"Cood will to menl Good will to men"
All, who sits wan and wistful there,
No Christmas joyanee in her soul,
Upon her lip no prayer?
Good will to men! Good will to men,
in the rich place the tones made way.
The pictured saints leaned down to hear,
Green-wreathed for Christmas day.
Good will to menu o, lady fair!
In splendor weeping thus apart,
How strange it seems u ragged boy
Should have so glad a heart.
For hungry are the helpless ones
Who look and long for his return:
And bare the chamber where they Sit
And low the hearthfres burn.
Good VIII to menu The meaning pierced,
Though selfish impulse barred the way.
Deep to the lady's Utmost heart,
That shining Christmas day.
And dimpled children, che-ub-fair,
Who into Heaven had slipped away,
Seemed whispering to the mother there
Thoughts meet for Christmas day.
or little ones who moan for bread
While Christmas bells ring merrily.
30, give to them" one seemed to say,
.As once you gave to me-
Then to herself that lady said:
For my lost babes I've sorrowed long,
There comes cure for aching hearts
In that sweet Christmas song"
She called the singer from the street.
He sang it Ger and Ger again
Peace on earth to all who mourn
Good WILL good will to men!'
Through lane and alley, side by side
The singer and the lady went;
And, strange to tell, he was her guide
To measureless content.
Within her stately rooms no more
She sits and signs the hours away
The pictured saints look down and see
Sweet children at their play.

What is needed in this city, and needed at once, is an ordinance regu- lating the speed at which bicycles are to be ridden in the streets. Center and Washington streets are sometimes filled with riders of wheels who dash along at a reckless and limb-thr eaten ing speed. The increase in the num- Der of wheels in use makes some pos itive restrictions necessary. AS a men, ace to life and limb the bicycles are far more dangerous than the trolley cars or wagons. The city council should proceed to act, and the police force can do the rest. @

BUSINESS TELLS THE STORY.
J. NJ. FORD, Inspector Ph91ix Prec net

'fThe first quarter of 1896 presents the largest list of actual industrial and commercial failures in business in the United States. those in which Giabili- ties exceed assets, ever reported for a like period" Such is the report for the beginning of the last year of the Democratic party's governmental mis- management.
 The main increase of disaster in this direction is in manufacturing failures in New York. Pennsylvana and Ohio. The excess of trading failures is con- fined to Minnesota and Texas. where two large defaults recently carried down a multitude of mercantile con- cerns through no particular distress due Ito legitimate trade conditions.
 The dark record is made up from the direct results of free trade competi- tion. the crushing effect being brought with fu,I force upon American indus tries which have been struggling along against hopes of improvement under Democratic promises. Sales of foreign goods have been forced in the face of already overstocked local mar kets, leaving domestic manufactures to accumulate in the mills.
 It is true that the soup house of two years ago was largely unknown the past winter. but that was because the people have adapted themselves to the new and distressed industrial condi- tions and were in a large degree able to pinch along without calling for pub lie charity. But their purchasing power has been sorely crippled and the western producer comes in as direct sufferer from that cause.
 Business hope for the coming sum- mer must rest upon the chance that good crops at home will be accompaf- jed by shortage elsewhere. there has not been time in recent years when the markets of the world' de- manded so little from the American
 rhusbandman. The western ifarmer, however, who has been taught to Ob- serve the most rigorous economy, can buy what he is compelled to have at very low prices. This is a direct bene- fit, but an indirect loss-for the manu- featuring wage earner is consequently crippled in purse to an extent that compels him ito even more rigid econ omy, and the farmers products are a drug which finds no sale at all, where

NONE BUT AYERS AT THE
 WORLDS FAIR.

Ayers Sarsaparilla enjoys the ex- traordinary distinction of having been the only blood purifier allowed an ex- hibit at the Worlds Fair, Chicago. Manufacturers of other sarsaparillas sought by every means to obtain showing of their goods, but they were all turned away under the application of the rule forbidding the entry of patent medicines and nostrums. The decision of the Worlds Fair authori- ties in favor of Ayers Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows: Ayers Sarsapa- rilla is not patent medicine. It does not belong to the list of nostrums. It is here on it's merits"

A ONE ACT FARCE.

The bolters' primary yesterday was a one act farce at which stalwart Re- publicans were very much amused.
 There are more than 1900 Republi- can voters in Phoenix precinct, yet less than one-third participated in the bolters' primary yesterday. Some of these voted because they are not now and never have been Rpubli- cans, some were attracted by the music. others were cajoled, some were coerced, while still others voted just through courtesy to misguided friend.
 Every effort was used to secure vot- CTS. Money was as liberally spent as though there had been a contesting ticket in the field. Carriages were kept on Iihe streets during the whole of the afternoon and the farce was we'll played until the curtain fell.
 It was really amusing to Republicans and as this was the only precinct in the county that engaged in Ithe bolt it will prove harmless.
 The record is bad for the individual bolters, but the party is not likely to
  nifcant minority.

NOT ALL GOLFERS.

Yesterday afternoon several Repub- licans called at this office to say that their names were being used on the bolters' ticket without their authority or consent. And it has since devel- oped that at least a fourth of the names on the ticket are unauthorized. They will not attend the trump con vention and they will not give prox- ies, so the bolters will have a very small convention indeed
 The call for the trump convention provides for the election of seventy nine delegates. So far as heard from none of the precincts outside of Phoe- nix held primaries yesterday and of the thirty-two delegates elected here not more than twnty -four will attend the convention. So that the trump convention will consist of less than a third of the seventy nine delegates uhat were to have been elected.
 A few men can organize a bolt, but it is rather difficult to hoodwink enough stalwart Republicans to give the move ment respectab;lity.

WHOSE WAS THE DEADLY AIM ?
A Matter Over Which the Faithful
 Have Begun ito Scrap.

Tucson Star: If it is not one thing it is another, ito keep one end of the Arizona Democracy in turmoil. A new casus belli has arisen and the forces which have been solidly arrayed against the administration, cemented together by the principle, Anything to beat Grant, are now breaking up. The distracting question is, 'Who re- moved Governor Hughes?"
 Thomas B. Parish said he did with his little pen. Benjamin Fickas says he set the territorial Democratic ma chinery in motion with fatal result. Those faithful, but almost despairing brethren, Fred G. Hughes, Judge Woods and Chas. ShibeIl of Tucson, said they compassed the governors s overthrow by their never ceasing prayers. Judge Barnes says he sowed Stroying whirlWind in Arizona. Mark Smith telegraphs back that he is the persons to whom the threatened Ari- zona owes her salvation from the dreaded MinotarT. Frank Heney and Marshal Meade claim a still more im- portant part in the cataclysm. They were the prophets who dwe1t upon the heights and kept the sacred fires burn ing for the edifcation of the st1ug- gling malcontents in the valley below For their further edification and en- couragement they delivered themselves from time to time of prophecies that Hughes woMuld be removed neN. week.
 This question of who removed the governor is serious and unsettling as it is cannot in the nature of things be discussed at great length. It will be absorbed by that other one, 'fNow, that the city has been taken, how are the spells going to be divided?" Then shall brother be divided against brother and hair will be reaped by the handful.

KILLED BY MULES.
Awful Death of a Miner at Stanton
 Camp.

Prescott Courier: Sunday last about
 corral at Stanton ito get a span of mules for the purpose of stalking them out
 with long ropes. The ropes were att tached to the animals and as Morgan led them to the front of the store
 Morgan attempted to hang on ltof the hobbies which he carried in his hand, on one of the mules necks, Mhereupon
 both animals wheeled around, kicked up their heels and ran. Morgan made
 one or two jumps, but was quickly
 thrown to the ground and dragged by the ropes around his arm for about
 100 yards over ground covered with
 large and small rocks. The mortified spectators saw his body bounce sev- as the mules ga.loped off. Having run
 about 100 yards the mules suddenly stopped and looked back at their pros trate owner and were still looking at him when spectators went forward, picked up Morgan and took charge of
 the animals. Morgan's skull was crushed in and his body badly bruised
 when he was picked up and carried
 into the station, where he gave few gasps and expired. Geo. V. Hendrie, who came in last evening, saw the mules run away and helped carry Nor gan into the house. ID. E. Morgan
 was a man about 40 years of age, has no relatives in Arizona, but is reported
 to have two brothers in Cincinnati, one of whom lis quite wealthy.

Crash goes the tree before the blast! It had wfdhstood the storms of many years, and was supposed to be good for many more; but dry-rot had eaten out its core, and little was left save the bark. So men in their prime often suddenly drop the burdens of life, and friends are plunged into grief. What was the mysterious cause? It is easy to say heart failure: but how much was due to the condition of the blood, the doctors seldom declare. Im- pure blood cannot but result from the mode of living with so many in this busy age. The signs of depraved blood being neglected, every organ, and especially the heart, becomes in juriously affected. There are only two courses to adopt; first, avoid the style of living which vitiates the circulation; secondly, when symptoms of blood inn purity show themselves, begin without delay, a course of Ayers Sarsaparilla. the only blood purifier that can be re- lied upon to cleanse and invigorate the system; the only one adjudged worthy of exhibition at the Chicago Worlds Fair
