That carried n blessing with them and lifted
their sous to Heaven:
For out OF this rich abundance the hungry were
Sweetly fed.
The naked were clothed. and the sick and sor
rowful cheered and comforted
And so great Vas the JOY OF giving. that past or
and people felt
As If with the wise men OF the east az the
Saviour feet they knelt.
Oh, never brighter Christmas had dawned on
the duh old town,
Never had richer blessings been scattered so
freely down:
And taught by the Holy Spirit their selfish
greed to subdue,
All hearts rejoiced- and on Christmas day was
the Christ child born anew.

Tombstone epitaph., 1891-01-18

Politics in the United States are not lasting in their intense feeling of ami mostly engendered during campaign. This fact is locally prominent just at present by the appointment of G. w. Swain by Allen R. English as deputy district attorney during his enforced absence at Phoenix. MT. English and MT. Swain were opponents during the late campaign and the contest between them grew 80 bitter that the night ol the day of election their personal feel ings toward each other had apparently "come to stay" Like sensible men however they allowed this feeling to melt away before the rays of reason There are other disgruntled politicians who might follow their example ant thereby show that they are politicians and not disgruntled office seekers.

Outlook for Cattle Men.

The Live Stock Commission of Chicago have sent out circular letter from which the following extract is taken. "The past year has been a notable one in the cattle trade. Re- ceipts show 20 per cent increase over 1889, and will approximate 3,50O,OOO at Chicago. The markets have not been up to the producers idea, but supply and demand have been the governing factors and tue least let up in receipts has quickly resulted in bet ter prices. Now, as regards the future it will take (4,OOo,OOOO four million cattle to supply the actual demand at Chicago alone during the coming year Our export trade has reached enor nous proportions. Chicago dressed beef and beef products have found friends and buyers all over the civilized world Last years corn crop was short fully 25 per cent. The advance in price has and will prevent many from feeding cattle. Western grazing grounds have been curtailed. With all these facts in view can the country supply weekly average of 77O00 cattle the coming year? If not, we may expect to see much higher prices rule."

 The Globe Dem ocrat says of the pro
 posed transfer of the Indians to the War Department. "The army is called upon now to adjust difficulty that has grown directly out of the condi- lions of attempted rivil government where milita-v control was the only safe and proper thing. We are paying heavy price for d mistake that might have been and should have been avoided-a mistake that has been ap. parent all the time, and yet has been persisted in against the lessons of ex- perience and the dictates ot common sense. Let the army manage the In dians in peace as we'll as in war, and these bloody outbreaks will cease, and the work of civilizing the red race will go forward in a sound and practical way. This is the truth that needs to be gravely considered by congress as soon as possible.

THE STATE FAIR.


The Ladies' Departmental Few Words
About the Exhibition of Art and Fancy
Work
The management and ladies in charge
of this department have made every
possible arrangement for the con-
yenience of those who desire to exhibit
in these classes.
The portion of the Exposition building
which this department occupies has
been newly refitted and will be found
very attractive.
1t is very much desired that the
ladies and childlen of our city and sdr-
rounding towns make special effort
this year. We certainly know that they
arc as skillful as in other cities. The
art and fancy work exhibit has become
the leading feature at all the large ex-
positions and fairs of the country, and
we hope to keep up with the general
move.
The articles for which premiums are
offered in the fancy work department.
embrace all kinds Of knit, crocheted,
needle work, (both machine and HANDY
paper work, braiding and lace, and all
kinds of fancy articles.
Regarding the art exhibits, several OF
the leading art schools have already ar
ranged to place their pupils work on
exhibition, in addition to what they will
have to enter to compete for premiums.
We hope that all the art schools will
take similar interest.
Misses Annie Reymann and Louie
Lang and committee of ladies have
charge of this department., which gives
every assurance of successful exhibit.
