The market reports of New York papers
show that during the week from Feb. 10 to
II there were afloat on the ocean, bound
for that port, three freight steamers with
$1,000 sacks Of English and Scotch pota-
toes. From Oct. 1. 1893. to Feb. 10. 1894.
the receipts Of foreign potatoes at New
York were 215.9e5 sacks or barrels, nearly
one-half Of the total consumption of the
city. Every bushel of potatoes consumed
in the city ought to be raised in this coun-
try. The duty on potatoes under the Nc
Kinley law is Is cents a bushel, but this
does not suffice to prevent the importation
of foreign potatoes, to the serious detri-
ment OF American farmers. The Wilson bill
reduces the tariff potatoes to 10 cents
bushel. If this reduction takes effect the
Importation of foreign potatoes will be
largely increased, and millions of dollars
that ought to go into the pockets Of Amer
lean farmers and farm laborers will go

TerpHchore at GrIa Bend

The editor of the Gila Bend Lead CT gives the following account of a New Years ball: The ball at Mon Pau's New Year nj .ht was well at tended and its echoes are still float ing about. All say that it exceed ed the Christmas ball, but we don't believe it. Balls are all alike. Men,
 women. boys and girls, get their arms well and closely wrapped around each other, grab ground, some instruments go te-rum te- iddle-de, all hands jigger up and down, down and up. until the auc- tioneer says, 'last call" the male says thank you," leads the girl to seat. she says, wasn't it too awful ly nice for anything, ohdearnOIaint- abittired," they separate, both gasp ing for breath and both perspiring uncomfortably. In two minutes they are up and at it again, and keep on repeating the same old hug, the same old grab, the same old jig ger, to the same old tune, with the same results-more gasp, more persp. and-until nearly daylight. That is all how it looks to an un- prejudiced old fellow who meyer at tends. And so we say that we don't believe that this ball was any bet ter than the one given on Christ mas night. It was simply con tin uation. They are all alke.

MYSTERIOUS SHOTS! /! Two Shots Fired Into a Pri-
 vate Residence
In Dangerously Close Proximity of
 The Inmates.

John R. Holder. whose name ap- pears elsewhere in this issue as the subject of matrimonial notice, appeared in the district attorneys s office, just after noon today, and asked for a warrant for the arrest of some one, who he claims attempt ed to assassinate him a short time previous. When asked as to the name of the person he desired ar rested, he stated that he did not know. He stated to the district attorney that before sitting down to dinner at his residence, about one and one-half miles west of Prescott, a shot was fired south of his house, and almost simultaneous ly with the shot a bullet struck the casing of the door.
 He said he did not think much about it at the time but after he and his wife sat down another shot rang out, and the bullet struck the sugar bowl on the table between him and his wife. At this he be- came alarmed and left the house and went down to Sheriff Lowry's house, and reported the circum- stance to him who referred him to the district attorney.
 He said the shots came from the direction of a lot of rocks to the south of the house, but he had no idea who fired them, as he does not know of any enemies that he has who would want to take his life.

The s. r.. P. &P. Rnfirnnh.

The trip to Prescott is now a pleasure. Formerly the trip was one to be dreaded, and it required twenty-four hours to reach that town. At present one can leave FlagstGff at 10:55 a. m. and reach Prescott at 5:l5 D. m. of the same day.
 The new order of things has been made possible by the completion of the Santa Fe, Prescott x Phenix rail road to Prescott. The lIne from Ash Fork to Prescott is first class in every particular. The passenger train is made up of combination baggage and smoking car and d and a finely furnished pas senger coach, hauled by a fine Brooks locomotive.
 In passing through Limestone canyon some difficult engineering was encountered, but it gives the passengers a view of some fine scenery.
 The officials of the road give the public courteous treatment.
 The road deserves the patronage of the public, and with the compile tion of the road to Phenix it will have a largely increased traffic Coconino Sun.

A small blaze occurred, just be- fore noon to-day, in Chinese wash
 house, adjoining Charley Martins saloon on Cortez street. An alarm was sounded which brought the department out promptly and gave them just sufficient exercise to work up an appetite for their midday meal. The fire was luckily extin- gulshed by the time the department reached the scene. It originated from a Celestial smoking opium. and going off into dreamland from the effect of the drug, probably upset the lamp. His hair was pretty badly slnged and the bed upon which he was reclining at the time was con slderably burned. The broken lamp and other opium smoking belong lngs were strewn over the floor but aside from the above no damage was done.

The little handful of disappointed office-seekers would have the world believe that there are two sections of the Democratic party in Arizona.

PIrHY. POINTED AND rERrrNENr.

PITHY, POINTED AND PERTINENT.
 It is ex-Judge Maynard now and will be to the end of the chapter. Honesty Is not dead, although Maynard was not the first demo cratic politician to act as though it were.
 It will be absolutely impossible, owing to the absence of raw ma terial, so to speak, for 1894 to pro- duce shrinkage of values equal 10 that which took place in 1893.
 The ghost of the lost values of 1893 haunts Grover Cleveland, and he imagines that it is an assassin.
 The senate committee on foreign relations is searching for the truth about the Hawaiian business, so its members say.
 Perhaps the proposition to move the headquarters of the Knights of Labor to Washington IS the first step towards a missionary cam paign against Congress.
 Mir. Cleveland would doubtless enjoy swapping that Hawaiian poli- cy for a ''yaller" dog, and then shooting the dog.
 Uncle Charlie Dana's resolution to continue his campaign of tariff education is a striking example of democratic pluck under difficulties.
 The Governor of Florida knows how to be emphatic without being profdne. Perhaps he might be in duced to take a class of governors and teach them the knack.
 Mrs. Lease seems to have lost her grip on the populist machinery. Perhaps she has been paying too much attention to old man Lease.
 Master Workman Sovereign's statement that "bonds and slavery are synonymous terms while liter ally correct, was far from being cor rect in the sense in which he used 1t.
 Congressman Springer's national currency bill Is no improvem ent on the national banking laws, and it is much more complicated. However, it serves to keep Springer from be- ing forgotten, and that Is about all its author expects of it.
 The congressman who would vote for protection to his own district, while denying it to other districts,
 not worthy to be called an Amer ican. Protection is either good or bad for all.

 There are good reasons for the belief that Governor Waite is more kinds of a damphool than any man living, and there are other populist governors, too.

Tom Morris Sensational Suit.

Eliza Morris has begun divorce proceedings against Tom c. Mor- ris, the champion foot-racer, on the grounds of adultery and misusage, naming Hattie Mundell, a sixteen year-old girl living over by the Southern Pacific Railroad depot, as correspondent in the case. Mrs. Morris left her husband only a short time ago and steps were taken at once for a divorce. Morris is well known all over the country as the champion foot-racer. He now holds the worlds record for loo vards.
 Hattie Mundell. the girl in the case, is a sister of Mrs. W. W. Clark. who figured in a sensational matter here about a year ago, and after wards left for pastures new.
 For the past year or two Morris has taken up horse-racing and is now owner of several good steppers, among them being "Jingler,' pacer in the 2:l6 class.
 An order has been issued by Judge Towner restraining Morris from disposing of any of his horses or other property at the present time.-Les Angeles Times.
