Adulteration of Tea.

Apropos of the present agitation started by Japanese against their own cheap tea, we find the following state ment mate by James R. Davies, ex-tea- inspector for the port of New York:
 Making tea green does not improve the flavor. it is rather the other way. Of course Prussian Blue and such adul- terations are absolutely poisonous.

Dr. Smith whom Colin Cameron wants to import from Missouri to fill the office of veterinary surgeon of Ari- zona, is rabid republican, and so wrote Governor Hughes some months ago. The legislature very wisely. however. passed law prohibiting the import ing republicans from other states to fill offices in this territory, and the gentleman from Missouri will probably fail to pocket any of the taxpayers money of Arizona.
