sided. DR.. Howard Crosby told an an.
ecdoto to illustrate the power Of sympa.

ago he was on Fourth avenue horse
car when drunken man entered and
began using profanc and vulgar Ian
guagc. Some of tho mon in tho car
spoke very stcrnly to tho intruder, and
told him to 'shut up" Tho man went
on cursing worse than before. DR..
Crosby went over to him and began talk
ing to him in soothing strain. The
drunken fellow quieted, and in few
moments got up TO leave the car. Ashc
did GO he Gcowled savagely upon the men
who had spoken harshly to him. Then
he turned to DR.. Crosby, his face beam

hand affectionately on DR.. Crosby's back,
he said;

He Feared He Was TO lie Sacrificed for tho
Death Rate Average.
Bill Nye was lecturing in Pennsylvania
q short time ago with James Whitcomb
Riley. At one of his appointments Mr..
Nye, so it is said, felt very much de-
pressed. 1t is popularity of humorists
to be melancholy at times, and he was in
this mood at tho time. One of the COM
mittee went back of the scenes to see
him. and tho depressed humorist well
coined him as a scene of unusual good
sunshine. They shook hands-Nye earn
estly, the committeeman decorously.
"Mr. Nye," he said gravely, ''you viii
find this an unusually healthy city,"
"Ah!" said tho humoitst.
"Yes, the death rate is only one a
day"
At this juncture Nye took tho commit
teeman by tho arm and hurriedly asked:
sis no deadY
"Deadw calculated the committeeman.
"Who dead?'
"why, the man for today" was the
grave reply.
Tho committeeman stared with all his
might into the immovable face Of the
locturer.

it is for the interest OF Virginia to exempt

the local Democracy must keep in with

cratic party. The Virginia Democrats

We copy from the Tucson Citizen upon !

WE copy from the Tucson Citizen upon
question which greatly concerns not
only the people of this city, but the peo-
pie OF every town in this territory The
local newspapers should be well and
literally sustained, Specially should the
merchants of our towns be liberal a1ycr-
tisers. A daily newspaper, like the New
MEXICAN does steady, wholesome and
unremitting work for the locality it is
published in. This work ought to he APP
preciatcd, and it can not be better appre-
riated than by liberal treatment. y
paper like the New MEXICAN is OF the
Greatest possible benefit to the place it is
published in and generally to the section
OF country it represents, and this ought
to he July acknowledged, and all bust
ness in its line ought to be given to it.
1t i3 only pure matter OF business.
The more liberal the support, the better
and stronger the paper and the better
and more profitable for the community
Says the Citizen
The best evidence OF the prosperity,
growth and general good condition OF a
town and county is the quality and evil
dent prosperity OF Its newspapers. There
is more IN thIs statement than casual
readers are probably willing to admit, but
if they VIII stop and consider moment
they will admit the force Of our sta ement.
The character OF a newspaper presented
to the stranger is the one lie judges the
community by. But it is impossible for
any man to publish tirSt-class jornua
unless it be literally patronized.
We do not mean by this that every
man in the the city and county should
contribute in a charitable way to its sup
port; not by any means. When Il news
paper adopts the plan OF getting some
thing for nothing, Il species OF blackmall-
ing, its usefulness is gone and its stability
impaired. But what We insist upon is that
a newspaper should receive the patronage
OF the city and county i'll which it is pub
lished For instance, We know it is a
fact that many OF our people contend that
they can get job printing done at lower
rates in California and the east than in
Tucson.
The same argument, ii good, holds good
when applied to the very men complain
ing that articles such as they deal in can
be purchased at 4 cheaper rate in Caifor-
mia and in the east than from them, but
we contend that it would be wrong to
pursue practice OF purchasing in these
places, ignoring our merchants; every
dollar sent away from this place retards
its progress Just 50 much.
So far as printing ;3 concerned, We say
emriatically that the prices charged in
this city are no higher, all things con-
sidered, than i'll the east, We challenge
comparison, and we do not think it fair,
or good business, to avoid patronizing
home printing offices. There is no class
or style OF work that the Citizen office is
not prepared to do. Our workmen are
equal to any on the Pacific cost. There
was time when it was necessary to send
away for printing, but such is not the
case now.
