Some of the earliest sown wheat is up

fore cold weather. Now that the sun
Is south of the equator and the nights

no longer any Intentional delay in SOW
Ing wheat, but where man has his
ground prepared he will commit his
seed to the soil as rapidly as he can do

1t was a "Blue" Crowd.

at A O'Clock last Saturday afternoon,
about 30 women and children and 2
dozen men walked mournfully i'm the
blue" procession to the opera house
to hear the wouldhe congressman tell
why Kansas republicans are better than
those who are now in the saddle. He
held firmly 10 the "intrinsic value"
ilea in money, and weariel his hearers
by an oft heard parity" song, much to
/ the disgust of his own party. Said he
was in favor of the coinage of "Ameri-
can silver" The must have modified HIS
opinion since his Kansas City speech
was made) but denounced the free and
unlimited coinage of silver as advocat-
ed By the populists and some western
democrats. Or course he had to
dwell for long time on the glories of a
protective tariff system but failed to
make anyone understand how the people
could be benefited materially, by being
compelled to pay douhly for the neces-
saries of life. Mr.. Blue and his tire
some speech was VIVID example OF
the "all things to all men" platform,
and one not versed on republican trick
cry would be compelled to read between
the lines SO as not to be lead astray by
his deceptive speech. Aside from
lodging on the silver question he left
the issues alone. Mr.. Blue made anoth-
er speech in the evening. which was
precisely the same as that of the after
noon. He couldn't till of single thing
that his party proposed to do for the
people, but seemed to think that the
party should be reenthroned for the
good it had done in score of years
past. o, Republicanism! thou must
be great so great that thy own diciples
cannot explain thee.

THE LONE HIGHWAYMAN
HE AGAIN GETS In HIS WORK In
ARIZONA.
A Stage Held Up Near Bowie Station.
The Robber Took thu Mail Bag.
but Did Not Moiest
the Passengers.

Tucson. Ariz.. Dec. ia special dis.
patch to the Star from Bowie station,
Graham county. says the Solomonville
and Fort Thomas stage coach was
stopped this evening eight miles from
that place by lone highwayman. The
hold-up ws3 in an arroyo called Big
Hollow. The stage was passing through
lonely locality when man fully six
feet in height and masked jumped fro m
be hind a group of mesquite trees, cover
ing the driver with two six-shooters and
ordering him to stop. When the stage
came to a standstill one of the pssseng-
ers threw out the mail pouch as directed
by the robber. The driver was then
told to 90 on; when he reached
Bowie station he gave the alarm. Nei-
thsr the driver nor passengers saw the
highwsyman after they left the arroyo.
The sheriff and iposse are now in pur-
suit. The robber is supposed to have
made big haul, as large sums OF money
were frequently sent by mail from Gra'
ham county.
Webb and Felshaw, recently convicted
and sentenced to 10 years at Florence
for stage robbery, held up the same
stage coach at the same place last jan
uary.
