What Breckinridge Forgets.

The press has done nothing against Mr..
Breckenridge. except TO tell the truth about
him. Even IL IL had not told the truth, IL
would not become man who practiced lying
and deceit for 10 years, registering
under false names. lying TO his friends
and his family, trying to lie and sneak
out OF his obligations TO his paramour-
IL would not become such a man TO reprove
untruth. Mr.. Breckenridge is too censorious
for person in his plight. He forgets that he
is on the stool Of penitence, not in the pulpit
He should try to make his repentance seem
deep and genuine. at least until after election
day. He should remember that he is the
prisoner in the dock asking for mercy. not
the judge severe and fnlminant.

The Coal Strike.

The failure of the conference on the strike Of
the bituminous coal miners Is to be deeply re-

roads are obliged to seize all the soft coal that
is sent over their lines in order to move their
trains. 1t is a very serious condition Of things,
and II calls for a prompt remedy TO the end
that widespread embarrassment may not fol-

increasing Interest.

There is no doub bt that great revival of interest in real estate matters is at hand. It steals upon us unawares like a thief or sweet slumber in the night, or fit of intoxication. and before we know it we are in the midst of boom. Happy then are they who know when and how to unload.
 There is nothing transitory or ephen- eral about the lots in Simms' addition. They are destined to be selected as the pleasant homes of the legitimately, suc- cessful business men of Phoenix.
 Who shall say that substantial for tunes will not be built up in this valley with its unequslled facilities for stock raising and town supporting? Where can more ideal spot be found for a residence than the Simms' addition?
