a TEST oath in the constitution would
probably leave the republicans IN the
majority in Arizona. 1t is needless to
say that republican politicians are q
unit for the test osth.-Bulletln.
The test oath, SO called, is an oath that
no good citizen will refuse to take. The
editor Of the Bulletin is a democrat
but he is a good citizen and would not
hesitate to take the test cath, however
administered. The editor of the CITI-
ZEN is a republican and would take the
test oath in like manner, 80, We repeat
again, will any good citizen. 1t is only
those who violate the law and fear it,
that refuse to take the oath in question.
II these law-breakers constitute the dem
ocratic majority, as the Bulletin implies,
it must be a disreputsble party that
will not purge itself Of its iniquities.
The test oath is the bugbear OF the
democratic party in Arizona. and they
dare not countenance its adoption at
the expense of their political power IN
the territory. If the adoption Of the
test oath would leave the republicans in
q majority in Arizona the thinking
of the democratic party must
stand az hast at the element that gives
it place and power in the territory.

NO RAIN CAME.

The prolonged and elaborate rain
making test so much advertised for FL
Psso, says the Times, during the past
week, is over and the result was disap-
pointing to those who placed confidence
in the operations Of the government
party. This failure, however, is not dis
couraging to a scientific mind. The
theory is purely in an experimental stage
and before a positive and absolute con-
clusion can be reached there must be
more trials and their results or lack OF
results must be carefully studied. Ii
rain follows the experiments there Is yet
the work of scientifically connecting
cause and effect.
The work at Ell Psso was complete
and there is nothing that the operators
can complain Of except a very..dry at
mosphere and the entire absence Of
clouds. This state of things, however,
was desired by the party that their sue
cess might be considered more complete
IN case it came at all. They had no de-
sire to deceive anyone,and we're as much
interested as the public in fair test of
the theory upon which their operations
are based.
It will be necessary to make many
other experiments before the theory can
be established or controverted. The re-
suit here is not to be regretted from q
philosophical standpoint. Other trials
have been followed by rain but there
has been no means of connecting the oc-
currences as cause and effect. There
fore this failure may give an opportunity
to detect the missing factor that might
have made rain sure or the error that
makes the theory false.
Ell Paso has gone to some expense to
have the test made here asd the money
has been well spent No because it has
advertised the city far and wide, but be-
cause the subject under consideration
was one OF vital interest to the section
that surrounds Ell Paso on every side.
We have shown the people who inhabit
tae country tributary to FL Psso that
we are interested in their welfare and
will expend money in anything that is
calculated to promote their interests.
1t may be very difficult thing to pro-
duce rain and the methods of today may
be remotely wide OF the true methods
that science may provide in the future,
but the truth remains that knowledge
has done 30 much for man that we can
not fix limit at any point. The time
may come when the present method
may be perfected or when an entirely new
process may infallibly give US rain when
ever it is desired.

FULTON, Mo-, proposes to stop the
cow nuisance by passing an ordinance
authorizing anyone to milk a cow

SPARKS FROM THE DYNAMO.

A PORTABLE telephone for use on the
battlefield has been invented by
Frenchman named RouleZ-
A SHIPS winch driven by electricity
is now found on many steamers pro-
vided with dynamo facilities.
Edison is of the opinion that ultimate
ly the house will be both lighted and
heated for sixty cents year.
a RECENT invention used in factories
enables any person in any part of the
factory to stop the main engine by SIM
ply pushing an electric button.
THE leading electrical journals have
abandoned the terms such as mo
toneers," ''motineers," ETC., to distin-
guish the electric car drivers, and now
more sensibly call them ''motormen."
ELECTRICITY has been indirectly en-
ployed for instantaneous photography
Of large assemblies. At Dusseldorf re-
Gently eight immense magnesium lamps
were einstantaneously fired by an electric
current, and photograph of over six
hundred persons was successfully made.

READ AND REMEMBER.

oNE-TENTH of the world is still unex-
plored.
ONLY one man in 2O3 is over six feet
in height.
AT least one-third Of the earth is com,
posed of oxygen.
THREE pints of liquid day is sufficient
for the average adult.
SOME insects are in state Of maturi-
ty thirty minutes after birth.
REMEMBER that children are only
small editions of older people, and that
they have feelings quite as acute.
THERE are estimated to be 97,790

SUGGESTIONS FOR FARMERS.

KEEP the barnyard cleaned up. A
nail in a horses hoof may cause you
more trouble than it would to keep the
yard clean for lifetime.
A SMALL box of nails, nuts and screws
will be found serviceable at all times,
and should be carried to the field with
the implements, as accidents often hap
pen when least expected.
THE way for farmer to determine
his profit or loss is the way every other
competent business man keeps books.
1t is to balance aggregate receipts
against aggregate expenses.
BOARDS on the pig pen floor soon be-
come smooth and slippery, causing the
hogs to be injured. Earth is the best
floor for pig pen, provided the pen is
kept clean and plenty of litter and alb
sorbents used.
CRUDE carbolic acid, gill to an ordi-
nary bucket of soapsuds, is excellent
for destroying lice ana parasitic dis
eases. Animals may be sponged with
the mixture, and it may also be
sprinkled over the floors and stalls with
advantage.

CONCERNS OF WEALTH.

THE bank of Scotland issued one
pound notes as early as 1704, and their
issue has since continued without inter-
ruption.
IT is stated that the London banks
have on deposit some 1000, 900, 600,
while the actual cash deposit on hand
does not exceed eos, 900, 600, or less than
5 per cent.-Credit Review.
SIXTY years ago only one public bank
ing company existed in London, and at
the bank of England private accounts
were at that time opened rarely ana
with the greatest difficulty.
A COMBINATION has been formed of
the asbestos manufacturers of this
country. The capital of the new con-
Germ is 81, ,25O, 900, 1t is proposed, with
competition out of the way, to push as
bestos into many new uses.
ONE of the great financial institu-
tiors of this country is the Bowery
savings bank of New York city. On
the first of July it had deposits amount
ing to $50. 2f7, ,OS7.26, and its surplus
was S5,O5G, ,o35. 16. 1t had 1O7. .44O de-

ORC BLANCO.
The Montana Develops Surprisingly
Stock and Range.

The Montana mine, opened a few
months ago in the Orc Blanco district is
proving far greater success than an
ticipated. At the grsatest GeDth go
feet under ground has been reached, in a
solid body of ore exeavai ID for about So
feet by l6 wide. The li:.its of the body
are not known as there Is ore above and
below, and OF unknown width. As a
whole it is not very high grade, but is
an extremely valuable concentrating
proposition, containing lead and silver
IN very satisfactory quantities. Other
portions OF the miDe, where tunneled and
drlfted, show ores OF greater or less
value. Much Of the Montana ore is suf
hclently rich 20 bear transportation to
smelters without treating it on the
ground. The property is owned by
Aessrs- Cheyney L Co., and is worked
by Messrs. Royce i Co. under the super
lntendency of John Began. Royce &

prise has earned.
Work is In the usual progress at the
Yellow Jacket mine, 1t is understood
that additional improvements are con-
templated,
DR.. Noon, to whom the CITIZEN is IN
deoted for the present information, says
there are several mining enterprises on
foot IN the Oro Blanco country, likely
70 be lnaugurated soon.
Although the district is dryer than
for years it is not so much SO as mapy
portions OF the neighboring country,
Stock is fat. 1t is realized, however
that the ranges are comparatively over
stocked. The ranchers ali desire to sell
OF feeders and steers. Buyers now and
this fall will find excellent opportunity
OF buying good feeders in the Arivaca
region. The feeders are such as should
induce them not to lose present oppor-
tunities.
