Cleveland in the last two years
has issued $262.O00,O0O III bonds
to got gold to koop up the credit
of the government. There is a
probability that more bonds will
be issued. Some say the new is
sue will amount to 100000, 900.
The bonds already issued will run
our annual interest account up to
;S0,0OO,OO0. If another issue is
made to the amount stated above
tho interest to he provided for cv-
ory year will run up to about $lS,-
100000. TO meet this interest
the very highest kind of tariff
will be necessary and it will be ias-
tened upon tho country forever.
There was and is no necessity
for any such increase Of tho pub
lie debt. Harrison kept up tho
credit Of the country without any
such borrowing. All tho presi-
dents before Cleveland maintain
I'd our credit. There was no diff
Guilty. Gold or silver was paid out
at the option of the government
and no complaint was heard
Clcvcland's scheme imposed now
burdens on the people but enrich
ed him and has brought discredit
on the government.

We call attention to tho atver~
tisement of South Carolina Col
loge to be found in this issue. Tho
reputation OF this institution is
second to none in the South. The
Board of Visitors appointed for
the current year mot on the 9th of
Juno and addressed themselves oar
nestly to tho discharge of the du-
ties assigned them, visited the lee
ture rooms of the several Profess
sors, were present at such rccita-
tlonssand examinations as wore be-
ing conducted, inspected the dor
mltories, laboratics for work and
training in physics and Chemistry,
tho halls of tho Literary societies,
the lnfirmary, the Gymnasium,
and, as far as practicable, inform
ed themselves as to tho condition,
tho appliances, and the efficiency
OF the College.
They were pleased to report that
they found the College doing excel
lent work. Tho Professors arc all
enthusiastic in the development of
tho courses under their caro-: the
discipline of the institution is de-
serving of commendation and the
stuocnts, most Of thcm, seem to be
making good use Of tho opportu-
mites afforded them for scholar
ship and culture. Tho enrolment
and attendance is fifty per cout. in
advance OF last year, and it is OK
pectcd that still larger numbcr
will next yoar be entered as stu
dents OF the College.
The buildings are in good cpldi-
tlon, the grounds are neatly kept.
Tho recitation rooms and dorni-
tories are we'll furnished, and the
students have aii necessary COM
forts. Th" appliances and nppa-
ratlls in he laboratories arc AMPLE
for the illustration and emphasize
ing Of tn" principles and methods
of science, and thc students have
opportunities OF ilcaring and scc-
ing, but OF testing by actual cx-
prrimcnt, what their text hooks
and their professors teach. The
Gymnasium is large aud we'll ven
tllatcd, and equipped with improv-
eel apparatus for systematic phvsi-
cal exercise and development. The
lntirmarv is admirably arranged
and under excellent management.
and students who have the mi$ror-
tunc to be sick receive tho most
careful treatment and nursing.
The halls Of the literary societies
arc airy and attractive; ;on the wall
hung portraits OF distinguished
graduates, and many voting man
is doubtless inspired to most ear
most effort in his sclf-imposcd lit
crary work and mrntal exercise as
he is reminded of the great men
who, IN their young manhood,
where he stands and olouurntlv
pleaded for what they cpllcndcd
was tn" truth.

Globe is paying the penalty of pros- perity. Skirmishers from the army of hobos infesting Southern Arizona have made their appearance here. Eight Weary Willies, who made themselves obnoxious about town, were arrested on Monday night, and in order to make it as disagreeable as possible for their keepers they befouled the jail They were required to clean up the mess be- fore breakfast was given them, pen alty they had not counted upon. They were arraigned before Justice J. M. Jones on Tuesday, who imposed fines on seven of them of S15 apiece, but suspended judgment upon the under standing that they leave town at once. Two of them, evidently satisfied with the board and lodging furnished by the county. were behind the bars again last night. A diet of bread and water and work on the streets might prove effective Tn ridoing Globe of their un- welcome presence.

There seems to be decidedly erron- eous opinion prevalent concerning the opening of the Deer Creek coal fields and tho mineral district cut from the San Carlos reservation under the terms of an act passed ut the last session of congress. There is an impression that the district cut off will be open to set tlement within few weeks, whereas the fact is it will not probably be SO in less than three or four months, possibly longer. The survey of the line has been made and sent to the surveyor generals office here. An inspection of the survey must hereafter be made by an officer sent to the ground from Washington. If his report confirms the correctness of the survey the Washington authorities will order the land office here to announce the open ing of the district by advertisement for thirty days. All these proceedings take time, and persons of small means should not crowd into the coveted dis trict in the belief that in short time they would be able to make legal loca- tiops. Tucson Star.

An official communication has been received from the Auditor for the Pos. office Department, addressed to J. II. Hamill, late postmaster at Globe, in- forming him of the final audit of his postal account, and enclosing check for eighteen cents, the balance found to be due him. We were at first indig- nant that this money justly due us had been withheld for more than fourteen months, and meditated returning the check, accompanied with a demand for interest. However, upon further con- sideration We concluded to retain the check and have it framed, as its value as work of art is greater than the written amount. The check is signed by the third assistant postmaster gene raj, who must be great man as his chirography is indecipherable.

PAYsoN DISTRICT.

A correspondent sends us notes of the most important work going on Tn this rich mineral district of northern Gila county; also some specimens of ore from the Golden Wonder mine, selected by Joseph Birchett, CO., owner with the Chilson Bros. in this well known property. The ore is granular quartz and iron, showing con siderable free gold. The Golden Wonder is the oldest and still the best mIne in Payson district. The owners put in three months steady work on the mine this fall with excellent re- suits. A test run of ten tons of the ore averaged $l00 per ton, and the low grade ore, supposed to be waste, gave g return of $20 in gold. Work on the Golden Wonder will be re- sumed after the holidays.
