GOVERNOR CULBERSON GAME.

Himself.

Texas young Governor tried eve
ry expedient he could command to
stop the fight at Dallas, which is
billed to be pulled off there on the
31st, and finding a lion" in his way
at every turn, has resorted to the
fact that he can call the Legisla-
ture together and pass a law that
will keep Texas free from enter
tanning the physical cultured ag-
gregation of harm stormers about
to be inflicted on his state. The
governor has his call on the follow
ing points:
"Whereas, A decision of the
presiding Judge of the Court of
Criminal Appeals lately rendered
will embarrass the execution of the
laws of the state against prize fight
ing and other associated infractions
of good order and the public peace,
now imminent and threatened and
Whereas, There is no certainty
of determination of the soundness
of said decision by a court of final
resort in time for existing emergen-
cies; and
Whereas, 1t is proper in avoid
ance of every pretext for disre-
garding the laws that all controv-
ersy respecting them should be
removed by legislation and all rea-
sonable pacific means resorted to
in the first instance to enforce
item; and inasmuch as the present
Legislature UNANIMOUSLY passed
such a prohibitory law on the 10th
and oath day of April to become
effective August l, 1895, as part of
the penal code, it should require a
session of only a few days at a small
cost to remove any possible defect
and put the law into immediate op-

vested in me by the constitution
thereof, do hereby call special
session of the Twenty-fourth Legis-

day, October 1, 1895, for the fol-
lowing purposes;
| 1. To denounce prize fighting
and kindred prrctices in clear and
unambiguous terms and prohibit
the same by appropriate pains and
penalties, putting the law into i'm

necessary provision for its enforce.

A DELIGHTFUL TIME.
Three Hundred Sunday School Scholars Enjoy
Themselves Near Togus Lake.

About 800 people, the superintendent,
teachers, scholars and friends from Bolton
Hill, Leavitt Flat, Church Hill and North
Parish Sunday school, united in picnic
held at the grove of Mr.. r. G johnson of
this city, on the north shore of Togus lake.
This grove with its spacious grounds
and commanding view of the lake, is an
excellent place for an outing.
The scholars rode in separate hayracks,
which, being handsomely decorated with
boughs and evergreen, presented a fine
appearance.
The day was spent in boating, base ball,
singing and the free use of hammocks and
swings. Different families provided them
selves with basket lunches. Refresh
ments, consisting of bananas and soda,
were served TO the crowd.
The picnic was pronounced great
success, which was due largely to the ef-
orts of the superintendent of the schools,
and to W. f. Barrows. E. H. Ingraham

What FitZ Mac Thinks of the

Arizona stand, at the threshold of an era of wonderful social and indus trial development. There can't be a doubt about ,he fact. The dawn Tor which she has waited SO long is break inL at last. There is every promise of A day oi great prosperity and perma- nent upbuilding lust before her. The impulse of a new and energetic hope is visible everywhere among her peo- pie, while the cumulative eTsct ol many things, which make but small impression a- they :ranspire singly, i' now commanding for her full share of attention and interest abroad among homeseekers and capitalists,
 A lively competition has sprung up for the possession Of things which have heretofors gone a begging for ownership. There is scramble for franchises. Nothing more surely in dicates great industrial awakening 2 than this. The rates of interest are falling to moderate figures. Nothing mere surely indicates confidence and competition among the money lenders tEan this.
 Arizona has received that climactI- cer period which every western state  has experienced sometime in its his tory when, after long and weary s,rug- gle and doubt, with each side Of the balance, first up and then down, the clouds of despondency have suddenly rolled away and suu-bprst oi ener- gizing hope has thrilled the dropping spirits of the people 10 greater and brsver endeavor than before.
 For the last twelve years the subj dence oi the great Tombstone boom and the completion Of two transconti- mental lines of railroads across her territory-Arizona has rather dropped out of public attention, but in that time she Las been quietly accommodating 2 s fund of substantial wealth and a force cf moral character which qualify her now 10 rIse mp and take her des- tiny in her own hands
 The population oi arizona is Mex ican. ] his Is mistake of great i'm. portsncc from the moral point ot view There is but one considerable center Of Mexican p pulstion in the territory the city of Tucson, and even there il is not by any means at present the predOmiuating element.
