THE country is to be congratulated on the prospects of a serious attempt being made to bring the laws to bear upon the trusts. This attempt IS the one really good thing that can be cred tied to partisan politics. but if it shall succeed in even curtailing the power of the big trusts its origin will be forgiven if not forgotten. Some time ago sev- eral Shrewd democrats in the house came to the conclusion that it would be beneficial to their party for the house to jump on" the attorney general be- cause of his failure to begin suits against the notorious sugar trusts, un- der the antitrust law passed by the last congress, and resolution calling for the .'whysn and the "whereforesn was introduced in the house and referred to the judiciary committee. This stirred the republicans up, and some of them went to the acting attorney general and told him that something must be done at once to head off that resolu- tion, and the result was that the United States district attorney at Philadelphia this week began legal proceedings against the sugar trust. Meantime the judiciary committee has reported and the house adopted that resolution.

Railroad Notes.

Major C.. W. Vaugn, chief engineer of the S. F., P. & P. railroad, returned yesterday from trip along the entire line from Prescott to Ash Fork. He returned highly pleased with the prog ress that is being made in the construc- ton of the road. He says that the first ten miles of the grade is all completed and that the grading force is scattered along the line as far as eighteen miles out, there being from 500 to 500 men employed While he was at Ash Fork carload of men arrived from Albu- querquc and were rushed immediately to the front and put to work. All the men who apply are given work and Contractors Lantry have agents at a number of towns who employ all the laborers they can and forward them to Ash Fork. From one to two carloads of laborers arrive there now each week. Four engineering parties are in the field. One is locating the line down the hill this side of the summit, while q second one is following this party up and revising the work. A third party is in Chino valley making a permanent location there, working towards Pres colt, while'the fourth party is at work at Point of Rocks, about five or six miles north of town. The contractors will put force of men at work in a few days, grading from ChinQ valley towards Prescott and will cover the en- tire line just as soon as the engineers can turn the stakes over to them to work by, Maj. Vaugn says there is some heavy work between the summit and Limestone canyon which will re- quire about three months to complete, but in the mean time the graders will be at work along the balance of the route, which can be nearly all graded by the time the rock work at the above point is completed. -

THE Democratic editorial convention will be held in Tucson next Monday. It is expected that an interesting con- vention will be held. There will be considerable opposition to the nomina- tion of Mark Smith for delegate to congress, although it is reasonably eer- tain that the majority of democrats of the Territory believe that no other can didate but Mark can win, and they are not sure that he can be reelected.

A Card.

Ireprcsent the Mutual Life Insurance Co. of New York, the largest, oldest and best insurance company in the United Statest. am writing the best forms of endowment and life policies at as low rates as any travelling agent can possibly write them, and can offer advantages that they cannot. The argument that you can buy in the East or of travelling men cheaper than in Flagstaff-a very narrow argument even if true--does not apply to life insurance, for the rates, like the price of postage stamps, are the same throughout the country.
 My home is in Coconino county; l spend my money here and am striving 10 help build up the country, and believe that my bid for the local life insurance business is entitled to more consideration than that of travelling agents who stop in town long enough to get all they can out of it and then depart to spend their profits elsewhere.
 Very respectfully,
 J. H uosEINs.

In the Nick of Time.

The nick of time to stop the course of bladder and kidney complaints is when the organs concerned exhibit a tendency to grow inactive. The healthful impulse toward activity that they receive from Hostetters Stomach Bitters rescues them from impending danger, and averts such dangerous maIadies as Bright's disease and dia- betes. Sluggishness of the kidneys in- crease a liability to chronic rheumatism, gout and dropsy, and since the blood is filtered by these organs in it's passage through them, the operation of the Bitters serves doubly happy purpose. The medicine acts without exciting, like the fiery stimulants of commerce, Malarial, dyspeptic. constipated and nervous individuals are thoroughly re- lieved by it. Since the advent of that shocking malady, la grippe, it has been widely demonstrating it's usefulness as curative and preventive of it.

LIKE all other compromises, the new Chinese legislation fails to entirely satisfy anybody, The majority of the House think the bill passed by the House was preferable, while a majority of the Senate believe that the renewal of the present law for another ten years, which was provided for in the original Senate blll, was all that was necessary. The House had to give up its bill entirely, and the Senate had to accept amendments to its bill extend ing the present laws ten years, pro- viding for registration of all Chinamen now resident in the United States and for one years Imprisonment before being sent back to China of all China men detected in violating the new law, and denying the right of Chinese per sons to be released on bail pending result of writs of habeaS corpus. It is believed by those familiar with the matter that if the new law be honestly and strictly administered it will practi- cally put an end to Chinese immi- UratiOn.

GEORGE w. CHENEY has written an open letter to masterly inactivity M. A. Smith, delegate to congress, for his action Tn regard to the "gold cOin' clause in the funding act, recently be- fore the senate, and in which the words "lawful money" were substituted for 'gold coin.n Delegate Smith urged that the 'gold coin'' clause be retained, notwithstanding that he is an ardent advocate of free silver. Cheney might, while he was about it, have gone far ther and told how the .'gold coin" clause was put in the act by the six teenth legislature, and hold the demo- cratic legislators responsible for the double dealing he lays entirely to Mark Smith.

SENATOR KYLE. in q speech fayorin

SENATOR KYLE, in a speech fav.oring free coinage, which Senator Morgan pronounced the most uuanswerablc yet made, made this allusion to the third party movement: 1.-The people will no longer listen to the appeals of political leaders to refrain from independent party action, and if relief is not given them they will effect a combination that will relegate one or the other of the old parties to the position of third in the race" Senator Kyle said later that he would attend the Omaha con vention. and while he did not care to attempt to predict it's outcome, he was certain that if it nominated satisfac- tory ticket it would receive a larger vote than the people of the Eastern States can now estimate
