THE opinion that Hon. Frank Cox, of Phoenix, will defeat Mark Smith for nominee tor delegate to congress in the Democratic cenven- tion IS gaining groupd.-Nogales Record.
 Hon. Frank Cox is an able man, a good sound Democrat and would make an excellent representative at Washington not only for the party but for Arizona. Notwith- standing the above facts and the additional fact that MT. Cox is ex- ceedingly popular wherever known, we do not believe he could defeat Mark for the nomination should he want 1t. But, if he does get the nomination, the mantle could not fall on abler shoulders, and we know no one whom we would rather see succeed our present delegate.

THE origin of fruit canning, it is said, was first known to the Pom peiians, and to them are we indebted for our knowledge of the industry. When excavations were first made on the site of the old city, jars of figs were discovered by a party of Americans. When these were open ed the contents were found to be as perfect as when poured into the jar nineteen centuries before. Investi- gation showed that the fruit had been put into the jar when heated, and sealed over alter the steam had been allowed to escape. The follow ing year saw the establishment of canning factories all over the Uni ted States.

ANassoeiated dispatch says: One
 of the most important questions to
 be discussed at the meeting of the general manager of the western roads to be held in Chicago on the 7th of next month is that of live stock rates and the question of the efficacy of the system of charging by weight, Superintendent Carman, of the western weighing association, has discovered the rankest kind of irregularities under the present sys- tenn. He claims that cars are often underbilled to the extent of 50 per cent. This is worse than anything that ever existed under the old plan of charging by the carload, and it is probable that at the meeting it will be decided to go back to the old plan, which before resulted in great ly increasing the size of stock cars, every road desiring the advantage of having the biggest cars. If 1t is decided to go back to the old sys- tenn, provision will probably be made for charging different rates for different sized cars.

ORIGINALLY "gotten off" for the pure fun of the thing, jokes have now become a regular article of merchandise, and the professional joker sells these products of his brain at prices ranging from twenty cents to two dollars and fifty cents apiece, and a joke which is easily illustrated often brings as high as five dollars. The magazines and papers which pay for their jokes have regular prices. Professional jokers send supply of from ten to fifty jokes to the papers paying best, and the editor in charge of that de- partment chooses those which suit him, and sends back the rest. These are then sent to the next best pay ing publication and so on, until they reach the papers which pay but fifty cents. Such as are then

AN exchange says: The streets and public grounds of Washington are shaded by oyer seventy thou. sand trees, including eight hundred varieties and species, some of which are to be found nowhere else lr America. These trees have been planted by many illustrious men, from the first President to the pres ent one. There are in the city 331 large and small reservations, the latter being formed by the intersec- ton of avenues, which radiate from the Capitol and White House, with the regular streets. In all, these cover an aggregate of 900 acres, all of which are covered with trees, the care of which, with the nurseries and propagating gardens, costs $75,000 annually.

THE following, which we clip from an exchange, has been known to the boys who have followed the trail for many years: It is said that when cattle utter the roar which is the sign of an approaching stam- pede, they are often checked in what would prove "headlong rush over the plains" by everyone on watch beginning to sing, which at once quiets the nervous animals. Strangely enough hymns, of which the cowboys know a great number, are most used on these occasions.

 There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last foul years was supposed to be incurable.

Science has proven catarrh to be constitutional disease, and there fore requires constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.

THE following special dispatch tC
 the San Francisco Examiner from
 Salt Lake City, dated August 3Oth
 is very significant just at this june
 ture, as 1t shows the feeeling of the
 Administration. The dispatch is as follows:
 The United States Marshal oi
 Utah, Elias H, Parsons, has been
 asked by Attorney General Miller
 for his resignation. Parsons first intimation of his official decapita- tion came in the shape of tele- gram which said that an explana- tion would follow by mail. Another telegram received from Miller today instructs the Marshal to forward his resignation by mail.
 While the news created some stir in political circles it is not entirely unexpected. It has been known for some time that there had been strong influences working to de- throne Parsons. He has never been popular, and it has been frequently charged that he secured his appoint ment by deceiving President Harri- son in regard to his indorsement for the position. When the announce ment was made that he had been appointed there was great surprise expressed. No one could explain how it had been compassed.
 Since his induction into office he has been in hot water, There has been scarcely a month when his name has not been connected with some scandal. One charge against him was that he had an arrange ment with the Mormon Church not to arrest it's members who might be guilty of polygamy. He will send in his resignation to take effect as soon as his successor qualities. William Nelson, managing editor of the Tribune, and Henry Page, Secretary of the Utah Commission, are mentioned to succeed him,
 Following the report of Parsons dismissal a rumor spread on the street and in legal circles that the Judges of the Federal Court, An lerson and Blackburn, had also been asked by Attorney General Miller for their resignations, The impression prevails that there are good reasons for the report. An lerson was appointed by Cleveland md Blackburn by Harrison. The easons assigned for these removals Ire that the Administration is thor ,ughly dissatisfied with the con- luct of judicial affairs in Utah. Both Judges are liked here by the 'eople, lawyers and litigants.
