A DROP OF DEW

See how the orient dew,
Shed from the bosom of the morn
Into the blowing roses,
(Yet careless of its mansion new,
For the clear regio, There twas born)
Round in itself encloses
And, in it's little globes extent.
Frames. as 1t can, its native element.
How it the purple flower does slight,
Scarce touching where 1t lies;
But gazing back upon the skies,
Shines with a mournful light,
Like it's own tear
Because 10 long divided from the sphere
Restless it rolls, and insecure:
Trembling lest'it grow impure;
TIL the warm sun pities its pain,
And to the skies exhales 1t back again.
So the soul, that drop, that ray.
OF the clear fountain Of eternal day,
Could it within the human flower be SEEM
Remembering still its former height,
Shuns the sweet leaves, and blossoms
green,
And, recollecting. its own light.
Does In its pure and circlng thoughts ex-
The greater heaven in a heaven less.
In how coy a figure wound,
Every way 1t turns away,
So the world excluding round.
Yet receiving in the day.
Dark beneath. but bright above,
Here disdaining. there in love.
How loose and easy hence to go:
How girt and ready to ascend;
Moving but on point below,
II all about does upward bend.
Such did the mama S sacred dew distill,
White and entire. although CONCEALED ana
CONCEALED on earth; but does. d1ssolvins.
Into the slories Of the almighty sun

The talk about changes in the board of
there was the usual crop of rumors yes
terday. 1t is not known authoritatively
whether Councilman Grider will carry
out the threat that if any legal proceed
bers of the board would be ousted by the
council and a new board appointed. The
suit has been brought in the superior
court and as the council meets Monday
this question will soon be settled.
But now another question has arisen
The mayor is the chairman Of the board
Of health and he cannot De removed by
the council. This being the case, it was
stated yesterday that should the council
proceed to extreme measures, and oust
the present members of the board, be-
cause they will not discharge their own
employees, and fill their places with the
councils appointees, the mayor will re-
fuse to recognize the new appointeas
and decline to call the board together for
organization. This state of affairs, it is
claimed, could be continued indefinitely
and that, too, without the city suffering
to any great extent. Health officer Pow
ers is charter officer, and he could con-
tinue to perform his duties and draw his
salary, while the clerk Mr.. Reed who
appears to be acceptable to both sides
would remain in the office and keep up
the records. OF course all sanitary 10
spection by the board OF health would
cease for the time being, but in cases of
nuisanceS they could be reDorted to the
police authorities, and if not abated the
offending parties could be arrested and
prosecuted.
But it is claimed that the matter will
never reach this extreme point, and that
= compromise may yet be arranged. The
action of the Medical association in sus-
tanning the position of the present health
board has had wonderfully modifying

Want No Sewers

Property owners have filed a protest
to the city council against the proposed
sewer district on Boyle Heights, COM
mencing at State street and Michigan
avenue. thence west to Lopez street and
south to Pennsylvania avenue. 1t is al
legged that the sanitary condition of the
district is highly satisfactory. which
renders the improvement unnecessary,
besides which the people are not now
financially able to make the improve
ment.

oranges are exhibited from the ranch

year 25 boxes of selected oranges, and
culled boxes, making 30 in all.
The citrus tariff committee yesterday
received a telegram from Washington
announcing the fact that Senator j. c.
Burrows of Michigan had been placed on
the finance committee. Senator Bur-
rows is a strong friend of California, and
will work for the interests of the state.

Must Unmask Before Midnight

The council committee on public NOR
ais will introduce an ordinance Monday
prohibiting masking after II o'clock on
the night of the Fiesta given up to the
maskers. 1t is probable that two ordi-
nances will be presented, but the one
above noted is likely to be adopted. Mr..
Hutchison of the Eighth ward will present
an ordinance absolutely prohibiting all
masking. He is already on record in IA
vor of such prohibition, and it is be-
lieved he will make another fight to have
his ordinance adopted.

Protest Against a Sidewalk

Property owners have filed protest
to the council against the construction
of cement sidewalk on the north side
OF Eighth street, between Spring and
Pearl streets, on the ground that it is
not needed, as there is good sidewalk
on the south side of the street, and be-
sides. owing to the stringency of the
money market, the people are in no con-
dition to make the Improvement.

John Kroeger has filed a protest
against the widening of New Main

1t will cause him an actual loss by the
destruction of his fences, etc, besides
taking a considerable quantity of his

LABOR DAY.
Proclamation bv the Governor
 Requesting Its Observance.
TERRITORY OF ARIZONA,
 EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.

EXECUTIVE pEFARTMEYT.S
 The laws of the United States desig- nate the first Monday in September oi each year ss a legal holiday to be known ss Lator Day.
 When We reflect that labor is the foundation and creator Of ell wealth that upon il depends all happiness and all excellence; that 1t is labor that builds up great States and car | ries on the commerce Of the world, the wisdom of this enactment is ap- parent, and especially is It 90 when l applied to the peopls of our territory who are laboring to develop its various resources and establish for themselves happy homes. Our busy and indus trious com nun ties contain but few drones, hence nearly all can be right fully classed ss laborers-the me- chsnic, the merohInt, the miner, the lawyer, the farmer, the divine, the banker, the physician, the teacher and the clerk, az well as he who per- forms ihe more severe task ci daily l manual labor, are laborers in the best [ sense Of the word, for while many earn their daily bread by the sweat Of their face and others by the work oi their braiu, they are all tollers.
 A general observance O. the day so wisely set apart by Congress will tend 10 promote 8 higher appreciation oi the dignity of labor and the great part it is taking in the building up Of onr Territory and the grea. Republic Of which we hope soon to become a State. To bring labor of all kinds into closer relations with itself and with other interests, to inculcate a friendly feel ing and hearty cooperation between labor and capital, thus encouraging good will between all classes of the community with view to pleasant and reciprocal relations. is the great object of this observance of Labor Day.
 Now. therefore, I, Myron II. Me Cord, Governor of Arizona, do pro- claim and declare Monday, the 9th day Of September, 1897, a legal holi- day, and do most earnestly recem- mend thst all business of whatever nature, except such as the necessi,ies of the community require 10 be car ried on, be suspended on that day, that all who desire may have an op- portuni.y to observe the day in a manner bcfttipg the importance oi the occasion.
 Let us not forget that Labor Day is as important and to future genera tions will become as suggestive and inspiring as the religious and patriotic holidays that our people so Loyalty and reliRiously observe.
