BETTER THAN GOLD.

Better than grandeur, better than gold,
Than ranks and titles thousand fold.
Is healthy body and mind at ease,
And simple pleasures that always please;
heart that can feel for another's woe.
And share its joys with genial glow,
With sympathies large enough TO enfold,
All men as brothers, is better than gold.
Better than gold is a conscience clear
Though toll for bread in an humble sphere,
Doubly blessed with content and health,
Untired by the lusts or cares of wealth;
Lowly living and lofty thought
Adorn and ennoble poor mans cot
For mind and morals in natures plan
Are the genuine tests ofa gentleman.
Better than gold is the sweet rep0se
ofthe sons Of toll when their lsbors close;
Better than gold is the poor mans sleep
The balm that drops in his slumber deep,
Bring sleepy draugh,s to the downy bed
Where luxury pillows its aching head,
But he hi, simple opiate deems
A shorter route to the laad Of dreams.
Better than gold Is the thinking mind,
That in the realm Of books caa iind
\ treasure surprising Australian orr,
And live with the great and good OF yore!
The sage's lore and poets lay,
The glories Of empire pass away;
The worlds great dream viii thus cnfold
Aud yield pleasure better than gold
Better than gold Is a peaceful home,
when all the flreside characters come.
The shrine Of love, the heaven of life,
UaIlowed by mother. or sister. OF wife;
However humble the home may Be.
or urcd with sorrow hy heavens decree,
The blessings that never were bought or sol'
And centre there. are better than gold.

Wyoming Cattlemen JubiIent.

The case of the United States against the Douglass William Cattle Company, charged with illegality in fencing government land within the twenty mile railroad limit, was decided this week by the supreme court of Woyoming in favor of the defendants. The Douglass Willal. company are owners of largt amount of land purchased from tho Union Pacific railroad company it. sections alternating with like sec tions ofgovernment lald. In fenc- ing their lands they inclosed all equal quantity of government land, in which they had no ownership or claim. The law of 1886 declares such fencing illegal and suits to compel removal of the fences were begun by the United State in 1887.
 The court holds that when the government becomes a party to contract between itself and it's citi- zcns 1t divests itself of sovereignty in respect to the terms and condi- tions of the contract, and stands in the same position with reference to the contract as a private individual. Having, in the case under consid- eration, sold to individuals and the fencing of which inclosss gov ernment land, the government can- not but compel these individuals to destroy their fencing to afford egress and ingress to the government land thus inclosed, Over 300,000 acres of land are thus inGlosed in Wyo- ming by purchasers of railroad lands, and the present decision caused much rejoicing among large landowners. George w. Baxter, who has over 10000 acres thus en- closed, was removed from the gov ernorship of Wyoming four weeks after his appointment by ex-Presi- dent Cleveland for violating the law which is now decided unconsti- tutional.
 New Mexico ranchmen are inter- ested in this decision.-EX.

"White Apache" Dead.

Streeter, better known as the "Whlte Apache" was shot and kill ed near Nacosari last week by a young senorita to whom Streeter was known in Tombstone, where he was treated a few years ago for a broken leg. His brother, who is much younger than himself, has made Tombstone many visits from that section. Both of the Streeters brothers were born in Santa Bar bara, Cal, where their father still lives. What the "Whita Apache" knew of the devilment committed by the Indians of the Apache tribe would fill large volume. He has for twenty years lived with them, known their secrets and taken part in their escapes from justice. In their future raids into Sonora the Apaches will not have this faith full ally to rely upon for assistance. -Prospector

Getting Around the Alien Act.

The simple ingenious, straighttor- ward way that the Lady Franklin Company has adopted to get around the difficulty raised by the dema- gogic alien law, which tried to pre- vent our miners from seeing the aid of foreign capital by refusing to allow foreigners to acquire title 10 mining properties, will doubtless be followed by other mine-owners who want to place their mines abroad. The man wishing to dis pose of his properties will until this section of the alien law is repealed, instead of selling outright, give a lease on his property for long term of years, at a rental of $1 per year, while a real consideration will be paid him just in same way it would have been paid fine he had sold it outright. This appears to be an extremely simple way of get ting around this clause of the alien law, which has already proved de- trimental to our mine owners. Far better, though than getting around the difficulty, even in this simple way, would be the repeal of this obnoxious section of the law. Calls for it's repeal have been he trd from all the mining regions of the West since it's passage, and it is to be trusted that itmay be removed from the statute books.-Sierra County (N. NJ. Advocate.

Bitten by a Rabid Coyote.

This morning James Taylor, who keeps a little store at the mouth of Tijeras canon about 15 miles east of this city, came into town on a fast horse to secure a surgeon to bind up the wounds of a man named Connolly and his two sons, who were yesterday afternoon attacked by a rabid wolf and lacerated in a frightful manner.
 Mir. Taylor secured Dr. Raster of the Atlantic x Pacific hospital, who left this morning at an early hour to minister to the sufferers.
 MT. Taylor says Mir. Connolly lives on a small ranch in Tieras canon. His two little boys were playing among the granite powders covering the side of canon when they were attacked by large and rabid coyote wolf. The cries of the children drew the attention of the father, who at once rushed to the rescue. Before MT. Connolly suc- ceeded in killing off the wolf both the children were severely bitten in several places, and one of the boys was delirious last night. Mir. Con- nelly is bitten in the right, arm and is suffering great pain from the wound.-Albuquerque Citizen.

The M0nteZuma Wells.

Probably one of the most interest ing relics of the prehistoric race that densely populated central Ari
 zona is the Montezuma Wells, on Beaver creek, thirteen miles north east of Camp Verde. The buried cities and ruins of the Salt River valley are of more interest to the historian and day-dreamer, but
 hey scarcely equal, in testimony, the large quantities of broken pot tery that mark the sites of once pop ulous districts on the mesas ten or fifteen miles beyond the water car ried by the most advanced of our modern irrigating ditches. But the Montezuma Wells calls for less ex- ertion of the imagination. An al- most circular hill that would not cover a forty y-acre field rises to the height of about 100 feet on the north bank of Beaver creek. At the top is a perfectly round hole, probably 300 feet in diameter, with perpendicular walls of about fifty feet that descend to a body of clear water that assumes a black hue as you look down into it's unfathom- able depths-absolutely unfathom- able because bubbles come up for an hour from descending stones that visitors throw into it's depths. An opening, whether artificial or natural is unknown, permits the surplus water 10 run out under a natural bridge, forty feet wide, in- to the creek or a modren irrrigating ditch which utilitarian has led over a lovely little homestead, thus securing m unvarying water sup ply. In the perpendicular walls are houses of stone built by that mysterious people of whose his tory we know nothing, that prehis toric race that has left no posterity. On top of the bridge between the Wells and the creek are remains of demolished forts or houses of more massive structure than those that indent the walls. The Wells are of volcanic origin, and the waters is a trifle warm. There are probably hundreds-perhaps thousands-of square miles in body in Arizona in the great unknown region be- yond the Grand Canyon upon which no white man has set foot. What are its mysteries?-Ex.

As there seems to be much mis- apprehension about the condition of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad tax cases, we have informed our selves from reliable sources as to their status, and find that 10 be as follows:
 The Supreme Court decided that the Apache case was brought to a special term ofth court, and should have been instituted at term of court named in the statutes, that is, the July term.
 That case will have to be brought over at the next regular term of court.
 The Yavapai and MOhaYe cases were, by the opinion of the cases as published, sent back to the District Courts to have judgments entered against the railroad conformably to the opinion.
 But at the June term of the Su- preme Court, that opinion in part was repudiatcd, and judgment was rendered by the Supreme Court against the railroad for the taxes on inc railroad proper, and that against the lands was reversed, be- cause they were unsurveyed.
 The attorneys for the counties did not contend for the taxes on the unsurveyed lands. Yavapal county has compromised with the railroad at the rate of fifty cents on dollar for the taxes of 1SS7-SS.

InceGdiareS at Work

Portland, Or, June 22.-There were two fires during the night, both undoubtedly the work of an incendiary. At I o'clock last night a watchman discovered a fire in the old abandoned Catholic church, a half mile from business center. He gave the alarm and the city and garrison fire departments respond ed, but could not save the building. At 1 30 tie fremen citizens went home. Shortly before ? o'clock the same watch discovered flames breaking out from the rear of Mey- CTS & Petros's bakery on the east side of Main street, near Fourth. The fire spread rapidly among the frame buildings and was soon be- yond the control of the fremen. The loss falls principally upon the small tradesmen, who lost their all. A number of people are left desti- ute, but it is thought that outside help will not be needed.
 Portland, June 22.-The latest news from Vancouver places the estimated loss by lire at S55,000. The insurance will not exceed $15,- GOO. The space swept by the fire will cover four acres. There were but few insurance risks in burnt district held by Oregon companies, or by companies represented in Portland. A special meeting of the city council was held this even- ing and six extra policemen were ordered to be put on duty. A mass meeting of citizens will be held Monday to consider measures for the future safety and welfare of the city. Steps will be taken at once to rid the city of all suspicious characters,
