Tho Stage Robbery.

According 10 private advises from Bowie station, the prospects are that the lone highwsyman who held up the Solomonville stage coach at Big Hollow Thursday evening will not be captured.
 At daylight yesterday morning a deputy United States marshal and posse left Bowie in drizzling rain on horseback for the scene of the robbery. They were unable 10 trail the bandit from the arroyo, as the rain had ob- liberated his tracks. The officer and posse were compelled to abandon the search and return to Bowie till clear weather prevails.
 It is the opinion that the robbery was committed by someone living in Graham county, who was at home q few hours after the hold-up, knowing it was safe to seek the shelter of his own roof. as the rain would make it impossible to trail him.-Stsr.

SPEAKING upon industrial subjects re-
minds us OF an economical experiment
made by Rhode Island manufacturing
corporation about eight months ago.
They had been asked to increase the
wages of their employees but declined
to do so, yet were willing to make them
an equivalent by reducing the number
of working hours from 53 down to 48
and still preserving the old scale Of
wages. At the same time they eau
toned their employees as to the neces-
sity of being punctual and working
hard. The greatest care has been taken
to avoid payment for overtime and the
experiment has so far worked well. The
loss of wages was about .04 per cent.
which has been fully made up by de-
crease in the consumption of gas, fuel
and lubricants. as we'll as a diminution
in repairs to machinery. The men are
far more punctual in attendance, and
the output OF the factory is quite ss
large as formerly. even the pieceworkers
showing desire TO turn out larger
amount OF work.

GENERAL Freight Agent Smurr OF the
Southern Pacific says that trains OF ven
tilated oars, 10 to the train, are to be put
on next month to carry fruit from Cali
fornia to Chicago in 100 hours, and
trains of refrigerator cars are to make it
In 10S hours. This begins to look like
business, for it is just what the South
srn should have inaugurated eight years
ago. Mr.. Smurr estimates the output
of all fruits from all parts of the state at
10000 carloads, in which he includes
deciduous and citrus fruits alike, as we'll
as raisins, prunes. dried fruits of var
ious kinds and canned fruits as well.
The best authorities on this question fix
the yield at about as big as has ever been
known, with improved prices for both
peaches and apricots. This latter fruit
will be extensively used as All anti
scerbutic by the British army hereafter.

Horsemen cay there is now the best
lot OF fast stock at the Los Angeles race
track that has ever yet been seen in
training there. OF 2-year-olds, both
PAGERS and trotters, there are several
colts that show remarkable speed. Some
OF these will travel the California circuit
the coming season. 81
The directors OF San Bsrnardino Agri-
cultural association want to arrange for
meeting that will attract all of the
best animals now in training at the Los
Angeles track. Mr.. Atwood. one of the
directors of the San Bernardino associa-
ton. is now here comforting, with horse.
men about taking their stock to the San
Bernardino meeting. Mr.. Durfee and
others say that If the proposed meeting
ia arranged to be held before it will be
necessary for them to take their horses
north for the fall circuit, they will all
attend the meeting at San Beanardino.
Mr.. Durfee says he will not enter Nc
Kinney for any races this season; it is
his intention to give the horse rest
and take him east next year for the races
at Chicago, st. Louis and all the prin-
cipal races in the western circuit.
From the character OF the horses, colts
and aged, now at the Los Angeles track,
it is confidently asserted by men best
able to judge, that the coming season
will have the best races ever seen at
Los Angeles.

ONE great trouble with the present
era is the absence of proper and prac.
tical instruction in the science of gov
eminent in our schools and colleges.
Senator Hoar said truly the other day,
that "knaves are always ready to
psnder to any new craze for the sake
OF their own political advancement;
and ignorance is go universal that they
have no difficulty in obtaining followers
and founding new political parties"
With young men better educated in
the science of government, such con-
dition of things would be impossible.
Horace Greeley used to say that he
would give more for the opinion of
Kentucky farmers boy that could barely
read and write, upon any i'm Important
political question of the day, than for
that of the sblest and most erudite
professor in Harvard or Yale. Our col
legiate education is altogether too super
fetal as yet.

ures, the body Of the party has sure
means of making itself felt. The per-
functory method of voting by mail
would be tame substitute for the
gathering OF the people at the primaries
In such cases. The fact is that no pri-
mary political action can be adopted
that will cure the evils complained OF as
long as the people Themselves remain
Indifferent. The trouble is not sin our
stars, but ourselves" Machine politics
have worked enough evil in public st-
fairs to have awakened the people to
their duty. But bad as they are. they
must get worse before the indifferent
element of all parties will wake up to
its responsibility.
