fore that field was bloody one and when
his only contest was with the forces of ma,
ture or possibly with some irate settler or
sQuatter whose ideas of metes and bounds,
title and ownership may have differed from
his own.
This cabin was Washington's Office and
parlor, sleeping chamber and kitchen dur
ing the summer of 174S, when, though only
10 years Of age, he was engaged in survey.
ing the lands of Lord Fairfax, who owned
all the northern part of Virginia under the
kings patent. His companion during this
arduous labor was George William Fair.
fax, a nephew of the old lord, and pretty
well authenticated tradition says that the
boys built the cabin themselves. This ira
dition cannot now be verified perhaps, but
that Washington and his youthful chum oc-
cupied the hut is beyond doubt. He wrote
letters from there frequently. Irving men
tons it as lodge in the wilderness" and
Howe's History Of Virginia" has a half
page about it.
The old hut has been used as a milk.
house within the memory of people now
living. There is but one tree left of the
dense copse that Howe says formerly
shaded it, but the spring still gushes from
the rock near the door as though it would
run on forever. The old elm looks as if it
might be good for couple of centuries
yet, but wind and storm and sunshine have
made sad ravages in the cabin itself, and If
something is not soon done for its preserva-
ton it will inevitably be eradicated by
decay. This should not be allowed, for Of
all the places connected with Washington's
history that are so jealousy preserved by
an appreciative people none is of greater
interest than this, the scene of his first self
reliant embarkation upon the sea of life
when fresh from his mothers home.

HUMAN REASON

Among all the qualities Of man
reason is the only one that has never
been brought to standard perfection"
1t may be universally exercised, upon
occasion, after spasmodic manner,
and it is the rarest thing in the world
to find any person who guides his con-
duct carefully, at all times, by his rea-
son. So unreasoning are we that any
abuse that would alarm and horrify us
If suddenly sprung, after a little tamil
iarity becomes regarded with indiffer-
ence, unless it begins to pinch our
stomachs, and even then for lack OF
reasoning we are prone to ascribe our
deprivations to anything but the true
cause, owing to some one of half
dozen fallacies that constantly beset us.
Something happened and then some
other thing ensued having no sensible
connection with it, but we jump at
once to the conclusion that the
first something caused the last,
like the old peasant in the
poem who declares 1.-THE Goodwin
sands that ruined the harbor were
caused by the Goodwin church steeple"
which was built little before the sands
appeared. This tolerance of familiar
evil may yet one day cause civil war in
our country, owing to popular rage at
abuses whose consequences they feel,
but whose causes they shut their eyes
to, and one more such war will compel
US to repose under a military despot-
ism, the only despotism a fierce De
mocracy will ever tolerate. individuals
often settle their affairs very well by
compromises, because it is possible to
get two or three people to abide by rea-
son, but the more persons engaged in
the dispute, the less hope of peaceful
settlement, because of this very truth
at the head of this article
reasoning has never been brought
to an agreed standard of
perfection. We are nearest to it
when holding to the Golden Rule, but
alas and alack our devotion to that is
mere lip service. Practically the OBJ
servation of that rule would bring our
race to a standard of perfection in rea-
soning as citizens, as neighbors, as en-
ployers and employed, as rulers and
ruled.
Strange as the statement, quoted at
the beginning of this, seems, yet on re-
Election it is exactly true. As painters,
sculptors, as architects, engineers,
teachers, professors, mechanics, farm
ers, we have stands of perfection and
work up to them by trying our best.
When it comes to the use of our reason
we often would seem to agree to do our
worst. And, therefore, on matters
which even child could not make a
mistake as judge, great nations will
plunge headlong into wars! Great COM
munities will persist in doing wrong,
great, infinite wrong that must end in
disaster, rivers of blood, and untold
misery on millions. Strange, contra
dictory creature is man! As the poet
says:
I'm unreasoning progress OF the world
we art guided better than we know"

We rise to endorse Governor Mur- phys veto of House bill No. 32. This bill, if we understand it rightly allows citizens of Mexico to enjoy the full privileges of Amerlcan citizenship by the mere residence of one year in the Territory. Under the bill they are not required to take the oath Of allegiance to the United States or foreswear allegiance to the land of their biIth. This cheapening of American citizenship will find no favor with American people, aud the universal verdict of the people of Arizona will be heard to sustain the veto of our Governor. An American citizen to the manner born must wait 2l years before he would be as good man under the bill as the most illiterate foreigner who have been driven by hunger, oppression and poverty to seek a residence of one year in the Ter ritory of Arizona. American citizen ship was purchased at a high price and has been maintained at too great a sacrifice of money and blood to be thus lightly frighted away. How such a bill came to pass a body of American citizens, the greater portion of whom we believe are native born, is an enigma that is not readily road.

A MYSTERIOUS WARDROBE.
How One Wen Dressed wopan Seemed Nevor to Wear the same Gown Twice.

How One Wen Dressed wopan Seemed
 Never to Wear the same Gown Twice.
 At a reception one guest was the admired of all the men and the en- vied of all the women. The latter were in despair over her gown.
 Ut Is of no use trying to discover her drtssmaker, '" they said. because all her dresses are imported"
 They talked about her always wear ing either white or green, and said she must have a fortune in those two oolors. She had taken to the empire styles particularly, and actually never seemed to wear the same dress twice, and they were all so lovely too. There was the one she had on then, u green s&tin with a square train that fell from between the shoulders, and a white Josephine slip belted across the breast with cord of silver. The sleeves were enor nous puffs of green velvet. Her blond hair and lovely skin completed the picture, and one woman went so far as to whisper to her. "Oh, do wear this dress again; it is so lovely. " But she only looked mildly bored Of course ill natured things were said, too-that her husband could not afford anything like it, and all that So she remained a mystery. and to- night a more lovely one than ever
 Now for the other side of it. She never had but one dress at a time. and if you had jumped at her sud. denly for a given gown she could not have furnished it. Her wardrobe consists of three or four great square trains long enough to come from the shoulders, if need be, and all lined They arc in satin, silk and velvet Some are white and some green. All the greens will go together, by tine way. Then she has a lot of puffs for sleeves, some green and others white. She has ans number up to five frocks that are made empire in one way and another. Twohave trains enough of their own to go either with or without tanother train Then she has of yards of ribbon, sash widths and narrower. She has embroidered pieces of various kinds and lengths and widths. She has a good deal os old lace, a shawl or so her mother had gwen her, some lengths, and so on.
 It Is not meant that she never has a new dress. She has about as much to spend on her gowns as any ordi- nary woman. but not enough to dress in the extraordinary way she does unless by some extraordinary means. She puts dresses together piecemeaL They are pinned on and SewCd on as she stands in them, and in no way can a dress be made tO look So much Q part of the wearer. 4 train ispuckercd narrow at the waist for one time and worn wide as a cloak and from the shoulders the next time Her maid is expert with benzine and pressing irons.

MaYsofConkinr Egg.

A few drops of vinegar in the water for poached eggs makes them set properly and keeps the white from spreading.
 A squeeze of lemon improves scrambled eggs. It should be added while they are cooking.
 Asparagus tops are nice in an omelette.
 Toast spread with patede fois gras and covered with scrambled eggs is fine lunch ish.
 Cold fried eggs can be used for salad CT reyamped by dipping them in fritter batter and frying.
 Fresh eggs taken from the shell snd boiled in half a pint of sweet cream, seasoned with salt and pep per, make a delicious breakfast dish. They should only cook two minutes in the boiling craem.
 Stewed tomatoes, grated cheese and couple of chopped up boiled sausages make a fine sauce to serve with fried eggs.
 Any sort of an omelette can be by-1es addition of -eithsLsar- dimes, tomatoes, oysters, ham, cheese, kidney, mushrooms or maca- roni, or, in fact, whatever one de- sires or has on hand.-New York Observer.

The Trans Mississippi Congress

The Trans Mississippi Congress will be held at Ogden, Utah, April 24. The object of the congress is to discuss all questions affecting the West that may be the subject of legislation at Washington, and to speak through its resolutions to the National Congress. Hence irriga- ton, arid lands, silver, public lands, the policy of the Secretary of the Interior, Pacific and Gulf coast har- bors and many other important questions come up in a body com posed entirely of Western men.
 Several residents of this city have a recollection of hearing heavy explosion about three weeks ago. late at night, and believe now that the finding of the dead man yester- day was the cause of such. Many others believe this death was due to murder, for a railroader was seen to pull out" at a faro game about thirty dollars and disappeared about ten o'clock that night. The entire absence of anything to indentifv the man, may yet make this another foul murder, and that in doing away with the upper portion of the body. all trace oi him would be lost.

Velocity of Raindrops.

Of course we all know that it would be an utter impossibility for storm clouds tO form and rain to fall were it not for the 10 odd miles of atmOs- phere that rises above our heads But supposing 1t were possible for human beings to exist in an atmos- phere that only rose to a level with their mouths, and that stormclouds could form in the region outside such a low grade atmosphere, then every raindrop would prove as fatal to earthly creatures as if 1t were a steel bullet fired from a dynamite gun London Nature.

The following IS the full text of Governor Murphy's veto oi House bill 32, relating to the requirements Tor citizenship:
 To tbe-Honorable The House of
 Representatives:
 a respectfully return without my pproyal, House Bill, No, S2, enti- tied An Act to amend Paragraph 1894, Section 1, and Paragraph 1899, Sec. l, of Title XXI, Revised Stat utes of Arizona;" for the reason that Section ? of the act is too in- definite in regard to what consti- tutes a mans ''election" to become a citizen. The clause in the revised Statutes requiring that an oath be taken to support the constitution of the United States, also the re quirement that the intending citi- zen declare his intention, on oath, before a competent court of record, be repealed. no definition remains m the law as to what is required of a man who "elects" to become citi- zen. Section 2 of this Act only re- quires citizen of our neighboring republic, who shall have elected to become a citizen of the United States, under treaties ratified iH fei ffSiS and 1854, before the Territo- rial government was organized, to live in the Territory one year next preceding an election. in order to have the rights of frshchise, without requiring the assumption of any further obligation, nor the renuncia- tion of his foreign allegiance; which would seem too indefinite and not sufficiently careful of an American citizens most sacred privile.es.
 IT the intention of the Act is to affirm that the treaties referred to, conferred the rights of cItizenship, Nssk0ut requiring any further oath oE declaration ot intention, nor oath to support the constitution of the United States, as provided in Sec ton l5SS, then tt seems immaterial whether the time of rasidence be fixed at six mouths of oao year, and the act would only appear to be re- strictive against citizens of the Uni States who desire to come to Ari- zona to live.
 believe also that it is contrary 10 wise public policy, and against the best interests of our growing Territory to require a years resi- dence in Arizona, instead of six months, of citizens of the United States of the Union, before they can be invested with franchise. The Territory needs, and is receiving, a good class of immigration from other parts of the United States. and any arbitrary action in regard to the privileges of citizenship will be calculated to retard our prog ress.
