Thought, 10 the mother OF all progresu,

futile it is to embody principles in q
platform for which the public mind is

publican platform Of 1854 or 1855 which
contained q very radio. plank on land

Quarantine Suspended.

Last week the following circular wa. issued from the department of agri culture at Washington:
 It is hereby ordered that the regula. tiOns of this department issued Feb. ruary ,, 1895, defining the quarantine lines on account of Texas or splenetic lever, and the regulations of February II, lSvo, concerning the importation or animals into the United States, are modified so far is they relate to the admission of Mexican cattle into the United States as follows:
 Mexican cattle which have been in- spected by an inspector of this district and found free from any infectious or contagious disease may be admitted into that portion of the State of Cali fornia south and west of the said quar- antiDe line through the port of San Diego and into that portion of the state Of Texas south and east of the said quarantine line through the ports of Eagle Pass and Laredo. For graz Ing or for immediate slaughter cattle may be admitted through the port of El Paso. In all cases where cattle are admitted for immediate slaughter they shall be shipped by rail or boat to the point of destination on and after May l, 1895. Cattle will be ad- mitted at the port of Townsville. Tex, for grazing and immediate slaughter.
 j. STERLING MORTON, Secretary.
 A natural inquiry is why should the department suspend quarantine against Mexican cattle in the low alti- tudes Of California and Texas, with the lower latitudes of the latter state. and leave it in force in the higher of Arizona and New Mexico, where imported cattle would be no- where near the liability to disease?
 The natural inference is that two United States senators each from Texas and California, with none from Arizona and New Mexico, account for he matter.

Graham County With Is.

Judge Blake. of SahOrd, has written
 a letter to the president of the santa
 Fe. Prescott and PheniX railroad. just completed to Phoenix. calling his at-
 tention to route for the extension of
 that road which is worthy of consider.
 ation The proposed route would
 come to Florence, thence to point on
 the San Pedro river near Mammoth.
 Here a spur could be continued up the
 San Pedro to Benson connecting with
 the Sonora branch of the Santa Fe.
 From the diyerging point the main line would cross spur of the Pinal range. over an easy route come through the coal fields Of the San Carlos reser- vation and strike the Gila again at or near Thomas; thence up the Gila val. ley to SOlomonyille, then across to Duncan, again on the Gila, and from there to Silver City making connec- tion there with the santa Ee system in New Mexico. This would put the Santa Fe in possession of all the best portion of Arizona mineral, pastoral and agricultural-and give to it sys- tenn in the territory that would con trol heavy freight and passenger traffic. The population and business of Arizona is in the cultivated valleys and the roads that traverse these must necessarily receive the patron ige. This valley will before many 'ears have main line of railroad passing through it, and the suggestion )f Judge Blake, to the Santa Fe may )ring it an early day. Let us hope SO Graham County Bulletin.

 Monday Doctor George Goodfellow, territorial health officer. arrived at

 MORALES. Arizona, April 22. Gov ernOr Hughes, Tucson: No epidemic here. l have personally investigated the condition of affairs in and about Nogales, and find there are but two eases Of small pOy on this side of the llne. and four un the other, all conva- lcscent. But two deaths have oc- cured. Every precautiOn has been taken by the authorities on both sides of the line and there is no cause for alarm. All of the cases are isolated. and in addition all places are thor oughly cleansed. have arranged for the care of future cases and no person coming from the infected localities will be or has been, permitted at any time to leave Nogales. The mails are perfectly safe. Signed. Goodfellow, Territorial Health officer.
 Doctor Goodfellow's report very terScly outlined what had been done by the local authorities at Nogales to put the place on the very best sani. tary footing. The board of health has had the town thoroughly poiced and .here is not, nor never has been any danger of contagion.

The disease was said to be Of that form known as black small pox. MT. Colin Cameron, of Lochiel, of the live stock commission, who ar- rived in the city yesterday morning, confirmed the report, but was unable to describe the extent the disease had reached.
 Intellectual attempts were made to reach Nogales by wire last night but shortly before midnight the following dispatch was received at the Republi- can office from Tucson:
