MARKS STATEHOOD REPORT.

The Houston, Texas, Post pub fishes what it calls convincing re- port by Delegate Mark Smith in favor of the admission of Arizona as state. It prefsces it with the statement that 'the resources and product, as set forth in the report will be matter of surprise to most people, as the territory has generally been supposed to abound only in minerals" 1t certainly will be a sur prise and to no one will the surprise be greater than to the citizens of this territory. Their surprise Is that Mark could work himself up to such a degree of exaggeration as he ex- hibits in this report. He says:
 The population is estimated at 100000, exclusive of Indians, and upon this basis the territory is clear ly admissible to statehood. The taxable value, according to NIT. Smith, aggregates $30,0OO,0O0, and there are more than 1000 miles of railway in operation in the territory. or course great mineral wealth is claimed, and the products of last year are valued at S23,0OO,0O0."
 The population, three years ago, as shown by the census, was about 6O,OO0 Now, MT. Smith knows that the population has not increased 10000 nor even 10000 since that time. In order to swell the census to 6O,OO0 in 1890 the census takers in some portions of the territory were compelled to enumerate the passengers travelling over the trans continental railways, and to-day a man who is sincere and truthful must say that it is extremely doubt ful If the population exceeds 60OOO. l Mir. Smith is at variance with the | official data of the territory in re- gard to its taxable wealth about S2,- OOO,0OO, the records showing S2s.- 100000 instead of SS0,OO0.OO0. Of | course this is only a slight exagger- ation. Such statements as the above retard rather than help the cause of statehood, as their untruth- tulness is sure to be discovered.

Nitrate of soda Found In Inyo County.
 Qalifornfa


 In the northern portion of Inyo county, in the Armagossy valley, a deposit of the nitrate of soda has been found by party of San Fran cisco proSpectors. The deposit covers about I60 acres of land, and lies upon the surface of the ground to a depth varying from five to eighteen inches, and a strange pe- culiarity about 1t is that when tt is removed another formation soon makes its appearance. In fact, it oozes from the ground like water from a spring, but not in the same degree. When analy zed this de- posit was found to ocontain-varying with the different tests-from 50 to 60 per cent of pure nitrate of soda, and the manner in which it comes freely from the earth renders the supply practically inexhaustible.
 About two miles away a sulphur spring was found, by the utilization of which the impure elements may be separated from the valuable parts and the c-ystalized nitrate se- cured. Besides the nitrate of soda a party found quite large deposit of pure alum and one of kaolin.
 The Nevada Southern railroad, which is now in process of constra- ton, will run almost directly past the deposit, affording easy means of communication with the business world. It is also believed the party discovered a deposit of aluminium, but nothing was said about it. The value of the discovery may be ap- preoiated, if it comes up to the rep resentation of the prospectors, from the fact that nitrate of soda is worth at wholesale over fifty cents a pound Visalia (Cal) Delta.

\ Ease Impression.

"The following item of news is condensed from the JOURNAL MINER of last evening: Arthur, Arthur. Arthur {; Dudley, Dudley, Dudley i; Ninton, Vinton, VInton; Arthur Dudley, Arthur Dudley, Arthur Dudley; Arthur Dudley Vinton, Arthur Dudley Vinton, Arthur Dud- ley Vinton." For the benefit of the public, in explanation, the Courier will state that Mir. Vinton is New York attorney at present in Pres cott, employed in a professional capacity by the r. X X. C. Railway Company, and, like other attorneys, Is simply doing his best for his client. .'-Courler.
 The above, alleged condensation, might convey the erroneous impres- sicn, to one who had not read the JoURNAL-MINER, that an attack of an uncomplimentary nature had been made on Mir. Vinton by this paper This seems to be the impression, at least, intended to be conveyed by our contemporary. Nothing could be wider of the mark, and nothing in the article referred to could be capable of such a construction. The JOURNAL MINER has always con ceded that Mir. Vinton is an able lawyer, considered such even in the metropolitan city of New York. He is accredited, by those acquainted with him, as beng a very genial and companionable gentleman, too. That he is simply doing his best for his client" has been amply by this paper In fact, an attorney of less resources than he, would not have been able to dis cern the law points on which to have based some of the suits that l have been instituted, as they are SO fine that they require 1 the greatest acumen to discern them. The JoURNAL-MNER quite | agrees that he is doing the very best that he can for his client and prob ably better than anyone else can do.

bod rrankIin.. IrIek.

Franklin wrote the following let ter to a man to whom he was lend ing some money: "I send you here with bill for ten louis-d'ors; I do no not pretend to give such a sum, | only lend it to you. When you shall return to your country, you cannot fail of getting into some kind of business that will in time pay all of your debts. In that case when you meet with another honest man in similar distress, you must pay me by lending this sum to him, enjoinIng him to discharge the debt by like operation when he shall be able and meet with another oppor- tunity. I hope then it may go through many hands before it meets with knave to stop it's progress. This is a trick of mine for doing a deal of good with little money"

sELFIsHNEsS THE BASIS OF MONO
 MErALIsr ARGUMENT.

Governor Hughes is reported to hav0 said in his annual report that the gold interests of Arizona are greater than it's silver interests. He is accused on this account of an att tempt to toady to the mouometal- ists of the east. If the governor has properly represented Arizona in his report he must have made the as- sertion charged to him as it is the fact. In some sections silver pre- dominates, but take the resources of the territory generally and gold is the predominating metal.
 While this is the fact, citizens of the territory, geneISlly, with the exception of Tom Parish and one or two others, favor the coinage and use of silver as money.
 The idea that one must not look beyond their own individual inter ests on any question of such vital importance as this, and a question of national import, is unpatriotic in the extreme.
 The argument that if Arizona Is a gold country she must naturally be in favor of gold coinage alone, but if a producer of silver she must favor silver coinage, is to place her people on par with the selfish, sordid, grasping money lenders of the east, who favor monometalism because it is matter of personal gain to them.
 The JOURNAL MINER favors the coinage of silver.
 Because it is beneficial to the great mass of wage earners of the country.
 Because, it has been the money of the world, along with gold, since the earliest history.
 Because a contraction of the cir culating medium, by restricting 1t to a gold basis entirely, appre- | ciates the value of money, making it 1 more difficult to obtain. thereby 1 reducing the wages of the masses.
 Because, aboqe all other reasons, that it is the money os the constitu- ton equally with gold, and the spirit and letter of the constitution will never be observed fully unless silver is c1in"l on a parity with gold.
 The talk that the coinage of sil- Ter at a ratio of Is to l, will es- iablish silver monometalism is sim ply a bluif of the single standard to frighten the country nto Legislation in their behalf.
 There can be little doubt that hey would attempt to carry out as lar as in their power, this threat, put it wonld require only a few years to thoroughly establish silver n the position i, occupied prior to 1873.
 Let the constitution be observed, md let silver be restored once more Is a money metal.

The silver K,ur Min. To-day

The Silver King mine of Pima
 oduty n is tin, one of the great. est silver properties in the world. Is now probably abandoned. For. mer miners of the property know where good viens are yet untouched but generally they are impracticable to reach. Often they are behind waste stored in used chambers in. stead of being taken to the surface and thrown out on the dump.
 The King mine made several men rich and kept a large force employed for years. The mine was practically all developed with its own contents, no outside cepital going into it.
 In the great hollow depths of the mine, where one may wander for hours, is whole forest of timber. A former miner estimates that n million dollars worth of timber are buried in the Silver King. It is hardly worth the removal, however. The same is the case with the en- gines. Their removal would almost offset their value.
 or all the men connected with the mine one, or two at most, are wealthy today. It is even said that none of them are worth anything" to-day, financially speaking- Citizen.

The Man on the Locomotive.

The exactions that modern rail. road speed make on the physical stamina of railroad men is demon strated in the fact that seven engi. neers arc required to take the Chi cago flyer out and seven back. The running time between New York and Chicago Is twenty hours and the average speed is forty-eight miles an hour. Each engineer and engine runs three hours. Machine and man return with slow train to their starting point to relieve the strain on both. Then the engineer is given forty hours rest before he goes on the flyer again. This rest is absolute, no work of any kind being required of the engineer. Though the average speed is forty-eight miles an hour the locomotive must at some points be driven at sixty miles or more. The physical strain on the men in the cab at these bursts of speed is something terrible. The engineer has fifty things to look out for, and is being shaken and swayed all the time. The fireman is con stantly feeding the insatiate fur mace. On the run of the Empire state express three tons of coal are shoveled from the tender into the furnace between Albany and New York. It is not wonderful that the engineers of this train are given al ternate days for rest and recupera- tion. Fast travel not only wears out rails and machines, but human creatures lives.-Boston Transcript.

General T. F. Wilson has sent for seeds of the "tagasse," a new forage plant which Is described as of great value in arid regions. It will pro duce abundantly without ir- rigation, and makes very nch and fattening feed for stock. It is stated that in regions ot the old world precisely similar to Arizona, neavy crops are cut and fed, and that it is a great source of wealth. The general has sent for the seeds to two American consuls abroad, and the agricultu- ral department at Washington Arizola Oasis.

Heating Air by Steam.

A simple and durable construction of
apparatus for heating air by steam is an
nounced among recent inventions. There
are a number of external pipes, within
each of which is an internal pipe of suit
able diameter to allow an annular pas
sage for steam between each set of pipes.
The external pipes are screwed into sock
cts, into which the ends of the internal
pipes are fixed by expanding, as in fixing
boiler tubes. The sockets on the upper
pair of pipes communicate with the
sockets at the ends of lower pair by a
screwed union, which, being first screw
ed into the upper socket, is made good
by screwing up nut. For supporting
the ends of the pipes opposite to the
unions solid plugs are found to hold the
sockets together, the unions and connec-
lions being made with right and left
screw threads. While steam passes in
zigzag course through the annular spaces
between the two sets Of pipes, air pass
ing through the interiors of the inner
pipes, and also the spaces around the
outer pipes, becomes heated. Compared
with other systems for realizing such a
result this is declared to possess decided
advantages.--Ne York Sun.

CRUTCHES.

sstTake this little white powder; Il
will give you a nights delightful
Sleep" says some persuasive FRIEND,
and youlook hesitatingly and longing
Iy at the folded paper which encloses
such longed-for possibilities. 1t IS
hard to lie awake night after night,
hearing the clock strike one, two,
three, four, knowing full we'll that you
will be desperately sleepy when the
rising bell shall send it's tocsin peal
ing through the house, and realizing,
too, that the next days duties will
confront you as an armed battalion,
when you have neither courage nor
strength to face them.
But it is a mistake, believe me, to
take the sleeping powder, unless, IN
deed, your physician absolutely or
ders it. The narcotic, however limo
cent, the sedative, however subtle, is
in it's way crutch, and the use Of a
crutch is always the knowledge of an
infrmity. Furthermore, crutch is
liable to snap or to slip, or to prove
treacherous, or to lose itself or be lost
when most needed, land only cripple,
never a strong man, carries one.
In this whole matter of insomnia
the wiser way is to fight the wakeful
fiend by lying calmly still, with eyes
shut and hands and feet stirless, if you
can. To be genuinely tired by exer-
else in the open air, to detract the
blood from the too active brain by a
light repast before going to bed, and,
above all, not to fret and worry, are
better remedies than the whole range
of the apothecary's shop affords.

Education In Armenia.

The Turkish government looks upon
education as dangerous on general prin-
ciples, and regards printing presses as
devices of satan tending directly to sedi-
dition, and it hates its Armenian sub
jects because they are Christians. The
Christian schools, which have 1abored
under many difficulties for years, are
now subject to a growing pressure Of
persecution. The suspicious of the police
are awakened by the most trifing and
fantastic causes.
A volume of Cicero was seized as trea-
sonable matter because it referred to a
conspiracy. the conspiracy Of Cataline.
A text book on chemistry was interdict-
ed for fear the symbol H2O (oxyde of
hydrogen should suggest the idea .'Ha-
mid III Ghe present sultan) is a cipher"
Sermons on resistance to sin are suspect
ed of advocating rebellion against the
government. The possession of a few
verses Of poetry printed in the Armenian
tongue is enough to send the owner to
prison. of Education.
