Ferns For the Window.

Wood ferns potted in the autumn in
the rich leaf mold where they grow
mixed with one-siXth finely sifted coal
ashes will thrive well through the win
ter months if kept in a cool window
and well watered. Under glass they
develop as we'll as in their native wood
land, sending up delicate new fronds
and growing in rank luxurance. Vel
vety moss, with its attendant partridge
and wintersreen berry vines, makes a
charming bed for these woodland ia
vortes and will well repay the gar
dener for transplanting.

"Nhy, Of course" said auntie. And

"What shall draw flrst?"
''Draw cow"
The COW was received with bursts of

by chicken, which received the same
doubtful compliment, the aunt said:
''If you make fun of my pictures, I
shall not draw any more"
Sobered at once, the young critic beg
ged for more.

Gov. Smith granted pardon Tuesday
to Joseph Hame, who has been serving an
Is years sentence at the state prison at
Windsor, having been convicted on the
charge OF rape in Orange county court in
June, 1893 The sentence was imposed
by the late Judge Thompson.
One of the last official acts of Gov.
Smith was the signing of conditional par
don for Frank Hakey OF SwantOD, who has
served over three years in states prison on
a 10 years sentence for alleged felonious
assault. In the minds of many, the lden-
LITIGATION might have been mistake, and
the sentence pronounced was considered
excessive by the bar in general Hakey
had previously horne a good reputation,
and was known 10 have been very much
intoxicated the day of the crime. Since
his incarceration his mother has kept his
three little children from going TO the poor
house, but advancing age and failing health
has made her about ready to give up the
charge.

The unity of Germany and the United
States, the one the most radical of the
Powers in dealing with Chinese questions
and the other the most conservative, has
apparent been achieved by China her
self. A second circular note has been is
sued by Germany TO which the United
States has today replied, cordially approx
ing the program outlined by Germany and
stating that Minister CCnger has already
beed instructed TO report as to whether the
persons named by the Chinese edicts for
punishment are the really guilty ones,
whether the penalties likely TO be inflicted
by China are adj quate TO the crimes COM
mitted and how II may be made snre that
these penalties are actually visited upon
the real criminals.
The substance of the second German
note to the Powers, called out by the evil
dence that China is willing 10 punish her
own criminals, and dealing with the ques-
tion OF such punishment, apparently aban-
dons the untensble ground that delivery of
the gully shall precrde peace negotiations.
In other words, the Berlin government is
disposed to allow China To iufct its own
punishment on is own subjects, requiring
only that the penalties be adequate and in
fl'cIed upon the really guilty persons. As
To whether China's Intentions in these par
ticuars are satisfactory, Germany proposes
TO make the Prkin diplomatic corps the
judge, and the opinions of the ministers is
also sought as to how the Powers may
best safeguard the inflicliOn o. such pun
ishment as to its adequacy and righteous
justice. Shan. II Al. kwan has been occu-
pied by the foreign troops, the feet accept

President Mitchell of the United Mine
Workers of America says that canvass
of the coal region of Pennsylvania shows
that 5000 men are at work and 1877, 900 on
a strike. Several of the mining companies
have offered the men an increase of ten
per cent in wages, but they still refuse to
go back to work, as there are other con-
ditions which they wished complied with,
particularly recognition of the union.
The final act of Gov. Smith before retir-
ing from office was one of clemency to a
convict. A few years ago Smith Davis of
Lincoln was convicted of manslaughter in
Addison county. He was sentenced to a
term of seven years confinement at hard
labor in the state prison at Windsor. Gov.
Smith some time ago issued pardon to
Davis releasing him on good behavior and
yesterday he changed this to full pardon.

Jim Bark's Return.

James Bark, one of the lead
ing cattlemen Of Maricopa coun-
ty, returned yesterday from an
extended visit to Washington
where he had gone in interest
of the settlers of this valley in
the forest reserve matter that
is now before the authorities at
Washington. Mr.. Bark when
seen by Gazette reporter yes
terday, spoke freely of his visit
to the national capital; he said
he did not meet Governor Muir
ply during his visit east, but
had several visits with Delegate
Wilson and Secretary Hitch
cock and Commissioner Herman,
who both listened attentively
when pleading for the farmers
protection from the free grazing
of sheep on the forest reserve.

The investigation being CON
Quoted by a house committee
into the conditions existing dur
ing the military control of af-
fairs at Wardner, show to what
extent this administration is
ready and willing to go to reim-
burse capital for its contribu-
tions during the last presiden-
tial campaign. The evidence
shows a treatment of working
men. against whom they posi-
lively had no evidence. that
would not be tolerated even in
Russia, the most autocratic gov
ernment on the globe. Men we're
arrested and thrown into the
bull pen, fed on bread and wa
ter, prodded with bayonets in
the hands of negro soldiers,
against whom no charges had
been preferred, and released
without ever knowing why, or
for what, they had been arrest
ed. Several were driven insane
by the treatment they received.
And these outrages against civil
liberty and human rights COM
mitted by the strong arm of the
military power of free America.
And to cap the climax, General
Merriam, who had charge of the
federal troops, sent a telegram
to President Mckinley advising
that all labor unions should be
broken up, and that a law be
enacted by congress making it
a crime to belong to labor
union. " Capital can combine tc
control the price of products and
wages of their employees with
impunity, but when the working
man seeks by combination to
maintain the price of his labor
at living standard. it should
be made a crime. And this is

an order granting permission to
the sheepmen to Craze 100000
sheep on the Black Mesa and
100000 on the San Francisco
mountain forest reserve, and an
unlimited number of these little
forest pests on the Grand Can
yon reserve. This is a peculiar
order. The assessment roll OF
Arizona, comprising twelve CO.
unties show that there are only
450, 900 head of sheep in the en-
tire territory. Yet, in the face
Of this fact, the citizens of Co
conino and Navajo counties ask
and receive permission to Craze
100000 head of sheep on the for
est reserve named above, and
an unlimited number in another
locality. To make this propo
sition more ridiculous it is a
fact that every county in the
territory has sheep on it's as
sessment rolls.
Mr.. Bark says that on April
next, the secretary of the inter
ior will appoint and send to Ari-
zona three wellknown scientists
who are familiar with the ques.
ton of forests and their infuen-
ce upon the water supply, and
these men will Immediately come
to Arizona to investigate this
sheep question in northern Ariz.
Ona.
The gentleman think that the
farmers and water consumers OF
the Salt and Gila valleys will
be justly dealt with by the pre-
sent administration, and in the
end sheep will be excluded from
all forest reserves in Arizona as
they are in California and New
Mexico today. Mr.. Bark says
that he learned while in Wash
ington that Mark Smith is one
of the most popular men that
have ever been elected to con
gress from Arizona, and has
been a useful and honest man
for Arizona at the capital of the
nation. This is a neat thing
for republican to say of ou1

minded man. Gazette.

It has been repeatedly charged

It has been repeatedly charged
and as often denied by those in
authority, that there is a secret
alliance between this country
and England. Notwithstanding
this denial, however, every move
made by the two governments
on the chess board of interna-
tional affairs shows complete
and thorough understanding be-
tween the two governments, and
stamps the denial of the parties
to the privy compact, as bald
faced liars of the most unscrup-
ulous character. The haste with
which Secretary Hay made the
offer of mediation in South Afri-
can affairs, is.the last and most
convincing proof of a secret al
lance. Secretary Hay and Mr..
Paunceforte had a consul ultatlon
Immediately after the receipt OF
a message from Kruger asking
the friendly interference OF the
United States, and the result
was that dispatch was at once
sent to Lord Salisbury tender
ing the good offices of the United
States in bringing about the ces-
sation of hostilities. This hasty
action was taken at the request
of Paunceforte and for the pur-
pose of forestalling and pre-
venting concerted action OF all
powers looking to the same end.
Actions speak louder than words
and it is a self-evident fact, that
this administration is treating
the American people with the
same deceit aud treachery it has
Porto Rico and the Philippine
Islands.

The political outlook in Ken

The political outlook in Ken
lucky is assuming a more peace
full aspect. That bloody war
was not precipitated in that
state, is alone due to the mode
ration and forbearance of the
leaders of the democratic party
under the most trying and exas-
perating circumstances. They
have kept within the bounds OF
the law from the first, while
their opponents have resorted
to the shotgun and revolution
ary method from the beginning
Bv their action, the democracy
of Kentucky have shown to the
rest of the nation, who are the
law hiding, decent and respect
able portion of the residents OF
that commonwealth. When the
we'll known readiness OF Ken.
tuckians to meet force with force
and fight it out on that line till
the "last armed foe expires
is taken into consideration, the
forbearance exhibited by then
is wonderful and has won the
admiration of every thoughtful

First, with rheumatism in the
shoulder, from which he suf-

days, which was relieved with
two applications of Pain Balm,
rubbing the parts afflicted and
realizing instant benefit and en-
tire relief in a very short time.
Second, in rheumatism in thigh

In Old Kentucky.

He was shot in old Kentucky,
where they make the mountain
dew, and the mothers feed the
babies on hot revolver stew,
where you wake up in the morn
ing shot full of bullet holes, and
find your sole companions are
disembodied souls.
He was shot in old Kentucky,
where their aim is always true,
and the principal amusement is
shooting people through, where
the doctors use as medicine, tor
all the human ills, a dose or two
of bullets instead of giving pills.
He was shot in old Kentucky,
where 'feuds grow on the trees,
and the bullets from the rifles
buzz through the air like bees,
where the instruments they play
on, when they give a dance or
hop, are their musical revolyers,
and they "call off" with a pop.
[ have heard that old Ken
lucky is a fine old common
wealth, that the women all are
noted for their beauty and their
health, but I'll stay in Indiana
where the women cut less figure,
and the men are not SO hasty
nor SO quick to pull the trigger.
