such Was the History Of the Fathe
of the Japanese Press.

Of the Japanuse Press.
The father" Of the Japanese press
was chemist with the easy and
euphonic name OF Kishida Ghlnkau.
He had been pirate and mercenary
"a kind OF janissary in the service OF
the old fcudality. The revolution OF
1865 having put an end 10 his occupa-
uon, he turned his attention once more
TO study, and became a chemist.
At that time the Japanese traders,
not possessing the same opportunities
as we have Of making their wares
known to the public, had little suuares
OF paper printed, cried in the streets
and circulated among the Inhabitants.
kishtda pondered over this. and
happy inspiration came to him Why
not collect all the advertisements on
one sheet, sandwiched between items
OF news after the manner Of the Euro
peans, and publish II at intervals?
kishlda was a man OF actlon--he had
not been a soldier for nothIng-and he
quickly put his idea into practice. The
result was the appearance of the Mosh.

depending more upon the financial re-

Labor Day Proclamation.
TERRITORY OF ARIZONA, EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT. 1

By an Act of Congress approved June 2S, 1884, the first Monday in September, being the sec- ond day Of the month, is designated as legal holiday, to be known as Labor Day.
 As labor is the handspring of civilization wealth and happines, and its conquests mo- where so striking as in the development and building up of our Republic, the wisdom of the law recognizing labor is not only apparent, but when applied to the people of our territory who are struggling to develop it's various re- sources and industries, and laboring to estab
 fish homes in 8 new region, is highly appro p11ate. Among our courageous, busy, industri
 ous population there are few drones, few who cannot justly be chased as laborers; the mer- chant, the miner, the mechanic, the lawyer,
 the farmer, the teacher, the clerk, the divine, the banker and the laborer, and while many earn their bread by the sweat of their face and others by the. sweat of their brain, all are no less toilers.
 general observation of the day so wisely set apart by Congress will serve to promote a
 higher appreciation of labor, and the part it is taking in the development and carrying on of our industries, for the upbuilding of which al are so earnestly striving. This day should
 bring labor into g closer relation with other interests and cultivate the principles of CO., operation between "capital and labOr,'' and
 thus encourage and establish wholesome feeling, with view to more harmonious rela- tions among all the people.
 Now, therefore, I, Louis c, Hughes, Governor of the Territory of Arizona, do hereby recon mend and request that all shops, offices manu- featuring and commercial industries and other
 places where labor is employed, suspend opera tion on that day, that all may have an oppor- l tunity to observe the day in manner beftting
 the spirit which gave it birth, 8 day which to
 future generations will become as suggestive and inspiring as the religious and patriotic holidays which our people so Loyalty and re- ligiously observe.
 Done at Phoenix, the capital, this 18th day of August, A. D., 1895.

Equal Distribution of Fruit

e, J. Davis shipped from Milton
tho FIRST Strawberries of the year to
the Oregon fruitmen's branch at
Denver on May 10. This opens
the green fruit shipments of the
year for Oregon, says the portland
Sun, The strawberry crop of Mill
ton is estimated at $4,000 crates,
which will be marketed in the next
30 days. There are only three
other points that ship in such guam
tities-Hood River, Walla Walla,
and Payette, Idaho. Inasmuch as
the bulk of the fruit will be mark
eted through cooperative effort,
the shippers are looking for a more
equal distribution of their fruit,
which heretofore has often glutted
some markets while others had
none. If the Oregon Fruit Union
makes a success of fruit marketing,
it will greatly stimulate the better
care and more planting oforchaTds.

A Large Increase.

AL Routh, of Umatilla county,
claims the record for his band of
sheep in ratio of increase of lambs.
He has 800 per cent increase and
has the lambs now at his camp to
prove it. Five ewes furnished this
remarkable record, four gave birth
to three lambs each, and one bear
ing four. All the lambs are alive
and healthy, and each one of the
ewes owns her lambs and is taking
good care of them.

ATHENA, MAY II 1895.

Now that Athena has a water
system and ample fire apparatus.
it devolves upon the business men
of the city to further the efficiency
Of the fire department in every way
possible. This can only be done
by letting those in their employ go
and participate in the practice tests
that occur on Wednesday night of
each week. To have a proficient
fire department it is essential that
all members be thoroughly drilled
in handling to advantage the inn
plements Of defense in case Of fire.
Whether we have a department
that can be depended upon in case
Of emergency or not, wholly de-
perds on the business men of Main
street, who have more interest at
stake than most of the citizens Of
the town have. They can mani
fest their interest in this matter by
being at their place Of business for
half an hour on Wednesday even
ing of each week and letting mem
bers of the department who are in
their employ off, to go to practice.
Unless this is done the fire depart
ment will soon be q thing Of the
past, for a half dozen men can do
nothing with the apparatus. Each
business house on Main street
should furnish at least one man to
the department. The hook and
ladder truck has not been out of
the stall for year, whereas the
company should have full mem
bership and weekly practice. Cen
tlemen, it is highly important that
you give this matter your undivin-
ed attention.

Is II not true that the demand
for any article produced governs
its value to large extent? Does
not this law of supply, demand and
value control the price Of wheat,
oats, corn, live stock and whatever
else is raisedP 1t this is true, then
is it not logical conclusion and
does not the fact remain that if we
have silver occupying the same
purchasing and paying power as
that of gold, that the scarcer metal
gold, would be lowered in value,
since the demand for it would not
be so great?

agents of the Rothschilds and 9TH
ers of all the gold obtainable. There
is no question but gold is now be-
ing exported from this country in
large sums, which the United States
government has no interest in.
The annual output of gold, while
in excess of recent former years,
will not benefit this country in the
least, and either is promise of a
marked advance in the price of gold
bullion. When this occurs it will
show more clearly than anything
else the danger of the gold basis.

The recent improvement in the
quotation of silver has been ascrib-
ed entirely to the prospect of de-
msnd from China and the Orient.
There is no doubt but that the OPP
ening up Of China will cause a
great increase in the demand for
silver, but without any extraordin-
ary demand from that quarter
there is bound to be natural inn
provement in the quotation due to
the fact that the supply is not equ-
al to the demand nor is the pro-
duction likely to be metierally in
creased until the quotation ranges
up in the neighborhood Of a dollar
an ounce.

Western Packing and Fertilizing

there with capital of $4,000, to

the great American taste can be

REPUBLICAN clubs throughout
the state are sending full represen.
tations to the meeting in Portland
later in the month. The manag-
ers, who are in sympathy with the
Dolph single standard gold idea,
depreciate any expression of politi-
cal views by the delegates, assert
ing that clubs only exist to elect the
ticket nominated, then the party
can enunciate party policy. In
other words delegates can meet in
Portland, says the Eugene Guard,
sit around like numsculs, elect a
few delegates, express no opinion
on the financial and other national
questions, then go home feeling
like idiots. If such a program is
carried out, a revolt similar to that
experienced at the last legislature
may be expected. Times have
come when leaders, who do not rep
resent the views of the people, can
gain no support through cajolery
and party prejudice.
