be- come a species of licensed alteration, very undignifed and full of evils that do not always end at tie polls. Therefore the shorter the time allowed for these riots of reason the better it is for the tranquility of the whole nation and the better will the result voice the true sen timents of the people. The press, par ticularly, will carry on more effective fusilade by saving their scant powder until the enemy is at least in sight.

Tin Deposits in the United States

A recent shipment of 5000 pounds of
tin ore from the Black Hills district of
Dakota to England has caused a sudden
change of opinion there as to the richness
of the deposits of the Black Hills
In the shipment mentioned there were
blocks of tin ranging in weight from one
ton 10 j, 400 pounds, and the size of these
specimens moved the London Chronicle to
predict that at no remote period not only
will the United States be able to obtain its
entire supply from within its own borders,
but these mines BLACK Hills will also be
able to supply a considerable quantity of
the metal for export"
The Chronicle also makes the assertion
that " the supply of bar tin required by
the United States at the present is one
third the entire production of the world,
and at this moment the United States con-
sumes two-thirds of the tin plate man
ufactured in England, the two items to-
gether amounting annually to e6,000,000
sterling
The same journal further states that. ac-
cording to official data, the ores of Corn
wall, Eng, do not average over forty-five
pounds of block tin to the ton of ore and
rock sent to the mill for reduction while.
according to experts, the mica" and
"spar" of the Dakota mines yield So per
cent. of metallic tin.
In addition to these fattering opinions
of the London Chronicle, the Industrial
Repiew of the great British metropolis re-
iterates an assertion which it states was
made in its columns in July last, that
the United States will, within a period
that may be measured by months instead
of years, become independent of all out
side supply for her tin"
To many people even of the great West
these comments from foreign journals as to
the tin deposits of Dakota will excite
much surprise. Stories of erich finds" of
mineral are so common nowadays, and so
many of them are mere fictions of ire
sponsible persons, that when genuine dis
covery is made people are incredulous as
to its extent and richness.
The Black Hills promised so much gold
that did not materialize under effort, that
the reports of tin discovery in that re-
gion were at first taken with more than a
grain of salt.-Repubtic OF Honduras.
