The stockmcn of Arizona arc very much exercised over the Wyoming governors quarantine proclamation, having conceived the erroneous idea that under its provisions no cattle from south of the 37th parallel can be taken into that state. The proclamation only prohibits their being unloaded at any point in the state, to be driven DOT ton of the way, and it is believed that the objection to the edict can be over- come by the united efforts of the repre- sentatiyes of southwestern stock inter- ests to convince Wyoming's executive of the injustice of his action.-- Exchange.

A representative of an eastern illus lrated weekly, which he claims equal to Harper's, of course, did Albuquerque for several hundred dollars. He told big story, before departure, about a wonderful trip he intended to make, an investigation of the Grand Canyon. There has been host of his class who have visited here.

Cattlenleu,

The Territorial Cattle Sanitary board closed its sessions this morning. It was decided to go to Las Vegas this evening to confer with the cattlemen from various sections of the territory, who will be there attending the irriga- liou convention, about the cattle situ- ation, and to talk over matters of interest to those in the business. Yes tcrday afternoon the Executive com mittee of the New Mexico Cattle Groweas' association was also in session at Secretary Brooks office. They re- viewed the work of the year. and de- bated the subject of having territorial inspector located at Kansas City. They also discussed they question of needed legislation for the cattle growers of the territory.

Cost of Handling sheep in New
 Mexico.
 It is q matter of some surprise to note how cheaply sheep are handled in New Mexico. Wages paid herders and the men in charge of focks run from sl5 to s25 per month, with board. The average cost per sheep year, all expenses, is variously estimated from 25 to 60 cents. An American owner of perhaps the best improved flock in New Mexico places the cost at 60 cents per sheep year. The annual cost in several counties is summarized as follows:
 San Miguel county, 80 cents by Mex jeans and GO cents by Americans; Eddy county, 30 to 40 cents; Colfax, 50 to 60 cents; Chaves, 35 cents; Taos, 45 cents; Rio Arriba, 80 cents; socorro, 50 cents; Valencia, 20 cents; Bernalillo, 30 cents.

COSTLY ARIZONA INKsrAND.
A Present to President Lincoln by au
 Arizona Admirer.

Arizona Admirer.
 AS dip my pen into my instand to- day l am reminded of a little incident which camo to my knowledge some time ago, says writer in the Christian Advocate. When Abraham Lincoln was President of the United States he was presented with an iukstand which cost Sl362. Think of that, children! Que of the delegates to Congress, an Arizona man, was such an admirer of Mr. Lincoln, and became so fond of him, that he wished to give him some token of his esteem and friendship. He procured four hundred ounces of silver from mine in Arizona, aud sent it to Tiffany's, the largest jewelry and silverware house in New York, to have it moulded into an inkstand. It was handsomely made and decorated, and Tiflany's bill for the work was SS62. The cost of the silver alone was $500. l do not know whether Mir. Lincoln ever used this inkstand, for it was only presented to him about month before his death, but it stood on his desk in the White House at the time of his as- sasination, and it may be that some of the eloquent words and messages which thrilled the hearts of the Northern people at that time were written with ink from this inkstand. Mir. Lincoln was very plain man, and had very simple tastes, but l am sure he valued the inkstand as a work of art aud as a mcmento of the love and respect of q true friend,
 The inkstand is in possession of Robert T. Lincoln, of Chicago, and it is rumOred that some day it will be put in conspicuous place, where it may be seen and admired by the public, Who knows but it may be placed in the Worlds Fair on eXhibition? So keep your eyes open, my dears, when you visit Chicago in 1893.

GRADY IN VIRGINIA.

Great news, this, from Virginia. There
hasn't been so much excitement down there
since the battle of Bull Run or the hanging of
John Brown. Grady-our Tom" the Police
Justce-has been turned loose there, and has
lust been heard from at Lynchburg, where an
immense gathering Of enthusiastic Democrats
greeted him. From the account of it in our
warm hearted Cleveland contemporary, 1.-The
New York Sun" we should say that nothing
short of the slipping of his collar by the gyas-
cutus could have produced anything like the
overflow of emotion and turbulence Of feeling
that Grady started and kept going for two
hours. during which there was hardly sufficient
pause to permit one Of the enraptured audience
to 90 out and irrigate his tonsils. Grady has
struck the Virginia Democracy-if we may be
allowed figure of speech-sQuare in tho
stomach He has landed there, so to speak,
with both feet. Talk about Adlai Stcvenson's
sweeping North Carolina with the left hind
foot of a graveyard rabbit or Grover Ceve-
lands carrying the outlying neighborhood of
Buzzard's Bay with hell-grummets' ! They
are not in it," It's Grady who is really doing
the business Of the campaign. The Democratic
National Committee builded better than they
knew when they loaded up Grady's mouth and
started him off with fuse on it calculated
precisely for the latitude of Virginia 1t went
off, and Lynchburg was spebound"
Gradys mission was to tell the people Of
Virginia that their aiberties were in danger
lie did it for two hours at Lynchburg "The
Sum- says he depicted it in burning words,
and the audience was spellbound under his
logic" "The Sum- correspondent may have
been mistaken as to their being spellbound by
his logic; it is quite possible that they may
have been dumfounded by the rapid working
of his large and fluent mouth, but that is of
small consequence-they stayed, whether spell
bound or dumfounded, and, as "The Sun"
says, "were repaid by the mastery discourse
which he delivered" He does not seem to
have touched the tariff, OH which there are
differences of opinion among Mr.. Cleveland's
supporters; or the silver question. which they
are not quito agreed concerning; but on the

that the success of the Force bill will sound
the deathknell of American liberty" it is not
likely. whatever was the condition of their
threats. that there was dry eye in the audi
ence. For it is on this point that Grady Is at
his best When he thinks of American liberty
as it is understood in Fourteenth-st. in this
city. and reflects upon the possibility OF It's
deathknell being sounded at any moment by
the triumph of party which has controlled
the Government for the last thirty-tw years,

THE DOUBTFUL FATE OF THE METROPOLITAN.

The judgment entered by default on Wednesday
against the Metropolitan Opera House Company. IN
favor OF Earl Clinton Potts {, of the preliminary
proceedings toward the winding up Of the companys
business affairs and the sale Of the house. The sum
which Mr. Potts claims comprises it is said, the whole
floating debt Of the company. The most Of its debts
to its own directors and stockholders and all
that were known TO exist have been transferred to
Mr.. Potts, who thus undertakes TO collect them.
The final foreclosure OF the second mortgage Of 2lo
600 on the house, and the sale OF the property will
probably not take place till several months hence,
there IS much preliminary work to be done.
AS yet there have been enthusiastic denonstra
tons the part OF any Of the stockholders in regard

some among them doubtless have schemes and plans
Of their own which they would be glad TO induce the
others to adopt. and much talk and discussion will
doubtless be gone through before any conclusion Is
