The London Vanity Fair says: "The
population of Russia at the beginning of
the year numbered about l2400O,0OO
souls. These are distributed in the fol-
lowing manner: In the fifty governments
of Russia in Europe there are about 3d.
100000 inhabitants; in the Vistula coun-
try, 5000, 900; in the Caucasus, S, ,006, 900;
in Siberia, 4,750,0O0; in Asia, 6,1OO,OOO,
and in Finland, 2,3S0,OO0. These figures
are worthy of note. The Russian army
in time of peace numbers about $40, 900
men, which, compared to the population,
is but small number. Other countries,
such as Germany and France, have al
ready more than one per cent of their
population permanently with tile colors.
Should the Gear one day. by single
stroke of the pen, choose to follow the
example, of other European powers, he
would be in command of by far the
lorgest number of men, under one sover-
eign, in the world.''

The strike of coal miners through out the east is due to the heavy cut recently made in their wages, and their inability to live thereby. While all strikes have more or less hasty action and little consideration back of them, this gigantic outbreak of these laborers is nevertheless one in which the men affected, cannot but have their course fsvorab' y considered and approved by every body. The placing of coal on the free list is n bombshell to the man who works below, and sustains any man or corporation in demanding from his employee, the peonage that goes with cheap labor. The mere agitation of free coal will do the same. for all corporations. whether heartless or not will guide their affairs in accordance with the discussion of the day, and are only too anxious to have any excuse to cineh their employees, but the peo- pie as we'll.

The industrial army is rapidly approaching Washington and as it closes the gap between labor and capital, the situation is becoming one of seriousness and alarm. The organization of this body and the humorous discussion of its objects has suddenly changed, and as its ranks grow every hour with the un- employed and the skilled mechanics of the nation, there is an undercur- rent rolling that precedes only the meeting and clashing of two great issues. As the industrial army has grown so has the number of strikes. This cannot be taken, however. as an indication that men are anxious to join in this display of labor and have deserted their posts solely for
 that reason, but it is brought on by the stagnation of business and after patience has been worn threadbare in hoping for release from poverty and the wages which go with it. There are men of both political par ties who are advocating the princi- pies of their respective parties as a remedy for the evils of to-day, in which no solution can be offered to stop the present advance of the labor army, simply because it is too late. While general feeling of re- gret seems to prevail that such a large number of unemployed men should be compelled to march on to the capitol of the nation there to have their ills righted, the demon stration the country is now witness ing is ope, nevertheless of patriotism and the independence which char acterizes the average American, and Washington is just now the place where lawmakers can be brought face to face with their people and properly appreciate the folly of their own legislation. The greater the number of men who reach the camping ground the nobler will their principles be. It is not a question of politics, but it is a question of American honor aud manhood, and of which the present administration is the mouthpiece.

The Harvard Branch Observatory.

Prof. A. E. Douglass has been in Arizona for some time looking for a location for a branch of the Harvard observatory. For the past two weeks the professor has been mak .ng ob- servations from points near Flag staff. and he found the atmospheric conditions here the best in the terri tory for the purpose. Monday word was received from Percival Lowell, If Boston. who will furnish the necessary funds, that the observa- tory will be located at Flagstaff. The site selected for the observatory is on Crater mountain, south of the Arizona Cattle Co.'s ranch, and work on the building will begin as soon as the materials. which have been ordered, arrive.

Recently Senator Sherman pre- cipitated a discussion in the nature of free silver debate by the intro duction of a resolution yesterday directing the committee on judi ciary to examine and report whether the mining of United States coins of the same weight, metal and fine ness, except as authorized by law, is made criminal by the acts against counterfeiting coins of the United States and other countries, and if not, to report a bill to prevent and punish such stimulation. He sent to the clerks desk and had read press dispatch from Omaha, Neb., stating that there was a private mint there which was engaged in coining silver dollars of the same weight and fine ness as the standard silver dollar, making their profit on the difference between the actual value of the sill yer and the coined value, a profit of about 5I cents on the dollar. .-Arkan- sas Pass Beacon.

COURT NOTES.

Judge Cooper yesterday granted
ID. NJ. Crowley discharge from all
his debts, and signed an order to
that effect.
Proof of the will of Naholowaa
has gone over until Monday next.
The matter of the administration
upon the estate of F. S. Pratt has
gone over until April 9th next.
w. G. Parke, guardian of Fred.
G. Kirchoff, has been authorized to
expend 800 of the principal for
maintenance of the ward.
The account of G. e. Boardman,
assignee of the bankrupt estate OF
James Mott, Jr., has been approved
by Judge Cooper, and the assignee
discharged upon his filing creditors
receipts for dividends to be paid
them.
Ia the matter of the bankrupt
estate of VIM. Horace Wright, the
Marshal has made a return that he
ia " able to find any property
Nevertheless three creditors proved
their claims yesterday. The Court
will probably appoint an assignee,
as the creditors have failed to elect
one.
In the matter of the bankruptcy
of Samuel Parker, a further contin-
uance has been granted in regard
to the enforcement of the decree of
bankruptcy, until April 9th next.
Judge Cooper yesterday filed his
decision in the matter of the mat
ter of the estate Of J. F. o. Ban
ming. The decision, which covers
nineteen pages of typewriter pa
per, is in favor of w. F. Allen, the
administrator. The only point
found against him, is in regard to
his commissions which he had
charged to the estate in the first
instance instead of waiting until
the fir.ality of the administration {;
but that is a matter that could now
be adjusted, by his being dis
charged as administrator and quail
flying anew as a trustee under the
will.

A very serious disappointment is in
store for Barela. November 9, when
the votes for state treasurer are count
as there was chance to go to the

saw Il chance to ride in on the Popu-

the nomination for treasurer. He made
the mistake OF thinking the tide was
rising instead of ebbing and as a con-

Good citizenship demands that sort
of patriotism that can arise above mere
party lines and vote for men who have
the best interests OF the state at heart
The spolsmen who have for the time
captured the state treasury do not
scruple to use every influence at their
command to perpetuate their reign. At
such time mere questions of political
policy should not divide the people,
They should be united to overthrow
the piratical dynasty of Populism and

The Denver News is unable to say
anything against McIntire except that
he is unknown, Abraham Lincoln was
not very well known when nominated

one of the best governors Colorado has

being unknown is not nearly equal to

now the great objection to Davis II.
