There is little doubt but what the char acter of man may be judged from his associates. The character of an executive can in a measure be j1dged from the class of men he calls about him as ad- visors This is conspicuously illustrated by the present Governor, and his pre- decessor, aud their respective appointees. They are the opposite of each other. Governor McCord thus far in his appoint ments has chosen capable clean men, Of known integrity. Citizens who are high ly respected by their neigh bors, who eau be introduced into any family Tn the Ter ritory, as gentlemen of character. men who will honor the off ;es to which they are appointed, and offi:ials who by thelr presence will raise the dignity of official life in Ihe territory,
 Governor McCord, by making such ap' pointments, has placed a premium on character, good citizenship, and at the same time discounted political vagabJnd. age. and the class who lack integrity, so- briety, and moral as we'll as political fitness.
 What striking contrast to that of his predecessor. It brings the blush of shame to every true American to con- slider the character of many of the indi viduals he appointed to the most respon- sible offices in his gift, the salaries of which the people had to pay. Lndivid- uals. some of which were penniless po- ltical vagabonds, without a dollar of credit, not even in the gin mills where they had wasted their substance. In. dividuals who claimed this recognition as compensation for peri Try committed, false affi iavts filed, individuals who could not be admitted into self respect ing families, and who did not even com. mand the respect of the vicious class of Here was an illustration where the names of the very worst class in Arizona were taken from the vagabond list and placed on the salary list of the territory. Char acter, honesty, integrity and fitness was placed at discount. Vice, crime, prof. ligacy and the lowest and most nausea ting forms of dissipation placed at a premium, and to continue it's grasp on the throats of the people, the admlnls- tration of the territory resorted to the same means to retain power by which it secured it by false affidavits, perjuries, forgeries, and other felonies, thus sink ing territorial offi:ial life to that depth of infamy, which the foulest heart, or the most malignant mind could conceive or execute In fact it had sunk to the low est depths of the lowest deep, and then groaned in despair because it had com passed the limit of human hate.
 It's motto seemed to be "Destroy aud Pull Down." It was opposed to building up the character of individuals, or the territory or any of it's interests It's mis- sion seemed to be that of obstruction and destruction of bo,h the good name of citizens and the territory. It did it's part, and it did it we'll.
 Now comes a new era wherein charac ter, integrity, fitness and worth will count. The builder takes the chair of

dispatch TO The Free Press says further
inquiries regarding the large balloon
which was> seen passing in q northeast

three miles from Whitemouth. have
ELECTED the fact that that evening was
yemarkably calm and clear. Farmer
Henderson was standing at the door OF
his barn and was taking glance around
the sky when he saw large object sail
Ing slowly across the horizon. Gradu.
ally he made out the car, when he saw a
large sail swing into view. Astonish-
ment held him spellbound, and again and
again the ghost-like sail swung and
jibbed full in view, Showing its enormous
proportions, then slowly drifted out of
sight In the twilight. Henderson. on re-
turning to his house, consulted a news
paper having picture Of Andree's bal
loon and declares the airslip he saw is of
che same character. The balloon was

DONKEY, DOG AND GOAT.

The Three Great Sights Of . Transconti-
mental Journey.
"The three oldest things, that saw
outside Of New York." said New
Yorker who had gone overland to Den
YER and returned by water by way Of
Galveston. "were q donkey, q dog and
q goat The donkey was the motive
power Of the single bobtail car that
goes up the hill on South Broadway,
Denver. He was an amusing fellow.
After ! made my first trip up that steep
ductor unhitch the donkey and put him
aboard the Car. The dashboard was fit
ted up an a sort Of stall, and he stood
there sideways when the car started
back down the hill under its own i'm
petus. The donkey's face took on de-
lighted expression as he found himself
in the role Of passenger. He really
seemed to be grinning at the conductor
and the passengers.
II saw the dog as was about to en-
ter the Taber Opera House in Denver.
The dog was called Bill, and he was
part of the outfit Of cigar store in the
opera house building. He was black
spaniel. He was rigged up in Zouave
trousers and jacket trimmed with gold
braid, had tasseled fez on his head
and spectacles ON his nose. The oldest
thing about him was that he sat on his
launches, with his paws in the air,
actually smoking a cigarette like con-
frmed cigarette fiend. l found that he
had been trained to smoke the cigarettes
while the audience was going into the
theater as an advertisement Of his own
er's business. That was the first time
! had ever seen dog smoking.
II made the acquaintance of the goat
in tobacco factory in Key West. There
were 900 Cuban girls there, nearly all
Of them pretty and all of them smokers
or chewers of tobacco. The goat was
their particular pet. He was the biggest
goat ever saw, almost as large as a
Shetland pony, with big branching
horns, and perfectly tame. He playfully
butted the girls or pranced around
among them. His best trick, however,
was the larceny Of their dinner baskets.
He used to go nosing around until he
found particularly choice luncheon.
He would knock over the basket, seize
the lunch, and dash outdoors with it.
No amount of chastisement had ever
broken him Of the trick. OF course ]
saw wonderful scenery in the journey,
but the donkey and the dog and the
goat were by long odds the most inter-
esting living things that encountered. I"

A Clever LAWYER.

An old lawyer in Paris had instruct
ed very young client Of his to weeI
every time he struck the desk with his
hand. Unfortunately the barrister for
got and struck the desk at the wrong
moment. The client fell to sobbing and
crying.
"What is the matter with youY'
asked the presiding judge.
"Well, he told mo to cry as often az
he struck the table,"
Here was nice predicament, but
the astute lawyer was equal to the oc-
oasion. Addressing the jury, he said:

York Yacht club. beginning today at
Glen Cove, the place Of rendezvous, will
be the most Imposing one as a spectacle,
and the most interesting one from a
sporting standpoint that this famous
organization has ever enjoyed. Today's
races Will be particularly interesting by
reason OF the value Of the prizes offered
by Vice Commodore Ledyard. and be-
cause Of the array OF crack boats that
will start In the races. In the schooner
class the famous two-stickers Colonia
and Emerald will have new rival for
speed honors-the new schooner Hide
garde. built for George w. Weld of Bos-
ton. IL will be her maiden race. and the
result Will be watched with interest.

washington, Aug. e.-The state de.
partment received many protests from
foreign governments regarding the
Dingley tariff bill. These we're complied
by Congressman Johnson of North Da-
kota and published In The Congressional
Record.
Some OF these protests have been made
public, others have been referred To the
committee Of congress having the tariff
bill I'm charge, and Little or no attention
has been paid to them.
Nearly all these communications re-
vert TO the commerce between the sew
eral countries and the United States.
They insist that the new tariff will re-
tard that commerce. and some Of them
intimate that 1t will result in decreasing
the demand for American goods. Some
suggestions are made that the injury to
account of the imposition OF the pro-
posed duties will be considerable.
Minister Brum OF Denmark called at
tention to the fact that the tartn on
American goods going into Denmark
was very favorable. and said that the ad-
mission Of Danish products ton favor
able tariff would only be q fair return.
There were three communications from
Baron Fava, the italian ambassador.
The first protested against the duty on
italian oranges and lemons. which, iss
said, would prove very disastrous to the
Italian trade in these fruits. A second
communication was against the present
duty on candied fruits, which the manu-
facturers of Leghorn declared would de-
stroy their market in the United States.
In third communication Baron Fava
spoke Of a letter of the secretary Of ag-
riculture, In which he referred to a min
isterial decree OF Italy relating to meats
from the United States This decree
required a consulate wise. for certificates
OF origin issued by American authorities
and accompanying shipments Of meats.
Count Lichtervelde, minister of Bel
gium. sent three communications con-
cerning the tariff. One referred to the
retroactive clause adopted by the house,
/. and pointed out that 1t worked great
hardship upon those who were shipping
articles which could notlbe safely trans
mitted in the winter, such as plants and
bulbs.
The other communications referred to
the rates on cement and sprats and sar-
dimes. The discontinuance of expor-
tation Of Belgian cement, 1t was urged,
would result disastpusly to grain ex-
ported from the United States on account
OF the higher rates that would be
charged, because vessels would have to
sail one way in ballast
The Turkish government protested
against the duty Of 81 per pound on
crude opium.
j. p. Pleda, minister from Switzer-
land. said that the tariff would be dis
astrous to three principal industries Of
Switzerland-Swiss embroidered goods,
silks, watches and clocks.
Sir Julian Pauncefote sent two very
brief communications, one in December,
1896, Informing Mr.. Olney that the fish
cry board of Scotland protested against
the high rate on cured herrings, and that
at the request of the Marquis Of Sails
bury he represented to the United States
government that the high rates which
the Dipgley bill imposes on salt mackerel
and other cured fish would cause grave
injury toithe fishermen on the west coast
of Ireland. This note Is dated June 13,

could escape it. A naturalist tells of an
exciting chase no saw between a swal-
low and dragon fly, which is among
tho swiftest of insects, the latter finally
escaping.
