We often hear of men being unable to let go of a live el5ceric light wire, but instances of office holders being unable to return to private life through the failure of the appointing power to name their successors are so few as to be noteworthy. Arizona has a case of this kind. MT B. B. Els liuwood, who was appointed United States district attorney by Pres ident Cleveland, and whose term expired months ago, wants to retire. He has asked repeatedly to be relieved, For some reason not known in Arizona MT. Ell limwood still holds the office He as serts, with pardonable glee, that he can't get rid of his job. MT.

BETTER COUNT THE COST.

It is more than probable that Count Goluchowsky, the Austrian minister who wants to organize a war against the United States, has not sufficiently studied tIhe facts relating to trade between Europe and Amer ica. An analysis of that trade might result in change of some of bis opinions.
 The Atlanta Constitution in nptic- ing the Austrian's purpose presents some figures that are interesting. Fer instance, the Consultation says:
 In 1896 Europe bought in the Unit ed States $140.O00.O0O worth of bread stuffs and $130.000,0 900 worth of meats and other food products. Why was this done? Need anybody ask the question? It answers itself. These Am5rican products were needed to feed the people of those countries, and they were bought where they could be got to the greatest advan- tage Tn the same way Europe bought $63, 3,O00,000 of petroleum, and $19,OO0,0OO of cotton seed oil, and $28, 1000 of tobacco, and $30, 900 of timber, slaves and other wood, all in the United States.
 In round numbers the purchases oi the United States from Europe annu- ally amount to about $400, 900, ,000; our exports to Europe from $500, ,000 to $7O0,000,O00 Suppose the foreign combine were formed and should stop purchasing our products, where would the people of Europe get the bread stuffs and meat and cotton they now get from us? If American competi- ton were withdrawn, where would prices go for the limited European and Asiatic products? Would they mol become so high that millions in Flu rope would go hungry and scantily clothed?
 We buy luxuries, chiefly, from Eu rope; from us Europe chiefly buy necessaries How would the com bine compensate the manufacturer; of Europe for the less of the $4O0, 900, i 900 worth of exports to the Uni,es States? We should certainly reta i ate and stop our European purchases
 It will be seen, therefore, that tn, distinguished Austrian count Is al lowing sentiment to get away witl his reason and to obscure the facts U the case. Europe would nave tn losing end, and when higher price and scantier supplies and idle fac
  arise such storm of popular indigna tion against the various government in the combine, as would shake tn cabinets and thrones of the old world It looks as if the thoughtless c-un were playing with fire. America ha become a commercial necessity t Europe.

Notwithstanding the many fine dresses and the piano which she couldn't play and the big wax dolls that could cry, that poor old Cassius M.

A ANGEROUs PEST.
Another Enemy Of the Potato Plant that Causes
Farmers Much Uneasiness

Auburn, July ia pest which bids
fair to be more dangerous than the
potato bug has been found in Andres
coggin county. and is causing the
farmers much apprehension.
1t is n worm about on inch long with
mud colored body. For a short dis
lance at either end it resembles a cater
pillar, but between ends it has no
marks.
When released from it's nest it axes
leg bail, running away from it's dis
turbers at a rapid pace. Diligent in
quiry elicits no definite information as
to it's species.
The worm enters the stalk of the po-
tatoe plant just above the surface of
the ground, making a round hole about
half as large as an ordinary pea. The
aperture. extends into the branches.
The first indication of the insects
presence is the whiting of the leaves.

TURKEYS |: PERIL r
Powers Will Stand No More
Nonsense from the Sultan.
Their Latest Note Tells Him What
and What Not to Do.
4 Warning from Russia that Refusal Nay
Mean Turkeys Destruction.

COnstantinople, July 1.-The cOllec-
tive note Of the Powers. demanding a
cessation of the obstruction of the
peace negotiations, which was pre-
sented by the ambassadors to the
Turkish government, Saturday, Is
couched in the most severe terms.
It insists that the frontier between
Greece and Turkey be traced by the
military attaches OF the embassies OF
the Powers and emphasizes the unani-
nous determination of the Powers to
secure a prompt conclusion Of peace.
The note, however, does not fix the
date within which settlement of the
questions in dispute must be affected,
and as it does not mention the steps 1t
is proposed to take in the event OF
Turkey not yielding to the wishes OF
the Powers, there is great doubt as to
whether the note will have the desired
effect.
