CoNsIDEnABLE talk is being indulged
 in by some parties about the great service Wolfiey has done Arizona in
 procuring an appropriation for an ex- perimenial agricultural station. It is likely our misfit executive started this beautiful little romance on it's travels, and considering the great deference he has alway paid the truth on several occasions, this latest little yarn may be viewed with considerable suspicion.

The first agricultural experiment station, according to Prof. ". 0. At
 water of the. United States Depart mont of Agriculture, was established
 ct little German village near Ieipsic in 1851. In 1856 there were five, in 1861 fifteen, in 1866 thirty. and to- day there are more than one hrndred, experiment stations and kindred insti- tutions in the countries of Europe. The first agricultural experiment. sta tinn in America was established at Middleton, Ct.. in 1875. There were four in operation in 1880. and in 1887 some seventeen. in fourteen States In the latter year Congress made. the en- terprise national by an appropriation of $l5,OOO per annum to each of the states and territories having agricnl- tural colleges or departments of col leges. This has led to increased &C., tivity, and there are now forty-six, or, counting branches, iiity-seven, agri- cultural experiment. stations in the United States. ITO support these forty six stations, the National and State appropriations &ior the present year reach about N20, 900, and over 370l trained men are employed.

How ss.O0S Pounds was Made a Hsrse Power


 When men begin first to become familiar with the methods Oi ineasur- ing mechanical power, they often speculate on where the breed of horses Is to be found which can keep at work raising 5000 pounds one foot per minute, or the equivalent, which is familiar to men accustomed to pile driving by horse power, of raising 330 pounds 100 feet per minute. Since 33,O00 pounds raised onr foot per minute is called one horse power, it is natural for people to thirs that the engineers who established that unit of measurement based it on the actual work performed by horses. But that was not the case. The horse power unit was established by James Watt about century ago; and the figure wss settled in 1 curious way. Watt, in his usual careful manner, proceeded to find out the average work which the horses of his district could per form, and he found that the raising of 22,0OO pounds one foot per minute was about an actual horse power. At this time he was employed in the manufacture of engines, and had al. most monopoly of the engine build ing trade. Customers were 50 hard to find that all kinds of artificial en. couraSements were considered necess sry to induce power users to buy steam engines, As . method of en. couraging business, Watt offered to sell engines reckoning 3S,OOO foot pounds to horse power, or one-third more than the actual. And thus, says the Manufacturers Gazette, what was intended as g temporary expedient to promote business has been the means of giving false unit of . very i'm portant measurement to the world.- Mining Industry, Denver, Colorado.

IT may be little soon 10 begin talking about politics and the election next year, but toa large number of our people, who are deeply immersed in business affairs, time slips rapidly away, and almost before they realize it another election campaign will be upon us. For this reason, the EPITAPH does not think it is speaking any too early when it ventures to make sug. gestion. As is known of all men, for it has been widely published and con,- mented on, our taxes have reached point where they have become onerous and hard to bear. Such high taxation, besides being a heavy burden on our citizens, acts as most effeotual bar to progress and the development of the many resources of our county, for people in search of opportunities to invest money, or those who are in search of a place in which to make 2 home, will not. except in rare in- stances, invest or settle in country where the rate of taxation is equal to what is considered a fair rate of in- terest; and if such a high rate is maintained it will cause many of our citizens to close out their business and remove to localities that are not % heavily handicapped. The suggestion we have to make is that taxpayers' association be formed, irrespective of politics, to take an active interest in the next election. It is not any too soon to begin the formation of such an organization, for when the work is be- gun it will be found that there will be many difficulties to contend with and overcome. In order to do effective work it should be in good working order some two or three months be. fore the election, and therefore it is suggested that it is desirable that the work of organizing such an organiza- tion should begin at once. Such movements have produced good re. suits in other communities. and if rightly and intelligently managed here the same ends would be attained.

ACCORDING to a communication in the Albuquerque Citizen, school mat ters in Apache county are in n very bad fix. The Citizen correspondent states that teacher cannot get em- ployment in that county unless he or she is Mormon, and cites many in. stances to prove the assertion. It ie also stated that some of the teachers employed, besides heinz unqualified to fill such position, are guilty of sc. tions that have driven many young ladies from school. The Albuquerque Citizen is reputable newspaper, and it is not to be supposed that it would publish such a communication unless 1t was entirely satisfied of the truth fulness of its correspondent. If we have Territorial Superintendent of Public Instruction, which. in our pres snt muddled condition of sfiairs no one can find out, here is a chance for him to do something. The matter should be investigated, and If the ac- cusatiOn should be found to be true those Mormons should be given such general shaking up that would for ever deter them from meddling with the schools.
