 The number of stockmen who have been looking over the Salt river valley lately with 8 view to securing winter pasturage for beef steers has been unprecCdcntcdly ] large. Itis stated that in the last few days 7tf they ; purchased 4, 900 tons of hay in the stack and dtsii5s q s5 even more. The price paid IS is $4' aud $450. IL is safe to say that all our hay will be consumed the coming Wintcr.-Arizonan.
 A Nogales dispatch says the body of John P. Mccartney was found on the Eoad side near Santa Ana, Sonora. Deceased was foreman on the San Rafael cattle rarch, near here, owned by Hon. Brewster Cam eron, and had gone to Sonora to buy saddle horses. The news re- ceiycd states he committed suicide but his friends here insist that he was murdered and robbed, as he had a large sum of money when he left here about two weeks ago and it is supposed he Gas killed for his money.
 There is a future for the Saltriv- CT valley which is not understood except by those who appreciate the changed condition of the range business. All of the cattle raised on the natural grasses must here after be fattened on alfalfa. The Salt river Is the only feeding ground at present, and while it is ample to meet the present demand, by an other year the demand will largely exceed the supply, even with the increased acreage annually seeded to grass. Before the irrigating ca nals in tle Santa Cruz valley can be completed, the demand for alfal- fa to f&tten range cattle gill be so great as to consume all of the al- i falfa hay that can be grown from Tlbac to Casa Grandc.-Tucson Star.
 Among the latest aGIictions to which cattle have been subjected in this county and now reported as epidemic with Verde, Chino and Agua Fria herds is a peculiar blind ness that comes over them, and known in veterinary usage as oph- thalma. It is produced by weak ness of the eye-baIl, which, as it gradually develops. causes 8 thick white scum to form over the eye. It is easily communicable from one animal 10 another, and unless rem edies are applied, the blindness will continue for a period of atIeast six months.

A Kansas man proposes to orig. mate a new breed of stock by cross ing a Galloway bull upon a buffalo COW and in breeding the progeny. His idea is to get a breed, that will make a good robe, with the hair as long or nearly so, as the buffalo, and with the rich color and gloss of the Galloway.

railure Of Crops in the Old World.

The New York Times publishes the fol-
lowing from London: 1T now seems to
be fact that the Old World needs from
20. 900. 900 to so, O00, 900 bushels of wheat
more than the harvests of the year will
produce. To put it in another way. the
countries which always have to buy wheat
must this year buy some $40 100000 bush
els. while the countries raising more than
they consume will have about 295, 900. 900
to sell. The annual international grain
market. held in Vienna on Monday, gave
estimates of the yield of the world, which
varied only in few particulars from
those already given. the chief differences
being in unimpOrtant countries. On the
other hand. the real state of the French
harvest seems much worse than reported
al Vienna. and the same is even more OBJ
viously true of England. Yesterdays
terrific storm of wind and rain ended what
ever chance remained of decent crops in
Great Britain, and the English must now
import at least 10, 000, 900 bushels. France
which. next to the United States, is the
greatest wheat producer in the world, has
one of the worst crops ever reaped.
Whether the desires of the Spectator
and those vino wickedly create corners, have
anything to do with these gloomy views
from abroad, the future can alone exactly
determine

Don't be Cheated by Free Trade Figures

Whether IA tariff means Free Trade OF
Protection depends entirely how the duties
are imposed. Let every Republican, every
Protection speaker, every voter who
means to stand by his country, bear in
mind the fact that the amount of protec-
ton afforded by the tariff cannot be de-
termined by the height of the average rate
of duties, as the Mills bills advocates so
falsely claim. For example: The values
of England's dutiable imports (tea, coffee.
tobacco, etc. in 1856 aggregated ELS, 800
36S, or Sl45, 000, 900, and the duty collected
on these amounted to f20, i39. 49,, or $780,
900, being over sixty per cent on the
values. Yet it is free trade tariff.
A tariff bill for the United States can be
80 arranged as to produce $500, 900 of
annual revenue, yet be Il free trade meas
ure, while another bill can be made
up as to secure an annual revenue of $780,
100000 and be highly Protective in its
operation. The Mills bill is as far ia the
direction of Free Trade as its authors dare
make it. The tariff reform bill which the
Republicans favor may produce no more
revenue than the Mills bill, but it will be
adjusted on the American scale and not in
the British sense.

Was it Intended For Whopper Or a
Wicked Joke?

\ recent issue of the New Age contained
the remarkable announcement that the
farmers of Maine are taxed by the United
States Government an average of IL per
cent on the following agricultural nipple
mcnts used by them in their farming opera
tions: SCYTIEs, SCYTIIE SNATHs, SHov-
ELS, HOES, FORKS, WAGONS, MowING-
MACHINES, RAKEs OF IRON, OR PARTLY
OF lRON, RAKES OF WOOD ENTIRELY,
lIARROws, PLowS, CULTIyAToRs.
1t is sufficient to say that there is not a
single grain of hWh in this statement OF
the Democratic organ, which other Demo
cratic newspapers have endorsed. These
farming tools specified are all made in
the tnitcd States, which eXcels all coun-
tries in such productions. Those largely
in use in Europe would not be accepted
a gift by our intelligent and enterpris-
ing farmers. They are bungling and
clumsy except they are made on the Ameri-
can models, and those are generally of
an inferior character compared with those
made in the nited States. Owing to the
stimulating influence of the Protective
tariff aud of our Patent laws, the manu-
facture of agricultural implements and
machinery in this country has reached
great perfection and grown to enormous
proportions. Instead of importing them
from Europe, we have exported to for
eign countries many millions of dollars
value of them since the adoption of the
Morrill, tariff This extensive manufac-
ture OF agricultural implements in the
United States, instead of being burden
to our farmers as the New Age and other
Democratic newspapers would have the
farmers of Maine believe, has been of
great advantage to this country. 1t gives
employment to large number of men,
aids to build up prosperous villages and
towns, creates home markets for what the
farmers raise, diversifies industry and
prevents the OVERRIDING of the farmers oc-
cIpation, and keeps a large amount OF
gold and silver in this country, instead of
allowing it to he sent abroad to purchase
what we can better produce ourselves.

We repeat the warning to the Republi-
cans, TO be on their guard against the
cheating plans and plots of the Cleveland
ties for operation next Monday. The
Free Traders are desperate, and only by
desperate means do they hope to withstand
the strong tide of Republican sentiment
In New York they are receiving a great
sum of money from the liquor dealers to
aid in the election of Hill and Cleveland
In Maine they are plotting with convicted
rumsellers to defeat Republican candi-
dates for County Attorneys, while they
are urging on the assistance of the Third
Party Prohbitionists to aid them to &C
complish the same result. Republicans
will see to it that none of these Democrat
ic devices shall have success. They will
watch the plotters, whoever they may be,
and wherever they may attempt to strike
down Republican candidates. See to it
that no split tickets are cheated into Repnb-
licaR hands. He Is AN ENEMY TO PRoTEC-
TON. TRAITOR TO THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY. WHO PAsTES THE NAME OF A
DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE OVER THE NAME
OF A REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE, in the
hope that he may induce Republican
voter to thoughtlessly accept it and de-
post 1t In the ballot box. Let Republi-
cans everywhere keep solid ranks. be di-
rected by no side issue, and magnificent
victory will be theirs next Monday

The Lying Assault. Of Che 81 any.

As we supposed, the Portland Herald,
that, of the Democrats. 1t published a
low and abusive article on Hon. E. C,
Burleigh, which was so VIGOROUSLY false
that il published a retraction, which We
copied in connection with the full. con-
elusive statement of Messrs. Titcomb,
gentlemen whose standing and char
acter for integrity are unsurpassed in this
or any other community. But since his
retraction, like the dog which returns to his
vomit, the editor has been In collision with
some of the most INSCRIPTIONS Demo-
cratic partisans there are in Maine, and
repeats his misrepresentation of the
Central House management in another
form, which in their obvious intent are as
false as the story he originally told, and
subsequently admitted to be false.
He will not deny that his
setoRd eerstoa ras born in the Office o.
the Ne,e Age, with whose editors he is en-
gagged in joint assault on the Republican
candidate. The present Herald story
purposely told to deceive, comedies
that since 1856 the Central House has moi
been suspected of being other than a
temperance house. The Herald does not
deny that Mr.. Burleigh's instructions to
the agents Of the property always have
been to allow no one to rent the house
who would not agree to refuse to sell
liquors. 1t does not deny that the agents
have always acted in good faith in carry
ing out the instructions of the owner, and
in so doing have refused much larger
rent without the liquor selling restriction
1t does not deny that two years
since the owner of the house
having suspicious, of what no legal proof
could be obtained, urged that the occu-
pant of it should be gotten rid of. All
else of the first and second statements OF
the Herald's story are base mis-
representations of the facts. From
the date of his ownership. Mr..
Burleigh's conduct has been that OF
a man of honor, DESTROYS that the laws
should be obeyed and enforced. But he
as well rs the most faithful officer of the
law is liable sometimes to be deceived
How far the editor of the Herald in this
matter has been weak rather than knavish
we cannot clearly determine. But one
thing is certain, that he and those who art
acting with him, are conspirators in tht
interests of the Democratic party, caring
nothing for Temperance or public order
and as such are to be considered and treat.

Mr.. Blaine on the Presidents Error

In his article on The Presidents Error,
in The American Magazine for September
Mr.. Blaine says;
Strangely enough the President neglects
either from design or oversight, TO notice
what effect the serious reduction of the
tariff would have on the l,sl0256 men en-
ployed in transportation, viz, on the rail
roads, coast-wise vessels, river steamers and
barges, canal, wagon and stage lines. These
varied ways of transportation represent an
investment of thousands of millions of dol
lars of American money and give you en-
ployment to nearly two millions of men.
whose earnings support nine millions of
people. Whatever impairs American manu-
featuring, strikes at the great transportation
interests. Iron ore, admitted free from
Spain, coal admitted free from Nova Scotia,
wool admitted free from Australia. all favor
British ships at the expense of American
railroads. The further the President goes
in the direction of the doctrine laid Town in
his message, the more direct and the more
deadly is the assault upon the whole organi-
cation of American industries.

LoNGyIEw, Tex, Aug. 81.
About O'Clock this afternoon Deputy
Sheriff Walter Reynolds returned from his
the colored politician who was forcibly taken
from his home few nights ago by masked
band of Ku Klux. Spencer had deserted
the Union Labor party and announced his
intention of supporting the Republican ticket.
Reynolds reported that he had found Spen-
GERS body about three and half miles from
this place, on the west bank of Harris
Greek. No sooner had the news spread
than over 100 citizens, white aad black,
started to the scene. The dead man was
found hanging from limb about fifteen feet
from the ground with rope around his neck.
His hands were tied behind him and the cords
were drawn so tightly that they cut deeply
into his flesh. He was evidently shot before
the rope was placed around his neck. There
one in his left side, and he had been brutally
mutilated. A movement is on foot to inves-
tigate thoroughly this crime. The following
circular was issued this afternoon and 225
citizens responded to the call contained
therein:
To all law abiding citizens "A crime of the
most foul nature has just been perpetrated in
our midst. Therefore let us come together
at o'clock this evening at the court house
and take proper steps that our citizeus and
officers may act in unity, that the perpetra-
tors of this crime may be discovered and the
law of our land indicated.

More Good Signs in the Empire State

Congressman Mason has returned to
Washington, having recently spent num-
Der of days in New York. He is much
pleased with his observations and expert
ences in that State. At Glen Cove. where
the Duryea starch works are, he says he
was taken to the house of one of the pro-
prietors, who told him that of the seven
members of his family connected with the
works six had voted for Cleveland four
years ago. All were determined to vote
for Harrison and protection this year.
Over 100 men in the works who had voted
the Democratic ticket four years ago had
expressed their intention of supporting
the Republican candidates this fall, and
the town committee was said to have the
names of 100 Democrats in that one man
ufacturing town who will follow the same
course.
