"There are no accidents" was the unquallhed
declaration made in an address by the Rev.
Thomas Dixon yesterday. The statement may
ho regarded as too sweeping, but its utterance
directs attention to the prevalent over-use OF
the word accident" Many so-called accidents
are not accidents at all; for no mlshap that IS
nrevent;bIe can be truthfully described as acc-
dental. Mr.. Dixon's remark was made apropos
of tine Park Place horror, which he unhesitat-
inely pronounced crime on the part OF the
owner of the building. In times OF excitement
following such deporable loss OF lie condem-

1t is not all clear sailing for Speaker Sheehan
in his pursuit of the Democratic nomination for
Lieutenant Governor At least there are GER
tain people who are striving to make trouble for
him, though it is possible that MIR. Sheehan has
received private and certain assurances that his
name is on the slate But all that is certain in
postics is uncertain, and there is time for the
most carefully prepared slate to be broken and
remade several times before September 10.
Still there is little reason for credting the latest
story regarding Hills alleged hostility to Shee-
han. 1t comes in roundabout way, and the
internal evidence is against its acceptance with

Sherman's great speech, which cannot fail TO make

OF course Mr. Foster believes that Major Mchin-

intense melancholy or craving for drink and drugs. Large excuse may be made for this view. School boys and girls study English literature" or, rather, commit to memory biographies of noted writers, ,-with whose produc- tions they never become familiar unless opportunity or inclination gives a read ing tendency to their adult years. They know that Cowper and Lamb suffered from great mental depression, but they have small acquaintance with "John Gilpin's Ride" or the Essays of Elia." De Quincey and Coleridgs have reputa- tion as laudanum drinkers among people who never read the Confessions" or "Christabel." Poe's Murder in the Rue Morgue" is a sealed book to many who are familiar with the tragedy of his lifelong struggle against appetite, and nine-tenths of those who accept as true Byron's intentionally extravagant statement that he "wrote Don Juan on gin" have yet to peruse his magnificent "Curse of Minerva"
 The authors named possessed weak nesses like men of less celebrity, but their literary fame was in no way ac- quired by "dashing things off," They had to work, and work hard, weig hing here the relative value of a word and there the accuracy of phrase, and, to a great extent, their frailties were self ex' aggerated.

The sick man smiled and fell asleep contented. He awoke refreshed, and, much to the astonishment of his physicians, recovered. "IIis study has little characteristic, but is full of books, and would look methodical but for the litter on the table,"
 George Ohnet, whose "Master of the Forges" is seen on the American stage and sold in the American bookstores, works as hard as Zola, had as bitter an experience as that of Dumas, and, like Daudet, owes much to his wife, who is his first critic and who copies all his manuscript for the printer. "Le Maitre de Forges" was written first as a play. The managers wouldn't take it as gift. Then Ohnet turned it into a novel, which became immensely popular. After that the play got a hearing and scored tri- umph. Neatness marks every detail of Ohnet's study, where he scrupulously spends four hours day. In one partic- ular place on the desk always stands the ink bottle, and the spot devoted to blank paper is never under any consideration given up to anything else.
 Paris claims Zola, Dumas, Daudet and Ohnet alike for citizens. The last named alone possesses money not earned with the pen, but all are wealthy. Brains can be turned to gold with greater facil ity in France than elsewhere. Numer ous American writers have fame, yet few have fortune, and of the few how many could afford to settle an income of Sl2 ,OO0 year on a son? That is what Alphonse Daudet did for his oldest boy the other day, when he married Jeanne Hugo, the granddaughter of Victor Hugo And he has two other children who ar' to be treated with equal munifcence.

 ators of Mana and Camille" Work, work, and still more work is with them the touchstone of success. AS Mir. Sher- ard says: Whatever opinions may be entertained about Zola's books, even those who condemn him most cannot refrain from feeling admiration for the patience, perseverance, method and in- dustry with which he has performed the task that, rightly or wrongly, he consid- CTS the times and his own vocation have laid upon him." He writes never less than three hours day, the remainder of his waking moments being spent III the laborious collection of material.

At ease. His breathing is oppressed, the forehead is wrinkled and the expression one of torment" Fly unremittiIlg in- dustry Zola has won his peculiar place In modern literature. Grave objection may be advanced to much that hs has done, yet few pen pictures can equal in tremendous realism that paragraph which describes blind Nana's struggle for life and the drowning of her cries by the roars of the populace urging Napo- Icons soldiers "On to BerlinV'
 Dumas also has conquered success, only by efforts almost marvellous. It took him ten years to get favorable hearing for Camille" Now both the play and novel of that name are known, wept over, criticised and denounced or praised throughout the civilized world. The "Affaire Clemenceau' is his latest con- tribution to the stage, but he would doubtless hesitate before acknowledging responsibility for the translations offered to American theater goers as "The Oeln. enceau Case" After long years of ardu- ous application he claims well earned right to leisure, and his study clocks more for show than for work, while his manners are those rather of an ambassa. dor in dalliance than man of letters in employment"
 Another French novelist consumed with "fierce hunger for toll" is Al. phonse Daudet. Some time ago he lay i'll, and the doctors gave him no hope oi recovery. He received their practical sentence to death with calmness, but there was task to finish. "Numa Rou mestan," that wonderful story of south ern Frenchman's foibles and genius, haf

3 THE ARIZONA SUGAR COMPANY o

The capital stock of the company is one hundred thousand (loo,00OD shares of ten ($1O) dollars each.
 One-half of the capital stock will be sold in the Territory of Arizona, payable in land adapted to the cultivation of sugar beets, sugarcane sorghum and sac charine products at the market price.
 The other half will be sold for cash, at not less than par, for the purpose of pur- chasing, importing and erecting maehin- cry adapted to manufacturing domestic sugar.
 The fifty thousand shares reserved for the farmers can be paid for at any time within five years from the date of the organization in land or it's saeeharine productions, such as sugar beets, sugar cane, sorghum, etc., etc., and the snb- scribers will be entitled to draw diyi- dend pro rata on payments made.
 The fifty thousand cash shares must be fully paid on delivery, and will be entitled to a full dividend semi-annually.
 It is reasonably expected that the company can declare dividend of 25 per cent per annum on current business, and have some land left.
 After the capital stock shall have been disposed of and one-half fully paid in cash, the company will be authorized to issue equal to one-haH of the capital stock, bonds secured by mortgage, upon all the property of the company, pay able in twenty years, with interest at the rate of percentum per annum, payable semi-annually, for the purpose of devoting the proceeds to the purchase of land, and for no other purpose; pIo- vided, always, that these bonds cannot be issued nor a mortgage on the prop erty executed without the approval Of a majority of the shareholders.
 The Government of the United States offers to pay bounty of two cents per pound or 40 dollars per ton on domestic manufactured sugar, and to admit free of duty, until the first day of July, 1892, all machinery required for it's manu- facture.
 The Territorial Legislature, at it's last session, passed an act exempting all land used in the cultivation of sugar beets, as we'll as the plant and machin' cry employed in the manufacture ot do mestic sugar, from taxation for ter years.
 We imported from foreign countries during the last fiscal year, sugar, mo lasses, candy and confectionery to tho value of $1Ol ,293, 1926, or sent away up wards of one hundred million dollars which can te retained at home by en couraging the manufacture of domestic sugar.
 The average yield of saccbarine matter from sugar beets in France is only peI cent, in Germany 10 per cent.
 In California the average yield is Il per cent.
 It is confdentlybelieved that the soi and sun of Arizona will yield mucl , larger polarization from sugar beet than France, Germany, California, or an, other country; and if these premises ar
 correct, the profits will exceed that of an
 other sugar factory in the United States

It afterward developed that Mir.
