In Kansas they have introduced

per gives the following scale of

cents for only short squeeze; from
sixteen to twenty, 80 cents; twen-
ty to twenty-five, Is cents; SCHOOL,

looks, 10 cents to s.; old maids,
only 3 cents or'two for a nickle,
and not any limit of time. Preach

pay in advertising, but are not al
lowed to squeeze, any but old maids

Hard times, strange to say, did
not lessen the previous consump-
tion of cigars and cigarettes. The
sales of the latter during the past
year amounted to 8, 33S, ,845,500, on
increase over the preceding year.
There were manufactured during
the same time 4, l30, 440,376 cigars,
an increase of 63,522,93S. This
will surprise many people who
think that stringent times lessen
tobacco consumption. One ex-
planation is that tobacco, instead
of being classed as a luxury, has
without notice secured a place
among necessities.

What Abraham Lincoln
Foresaw and RrOphesied.

Abraham Lincoln viewed the en-
croaehment of the money power
with alarm, believing that thereby
the life of the Republic was en-
dangered, and shortly before his
death penned the following:
"Yes, we may all congratulate
ourselves that this cruel war is
nearing its close. II has cost .
vast amount Of treasure and blood.
The best blood Of the flower Of
American youth has been offered
on our ccantry's altar that the
country might live. Il has, indeed,
been a trying hour for the Repub-
lie, but I ein the near future q
crisis approaching that unnerves
me, and causes nae to tremble for
the safety of my country. As
result OF the war. corporations have
been enthroned and all era Of corr
rupticn in high places will follow
and the money power Of the coun-
Try will endeavor to prolong it's
reign by working on the prejudi.es-
OF the people until oil the wealth
is aggregated ina few hands, and
the Republic is destroyed. 1 feel
at this moment more anxiety for
the safety of my country than ever
before, even IN the. midst of the
war. God grunt that my suspi-
cions may be. groundless"

The people of Arizona as 8 rule
are in too much of hurry. They
are impatient and can't bear to

them in their anxiety, yet we are
in the same condition of all new

wait developments. 1t is true that
We have made greater inducements
to capitalists and settlers than had
many Of the leading states, yet in

ress, we must wait onr turn at for

Here is picture of the Wall
street shark as drawn by that ma

the Fortieth Congress Senator
Sherman said: "If the bondholder
refuse to take the same kind Of
money with which he bought the
bond, he is an extortioner and a
repudiator. No bond or other
government obligation was made
payable in gold. The interest up
on the bond was payable in coin,
the principal of the original bond
in lawful money! and the refund

Irrigated Regions.

Every thinking man knows that
the nations farms are becoming
exhausted. The area on which
crops may be grown without arti-
fetal irrigation is already pretty
veil occupied. Dry farming is .
lottery. Irrigation means maxi-
mum crops year aftcr year, and no
failures. The great empires of
earlier ages have been founded on
irrigation agriculture, but Aneri-
cans have hesitated and doubted
until a crowded population nov
forces them to it, and these peopas
who are now reaping marvellous
profits from small tracts are be-
ginning to realize how much better
off they would have been a decade
ago if they had known what neces-
sity has finally taught them.
In the next thirty years 7C,000,-
600 people must be located some
where, as the population doubles
every thirty years. Possibly the
farms of the older settled states
may be subdivided and irrigated. so
making each smaller farm more
valuable than the original one, but|
as a rule new people seek new
pastures. Moreover, agriculture
always is far greater success in
an arid region for within the limits
of the water conditions are favor
ably for maximum plant growth.
Arid America embraces l 900, ,000,.
900 acres. OF this vast area it is
that 100,000,000 acres
may be irrigated with the available
water supply, and this reclaimable
area is estimated to ba capable OF
sustaining, directly and Indirectly,
three times the present population
of the Union, or 2l0, 100000 peo-
pie. Kansas City Star.

"The movement to totally demone-
tie silver is stupendous conspir-
acy conceived by the moneyed in
terests of all countries to increase
the value of one-half of the worlds
metallic money by destroying the
other half. The successful consul
nation of that conspiracy would be
more disastrous to the people OF
this world than war, pestilence and
famine" A cabinet Office has ST.

Arizona is undergoing great de-
Yelopment. 1t is being appreciated
by the developers of the great
southwest, Its great mineral
treasure boxes are being opened.
Its great valleys are being culti-
waited. Its great forests Of pine
timber near Flagstaff are being
made use of for lumber, and last,
but not least, the Territory of
Arizona is being grid-ironed by the
iron horse of commerce, whose
whistle sounds the death knell of
croakers and announces the prog
ress of enterprise. Arizona is the
immediate "back country" OF
Southern California, It's citizens
summer with US during the heatep
term. It's citizens buy their goods
more and more from us yearly. Its
people are wide-awaks, broad
guaged and honorable, and the
people of Southern California
should cultivate their acquaintance
ship, for they are our neighbors on
the east, and their great region OF
Arizona is our back country.
