Tucson Ice Works.

This establishment is one of those industries that should be most heartily encouraged in Tucson. It has been an indispensable sJurce Of comfort to this city since the Arctic Ice Comp ny es- tabllshed it's works at this point. To need cool drinking water and not have it is 8 misfortune. but to have great blocks of Arctic Ice Co. s ice left at your door morning and evening is great comfort. There was tune when ice was luxury, but today it has become fixture and is retaIled and delivered daily throughout the city. It has be cone daily household commodity and as such IS as much identified with the health of the Inhabitants of this city as the daily food which is sold m open markets. The Arctic Ice Company of Tucson under the management and ownership of Royal A. Johus0p is an institution that should receive the fullest patronage. It IS credit to the city and a great convenience.

Stand Not Upon the Order of your
 Going"

EDITOR CITIzEN:-Though we may not belieee in 1hs bibls as a sacred book or divinely inspired there are in 1t many sayings certainly the Quinteysence of world wisdom, applicable to human exl eriences iu all times and through all ages. I was driven to ttis train of thought from reading the fate that has overiaken the San Francisco Stock Board and said to myself: "Ye sowed the wind, ye shall reap tte whirlwind." The Stock Board fer a time controlled the finances of the Pacific Coast and the fate of mines WAS decided by its baro- meter regardless of their intrinsic merits. Such a controlling factor was the Pacific Stock Board that for many years past Caif0rniaos especially deemed in min
 ing to deal in stocks (most of them really worthless) upon the San Francisco marts. Probably the action of the PacI- fic Stock Board has done as much as any one thing to throw mines into the hands of foreign capitalists. A species of gambling is taught a possible not probable road to wealth without the labor of the hands and this has always a great attraction for the many. Many 8 servant girl, drayman, hotel runner, clerk and toilIng miner have for years kept their noss on the Stock Boards grindstore willingly. perhaps. them
 selves turning the crank, so tbat it's de- mise may be looked upon as something that can be borne. Still, as it is a bad sign to see gamblers leaving a mining camp it marks the decline cf SaL Fran- cisco as a mining cent9r. Good bye. You did what hurt you cou'd to the many for the benefit of few and your evil race is run. OCCASIONAL.

EASTERN MEN OUT WEST
The Various Employments fn
 Which They Are Found.
A New Yorker Makes Some Queer Dis cOveries in Journeying Towards the Pacific Coast - The VicissI-
 tudes of Fortune.

The men who are of interest in the ' west, and of whom most curious stories
 might be told, are the eastern men
 and the Englishmen who have sought
 it with capital, or who have been driven
 there to make their fortunes. Some one
 once started somewhat unproftable
 inquiry as to what became of all the
 lost pins That is not nearly so curi-
 Ous, according to a writer in Harper's
 Weekly, as what becomes of all the liv-
 ing men who drop suddenly out of our
 aequaintanceship or our lives. and who
 are not missed, but who are neverthe-
 less lost. l know now what becomes of
 them; they all go west. I met some
 men here whom I was sure had left in
 New York, and who told me. on the
 contrary, that they had been in the
 west for the last two years. They had
 once walked Fifth avenue. but tbev
 dropped out of the procession one day
 and no one missed them, and they are
 out here enjoying varying fortunes.
 The brakeman on freight and passen-
 ger train in southern Texas was a
 lower-claSs man whom I remembered
 at Lehigh university only as an expert
 fencer. The conductor on that train
 was from the same college town. The part owner of a ranch, whom I SUD- posed had left looking over papers in the club, told me he had not been in New York for year, and that his partner was Jerry Black. who. as trust no one has forgotten, was one of Prlneeton's half backs, and who I should have said, had anyone asked me, was still in Pennsylvania.
 Another man whom I remembered as a society" reporter on a New York paper, turned up in a white apron as a waiter at a hotel in -. l was some what embarrassed at first as to whether or not he would wish me to recognize him, but he settled my doubts by wink ing at me over his heavily-loaded trav. as much as to say it was very good Joke and that he hoped l was appreciat- ing It to its full value. We met later in the street, and he asked me with the most faithful interest of those whose dances and dinners he had once re- ported, deprecated a notable scandal among the people of the four hundred, which was filling the papers at that time, and said could hardly appreciate the pity of such a thing occurring people of his set. Another man whom had known very we'll in New York turned up in San Antonio with an entirely new name, wife and fortune, and verified the tradition which exists there that it is best before one grows to know man too well to ask him what was his name before he came to Texas San Antonio seemed particularly richin histories of those who came there to ;hange their fortunes and who had changed them most completely. The English gave the most conspicuous ex- lmples of these unfortunates-conspi iOus in the sense that their position at nome had been so good and their habits 'f life so widely different.

Democratic Me eting at Park Square

OemOcrat1C He6CluS z at Y arK Sq uar0.
 Last night about o'clock the Phil harmonic band marched to Park Square ard rendered a dissertation of campaign music. Upon the platform or band stand were gathered Delegate Smith also the Smith club and Judges Lowell, Barnes, Satterwhite and others. After the mu,ic ceased Delegate Smith was introduced, who addressed himself principally to the members of the young Democracy, going back to Jeffer son days and also recItipg his (SmIth's) past record in congress and his past and prescott attitude to the land grant ques- tion and after quoting the principals of both political parties advised the mem beis of the Smith club to stick to Demo cracy, and particularly stick to Smith. Judge Barnes was next intro~ duceG, it was evident that the Judge entertained the most pleasant memories of Cleveland's reign, for he sprang into the arena of political debate as if spurr- ed on by two spurs Tn each flank and an urger in the shape of an upralsed politi- cal whip and with one swell swoop of his oratorical arm' desired to wipe inc Rerublican party from the scenes of its glories and triumphs. The judge paint ed the 6ll evil picture for the RepublI can party and the all good picture for the Democratic party. The next speak CT was Judge l. we'll. Mir. Lowell made an unnecessary apology In his own be- halt ID the spirit that be was unable 10 follow along the path gone over by the distinguished delegate from congress. This was not verified because the Dis trict Attorney made the best speech of the evening. and by the discussion Of the law of needed prohibition cf foreign labor invasion of this country went to prove that the District Attorney was now getting a glimpse of the lamp of Repu blicar ism that has been shedding its intelligent rays upon the subject for several years past. After the close of Attorney Loyell's remarks the band rlayed and upon the cessation of the music, Mir. Abe c Goldbaum, chairman of the Democratic club, came forward and thanked those Ir-eent and dismissed the meeting. The attendance was small
