ONE OF OUR REsoUR CES-
Cattle Shipments and Home Con-
sumption.

Cattle Shipments and Home Con-
sumption.
A completion of the reports Of the
live stock inspectors from the various
points in Arizona, covering the period
OF six months ending June 80, show
that the cattle traffic in Arizona was
carried on in good healthy scale. The
reports sre not yet all in from the
more distant points, but up to date they
are as follows:
The gross number OF cattle slaughter
ed in the territory during the six months
OF which the hides were inspected and
tagged, was 10,729.
Cattle shipped or driven from one
point to another in the territory, which
were inspected numbered 1850 head.
Cattle shipped from the territory I32,-
$50. When all reports are receis ed. it
is believed this number will be swelled
TO $4,000 head, or an average during
each of the months of the first half of
the year of about $4,000 head. Aver
aging the price or these animals at $40. 90
per head, and which is an exceedingly
conservative estimate, We have value
OF 8, ,275, COO as the product of the range
Tor year, which does not include the
fall sales, which usually average nearly
hRlf Of the spring sales.
In these shipments were found 273
head OF stray cattle, for which owing to
their not being represented by owner or
agent, the cash was taken by the in
spectors and sent to the Office Of the
secretary OF the Sanitary Commission,
amounting to S3,378.37. OF this amount
a considerable portion has been claimed,
and at the present time these payments
are being made at the rate of several
head per day.-Prospector.

NOW FOR TIE PoPuLIsrs.

Now for the populist national conven.
ton. 1t meets July p at St. Louis,
and the attendance is likely to be very
much larger than at either the republi-
can or democratic gatherings. The ho-
tells of ST. Louis do Lot expect TO be
overrup, but keepers of boarding houses
are preparing to reap bountiful harv-
est.
The old leaders are in favor Of the
Omaha platform, but soma of the young
or mem bers want more practical politics
and less sentiment. The Omaha declar-
alton demands government ownership
of the railway and telegraph linee; the
abolition Of the national bank system;
the free coinage Of silver; the resump-
tion OF the Issuing of green backs; the
right Of the citizen to borrow money or
the government at a nominal rate of in-
terest; system OF storage warehouses
where farmers may store their grain un-
tll satisfactory prices are reached; postal
savings banks, and free trade in all man
ufactured goods, but not in farm pro-
ducts or raw meterial that is a product
of this country.
Mr.. TaubeEeck, who is the guiding
spirit of the populist party, is Of the op-
inion that the party would make grave
mistake were il to endorse the Chicago
nominees. He claimed that the demo-
Gratis cannot be trusted to carry out the
populist program; besides, in the one
theory ofgovernment only, the free coin
ege of eilver, are the parties at all in bar
mony.

Will Cling to Gold.

An administration man, highly linked
to the government, just to try the pulee
of money, sent an agent OF his to go to
every bank in Washington to buy gold.
Not bank would sell him.
"We don't care to part with any,"
said one banker, "and l don't think in
the face OF the almost certain silver sue
cess that you can get any,"
"Could not get it if 1 offered a pre-
mium?" asked the gold hunter.
mot here" said the money changer.
81 think at some other bank you might
get gold by Offering premium of per
cent"
This premium was offered at several
other Washington banks. They refused
it. The administration scout could not
buy dollars worth of gold at any bank
Of the capital.
"lf there's to be free silver" said one
banker to him as he went his rounds,
"every dollar We have in our vaults to-
day is worth s1.5O. We're going to
hang on to it."

THE populists say they will not &C.
cept an out and out democratic leader,
but will insist on nominating a candi-
date of their own for the presidency. A
diepassionate survey OF the democratic
platform adopted at Chicago leads to
the conclusion that il the populists re,
fuse to accept the candidate who stands
upon it, the refusal will not be due to
principle-for every "ism" advocated by
them appears in the democratic pronun-
ciameDto--but, rather, to desire for
the loaves and fishes. AS the demo-
Gratis are red hot in pursuit Of the afore-
said losves and fishee,a and are using pop
ulistic ideas and devices to secure them,
il is not ST all strange that the populiets
should stand out for their share. But
the democrats are wary politicians, and
will, no doubt, succeed in making the
populIsts believe that they ought to be
satisfied with having made a sufficient
impression upon the democratic party
to induce it to substitute the views and
ideas OF populists for those hitherto en-
tertRinsd by democracy.

Nor the least of the evil effects which
the nomination by the democratic con-
vention of Nebraska Grating person
will have is the impetus which the event
is certain to give to the ambitions OF
those wearisome orators who abound,
and to sinful excess in this neck OF the
woods. Having learned that single
glittering speech did the business for
his nibs from Nebraska. every eputter-
ing pettifogger in the Grating business
is now preparing certain to oil up his
works, clap on steam, go through the
motions and inflict the result on COM
munity which already has hot weather
and the city council to struggle with.
The woods will probably be found the
only refuge from euch.-L. A. Times.

The Chronicle says: The eober Sc
cond thought is going to be adverse to
Bryan. He is en- EXTREMIST is all his
political views, but in no sense more so
than in bis devotion to the principle
OF free trade. An extreme income tag
advocate, an extreme States rights
msn--in fact. an extreme and radical
democrat in all that the phrase implies
is the man when the Chicago CONVEX
tion has presented to the suffrage of
the American people. Such a candi-
date, far from meeting the needs Of the
hour, affronts them, challenges them
and pledges himself TO leave them un-
satisfied. The best friends Of silver in
both parties do not want bimetallism
with free trade, for by that the bene-
fits of the one policy would be more
than neutralized by the harm done by
the other.

Five Days a Week.

The San Francisco Chronicle says:
Under a new order in conformity with
the rule now prevailing over It's south
ern system, the Southern Pacific will
hereafter employ it's workmen on the
Pacific system, but five days each week.
Saturdays will hereafter be holiday in
all shops west of Ell Psso and south of
Portland.
The new rule will affect about 5000
men on the entire system. 1t is en-
nounced that the change is owing to
dull business aud that it will continue
until times revive.
Manager Fillmore said Yesterday !:
This change Is made to avoid dischsrg-
ing or laying OF a number of men. 1t
simply equslizes fortunes and distrib-
utes the loss among the total number
Of employees"
The new order affects several hun
dted men in Oakland and about 1000 in
Sacramento.

Bankers Rebuff Silyerites.

II the democratic party declares for
free silver at Chicago, Kentucky almost
beyond doubt will go repu bliosp. This
is what the Louisville bankers almost
to a man declare.
The way the banks stand is shown by
their opposition to free silver and the
decided action they have made to check
the spread Of the craze.
The most striking example of this is
the fact that by mutual agreement they
have decided to refuse to lend any man
money who favors free silver. Ii makes
no difference who he is, be cannot get q
cent at Louisville bank on any terms
or security.
Several of the banks sent for some of
their pronounced silver patrons and re-
quested them to withdraw their ac-
counts. There was no reason for this,
except, as they said, ''You are trying to
destroy our interests and we must pro-
tect ourselves. We desire to have moth
ing to do with you."-Associated Press.

Dickens Personal Side.

Dickens as intimately as did any AmerI-

Personal Side of Dickens" for the Sep
tember Ladies' Home Journal. Mr.

ticle will describe the incidents of these
visits, Dickens home life, his method Of
working, and his psstimes. 1t will pos
sibly surprise Dickens friends to learn
through Mr.. Fiske that q considerable
portion OF bis library was made no OF
dummy books, which, however, offered
the author target for some OF his de-
lightful estlre in giving them titles, and
afforded his guests great amusement.
