s As Yukon gold goes up, silver runs down.
 Bryan should take a rest until the Alaska gold fever subsidies.
 McCord is swinging the ax, and away goes General Wilson's era nium.
 There are great many free silver advocates m Yavapai, but just the same the Yukon gold fever is work them up.
 It is sad that the president looks tired and worn. No wonder after his recent tussel with the anti-Mc- Cord senators.
 Denver people are all worked up over their water monoply combine. In Prescott it is the reverse. We can't combine on this liquid.
 Nearly all the Franklin guards have laid down their arms. A short time ago when McCords confrma- ton was hanging fire, they were right on the scrap.
 The name Klondyke is of Indian origin and means much fish, re- ferring especially to salmon. 1t can now take on wider piscatorial scope, and also include suckers.
 Prescott is all right in so far as plum picking goes. Akers is there, Tritle and Sloan ditto, while Nor rison is about to drop on the U. S. attorney limb, and the receivership is also due to come along. We are in it, sure.
 A Kansas widow with farm, a medical education and a musical voice, wants husband. Here is a queer matrimonial combination to experiment with.
 A young lady attempted to enter the dining room of an Albuquerque hotel wearing bloomers, and was refused admittance, She should have hung them up on the hat rack.
 The Old Hoss of the Herald is giving the new administration a pretty good starter. considering that he was a high kicker and a hard bucker before McCord came under the wire.
 The Albuquerque Citizen voices the sentiment of a great big majori- ty of New Mexico people when it says that the appointment of Judge A. l.. Morrison, of Santa Fe, to the position of collector of internal revenue is a deserved recognition of one of the best men in the territory
 We regret to state that there are some more office seekers lingering around Prescott, hoping to be rec. ognized by MeCord in territorial appointments. Sc far we have got the federal persimmon from Me Kinley and that's enough. Don bother the governor, boys. It's too PheniXy, to want the earth.
 The Copper Queen company, of Bisbee, have purchased the famous Narcasori mines in Sonora. These mines will be reYerently recalled in memory as those old ex-GOvernor Zulick figured in, and where with a "Winchester for bride" he stood of his busted miners, until he was welded to Arizona as it's executive. He played the same game on Ari- zona later, and is now said to be en route to the Yukon.
 The startling news comes from Phenix that General Wilson will re- turn in few days to reside again in the town he knew so well in days gone. With his arrival at the depot. a carriage will be in waiting to con- Vey the once vigorous form that is now weak and feeble back to the old hearthstone If the general should pass in his checks. a mouu- ment should be erected to his mem Ory, and the inscription should be, : Murdered by Phenix Politicians. !"
 Secretary Akers shut up shop in PheniI and boarded the inaugural train that brought brand new ex- scutiVe into Arizona yesterday. It was such an unusual occurrence to see the heads of both high offices in Prescott at the same time that considerable comment was indulged in of favorable nature. Under the closing administration the prin- cipal commodity extended the noun tain city in the pines in the line of official courtesy was a big plate of soup.
 The big coal strike is not only spreading, but it is likewise threat sning other commercial channels. On one hand the laboring miner fights for his dally bread, and on the other the cold and insincere operator wants cinch on the mill ions he sees ahead through oppres- sion and starvation of the common. The miner will lose in the long run, just the same as his fellow laborers have in other channels, but as time wears away and with each succeed ing clash between the weak and the strong, what will the outcome be.
