A dispatch from New Orleans says.

A dispatch from New Orleans says:
The Elm Hall sugar plantation of Leon
Goodchaux, iG Assumption parish, closed
the rolling season Monday, having turned
out the immense amount of 4,2so,ooo
pounds Of sugar. on which Mr. Goodchaux
will get $4,000 bounty from the United
States. II Is one of dozen plantations
owned by him, who will be the largest m
dividual receiver of bounty in the United
States, and Will receive something more
than $2soooo from the government.
For the producing of Is,soo, 900 pounds
of sugar this man Is given bounty OF
$aso,ooo. The whole people of the United
States are taxed to make up this bounty to
this one man. There is no juggling, no
mysterious Nay about this matter. This
man will 60 before the secretary of the
treasury of the United States, make the
necessary proof that he has made that
much sugar and he will receive his war
rant Tor this vast sum of money. From a
republican standpoint this bounty system

Continental money was the title given to
the bills Of credit issued by the congress Of
the united colonies Of America, during the
war for Independence. When that wal
broke out Spanish coin was the drinciple
metallic currency in the colonies. Its
quantity was entirely Inadequate for the
emergency, and when the war was fairly
commenced, after the battle Of Bunker Hill
the congress- initiated some Of the colonial
governments and issued bills Of credit.
During ITS bills TO the amount Of $1,000,
900 were issued Other issues were made
until at the beginning Of 1880, their bills Of
credit had been put forth 10 the amount Of
s200, 900, 600, with promises to be redeemed
in Spanish milled dollars. After the sec
ond year Of their emission (1777) these bills
began 10 depreciate rapidly, for the pros
poet Of their redemption appeared very re-
mote and problenatical. Various meas
ures were adopted 10 sustain their credit,
but in vain. They deprecated more and
more rapidly. In 17S0. 40 paper dollars
were worth only one in specie, and in 1881
they were utterly valueless. They had af-
forded temporary relief, but were finally
productive Of much public evil and individ
ual suffering. These bills are now rare oh
jects in the collections Of the curious.

Our esteemed cotemporary, the Herald,
says that there is one question which tariff
reformers have failed to answer and that is,
why all articles are cheaper now than before
the new tariff went into effect. 1t does moi
need any answer. The public generally
understands that the Herald's position ii
not true. If putting tariff duty on ar
article lowers the price of that article, why
is it that taking the duty off also lowers the
price? The Herald has not, norcan it an
swer this question. Everybody knows thai
tin sells higher, and sugar lower in the
markets than before the passage of the Nc
Kinley bill, and whyp Simply because
that bill increased the duty on tin and pui
sugar on the free list. The people under
stand these plain simple truths and they ar
able to trace the cause, and no amount O
| juggling or sophistry can gainsay them.

Southern Oregon. Mrs Candy was left

number OF citizens OF Portland raised a
fund for her amounting TO $500, which
was accepted for her by General John L

clause OF which was quoted in the letter
accompanying my check, as follows
"Five thousand dollars, the gift OF my
Portland friends, ask them to take
back and use it in charities, or as they
may think best. Many blessings have
gone to them for their generosity" "Tht
s400 received by me was the amount O
my subscription, given without the re
motest idea or wish Of its being returned

The young clerks eyes flashed as he
read an article in the morning papers.
1t was an outrageous attack upon the
gentleman at the head of his department
for course of action which was repre-
sented as both base and cowardly. All
the correspondence relating to the affair
had passed through the young mans
hands, so he knew that the published
statements were false and most damag-
ing to the reputation of his beloved chief.
Carrying the paper to the gentleman
assailed he asked if he might write re-
ply. The elder man read the paragraphs
calmly, smiled and shook his head.
"What will you do' the clerk asked.
Live it down." was the reply, las !
have done so many other calumnies.
Talking back is the most futile and I'M
diguified exertion in the world. If you
succeed in cutting up one falsehood
each part will begin to wrisgle against
YOU. Let it alone and it will die OF
starvation. Youths companion.

THE ELECTRIC ROAD.

1t seems now to be a free-ior-all race
among the holders of different street
electric railway privileges as to who
will be in operation first.
Yesterday General Sherman's men
rather took things by surprise, but it
was not long before it was known that
the poles, dynamos, wires, trolleys and
other paraphernalia, for the purpose OF
operating electric cars on all the present
lines in the city, were at the depot.
This looks like business. We hope
the Sherman line will be followed i'm
mediately by the three other concerns,
and then Phoenix will have travelling
facilities commensurate with her grow
ing Importance.
The connection OF the immediate sub
urban additions by electric transit with
Phoenix and likewise the growing towns
down the valley will appreciably slim
ulate all branches Of trade.

STATEHOOD FOR ARIZONA.
WORLDS FAIR COMMISSION.

The action OF the worlds fair commits
sion in voting $1,000 to put up club
room at Chicago lSxl9, for the benefit
of those people who may 90 on to the
worlds fair, instead OF appropriating
the same for the projected relief map is
q general surprise. The investment in
a club house will bring no possible re
turns to the taxpayers of this territory,
and be of no visible advantage at all.
The appropriation of the $4,000 for a re-
lief map carried with it the positive
pledge OF $4,000 more from Eastern
parties for the same purpose-all Of
which would have been spent in Mari
copa and adjacent counties. More than
that, the incalculable value of this re-
lief map is self-apparent. 1t would
mark out every canal property, every
ranch, and show by the plsinest pos
sible methods the position OF over 1900
square miles of fertile valley lands, now
under and susceptible of irrigation.
Maricops county is entitled to some
thing over $4,000 as her pro rata OF the
worlds fair fund. She has received
about sll00. 1t is both pertinent and
proper question to ask the commission
what is to be done with the remainder.
This is matter OF the highest import
ance to this city and valley. For what
is the remainder OF that fund to be ex-
pended? Club houses? If so, let us
know it at once.
