TOLD OF CENTENARIANS.

EDWARD LENNON, the IriShman who
has just died in New York at the age of
one hundred and five years, carried
pike in the great Irish rebellion of 179S.
He had papers in his possession proving
his birth in County Derry, Ireland, in
1855.
DANIEL SALISBURY and his wife, of
Lac Qui Parle, Mimi, are probably the
oldest married couple in the country.
They are one hundred and three and
one hundred and one years old respect
lively, have been married eighty years
and are still quite smart"
FRED WALKER, aged one hundred and
nineteen years, is undoubtedly the old
est man in West Tennessee. He lives
in Savannah. Mr.. Walker stated that
he had voted for every president of the
United States, from Thomas jefferson
down to the last presidential election.
Mr.. Walker makes his living by copying
for the county court clerk of McNairy
county, which proves that his sight is
good.

THE rich developments in mines and
the large operations in stock and agri-
culture warrant us in encouraging a
thrifty and Industrious class of people
in coming to this territory to make their
homes. Not that they will find fortune
in d day, or year perhaps; but for the
industrious there is employment in va
rious occupations that will pay, and pay
we'll Those who come to Arizona and
remain idle, are idle from choice, and
not from the lack of remuneratIve en-
ployment. We will also venture the
assertion that there are more busy men
in this territory in proportion to her pc
pulation, than any other locality in the
Union.

CAPITAL AND LABOR.

Speaking of labor troubles, an eastern
exchange ventures the opinion shat
financial difficulties between labor and
capital should be adjusted by means of
arbitration on the part of the govern
ment." Well. there are possibly a few
cases where far adjustment of difficult
ties might be made by such arbitration,
but in very large majority of cases
neither the government nor other parties
than those who are directly interested
should settle the differences. This is a
free governm 1T all-free to the labor
ing man and to the capitalist. The con-
stitution of the United States places ali
men on an equality. Who are the CAPT
taiists OF this country; the men who
employ labor? They are with few ex-
ceptiOns, men who were the most f.. ifl
laborers of a few years ago. They are
men who began at the very bot
tom OF the manufacturing instltu-
lions of which they are now
the heads. Many of our ables
inanciers began life as messenger boys
in banks or porters in mercantile houses.
The men who have thus risen in the
world are not few, but number half
Of the capitalists, merchants and lead
ing men of the country. We speak OF
the Capitalists" and the "laboring
classes" which is perfectly right and
proper today; but in ten years from to
day what a change there will be in the
relative position of individual members
of each class. Thousands upon thou
sands of the laboring classes of today
will be proprietOrs and capitalists ten
years from now, and about an equal
number of capitalists, manufacturers
and merchants will be relegated to the
lower walks of life, sborn of their wealth,
and forced to LABOR for their daily
bread, or starve. Some plan should be
adopted Il protect the laborlng man; il
is not right that he should be forced TO
work foT a less sum than he actually
earns, aud OF the other hand the en-
ployer cannot pay more for labor than
he realizes cut Of such labor. For in
stance, if the manufacturer is paying
SLIGO day for labor and makes a profit
Of 6 per cent. on goods manufactured
he cannot afford 20 pay $3.50, which
would cause him a loss of 6 per cent
The government cannot compel man to
run a mill or factory at loss, in order
that laboring men may receive fair wages
for their work, nor can the government
compel the owners of mills and factories
in prosperous times, to divide their pro-
fits with the men who help to make these
profits. There is no way in which the
government can, by arbitration, aid the
laboring classes. This matter can only
be adjusted by the employer and en-
ploye.

THE prepriety of dehorning cattle on
Arizona cattler anges is yet an unsettled
factor among stockmen. some favoring
it and others opposing it as unwarranted
and Improbable. To say the least it is
atrociously cruel and without conpen-
sating benefits The claim that dehorned
cattle will put on more fat than those
not SO disfigured, may be true, but the
liability to loss of life among the herds
subjected to the cruel process more than
counteracts any advantage that may be
derived thereby.

from the performance of the conditions
and that the arrangements between
them and the 'grantors operated as a
grant in fee to the contractors of the
entire tract, embracing about 60,000O00

that the conditions of the grant were
precedent, and that therefore no title
passed to the contractors until the con-

that the grant simply named this tract

to receive selections from this tract, the
