The corporation organs are lab bring hard to convey the impress sion that the vote on the constitu- tion Six weeks hence must decide whether Arizona shall become a state now or never. The intense popular desire for statehood has proved the greatest obstacle to it's attainment at this time, for the grasping corporations, realizing that the bright vision of statehood would blind the eyes of the people to their we'll prepared schemes, secured the incorporation of the most yillainous article upon the water question that can be con- ceived. They were not content with an equitable adjustment of the subject, but the demanded everything. With such state of affairs confronting the people, what other course is open but the most active opposition. Under no cir cumstances will Arizona be ad- mitted until after the next presi- dential election, and there is plenty of time to frame an honest consti- tuition under an enabling act of Congress long before that time. This is a very serious matter, and the people should know they are right before they take solemn step that can never be recalled. The territory is not spelling; it's embryo statesmen can profit by the delay in preparations for their exalted duties; the betrayers of the people can repent in sackcloth and and ashes; Phoenix can then secure the capital without trading off all other interests, and the peo- pie will receive the rights that justly belong to them. Statehood or bust" is not the battle cry for any but the shylock speculators in human labor or but the demand should go forth that statehood and justice shall come together.-I Florence Enterprise.

A "Reminiscences Of Virginia.

A dear old lady who spends her
summers in Mackinac with her daugh-
ter, and who used to visit tho White
House when Andrew Jackson was
President, Is one OF the most charm
ing OF raconteurs. Among the anus
ing incidents she tells Of her early
days Is this which occurred Mt din
nsr given st the house OF Gov. Floyd,
OF Virginia, her native State, where
she and her father were guests. On
this occasion the Governor was DIN
ing n select party, among whom were
some French stoics who bad recently
arrived In the country, and whose
heads, as become stoics, were as bald
as "A billiard ball. When the dinner
was In progress, q servant brought In
the old Virginia batter pudding,
which is only In perfection when hot.
II was hot this time. When he at-
tempted to pass II over the head OF
one OF the guests n careless waiter
'joggled" his elbow, and the pudding
collapsed on the shining bald pate OF
the stole. Being stole he could
make no outcry, but sat bold upright
while the agitated servant scraped
of the unlucky pudding. The sui

At The Engine.

The light from the electric lamps Is
reflected in patches on the smooth
steel beams OF the engine. In and
out, in and out, like shuttles weaving,
work the rods, their perfect rhythm
of motion and precision Of movement
giving no hint OF the great speed at
which the giant vessel is cleaving her
way.
DAYS have passed without a signal
from above, the engines throbbing
steadily. Everything is repose; the
incessant motion OF the machinery is
so common TO the men that they do
not notice it, The deck may be ever
so noisy and these men, buried in the
bowels OF the ship, would nevsrknow
il.
Suddenly the great signal gong
sounds upon the stiffness a single re-
.onant clang-stop. The engineer
and his assistants are at their posts
in an instant; the engines stop. This,
the first signal for hours, yes days,
means to them nothing, but that 1t
must be instantly obeyed.
1t may be a man overheard II may
be in another instant some vessels
PROV will cut the ship in two, or the
ship itself crash into an iceberg
only know their orders the bell has
-poken-stop.
With hands upon the wheels they
stand waiting, every nerve strained,
in utter ignorance OF what the signal
means. Soldiers In action see the
danger; the officers on deck know
what is going on; but these men
know nothing but duty.
\ moment passes without word in
that narrow room. Strong hands
are ready for the next order. lt
comes, "clang, clang,' reverse the
engine" The lever Is drawn Tor
ward, the valves open and obedisnt
to the touch the great piston rods
move again.
The seconds seem ages, one TWO
minutes and then-an awful crash, a
grinding and the vessel staggers.
"Clang" goes the great gong and stu
at the posts quick hands stop the en-
CINE. Ting a-linga-ling," ting a
ling a -ling"-"quit the engine, comes
the signal.
While confusion has reigned above,
these silent men have stood to their
posts until this order came. They
rush to the deck. The vessel is hll-
ing, a great hole in her bow from the
collision with the ice, and all hands
turn TO the life boats
In the depths OF a steamer where
that great heart OF mans construc-
ton beats out the vessels life. true
heroism is TO be found, firm, unques-
tioning obedience to orders.

A Beautiful Idea.

Away among the Allegh anies there
is spring, so small that single OF
could drain it dry on a summer day.
1t steals its unobtrusive way among
the hills till it spreads out in the
beautiful Ohio. Thence IT stretches
away thousand miles, leaving on
its banks more than a thousand vii
lagss and cities, and bearing on it's
bosom more than q half a thousand
steamboats,. Then joining on the
Mississippi, it stretches away some
twelve hundred miles more, till 1t
falls into the great emblem Of eter-
nifty. 1t is one Of the great tributa-
ries Of the ocean, which. obedient
only to God, shall roll on until the
angel. with "one foot on the sea and
the other on the land, shall lift up
his hand to heaven and swear that
Time shall be no more" So with
moral influence. II is the rill, the
rivulet, the ocean, boundless and
fathomless as eternity.

Victory of the Vanquished.

Granted the odds are against us; granted We
enter the field
When fate has fought and conquered, broken
our sword and shield.
What then? Shall we ask for quarter, or say
that our work is done?
Say, rather, greater glory is ours If the field
be won!
Ills war with the wrong OF years-with pre-
judice, pride and hate;
Against the worlds decree, and the frown Of
an evil fate.
A crown to the one who wins and the worst
is only grave,
And somewhere, somewhere still, reward
awaits the brave.
A broken shield without, but hero's heart
within,
And held with a hand OF steel, the broken
sword may win!
