Harder Than Flint.

Last week the state geologist received by express peculiar stone, in general forma ton rather porous, but harder than any thing in the museum. It was cut open by a skillful lapidary and subjected to various tests, when it was discovered to be one of these sponge tips to a mucilage bottle, war ranted to keep perfectly soft and moist and always ready for use. sent it to the geolo- gist "oursef." They are handy things. When you can't get the mucilage to run through thenl-which is on the morning of the third day-you can use them to cut glass with. And if you stick hickory handle ir them before they petrify they make the best stone hammers you ever hit powder with -Burdette in Brooklyn Eagle.

Mat. MeCabe, of New Brunswick, H., offers to pay five dollars to any person troubled with bloody Aux, who will take Chamberlain Collie Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy according to directions and does not get well in the shortest possible time. One half of % cent bottle of this remedy cured him of bloody Aux, after he had tried other medicines and the pre- scriptions of physicians without bene- fit. Mc. McCabe is perfectly safe in making this offer, as more than a thousand bottles of this remedy are sold each day and it has never been known to fail in any case of collie cholera morbus, dysentery, diarrhoes or bloody Aux, when the plain printed directions were followed For sale by Thos.

TIE mill of the Lela mining com pany, in the Casa Grande district, Is now running and the result will be watched with peculiar interest from the fact that its management has stated that the expensive plant was erected merely to test the working qualities of the ore prior to the erec- ton of larger mill. It is hoped that everything will turn out satisfactorily and that another producing property will be added to the long list of Pi- nal county's paying mines.

THE Washington correspondent of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat sends out the following startling piece of news under date of September 10th:
 Hon. John Weir, of Tucson, Ari- zona, is in the city to urge q settle ment of difficulty that Is just now puzzling Gov. Woliley. The Demo- cratic local officials who are still draw ing salaries insist that their successors can not be appointed by the Governor until the Territorial Legislature meets to confirm them. Hence they pro pose to remain in office. Gov. Wolf lev wants to know if there Is not sufli- cieut Federal authority which may be exercised to cause the imm ediate re- tirement of his Democratic Subordl- mates. Mir. Weir submitted the mat ter to Secretary Noble and Attorney General Miller to-day, and together they called upon the President. Since Arizona Is still a Territory of the | United States the Attorney General | decides that the Governor may sum marily remove his subordinates and appoint their successors at once, and that their combinations may await the assembling ot the Territorial Leg islature.
 If this statement be true, and it' source for5ids any other supposltlon the Attorney General has either beer deceived in regard to the statutes 0 Arizona upon this subject, or he as sumes an autocratic power that, permitted to prevail, will rob the Ter ritorics of the last vestige of autonom, given them by the national congress The appointive offices of our Territor
 were created by the Territorial Legis lature and the tenure of the appolr
 tees fixed by the same statute. Tn
 executive is given the power of r'
 moval for cause only, and as he Ina
 sworn to faithfully execute the law
 he is not in a position to ignore then even upon the expressed opinion the Attorney General of the Unite States. It is quite evident that NJ Miller's partisan bias has warped Il
 judgment and that he regards tt ;. disfranchiscd frontiersmen of the Te ritories as his special wards, muC
 after the relations of the reservatiC Indians to the Interior Department.

WE are among the strongest advo

 WE are among the strongest advo- cates of the home rule policy as relat- ing to the territories, and yet we have had occasion since its adoption by the present administration to serious y question it's wisdom. So far as Arl- zona is concerned the policy cannot be regarded as a complete success, which fact may be owing, however, to causes for which the policy is in no way responsible. It has succeeded ad- mirably in utterly disrupting the dom- inant party without the remotest pos sibility of restoring harmony, and 1t has created political and personal dis trust that bodes no good for its future supremacy in any contest with an united opposition. The fact that it is met with equally formidable dis | s.nsious in the ranks of the democrat ic party signifies nothing and cannot 1 justify the present deplorable state oi affairs. Mistakes-nay, even blunders have been made that every sound republican secretly regrets even while assuming an outward air of content ment or indifference, and all partisan enthusiasm has departed. The found ation of all this was first laid in tho bit CT stlife for political preferment and the breach has been widened by apparently the most studious efforts of those who alone possessed th' D lwer of complete reconciliation. Tn opportunity to apply the remedy ha plssed and while regrets are useles there is not the faintest tint upon tn horizon that a rainbow Of hope exist among the clouds of gloom. Poo jud gment, selfshness, bad advice an unyielding stubbornness are anon the potent elements that oppose tn z best interests of both party and pe' pie, and while such an oppressiS combination exists the burden is fa too heavy for the party to carry an survive.
