An enormous group Of spots on the sun is now
visible; and storm of exceptional intensity de
vclopcd in the United States last week. The dis
turbed area on the orb of day measures 100000
by 10000 miles and has been unparalleled in
extent though perhaps not in activity for about
seven years. At the centre Of the cyconic sys
tenn which preceded our latest gales and cold wave
the barometer Friday morning read about
$50 inches. One need not 20 back many months
for precedent for this; but it is unusual read
ing for the North Atlantic Coast; and The rrb-
uncs readers need not DC told that the attendant
winds and cold are, for this winter at least out Of
the ordinary. Too much significance should not
be attached 20 this one coincidence between solar
and terrestrial storms; but it is worth noting "a
another contribution to thr stock Of evidence
gradually accommodating tending TO prove that
some kind of relation exists between the two
classes Of phenomena.

Out in Mercer County, n. j., the Board Of
Freeholders have decided to buy farm of 100
acres in order to provide work for the prisoners
in the pcnitcntiary. Tor several winters Trenton
has been ovcrrun with uampS, who have rcsorted
to various devices to get committed to the pcnien-

the report of the Fire Marshal, which we publish

originated in the eevator-shaft in the vicinity
of the third floor and was caused by the lighted

party of Arizona with debasing the honest la bor of the territory by arraying against it the competition of convicted criminals-a compe- tition that placed the cell of the felon against the home of wife and children, the whip of the taskmaster against the dignity of men laboring for love of home and heartbstone-by passing during the last legislature-in which body out of e total of thirty-si members the Democratic party had twenty seven a law authorizing the le Asing of the convict labor of the Territorial prison. and we ask from every laboring man a comparison between this action of the Demo cratic legislature and the acton of the Repub- hcan governor in vetoing the measure.
 Recognizing that no factor in the future de- velopment of the west can be so potent as bet ter and cheaper railroad transportation, and realizing from the history of the past the grow ing danger to the public welfare of the enor- nous power and telegraph lines, we believe and urge as public necessity that the owner ship of all railroad and telegraph lines, be vested in the general government and pledge ourselves as Republicans to labor to the ac- comp ishment of that end,
 Large bodies of land in this territory are held by various corporations, under congressional land grants on which no taxes are paid owing to their not being surveyed and patenter. We pledge our representative to urge upon congress immediate action to have their grants and their unsurveyed land surveyed, and thus in- crease the taxable roperty by many thousands of dollars We urge upon congress the ceding to the different states and territories of all arid lands now held by the federal government.

Americans in nrit,sn Politics..

The American edition of The Review of Reviews pays its respects to several Americans who have figured in politics in Great Britain both during the recent campaign and before. The Review does not find that they covered themselves with glory, and is of opinion that they might be in better business than meddling with English politics, espe- cially in the particular way in which they have chosen to exploit themselves.
 Of certain of our former citizens now in England the editor of The Review ob- serves:
 The curious hasco of Mir. Henry M. Stanley's attempt 70 get Into parliament as Q Chamber lainits from a London constituency was one of the sensations of the campaign. Mir. Stanley will have small sympathy on this side of the water. With Henry M. Stanley posing as an enemy of Irish home rule, with William Henry Hurlbert's notorious misrepresentation of the Irish question in tho interest of Tory landlords, with George Washington smalley sneering pe- rennially at Mir. Gladstone in the New York Tribune and with Harold Frederic playing tho part of facie journalistic tool for the desperate scheme to rehabilitate Sir Charles Dilke we have e very sorry quartet of American med dleps in English politics, and 1t Is scant credit they do to the opinions and convictions of the republic that they so egregiously misrepresent. Their performances are a source of mortinca- ton to the mass of right thinking Americans.

 Ed Lopez and Rafael Miranda in- dulged in friendly altercation last night over in "Chihuahua." Rafael couldn't see the point of Eds argu- ment, so he enforced it by a couple of shots, one of which made an ugly wound in the groin, and passing within an eighth of an inch of the iemoral artery. Dr. Wright was at once called and after dressing the wound pro- nounced it not necessarily fatal. The patient is resting easily at this writing. Constable Bowman cleverly gathered Ed in about 2 o'clock Tn the morning, just as he was starting for Sonora Prospector.
 The Sykes brothers of Flagstaff, never having attempted the passage of the Grand canyon in boat, must have received their notoriety from news papers alone. About year ago they advertised themselves pretty exten- sively as intending to circumnavigate the world in small boat which they built at Flsgstaf, and shipped on a fiat car to Needles, where it was launched in the Colorado river. They made the voyage down the river to Yu- ma, where they anchored for several days. On resuming their trip they succeeded in getting few miles down the iiver, but failed to reach the ocean when their boat was destroyed by fire. The only notoriety the boys have gained was through this incident, some people being nncharitable enough to hint that their boat was not burned ac' cidentally y.--Journsl Miner.

A soientinc spirituaIist.

"He held the cranks down." was said of the late Colonel John c. Bundy, editor of The Religio-Philosophical Journal, of Chicago. With equal truth it might be said that he held the frauds down as well. He was unalterable in his convic- tion of the reality of communication be- tween spirits in and out of the flesh, but To man ever pursued fraudulent "me- diums" and manifestations more merci- lessly than he. He held that the cause of spiritualism could in no way be bet ter served than by unearthing the frauds and tricksters that have so gathered about it as at times to well nigh disgust all decent people with its pretensions.
 No materialistic scientist, no strict or thodox priest or preacher ever more zealously hunted to the earth the frauds practiced on the public in the name of spiritualism than John c. Bundy did. He was, moreover, one of the dearest headed, coolest, most intelligent men of his time, with brain packed full of shrewdness and common sense. Yet he held that after a thorough sitting and exposure of all the tricks and cheating, whereby unprincipled professional me- diums make @ living off public that dearly loves to be gulled, there still re- mains undoubted evidence of communi- cation between departed spirits and those in the flesh. He certainly had right to believe so if he chose.
 To the scientific establishing of his faith and to psychic research generally he devoted his life and his paper. His unquestioned sincerity and his trained power of scientific reasoning fitted him peculiarly for the task he had under taken, and his death must therefore be great loss to psychic research in America. The increasing number of authenticated facts in hypnotism, clair voyance, thought transference, as well as the remarkable cures of disease by no known medical means, show there is wonderful field opening be- fore the investigator of mental science. Whether one goes in for spiritualism or not he must regret the death of g man whose journal was devoted to the examination of such psychological facts. Colonel Bundy was president of the council which was organizing worlds psychic congress, to meet during the fair at Chicago.
 It Is pleasant to recall that Colonel Bundy was man of pure and gentle life, devoted to his family, and an ad- mirable member of society in every re. spect. Of him it may be said that he believed in spiritualism and hated hum bug.
