New York Herald.

New York Herald,
The great American game of
poker has been given a new
impetus by those philanthro.
pists of their kind, the men who
enjoy the game. The only fault
that could be found with this
Senatorial pastime was that it
did not admit enough players
who could lose money. The
rules of the game were all right,
because those were works of
genius and are as elastic us the
atmosphere, but the hitch came
right in the pack, because
Pharaoh l. of course didn't
know anything about poker
and he is believed to have been
the first man who ever correct
~ called n tnrn.
Some beneficent spirit has
improved the pack of iifty-two
cards, which made it rather diff
fcult sometimes for six men to
play He has dilated it into a
pack of sixty cards, so that
eight good poker players and
true may indulge their bent to
the destructioa Of their fortunes
or the repletion Of their stock Of
good tempel.
The cards that are added are
the eleven and twelve spots of
each suit. The ten spot in or
Der to alter it into an eleven
has an additional spot in the
centre, and TO become a twelve
spot there is giyen the card
three parallel rows of four
spots. 1t is novelty Of the
newest kind, and now there
will be no longer any unsocia
sleness about the game.
just think that under this
improved condition of things
eight of You may have had
your cards dealt you, and there
will be twenty still in the pack
to choose from.

PHENIx, JULY 26. 1895.
INCREASE" IN WAGES,

4 week or more ago the New York -EUenlHg Pos indulged in the use of the deadly parallel" to show that under the operations of the Mckinley act numerous reductions in wages were made and that under the mongrel Democratic tariff act there have been numerous instances of an increase of wages. The facts given were no doub bt &rue. but the Post failed to analyze Gaem.
 Admitting that, owing to certain pre-. gailing conditions, cuts in wages did follow the passage and enforcement of the Mckinley act, the fact still remains that the year 1892 was the most pros. porous year this country has ever had. The wheels were humming merrily and the deposits in the savings banks were growing rapidly. There were compara- lively few idle men and everything was progressing finely. Then came the campaign of falsehood; the preaching of the gospel of discontent, from Cleve- land down to the most insignificant Democratic stump speaker, and the Democratic victory. Then it was that the era of prosperity came to an end.
Arizona republican., 1895-07-26

Fear and distrust seized upon the busi- ness men. Mills became idle ana wages were cut to the lowest figure since the war. Following this condition of affairs ! came the repudiation of the Democratic party.
 With the great element of danger Democratic gislation-removed en- plovers prepared to recover themselves and thore have been numerous increases of wages. The Philadelphia Euening Telegraph thus comments upon speci- fic instance of this kind:
 The New York Tariff Reform club should not fail to take note of an an- nouncement of the rubber trust. It is stated that the wages of employees are to be increased an amount equal to one. half the reduction of two years ago, and there the matter stops for the present. This is the way it is with all the alleged "advances" in wages, re- ported from every part of the country. The workingmen lost many months in weary and costly idleness, in almost every branch of manufacturing trade. When there was work to do wages were 20 to 30 per cent below what they had been under wise Republican protective legislation. With partial revival of industry, on most uncertain basis, there is restoration of wages in part j; no advance whatever in any legitimate sense. The Reform club would not dare send out a bulletin showing the rate of wages in any American, industry tive years ago, under a Republican tariff, and today under Democratic tariff, yet this is the kernel of the whole question. Intelligent working men understand the business, and they will not be led astray at the polls in consequence of the desperate efforts of the free trade economists, with all their monumental capacity for statistical and industrial misrepresentation.
 This is the milk in the Euening Posts cocoanut. Supposing that A has in. creased the wages of his men ten per cent, it means nothing except he is able to pay that much of an increase over the wages paid year ago. He does not increase the pay of his men ten per cent over what they received in 1892. During the past two years he probably reduced wages twenty per cent, so that the increase puts them only within ten per cent of what they were before the Democratic blight came. The great clamor over increased wages" in nearly every instance is not justified. The in. crease is but partial restitution of cuts made since Cleveland came into nffine

FREE TRADE FOLLY.

A New York free trade journal says "We must soon find new foreign mar kets for the vast output of American fabrics or many of the. mills must run on short time and wages must become unsteady and unremunerative."
 This is the condition that confronts the manufacturers in the first months of a revival of business. The mills have been running on short time nearly two years, but instead of finding empty warehouses to fill, they find warehouses stocked with foreign made goods. And, instead of a demand that these foreign made goods be kept out of the country by return to the protective policy, the demand is for new foreign markets. Where are these foreign markets which the free traders think we can have for asking? What chance have American manufacturers of underselling foreign competitors in foreign markets when we cannot hold our own markets with the help of such low duties as they have given us? Opening our markets to free raw material kills one branch of industry without opening other markets to our manufactured goods. We have always had free cotton, but our exports of cotton clothes are limited to the coarser varitles. We have had free hides for years, and Great Britain holds her markets open to the free admission of our leather products, but we import more in that line than we export. The experience of the past two years has shown what an illusion the foreign market is. With labor cheaper than ever before, with mill owners willing to forego profits to keep their men em- ployed, we have made no progress in getting possession of the much talked ol markets of the world.

THE "STAR'S" THREAT.

WILCOX Neus: The Tucson Star, in it's issue of last Friday, contains some- what lengthy editorial. which in man. ner is threat aimed at the boards of supervisors of the respective counties of the territory, who have thus far ignored the claims of the immigration commls. sioners. It must be understood that it is the rule rather than the exception to refuse payment to these appointees, for very good reasons, doubtless. In our county payment has been refused pend ing the decision of case in the supreme
Arizona republican., 1895-07-26

court in which a decision will soon be, or perhaps at this writing has been handed down. The board was advised in this respect by the legal adviser of the county. In this connection we would add that the people of the respective counties in the territory elected dis trlct attorney for the very purpose of at- tending to their legal affairs in which the county is interested, and any action they may see fit to take will no doubt be upheld by the boards of supervisors, the members of which are elected for the purpose of guardedly transacting the business of the county in the interests of the taxpayers. A threatening atti- tude at this time, in reference to this matter and from this particular source, is regarded by an intelligent people as entirely uncalIed for. We do not be- lieve it will have any influence what eyer with the boards of supervisors, but that they will do In the premises as they believe best for the people and in accordance with precedent esta blished by the highest court of the territory in similar cases.
