The Silver City Sentinel says l: The chatter of hoofs and the lowing of great herds of southwestern cattle, as they wend their way to northern and eastern markets may be heard throughout the length and breadth of our great range country from now until winter sets in. If the year closes as favorable as it has opened, the southwest will be on top when the years ac- counts are balanced.

The Red Bluff News states as an example of the possibilities of fruit growing in Northern California that eighteen years ago two cuttings of the purple fig were pushed down into the soil at the foot of the Coast Range, in the western part of Te- hama county, since which time they had no attention except protection from stock for few years. For fifteen years they have borne and grown, until now each trunk meas ures eight feet in circumference, while the lower branches, which rest on the ground, have taken root and sent up shoots which are 25 feet high.

One of the most remarkable cowboy fights ever known in Ari- zona took place on the Verde Thurs day.morning. The round up herd of steers was being corralled, when Ashe, the owner of one especially bad fence breaking steer, objected to the exclusion of the animal from the corral. Ashes son and another man named Miller led the services with hot-set-to, which was quickly joined by George Sears, the older Ashe and three or four cowboys. About every one of the participants of the entertainment sustained at least one black eye, in addition to other injuries, but not man was seriously injured, for, remarkable to relate, there was not a single revol- yer in the crowd.-Coconino Sun.

Frank Mayor, the cattleman, came in from the Tonto country last night and reports a deplorable state of affairs oa the ranges in that section. He says there is neither feed nor water; that Tonto creek, which at this time of year is usually mountain torrent is all most dry; that at Payson the in habitants haul water for domestic purposes, a thing unheard of before. He will drive down about thou sand head of cattle and turn them on alfalfa pastures near Tempe.- Tempe News.

Legislation against the debtor will eventually bear equally hard against the creditor, and to day they are both suffering together. Most people are seeing this. Even the great capitalists of Boston and some of those of England gee it, and are organizing to restore silver, the world oyer, to it's true position as one of the money metals. A few veritable money bags, who have the best of life behind them, some of tho most pufed spectators of Wall street, and a few editors, who, like our brother of the Tribune, listen with bated breath to what the wires tell them of Colorado and California, still cling to the idea that, when it comes to money, gold is the all in all, and the silver is trash. They will be wiser when they have lived longer.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

About two years ago Eugene
 Pearson, a prominent raiser of thoroughbred horses of Brooklyn, N. Y.. came to New Mexico, with a carload of thoroughbred colts, ranging in age from four months to year old, and placed them on a ranch in Luna valley. about 100 miles from Socorro. He desired to try the high altitude of the country upon the young colts, and now claims that the scheme has proved a success, for it gives greater chest power and more endurance. Mir. Pearson loaded a car of these colts, now two and three years old at Magdalena on Sunday, April 1st, and came here with them, stopping two weeks to test their speed on the track at the fair grounds. after which he will continue on to Brook lyn.-Albuquerque Citizen.

One thing particularly noticeable in Dun's review of the country's commercial failures, last year, is the small number of mining failures reported. Many silver mines have been temporarily abandoned, but very few of them were sold out by the sheriff or placed in the hands of receivers. In Dun's classification mining failures are put in the man. ufactures' class. Idaho had but eight such failures last year, and, if all the concerns had been silver mines, the record would hardly be considered bad one for the min ing industry, except in comparison with the showing made by some of the other silver producing States and Territories, From Wyoming, but one mining failure was reported, from Arizona, only one, and from Montana, Nevada and New Mexico, none at all, In these six States and Territories, there were, accord ing to Dun's report, not more than ten mining firms and companies that collapsed from any cause whatever during the year 1S93.- St. Louis Republic.

Any vail of woe that goes up concerning the action of United States Attorney Ellinwood in putting the kybosh on the Edmunds act prosecutions, will only bring more unanimous praise from the people of Arizona for this conscien- tious act of an able and worthy official. The past workings of the Edmunds act, or rather the way the Edmunds act has been worked in this territory during the past four years, has been nothing less that judicial farce. The law was never intended to apply to Arizona, and was imported here for no other purpose than to afford federal officials an opportunity to raid the national treasury. Ellinwood de- serves the highest compliment for the bold stand he has taken Bulletin.

WE clip the following sensible and true statement of facts from the Prescott Courier, every word of which we most cordially endorse :: The walk of the American unem- ployed across the country has re- suited in comparatively little law lessness and no malicious destruc- ton of property, but when the devil gets reused in the hearts of the im- ported contract labor employees of men who have grown to be million aires under republican laws enacted for the alleged purpose of protect ing American workingmen, then we see business houses wrecked, facto- ries gutted and law-abiding people slain. Thus have the disciples of protection sown the wind and forced their beneficiaries, as well as the balance of the American people, to reap the whirlwind. This condition of serfdom on the one hand and money princes on the other is gradual result of over a quarter of a century's legislation in favor of the money power, and the culmina-

The Oasis says that Mark Smith
 used his influence in favor of IrThomas Parish for Governor of
 Arizona and when Tom failed Hughes was taken up in his place. Now, the fact of the matter is Mark
 Smith neither used his influence
 nor mentioned the name of Parish
 or Hughes for governor. Smiths
 choice for governor wasMr. Burgess,
 an honorable gentleman who resides in Prscott, and one who is an earn est advocate of free silver. When Burgress failed to carry the nec- essary weight, he was dropped and Hon. Foster s. Dennis was taken up. Hughes had too tight a grip on the administration and re- ceiyed the appointment despite the protest of our delegate. This is the fact of the matter and any newspa- per that asserts that Mark Smith l advocated the appointment of gold bug to office in Arizona tells what they know to be base lie. Hon. Foster s. Dennis will bear us out in this statement, as will other honorable and earnest advo- eates of silver in Arizona.-Mohave Miner.

Stockmen of Salt River Valley, this county, are not hopeful of a favorable season for cattle on ac- count of the prolonged drouth and consequent short crop of grass. Summer rams, however, may create sufficient pasturage by which stock will be in condition to satisfactori- ly yield hoped for crop of calves. The range is overstocked, which will soon be materially relieved of it's superabundance by the drive now in progress for market.-Silyer Belt.

ton of the evil work of such
 length of time cannot be overcom
 in a day, or even year, or twt
 years. It will have to be undon,
 almost as gradually as it was done
 for the same evil forces whicl
 brought this condition about, fghi
 as bitterly to prevent change as
 they fought to establish such con
 dition. Before this administration
 shall have ceased it's labors the agi-
 tating elements will, from their own
 very violence have subsided, and a condition of tranquility will exist !; the great mass of the people will become convinced again, as they have so often before, that their only hope lies in an administration built on true democratic lines, conducted by men of unquestioned democracy, and they will elect such men at the next national election. The demo- cratic party is growing stronger day by day. While the leaders of the party have frequently made mis- takes, and possibly the present pres idential incumbent has made more mistakes than all the balance of them put together, still there is that in democratic doctrines which has an eternal lodgment in every Amer ican heart-an everlasting principle around which the people sponta neously rally at times when the casual observer would pronounce the cause of democracy dead for ever. The democratic party is the national party, the party of the people, and will remain in power or out of power as long as the world lasts, and the Courier believes will, from this on, remain mostly in pow CT. It is only the weak-kneed and vascillating who desert the ship when the storm rages. The old guard of democracy still man the good ship of state, and the irreso- lute will all scramble back on deck when the calm comes, which it will before the next national election.

Deputy Sheriff Con. Cleary ar rested the white man who was camp ed near where the body of the dead Mexican was found a few days be- fore the latter was discovered, near Ash Fork. Soon after the finding of the remains of the Mexican, this man left Ash Fork, and Cleary found himeast of Williams, where he made the arrest. Since being placed under arrest he has told several contradictory stories, and seems to be nervous over the position he is placed in. The latter, however, would by no means be an unnatural condition for an innocent man to be in, under the circumstances. It transpires that there was a colored man along with him the night he camped a short distance from Ash Fork, and as far as known, the Mex ican was alone in his camp. The man under arrest has also told con fiicting stories about his colored companion, whose whereabouts are unknown, but for whom vigorous search is being made. MT. Cleary is holding his prisoner at Ash Fork in hopes of securing the colored man, or of his discovering some other evidence that will unravel the mystery now surrounding the affair. Journal Miner.
