them are being cultivated the minds
which are to be our future Lawmakers
and leaders in every walk in life. How
essential it is that these minds should be
united to strong, healthy bodies. So
many children suffer from impurities
and poisons in the blood that it is a
wonder that they ever grow to be men
and women Many parents cannot find
words strong enough to express their
gratitude to Hoods Sarsaparilla for its

blood are efectually and permantly
cured By this excellent medicine, and
the whole being is given strength TO re-

The Board of Supervisors of Yav- apai county do not propose follow ing in the footsteps of their pre- decessors in the matter of eomprnnl- ising railroad taxes of the A. & P. Company. They claim they have no authority under the law to com promise taxes, and refuse to act in the matter unless they find more law t0 authorize such a course. The supreme court of our territory has just rendered a decision to the eff feet that Boards of Supervisors have no right or authority to com promise taxes, and perhaps it is in view of this decision that the Board has taken this position in the mat ter.-Flagstaff Democrat.

ToM. FARIsh of Maricopa county paid General Sherman the following eloquent tribute in moving an ad. journment of the Assembly on the 17th inst.
 MT. Parish moved adjournment in respect to the memory of Gener- al Sherman. He said:
 MT. Speaker-Since the House last met We have received the sad intelligence of the death of one who is, has been, and as long as the the Republic remains will ever be, a prominent figure in the history of America. No man of the past gen. eration did more to make this na- ton of free, sovereign and indepen- dent States than General Sherman. No man holds q warmer place in the hearts of the American people than he. His march from Atlanta to the sea is historical, his name fills a bright page in history, his fame is embalmed in the hearts of grateful nation. Out of respect to his memory I move that we ad- iourn until tc.morr0w at :l5 pm.
 The motion carried and the House adjourned.

THE other day a Colorado states man offered a resolution In the leg islature declaring that the state would not appropriate dollar to the Worlds Fair, because certain Chicago business men petitioned Congress not to pass the free coin age act. Certain southern states have by their legislatures also de- clared that they twill not play" at the Worlds Fair because of the So- called force bill in congress. All of which is very foolish.

The State of the Range.

We believe that grass was more
 abundant in Apache county last summer than it had been for many year. Cattle were fat in the fall but their condition at present Is far from satisfactory, they look hard and Q long dry spring such as we have seen would mean a heavy loss; even with the best prospects many COWS will be lost in the river however we'll the bog riders do their duty, Some stockmen say the late rains washed the strength out of the grass No doubt this to some extent ac- counts for the poor condition of the cattle at present, but we think there Is a much more serious and perma- nent reason for the rapid deteriora- tion in the condition of stock during the last three months. In our opinion the range is overstocked. Cattle have certainly doubled in number during the last six years, while sheep have probably increased as rapidly. There has been no increase in the grazing capabilities of the range in fact, it must be worse on an aver age.
 Ten or twelve years ago it would have been simple to name the rem edy. There was plenty of new coun- try then, and stockman on finding his range crowded could move 10 new range. Where can he go now?
 The problem that confronts the stockmen of Apache county is not a new one, It has been and is being, solved in other parts ofthe west. In cases where no means are taken to keep the number of stock down, nature steps in and does the work.
 The herds keep on increasing and the range growing worse up to a certain point, when the herds de- crease with great rapidity, the calf crop dwindling down year by year. One often hears the remark "That this county is no good for breeding now"
 Of course, when the cattle have faded away the range gets better again. In some parts of New Mexi- co they are buying young steers to put on the ranges which were for merly occupied entirely, and too much so, by cattle of their own rais- ing.
 We should like the stockmen of this county to consider the matter most seriously, and if possible take measures to relieve the range be- fore it is too late.
 Spaying old cows and q certain per centage of heifers and selling all steers off al vearlings is the gen eral remedy. Even the latter car ried out would help our ranges con- siderably. Many of our cattlemen, however, consider that steer ought not to be sold until he is six or sev- en years old, with moss on his horns.

In his report to the State Depar- ment our Consul General says:
 "The Mormon colonies which were established some time ago in Chihuahua, Mexico, appears from the latest accounts, to be prosper ing. The new people are quietly minding their own business and have gone to work cnergetically. The tract of land selected for them was generally considered almost worthless, but the Mormons have already shown that under their hands these heretofore arid. desert lands can he made to blossom and fructify. The authorities of Chi huahua are very much pleased with the immigrants, and the Mormons have provided for their own pr0tec- ton by keeping salaried agents in the City of Mexico, who represent them before the government"
