past :wo weeks. continuously, that MT. c. c. Dyer accuses me of having been instrumental in causing his dis charge as guard from the Territorial prison.
 Now, Mr. Editor, wish, through the columns of your paper, to deny this allegation in toto. I never in thought, word or deed had anything to do with MT. Dyer's discharge. I can state, however, for my own vindication, what I know in regard to it. The only person to blame for his discharge is MT. Dyer, solely, wholly and alone. The cause of his discharge was in toxication On the nights of the 3Oth and 3lst of March, MT. Dyer was in- toxicated while on duty. On the night of the 3lst of March, after the last lookup, about s o'clock p. m. Mfr. Dyer came to my stand and made this remark: "God, but I am fuller than . tick" I said, "Bro. Dyer, you had better go and take cold bath, it will cool you off and stTaighten you up. Then in case the Supt, comes in you will be all right" He said; "l believe will. If anyone asks for me tell them I am in the bath room. He went to the bath room three times that night to my knowledge. Sometime, MT Editor, between 10 ard T o'clock. . think it was, the superln -L0eu- came ts me and demanded the keys of he prison yard. I had not seen Nr. Dyer then for over an hour. 1 felt sorry for hims but asked myself what could l do? I had to give the keys to the superintendent, and he said: "Where is Dyer?" I said: "In the bath room." He went to the bath room but MT. Dyer was not there. When and how he found him is best known to the superintendent and Mr. Dyer alone.
 This, MT. Editor, is all I know ir regard to MT. Dyer's discharge. wish to say further that not one word of this have I mentioned before to anyone, and I wonld not if Mr Dyer had have let me alone. Only to pro- tect myself and remove the opprobium of having been the cause of a brother guards discharge, do I take this means of letting the citizens ot Yuma know the true cause of MT. Dyer's discharge If time and space would permit, MT Editor, could give great deal longer and clearer statement of this affair but enough said. I will state further more that I and I alone am responsi- ble for this article, and as I said before simply for my own vindication. 5. W. BAILEY.

TARIFF AND FARM ANIMALS.
A Free-Trade Policy Detrimental 10
the Cattle-Rafsing Interes<s OF
the United states.

In the course of thorough examina-
ton which he has been engaged in re-
garding the effects of free trade and
protection upon the farm animals in
dustry, Congressman Tongue, of Ore
gon, has developed some interesting and
impressive facts. 1t Is probable that
few OF the farmers Of the United States
realize the full extent of the loss and
damage suffered by them in conse-
quepce of the passage of the Wilson,
German free trade monstrosity In 1894.
Whenever the friends of protection
have urged It's Importance 10 the people
who raise live stock for the market, and
have pointed TO the large increase of inn
portations of cattle under the tariff law
of 1894. they have been met by the famil-
lar argument: 'But we are nation of
cattle exporters and of growers of food
for cattle, and the increased importa-
tons only permitted Us TO utilize our
corn and export Ii In the form of beef"
How fallacious and inconsistent this ar
gument Is can be gathered from the
statistics relating 10 imports and ex-
ports of cattle.
Under the last three years Of the Nc
Kinley law the United States imported
7.05s head of cattle and exported during
that period 1,040,707 head. Under the
last three years OF the Wilson-Gorman
law we imported coo. 5s4 head and ex-
ported 1.096,373 head. 1t Is seen that
during the last three years of the Nc
Kinley tariff our exports OF cattle ex-
ceeded our imports by i,033,73o, while
for the corresponding period of the VIII
Son-Gorman law the excess of exports
over imports was reduced TO SCOTS
head of cattle. IL Is not easy 20 figure
out wherein the American farmer was
the gamer by this operation In tariff
tinkering.
II appears, moreover, that under the
operation of the Mckinley law the num-
Der OF cattle in the United States in
creased 2,764, SAC head, while during the
Cleveland administration and under the
Wilson-Gorman law the cattle In the
United States decreased In number
6,746, 437 head. The relative difference
In the number and value of sheep during
the Harrison and Cleveland administra-
tons IL fully as great as that OF cattle.

row the awful blight inflicted upon
their industry by the Wilson-Gorman
tariff plague.
Congressman Tongues conclusions In
reference TO this interesting inveSthga-
tion are terse, pointed and convincing.
He says:
This shows that the freer importa-
tion of cattle under the Wilson bill dis
couruged the production of cattle In the
United States and resulted In an i'm
mense slaughter Of calves. Personally,
know tfhs 10 have been true in Oregon.
In fact, after the Wilson bill was fully
in effect very few calves were raised In
western Oregon. They were slaugh-
tered for veal. There was no demand
for them as live stock. Last fall there
was demand for every decent yearling
TO be driven to the ranges in the west"

ALMOST SECOND NATURE.
Cyclists Unconsciously Follow Rules
OF the Road when walking.

You can tell a bicycle rider by his
walk. Not because of a popularity of
gait, but for the reason that he uncon-
sciously follows the rules of the road
that he has learned while riding a BIZ
cycle.
On the sidewalks of the crowded
streets of New York and Brooklyn a
gentleman whose acquaintance among
bicycle riders is quite extensive has,
as matter OF curiosity. watched his
cycling friends walking TO and from
business. Almost without exception
they pass TO the right when meeting
other pedestrians, and TO the left when
passing them from behind. When
turning acorner the pedestrian who has
learned 10 cycle hugs the wall closely
IL going TO the right and Is almost
sure to make long turn If bound 10
the left.
II all pedestrians would observe the
rules Of the road on the sidewalks as
well as the experienced cyclists observe
them on the highways there would be
fewer toes trampled upon and fewer
persons nudged in the ribs by protrud-
ing ana sharp elbows.
There is nothing more annoying to
the participants and nothing more
laughable to the spectator than to see
two persons dancing up and down and
taking a series of side steps because
both started 10 pass each other in the
wrong direction.

people how best 10 keep out OF each
