l LARGE number of fruit Ire

4 LARGE number of fruit trees are be- ing put out ia the vicinity of Tucson this season. The experiments of the past have demonstrated as certainty. the adaptability of our climate and sol to fruit culture. Apricots. figs, grapes and many other varieties, attain large size and delicious flavor. There is far more profit in fruit than in any other business that can be followed by those who want to cultivate the soil. The market IS here at home, and the prices will always be satisfactory. Our people are beginning to see this, and as re suit an increased number of fruit trees are planted in this portion of the Terri tory every year.

AN UGLY DISCOVERY.
A Report that should Be Read.

"A recent analyzation in Philadelphia by eel ebrated chemist of ten popular brands of Sarsa- parilla discloses the astonishing fact that these ten samples of blood purifiers e? contained in the aggregate Sirteea different minerals, eleven of which were active poisOns. Iodide of Potash was discovered in every sample, mercury was found In all h' two, while arsenic existed in six of the tcu 5. Not one brand was the pure article"
 A Ter took the above clipping to E. W. Joy, tAe ''-iacturerof of Joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla. 1ir. Joy exhibited no surprise. He said druggists knew it. He said he long ago saw the crying need for safe and absolutely pure vegetable preparation of sarsaparilla, hence his was named Joys Vegetable sarsaparilla, because it contained nothing but pure syrup of sarsaparilla, combined with the pure juices of Caliiornias vegetable al- teratives Unlike potash sarsaparilas, it does not force impurities through the skin, but stimulates the various secretive organs, thereby correcting functional Arrangements and eliminating all irl- purities through the natural ehannelS-SGn Fran sise0 E<G1siaer.

THE prospect for speedy lifting of the great railroad blockade in the Sierra and the Siskiyou mountains is not good, says the Chronicle, as yesterday snow fell heavily in both places. It is humil- iating to confess that science can devise no means of overcoming snow in the mountains, but this is the cold fact. This blockade has lasted now as long as the famous blockade in the winter of 1876, and in these 13 years, though the greatest improvements have been made in cars and engines, still the trains on all American reilroads that cross high ele- vations sare subjected to the same de- lay. Here is a field for inventive science which is waiting for the coming discov- erer.

TELEGRAPHIC advices from San Fran cisco sare that the annual election of the Silver King Mining Company has resulted in the election of the H. H. Noble ticket. As both parties have com mitted themselves to the establishment of transfer office in this city, the East ern stockholders have obtained the prin- cipal object for which they contended. NIT. Noble has also stated that he is in favor of an assessment not to exceed twenty-five cents per share, which we infer will soon be levied, as the last of ficial statement to January l, 1890, shows that the company have expended all their cash and are ia debt to the amount of S3.574, thus showing the expenditures for the previous month to have been 53.026.

z EoRrNsAZE DEFEAT.

The bill to appropriats s75,000 to compensate members of the House of Representatives for losses personal to themselves, though occasioned by the dishonesty Of a public servant, was well dofeated by a vote of 142 against to 126 fc- its passage. Had the measure pre- vailed, somewhat o&the indignation that pursued tho old-time salary grabbers would have followed the salary recouP- CTS who supported it, for the default ing agent Of the House did not appro- priate to himself certain sums of money set apart for public use, but certain sums Of money left in his hands by members of Congress. The members left their private money with the dis honest servant of the House, just as they might have left it with some bank erwho might have stolen it. 1t would Lave been outrageous to appropriate Iublic money to recoup Congressman for money lost by the failure CT embez- clement of Q banker, and it would have been no less outrageous to make ali ap- lropriatiOG for recOupment of loss sus tained by the dishonesty Of the servant Of the House.

Silcott, the last agent. was dishonest, and the mem bers who trusted him were victimized. The bill to repay their losses out of the government treasury was in bad taste and of doubtful morals, and it was wise ly defeated.

The friends of eX-Speaker Charles Ii.
Pine of Ansonia are confident that he
will receive the republican nomination
for congressman in this district, but
they will be disappointed to learn that
Senator Graham of Orange is in the race,
and that he is practically sure of the
nomination. Some time ago eX-Con-
gresham Kellogg of this city was APP
preached on the subject of allowing his
name to be used, but Mr. Kellogg says
he is now too old to think of running for
congress again, and is disposed to re-
main at home and attend to his law
practice. Col Doherty was also spoken
of, but he is not ambitious for the honor,
and will remain at home looking after
the affairs of the post office.
