A business argument brought for ward in favor of Arizona becoming a state, is that if Uncle Sam is as lib eral as he has been with other new commonwealths, he will give her 4,6l5,460 acres of land within her borders. Arizonans with an eye to the main chance are figuring that if this land could be sold for $l an acre, it would wipe out the state debt and leave s, ,750, ,460 to the credit of the good times fund, or something of that sort.

THE SILENT SIDE.
Sarah Junkin.

The subject chosen by Miss Sarah
Junkin of Lewistown, Pa, was "rhe
Silent Side" and very beautifully did
she detail the silent yet powerful in
huences in quiet, unassuming life.
AS an introduction to her subject, she
pictured very prettily, the magnificent,
towering peaks of the Rocky noun
tains, and how, that, in their silent
grandeur, they seem to impress one
with the injunction, be firm, be strong,
be courageous.
Further on she said 1t is not so
much what we do, as how We do it

Ox Teams Are Said to Be Dangerous Rf-
 vals to Long Established Line.
 A St. Petersburg correspondent of The New York Tribune writes that an extraordinary petition has been pre- sented to the minister of communica- tions by the directors of the Baskunt- chalk Railway company, praying that measures be adopted by the govern ment to prohibit the conveyance of salt by peasants on floats drawn by oxen, ''as this kills the goods traffic of the line" In commenting on the above The Grashdanin states that the compe- tition between the railways and oxen is extremely keen, especially in the south of Russia, and that the oxen are actually driving the railroads out of the grain transport business. Huge quantities of the corn shipped from Odessa arrive at that port from the interior, not by rail, but by old fash toned wagons drawn by bullocEs. In this way millions of bushels are annu- ally withdrawn from the railroad.
 The farmers allege that they are forced to act thus by reason of the ut ter unreliability of the railroad ser vice, and by the damage, loss and de- lays to which their shipments are ex- posed at the hands of the railway companies. The latter defend them selves by pleading lack of rolling stock. But the fact is that, however large the number of goods wagons might be, the mismanagement is so colossal that half the rolling stock might be mislaid and not discovered for a gen. eration or two. This is no flight of fancy, but is statement founded on fact.
 Some time ago 700 railroad cars, both for passengers and freight, were casually discovered ill one of the dis tant suburbs of the city, after they had been entirely forgotten for more than ten years. They were standing in an immense field, which was surrounded by high wooden wall, but without any overhead shelter, and therefore exposed to the action of rain, hail and snow. They had been built twelve years ago by the firm of Gobulef & Go. for the Rybinsk-Bologofsky rail way, and had been stored there pend ing some dispute relative to the con- tract, and had been entirely forgotten by the railroad company. The wooden parts of the cars had routed, and the moss and grass of ten years growing on the roof gave them the picturesque appearance of a portion of a ruined ab- hAv

REV ROBERT HUNTS LETTER.

Editor of the Neus:
 I do not entirely forget your great kindness to me in various ways. I have often thought that should contribute to the columns of your paper more fre- quently than have for few years past, and my only apology is simply want of time.
 It seems to me that THa NEWS grows better with age. And my wife says we should miss it more than any paper we take. because it gleans it's news largely from our old fields of labor, and the dearest spots to wife and I on the old globe are the appointments we have served.
 Wife says "now you must send Mir Beckley 6 box of our oranges. Send him box of Russets they are sweeter and better than the Brights " These oranges came directly from my sons grove in Minneola, Fla. and were fully ripe when picked. Our trees are just coming into bearing, and after awhile will be profitable. The boys have experienced many hardships, as all must who strike out into O new country, but by perse- verance they are sure to win. Minneola from nothing has grown in six years to be nice village and its near neighbor, Clermont, on the same lake, is quite as large. Both villages have fine stores and hotels, two railroads and 8 little steamboat on the lake, and so you see the "winter of their discontent' is past.
 Now 8 single fish story and single hunting story and we close. Eugene last week caught 31 bass in lake Minne- ola, weight 140 pounds, one of them weighing Ill pounds. Shot in about six hours 61 quail and English snipe.
 I came near forgetting to write you that the people of Pawling greatly ap- i,reciated the visit aud lecture of Dr Eddy last Tuesday night. I heard this remark "What noble old Roman he is." Sincerely yours,
 ROBERT HUNT. PuwIing, N r., Jan 30, 1891.
