FISH AND GAME.
Warden Henry Intends They Shall he
Protected in Missouri.

( JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-. July 6.-Jes-
sc W. Henry, who was recently APP
pointed to the Office of Fish and Game
Warden by Gov. Stone, is preparing
to enforce the game laws of the State
despite the fact no appropriation was
made for thatpurpose by the last Cen
eral Assembly.
He said: Lack of money will some
what Interfere with a proper enforce
ment of the law. still much can be
done. Various spirited men will
give sOmethin" to aid in enforcing the
law. / am empowered under the law
to appoint deputies, and | shall make
such appointments and shall author
ize and instruct my deputies to destroy
all traps. seins and other illegal de-
vices for catching fish. and it is my
intention to so organize the State that
those persons who violate the game
laws and kill game out OF season shall
be prosecuted and made to pay for
their folly. In the past there was
plenty of game in Missouri and our
water courses were full of fish. The
only way to again ill our forests with
game and our streames with fish is to
preserve the young and not allow too
great a destruction of the old. The
present law is sufficient to accomplish
this if properly enforced. invite the
corporation OF all persons who are
in sympathy with the purposes of the
game and fish laws

AccOrdingtO statement made by the
Bureau of Statistics of the Treasury
Department. the amount of revenue
derived during the eleven months end
ing May 81, 1895, from our imports OF
sugar, iron ore and bituminous coal
was as follows: Coal. bituminous.
S537, $50: iron ore, $e02, 30S: sugar SD =
642, ,64S. Total, SI6.2S2. S36.
Had these three articles been placed
upon the free list the deficiency of
the Treasury Department for the fiscal
year just ended would have been in
crease by nearly SIS. 900, 900. This ad-
ditional deficiency the people would
have paid now, or later on. in the
shape of an additional increase in the
national dept. There would have been
nothing free to the people, excepting
the mere cry of free raw material. If
the people do not contribute to the
revenue of the country in one way
they do SO in another. The free;
cry is a humbug.

PULLING FOR TRADE.
And it is Going Their
Way.
The Merchants OF Commerce are
Making an Effort to Hold the
Trade of scott County.

The merchants and business men of
Commerce are making an effort to
head off Cape Girardeau. For many
years the merchants of this city have
been getting a large trade from Scott
county and especially from the north
part of that county. \ few years ago
all the wheat raised in the wheat sec
ton of Scott county was hauled to
this city. But it comes here no more.
1t is either shipped to St. Louis or
hauled to Commerce. The business
men Of Commerce have made it their
business to see the farmers and they
have pleaded with them to keep their
money at home. They have persuaded
them to believe that they can get as
much in Commerce for their wheat as
they could get in this city
and of course the Commerce
have promised to sell them
goods at Cape Girardeau prices. How
we'll they have succeeded in their efforts
to keep trade from coming to this city
is plainly visible. a few years ago
at this season OF the year We could
count twenty or thirty Scott county
wheat wagons on our streets any day
in the week. Now We seldom see a
wheat wagon from that county.
Can our merchants not devise some
plan whereby to bring back this once

Gov. Mckinley. of Ohio. is the only
Executive in the country who has not
the power of veto. 1t seems that the
Buckeye State has done business with
out this provision for years. The
story of how it was abolished is inter-
esting. Years ago Ohio Governors
derived a big share of their income
from marriages. for performing which
they were allowed & each. In the early
days that was large sum, and the
Executives counted this a principal
scource Ofrevenue. Finally. the fee
was abolished by legislative enact
ment. but the Governors salary was
sufficiently increased to cover the fees
thus lost. Gen. Arthur st. Clair, who
was then Governor of the Territory.
vetoed the bill abolishing the fees and
signed the one raising the Governors
salary. This performance. so the
story goes. so angered the people
that they,sOon afterward abolished the
veto power. and later took it out of
the Constitution. Buffalo Express.

 The foregoing statements are not exaggerated; in fact, they fall short of doing justice to this derful land. Pineapples, dates, almonds and wal nuts will do well. Strawberries raspberries black berries entrants, gooseberres, and all varieties of small fruits can be successfully cultivated Indeed, Yuma County is not only the natural home of tho citrus and semi tropical fruits, as almost every fruit, nut, plant, grain, grass vegetable which be produced in either tropc or temperate zone, will thrive in it's rich and fertile soils.

 Because good land is becoming scarce, and if you don't catch on now, your last chance will soon be gone.
 Because the country is one of the few regions of the United States that yields the products of the temperate and semi-tropic zones.
 Because the worker receives a fair com pensation for his labor, and the 'rustler' has field for the display of his energy and en- tefprise.
 Because there are neither biizzards or tornadoes, earthquakes nor inundations, snow-stOrms nor cyclones. Because the vast and varied resources of the country are yet to be developed.

Arizona stands at the threshold of al era of wonderful social and industrial de velopment. There can't be doubt about the fact The dawn for which she has waited so long is breaking at last There is every promise of day of great pros pefity and permanent upbuilding just be- fore her. The impulse of new and ener gizing hope is visible everywhere among her people. while the cumulative effect of many things, which made but small i'm. pression as they transpired singly, is now commanding for her full share of atten tion and interest abroad among home seekers and capitalists
 4 lively competition has sprung up for the possession of things which have hereto fore gone a-begging for ownership. There is scramble for franchises Nothing more surely indicates great industrial awaken. ing than this. The rates of interest are falling to moderate figures. Nothing more surely indicates confidence and competition among the money lenders than this
 Arizona has reached that climacticer period which every western state has ex- perienced sometime in its history when. after long aud weary struggle and doubt, with each side of the balance first up and then down, the clouds of despondency have suddenly rolled away, and a sunhurst of energizing hope has thrilled the droop- ing spirits of the people to greater and braver endeavor than before.
 For the last twelve years the subsistence of the great Tombstone boom and the com pletion of two transcontinental lines of railroad across her territory-Arizona has rather dropped out of public attention, but in that time she has been quietly ac- cumulatiug fund of substantial wealth and force of moral character which qualify her now to rise up and take her destiny in her own hands.
 The population of Arizona is Mexican. This is a mistake of great importance from the moral point of view.

Resources
 of Yuma County.
YUMA COUNTY.

A white nan first set foot on what is now Ynma County in l77l. It IS the southwest division of the Territory, and one of the four original counties of the Ter ritery. Many great reclamation projects are however on foot, and in few years ex- pect to see Yuma County rated as the richest in the Territory.
 The first glimpse the traveller from Cali fornia catches of Arizona is that of the picturesque town of Yuma, which is snugly situated in the embrace of gentle rolling hills, upon whose erests and sides the modern homes of our superior civilization are crowding the adobe dwellings into eternal oblivion. Yuma is the gateway to Arizona, the new empire of the West, upon whose undeyeloped riches the eyes ot the ountry are at present turned, and as such, she is bound to grow and prosper with rapidity that at present can hardly be re- nlized. But coupled with her geographi- cal position we find that she is the center of a country whose agricultural possibili- ties are practically unlimited, being sur- rounded by g soil the fertility of which exceeds that of the delta of the Nile, and wanting only water to become paradise ot bloom. Billions of gallons of that precious fluid have annually gone to waste at Yuma's very doors, but already reaction is taking place and many enterprises are on feet to supply the life-giving waters of the yellow Colorado to the thirsty earth.
