Too Much Gos.Ip.
Alhnnnerone Democrat


 There is nothing so injurious to any community as the retailing of gossip. It hurts both those who talk and those who are talked about. No home can be SO pure that its sanctity may not be invaded. No character may be so spotless that re- tailers of filth may not smirch 1t. From listening to with pleasure and repeating with greed the salicious stories which are told, the scandal monger comes to exer- cising his own inventive genius, till the putrescent appetite, growing by that up on which it feeds, passes beyond bounds, and the gossiper, rather than be deprived of the pleasure of telling new tales of filth will deliberately and wantonly lie about those whom he knows to be above the breath of suspicion.
 A lascivious islander once started is never permitted to die. There are too many to roll 1t as sweet morsel under their tongues. Hence it goes on its de struotive way, the poor victim meanwhile totally upawares of the damage which is being done.
 The prevalence of such gossip IS one of the features of the west. Why 1t should be so would require a longer dissertation than can at present be afforded. What ever the reason, the fact cannot be de nied. A stranger having but little to do other than listen to the gossip of west ern town, would soon be convinced that in that town honor among men and yir- tue among women had no existence.
 To make the matter worse, the gossip mongers are more frequently men than women. This is also a western feature. It is shame. It is state of morals that calls for redress. The remedy lies in letting gossip alone. Every man, wom- an and child should eschew it. It should no more be permitted to enter the ear or to pass the lips than would a dose of the most deadly prussic acid. The times are ripe for reformation in this particu-

An Arizona Show

The Auckland N. z. News. of Septem- Der 24th, gives the following account of the Wild West show, to which Charles Meadows, the well-known cowboy of this county is attached:
 "A cowboy race was won by Charles Meadows. Then came what the audience was waiting for-the Wild West show, and when it was annouced by MT. Ogden, there was aspell expectation, but it was not of long duration. Captain Jack Sut- ton assumed command and led in his peo- pie to the Virginia Reel, and dance to the Arkansaw Traveller. The mastery of bucking horses was very cleverly shown by the cowboys, and their lassoing, ex- pert riding and trailing were admirable. The Indian war dance, we think, might be omitted. The attack on the emigrant wagon, the hanging of the horse thief, the attack on the United States mail coach, and others features, are thorough ly characteristic, and the attack on a hunters cabin in the Rocky Mountains is painfully realistic. The chief feature of the Wild West show is no doubt the thorough command they have acquired over horses in general, and their wonder f4l skill, as in their feats of lassoing, pick ing up objects, etc., is thoroughly delin- eated, and perhaps one of the principal features last night was the double pick ing up act by Charles Meadows and Jack Brown, both on one horse, and both pick ing up objects at each side of the horse"

DEFIANT INDIANS.
Preparing to Go on the War Path Again-.- Expecting Their Messiah to Lead
 Them.

A Minneapolis, Minn., dispatch of November 18th says: The Tribune's Mandan, N. D., special says: ''Settlers liv ing on the border of the Sion, reserva- tion bring stories of the a-lling of In dians, which is borne out by Joseph Buckley, who speaks their language.
 Buckley came in to-day and says every Indian on the reservation will shortly go on the warpath, and they have got posses sion of Clusters rifles, which thes United States army never found. Local hard ware men have in the last few days sold their entire stock of ammunition to the 1n- dians.
 The Indians say if they are unsuccess- ful in the raid they will get double rations and they have nothing to lose.
 Citizenshere and settlers who are un- protected, believe General Ruger and h. dian authorities are harboring feeling Of false security. The Mayor of Mandan has called meeting and the War Department will be asked to furnish citizens with guns, if not with soldiers.
 Many settlers between Mandan and the reservation are abandoning thelr farms and ranches because of lack of protection afforded them by the Government. The most conservative look gloomy at the out look. The Indians appear to be becom- ing more and more crazed over the Messiah story and serious trouble is anticipated at the agency over the coming ghost dance. The agent has endeavored to induce them to foregO it, but they are defiant and re- fuse to obey his orders.
 A woman was brought before the agency at Standing Rock a few days ago, whom the Indians said was the mother of the Messiah. The agent interrogated her, but got no satisfaction as to the identity or who is to be the Messiah, she content ! ing herself with repeating stories of the millennium to come and how the white people would be wiped out entirely.
 Several of the leading Sioux chiefs seem to be as firm believers in the story as the young bucks.

British Capital in Mexico.
Mexican FinancIer.


 In recent issues we have noted the or ganization of number of new British companies for mining and other opera tions here, and if, during the remaining weeks of the year. the same proportion of companies should be formed for business in this country, the list of British Amer ican companies will be as long as that of 1889. British capital seeking investment here flows in two channels, mining under takings and land purchases. It would not be surprising, however, if following the example of many firms in the United States, some mercantile and manufactUr- ing concern here should recognize as as stock companies of limited liability. British capital being invested therein There are undoubtedly some excellent op- portunities for this sort of investment which have as yet not attracted the at tenti0n of the industrious and ingenious promoters of companies, It is to be borne in mind, by any one studying the growth of British capital entering Mex ican investments, that the formation of new companies does not indicate with precision the real amount of capital placed here. A great deal of money comes over the ocean for private invest ment and never receives mention in the public journals. If the favorable opinion entertained of Mexico in England con tinues, and we see no reason for the slightest abatement of the confidence of the British investor in this country, the total British stake" in Mexico will, in a very few years, equal the amounts placed by the same bold and successful nation in Chile and Brazil. There are two ad- vantages which Mexico has to offer to the British investor, and these are mat ters which. by tradition and experience, he is inclined to regard with a high degree of favor; we refer to Mexico's metallic currency and her strong law enforcing Government. Another point which has not escaped the attention of the English people is the neighborhood of Mexico to tremendous country like the United States, which to-day offers this country the best market for tropical products on the globe. Ten years from now, when the 64,000000 inhabitants of the Great Republic shall have grown to 85000000, the resources of Mexico will have to be thoroughly developed to meet the demands of the Northern market. The Anglo-Saxon across the Atlantic is largely investing its capital here because it believes that Mexico will share in the prosperity of the Anglo-Saxon nation this side of the ocean.

To Get Rid of Ants.

I took about half saucer of molasses, and to this l added about a tablespoonful of Paris green; and having stirred well, placed one in the cellar-way and another down-cellar; and any time for a week or two, don't remember just how long, if you went 10 those saucers, you would see the shelves nearly black with them coming and going. Weleft them there until there were no signs of any ants around them. We never found one dead ant. and it has been four years next month since l fed them on molasses and Paris green; yet, strange as it may seem, we never have seen one in the house since. l will say further that our house is an old one, and had been overrun with them for years. Care should be taken to keep all eataoles out of the way. They disappeared from all parts of the house before they did around the saucers. This has been my experience with ants and if they ever re- turn. they will be fed the same as before. Maine Farmer.

Visit the Schools
Yuma Sentinel.


 How many of the fathers and mothers of the school children in Yuma ever visit our schools? What do they know about what their children are taught, no matter whether in the public school, in private, or in Catholic schools? They seem to take it for granted that 'it is all right" No sir, no ma'am. It is not right You are wrong How many fathers and motLers in Yuma kloy just what their children are taught? Do they know what their children are doing? Why does not each father and mother visit the school every month, just drop in and see what teacher and pupil are doing, day by day? Go in at odd times. Drop in the school at recess, at noon, dur ing study hours, if only for five minutes, and sec how the little mill, that is grind ing map and women for future Governors and Presidents, is running. See to it, that the man and woman, who teaches them. is capable, just and right Parents. one and all visit the schools.

oN- JouiS AiSldlhs
 As we predicted last week. Deputy Sheriff Ashton took the trail of Pipkin and Hatch, at the place where they killed Lewis He followed it on Tuesday to Patterson's saw mill, and learned that Hatch had taken dinner there that day, and had left an hour before his arrival. Learned while there that Hatch and Pip kin were at the camp of Hatch's brother. who was cutting saw logs for Bliss mill, and that they were bad men and would not surrender without desperate strug- gle. He secured the services of two men and found the camp of which they were in search about an hour before daylight Mr. Ashton took position in front of the cabin, and placed a man at each end. about forty paces distant, so as to com mand view of the entire building. Just as it was good daylight Ashton called to John Hatch, and repeated it four or five times. to "come out and throw mp his hands-that he had warrant for his ar rest that the house was surrounded and it was impossible for him to escape" He says he could hear men talking in the cabin at the time he called, but that he received no answer He then saw a mans head close to the ground, looking around the opening for door, and called again to "throw up your hands and come out" Again no response. Called again thee or four times. The man then raised himself into position as if taking aim, whereupon he called again to throw up your hands or I will shoot" and after re- beating it, fired killed the man, who proved to be brother of Joe Hatch. one of the men he was following. He then returned to Patterson's mill, and sent Navajo in dian to Tenaia for Justice of the Peace to hold an inquest on the body. The In- dian was stopped by Joe Hatch when about half way to Tenaja, and asked if he was hunting him. That night the Indian returned to Patterson's and reported that Justice of the Peace had gone to the Gillo. | Meanwhile Ashcroft, a friend of the Hatch boys, had gone to Gallup, sworn out a warrant fer the arrest of Ashton, and next morning an officer arrived and took hIm to Gallup. where ne was bound over to appear before the grand jury at Albuquerque. From all the facts and in consideration of what he had been told as to the desperate reputation of the two men of whom he WAS in pursuit, we think MT. Ashton acted with great cool ness, and had the man who was killed have spoken he would have been alive to day. Almost any man, under similar circumstances, would have fired long be fore Mir. Ashton did No sane man who is following up desperate criminal ol criminals, is going to give them chance to get the first shot, if he can prevent it. While such accidents are deplOrabi( and to be regretted and no one regrets this unfortunate occurrence more thar Mir. Ashton yet we think no blame car be attached to him.

Mexican Trade.


 When the Sonora railroad was complet- ed 75per cent of the goods sold in Quay mas were brought from Europe. and the other g per cent came from the United States. The completion of the road reversed the figures. The same may now be said of MaZatlan and other important coast towns, but should Super intendent Richards succeed in securing a concession that will permit him to land dutiable goods at their destination be- fore the duties are paid there will be an- other important reversal of figures. This order of things will not only be beneficial to the United States but also to Mexico. That country has products which the United States would buy and an exten- sion of trade between the two countries can not but prove beneficial all around Such a concession given to our railroad, followed by carefully prepared reciproc- ity treaty would work wonders in extend ing the commercial relations of the two countries. And situated as they are very liberal concessions should be made all around.

Brady Exonerated.
Glnhn silver RalI.

In view of the oft-repeated charges against the integrity of the Hon. Peter R Brady, for the purpose of defeating him for the position of Joint Councilman, the Belt on the 20th of September last, felt it due to that gentleman to contradict the stories then ahoat in regard to his alleged complicity in the dedication of George Fl. Stevens, treasurer of the Board of Territorial Prison Commis- sioners. And now. in confirmation of the truth of what we then said, we give publicity to the letter of Judge R. E. Sloan of the Supreme Court of Arizona. upon the same subject as the editorial re- ferred to, which fully supports what the Belt then said in reference to the matter. The Judge, if aware of the fact, does not state in his letter that MT. Baady was powerless to protect the Territory by reason of being overruled by the other two commissioners. Stevens and Lyons, or that Mir. Brady for that reason con templated resigning his position as mem Der of the Board, but was persuaded by political friends not to do so, for the req son, that his presence would, perhaps, re- suit in preventing a wholesale waste of prison funds. It was in this dilemma that Mir Brady, for the better protection of the trust confded to the prison commis- sioners, asked legislative inquiry con corning the financial management of the prison, which would have been made had it not been that the action of both branch es of the legislative assembly was nulli- fled by veto of Governor Zulick. Here is Judge Sloan's letter:

Yours of the 23d inst at hand. distinctly recall the eonversa- ton had with you at the time you refer to. relative to proposed resolution to be introduced by me in the Council for the appointment of committee to investigate the affairs of the prison at Yuma. In this conversation you requested that l intro duce such a resolution, and. ifnly memory serves me rightly, stated upon the floor of the Council when the resolution, sub sequently vetoed, was under consider ation 1 also recall the fact that about the time you mention (March 12th,) when in Phenix, you inquired of me if anything had been done in the matter. and that 1 stated to yon the condition in which the Hardy resolution then was.
 know of no reason why you should not be privileged to make any proper use of this you may desire.
 Very respectfully,

From Mammoth,
Tombstone Epitanh.


 From Capt Thorndyke, who came in from Mammoth yesterday, we learn that everything is running smoothly in that camp. The mill is kept steadily running, only six or seven men being employed to break down the ore, which is simply quarried out just like the men were blast ing out the side of a hill. None of the machinery for the new 100 stamp mill is on the ground yet but there seems no doubt that it's erection will soon be com menced, and when begun will be pushed 10 completion as rapidly as possible. There are many claims taken up on this gigantic ledge, which can be plainly traced for many miles, but the owners, as a rule. are broke and development work IS extremely slow. Next spring will probably be the commencement of active work on several claims, whose owners will do some responsible rlstling this winter for sufficient money to fairly open their properties.

Lost Mine Found.
Yuma Sentinel

An old Mexican prospecting in the Hachitas one day last week, found half way down mountain piece of old tim Der sticking out of the ground. With difficulty he pulled it out. Seeing that the earth was soft as fl it had been placed there. he dug few feet and struck an opening to tunnel, which was covered by large flat stone. He removed the stone and entered. but having only a small piece of candle he did not explore more than one hundred feet. It was an old mine containing the skeleton of a man, together with an old rusty stirrup or girth. Considerable work had been done. The finder has located the proper ty and is ROW exploring the lost mine.
