 Prescott JenrnaLMiner: Steve Thorne of the Santa Maria, is in town on business. He gives his section a good name in it's mining outlook and believes the district is going to boom this summer.

The ore was encoun- *tered in tunnel driven in the vein, lat distance of a l25 feet from the mouth.

Malicious Prosecution.

Citizens for many miles around wert
Mortified last week to hear that Darwin
Stocking had been arrested upon the
complaint Of his hired man, one Tony
Nichols, or Nicholas, by the Humane
Society Of Wellington for inhuman treat
ment of one Of his horses, 1t being
charged that he had Over-heated the
animal until it had fallen to the ground
when he cut the animals tongue off,
pounded it with stone, prOdded il
with a pitchfOrk, besides forcing earth
down the animal s throat and up its
nOstrils.
Now the facts of the case set forth
by Mr.. Stocking are that he was drag.
ging wheat ground when one Of his
horses fell, but not from being over.
heated. Not knowing what else to do,
yet feeling that something should be
done, he bled the horse very slightly in
the roof Of the mouth, very common
practice among hOrsemen. At the same
time he called Nichols, who was plOw
ing near by, to come to him. The man
came as requested and after discussin G
the situation and probable ailment of
the horse for short time he flew into a
wild pagoxysm of rage, charging Stock
ing with killing the animal and sayin 6
he ought to be prosecuted. Stocking
answered: Probably you had better do
it." With an oath Nichols said he
would, and leaving the team he had
been plOwing with hitched to the plOw
in the furrow, he started for Wellington
where he made complaint against Mr..
Stocking. An officer came out but re-
fused to take Mr.. Stocking into custody,
simply making arrangements when and
where he should meet the authorities.
When the proper time came Mr.. Stock
ing drove to Wellington, driving the
same animal he was charged to have so
lately maltreated. After making a
thorough examination Of the horse, Mr..
Stocking was completely exonOrated from
all blame and discharged. Unfortunate
ly this man Nichols, or Nicholas, has a
terrible and vicious temper. On previ-
Gus occasion he took a club to an en-
plOyer (Mr. will Ledyard), breaking
one of his fingers. He had threatened
Mr.. Stocking some time before this, if
report is true, saying with on oath,
backed up with clinched fist shook in
Stockings face, &c you, I'll fix
you" Whether the matter is ended or
not remains to be seen later on. New

NJ. Maurice Gallia, the French envoy
to the United States in the interest of
the American national permanent ex-
hibition in Paris, is also the unofficial
herald of the Paris exposition of 1900.
NJ. Gallia was on the staff of the late
Maj. Moses P. Handy, special commits
sioner to the exposition wher Maj.
Handy was in France.
M. Gallia came to the United States
in January as the preventative of ten
of the most important newspapers of
Paris, among them the Journal des De-
bats, lie Gaulois, L Echo de Paris, l.
Eclair, etc.
Maj. Handy described NJ. Gallia as
remarkable man, who possesses
American smartness, French politeness,
German patience and Viennese
heart" M. Gallia is less of a journalist
than business man. There are few
men whose commercial experience has
been so comprehensive. 1t is this broad
experience which has qualified him for
the work with which he has been in
trusted.
Although of French ancestry, NJ. Gal
liza was born in Vienna, Austria.
Twenty-Five years ago he left his home,
as he says, ito study languages and to
see the world" He remained nine
months in Hamburg, learning some
thing Of the export trade. From Ham
burg he went to London, where he en-

propriate remarks.
William Clayton Rogers was born in
StrOngsville, CuyahOga county, NOvem-
ber II, 1S4S, and lacked only few
months of being SO years old. His par
ents moved to 0berlin when he was IA
years old. His father engaged in busi-
ness while his son was educated in the
schools, graduated in 0berlin college in
1873, and completing theological
course in AndOver in 1877. He preached
at Dwight, ILL.,, two years at which place g
he was ordained, when his health failed
and he located in Cleveland, where in
company with his father he was engaged
in a manufacturing business for nine
Years, and afterwards at Fremont for
three years. During the past six years
he has been pastor of the Congregational
church at Brecksville, Ohio.
In 1877 Mr.. Rogers was married to
Miss Minerva Reed, sister Of Rev. Arthur

vile, where he had become greatly be-
loved by the people.

7 the plan, and said that while it was a
matter for private enterprise rather
than for governmental supervision he
could give the scheme his personal in
dorsement and would do anything in
his power to further it. Secretary Bliss
also indorsed the plan.
NJ. Gallia had visited the French min
lister of commerce, NJ. Buche, before
leaving Paris, and had laid before him
the advisability of removing the pres
ent embargo from the entrance Of
American meats now prohibited on ac-
count of the existence of the Texas
fever among American cattle many
years ago. The French minister prom
ised to do all in his power to extend
reciprocity between France and the
United States.
The organization which M. Gallia,
seeks to establish will consist of 12
directors in this country and an equal
number abroad, six vice presidents,
two secretaries and treasurer. The
president will be chosen from among.

TWO OPEN LETTERS.

The Following Letters Received by the

Mrs. H. W. Hall, Wellington, O.
Dear Mrs. ,Hall:--Concerning the box
which your society sent us, / would say
that everything was very nice and accept
able. We are now well supplied with
linen, and our chief need is fruit, eggs,
etc. You know the soldiers allowance
from the government for ratiOns is not
very great. We have had so many men
sick unto death, and have lost many that
we felt we might have saved had we been
given their care sooner. However, we
are glad to have been able to do as much
as we have. Can you imagine process
sion of six or eight ambulances, each con-
tanning four sick men, and all the care
and anxiety that results from the bring
ing Of so many sick? Soon, the great
park will Sseem almost deserted, yet the
real end may not be here for some time.
Let me thank you again, one and all
Tor your kindness. Ifyou care to do any
thing more for us, it will be very CRATE
fully received. Yours very sincerely,
l.. May Bushey

tered the famous house of Bradford,
Sichel g. Co., firm which does business
throughout the world. He remained
with this company for three years, Wis
lting Russia, India, Brazil and Aus
tralia in their interests, constantly
widening his knowledge of commerce
and the commercial relations existing
between nations,
At the end of three years NJ. Gallia
was sent to Paris as the general agent
Of the London house. After a time,
having gained thorough mastery Of
this department of business, M. Gallia
entered the oldest store in Paris, Petit
St. Thomas, where he became as
thoroughly master Of the retail trade
as he had become Of the wholesale. He
then established himself as a trader
and broker, transacting business in
Rio de Janeiro, Central America, Eu-
rope and India. While living in Paris
he always entertained the representa-
tives of American houses who visited
the capital of France.
Later NJ. Gallia became interested in
the firm of A. Roederer & Co., of Riems,
one of the greatest champagne houses
In the world. He travelled extensively
In the interests of this firm, visiting the
United States and other countries.
On leaving Roederer M. Gallia de-
voted himself to pushing the brand of
champagne which bore his name. He
became one of the principal wine mer-
chants of Riems. Baron Hirscb. the
multi-millionaire banker, of Vienna,
was M. Gallia's friend and hacker.
When Baron Hirsch died Gallia retired
from the champagne trade, leaving his
interests to the Roederers. He then
became connected with the principal
newspapers Of Paris. For them he Wis
tied various countries. inspecting
mines, inventions and railroads, and
promoting the commercial interests Of
France throughout the world.
M. Gallia saw the president twice IN
Washington and laid his plan fully. be-
fore him. Mr.. Kasson, Of the state de-
partment, who has the reciprocity ne
gotiations directly In charge, was also
seen by M. Gallia, who In the course Of
conversation suggested the feasibility
Of making the American exhibit in
1900 the basis Of permanent CONNER
cial exhibit which should be kept up to
date from time to time by American
manufacturers, and which would serve
e sort Of international srcAaAgs. NJ.

the government should appoint Maj.
Handy's successor at the earliest pos
slble moment. There is, he says, o
ready market for American goods
throughout the world, and 1t is to the
interest of business men In this country
that there should be good showing In
Paris. NJ. Gallia urges the immediate
appropriation Of an adequate sum to
secure representation in keeping with
the immense resources Of the United
States. Two millions of dollars at least
Is required for this purpose. America
Is now the only country without o spec
ial commissioner in Paris for this pur-
pose. The two men most prominently
named for this important post at pres
ent are Ferdinand Peck, Of Chicago.
and s. 7. Everett, Of Cleveland.
M. Gallia has found a most cordial
welcome in America and Is we'll salts
fed with the result of his visit, which
has had but one unpleasant incident.
Owing to a mistake he was sub
jected to a thorough searching Of his
effects, while stopping at the Waldorf
few weeks ago, the supposition being
that Ne was Spanish spy. 1t is need
less to say that no discriminating docu-
ments were found, and that upon learn
ing the identity of the distinguished
citizen Of France sincere apologies were
Immediately rendered. M. Gallia's
tact was shown upon this occasion.
Had he cabled to Paris of the indignity
to which he had been subjected II
might, at q time so critical, have
changed the tone Of the entire Parisian
press.

Why have the millions from other
lands lOnged for home on our shores,
is question that is often asked. Ger
tainly the theories advanced by demo-
cratic statesmen, that cheap goods and
cheap living are what the people want
and what has attracted them to our
shores, are not correct. In England,
Ireland, Italy, Hungary, Poland, in fact,
all Europe, things possessed by these un-
fortunate ones are cheap indeed so
cheap that labOr's share even gives them
but small possessions of the scanty fare
provided for the masses, In the United
States these same people begin to look
for the best the country affords the best
homes, the best machinery, the best i'm
2rOvements Of all kinds, and hence the
best employment. The happiness of a
people, therefore, does not arise from
their having everything cheap.

1t is an old saying that the democratic c
party are constantly making mistakes
No better proof Of this saying can be
found than the fact that nearly every
democratic state convention this year
has endorsed the Chicago platform and
the candidacy OF VIM. ]. Bryan in 1900.
1t will require more than the wisdom of
any living democrat today to forecast
what the national issues will be in 1900.
A great colonial policy, the result of the
present war with Spain, may change
party issues, SO that silver, the Chicago
