DAYS GONE BY.
Pretty Story of Early Life in Arizona Territory.
 (Range JoUrnsl)


 A hot Arizona day had burnt itself out, and lay in lazy blue smoke vresths under the cool shadows of the San FrsncIsco peaks. The ar was heavy with dust too lazy to descend agaln to earth, and the grest sugar pines had perspired until their aromatic SC snt seemed the most pungent life then existing. The cattle and horses came poking slowly up to the big corrsls, and Ihe cowboys logged sullenly behind, too listless to even swear at their charges. Just as the last animal was croued into tbe corrsls, one of the boys called the attention of the rest to H brown speck away of on the plains 10 the east, con- jog ss though some mighty terror WAS pursuing. As the speck drew nearer it shaped itself into 6 horse and the horse was recognized as one ridden by Burt HsIleck, two dsys before, to warn the settles on the Oolorsdits st Sunset cross of a band of Apsches. No one was rid ing the horse, but ss he came up ss 8 ione, swift gsllop to the corrsls the boys noticed & small bundle that was bound nohtly to the saddle, and when old Pete had stopped at the bars they noticed a long cactus limb tied to his tail that ex- pIaIned his haste and suDdry wicked kicks Emmons loosened this bundle, ,snd a, he did SO, unrolled 1t and showed ihe face of & baby, with a slip of paper pin ned to its frock underneath. The sli p had been ,orn from sn old newspaper, and on it was scrswled, with the lead and of a cartridge: Picked this up at the Crossing, Patches IS here and Pete 2 pIayed. Am going to stay and fight B.H. The baby had been lolted till there wasn't 8 cry left m IL, ss Tom
 FIdr,dve remarked, and one of the boys hastepei with it to the house, while the rest began catching out fresh horses.
 Inst as fact as nervous hands could fssten ciuchea, the horses were made ready. and in less than fifteen minutes from 'old Pete's' appearance slI boys

faction of the republican party, were asked what
they thoughr of General Mshones reply to Chair
man Houston, in which Mshone agrees to leave
the dispute in reference to the two electoral tick

Cameron said that he thought Mahonc had drawn
the lines pretty close, bur that be did not believe
the party Of which he was q representative would
agree to any such proposition as that offered by
Malone. The matter, however, would be left to
the State committee, Of which Col. D. F. Houston
is chairman, which will probably meet soon to
take such action as may be thought proper in the
premises. Congressman Brady, member of the
State and national committee, declined to express
an opinion for the reason that the matter might
be brought before the latter committee for con-
sideration
