Something New and Good.

Col. Durr has again made step for ward as public benefactor. It had come to his ears recently, that some of the ladies of Tucson were complaining about the beer sold ir this city being bitter. Being on confidential terms with his grandmother, famous old lady who has spent her life studying the likes and dislikes of her sex, he wrote her. explaining what was the matter with the ladies of Tucson. The grandmother knew at once the remedy, and straight way sent a carload of the celebrated Extra Pale Erlanger Standard Beer. This beer arrived yesterday, and has been sampled by the best judges in this city. and pronounced the best family beer in the West. It is just the thing for the ladies, and no bitter taste is car ried with it. The Colonel asks that every family try few bottles of this beer. and feels confident that they will have no other afterwards. The grandmother has never made mistake about the wants and needs of Tucson, and will answer for the satisfaction given by this new beer with her reputation, which is good.
 The Colonel has been instructed to sell this beer at SIP per bbl. and s2.2O per doz so that all may share in the luxury nd benefits afforded by It's use.

The Public Library.

sThere was a meeting of the board of trustees of the Tucson Public Library last night. This worthy institution is now virtually without funds, and the board decided that they would have the city canvassed by a competent person for the purpose of soliciting monthly or annual contributions to the support of the library. This move should meet with @ hearty response from every pub lie spirited citizen in Tucson, and the CITIZEN predicts that it will.
 From now until April 1st the library will be closed at 8 o'clock in the even ing, and it will be closed to the public on Friday nights. instead of on Tuesday as heretofore. This latter action is taken to accommodate the Arizona Pioneers, who meet in the library hail, they hay ing changed their regular meetings to Friday night.

Another Mandamus

In order, if possible, to settle all dis putes about Territorial officers and acts of the 10th Legislature, says the Phenix Herald, suit was begun in the Supreme Court this morning to test the legality of Auditor Hughes acts and the ap propriation bill passed April 10th.
 Hon. Geo. w. Cheyney, as Superiu- tendent of Public Instruction, filed his complaint setting forth that, on Jan. 9th. 1890, the Territory owed him $1 ,444, 42 for eaia-y &S such superintendent from April 10th to December 31st, 1889, and that Auditor Hughes on the said 95h of January, drew his warrant there fore in these words: S1,444,42. No. G. Auditors office. To the Territorial Treasurer, Phenix, Ariz., January 9, 1890. Pay to George ". Cheyney, or order, SI .z44.42. Account of Supt. Pub. Instruction Ter. of Ariz., from April 10 to Dec 31, 1889. Salary, subdivision b of appropriation bill, 1889. Signed, Thos. Hughes, auditor. Countersigned, Nathan 0. Murphy, acting governor. Territorial school fund.
 W AtSil SA-C W tit sttsb DlOoOhOCo tC Treasurer Smith he declined to pay, although he had sufficient funds on hand for the purpose. The money for paying said warrant was duly appropri- ated by the 18th Legislature under the current and contingent appropriation act of April 10, 1889. A writ of man. dite is asked for commanding Treasurer Smith to pay the warrant.
 Judge C. '. Ainsworth appeared for Supt. Cheyney, Attorney General Churchill on behalf of Treasurer Smith, said the suit was friendly one to ob- tain final decision by the Supreme Courts on the points above referred to. He invited lawyers interested in behalf of other officers, including necessarily the democratic claimants, to participate in the suit, and Hon. Ben Goodrich in timated that he would be on hand.
 Chief Justice Wright stated that the matter would come up at 10 a. III. next Monday in come ctlon with the Atty GcLcral's Appeal and all questions be settled at one decision.

Triumph of German Liberals.

BERLIN, March by results of the Sec
ond ballots reported to-day, the disastrous
defeat of the Cartel coalition is confirmed,
and some figures put in q stronger light
the triumph of the German liberals and
socialists. Four districts in this city, in
which the first canvass was undecided,
have now been carried by German liberals.
In the second and third districts the social
lists headed the polls on the first ballot.
Their defeat now is only due to the COM
bination of the other parties against them.
Returns from the provinces received up to
$3.50 p. m. continue to disclose in every d.
rectlon the defeats of the national liberals
and successes Of the popular candidates Of
various stripes. Perhaps the most sur
prising of this activity Of the popular ele-
ment is the lively temperance of the
Volks party and democrats in all districts
where the socialists did not put up candi-
dates. We shall not have full reliable re-
turns until Monday. Prince Bismarck is
already actively planning and regulating
a reconstruction Of the government ma.
jority by manipulation OF the parties.
In his new scheme the center
party will replace the national liberal
party as that stood in Cartel. The cleo
tons have resulted in a full restoration of
the princes control over the emperor.

Representative r. N. Stevens was pre-
vailed upon to act as %auctioneer for the
occasion and he accepted the
honors in neat speech. The
auctioning of the baskets commenced and
there was much spirited rivalry in the bid

duties to Assistant Sergeant-at-Arms

NEW YORK. March l. - President
Chauncey NJ. Depew was seer to-day at
his office in the Grand Central depot, with
regard to the report that appeared in the
morning papers, that he was about to re-
sign his position with the Grand Central
in view of his probable nomination of
president of the United States by the re-
publican party. A good deal of bonhomie
that usually characterizes Depew was
not apparent although courteous as ever,
he seemed a good deal chargined as he
spoke of the matter. He said: II have read
the story you refer to. 1t is a mere fabri-
cation as void of foundation as the dazzle
of a b~aseless fabric Of vision. Mr.. Depew
is not in the habit of throwing away a good
thing until he sees his way to a better one.
l have an honorable position, and a salts
factory income. and l am not going to throw
them up to chase a dream or rainbows' and
that reply covers the entire story" and Mr..
Depew bowed the reporter out. ,

Mortgage Foreclosures,

One Of Senator Fuller's constituents
writes HIM regarding a matter of much in
terest to the people, as follows:
Hon. B. w. Fuller, Bismarck, N. D.
DEAR SIR: This will explain a matter
that l intended to have mentioned to you
while here last Sunday, viz: Whereas the
~shrinkage in values on both real estate and
personal property in the state of North
Dakota inlthe past three years has caused
very great financial embarrassment among
the farmers and business men of our state,
and in many instances the farmers have
become unable by reason of these shrink
ages to prevent proceedings in foreclosures,
which are increasing to an alarming ex-
tent; therefore, l hope you will pardon me
for calling your attention to the import
ance of passing at this session of
the legislature, a law to stay at
least for two years, the foreclosure of
mortgages and to provide also for a stay of
executions on all judgments on promis-
sorry notes and mOrtgaged bonds for a rea-
sonable time after judgment, without bond.
l hope you will consider this matter with
your calm judgment. I don't know of any
thing that the present legislature can do
for the people OF the state of North Dak0-
ia, unless it is the passage Of the Sandager
lottery bill, the two will give our state a
great lift, and hope they will both become
laws; therefore, draw up a bill in the line
l have mentioned, and fire it in as soou as
possible. Your obedient servant,
O. w. ALLEY.

cHArrE1 MORTGAGE PIRATES.
Observation of the Philadelphia Press
Mar in North Dakota.

ODS6TvaUIOuS u tn6 1n1lAUelpnlA IT6SS
30 Man in North Dakota.
jamestown Alert: The greatest cause of
the distress which the Philadelphia Press
finds arises from the extortions of
chattel mortgage pirates, men who take
advantage of the necessities of their fellow
%neighbors. The northern part of the state
has had more than its share of such
sharks, and the drouth stricken counties
above named have harbored their full pro-
portion. These men loan out snail sums
and take for security everything the vic.
Tim has-horses, cattle, machinery, house
hold goods and all. The interest demanded
Is often 5 per cent. to 10 per cent. a month,
according to the necessities of the bor-
rover, with II per cent. a year on all.
A Devils Lake paper recently printed
notices Of chattel mortgage sales where
property worth over $500 was sold for an
$50 debt, which had grown from a $40 be-
ginning; also the sale of stock, machinery,
etc, impartially appraised at $500 for a 800
claim, in which interest was the greater
portion of the Indebtedness.
These things are what make North Da-
kota farmers the worst bled and the
most systematically robbed community
in the country. The climax of wrongs
is reached when individual instances of
elevator and machinery extortion become
known, either by accident or otherwise.
The Press mau says a good word for the
pluck and intelligence of the people he
has met, who blush with shame at their
enforced and unaccustomed condition, but
who are unable to help it. The lesson of
the past two years, he believes, will not be
lost on thousands of settlers, who, if but
two fair crops al be harvested, will be
before-handed enough to shun the skin
game man and the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
tons who lie in wait for victims at every
turn in North Dakota.

Revising the Canadian Tariff.

OTTAWA, Feb. 27.-It is learned in relia-
able quarters that there is to be a CON-
plete revision of the customs tariff. PROB
ably the most important changes affect
ing the United States will be an increase
of from so to Is cents a barrel on wheat
flour and the removal of the duty on Indi-
a n corn imported into Canada from the
United States. AT present the duty
on wheat flour is only so cents
per barrel, while the duty on a quantity of
wheat at Is cents per bushel required to
make n barrel of flour is ~ cents. AS
they have to import large quantities of
American wheat, the new tariff will pro-
test against the inequality in theDtwo duties
and the discrimination will be in favor of
importation of American flour against
which they cannot compete. The people
of the maritime provinces, who will pur-
chase the grearter part of the flour they
consume from the United States, have pro-
tested against the increase OF duty.

The following letter is one of the most
pointed that has been written on the SUBJ
ject of lotteries:
February Goth.
EDITOR TRIBUNE: Who Gun tell me the
real harm in lotteries and why is it "infa-
nous If a man spends one dollar in a
lottery ticket, he knows. if he knows any
thing, that that is most likely the last of it.
Anyway, by the time he has spent another
have an inkling. of the fact. But what of
that? When he has sent his dollar he is
perfectly sober and in his right mind, and
knows that he is just that dollar out and
no more. He has not received anything
that will hurt him, and those who receive
that money, would find some other way to
make it it they were not in the luttery bus
mess. So what difference does it make?
We have heard that "money is the root of
all evil" but we have to use money, and if
one likes to give his money for nothing,
with his eyes open, where does the harm
How many men are there who will de-
prive themselves of an actual necessity to
buy a ticket in a lottery? Not one in a
thousand. Men as a rule want something
for their money, even If that something
does them more harm than good. l nm a
mother OF boys and [ say l would rather
my boys spend all their spare money for
lOtCery tickets n to spend 1t for some
thing | know will do them harm. If any
one can tell me where and what the real
harm is, | am quite willing to change my
opinion, but until that time, and consider
ing the impoverished condition of North
Dakota, l think every member Of this leg
islature is justified in doing all he can to
get the Louisiana Lottery company to
come here, and l say to them all, vote for
it it you think it right and your farmer
constituents will rise up and thank you,
think or say will matter very little.
Please don't put my name to this for
some one will cry bribery and run out the
detectives and I abhor both.
