4 Cultivated Taste.

The taste for olive oil, like the taste for the olive itself, must be cultivated and while there are many cooks who make no use whatever of this oil, there are others who depend largely upon it for frying purposes and for the French salad dressing which nothing is more acceptable for the green things which go to make up our summer salads. The oil which runs spontaneously from the pulp of the olives, called virgin oil, is the best and least cOlored, and is ready for i'm mediate use, says the Pittsburg Dis patch. The oil which is obtained by the press is more or less turbid and slightly colored, and has to be stored for some time to deposit its impuri- ties and become clear. Olive oil differs much in appearance and qual- ity, according to its chemical compo- sitiOn. Some is colOrless like water, and very liquid; other qualities are yellOwish, greenish to green, and more or less thick.
 For the nations around the Medi- terranean, olive oil has, since prehis- toric times, been the principal culi- nary fat, as well as food; it was burned in their lamps and illuminated the shrines of their saints, as it does those of the Russians of the present day. It may not be amiss to state just here that among the ancient Greeks, barbarOus as was their code of war, it was considered an unpar- dOnable Offense to cut down the olive trees in an enemy's country, and the simple word deudrotomein, the feller of trees, conveyed in their apprehen- sion, the idea of the most barbarous forms of Boston Her

HARD LINES.
How Poor Man Goeth Through the
 World.

Man, that is born of his parents is of few days and full of microbes. He goeth to school when a youngster, and gets the seat of his pants paddled for something he did not do, until he is sick at heart. He groweth up like a weed in a back yard, and soon reach eth the age when he is composed largely of feet, freckles and appetite for pie. About the time he gets too long for short trousers and not tall enough for long ones, he goeth away to college and learneth how to mon key on a three dollar mandolin and play whisky poker. He cometh home bigger fool than ever and marrieth sweet young thing whose pa is sup posed to be wealthy, but whom he subsequently, ascertaineth couldn't buy a prize rooster at a public inn. He worryeth along from year to year gradually acquiring offsprings until his house resembles a Sunday school class just before Christmas. He fret teth through the day and lieth awake at night trying to figure out how to keep his dependent population out of the poor house; his efforts were re- warded by having his daughters run and get married and bring home a nice son-in-law every day to feast at his board. His sons grow up and call him governor, and set him back for five every day or two. About the time he has acquired enough lucre to quarrel over, he contracteth a bad cold and is hurried away before he has time to talk to his family. His sons blow in his estate on bad whis- ky and plug hats, and his wife puts the finishing touches on his career by marrying the hired man.-Exchange.

Locomotives at the Paris Fairs.

Reviewing the locomotive exhibit at Paris as a whole, think the points which strike one most forcibly are:
 1. The enormous preponderance of compound type of engines over the simple high pressure type.
 2. The comparative scarcity of ec- centricities in design.
 3. The immense increase in size and weight of locomotives since the last exhibition.
 4. The especially huge size and power of certain Russian engines.
 }. The almost universal employ ment of coupled wheels in express en- zines, and the consequent all but complete disappearance of the single driver type.
 6. The large augmentation of heat ing surface and of steam pressure.
 These were the points which struck me most in my general survey of the exhibition. On the whole, they re- present the principle of development in locomotive practice. They tend in the direction of increased haulage power, rather than that of any at tempted addition to existing possibili- ties in respect of maximum speeds Charles Rous-Marten, in The Engi- neering Magazine for September

Foot Ball

There promises to be an exciting and interesting game of foot ball next Sunday, September 23d, between two local teams. The game will be played on the old base ball grounds just back of the electric light plant. Every one who is interested in foot ball should go to see the game, which will be called promptly at 2 o'clock. Pres colt should have first class foot ball team to hold its honors on the gridiron as it did some three years ago. It looks as though foot ball and all kinds of athletic sports were sadly on the wane in this city and something should be done to start it once more, so everybody turn out and see Sun days game. Ladies are cordially in vited to attend as it will be a good, clean game, devoid of all abusive lan- guage.
 The following is the lineup for the two sides, and positions that they will play.

 This republic rests not upon force, not upon the strength of our armies or our navies, but upon the masterful power of the American people"
 "Consternation and despair have given place to faith and courage, the voice of calamity is no longer heard in the land and the orator of distress and discontent is out of a job"
 "One thing that can be said of this nation, for which we should give all thanksgiving and praise, is that it never raised its arm against hu- manity, never struck a blow against liberty, never struck a blow except for civilization and mankind v
 We are just as strong for country as we ever were, and we are just as sensitive of national honor as our fathers were, and we are just as de- termined to keep unsullied the Ameri- can name as those who created us a nation"
 "We are now united country, and we are united for the right, We are united for liberty; we are united for civilization; we are united for hu manity. And being thus united we are invincible."
 The greenbacks no longer seek the treasury to drain it of gold. The people want the greenbacks and pre- fer them to gold. The endless chain has been broken, and endless con fidence in the government has set in"
 The cause of humanity has been triumphant, and that cause committed to our hands will not suffer. When ever we have raised our flag, we have raised it, not for conquest, not for ter ritorial aggrandizemeut, not for ma tional gain, but for civilization and humanity. And let those lower it who will"

"IdenticaIIy the Same" but Radically
 Different.

"A leading republican was yester- day over heard to say that he could not for the life of him see what the JIM. was driving at in its silly howl about bogus platform, as both the platforms under controversy declare for identically the same principles. V Courier.
 When our contemporary gets cor nered it always brings some mythical prominent republican to its aid as in the above item. If both platforms declare for identically the same prin- ciples," why was it necessary to re- pudiate the one adopted by the con vention and manufacture a bogus one?
 If both declare for identically the same principles, why was it that prominent" democrat scompelled the Courier if it pleases it better, ''persuaded' its editor to cease pub lication of the one which was manu- factured after the convention ad- journed? If there is anything silly about this platform business it would seem to be the manufacture of a platform declaring identically the same principles" as the one repudi- ated.
 The facts of the matter are that the two platforms are as dissimimilar as day is from night, as will be seen from any one reading them.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Citizens of Arizona may look for g
 mud slinging campaign from demo
 cratic papers from now until the sixth of November.
 Carl Shurz and Bourke Cochran differing widely as they do about everything else, unite in wishing the democratic party towin ''just for fun, and in promising that it will not be allowed to as much harm in any case.
 They have some up-to-date bees in Connecticut, where they have been giving up hunting flowers and are getting their sweets direct from con fectionary store.
 Parties who expected the Courier to express satisfaction at the nomina- ton of Governor Murphy as candi- date for delegate to congress, were disappointed this morning.
 It was @ great oversight on the part of that republican convention not to secure the Courier's consent to nomi- nate Governor Murphy for delegate to congress. It should have been consulted in the matter.
 Instead of putting forth a lot of epigrams and glittering generalities in order to bewilder the reader, the president, in his letter of acceptance, states all the facts at issue clearly and distinctly. It is a case of solid sense against sound and fury, signi- flying nothing.
 Why didn't the administration put its corps of hypnotists to work during the past summer to make people think that they were cool? The demo- crats say that these have made the country think itself prosperous when it would be a little thing to alter a mere detail of thermometer by the same means.
 Four years ago the democratic standard bearer said the gold demo- crats should get out of the party. This year he says they should come back. Is Mir. Bryan to destroy all his 1896 declarations?- Fix.
 It is enough to make the gods weep to note the hyprocisy of Tammany at With its pockets still stuffed with the wealth derived from the ice trust, it specifically denounces that unholy organization. This is Satan rebuilding sin with a vengeance.
 The feelings of the democrats towards Grover Cleveland are mixed, nowadays. They don't like him a little bit, but then, if he is coming back to Bryan, why, things will be different. Meanwhile, the average democrat is waiting to make up his mind whether to whoop for or at NIT. Cleveland.
 Colonel Bryan has had the nerve .o state that there would have been 10 rebellion if the Bacon resolution the same terms to the Fili- Dinos that the United States had to the Cubans, had been adopted. Surely NIT. Bryan knows hat the rebellion began before the reaty was ratified and before the Ba- ,on resolution was even voted on.
 Mir. Schurz has informed Secretary Sage that his legislative experience him in asserting that sup gold law can be passed at he next session if it be properly It has been twenty-five years since Mir, Shurz was in the sen lte and he must have missed the fact hat in that time at least two success .ul filibusters on most important questions have been carried through despite all the efforts of the majority O force them to vote. Anyhow, why should any one be willing to take chances on such a question!

That Railroad Push.

'The Courier stated that almost the entire taxless railroad push was in the convention hall Saturday, and nc amount of false assertions by the Journal-Murphy can change the fact that they were there. ."-COurier.- The above is on a par with that state ment about the democratic majority at the organization of the Mckinley and Roosevelt club. There were just two delegates in that convention who were in the employ of the railroad company. If that constitutes ''almost the entire taxlesss railroad push" the COurier's assertion. of course. is cor rect. If it does the railroad has a very small push, and one would think our contemporary would not be so easily frightened by it.

LOOKS LIKE MURPHY.

Phenix, A. T., Sept. 24, 30.-Spe-
 cial to Journal -Miner.-Unless all
 signs fail Governor Murphy
 will be nominated for congress by the republican party. A sort of test of strength developed in this mornings session of the territorial convention over an important question concern ing the manner of appointing the va rious committees. Exclusive of prox- ies, the Murphy forces showed 55 votes as against 47 cast by the Christy people. Charles R. Drake called the convention to order and Harry Car penter read the call. A. J. Doran and J. V. Vickers were respectively made temporary chairman and secre- tary by exclamation and the proceed ings were entirely harmonious until the question of selecting committees arose when Jerry Millay and others for Christy accused the Murphy peo-  pie of treachery. They were arraign- ed for violating an agreement reached by joint conference last night. J. c. Adams and others replied that no agreement was reached and the Mur phy people captured the organization and the control of the convention.
 The governor consented to enter the race for himself yesterday after noon, when a canvass of delegates was made and various caucuses were held until midnight when Murphy was generally regarded as a winner. A lively session is anticipated at 2 o'clock this afternoon, but the con vention will probably name nominee today. George Pusch of Pima, has been selected for joint councilman from Pima and Santa Cruz counties.

PRAISED BY JAPANESE.

Correspondent Tells OF American
Ambulance Corps Fine Equipment.
A Japanese correspondent with the
allied forces sent the following to his
paper after the battle of Tien-tsin,
says Victoria B. c. dispatch to the
New York Sun:
"The American ambulance corps has
done some excellent work. Their
stretclers are the best in the field and
show the wonderful inventive faculty
of the Americans. The handles of these
stretchers are so arranged that they
can be formed at once into supports by
clever mechanical contrivance, so
that the stretchers can be used as beds
or benches for surgical operations. The
advantages of this system cannot be
too much commended. for on ground
so swampy and hot as the soil of Chill
the wounded men cannot safely lie
long pending the treatment Oh the spot,
and this Inconvenience is removed by
the American invention. Sixty men
were thus treated directly where they
fell who otherwise would have died.
The Japanese medical staff refer to
the fact in most praiseworthy terms"
