IT SHOULD BE DROPPED.
Vigorous Protest of Great Republican Newspaper Against the
 Force Bill.
st. Louis Globe-pemocrat.

St. Louis Globe-Democrat
 The exigencies of the situation demand that the republicans of the senate shall drop the federal election bill. A rigid ad herence to the purpose to press the meas ure and to employ all the resources of the party to secure its enactment would be a grave blunder for which not particle of excuse or justification could be assigned. The truth of this proposition seems so self-eyident now that argument or explan- ation Is needless. To be sure, the ques- ton of abstract right and justice involved remains the same as when, during the canvass in which the president and con gress were elected, the republican party pledged itself to secure for all classes at the polls the privileges accorded them by the law. Sufficient has been learned in the past few months, though, to show that this end cannot be accomplished by the method proposed. The object in view, 1 however commendable and necessary, must be compassed by other means than those provided in the bill. The abuse to be complained of, if 1t is formally and az ! gresively attacked at all, must be attack | ed on other lines than those which our statesmen have hitherto laid down.
 l f There are cases in politics in which ! IlEul Dlu6b Nitltt bO CAHCNlJiiCJ AhIo ID one of them. The enactment of the fed eral elections law now would injure the class it is desiged to benefit, would weaken the republican party in the north without strengthening it in the slightest degree in the south, and would retard in stead of hasten, the growth and operation of the social forces which are destined ultimately to solve the problem indicated This is the view of the question which the party generally is beginning to take Indeed, there is no chance in any event of the passage of the bill this session. II is understood that a dozen republican senators would vote against it while hall that number would be sufficient to kill 1t as not a democratic vote would be cast Il it's favor. Persistence in the attempt tC pass it would simply endanger tariff re vision which the republicans must bring about this session under penalty of over whelming and deserved defeat at the poll in the coming congressional election This is the situation. The facts may no be especially pleasing to the party, bu ignoring them or quarreling with then will not alter them The elections bil must be dropped not merely for this ses sion but for all time

Mines of Arizona.
Albuquerque Democrat

DGluOtIdts
 Mir. Chas. Carpenter, of Prescott, one of ths prominent mining men of Arizona, passed through the city yes to-day on his return from an extended eastern trip. He has been engaged in mining in this territory and Arizona for number of years past, and is we'll qualified to give an opinion in regard to the business. Speaking of the min ing prospects of our neighboring terri tory, MT. Carpenter said to reporter ::
 Arizona is the richest mineral country in the world to-day, but it is, as yet, comparatively speaking, entire ly undeveloped. The general depres- sion that has prevailed over all mining sections for the last three or four years has affected Arizona more than any other section of the United States, for the reason that we are obliged to ship our products so far that, with the low prices of silver and lead which have prevailed, we could not get our ores tc market, and consequently all but the very richest of mines had to close down. But the railroads have reduced their rates, and the prices of lead anC silver have gone up, and thus many good mines that have lain idle for years are now resuming work at a profit Although the revival in the mining industry did not set in till near tht middle of the year, I venture to predic that the output of the mines of Ari zona will be greater for 1890 than it wa during the entire period of thre years previous"

Lightning on Wheels.

The announcement made by Professor William D. Marks, says the Philadelphia Record. that he could build an electric motor that could take a train of cars to to New York in thirty-six minutes has created lively interest in many quarters. The Professor has been asked to lecture on the subject before the Franklin Insti- tute and capitalists have consulted with him regarding the feasibility of the pro ject To these he has repeated his state ment that the engine is entirely practi- cable, and that only a straight, well-con- structed roadbed is necessary for a speed of 150 miles an hour.
 An ingenious feature of the use of electricity as a motive power would be that in case of accident or emergency the supply could be shut off from the track and the motor brought to a stop. The railroad would be divided into blocks, as the Pennsylvania now is, and the electric current would only be turned on to a block when all was right and the track clear.
 If the Reading Railroad would be con tent to send passengers down to Atlan- tic City at the rate of 100 miles an hour, or in thirty-three minutes, Professor Marks thinks their line to the seashore could be fully equipped for the use of electricity at q cost of not over $1,500,- 900.

A New Vine Disease,
Phenix Rennhlican.

I
 Robert McPherson, of McPherson, Cal, arrived in Phenix on yesterdays train.
 MT. McPherson comes to look into the horticultural and agricultural interests of Salt River Valley. He has been engaged in the raisin industry since 1871 and is actively pursuing the cause of vine diseases.
 It is a deplorable fact that almost every section of California is now CUTS. ed with this pest, which threatens to paralyze the grape raisin and wine industries of that State. Hundreds of scientists have devoted months of study to this phenomena without arriving at any solution of the trouble There is no evidence of animal life in the disease, but the vines seem to cease the circulation Of the fruits life fluid and wither as a paralyzed human limb would do. This is q ques- ton of vital importance to the grape growers of this country, and the matter of prevention should be stud jed be fore the disease attacks the young vineyards of the valley.

Another North Road.

Several of the leading business men of Phenix men of means are considering the
 advisability of organizing local company to construct north and south railroad, The fact is becoming apparent, that this is about the only sure way of securing railroad communication with Yavapai county, and energetic measures are now being pushed to bring about such re- suit. Any movement looking to this end will receive the hearty and substantial endorsement of the men of this valley, as already too much valuable time has been wasted in waiting for unfulflled promises. We have no fear of the building or the
 result of operating such road after con- struction, and that it would be the best paying line in Arizona, goes without say ing. The product of this valley, stimulat- ed by northern line and a market for our crops, would astound the residents themselves, as the capabilities of the Salt River valley are but little known today

Probable Cattle Profit.
Natinnnl stnck1nnn

A number of times during the year past friends have suggested that the Stockman was altogether too conservative in its expressions about the early future of the cattle trade. We have been told time and time again that we could and should predict great things for it during the summer and fall of 1890 We did not feel inclined to do so. We have been content to discuss the situation in a rather hopeful tone, but have never held out the idea that the outlook warranted extravagant expectations. The correct ness of this position has been demonstrat ed by the developments of the season, and looking the ground over at this time we do not see any reason for amending or adding to what has been said on that sub iect before. The prospects of cattle rais- CTS are very much better than they have been for some years, and yet those who expect extremely high prices in the course of the next few months are most likely doomed to disappointment. The ] business should, and we believe will, yield something of profit to feeders during the coming season, but it will only be ! to those who follow the business judic- ] iously, buy their cattle st fair values, 1 feed them economically and keep them selves well posted as to when and how to ] sell.

Revenue from Convict Labor.
Tucson Citizen

The territorial prison commissioners have authorized the superintendent, Capt. Ingalls,, to enter into contracts with San Francisco parties to supply them with hemp made by the convicts from the na- tive wild flax which grows in great album dance along the lower Colorado. The San Francisco parties have already advanced $500 for 100 cords of hemp to be cut by the Indians. This will be delivered to the prison and there worked into the commer- cial article and shipped to San Francisco
 The commissioners also authorized the superintendent to construct a separate apartment of fifty squares, to be cut from the solid wall and used for female prison CTS, so that they can be kept entirely sep arate from the rest of the prisoners.

Marsh, at which superintendent Marsh was in structed to increase his working force now engaged on the road to 100 men MT. Marsh thought with this force he would be able to open the road fol through travel in November.
 There is no doubt but this will be one of the finest roads in the territory. The Crowned King mine, realizing the i'm portance of this outlet from the Brad shaws, have large gang of men alread! at work cutting new road to connec with it. Others are following thelr ex ample. Tip Top has also caught tn fever and is agitating for more perfec communication with Phenix. Ere tw' months more have elapsed the farmer of Salt River Valley will have begun {, feel the benefit of this new enterprise.

The New Road.
Phenix Herald

The directors of the new Bradshaw toll road met in the valley Bank yesterday af ternoon and heard Supt. Marsh's repor of progress, which proved very satisfactory He was authorized to increase the work ing force from forty-fve to one hundred men. By this means the road will prob ably be finished about November 18th The work thus far done Is very substantial No greater grade than fifteen degrees vii be encountered. An assessment on sub scription account was ordered to meet ac crued liabilities. Steps were taken toward securing a connection with the Tip Tol district. This Bradshaw route when fin ished will doubtless be the main highway to Prescott for stages and private teams Supt. Marsh returned this afternoon wit supplies and additional men.
