The last story told of Lii Hung Charg is good one. As it runs. great dinner was given by the French ambassador in PekIn, and old Iii was one of his guests The party included the wives of the European guests, and when dinner was announced the host stepped up to Lii Hung Chang and politely said, twill it please your excellency to take my wife in to dinner? Lii Hung Chang is mat erof-fact old pagan. Fortunately the ambassadors wife was very tiny wo- man, So old Lii picked her up bodily un. der his arm and marched straight to the dining room to the horror and amaze. ment ot the guests and the utter dismay of the host.-Ex.

The impression has gained ground that the scene of the bloody work of Ahvote, the Piute. who murdered five men last week, is laid in Mohave county. Such is not a fact The Flutes are resi- dents of Utah, Nevada and Califor- mia. There is no danger in the least from the Indians as a whole. Once Tn while red devil fills up on fire water and imagines his mis- sion on earth is to slay all whites in reach. Mohave county Indians are peaceable and law-abidir g and have been so for years.

Myron H. McCord, governor; Charles H. Ackers, secretary. Ma jor Mckinley in making these ap- pointments did a good days work. McCord is true blue to his friends and is interested in the welfare of Arizona. Charles Ackers is an old time Arizonan and will make one of the best secretaries the territory has ever had.

The need of good roads in Mo- have county outclasses every other consideration and our road over seer and supervisors should spare no effort to give the main travelled roads good, even grades. In sandy spots corduroy of brush will ob- viate heavy pulls and the small pitches can be remedied by filling the washes with big boulders and allowing the heavy summer rains to level up with gravel and debris. Corduroy is the solution of the problem of maintaining mountain roads. North of Kingman thou sands of tons of freight is annually hauled over the roads. If the roads to outlying camps had a small amount of work done on them Kingman would get the trade and it would also be the means of build ing up outlying districts.

Matthew Marshall, the financial writer of the New York Sun, has figured out the gold problem to his own satisfaction. He says that enough gold is produced in the United States to permit of an ex- port of 20,O00,00O$ annually. But Mr. Marshall does not say what the consequences will be when ex- ports reach S0,OO0,O00$. Another thing MT, Marshall does not take into consideration is the interest of American secureties held by for eigners, payable in gold amounting to an annual export of 125, 1000, O,0O0$. Mir. Marshall is indeed an able financier when he can figure out a profit in a loss of 100000, ,000$. Should the full amount of interest on American secureties, payable in gold, and held In foreign countries, be called in it would bankrupt this nation, dispite Mr. Marshall's fig ures, It is just such men as Mar shall who have been predicting revival of business under a gold standard, but people are becoming sore-eyed looking for a return of prosperity.

We believe that Major Mckinley

We believe that Major Mckinley is the most thoroughly American president this country has had in more than twenty years and we be- lieve he will carry out every meas ure he deems for the benefit of the whole country. He is unquestion- ably in sympathy with the effort to restore silver to the prestige of other days. If the conference fails we believe he will recommend ac- tiOn by our own congress.
