IN the February Forum there is an article by Governor Jno. N. Irwin, of Arizona, entitled, "A Great Domain by Irrigation" which is calculated to do much good for the arid region, and es- pecially that part of it comprised by Arizona and New Mexico. The Gov ernor asserts that the prosperity of the people living in the sO-called arid re- zion averages better and higher than the prosperity O those living in any of the sections under the rain-belt of the United States; while he deals with the whole question of irrigation with a bold and practiced hand.-Las Vegas Optic.

German
 Syrup"

Here is an incident from the South Mississippi, written in April, 1890, just after the Grippe had visited that country. I am a farmer, one of those who have to rise early and work late. At the beginning of last Winter 1 was on a trip to the City of Vicksburg, Miss. where I got well drenched in a shower of rain. l went home and was soon after seized with dry, hacking cough. This grew worse every day, until I had to seek relief. consulted Dr. Dixon who has since died, and he told me to get a bottle of Boschee's German Syrup. Meantime my cough grew worse and worse and then the Grippe came along and I caught that also very severely. My condition then compelled me to do something. I got two bottles of German Syrup. I began using them, and before taking much of the second bottle, was entirely clear of the Cough that had hung to me so long, the Grippe, and all its bad effects. I felt tip-top and have felt that way ever since" PETER J. BRIALs, Jr, Cayuga, Hines Co.,, Miss. @

EXCUSES that will bring tears to the eyes of potatoes will not palliate polit- ical treachely. Delegates to the na- tional Republican convention must be Republicans. Neither mugwumps nor hybrid Democrats can fill the bill of expectations. In the convention when the national representatives of the party pledge anew their loyalty and faith to the great principles of Repub- licanism the delegates from Arizona must be with them in heart and deed, as well as by voice. Men false in small issues cannot be trusted in greater ones. National politics spring from local issues. Without the latter the former cannot eXist.-Tucson Citi- zen

Clarkson, in regard to the candidacy of the former for president: Dear Sir: l am not candidate for the Presidency and my name will not go before the Republican National Con- vention for nomination. make this announcement in due season to those who have rendered me their support, I owe my sincere thanks and am most grateful for the confidence. They will, 1 am sure, make an earnest effort in the approaching contest, which is rem dered especially important by reason of the industrial and financial policies of the government being at stake. A popular decision in these issues is of great moment and will be of far reach- ing conseqnence.A

ANOTHER Arizona mining prop

ANOTHER Arizona mining property, which is pronounced by experts to be a valuable one, gets black eye in the courts, the United States Court at Denver having given a verdict against ex-Senator Tabor for Sl6,000 damages sustained by the Kaiser Gold Mining Company of England, which purchased the Old Vulture mine of Tabor The company proved to the satisfaction of a jury that Tabor salted the mine and mill results, upon which showing they purchased the property. They eX- pended SS0,00 on the mine and threw it up when they found it profitless, as by terms of an agreement with Tabor they were entitled to do. They sued for the recovery of the 0,000, and got judgment for one-sixth of that amount

While the people of the western hemi
sphere are celebrating centennials and
sesquicentennials and are getting ready t.,
commemorate their first quadrocenten-
NAL, it seems strange to read in the Euro
pean papers of Publications in small towns
at anniversaries of events of much more
remote date. Basic, Switzerland, cele-
brated the other day the 5O0th anniversary,
not of its foundation which long ante
dates that, but of the union of great and
little Basic. Early in the morning the
authorities and societies of the two parts
of the city met on the middle of The bridge
over the Rhine, and felicitated one another
upon the benefits of the union of 500 years
ago. Then followed a religious service at
the cathedral, grand dinner and a great
out Of door historic play, i'll which l,5JO
actors took part, with 1900 spectators.
The performance consisted simply of four
tableaux with dialogue, solos, choruses
and dances and very effective orchestral
accompaniment. The tableaux repre-
scented first the Emperor Valentinian
founding Basilea out of the half savage
fishing community, then Basic under the
suzerdinty of Bishop Henry, of Thun, and
the building of the first bridge over the
Rhine, then the oppressive rule of Rudolf
of Hapsburg and his downfall at Sempach,
and finally a grand scene with all the
characters united under the wing of Hell
vetia. The costumes and armor made q
most brilliant display.

The conservative University of Virginia
has partially fallen into line in the matter
of the higher education of women, who
will hereafter be admitted to the academ-
ical department under certain conditions.
The conditions include testimonial of
good character and evidence of adequate
preparation, either by certificate or exam
nation. The female students, however,
will not be allowed TO attend the regular
lectures of the schools, and must obtain
their instruction from the professors in
charge in the form of suggestions as to the
text books to read and explanations Of
difficult passages, etc. Examinations of
the women will be held from time to time
on the same subjects as are included in
the curriculum of the men, and to success
full candidates certificates will be given.
The names of the female students are to
be entered on the books of the university
and the privileges of study may be with
drawn at the option of the faculty.

ADA''i' - "i@i-"' social connexions
are excellent. His ancestors fought in the
Revolutionary war, one of them holding a
generals commission.
Mr.. Keim is n cousin of the late receiver
of the Reading railroad, AMI of ex Sheriff
Keim, of Philadelphia. He has fine look
ing wife and an interesting pair of chill
dren, both of whom give great promise as
musicians.
The Socialistic nominee for governor of
New Jersey is thirty eight years old. He
was born in Reading, Pa, where he lived
until he was twenty years old, serving his
time meanwhile as an ornamental house
painter and decorator He got married
soon after in Philadelphia and made his
home in the Quaker City for fourteen
years. He removed to Elizabeth about
four years ago. He worked in the latter
place at his trade until the beginning of
the present year, when he determined to
strike out for himself and accordingly
opened an establishment of his own.

ing elected. He thus explains some matters
in connection with the movement which
may be of inter ST. There are about

bearer because have been very actively
identified with the movement for the past
ten years and fully understand its princi-
Piles. Our chief object in putting a ticket
in the field this year is to test our strength
and also to educate the masses of the peo-
pie to better knowledge of what the real
meaning of socialism is. 1t will also give
us an idea what the outlook will be for
our party as IA political power in the fu-
ture.
THE socialists will not run any candi-
date for president, their highest aim being
the governorship We have no sympathy
or utilization with anarchists, and that is
where the American people make big
mistake when they connect us with these
rabid revolutionists. We want better
system of government than that under
which we are now living-one that will be
fairer in its actions toward the working
men. We believe in legislation to reform
existing abuses, and think that in few
years our party will be strong enough at
the ballot box to command the respect of
the old parties and to help them bring
about better order of things. Our views
are fully set forth in the platform adopted
last year by the American Socialistic La
Dor party and which heartily indorse.'

VERMONT BREEDERS MEETING.

The Vermont association of Road and
Trotting Horse Breeders will hold its
eighth annual summer exhibition at
Rutland, August 30 and 81 and Septem-
Der l, 1892.
This association, founded on one of
the chief industries of the farmers of our
State, was organized in 1885 for the pur-
pose of advancing the legitimate interests
of Vermont breeders of road and trottlng
horses. The success it has achieved in
this direction has far surpassed the ex-
pectatlons of the most sanguine. At
the last meeting held in Rutland there
were more than 1000 horses on exhibl-
ton, and all previous colt records of the
State were broken.
Intending purchasers from all parts
of the country have so frequently attend
ed and so many sales have been made
that the association has organized and
will hold its second annual public sale
In connection with its coming meeting,
of about 60 horses-matched and single
drivers, stations, brood mares, colts and

offered by the association in stakes

The list of entries is the largest in the
history of the organization. Three oil
more races will be trotted each day anG
grand exhibition of stock by families
President Harrison, whose carnage
horses were bred in Vermont, attended
the last exhibition. and Secretary Rusl
was only prevented by sickness in hi;
family: he sent an expert to report the
meeting to the agricultural department
of the government.
Vermont-bred horses, having furnished
the foundation for Kentucky horses

after for breeding purposes in the West
The writer knows of one breeder who
has sold over $1,000 worth this summer
and of others who have orders for man,
more.
