James C.. Blaine, who has spent sey- eral months travelling through Europe and who IS close observer of affairs, writes The issue of protection is incal- culably stronger and greater than any man, for 1t concerns the prosperity of the present and generations yet to come. Were 1t possible for every voter m the republic to see for himself the condition and recompense of labor in Europe, the party of free trade in the United States would not receive the support of one wage-worker between the two oceans. It may not be directly in our power, as phllanthropists, to elevate European labor, but it will be lasting stigma upon our statesmanship if we permit the Amer ican laborer to be forced down to the European level, and in the end the re ward of labor everywhere will be ad- vanced if We steadily refuse to lower the standard at home.

The Great Range Grass.

The JOURNAL MINER has at differen ] times made mention of the range gras:
 now coming into prominence, called as
 perse;t. The Silver Guy (N M En tcrprise in recent issue has the follow
 ing concerning Il, which will be reaG
 with interest b} every man in Arizcn ns
 interested in stock ranges:
 w. H. Taylor. of the Mimbres, one o Grant county's most progressive farm CTS and stockmep, came up this week on court business. Some months ago he
 read an article on asperse,t, in the En.
 terprise. the new forage plant which na'
 ture seems to have especially produced
 for that arid region of the world. MT.
 Taylor immediately sent to Carson.
 Nevada, where he IS we'll acquainted, for
 some seed, and the plant is now grow ng on his ranch and has reached height of six or seven inches. The botanical
 name of the plant is sanfoin, by witch
 it is known in Nevada. The plart has
 but recently been introduced into Amer
 ica from Hungary, but it seems to
 have sprung into universal favor wher-
 ever tried, Steve Uhle, ot the brewery
 depct on broadway, is perfectly familiar
 with the plant tn the old country, as are several other citizens of this section, all of whom state that il is all that is claimed for 1t. The seed sells readily at from $2 to $5 per pound. The plant will survive the coldest winter and grow luxuriantly without irrigation in the hottest and dryest portions Of either Arizona or New Mexico, and IS not averse to the plains and stony ridges The stems of the plant are two or three feet long struggling taperlng smooth the leaves are in pairs of pointed ob- long leaflets slightly hairy on the un- terside-fower stalks higher than the leaves, ending in spike of crimson or variegated flowers succeeded by fat hard pods, toothed on the edge and prlckly on the sides, the root is pcrer- nial and hard ard woody. The plant lowers early in July, and two crops season may be counted on here in the Rocky mountain country. It does best n calcareuos soil Is highly estet med IS a plant for increasing the flow of mich CONS. Unlike alfalfa it does not ,roduce bloat and may be fed in green tate with lmpunity.
 If the stories told of the wonderful | !rowth and tenacity of this plant are in ny degree correct, sanfoin will realize Il the hope of stockmen. and convert he vast plains, as well as the rocky anges and burnt districts of Utah, Ne. ada, New Mexico and Arizona, and the 'acifc northwest into wealth producing The want of such plant is ommon to all these territories, and to upply it as claimed will add millions to ,e wealth and value Of the national do- 'ain. MT. Taylor's experiments will be atched with great interes, by stockmen this section.

Pete Gabriel and Joe Phy, both ex sherIffs ot Plnal county, fought with ris tols Tn Florence, in which both received wound supposed to be fatal. Phy only lived few hours and Gabriel has two bullet holes through him. An old polli- ical feud was the casus belli. Each oi them had previously made a record, it is sad. of killing his man and bad blood has existed for two or three years be- tween them. Gabriel attended United States court in Phenix, as a grand juror, and just before leaving for home re- marked that he was afraid to go back as he anticipated trouble.
