Yuma County FIOarishing.
Sheriff M. J. Nugent returned

Sheriff M. J. Nugent returned from his assessing trip to the east ern and northern portions of the County Tuesday. He says that he found every settlement in the most prosperous condition, the farmers contented and happy over their bountiful crops and the bright prospects before them, that he was more than surprised at the inn provements which they have made, and that when once the permanent flowing watec in the county is di- verted from it's present courses on to the adjoining lands, it will come to the front as a fruit, grain and grass producing region. He says that the miners are prosperous, that the mines are being opened up, and that their development shows that our mines will rank with the best on the coast. The prospecters are out in force and meeting with satisfactory success. Great veins of good gold, silver, copper and iron are being discovered, which hither- to have been hidden from view. Live stock of all kinds is in good condition, the loss during the past year having been less than in any other section of the west. In fact, he says that the progress made in the great valleys of the Gila and the Colorado and those adjoining is such as to warrant the assertion that with her present water schemes carried forward to com pletion, Yuma county will become one of the foremost counties in tn e Territory

 Charlie Landon was down from Mohawk again yesterday looking after the details of his leap year party on the 12th inst. Charlie begins to be perplexed over the prospects of the great crowd of marriageable young ladies that will attend. It is said that our worthy Postmaster is overburdened with the scores of letters that he is receiving, to know how the fair young female writers can get to Charlie's ranch; to know if those outside of Arizona will be barred out, and how they can pass them selves off as coming from the land of sunshine and silver. Yuma's 400 will be represented. It begins to look as if Charlie was goner.

Another Cutting Af'ray.

Sunday evening two more of the high peaked hat Cholos got into an altercation on the street and one Miguel Marcos stabbed Pontio Lomas in the side making a bad flesh wound two inches in length. The deed was committed in front of Louis Esselburn's. Officer Louis Jaeger arrested both parties and placed them in jail. Upon examination Judge Ira Mabbett held the would-be murderer for the action of the grand jury. Marcos wound is a bad one, though not necessarily fatal.
 Monday night Louis Jaeger took a long knife away from Emilio Escacio, another would-be bad man, a cholo. Tuesday he put two more of the same class behind the bars for the reason that they had had a little too much "fire water" and wanted to fight it of.
 Mundo, another of them, pound ed his mistress Sunday night be- cause she still loves the coal heaver Carbinero. She left him Tuesday but returned to his den on We'd nesday.

One of the Three Escapes Cap~
 fuFed.

Thursday the prison hunting force discovered the three escaped prisoners sitting in the thick brush on the bank of the Colorado near the Mexican line. They were or dered to throw up their hands and surrender, which the Mexican did but the two Americans jumped up and ran into the thicker brush out of sight. Shots were fired at them, but the underbrush was too thick for them to do any execution. The Mexican was brought back to pri- son, while the guards and Indians continued the chase after the other escapes. He says that he had had nothing to eat for three days. After the Mexican had been captured, 1t seems that the other two crossed over a slough on to an island to which a couple of the Preciado boys, mere kids, carried their provisions and also kept them posted on the movements of the guards along the road, as they were detected in making signs to the escapes, by a guard and an Indian who were close on to them. The guards and Indians followed their tracks out of the willow swamp and on to- wards Yuma where it is believed the run away prisoners are se- creted.

They'll carry it out, too. It's one thing to make the offer. It's very different thing to make it good. It couldn't be done, except with an extraordinary medicine. But that's what they have. By it's mild, soothing, cleansing and healing properties, Dr. Sage's Remedy cures the worst cases. It doesn't simply palliate for time, or drive the dis ease to the lungs.

 If so, the rest is easy. You pay your druggist fifty cents and the trial begins.
 If you're wanting the $500 you'll get something better-G eNreI

Without q Quorum.

New York World (Dem).
The Democrats have an enormous
majority in the present House. Yet
the Democrats are not just now. IN
actual control.
The Speaker meant this week to
have the Raum report and resolution
acted upon, but a canvass shows that
there is not Democratic quorum
present, and this important piece of
business important from the point
Of view of common morality as well
as from that Of the public service
must go over until after the holidays.
The fact reflects shame upon the
Representatives who have antici-
pated the adjournment on Thursday
and gone home for their Christmas
junketing without waiting till their
work is done.
There is no employment except
that of legislators in which Sinking
Of this kind would be tolerated, none
in which it would not speedily cost
the shirkers their places and their
pay.
Why should it be tolerated in Con
gress
Why should men hired to repre-
sent the people be allowed to absent
themselves at will from their posts
Of duty?
Why should men who are ordi-
narily honest consent in this way to
draw pay for service they do not
render?
1t is time for public opinion to in
sist upon some measure of reform
drastic enough to prevent this scan
dalous neglect of public duty.

We are satisfied that the Peoples
party members will not consent to
cast their votes for either Republi
can or Democrat. The next Unit
ed States Senator from Nebraska
must be on Independent, or the two
old parties must be driven together
in unholy combination against the
wishes Of the people. II an old par
ty man is, elected to the United States
Senate from Nebraska, by all means
let himFbe elected by old party votes.
The Peoples party is in no position
to make any concession of princi-
pies, or to sacrifice the welfare Of the
cause in the future, just to gain a
temporary advantage that will be of
no material benefit to it as party.
Let the other fellows pull their own
chestnuts out of the fire.
