ton Of one or more friendly powers.
THD OFFER OF GOOD OFFICES.
Article 3. Independently of Il recourse
TO such amicable means, the signatories
deem il eXpedent that one or more
powers not concerned in the conflict
should offer, of its or their own initia-
tive. and, so far as circumstances will

diation to the States at variance. The

ing of bitterness between States at

tive of uninvolved powers, are exciu-
sively OF the character of friendly

cept by virtue of convention 10 the
contrary. of interruDting or retarding

parations for war. If mediation inter-
venes after the opening Of hostilities It

The Question Solved .

Up 10 about three months ago, the great question which confronted the miners. aud every one else of Arj- zona, was what shall be done with the ores Of this section, much of which carry too small a percentage of gold silver and copper to enable the producer to pay the heavy freight rates on these ores. to the various foreign smelters outside of the territory, thus prohibiting the handling of ores, carrying as high as seven to eIght per cent copper, and some smal! values in silver and gold.
 This question has at last been solved by the erection of an sde- quste custom smelter with the latest modern improvements, equaled by but few in the United States, and surpassed by none in the world, with in twenty miles of Prescott.
 The Val Verde Copper company IS 10 be commended for the steps they have taken in the erection of this smelter. Many people would have hesitated to have invested from two hundred to three hundred thousand dollars in an enterprise of this kind. in a section in which de parture of this kind. on a large scale, had not yet been made.
 The erection of this smelter means that we shall be enabled to keep within our boundries the large sums of money, which hitherto we have been compelled to send out of the territory; it means that We shall be able to treat ores which We could not otherwise have handled at all. and lastly, 1t means that those who have delved into the depths of the earth will soon be turning the re- suits of their labor into cash; the cash thus distributed will be the re- suit of increasing the production of ore in Arizona, and placing 1t where 1t belongs, in the foremost rank of mining sections for the production of gold, silver and copper ores in the United States.
 Indirectly this rebounds to the very material credit of Prescott, to which point much of the money thus expended will come.

AS TO gRYAN's POSITION.

An spologist for NIT. Bryan's anu- expansion doctrine says that his position regarding the PhilPP has been frequently missiated by nis opponeuts. His own words upon the subject are as follows. No, | don't favor the withdrawal of cur troops. What I do believe. and have repeatedly announced, is, we should at once declare our purpose an uu- eouivocal terms, so positive that tle Filipinos cannot doubt ii, jo EEaut full and complete iudePendence ihe moment theS have established a st.ble government. | believe, lt we should make such annOuneeTeui right now, war would cease in 8 very short time, and our troops could withdraw without laying down taeiT arms in the facs of the enemy Fur thermore, I belieye if we had come out with such a statement an the beginning. the war would never have occurred" Is it possible that neither Mir. Bryan or his apologlsts are aware of the fact that by the conditions of the treaty of peace, the Philippines became a part ot the United States. That treaty Of peace was ratified by the United States senate, and the appropr- ation for carrying out its pro visions was made by congress. In view of these facts, We would re- spectfully ask NIT. Bryan, his apolo- gists and the whole horde of anti expansionists, who has the power iu the government of the United States to declare in uneq qaivocal terms that absolute independence shall he granted to the Filipinosi II any one connected with the government is possessed of this power, he has equal powers to grant independence to Alaska CT any other section ot the United States. The fact Is the anti eYpansionists have no foundation Tor their position, and the only true, loyal and patriotic stand 10 make tc uphold the flag there, encourage .he administration in it, efforts to suppress the insurrect.on until sIch time as congress says we do not want these islands. and legisla'es tA. 1T in- dependence to them.

As a rule, when hens have suitable food they don't eat their own eggs To preserve eegs from beiag eaten un- der exceptional conditions there are numblr of devices There is. for in- stance, a nest with a bottom of woven wire with mesh big enough to let an egg through. The egg goes through the thin layer of hay with which the nest Is lined and through the wide meshed bottom Co fall safely in a bed of hay un dernealh
 Another device is automatic aud set m operation by the chicken itself wbea it steps oa the nest. Thus relieved of the chickens weight, the nest tilts up enough Co roll the egg off into place of safety made for its reception.
