Senator Chandier Calls on Republicans to Rejoice Over the Prospects
 of Bimetallism.

BosroN. Sept. 12.--Senator William F Chandler. of New Hampshire, has oiyen the following letter to the Assos ciated Press:
 nI appeal to all Republicans to meet with joyous enthusiasm the first step England may take toward bimetallism. The movement earnestly and zealously begun by President Mckinley, in obe- dience to the St. Louis platform, was quickly joined by the French Ministry, and the joint proposals are being care fully ard seriously considered by the British Cabinet, with prospect that England will reopen her Indian hints will use silver us part of her bank re- serve, and otherwise cordially aid in re- monetization.
 "Eyery such indication should arouse friendly feelings in the United States, four-ffths of whose people, as well as nine-tenths of the people of India, de- sire the bimetallic system; which so much depends upon England's help. This is no time for discriminating du- ties or denuneiatory demonstrations against any European country, nor should bankers alone assume to voice the sentiment. entrest bimetallists everywhere to make themselves heard against the selfish outeries Of the en- gorged money-lenders of New York and Chicago and their subservient newspapers.

The United States Court.
From the Globe Silver Belt

From the Globe Silver Belt.
 By the decision of the Supreme Court Judges the Federal Court of the Second Judicial District is to be removed from Solomonville to Florence It can not be justly claimed that by their action in this matter the Supreme Court has consulted the interests Of either the United States government or the people of this judicial district. It may be reasonably presumed that Judge Dosn knew the sentiment of the people If the district, since his recent visit to Globe and the Gila valley, Graham county, was for the purpose, largely, of ascertaining the wishes of the people of the district. more than three-fourths of whom opposed the return of thu court to Florence for valid reasons, which should have prevailed with the. judges.
 The records of the Federal Court the past several years will show that not  one case in twelve originated in Final county, and that very large majority represented offenses committed on the San Carlos reservation or near Globe in which Indians were concerned. 1. There would be just as much sense am justice in removing the United Stata court from Phoenix to Yuma as therl is in locating the court for this district at Florence. The very same reasoning would apply, namely, that the court would be nearer the penitentiary. Flor. ence and Pinal county are dead. and the U. s. Court will not be able to gal vanize them into an appearance of life.
 Globe, as the center of the judicial district, is entitled to the court, which should have been located here when the district was first organized. For tunately, we do not need it and can view the matter with indifference. Ma homet, who is just now posing with so much pretension, will before long humb- ly come to the mountain.

DRESSING TABLE NECESSITIES.
Various Articles for Making a Lady,s
 Toilet.


 Toilet.
 A sensible girl will not keep lot of cosmetics and drugs on her toilet table, but there are a few articles she should always have in convenient place. She should have an array of glass stoppered bottles containing alcohol, camphor, glycerine or vaseline, alum, borax and ammonia.
 A little camphor and water should be used as a wash for the mouth and throat if the breath is not sweet.
 Powdered alum applied to fever sore will prevent it from becoming uh- slightly or noticeable.
 Insect stings or eruptions on the skin are relieved by alcohol.
 A few grains of alum in tepid water will relieve those whose hands perspire freely. A few drops of sulphuric acid in water are also beneficial for this pur- pose, as we'll as desirable for washing the feet when they perspire freely. In addition to soap for bathing, white castle should be kept for washing the hair. Occasionally a little borax or ammonia may be used for this purpose, but care should be taken in their appli- cation, as they are rather harsh in their effects.
 4 little fresh cold cream should be kept on the toilet table during the cold weather, and applied to the lips and hands every night if the skin seems at all rough or chapped.-N. Y. Sun.

TIE TRIBUNE does not consider it good journalism to follow the example of the Silver Belt and proclaim to the world that on account of the closing down of the mines at Globe that camp is "dead beyond redemption, and that nothing will be able to galvanize it in- to life." We believe the graveyard appearance of Globe is only temporary, and that with the completion of the railroad which is contemplated it will
 be almost as good town as Florence.

True philanthropy in this world does not consist in the giving of aims nor in the uprearing of temples. It can be narrowed down to one thing giving a fair compensation to the greatest number of laborers. Wealth is only held in trust for the common wealth, and the man who most equit- ably divides it among honest toilers, in return for their labor, is the man who does the greatest good in the world.

Superintendent John Whyte, of the Black Warrior, temporarialy in charge of the Continental during the absence of Superintendent N. L. Amster, re- ports an important strike of ore in the 250 foot level, the deepest working of the Continental. Nine feet of solid sulphide ore, assaying from 7 to 1216 per cent. has been encountered, which tends to confirm the opinion expressed in these columns that the Continental would, when developed, prove to be one of the greatest copper mines in Globe district.-IGlobe Silver Belt.

The Judges of the Supreme Court met last Saturday in Phoenix and deeid- ed upon the removal of the U. 5. Court from SoIomonville to Florence. This action was forseen when JuGge Doan was appointed, and while we believe that mistake was made in moving it from Graham county, and know that better satisfaction was given the peo- pie, at large, of the district with it To- cated here, and while this county went to considerable expense in erecting rooms, etc, for it's accommodation, yet we will not follow the example set by the Florence TRIBUNE and villify the Judge who was responsible for the re- moval. If any change was goiag to be made, however, in the interest of the people of the district, it should have went to Globe.

THE Phoenix Herald sizes up the mining situation in this Territory as follows: "The mining interests of the Territory are going to bring in more money this fall than all other interests combined. The fact is Arizona has a quiet little mining boom on right now, and has had all summer. The hunt for promising mining property is in cessant and searching"

TIE Mining and Scientific Press has the following very interesting article on the recent and continued decline in silver, which we reproduce:
 Regarding the present slump in sil- yer, it would seem as trough forces in the worlds economy were at work that initiate against implicit dependence on past conditions. For hundl l'ed years it had been, till the past six months, noticed that wheat and silver rose and fell together. Now while the metal drops the grain advances in price i; from time immemorial China was a purchaser-the Orient an absorbant of silver-now is presented for the first time in human history the spectacle of China being seller instead of buyer just what effect these things will have on the party aspect of political affairs in this country is question which it is neither the province nor the purpose of this journal to discuss. Existing com mercial conditions are memorable in showing that in the case of silver it is not 80 much question of over-produc- tion as want of consumption.
 "The case with silver and gold in 
 the last thirty-five years has been that the production of both has increased in volume, and the production in the case of each has been at less expense in hours of mans toii. The ratio of increase has been larger in the case of silver than in that of gold, and the ratio of decrease in the cost of mining silver has been less than in the cost of mining gold. At the same time the demand for gold has not been greatly disturbed, while that for silver is much less than used to be the case. At the beginning of the period under survey all the hints of the world, except that of England, were open to the coming of silver. Now the hints of nearly all civilized nations are closed to the coinage of this metal except in limited amounts and on government account. With gold it is different. In spite of the increased output and cheaper cost of production, the demand has greatly increased. All the great commercial nations of the world, both on the part of their governments and of private persons, have been greatly increasing their holdings of gold. Nations like Austria and Russia, where gold was almost unknown, have been accumulat- ing this metal and are still doing so.
 "In silver producing camps, as else where, the cost of everything is being materially lessened-mining, milling, smelting freights, living expenses, ma chinery, and supplies of all kinds. Looking at the matter in it's broadest view, the nation as whole is better off to-day than one or two years ago. With very few exceptions that silver producing mines yield lead as well, which sells to-day for better prices than year ago, with probability of keep ing up to the present figure, and every thing will necessarily tend to adjust themselves to existing conditions"
