 Sun Democrat: A steam laundry is
 necessity for Flagstaff and would
 bel valuable acquisition to our other
 business enterprises. Sending soiled linen out of the territory 10 have it washed may be all right in politics, but in an every day business sense it is nonsense. As business proposition steam laundry in Flagstaff would pay immense dividends.
 Jerome Reporter: About half past eight Monday evening as wagon with two or three persons in it was passing the residence of Vim Nicols in the Gulch, someone fired revolver. the ball passing through a coffee pot on
 the table and lodging in the opposite
 wall. Suspicion points strongly to certain parties who were thought to
 be sensible persons. The reckless dis charge of fire arms is serious offense and should not be tolerated.
 Arizona Republican: A few days ago J. ". Benham put a gopher into a box containing large rattlesnake, intend ing it for the snakes supper. The snake was not hungry aud accepted the TO- dent on terms of friendship. The latter slept on the coils of the snake and the situation was lovely until yesterday, when the gopher began experimenting upon the snakes rattles. Friendship ceased and the fangs of the snake were buried in the gopher's spine.
 Williams News There is no lon5er any doub4 that Williams will have another sawmlll, with larger capacity than the one destroyed by fire.

The mill will be of one hun dred thousand feet daily capacity. Then the same good old times before the fire will be with us. Williams is bound to come to the front.
 News: There is one man in Jerome who has an eye to business. Recently an order came from dealer of birds and animals of Wichita, Kas, for fifty dozen live quails. The laws of the ter ritory forbid the shipment of quail from Arizona, but nothing daunted, the young man addressed letter to Governor Franklin, and not getting q reply sent another to President Cleve- land for permission to ship the quail He took very particular pains to in- form the president that there would | be nothing out O. his the presidents pocket by granting the privilege. The legislature might be induced to modi- fy the law to suit this enterprising Jeromite.
