There are some farmers in this
country who always manage to raise
potatoes for their own use; there are
others who are often seen buying
potatoes for the table at the town
stores. An increase of the former
class would bring sensible decrease
of the latter class.
There are now two democratic
members of the city council; and the
republican members are not of the
fire-eating, rip-snorting, democrat
hating kind that have at various times

a light ahead for our fair young city
yet.

An exchange tells of a boy who
grew up to manhood without seeing
a woman. But in the course of
events he saw one of the angelic
creatures. "What is that father?"
asked the young man. ':aThat, my
son, is woman" replied the father,
and the next words the young man
uttered were: "Father, I want one
of them things"
We once heard of man who
bought revolver for his wife to de-
fend herself with. He insisted on
her practising with it; but after he
had the bullet dug out of his leg, had
the cow hauled off and dumped in
the river and settled for the two
shoats of his neighbor he concluded
the wife had better continue shooting
with the rolling pin.

"Castoria is the best remedy for children OF

EAR, IN ADVANCE. "a
Mesa free press., 1894-04-05

OAPT. CoxEY and. his army of
unemployed are still marching on
to Washington to demand reform.
Coxey was the Populist candidate
for state treasurer of Ohio. He
didn't get there. His lieutenant,
Carl Browne, is known all over the
Pacific Coast as crank of a very
pronounced nature. A few years
ago in Los Angeles he conducted
>the Cactus, paper whose object
was 20 promulgate the "advanced''
ideas of the editor ;Sbut all it did
was to get Browne into Jail on a
charge of blackmail. Most of
-Coxey's army are like ke>Browne,
either cranks or afraid of honest
toll. 1t will probably never reach
Washington.

THE Breckinridge-Pollard case
drags along slowly in the Court at
Washington, and the caricaturists
are having a good deal of fun at
the Colonel's expense, but their
work oannot be very amusing for
the defendant. In fact if he be
sensitive his sufferings since this
trial began must have been acute,
for from any point of view the
Kentucky congressman cuts a
shameful figure. But he has so
long played the hypocrite that he
has ere this ceased to be bothered
witha conscience.

The Gazette does not seem to be
satisfied with having done all in It's
power to villify and abuse the
present territorial administration
but is now busily engaged in an at
tack upon Chief Justice Baker, the
ostensible cause being his late de-
cision on the bauk tax question.
When Judge Baker was nominated
and confirmed the Gazette was loud
in his praise as an able lawyer and
An upright and conscientious judge
It is generally conceded by the bar
and the people at large that Judge
Baker has performed all of his
onerous duties with credit and
honor to himself and to the Supreme
and District bench. But His
Honor, like all conscientious judges,
permits no dictation to him by any
one, but performs his duty faith
fully and fearlessly, hence the at
tack of the Gazette With fair
minded people the attack on the
Chief Justice will receive small
favor, as is well known from it's
record in the past, those whom the
Gazette cannot control it will en-
deavor to destroy.

THE RIGHT THING AT THE wRoSe
 TIME.

As stated in THE OASIS last week. the suit of the territory against Wm. Chrlsty, ex-treasurer, was decided against the latter. Some of the news- papers have endeavored to make it seem that he had been convicted of a criminal offense. Such is not the fact. Under the funding act he redeemed certain bonds, sale of certain other bonds having been effected for that very purpose, but the money not yet paid. This redemption then was done with other funds. Afterward the purchasers of the bonds repudisted their contract to buy, and the treasur. CT was left with the bonds he had re- deemed in lien of the money he had in the treasury. The judgment of the court was that he should not have an. ticipated from other funds the pay ments he made, but should have awaited receipt of the proceeds of the bond sale. There was no dishonesty in his action, and in the end the terri tory will lose nothing, for the fund.- ing act expressly provided for him to do what he did, only he was too soon about it. If the higher courts sustain the judgment, on appeal, the ex-treas- urer's remedy will have to be by re- lief bill in the legislature.
