TnosE who are so loud mouthed about the position of the Arizona re- publican delegation at St. Louis, who took the sensible course and remained with the convention, forget that the American government from the very beginning was q scheme of compro- misses. When framed the constitution was not exactly what any delegation in the convention wanted, but on all questions it embodied what could be granted to any with the best interests of all the rest in view. So with the republican platform t may not be all that silver mining interests in the west would like, but it declares boldly for the only cause which can effect what they want.

TIE Stockman says: The work ings of the cattle inspection laws have been more satisfactory this year than ever before. This is partly due to the better acquaintance with their duties on the part Of inspectors, and better acquaintance with the laws and the resulting benefits on the part of the stockmen. Where q few years ago cattle were gathered up indiscrimi- nately and taken to the loading sta tion and slipped, greater care is now exercised, 1t being understood and known that each animal must be ac- counted for. Those of the cattle in the herd being unreprcsented by owner or agent are sold and the money turned over to the rightful owner of the animal, through the commission. It is such protection as the cattlemen demands.

BENEFITS OF RECIPROCITY.


 The following article copied bodily from the Los Angeles Times is so neatly, so filled with food for rellec- tion that no excuse is necessary for copying it entire:
 Some interesting facts have come to the surface in a document published by the Bureau of Statistics, in relation to the trade of this and other parts of the world with the South American countries during the reciprocity pe- riod. The Bureau of Statistics which is. of course. part of the Democratic machine in charge of all the depart ments,and which President Cleveland, by his recent civil service order cX- poets to continue in charge of the ser vice indefinitely has just published table in which it shows that tle gain in our trade with the countries of America with which we had reciproc- fly treaties under the Mckinley law, was but - per cent. from 1890 to 1891. Curiousy. however. in the very same document, but under an entirely diff ferent head, 1t gives the exports from European countries to these same South American countries during q period of years. An examination Of these figures shows that in nearly every case the European countries lost trade with the countries with which we had reciprocity treaties during the very years in which we were gaining trade there.
 For instance. Germany's exports to the Spanish West Indies fell cif 70 per cent. from 1890 to 1891, those of Great Britain 90 per cent, those of France 60 per cent, those of Belgium 60 per cent. and those of Spain ' per cent. The exports of Great Britain to the British West Indies fell of 20 per cent. and those ol Hayti and san Do- mingo 35 per cent.
 The exports of Germany to the Cen tral American States from 1890 to 1891 fell of 25 per cent. and those Of France to Guatemala fell 66 per cent. in the same period. There was also a reduction in the exports Of Germany to Hayti and San Domingo, and in those of Spain to Porto Rico, as well as to Cuba.
 In brief, in almost every case the exports of European countries to those with which we had reciprocity trea- ties, fell off from 70 to 60 per cent while we were gaining steadily until the repeal Of the Mckinley law and the termination of the reciprocity treaties. Tn the very years in which we were gaining 22 per cent, the European countries, which had held the trade of that section of the world so long were losing from 70 Go 60 per cent.
 l Is any stronger proof needed of the ! wisdom of reciprocity and the dense unwisdom of its repeals

A GREAT WINTER RESORT.


 One os the great resources of Flori- da is the annual influx of northern visitors who seek that sunny cline to escape the rigors of the winters which lock their northern homes. To meet their requirements and to cater to their cultivated tastes great hotels, with all modern appointments and luxurious furnishings, have been erected at many of the most import ant points, and every winter those magnificent carayanseries. beside which would pale into inSignihcance the splendors of Aladin's magic palace are crowded with the aristocrats of the plutocracy Of the nineteenth cen tury. all on pleasure bent. Their wants are numerous, their eXpendi- tures princely, and in catering to the former the keen investors who have created the great caravanseries shell tcring them harvest the latter, to the swelling of the shekel heaps in their own cotfers.
 With an eye toall these things capi- tallsts from the north have noted that the great state of Sonora presents in- ducements for winter residence far superior to those possessed by Florida In Florida coincident with winter falls the rainy season, and the delight ful, dreary. langurous days are fre- quently dashed with the inconve- nience and annoyance of showers overheard and mud underfoot. ln Sonora the winter season is dry and delightful and the rainy season does come until long after the northern visitor has returned to bis home, which is released from the embrace of Jack Frost months before the rains begin to fall in this favored cline. So here are combined all the advantages of the Florida winter with none Of its ia coveniences and disadvantages. To draw here thousands of those seeking to escape the rigorS CT the northern winter accommodations such as Flcrlda grants are all that are necessary. The capital mentioned earlier in this arti- cle has grasped the points herein set forth. and is now about to engage in construction of a great carayansery at ! HermosillO which will rival the far famed Hotel Ponce de Leon of Flor ida where the aristocratOf the north will find a genial and ha9py winter re- sidencc. The advantages which will flow to Hermosillo and Sonora from erection of so great hostelry can hardly be enumerated in single arti- cle. The daily expenditures of those who will come during the winter months, will put into circulation a vast volume of money which, entering into all the avenues Of trade will re yiye and greatly enlarge the business of the state. But beyond that all will 1 be the investments the visitors will make. While there for pleasure the sujuurncrs from the north will note the many opportunities for investment offered in Sonora, will siege them and will profit by them all of which will add greatly to the material advance ment and prosperity of the great state of Sonora.

Fond OF Joking,

Among the numerous peculiar traits of
the German Emperor is fondness for
practical joking, which in his younger
days on more than one occasion got him
into trouble. Even since he has been
Emperor he has INDUCED this passion
more than once. On one occasion, about
a year after he had assembled the throne,
his right hand was seriously injured dur
ing the rough horse play that takes
place every st. Sylvester or New Years
eve i'll the streets of Berlin. On that
night no citizen ventures to appear upon
hat or even a derby" The students
have from time immemorial had a
sort of unwritten right to bonnet any
civilian thus arrayed by smashing his
hat with sharp blow of the fist upon
it's crown. The Kaiser, who had always
Joined in this form of sport before his
succession to the crown. ON the first
New Years eve that followed the death
of his lamented father walked out with
the collar of his coat we'll turned up
and fur cap drawn down over his eyes
so as to conceal his identity. He soon
had several badly wrecked hats to his
credit. He then encountered an elderly
citizen of portly figure and benevolent
demeanor. whose looks, however, belied
his character. He had been bonneted
in previous years, and was resolved to
teach his tormentOrs lesson. So he had
made a sort of leather skull cap, thick in
texture and studded with long, sharp
nails. So when the Emperor brought
down the fist with all his might on the
inoffensive looking tall hat his hand was
pierced in many places by the nails and
covered with blood. the injuries at one
time threatening lockjaw. The citizen
was arrested and imprisoned pending a
decision as to whether he should be
prosecuted on charge of 'lese males
Ie., He was, however, released, as his
offense was entirely an innocent one.

For months past it has been the business
of the Directors of this Company to arrange
for RELIABLE INSIDE INFORMATION
ON SUCH SECURITIES. So successful
have been their efforts that, were they at
liberty to disclose only half the knowledge
they possess more capital would be sub
scribed than they could possibly invest; but
such disclosures would defeat the objects
of the Company and prevent successful re-
suits.
THE LARGE FUND at the disposal of
the Company will be so carefully dissemin-
ated amongst various securities that profits
must be CONTINUAL AND CUMULATIVE.
Thus, instead of investing in one security
which might prove loss, subscribers ac-
qure an interest in a number of securities,
making individual loss almost an impossi-
bility; for if depreciation affects some in
vestments, the great majority will still
yield immense profits in which EVERY
SUBSCRIBER WILL SHARE.
Shares, in the majority Of cases, proves a
failure; the public being misled by innum-
cradle wildcat schemes and unprinciped

rectors propose to protect their clients,

ton and business knowledge, combined with

if properly conducted, will materially
strengthen its chances to win the

MOTHERS MEETING.

At the Mothers Meeting last Thurs
day afternoon, suggestive paper on
"Positive and Negative training" was
read and discussed. positive train
ing" says the writer, "endeavors to
build up and enlarge that which is
pure and good; it emphasizes virtue.
Negative training, on the other hand,
seeks to tear down and destroy that
which is impure::and evil, and empha-
sizes vice. Build up the positive side
of child's character and the negative
side will not need to be unbuilt. A
Kindergartiner of experience has said,
there are two words I would Danish
from the nursery if could; those are
naughty and don't. The number of
'don'ts' child receives daily would
discourage an older person, and can
not be other than serious to child.
One of the strong elements in positive
training is to believe in the child, to
believe good of.him."
These are but few of the many
practical thoughts culled from the ex-
cellent paper. An earnest discussion
followed the reading. These talks to
and by the mothers are very helpful
Mothers and teachers find it much to
their advantage to spend an hour or
more each month in these informal
conferences.

sade," successor to "The Mothers

Wood Allen, is highly recommended

Hitchcock, Supt. of Mothers Meetings

some poor invalid, "to be in his place

and digest it. .-
It's SO strange that such simple things
are overlooked by those who want
health.
Food makes health.

import is necessarily slow and labor

County government is nearer home
and we are better acquainted with it's
workings. Fraud is more easily de-
tected and wrongs righted.
It is generally conceded THAI the
salary of county officials is exorbitant
as compared with the income of farm,
store, shop or the wages of equally
competent clerks and agents represent
ing the professions. The Peoples
Party should declare in favor of sal
ary reduction to the extent of at least
rs per cent. and invite men without
reference to party utilization to CO.
operate INFRINGING it about. The
business of this proposition is granted
by all who are not Office holders nor
expect to be. If this work is taken
up in earnest and prosecuted with
vigor it will result in honest county
administration, less taxes, and will
deal blow to party idolatry which is
the greatest barrier to political reform.
Let nothing in this article be con-
strued to mean fusion. No true Pop
ulist can consent to trade or dicker
with the old party machine, but there
are hundreds of honest, earnest men
in the ranks of all parties who would
