AT end of this week the peDslon bureau
will cover into the treasury $4,000, 900
which will be left unexpendtd out of the
pension appropriations for the current
fiscal year. Instead of this money re-
presenting saving, as the democrats
claim, it Is blood money, every dollar
OF it: and if il could be possible to
present to the public the story Of the
suffering which its unjust withholding
from old soldiers in want, whose applica-
tons for pensions have been purposely
Enacted upon in order that this money
might not be paid out, it would make a
tale of imfamy that would make even a
democrat blush for the administration
that could deliberately plan and carry
out such heartless and unpatriotic
policy. There is another side OF the
question, too, that is likely to bs heard
from. What right has an executive
bureau of the government to refuse to
carry out the Law? Congress appropriate
ed that money to pay pensions. Last
week Senator Cullom offered a resolu-
ton, which was pa sed, iustructing the
commissioner CT pensions to report to
the senate the amount of the pension
appropriation that will remain nexpeud-
ed at the close of the fiscal year. When
that report is received the democrats
may look out for some plain talk on
their pension policy.

THE secret "pUll" which the sugar
trust holds on the democratic senators
may yet be made public, not through
the senate investigating committee but
through Mr.. Havemeyer, the president
OF the sugar trust, who threatens, ac-
cording to current reports, to make an
exposure that will shake that already
quaking democratic party to pieces, if
himself and Mr.. Searles are indicted by
the grand jury and sent to jail for refus-
ing to answer questions concerning the
political contributions OF the trust. This
pull" was strong enough to make the
two democratic sen8tors-Grsy and
Lindsey-on the investigating commit
tee, vote apsinst Senator Aliens propo-
sition TO certify Havemeyer and Searles
to the grand jury for indictment, just
rs was done with the two newspaper
correspondents and the New York stock
broker, but the two republicans on the
committee, Davis and Lodge, voted with
Senator Allen, and the sugar barons
will be certified to the grand jury, IN
less the democratic majority OF the Sc
nate, in obedience to the aforesaid pull
shall prevent it.

Everything about the place is appar-
emily in perfect condition and with the
means at the disposal of the authorities,
could not well be improved on. The
prison is in better shape than at any
time before 10 its history. The walls
have been dressed off, built up. plaster
ed and whitewaShed. In addition to
this many internal improvements have
tory. We cannot 60 into details here
for we have not the details to go into,
but the writer dCring his short visit to
the place saw sufficient to convince
him that Tommy" Gates was making
an excellent uperiniendept. The SER
vices of NJ f. Shaw, ex sheriff of Pima
csunty, must not be overlooked. AS as
sistant superintendent he has the direct
control of the men and the results can
not be overestimated. In this connec-
ton his right hand man. E. W. Moore,
also Pima county man, must also be
considered. Many of the Improvements
referred TO have b5en made under his
immed ate supervision. He is active and
intelligent and has shown a wonderful
capacity in the handling of convict la
Dor and the results are everywhere ap-
parent.
When man or set of men do we'll
We like to commend them for SO doing
and we are of the belief that the pres
ent management of the prison is entitled
to this attention. 1t is not a matter
of politics but of practical results.

TUC ON water has for months been
supplied from wells. the river supply
giving cut long ago. Seven men are
now employed IN cutting wood and keep

Come, Brother Bagg. give the old
town a fair deal. The Santa Cruz river
never runs dry. The stream is yet of
fair size and the Allison ditch is run
ing bank full. Not other canal in the
territory not drawing its supply from
thu Colorado river, can show as much.
Ia times Of drowth the company hold
ing the franchise to supply the town
with water, not caring to use the sur
face flow of the stream, use water from
well sunk for that purpose. This is
done to avoid the impurities of furface
water rather than through scarcity of

GODS OF THE ANCIENTS.

IT was said of both Athens and Rome
that so numerous were the temples and
statues of gods it was easier to find a
god than n man.
ALL youths and naidens worshiped
Venus or Aphrodite, offering to her all
sorts of flowers, but particularly the
rose and myrtle.
THE parks and gardens in Athens had
protecting deities who. it is to be pre-
sumed, enforced attention to the sign:
keep off the grass"
WHEN a Roman tramp set out in the
morning for days business, he prayed
to Themis to teach all housewives the
value OF hospitality.
EVERY ancient man had his attan5;;.S
genius, every woman her Juno. Sacri-
fees TO these guardian spirits were al
ways made on birthdays.
THE Hindoo god of marriage is repre-
sentcd with human body and ele-
plants head, seated on throne rest
ing on circle of human skulls.

FRANCE is Frustrated with grief. The
assassin, cod blooded and murderous
has done bis foul and bloody work.
Carnot, the president of the French re-
public, lies cold in death with gaping
rift in his side through which the wine
of life has fled. All France nourns and
the civilized world mourng with her,
but this will not bring back 10 life the
head, the heart ard idol of the young
republic. The wild indignation Of ma
tion, the tread Of whose armies have
shock the lettering thrones of Europe,
avails nothing against the great reaper,
and pomp and pageantry and earthly
show glitters about the dead body of
her ia len chief in vain. Just what the
result viii be en- the life Of the repub-
lie cannot now be toreseen, f-r faction
will struggle with faction for suprema-
cy, but France will withstand the shock
as she has withstood other and greater
misfortunes, ana rising above party
strife will bless her people. Jet what
the anarchists hoped TO encompass by
the assassination Of her president is Lot
now known, but may develop later on
during the trial of the murderer. That
the assassin was not a Frenchman re-
bounds to the glory of France. That
be belonged to a band of cOnspirators
whose hands are against all countries
and against all men is almost certain.

SILVER FACTS WORTH CONSI
DERIyG.

The London Economist says If the
United States were to adopt silver
basis she could capture from England
the trade of tie silver-using nations oil
both America and Asia.
England, says the Cincinnati En-
ouirer, understood that such would be
the result, and hence her forcing her
Indian provinces to adopt the geld
standard. The great bunkc steerer of
the nations found that India was cap
turing her trade with China, silver
using country. The coarser cotton fab
rlcs. sucn as the millions OF China use,
were being supplied by the manufaetur
ers Of India The mother country
could not compete with her colonies
in the production of cheap cottons.
India and China were silver using coun-
tries.
Silver was worth its face in Its pur-
chasing power in India, while 1t was
only worth about half its face in England
What does Johnny Bull care what dis
tress. bankruptcy and ruin comes upon
his Indian subjects If his trad is in
peril? This accounts for Engl8nd's
persistent refusal to join with the United
States in an international monetary con-
ference. The United States is more
formidable than India in her ability TO
capture the English trade, not only in
Caina, but in all the Spanish American
countries. Tne shrewd English states
men fully understand that the American
congress and president are converts to
the doctrine that We must conform our
financial legislation TO suit the wishes
OF Great Britain.
But for the fact that all the rest OF
the world is in her debt, and it is to
England's interest and great profit to
demand payment in the scarcer and
desrer metal, she would very speedily
agree to the restoration OF silver.
When she finds that her trade is in
danger and that it is more valuable
than the appreciation of her foreign
securities, she will clamor for a silver
standard. Some of the ablest of the
British statesmen have admitted that if
the United States fully remonetizes
silver at its old ratio with gold England
must conform TO it or lose her most
valuable trade. France, Belgium,
Switzerland and Italy and all the coun-
tries OF Spanish America will JON with
the United States, and England will be
shorn of a large amount Of her foreign
commerce. That being lost she will be
poor indeed.
The cowardly policy Of President
Cleveland is understood and appreciat-
ed by the statesmen % England. When
it is conceded that the United States
is the greatest gold and silver producing
country on the globe, we can apply 10
milder term than cowardly TO the posi-
ton of the president. The trend OF pub
lie sentiment is in the direction OF free
coinage. and the mem oers OF congress TO
be chosen from the rural districts will
be required by their constituents to
commit themselves in favor OF the un-
limited coinage of both gold and silver.
1t Will not satisfy the public require
ment II say that they are in favor Of
silver when an International conference
shall agree 10 it.
