of the measure. The probate judge ship is now lucrative office, when the service required of the incumbent is considered. The circuit court bill proposes to make them clerks of the court with the same compensation as district court clerks receive, and they are to receive also tho fees they are now drawing as clerks of the probate courts, and S100 each additional as county school perintendents. In ss small county as Gila it is easily seen that the new county clerk would re- ceive S2000 or more per year for his services, and in first class counties the clerks office would be even more pro- fitable than that of circuit judge.
 In no direction has there been even & pretense Ut reducing costs, but rather every opportunity and incentive is offered for footing the counties, and it Is safe proposition that should circuit conrts be established, the cost of ad- ministeriug justice in Arizona would be increased one huff.
 Are the tax payers of the territory willing to be thus bled without hope of any benefit resulting therefrom?
 We think not:
 And before members of the lcgisla- ture vote to fasten such monstrous evil upon the territory, they should consider well the interests of their con stituents, and especially those whose money oils the wheels of government in Arizona.

In 1885 the legislature created county courts in the counties of Pima, Cochise, Apache and Mohave. The other counties were wiser and refused to have them, Alonzo Bailey, council man from Gila, being the first to demand exemption for his county. County courts proved to be such an expensive luxury that the Fourteenth legislature, in 1887, was quick to repeal them.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF GOLD.

The government of Japan has an
nounced that the gold standard will
be adopted in that country in October
next at the ratio of 32k to L. Japan
is the most progressive of the Orien-
tai lands says the Kansas City Star,
leading commercial and business ma
ton, having dealings with the entire
civilized world and, therefore, desir-
Gus of employing the worlds stand
ard This matter of standard is set
thing itself. The great nations of the
world, including the United States,
have fixed on gold and the minor ma
tions will follow. The example of
Japan will be followed by the other
Oriental countries which have any ex-
tended relations. The world is COM
ing together, as it were, and some day
and not distant day-will have a
common standard-gold.
This is to be brought about
universally of the standard by
Congresses, international or other
wlse-but by natural sentiment OF
mankind. Man knew the value of
gold as soon as he knew anything.
He selected it from the other metals
as most precious. His great work in
the world has been the search for and
accumulation of gold. As he has adj
vanced in his knowledge of the earth
on which he lives, and in that of the
arts and sciences, he has become an
expert in the art of finding gold and
treating gold ore, and making money
out of gold. just now more gold is
being found and mined and put in
circulation than ever before in the
history of mankind and of mining. In
South Africa, at Cripple Creek, in
! Alaska, in all the old and new gold
fields of the world they are taking
out gold in such quantities as King
Solomon never dreamed of. They
are taking pay gold from ores that
were once cast out and trodden under
foot. Gold can be had everywhere in
the world that there is any consider
able circulation of money of any sort
There is gold to-day and there will be
more gold tomorrow and more the
day after. Every year sees many
millions of gold coin added to the
worlds supply. Gold is not merel.

solid and durable roadbed on a clay

two years ago and thus far affords a
dry, solid, and apparently durable
roadbed. For years the practice hnd
been, annually and as often ms rains
and large amount of travel rendered
the road muddy and uneven, to haul
on crushed stone and keep the surface
fairly smooth and even. Two years
ngo the surface was covered with
crushed stone three or four inches
deep. and thoroughly pressed down
with the steam roller. On top of this
screened stone and coarse gravel was
placed two inches deep and rolled.

an inch or more in depth when rolled,
gave hard and even surface. The

CROSS SECTION OF DRAIN.

temporary work is done, SO, by the
time the annual round of repairs is
gone through with, the money np-
propriated is so far exhausted that
an outlay for permanent improve
ments is not warranted; whereas II
n competent commissioner had the
roads in charge, certain portions of
the worst places which now call for
annual repairs should be permanent
ly made over, even If it takes higher
appropriation yearly for few years.
Take, for instance. a stretch of road
where the soil is springy, or for any
cause the drainage is imperefect. No
permanent improvements can be made
in such places without proper drain
age is effected.
To do this adequately open ditch
four feet or more wide and three and
half to four feet deep in the center
of the travel. Fill this with rough
stones, placing the first ones thrown
in SO as to form an open drain; fill
in the stone till within n foot of the
top, using the smallest stones for the
top; If crusher is in use the coarser
of these, which is best. then cover with
evergreen boughs or straw and finish
with gravel. The idea is shown in Fig.
i. The important thing is that these
drains always lead to and end at an
open culvert. This is an effectual
remedy for "honey pots" or slough
holes when the frost is leaving the
ground in spring.

The best road construction requires
right material. The three principal
things are stones, gravel and clay.
Each town where suitable stones are
plenty should own one or more stone
crushers. Crushed stone forms the
very best material for the foundation
of good road. Gravel is next in inn
portance, and clay can be profitably
used on sand. and in some instances
sand on clay formation.
The lack of proper drainage in the
roadbed is the cause of q large part
of the poor roads in the country. Good
drainage of the roadbed is as impor-
tant as the use of good material. A
substratum constantly gorged with
water from hidden springs can never
be depended upon to build on and
afford dry and solid road. The first
essential is to get rid Of the water on
the surface and below it.
The right policy of road improve
ment contemplates more or less per
manent improvements upon town and
county roads each year. The fault

KEEPING UP CALVES.
Indoor SUNNI erinG After June Has
Great Advantages.

lnuOOf sum" efinE After June Has
Great Advantage.
The practice of keeping calves housed
the first summer of their lives is be-
coming more and more general each
year among progressive dairymen and
beef raisers. Those who are endeavor-
ing to find profit in either of those
branches of stock raising are finding
cut that protection from heat, flies and
dried pasture is about the cheapest and
most effective plan to adopt. No doubt
one principal reason why more calves
are not housed, says Farmers Advo-
cate, is that it would involve certain
amount of regular labor in the shape
of chores" which so many object to in
the summer season; but unless we take
n lively, practical and self-sacrificing
interest in our business in these times
we cannot hope to rench the goal of
greater profits in our business. The
wide-awake and enterprising competi-
tors who do things because they should
be done and not draw the line at a
point where an undertaking adds to or
takes from little Of present personal
comfort, are the ones that wear the
hopeful expression to-day and declare
that the times are mending. There is
no question in the minds of those who
have tried both plans but that indoor
summering has great advantages over
pasturing after the third weak In .Jums-.
So far as turning the calves out few
weeks on the fresh pasture before the
heat and flies become harmful is con-
cerned, there can be no greater disad-
vantage, provided the calves are not
less than six or seven weeks old and
the pasture is abundant and of good
quality. Perfect liberty at this time,
along with fresh grass or clover, skim
milk, and lick of oat chop, oil cake,
or the like, will start the youngsters in
the way to be profitable feed consum-
ers. So long as these favorable condi.
tions exist in the pasture lot there Is
no advantage in making changes, but
when the time comes that cool, dark
stable and mown clover or oats and
! tnres would give the calves grea ter
comfort, just Mt that time should such
conditions be administered. This is
more particularly applicable to calves
that are to become beefers, because we
want to sell for money some time in
the future every pound of gain our
feed has made and not allow any of it
to be lost after being once beneath the
skin. With dairy calves rapid develop
