REACTION SETTING IN.

A Washington special to the Balti-
more Sun" says that Republican lead
ers are receiving cheering intelligence
from the West; the people Of that SEQ
ton, while still deeply interested in the
silver question, are manifesting symp-
toms of reaction. in that they are study
ing the expressions of the Chicago plat
form, and are not now so well assured as
they were few weeks ago that the sue
cess of Bryan and Sewall, through the
coalition that has been formed, would
realize their expectations.
The West is finding that the Chicago
platform, on careful examination of that
instrument in its entirety, goes to ex-
tremes for which the West is unpre-
pared, says the correspondent, who adds
that 'the West wants to know thor
oughly what the new programme
means, how much silver it carries, and
how much for general reconstruction Of
the whole governmental fabric. 1t is
full of old soldiers who fought for the
preservation of the Union, and they are
beginning to be shy Of a movement
which, according to latest assertion, is
loaded"
This may be an inaccurate view Of
the matter, but that reaction is setting
in is conceded by the most practiced OBJ
servers. Not only the West, but all
parts of the country are discovering
that the question of protection is an Is
sue, and that it is not to be ignored,
despite the efforts Of the Democrats and
Populists to belittle 1t. They are ask
ing, too, what is the meaning of the as
sault upon the courts, and upon the
Federal power to preserve human rights
under free institutions; they are In
curing very diligently into the refusal
TO unite In the demand for restoration of
the merchant marine; and so on down
the line.

These epigramatic truths fell from
the lips of Governor Mckinley on Tues
day in an irnpromptu address to a
group Of callers. For sententious wis

pies worthy to be treasured in the mem
DRY Of every elector:
1.-THE post which the United States
must occupy in wages and industries
and in the integrity of it's finances must
be at the head of the nations Of the
earth.''
1--WE are opposed to any policy which
increases the number of the unem-
ployed in the United States even If it
does give us cheaper foreign goods"
1--WE are opposed to any policy which
degrades American manhood that we
may have cheaper products made
either at home or abroad"
My countrymen, the most unameri-
can of all appeals observable in this
campaign is the one which seeks to ar
ray labor against capital; employer
against employe."
Nothing is cheap to the American
people which comes from abroad when
it entails idleness upon our own Ia
borers."
I'VE are political equals here-equal
in privilege and opportunity depend
ent upon each other, and the prosper
ity of the one is the prosperity of the
other"

Mrs. Lease, the only Mary, is out for
Bryan and Sewall, and when it comes
to oratory, rounded periods and calam-
ity pictures, Mary can give Mr.. Bryan
and any of the Populistic Democratic
stumpers points in the game and beat
them out. Mary's speech at Cooper
Union. New York, for perfervid bathos
and doleful representations puts in the
shade anything the most bitter enemy
OF the Republican party ever delivered.
Mr.. Bryan is nowhere beside Mary for
rounded rhetorical periods. She rises
to levels of delivery in that line which he
may never hope to attain. Mary is max
ing Republican votes. Mr.. Hanna
should substitute this female talking ma
chine to keep the road, for she is doing
we'll in convincing people that next to
an enemy of freedom Is he or she who
rnourns in advance over its prophesied
death.

Professor Carl c. Plehn of the Uni
versity of California lectured before the
Political Economy Club of San Fran
cisco on Tuesday on Capital as an
Agent" in which he declared as the re-
suit of study and investigation of the
matter, that the recent financial dis
turbance was not due to lack Of money
in the country, but to failure of faith
among the owners of money, which
caused them to hoard their capital rath-
er than invest or float it. This pre-
cisely agrees with the statement of Gov
ernor Mckinley made in Ohio on~the
same day concerning the dependence of
the people upon each other, and the
necessity for repose Of confidence. 1t
agrees precisely with the expression Of
Bourke Cochran made before $4,000
people in New York the same evening.
It agrees with every conclusion yet
reached by any unbiased student of
financial economics.

The story comes in the State dis

This is a marvellous story-it reads
like exaggeration, but let it be as

The owners of this mine were poor men,
They took up an abandoned mine and

it. Now they are millionaires. They
have in a moment, by the free oppor-

American citizen, stepped from strug-

to affiuence. According to Populistlc

A Dispatch Delivered Nine Hours
 Old.

CT. Norton, General Superintend- ent of the Mexican International Railway, passed through here on Thursday nights express on his return to headquarters in Mexico.
 He is a brother of Geo. w. Norton of the Mohawk valley. Supt. Norton telegraphed his brother to meet him at the train here. The dispatch was received here at 8 :50 p. m. Thursday and delivered yesterday morning at 5 o'clock a. m. or hours after the train had left here.
 We hear of great many important dispatches being delivered like the above. We don't know whether the fault lies with the officials here or not, but one thing we do know, and that is, that it is an outrage and a shame for our citizens to be treated Tn this manner.
 If the telegraph company do not deliver telegrams here at night they should inform their patrons of the same and the senders of important telegrams would pay extra to have them delivered, no doubt.

The FavOrite Game of the Yuma In.
 dianS.

The Yuma Indians are having { great deal of sport these da-s playing a game called "Gome" (bal) on Main street. Hardly a day passes but 8 game is played for wager. An ordin. ary wooden ball the size of a croquet ball is used.
 The game is played similar to foot ball, except instead of kicking the ball, the Indian pushes his toes under 1t and then throws it as far as he can. This is continued on a dead run until the ball is thrown over the home plate. The Indian fortunate enough to get his ball over the home plate first is the winner. The dis tance to run and throw the ball varies, but will average a quarter of a mile. We witnessed game late last Satur- day afternoon between four Indians stripped to the "gee string" It was very interesting and the Yumas long black hair waving in the breeze and their copper colored body glistening in the last setting rays of the scorching sun was a sight long to be remem- bered.

With these and others, 1t is important, whether at home, at the seashore or in the country, that some thought be given to diet, and as further assistance to Nature, a good building-up medicine like Hoods Sarsaparilla had best be resorted to. If the digestion is poor, liver deranged and frequent headaches seem to be the rule, Hoods will change all this and enable everyone to return to their home and business in a refreshed state of mind and bodily health.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot reach the disease portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inf1amed condition of the mucous lin- ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the infamma- ton can be taken out this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out ot ten are caused by catarrh, which IS nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir culars, free.

The work of paving Main street is progressing nicely. The heaviest fills, which occur between Jones and Sec Ond streets, have been passed and the street is now paved nearly to Second street. If Superintendent Nugent continues to lend assistance to our Village Council we will shortly have one of the handsomest as we'll as best paved streets of any city in the Ter ritory.
 Long after Michael has passed to the aGreat Beyond" will this grand piece of work stand as monument to his name and when Yuma is a bustling metropolis the citizens of that period will say: "This street was built by Hon. M. J. Nugent."

Made a Break for Their Liberty.

Last Monday about 5 o'clock in the afternoon two convicts at work with the prison gang excavating the hill ol blue dirt on the west side of the prison made a futile attempt to gain their liberty. Wm. Neahr who was on guard at the time fired his rifle twice in rapid succession with such good re- suits that No. 1155, Deinocio Cara bella, received flesh wound in the thigh and immediately surrendered.
 During the interim, No. 1l49 Ro- sendo Dorame had a bullet whistle so close to his head that he forgot all about escaping and surrendered. Both men were serving sentences of 5 years each for grand larceny.
 Guard Neahr is said to have done some fine shooting, It will probably be some little time before any of the other convicts will try to escape when he is on duty in his vicinity.

Invasion by JapaA.

The San Francisco Journal of Conn., merce says editorially:
 It looks if as the Japanese were gn- ing to get strong hold in this coun' try, to make the United States the chief outlet for their products.
 The tea that we used to get from Japan was excellent; but Americans in America wanted more for their money, and Americrn shippers in Japan have lowered the cost. They had to take poor tea, weight It with gypsum or stone powder, color 1t with Prussian Blue to "beauty it'-which makes poor tea even worse.
 In this way immense profits have been made at the expense ot the American pubic, and likewise at the expense of the Japanese producer, whose interest it is to have the best tea consumed, because people will like it, and so want more. Good tea increase the consumption of tea, while poor tea, weighted and colored, tends to decrease the consumption.
 The American shippers stands be- tween the interest of American con- sumers and the Japanese growers. The Japanese government seems to be quite aware of this, and, at the Worlds Fair, spent thousands of dol lars showing America that we were not (and are not) using real Japan tea at all.
 We shall watch the proceedings with interest; for it will be Q good thing for the country to use good tea, and a great thing for San Francisco, which, because of climate, harbor, and trade facilities, is the natural tea mort for the United States.
