FoG In PhotoEraphy.

One serious and at the same time un- suspected source of fog in photography Is often due to the fact that the black ing has slightly worn of the leus mount and there is a reflection which results in a loss of hrilliancy in the negative Constant use and endless cleaning of the lens in time wear the blacking of, and this should be attend ed to and all metal parts kept well blacked. Where lenses are mounted in aluminium still more care is necessary in this respect, as, wherever iu such cases the blacking wears of. white light instead of yellow light is reflected into the lens
 Sometimes diAphragms of the iris pattern are greatly at fault in this re- spect By reason of its construction the leaves or vaRes in this diaphrsgnI are in constant friction while being set, and thus become polished and reflective, for which reason some photographers avoid having iris diaphragms in their lenses, notwithstanding their convenience. A careful examination of the apparatus will insure safety in this matter. Stops of the ordinary pattern become in time little better than bare Betal, especially at she edges of the aperture.

TAKES A REASONABLE VIEW.

The FrAnkforter Zeitung makes the following very interesting com meut on the Coghlan incident:
 We have repeatedly pointed out that the irritation of the Americans was chiefly caused by the sending of a strong German squadron to Manila at the beginning of the war, for if only protection 10 the Germans there had been in view. 8 single ves- sel would have sufficed. Besides this, there is no doubt about it, the German ships were very of6cious at the beginning of hostilities."
 The paper refers to a recent con firmation of the statement that the German cruiser Irene threatened to lombard the Filipinos who were al- lied with the Americans when they were about to attack the Spanisrds at Subig Bay, but as soon as the American warships Raleigh and Con- cord appeared of the place, and sent few bombs into the town, the Irene steamed away. It continues: "It is not to be wondered at that the Americans regarded this as siding with the Spaniards, and that when Admiral von Diedrichs, the German commander, complained about some thing to Admiral Dewey, the latter burst out with his ridiculous threat. All symptoms prove that the com manders at Manila at the beginning of the war did not act on their own initiative, but one may almost be certain that instructions did not proceed from the foreign office
 Obviously the Zeitung means it to be inferred that they proceeded from Emperor Billy" himself.

Good Resolutions, Like Eggs, Un' less Matched Into Action, Will

To meet the demands of conserva- tive thinking people who can plainly see the future of this lovely city, Kilroy's New Palestine will build twenty brick cottages on lots 50xl30 sample cottages to be seen on Third avenue, corner Grant street, inside property-which can be rented or purchased lat about $700 each) on the instsllment plan, monthly pay ments. To families living m any other part of Arizona, the United States or Canada, that have investi- gated the merits of the Salt River valley this offers something hereto fore unknown in this country, viz, that they can invest in one of these lovely homes, paying for it monthly, say S or g per month. If they are not ready to come to Phoenix at once the New Palestine will take charge of their interest, renting the same for at least $l0 per month, thus max ing their tenant pay the installment (monthly) and taxes, in other words they, the purchaser, (while not living in Phoenix) will be securing a lovely home in reality free of charge. of which they can avail themselves later on, either by selling or holding Hundreds of letters from thinking people in the United States and Can ada warrant us in adopting this plan.

Vacant lots, 50x130, are still offered at S65 to 800 each, monthly instsllments S to $10. without in terest.

A Memento Of caIoocan.

At the Worlds Fair there was ex- hibited from Tennessee two bullets which had met each other in midair, and also 6 muzzle-losding Spring field rife, into the barrel of which a rebel buttet had found it's way. This remarkable circumstance was duplicated at the battle of Caloocan, an insurgent bullet having passed the whole interior length of rife in the hands of Private Stuteville, of the Abilene company, in the Twen- tieth Kansas. Stuteville had just fired his piece and still had it at bis shoulder, when the insurgeut bullet passed in at its muzzle. The bullet proceeded the hole length of the barrel, breaking the breech lock and forcing the empty cartridge shell into the upper part of its chamber. General Otis heard of the occur renee and sent for the rife, which he intends to send to the war depart ment as a curio.

PERSONAL vs. PARTY POLITICS.

Our contemporary, the Pheniz Re publican, says:
 1t is charged by the Herald, the JOURNAL MINER of Prescott, and by individuals in this town, that she re. fusal of the Republican to support J. D. Monihon for mayor IS due to personal reasons. The charge IS un- true"
 In support of the above allegation the Republican produces an article published in January last against the Republican nominee for mayor of Phenix and then adds:
 This article was written with full knowledge of MT. Monihon's amoi- tion. The writer decided then and tLere that he would not support Monihon if he should be nominated for mayor. Subsequent articles, written before the nominating con- ven.ion was held, attest to the con sistency of the Republicans present attitude. The republicans who in sisted upon Monihon's nomination had full knowledge of the Republi- cans position. They have no cause for complaint now. The Republi- can has done exactly what it said it would do."
 The article in question then goes on to show why it took that position against NIT. Monihon, in which 1t proves very clearly that the charge or JOURNAL-MESER, Herald and in dividuals ID Phenix is true to the letter. In addition to the personal reasons for opposition to him the last paragraph above quoted shows very conclusively that tha editor of the Republican is attempting to play the role of boss of the party, and that no man will rec tive its support except such as it dictates the nom- ination of.
 The JOURNAL MINER has no inter est in the municipal election in Phe- nix except the interest taken in the success of the republican party wherever party lines are drawn and the individual republican, or repub- lican paper that assists in the defeat of a republican nominee even in a precinct election, gives just that much aid and comfort to the opposi- ton and approximately weakens his own party. An exception to the above rule of course would be a case where a man notoriously corrupt, dishonest or unfit for the office might receive the nomination. 4 personal acquaintance with NIT. Monihon of sixteen years convinces us that no such reasons as the above can be produced against him by any one as Sn-excuse for not supporting him.
 Republicans having a personal grievance against him were abund- aatly justified in trying to defeat his nomination, but when nominated. except as in a case mentioned above, it is the duty of every man who takes an interest in party success to rally to his support.
