The Wall Street Journal of recent
date says: "The sale on the Exchange
Of 10000 ounces of silver at 81, buyer
60, is thought to indicate an impending
movement by the United Metal Selling
Company to advance silver to a much
higher plane. This company now prac.
tically controls the entire export Of sill
yer from the United States, through
its relations with the American Smelt-
ing and Refining Company, and has
great influence in the London silver
market"

The cheapest production of silver in
the United States is at Murcer, Utah,
where by the use of the cyanide pro-
cess the cost of extraction has been re-
duced to % cents per ounce. 1t the
process could be used in the extraction
of silver in Mohave county many of
the old silver producers could be put
on a paying basis. There are thou
sands of tons of ore too low in value to
ship to the smelters that would return
a revenue to the mine owner if the ex-
traction cost less than 4J cents an
onncp

The Orb says that Tucson rightfully
has the honor of having the stingiest
man on earth, basing the claim on the
following facts: He got married to a
home girl TO save expenses, walking
around the court house square for a
wedding tour, bought her a nickle's
worth of candy for a wedding present
aud thea sugSe ,ted that they save the
candy for the children.

Bryan at Prescott.

Living in silver country who is
there that deep down in his heart has
not tender feeling for that great ora
tor and advocate of the rights of the
western people-William j. Bryan.
Having for years admired Mr.. Bryan
from afar we took advantage of the op.
portunity offered last week and went
over to Prescott to hear him discuss
the political situation We heard him
and returned to hingman not at all
disenchanted. He is all that our fancy
painted him: A gifted, broad minded,
ig-brained, studious statesman. In
his discourse, which lasted two hours,
he reviewed the subject of tariff, silver,
expansion, statehood for the territor.
les and storage of storm waters in the
arid west. While there was undoubt
eddy many who disagreed with Mr.
Bryan on many of the political sub
jects discussed, there were few who
doubted his earnestness and honesty
of purpose. He said that if one half
the money now appropriated for the
carrying on of the Philippine war was
used in the reclamation of the arid
lands of the west it would add to the
taxable wealth of the United States
millions of acres of the richest lands
in the world. He also believed the
territories should be admitted to state
hood at once and that great benefit
would accrue to the southwest from
congressional action. His speech was
replete with choice epigrams, his
SMILES we're to the point and his Ian
guage was so plain that the most un-
educated could readily under stand.
Although the night was unusually
chilly the great crowd of people re-
NAMED to the end. Among those who
went to hear him from Mohave county
he will always remain pleasant mem
ory.

without the benefit attending the hori-
zontal increase. We do not profess to
be free trader, but we do believe In
the doctrine of the greatest good to
the greatest number. Take our own
territory as an illustration: We have
say $50 wool growers who are benefited
by the increase in the price of wool
and our 5000 inhabitants who wear
woolens have to pay tribute. Naturally
these wool-growers believe in the gold
standard and in no wise favor extend
ing the benefit of protection to their
brother miner. Their sheep range over
the public domain, feeding off public
grasses, and when the feeces are re-
moved the public are fieeced also.

casually when she entered. She now
looked at me fixedly for an instant.
Another painter?" she asked, in a
whisper.
The question caught Polly unpre-
pared. "Yes - NJ - he's ~ he's a
model"
"Ah, a model" she said, aloud, star
ing at me in very superior fashion
through her lorgnette. "IIe has very
good nose. like his nose. You may
give me one like it,"
Polly gave a start and looked dazedly
at me. Then the faintest of smiles
came into her eyes. every well, his
nose" she said. "Now, what else?"
Mrs. Wilson surveyed the picture
again. "The eyes are bad. Can't you
take away some Of the flesh beneath
them?"
Certainly" returned Polly, with
excessive polteness. Anything else Q"
mo, that's all. But you can touch il
up wherever you think IL can be inn
proved III come up and see it in n
couple OF days" She closed her lor-
gnette and started for the door. Polly
gave me wicked look and followed
her.
II can put some color and a couple OF
dimples into the cheeks, If you like"
she suggested.
whats that?" Mrs. Wilson turned
and eyed Polly suspiciously. More
color and dimplesl"
yes" returned Polly, with nothing
of guile in either voice or face. ''The
dimples will come extra, but / won't
charge you half as much for them as a
good dermatologist would"
The suspicion died out OF Mrs. Will
sons eyes. She could not distrust such
innocence as Polly had assumed

don't think they'd look we'll"
When the door had closed behind her
Polly took n stand in the center Of the
studio and looked wearily down on me.
Its an awful life, isn't it?" she
sighed.
1T seems so. But surely you're not
going to give that woman another
face"
I'm not? Well, I just ara! She's
going 10 pay me for II, isn't she?" Polly
looked almost indignant. 81 suppose

liz would soon be triple-there were lit
tie pockets OF flesh beneath her eyes,
there was marked growth of hair or
her upper lip. and her nose showed a
decided disinclination TO adventure far
from her face. / recognized the orig
inal of the portrait on which Polly was
working.
She took her place in front OF the
easel, and, putting up her lorgnette.
surveyed the painting.
"Good, don't you think?" suggested
Polly.
The lorgnette came down and the
lady Of adiposity shook her head.
1T has some good points, yes" she
admitted. 'But don't like it as a
whole. It-well, il looks too common.
Now, ] hardly think you would say that
l look common" She gazed at Polly
severely through her lorgnette, and
then turned her eyes back to the por-
trait.
"No, indeed" Polly said, with some
haste. She looked at me, and saw her
lips move. II wouldn't dare to-" they
said.
"When buy gown buy il with the
expectation that it will add something
to my appearance. Why shouldn't ex-
pect the same when buy picture?"
"You should" Polly agreed, giving
me look full OF hopelessness.
Just so-thats what | think. Now,
don't you believe that you could-you
could improve it-you could touch it
up bit in places?"
Easily enough" said Polly. "Is there
any special change you'd like to sug-
gest?"
~ can't say like the chin. / don't
like the fullness beneath it. And the
wrinkles they look bad"
Polly eyed the picture critically.
yes, think they do. What kind Of a
chin do you think you'd prefer"
What kind OF chin do / want?
suppose you carry stock?" she asked,
sarcastically.
Anything you want" Polly picked
up pad OF sketching paper, manipu-
lated pencil rapidly for minute, then
held up the pad in such way that !, as
well as Mrs. Wilson, could see the hand
iwork. The pencil had traced a round
ed chin with just the least sugges ton
of matronly fullness beneath it.
How'll that do?" asked Polly.
"Just what want. That'll look far
better Now, don't you think you could
do something Of the kind for the nose?'
"You think it's too-it doesn't come
out far enough?"
"Not in the picture. / hardly think
my nose is as fiat as you have made it,"
She drew herself up with ponderous
majesty, and turned about on Polly.
