The Cattie Seizures.

Not much oi further interest has transpired concerning the cattle ceiz- ures by the Mexican custom officers, below Yuma. No demand was made on the owners for the duties, and none has been made. The officers will not say what the cattle were seized for, except that they wanted to know who the cattle belonged to. General An drade told the Ame1can cattlemen that everything would be all right, and they look to him to get them out of their present trouble.
 Moore & Carney had seven head of horses belonging to Wm. Fain, and he is afraid they are in the hands of the Mexicsns.

THE fact may as well be accepted that legal hanging for murder in this country is practically played out. There were only l32 events of this sort during the last year, whereas the number Of homicides was $500. This goes to show not only decided laxity in criminal jurisprudence, but also well-1efined public feeling against the death penalty. If conyiction on charge of murder meant fife imprison ment instead of the gallows, there would be far fewer verdicts of acqdittal, and the law would be vindicated where it is now merely made a farce and a mockery. The average lury hesitstes to pronounce a man guilty when it signifies the)I@king of human life, anarfIe only alternative is to declare him innocent in spite of the evidence to the contrary.

FOrcasss for 1895.

For a number of years, Samuel Ben ner has issued annually prophecy regarding the various markets during the ensuing year. His forecast for 1894 declared that there would be "coniinued embarrassed business, bankrupted manufacturers, uuem- ployed labor and ruined farmers :" and for 1S95 he says: There is no prom ise or sign of better times for the com- ing year. The increase last year of SlO0,000, 900 in bonded debt of gov ernment does not signify that the people are contented, keeping out of debt and making money. Ever since 1873 values have been shrinking in consequence of the establishment of single gol standard, and 10 one can fathom the depths to which prices will iall. There is no property except gold which is not deprecia,ing. The average crop of grain of this country Tor this year, with fair crops abroad, will send tEe price oi wheat at Chica- go, after next harvest, down tc forty cents per bushei. The price for corn next fall will decline to 9 cents per bushe.. Fat hogs will be s Ter hun dred pounds gross next winters pack ing season. Prices for wool, cotton, iron, cattle, and horses will be on the down grade during the present year. Common sheep, after wool is taken off next year, will sell for pelt and will then bring 9 cents to the anxious in quirer. The year 1895 will not be proper time to make investments in property or to engage extensively in business enterprises"

THERE is one man for whom the threat of heinz committed to jail for cortempt of court has no terror, ard he is Train-robber Ava Johnson, who is under life sentence. When at the examination of Kid Thompson in Los he e-was urged to tell what he knew oi the Roscoe robbery, he again and again refused to testify, and added with fine irony that he didn't care whether or not the justice sent him to iail for being obdurate.

THE loyalty of Col. Vim. Herring 10

THE loyalty of Col. Vim. Herring 10 Cochise county was never more forci- ply illustrated than by his request be- fore the supreme court on Tuesday
 last to be associated with the attorney general in the case of the Territory vs Curby which is on appeal. Col. Her ring prosecuted the accused who i- serving Q life sentence Tn the penIten- tiary, but who expects to get new trial fl one is allowed. Not a dollar of compensation was acquired by Col. Herring or is expected by him for hIs strenuous and successful effort to rid this community of this man.
