FINANCIAL JUGGLING

President Cleveland in his annual message spread himself over great deal of ground on the financial question, in fact, over one-half of his message was devoted to that question. The document reads quite smoothly, too, from his stand point. Carefully, however, as was his mes sage written, there are some points which he does not elucidate quite clearly. In one paragraph he says:
 "The government has paid in gold more than nine tenths of its United States not"s and still owes them all It has paid in gold about one-half of its notes given for silver puT- chaSes without extinguishing by such payment Sl of these notes. When added to all this we are re- minded that to carry on this as founding financial scheme the gov ernment has incurred a bonded in debtedness of $95,OO0,OO0 in estab- fishing a gold reserve of Sl62,6l5,- 400 in efforts to maintain It. that the annual interest charge on such bonded indebtedness Is more than Sll,OO0,0O0."
 In another place he asserts that, At no time when bonds have been issued has there been any considera- tion of the question of paying the expenses of government with their proceeds. There was no necessity to consider that question. At the time of each bond issue we had a safe surplus in the treasury for ordinary operations, exclusive of the gold in our reserve"
 Again, he quotes the laws of 1878. which says: And when any of said notes be redeemed or be received iDto the treasury under any law. from any source whatever, and shall belong 10 the United States, they shall not be retired, cancelled or 1e- stroyed, but they shall be re-issued and paid out again and kept in cir culation.'
 He, however, fails to explain what has become of the S25S,3l5,4O0 in green backs that the treasury re- ceived in exchange for the same amount of gold that it issued. Has the law of 1878, that Mir. Cleveland quotes. been compiled with, and have these notes been re-issuedi If so, what were they issued fori Mr. Cleveland states that the reserve was always amply sufficient to main tain the expenses of the govern ment. This would seem to indicate that these notes, not being needed, were permitted to remain in the treasury in violation of the law of 1878 quoted by him. But take which ever horn of the dilemma he may, the financial policy of his admins tration does not appear in an envia ble light.

crude on and Reduction Work.

Our contemporary accuses this
 paper of snarling at it, and of being opposed to reduction works in Pres colt, and, and-well, of being an enemy of Prescott generally. Of course no other reader of this paper has ever seen anything in these col umns to justify such charges. The JoURNAL-MINER has for years been an advocate of reduction works here, and has tried to meet many of the arguments used to demonstrate that they will not pay. Our contem- porary does the snarling 1t charges against this paper, while we attempt to discuss principles, and not per sonal peculiarities of the editors of the other sheet.
 In regard to the crude oil fuel
 proposition, as already stated, par ties who have investigated this, state 1t cannot enter into competition with coal at the present rates of transportation. If this is a fact, it is no crime to say so. If Prescott ever gets reduction works, it will be as business proposition and not as a matter of sentiment, and whether the question of cost or gain is or is not discussed by the public or the press, 1t will be by interested parties. The one most potent objection raised by parties who, from time to time, have investigated this question, is that the output is not sufficient to justify reduction works here. This. to the JOURNAL, MINER, always seemed fallacious, as the erection of reduc- tion works would increase the ore output. Before the first railroad was built to Prescott. a few mule teams were found sufficient to keep the town supplied with goods, and some people said there would never be sufficient traffic to pay railroad. It did pay, however, as no railroad of equal mileage in the United States ever paid. Prior to the con- structiou of the railroad between Prescott and Phenix, a single stage coach was adequate to accommo- date the passenger traffic, and even that single coach was very seldom crowded. Now passenger coach is half filled daily between the two points named.
 Just so with ore reduction works here. Thousands of tons of ore which will not pay for shipment abroad, would pay to be brought here for treatment, and if the par ties who have investigated the oil i fuel subject are mistaken in their l figures, and if, as a matter of fact, l crude oil will help to solve the | the JoURNAL-MINER will |

MERRY CHRISTMAS BELLS.

The merry bells of Christmas tide are
 here, After an absence of a year. To very many 1t means moments of delight, But some see Christmas in a differ ent light. For Santa Claus is very good to some, Why is it that he is not so to every onei I'm not sure you'll thank me for my reason, Because it may not set we'll at this season. But lots there are who have no Santa Claus, Because they have no papas or mammas. And you with eyes all closed, ny naughty neighbor, See not, hear not, care not, for ties not pleasant, To worry your poor head about an- others present. But one thing you cannot happily do without. You will find it every where, it's al- ways about. Pity for those who, from causes you cannot say, Are not as happy as you are this Christmas day. Go you with me, and to those who have no cheer, Dive into your friendly pockets with out fear, And reap a pleasure gratitude thus given, Your reward is sure; 1t will take you to Heaven. F. A. FoRD.

Tough on PheniT.

The Sheboygan (WisJ Journal notes the departure of one of She boygsn's citizens for Phenix, in the following pathetic manner:
 Edgar End left today for Pine nix, Arizona, to spend the winter. Edgar Is nice fellow, and his friends regret that he has immi- grated to such a tough country. That he does not get choked by a highwaYman, or accidentally shot as a horse thief. or bucked into eternity by a mustang pony. is the sincere wish of his friends in this city"
 That Sheboygan reporter had evi- dently been reading the illustrated alleged newspaper of the Capital City, which glorifes crime and paints Arizona as a tough country" where the shoot -'em-up" element holds full sway.

 Mir. Dubois regretted that the president had felt called upon to send such a financial message at this time. "The president must have known that he cannot accomplish either the retirement of greenbacks or the authorization of bonds. A possible result would be to pre- cipitate tariff agitation, and. so far as financial legislation is concerned, the country should understand, as every Senator here understands, that as soon as the Senate had an oppor- tuuity, it would adopt the resolu- tion offered to-day by MT.
