The Territorial legislature meets in
Prescott on Monday next. We believe
that the members Of the coming legisla-
ture are workers and that the business
which comes before them win be dis
patched with promptness, and that there
will be no jobs. We have great conf
dence in the members from this county,
and We know that they viii not tolerate
anything in the shape OF crookedness or
unfair legislation.

Capt. John T. Hogue, editor OF the
Apace Review, announces that the issue
OF the 9th instant win be the last, and
gives az one Of the reasons that, "there
are too many Mormons in Apache county
to admit Of the successful growth OF Re-
publican newspaper here at this stage OF
civilization" We regret the causes that
leads to the suspension Of the Review
and hope that its publication will be re-
sumed, as il has always been one of our
bes. exchanges.

invitation from our citizens, stopped over

In the afternoon be met q number of citi-
zens interested in the artesian we'll pro-
ject at Judge Nichols Office. After gen.
eral interchange of views, the Captain
made very interesting talk explanatory
Of the work he has in hand. He stated
that he did not believe any part Of the
800, 900 appropriated by Congress could
be expended in boring wells, as the act
making the appropriation did not author
ize an expenditure for such purpose. This
might be altered, however, through the
proper channels. After the meeting,
Captain Dutton was driven around the
valley in the near vicinity Of town and
expressed himself as highly pleased With
what he saw. Much Of the soil, he said,
was equal TO any in the world, and he
predicted that, II artesian water could be
secured here land he believes itcan), this
valley will become great agricultural

BOOKS AND AUTHORS.

"MAaDALES's FORTUNES" by w. Helm
burg, translated by Mrs. G. w. Davis,
Worthington Co., 747 Broadway, Ntw
York.
In advertising book at the presen: time
the notices generally contain words like
these: "The story is based upon a pro-
blem similar to that in John Ward'';
Zone of the great social questions of the
day" or, "a true study of human ma
ture." lis comparatively seldom that we
come across novel in which the ordinary
events of everyday life are told with in
terest. The novelist of to-day tries TO
follow the French school of realism
to give MS novelty and invention in plot !;
strange Incidents; or the hero or heroine
must go through some frigbtful mental
struggle; the! one idea seems to be that
unless they can produce some startling
effect in the story, or violent emotions in
tho part of the different characters, they
are lacking in originality aud imagina-
tion.
In the last few years we have bad mum
erous iranslations of Italian romances, but.
with very few exceptions, they follow i'm
the wake of the American, English and
French novel; while Germany, which
averages more publications than Amer
lea, England and France together give us
more than any other nation what we
would call the good old fashioned romance,
1t is with sigh of relief that we turn to
"Magdalen's Fortunes" knowing that it is
tale of domestic life, like Mr.. Heimburr's
other works: "Two Daughters of one
Race" 'Lora,n etc. The scene is laid in
one of the provincial towns OF Germany.
Magdalon, the heroine, Is dependent upon
the bounty of rich relations, leading an un-
happy life until her marriage /, tho heir of
the house. The plot is similar TO many of the
German TRANSACTIONS now published, but it
is the simple, pure and distinct manner
in which the story is told that forms the
chief attraction, II is not by any means
without faults, for Magdalen tells the tale
in her own words and in order to de-
scribe to the reader the different situations,
the author has made the heroine listen be-
hind many windows and curtains in what
we would call not a strictly honorable
manner. However, this is only minor
detail III an otherwise well constructed plot.

The Lone Hunter.

General Hastings announces himself
~ 4 candidate .fcT the Republican nomi-
nation for governor upon his personal
merit, declaring himself to be the friend
Of all the Republican chieftains and
would-be chieftains, and the ally of
none. He puts himself out as playing a
lone hand in the game with a fervent
anection for Quay, whom he declines
TO believe to be against him, and a
calm regard for Magee, whom he re-
fuses to consider as his CHAMPION.
1t is true, he says, that he went to
Magee's lair in Pittsburg the other day
when he was there but he was dragged
out Of bed to go TO the meeting, and did
not do anything when he was there but
shake lot of hands which ought to
be meritorious and proper occupation
for Republican candidate all the time.

The Negro South,

Mr.. Henry w. Grady who helped
Mr.. Cleveland to enlighten the Boston
merchants on Thursday evening, upon
things political, gave them some ideas
upon the negro question which probably
were novel to -theua- 1t -is the -AAa+l,lt-
In the Northern country to think of the
Southern negro as still the chattel
possession Of the Southern white man,
who prevents him from casting the free
vote that would establish Republican
supremacy in the South. The North
ern Republican cannot conceive
that the Southern negro would vote
anything but the Republican ticket if
he had his own way about it and
great outcry is made about the suppress
sion and intimidation of the Southern
negro vote.
Mr.. Grady meets these views with
some OF Mr.. Gradgrind's hard facts. He
shows that the vote in the South
comes out in elections more fully
than at the North, and that
Georgia polls bigger percentage of It's
possible vote than Massachusetts,.
He shows also that the South
ern negro is well treated, well
employed and prosperous; that the
Georgia negroes are assessed for twenty
millions of property and that they are
busily engaged on their own account in
business ventures, or employed at good
wages In manufactures or agriculture
that they are content with their gov
crnment and see no inducement in the
miserably attenuated state of the South
ern white Republican to help him to up
Get th e more substantial Democracy.

Dangerous Electric Wires.

The Injunction which was lately OBJ
tained by the Electric Light and Power
companies Of New York city, restrain
ing the city from cutting down their
poles and removing their wires, when
they were found In an unsafe condition,
has been dissolved by the supreme
court, in an opinion which declares that
II h the right and duty Of the city to
remove oil dangerous wires as common
nuisances. The companies, claim that
such destruction Of their wires is an in
vssion of their rights of property is said
Ia the opinion to proceed on the as
sumption that nothing has right to
exist except themselves
This exposition Of the law Is nothing
more than declaration Of 1t as it has
theoretically existed ever since the law
has reigned. That which is more dan
gerous TO life and property than
II can bc made by reasonable care is a
nuisance which the law abates. But in
these days of carelessness Of life, when
II Is thought by many to be n mark of
progress to take up every new advice
+ that may shorten by moment or
cheaper by a cent any art of man, the
fact is forgotten that the law requires
every movement to be made with o
proper regard for the safety of life and
property, which are the rights guaran-
teed to man by his civilization. Com
pAnies start up with great promises Of
doing great things and obtain corporate
powers, which in their hands are reck-
leasly used to destroy life and to oppress
people. In their grasping greed they
think only of the means they can use to
Nil their pockets.
The new and great uses found for
electricity have erected II, Is in the hands
Of these unscrupulous people, into very
threatening danger to the public inter-
ests and have made it imperative that
there should be strict control estab-
Iished by the law over the generation of
the power; just as there is over that of
steam, which preceded 1t as the great
natural force harnessed to the works OF
man. Electricity doubtless can be
made as reasonably safe in its use as
steam has become but now 1t is a
horror to all the people, who know not
when death and destruction will not
come to them by its wires.
I These wires New York to-day is de-
stroying and If this is the need of a
great city where the electric power Is
largely used, the question may well
come up to the smaller towns of the
country, whether 1t will not be wise fol
(, them to halt in introducing upon theil
streets these wires, until their need shal
be more pressing and the mode of theil
use be made more safe. Our own city
authorities are now proposing to make
grant for the use of the electric power
upon street car propulsion neet
which certainly now is not very great
Wisdom seems to demand that they
shall postpone the grant of permission
for these overhead electric wires
until further safety can be guar
anteed in their use or that pro
viso should a. least be inserted in the
grant, reserving the right to the city tc
recall the grant If it should hereafter
seem to 1t to be dangerous Though
this right may be reserved to the city
by the law, it should be distinctly stated
that its enforcement may not be com

veloped in Madison, Wis. About month
ago diphtheria appeared in the home of
prominent family. ii young domestic was
terribly frightened, and desired to go to
her home In the country, but the attending
physician would not permit this. A young
child died of the dread disease, and this,
with the horror of disease, caused the girl
to take to her bed, and she apparently,
died in few hours, and was at once buried
by the authorities. A few days ago her
parents obtained permission TO remove tho
body to the country, and upon opening the
casket they were horrfied to discover that
the body was lying on its face, the hair
wrenched from the head and the flesh
literally to rn from the face and hands.

THE thrifty New York sausage maker,
who has been using horse meat so extern
sively in his factory, was visited by a com
mittee of the board of health on Friday.
He ate piece of raw horse meat to satisfy
the committee that no was sincere in prais
ing horse as dclicacy, and he warmly
protested that If people could see some Of
the bologna sausage made at slaughter
houses, they would much prefer horse
flesh. There does not seem TO be any
better reason against the uso of horse az
food than the fact that tho horse Is much too
valuable and noble an animal to be slaugh-
tered for the purpose while the available
horse meat would be that of tough old
worthless horses and suitable only for
sausage factories. People of besieged
cities have learned to appreciate horse
and dog meat and when Paris was
beseiged by the Germans New Year gifts

exchanged by the fastidious Parisians.
