The Anratum Lily.

1t should be well understood, says
Wick, that the gold banded lily is a tickle
plant. 1t is never long lived, and is fire.
quently disappointing. Nevertheless 1t
is Il plant Of such great beauty that it
is worth many trials to finally succeed
with it. 1t may be raised in pot in tho
house altogether. In planting out it
should be placed in deep, well drained
soil, setting it eight or ten inches deep,
and covering it well with leaves in au-
tumn for winter protection. A site part
ly shaded, or shaded during the warmest
part of the day, is desirable. Donot dig
fresh manure into the soil where it is
planted.

 The men of Cochise are no doubt duly grateful to the Gazette for it's declara- tion of fnon-interierenc in their political affairs. Possibly the Tammany wing of the New York democracy is also grate- ful, or ought to be, in as much as the Gazette did not take an active part in tue late senatorial muddle. Had the Gazette, mingled it's influence with that of MT. Cleveland, the consequences to Edward Murphy, jr., would no doubt have been dreadful to contemplate. Now that the people of Cochise are re- lieved of apprehension, the Gazette ought to extend amnesty to the other counties of the territory.

Novel omcial Custom in Georgia.

In olden times Georgia's governors swore themselves in. They did not have a chief justice or any other off, cial to administer the oath. They sim ply picked up Bible, repeated the form in first person saying: 'I solemn ly swear" etc, and they kissed the book. They did this in the presence of the general assembly, and it was a solemn ceremony. Time passed, that custom died out, and governors had the chief justice of the state to repeat the oath and they would kiss the Bible. When Gen. Gordon was to be inaugu- rated the second time, Chief Justice Bleckley suggested that he get up and swear himself in. It was the old style and it was a good way to do it, said the justice. Gen. Gordon acted on the ad- vice, swore himself in, and was criti- cised for doing it. Some of the papers said he was in such hurry that he did not wait for Judge Bleckley to admin ister the oath.-Atlanta Constitution.

Is Marriage a Failure?

During the past twenty years 32S, 900 divorces have been granted by the courts of the United States, 90 per cent. of them to women. While this total is large enough to appear to give some grounds for the assertion that the per petuity of the family is threatened, it dwindles when brought into compari. son with the number of marriages during the same period. One-twentieth of the total is 16, 400, the number grant ee each year only about per cent. of the number of marriages There is nothing in the world that human be- ings undertake to do that can show so small percentage of failures as mar riages. Though statistics are not at hand to prove it, there is doubt if di. vorces much exceed golden weddings in number. They certainly do not cx- ceed silver weddings in number. h. vestigation of the subject of improper marriages would seem to offer more hope of results beneficial to society than examination of divorce statistics.

STATEHOOD FOR ARIZONA.
A SHATTERED IDOL,

The Hon. Jerry Simpson, who made a sockless race for congress two years ago and won, tried it over again last fall and was victor by a scratch, is now engaged in what IS likely to be boot less race for the senate. Jerry wooed and won large majority of the voters of his district once, captivated not quite so many second time and is now trying to ensnare the legislature oi Kansas. But large stumbling block has heen cast in his pathway by one of his own people-none other than B. II. Clover. Alliance representative from the Third Kansas district. Glover says, over his own signature in letter to the Kansas City Journal, that Simpson in- formed him that he (the saintly Jerry) was drawing a comfortable salary as a sort of attorney for the Louisiana Lot tery company. Mir. Clover makes the specific charge that Simpson, by his own boast, received $3OO from that com pany for killing certain hos tile resolu- tions offered in the Indianapolis con vention.
 That a statesman in whose virtue the people of his state have had such inn plicit confidence should so basely de. ceive is shocking in the extreme. He had taught us to believe him immaculate and we find him sadly freckied. Now that Simpson has fallen, what hope can there be for the republic? The fatal mistake made by MT. Simpson IS the same that has caused the downfall of so many of our brightest public men overwork. He has overworked his op- portunities for obtaining sordid pelf while posing as an enemy of all that savers of plutocracy. For plain man of the people he has been too regardiul of the main chance. His admirers were deeply grieved when he began to ride a bicycle and wear silk socks, but nobody even then suspected him of sinful dal- liance with that wickedest of all mono polies, the Louisiana lottery.
 After this whom can we trust? Even Petfer may be suspected next, and they do say even now that he has fallen into the plutocratic habit of dyeing the gray streaks in his whiskers.
