THE retiring administration, in the last few days of it's existence, has cast more infamy and shame over the people ot the United States than did Buchanan's reign. General FiIzhugh Lee, Consul-G-neral to Havana, has been so handicapped in the discharge of his duty by Secretary Olney and President Cleveland that he cabled his resignation. Of course he was not allowed to resign and show of com plying with his just demands that the State department back him up in his peremptory request of the Spanish government to release all American prisoners confined in Cuba was made Julio Sanguilly's release was the direct outcome of Lees action in rendering his resignation. To correspondents in Havana Lee has told of his deep dis gust of the un-Amrrican policy pur- sued by Cleveland and Olney and threatened to go Lefnre the United States Senate and explain the true state of affairs in Cuba. Cleveland and Olney are in office no more--after today-for which let every American be thankful.

THE Circuit court idea is great folly. It is aimed to give liugants a better opportunity to liligare. That is ils only superiority over the present District courts. Its objectionable features far outweigh this one cousid- eraiion, and it's entailment of au enormous expense on the already debt Overburdened counties and the Territory IS argument enough in itself to defeat the measure. Circuit courts are a necessity in thickly settled com muni,ies, but in sparsely settled and undeveloped Arizona the District courts must suffice. There is no deny ing the fact that the establishment of Circuit courts will greatly benefit the legal fraternity, but as much as Ari- zona might wish to become their bene- factor, she can not do so. ArizOna's frs, duty is to the taxpayers. although in past years they have received very little attention.

FOR the first time in its history the New Mexican Legislature is a letlered body. That is. every member in il can read and write-some. The Gov. ernor of New Mexico should immedi- ately on the adjournment of this wonder issue a proclamation designat- ing particular day when his people might gather together and offer up thanks for their emancipation from darkness and ignorance. On second thought, it might be best to have this thanksgiving before the adjournment of the Legislature.

Dangers of the Grip.

The greatest danger from la grippe is of it's resulting in pneum"nis. If reasonable care is used, however, and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy taken. all danger will be avoided. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy for Ia grippe. we have yet to learn of single case having result ed in pneumonia, which shows concln- sively that this remedy is certain preventative of that dread disease. It will effect permanent cure in less time than any other treatment. The Brannen's Drug Store.

BEFORE the adjournment of the Leg islaimre. might it not be well for it to consider the feasibility of creating the office of County Judge, aboIishing the office of Probate Judge and giving the County Judge jurisdiction in civil and criminal casesp There would be no more expense attached to this change than under the present system. The County Judge could hold court al stated terms throughout lhe year and this would supply the ''long felt want" that lhe supporters of the Circuit court idea allegeAo exist

WHEN a woman of 45 summers and as many winters essays to ride a "bike" something is bound to "drap". The widow of the late Editor Abell of the Baltimore Sun attempted to ride one and "drapped" so frequently that her instructor. a young fellow of 2S, was continually engaged during the taking of the lessons in picking her up and sitting her on the machine. $" gently and kindly did he do all this that Widow Abeil, 45 and rich as Croe- sus, fell ''in love" with the instruct ,l' and married him.

During the boom in raisins in Cali fnrnia-1SS9 92-every ranchman who owned sufficient acreage erected immense differs, ranging in cost from $l0,000 to $l00,000 dollars. In 1893 the bottom fell out of the raisin bu' ness and hundreds of well-to-do ranch CTS were hopeiess'y ruined. They were unable to sell their crop of dried grapes at even the cost of culti- vati0n and harvest, and the many who had invested their all in grapevines aud fruit driers could see mol hing hut bankruptcy staring them in the face. A number of these costly differs were consumed in ..accidental" fires about this time, all heavily insured of course, and the differs have continued to dis appear at interval ever since. The ranchers feel that good times are com- ing for California and that they took no small part in bringing it about.
