Why He Was Proud.

Two negro vagabonds, who have been up
before the justice innumerabls times, hap
pened to meet in the corridor of the court

in the air, and put on a great deal of style.
The other was in custody of policeman.

Claim no More than Your Dues.

1t is not easy to be just with ourselves.
When men prosper and succeed they are
blinded by sense of personal pride and are
quite ready to appropriate the full measure
of praise that may be bestowed on them
selves or their work. l have won the race,
earned the crown. and it is mine.
When men fail and fall into trouble they
readily account for it by circumstances,
treacherOus or greedy men-by the general
bad make up and misadjustment of the
world. The fault is all somewhere else.
Both these judgments are entirely unjust.
The favored man has, cOnspiring with
his own worthy aims and industry. many
conditions, providential helps, that are no
merit of his own. If the man of ILL fortune
would manfully own his own defects and
correct them. he would do his own soul val
liable service and lay the foundation of i'm
prov ement Reduced to rule of moral book
keeping. we may say: Do not credit yourself
with all the coed accomplished not
charge TO others all the evil done.

Establish a School.

If only small portion of the practical
methods advanced for the reformation of
the criminal would be put into operation in
the penal institutions of this country. I
think that prison managers would need no
further suggestions for the government of
their prisons for the next decade of years;
and the members of our prison congress and
other organizations that have been estab-
lished, for the sole purpose of aiding them
in their work. could devote their time and
talents in other channels. The fundamental
principles of how to bring about the de-
sired reformation, or how to attain the best
results in the management of criminals are
we'll known and established facts; but the,
great trouble seems to- be. they are not in
troduced into the daily life of the criminal.
For instance: What is the use of handing
me catalogue of the contents of very ex-
tensive library, when l lack the common
rudiments of an education? And how, +
ask, am going to explore the vast treas
ures of knowledge? Before can read the
lives of great men; the great works of fic-
ton; the marvellous discoveries of science;
and the history of all known lands on the face
OF the EARTH must go through the form of
common education. And [ sincerely hope
that 1t won't be great while before that
long anticipated plan. of establishing
school in this institution, will be put into
practical operation. Now. that the short
working days are with us, l think it is a
good time to give the plan trial. We
have some amongst us who appear to have
the necessary qualifications to assume the
role OF instructors; and a school once started
then the many books that have been laid
away on the shelves would once more be
brought into requisition. ARIoN.

Breaks the Bars.

An opinion was handed down in the state
supreme court, at Tacoma. WASH, on
Nov. 81. says The Pioneer Press,
which will result in the release of about
fifty prisoners from the pententiary in that
state. 1t was in the case of j. c. McCar-
thy. charged with grand larceny. The
crime was committed Oct. Is. 1889. and the
state constitution went into effect Nov. II.
Mccarthy was tried by information in the
superior court at Tacoma as provided by
the state law. The case was appealed.
The opinion holds that it was illegal, as
state law cannot be retroactive and that he
should have been tried by grand jury as
provided by the territorial laws which were
in effect when the crime was committed.
All the criminals convicted under the state
law for crimes committed before the con-
stitutiOn went into effect will be released.

In all the scare talk about the warlike
actions of the Indians we have not heard
of one white person being injured by them.
If the Indians were one half so unprinciped
as some of the whites who hang upon their
borders waiting for good chance to con-
fistcate their reservations it might be a
good and just thing for the government to
kill the whole lot. but they are not. If the
Indian wants to dance why not let him
dance until he is tired. The white man
dances when he feels like it and no one
thinks he designes them any harm by it,

Wants to Settle It.

The mandamus proceeding of Super intenGent of Public Instruction Chey-
 ney, against Treasurer Smith, t : compel
 payment of warrant for S1 ,144.42, came up before the Supreme court this morn ing. Attorney-General Churchill and
 Jud ge Ainswcrth presented what they considered statement of facts in
 the case. This did not prove satisfacto- " to Hon. Ben Goodrich, who complain ed that the Democratic position received
 no mention therein. After considerable fruitless discussion, Chief Justice Wright said the case, as we'll as that of
 the Attorney General, would be taken
 up anyhow at 1:30 this afternoon.
 The Chief Justice stated that the court consider. all these proceedings
 a means to settle the long dispute be-
 tween the Wolfiey and Zulick appointees, and to pass upon the validity of the Gp- propriation act of last spring. It was a
 matter of great public interest, and therefore, the court was anxious to dis
 pose of itIon its merits.
 The trouble with the lawyers seemed to be fear that one side or the other might admit too much. But the Chief Justice assured them that TO admission of law proposition would influence the courts decision, and It certainly must
 be simple matter to agree upon the facts that were matters of history. He
 rather disapproved the unwillingness of
 one side to admit any action whatever on the part of MT. Strauss, as democrat
 ic claimant to MT. Cheyney's office, and
 assured counsel that such admission
 could not affect the merits of question
 involving the lawful title thereto.
 The Supreme Court has undoubtedly
 manifested disposition to do all in its
 power to remove any doubts now exist ing as to the legality of territorial.officers and measures.-Phenix Herald.

4 Low Job.

If Washington dispatch this week is correct, one c. W. Wright ought to be in better business than that of trying to defeat Judge Sloan's appointment by such methods as the former employs. His main object, as stated to Senator Edmunds, was the judge's alleged poor health. He added that Sloan had very few opportunities, being a young man whs has lived in remote towns in the Territory. lie said further that his Zap continent was secured by land grant interests.
 Judge Sloan seemed to survive the Wham trial and holds pretty firm seat in the Supreme Court now in session here. If he had but few opportunities, his spresent judicial ability is all the more creditable.
 Wright was once surveyor general of Colorado, and is defeated candidate for Judgo Slo&n's position. He has been about six months in this Territory.

4 Gid Relic.

An interesting survival of the Great American Desert of nearly half a cen sary ago Was enccG tered by a Herald man at Phenix last week. From 1Sz4 to 1o5i Mr j. E. Eerguson, now a mer- chant in Fl Paso, conducted large prairie schooner, mule moter freight Ius izess between tie Missouri river, Santa Fe aLd Chihuahua, C,i Mexico.
 He had 10 isit Inlial5 5s-y lay for weeks ct time. The Apaohes were most troublesome, although then only one of them out of every 20 had a gun. Bows and arrows were frequent enough. h enc engagement Mr. Ferguson receiv- ed three red-skin darts in his body, and his horse get four more.
 The constant watchfulness required to prevent stock stealing and Indian surprises while traversing the vast plains, developed in him a sort of trance state, so that, although asleep, he could hear every sound. A somnial conscious ness was cultivated, and he could recog- nize in his slumher, the least kick of a mule, or dogs bark,or the stealthy ap- proach of an Apache. Yet he rested as completely as though sound asleep.
 MT. Ferguson passed through Salt River in the early seventies, when no canals called perennial verdure into being, and only one or two rude adobes indicated a possibility of human existence here. Our present Capital and fertile surroundings afforded an agreeable and wonderful contrast to NIT. Ferguson's first visit. He will come again.

For La Grippe.

From different European newspapers and periodicals, which received yester- day, dated December 25th. and 18th, it appears that ia grippe" or influenza has played serious havoc in some of the large cities, especially at St. Petersburg Vienna and Paris, attacking high and low, rich and poor, and even causing many deaths, not of itself, but after turning into pneumonia, and in some cases, strangely enough into a violent diarrhea, The following prescriptions are given, which have proved most bene- ficial in the severest cases treated in the hospitals of St. Petersburg:
 After the usual taxation rub the body thoroughly with this ointment twice a day Linimentum Sagonati,215 oz. Mixtura oleos bals, OF. Chloroform, ? drach.
