AN UXORICIDE CHASED.
Desperate Deeds of an Insanely Jeal-
 ous Tailor.

ROCKFORD, III. July 24-The wife
 of James French, tailor here, sepa- rated from him twice on account of his jealous disposition, the last time two months ago. Yesterday she was stand- ing at the corner talking to another woman, when her husband approached and shot her in the breast She ran
 into nearby house, but her husband
 followed her closely and emptied one of his several revolvers at her with fatal results. Alfred Barker, a danc- ing master, rushed into the house and
 received a bullet in one of his arms.
 Others who attempted to grapple with the murderer were held at bay, and in all, three revolvers and knife were
 used by French. Then he rushed to-
 ward the river, pursued by half the population of the town, intending to | lynch him. When he arrived upon the
 bank he put bullet into his head and jumped into the water simultaneously
 He was rescued by the police, and there is a possibility that he may not
 die. The coroner's jury held him
 without bail.

Prof. W. D. Knapp, superintendent of schools in Lawrenceburg Junction, Ind, is in hot water, charged with a heinous offense. The lady teachers aver that he pressed their hands and patted their cheeks. Knapp states that if he did such fearful thing his actions were unintentional and inno- cent of purpose. Now if Knapp is aged, toothless, knock-kneed, pock- marked, sallow and otherwise repul- sive in appearance, we say he should be dealt with summarily. On the other hand, if he resembles an Apollo Belvidere, and did the pressing and the patting in a graceful, discreet, and loving style, well, we are content to leave his punishment to the vote of the female voters of his district.

A FAREWELL TRIP.

In a growing, thriving town like Phoenix rents, next to labor is the heaviest item of expense in any busi- ness. Accordingly the wise merchants handles mostly goods that will require as little space as possible, be they light or heavy. Trunks and valises are of no particular weight, but when a full stock of both is carried the floor and shelf space required for a display is something enormous as compared to the value of the line displayed, while the rent for a year of this same space is an item that in time would raise the cost of every article in the establish ment. Alkire's have figured this all
 out and have decided that they can find much better use for the space now occupied by this large stock of trunks and valises, and have announced a farewell sale of every trunk, valise and satchel in their big store They must
 have room for fall and winter stocks and are bound to get rid of this line of goods before autumn. Prices have been put right down to the farewell mark and cost is not considered. AL
 kire's have determined to drop this
 line and they are going to drop it and
 those who are wise enough to know a good thing when they see it will be the gathers thereby.

The Mail and Express of New York thinks that the hardest thing that the ''howlers of the free silver camp have to contend against this year is the fact that the crops are universally good The crops are overabundant, it is true, but when it is considered that on ac- count of the scarcity of gold it is not profitable to ship abroad, and our home consumption is inadequate to the supply, and that prices are so low it does not pay to harvest, why, it would seem as if the "howlers" had good cause to howl"

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 sarsapariNas sought by every means to obtain a 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.

THE SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

Journal-Miner: Anson H. Smith, he of the Kingman Miner, wants The Journal-Miner suppressed. It is not The Journal-Miner alone that Anson wants wiped off the face of the earth, but the Tucson Citizen, the Phoenix Herald and the Coconino Sun are down ''on his list," too. Anson is modest damn modest, or he would want all the newspapers of the territory except the Kingman Miner, suppressed.
 Tucson Star: The goldbug branch of t(he Democratic party does not seem to be making very rapid progress in carving out new party.
 Tombstone Prospector: Even the scriptures are against the single gold standard. Job, who was almost as pa tient as the advocates of free coinage have been, remarked: ''Then let mine arm fall from my shoulder blade and mine arm be broken from the bone if l have made gold my hope or have said to the fine gold, thou art my con- fidence." And now we shall expect the goldbug papers to declare the bible was not an inspired work.
 Tucson Star: All the candidates for president and vice president are good and true men without exception, and any attempt to besmirch their reputa- tions can be taken to be the work of unconscionable vandals. The Ameri- can people do not put up their evil men as candidates for president or vice-president.
 Tucson Star: It seems to be pretty generally conceded that the next Dem ocratic delegate to congress will have to come from northern Arizona.
 
 Southwestern Stockman: A promi- nent cattleman was heard to remark the other day: Just so soon as poli- tics shall cut no figure in the appoint ment of the members of the livestock sanitary commission, or the places under them, then the cattlemen will realize to the greatest extent the ben efits of the laws enacted for their pro- lection. The very suggestion of po- litical influence, which places men in positions for which they are entirely unf1tted by nature or experience, takes from the efficiency of the service as it would be without political favor, and ofttimes serves to disgust men with the law" And we believe the gentle man knew what he was talking about.

THE REAL ISSUE.

The issue of the hour is ably and forcibly impressed upon us by the fol- lowing from the Minneapolis Times:
 ''The business of true science Of economics should be to solve the all- important social problems that involve the welfare of the race. It should not end in mere theories, which, apart from the mental exercise they afford, have no practical bearing upon the affairs of life, but it should be able to answer satisfactorily and conclusively the riddles that have been propounded for ages by the social sphynx. A true science of economics should do for trade and industry and society what the science of mechanics has done for the mechanical arts, or medicine and surgery for human life. Our leading economists are just beginning to awake to the fact that the money ques> tion is the core of the whole social system, and the key to all the social questions that are now the subjects of agitation and political discussion. Cur tariff, our land tenure system, the diff ferences between capital and labor are obviously of secondary importance :. to the business of placing our currency upon an equitable and scientific basis.
 t'The trouble with the money ques> ticn is that its discussion has been confined mainly to those who are mere ly representatives of private interests advocates of certain schemes, mono metallists, bimetallists, free silverites, greenbackers, ~etc.-whose labors con- sist in vain attempts to create a sci enee that shall harmonize with pre- organized, pre-arranged systems.
 'tFor four years we have been pass ing through a period of industrial and trade depression, which, although in some respects severer and more uni versa1 in its ravages, is not without numerous precedents, all belonging to the same order. Financiers, econo- mists and statesmen are as divided re- garding the cause of this class of phe- nomena-these decennial commercial crises-as they ever were. One essen tial truth, however, they are com ing to realize, and that is that panics never arise in the industrial world unless precipitated by financial dis order. And the reason of this is that the money question is the handspring of the industrial world. Hence, oul trouble is that instead of finance being as it should be, the servant of industry industry is the bond slave of finance B and the entire production and ex change of wealth is now controlled by those who control the money of tht world.
 Plainly, it is menacing and de moralizing condition of things wher the power to paralyze industry is il

The St. Joseph (Mo) Herald, ;

The St. Joseph (Mo) Herald, a strong Mckinley paper, speaking of the financial issue, says: Everybody this year has to take the middle of the road on the financial question. There is no chance for straddling or any kind of a compromise. One must eith- CT be for honest money or free silver without any ifs or ands, and we will therefore be able to get a proper yer dict of public opinion regarding the matter ''

| the hands of comparatively few in dividuals, amongst whom concerted action can be effected at any time. So | long as this condition of things pre- vails the lives and fortunes of almost 1 the whole human race are virtually at the mercy of these money changers. It follows, therefore, that the chief problem that today .confronts civiliza- ton is how to establish a monetary l system that will serve as a tool of in- dustry, without becoming, as now, its master; a system that will fulfill all the functions of a medium of exchange without the possibility of abuse or mo- nopolization.
 "If, out of the present agi a ion and discussion, there shall come a practi- cal solution of the problem how to place commerce upon its own base and restore it to the natural condition which it has been prevented from oc- cupying by law, by governmental con- trolled systems of currency, by mo- nopoly and privilege, the greatest blessing that any human mind could conceive will have been bestowed upon humanity. We shall not get much en- lightenment from those who believe that what ought to be, is, nor from those whose judgments are based upon the opinions of their favorite news papers, or the sentiments of their po- litical leaders.
 'One of the greatest evils in this country is the influence of party poli- tics upon the consideration of public questions of universal and vital i'm portance- that are essen tially non-partisan in their character. It is impossible that practical reform of any kind should come out of such conditions, or that 1t should receive encouragement or aid, either from par ty bosses or from corporations or in- dividuals who are interested in the maintenance of a monetary system which, instead of being the tool of in dustry, shall continue to be it's master
 ''If the thoughtful men and women whose lives are passed, often pain fully, in industrial pursuits, and who feel the friction and grinding of the machinery when it goes wrong, will, between now and November, give this supreme problem of the hour the study it deserves and then vote their honest convictions, the result cannot fail to be a re-achievement of our Ma tional independence, which has been ignorantly or treacherously sacrificed to the gold power.
 Let us not forget that this money question is not a mere abstract uues- tiOn of economics. It does not merely concern statesmen, students of finance. bankers and capitalists. It concerns the lives and fortunes of every mem Der of human society It affects indi- viduals, communities and nations in all their relations with each other. It is the greatest moral and the greatest social question which mankind has ever had to consider Compared to it all other questions sink into insig- nificance.

There is no scarcity Of preparations for the hair, but unquestionably the one which ranks highest in point of merit is Ayers Hair Vigor It is made from the choicest materials and on strictly scientific principles. It does not soil nor become rancid by exposure to the air, and is as perfect a substi- ute for the oil supplied by nature, in youth and health, as modern chem istry can produce It softens and stim- ulates the hair and scalp, revives and strengthens weak and disordered tis- sues, restores the original color to faded and gray hair, prevents the for nation of dandruff, cures humors which destroy the hair-roots, renders the skin healthy, moist, and active, and the hair soft, silky, lustrous, and abundant Gray hair, one of the most noticeable indications of age, may be postponed for many years by the daily and faithful use of this admirable prep aration. Give it a trial. Gentlemen as we'll as ladies prefer Ayers Hair Vigor to any other dressing and consid- CT their toilet incomplete without it.
