MORGAN SPEAKS OUT.


Senator Morgan OF Alabama said: eff
the President has the power to disregard
a law enacted by Congress, over his veto,
we have ceased to live in land OF laws
and find In our Presidential office a
power not pretended to by any monarch
that exists in the world, or has existed
since the dissolution of Parliament by
Cromwell. MIR. .Olney puts the President
IN this category. ! trust little more
reflection will satisfy him that the COM
rrander in chief of the army and navy
cat,not also become the dictator In the
civil power of the government OF the
United States.
Mr.. Morgan said the committee acted
solely upon the facts in the President a
message and these facts fully justified the
COURSE tbev had taken. Mr.. Olney was
tiyiasd of this fact when he was before
the oomnlttee and did not, Mr.. Morgan
saia. pretend to controvert ii. Before
the cow n1tttee Mr.. Olney's only point
was as to the existence of civil govern
1uens In Cuba controlled by the people
of the island and upon this point he ar
gred against the duty OF the United
States TO intsrvens for the causes set
forth in the Presidents message. Mr.
Asorgan said Mr.. Olney insisted that de-
fng was better than action for the sake of
preserving good relations between Spain
and the United States. Mr.. Olney set
before the committee no fact that would
tend to control it's action, In addition to
these found in the message except that
in April last he made an overture to
Spain to intervene but received no reply

so NATURAL,

The following from an exchange clearly defines Ehe position of MT. Bryan on the tariff question and also presents a sample of his ''unanswe err able logic:" 1
 Mir. W. J. Bryan was a member of the ways and means committee in the Fifty-third congress. When the Will son bill was pending before that con- mittee James A. Chambers and other window glass workers of Pittsburg testified to the prosperity of their in dustry under the Mckinley tariff. Mr. Bryan, addressing Mir Chambers, said ''You were able Ito extend your plant because you are nothing but public robber." ''H he is robber, what are we?" demanded Charles Bryant, who sat near. "You are nothing but pub. lie beggars," retorted MT. Bryan. The friends of protection to Ameri can industries will remember that MT Bryan classified them as either robber
 or beggars.

CAN ARIZONA AFFORD IT?

Reports continue to come in to head quarters that the contest for congress sional delegate is between the apostle of Watson and A. J. Doran, tdhe Re publican candidate. There is another contestant, but he. for all practical purposes, is running on the Populist platform and will only serve to weaken the strength of these probably we'll in- tenkioned, but misguided people.
 A drowning man will clutch at Straws, so will considerable class in any nation during times of political unrest chase after any phantom that promises relief from distressing condi- tious. Every state and territory in tFris mighty Union has for over three years suffered from panic, suspicion end contraction of circulation. Ari- zona has suffered with Hhe rest in a greater or lesser degree and unfor- tunately, these conditions have given rise to party that stands on 9 plat form of wild and impossible promises But which guarantees nothing.

 Tucson Star: When candidate is possessed of intemperance, broken pledges, double dealing, a leprous character, a crooked record, crowned with ingratitude, he has big job on hand to convince Ehe people that he is the man to represent the homes and families of this territory.
  Journal Miner: If Arizona wants a delegate in congress who will be in harmony with the next administration they should elect A. J. Doran.

There seems now to be no doubt that whatever else Illinois may do, her vot- CTS will at the coming election forever rid themselves of that enemy of law and order, All:geld. The elevation of this tried and true friend of anarchy, destruction and repudiation to the governorship of a great state has taught the people of Illinois dear les- son, and has injured their credit to a greater extent than Populism did that of Kansas. Altgeld claimed soon after the Chicago convention that Bryan would carry Illinois by 100000 major ity. He has lately reduced this one- half, which means to conservative peo- pie that Bryan will not carry the piv- otal state at all. Democratic campaign managers see I1he hand writing on the wall and have given it out that the an-
 archy plank in 6Iheir platform was a sop to Altgeld for which he was to pull
 the state through for the National
 ticket. To fully round up the cup of
 sorrow of tine people of Illinois, the announcement is made that Bryan and Afgeld will canvass the state to- gether just before election. The old theory that two heads are better than one will not go in this case. It might if these fellows were muzzled.

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."

THE SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

Albuquerque Citizen: Whether you wish to have gold, silver, copper or pewter dollars, it is best to vote the Republican ticket.
 Tucson Citizen: They say, do whole lot of the Democratic papers in Ari- zona, that Doran is running for con gress on a gold platform. We'll, never mind, brethren; don't grieve. Doran is an honest man, no matter upon what platform he stands; and there are enough admirers of honesty in Ari- zona to elect Doran to any office he wants.
 Williams News: The campaign in is now actively in operation. Candi- dates are doing considerable quiet rustling and electioneering, and it is pleasing to note the general feeling of good will and fairness between the op- posing nominees. The indications point to clean, honest campaign throughout and whichever men succeed the people will have the satisfaction Of knowing fthat ehey are the fair choice of the people.

The secretary further stated that, according to the reports received by the stale committee, MT.

Constipation is usually habit of the body induced by prolonged inattention to the calls of nature It is a condi- tion so perilous to the general health, that it should be relieved as speedily, but judiciously, as possible. People who have allowed themselves to be- come costive and irregular usually try to remedy the evil by the use of violent purgatives, and the result is that the l bowels become weakened and the dis order all the more difficult of cure. The medicine best calculated to pro- duce natural movement and at the same time to strengthen the bowels, is Ayers Pills. When taken according to directions, the result is always bene- hclal. A few doses gently stimulate the bowels to healthy action, restore their lost tone. and promote easy avac uations. No other pill so we'll supplies the demand of the general public for a safe, certain, and agreeable family medicine. Physicians recommend them.

Chestuuts for Profit.

Upwards Of $1,000, 900 worth Of nuts,
mostly chestnuts, are imported annual
ly into the United States, yet chestnuts
are selling at as much per bushel at this
time as they did during the war. At
present prices, there Is hv more inviting
field In all horticulture than the grow
ing of these improved chestnuts. At
this time, when the prices Of many
farm products are verging on the cost
of production, and some going far be-
low 1t, improved chestnuts not only yield
a large profit to the grower, but some
times make returns that seem fabulous.
A grove once planted Is q source or
great revenue for generations. own a
farm Of 40 acres Of land nt Emile, Pa,
and have nearly 1000 grated Paragon
chestnuttree six years old ON the farm;
some Of the trees bore from six to eight
quarts of nuts per tree this fall; this
grove of chestnuts will yield more rev.
enue for the year 1890 nan all the rest
of the farm. 1t is to be remembered that
large tracts of land suitable for this
crop can be bought at So to $40 per acre.
Much has been written on how to keep
boys on the farm. The problem would
be solved If the farm could be made
profitable. With twenty acres Of i'm
proved chestnut trees in bearing the
strife among the boys would be, not
who will go to the city, but who will
stay on the farm.

and as facing to the ripple basque,
revers and wired collar. Inside the
latter there is white satin collar, end
ing in lace jabot, and the cape-like
coverings to the sleeves are In two
parts, one of lace, the other Of cloth.
All the edges are bordered with gold
and steel galloon, and white satin bows
are put on the cloth cape pieces.
Strap garnitures that make a great
show of fastening parts of dress to-
gether and that really have no pur-
pose beyond that Of ornamentation are
still In vogue, but on them buckles have
given way to buttons, and 1t Is more
often the plan to have the straps serve
as fasteners. The final gown to re-
ceive the artists attention Is a COM
promise in this matter, the straps upon
bodice being practicable, while on the
skirt and sleeves they are solely for
effect. The STUFF from which they are
cut Is tan cloth, the other goods being
brocadea green satin. Panels Of the
latter appear on the skirt, and 1t gives
the whole bodice, the collarette being
from the cloth.
The blaze of color In spring and sum-
mer will rival the tulips. Hats, too,
are almost garish in their abundance
of bright hues. Turquoise blue prom
ises to be the most popular summer
color, but geranium scarlet and bright
grass green are not far behind. That
means that the brunettes will have the
best Of It, but they need not be over
confident. lest some sudden shift of
favor turn the tide against them.
