Hunting For New Writers.

Eight thousand manuscripts were received " The Ladies' Home
 ournal during the year just closed. Each was given a careful reading, but out of the entire number only eighty were found worthy of publication. The Manuscript
 'ureau of The Ladies Home Journ- al is operated at large expense but the hopes of discovering new writers or some aspirants with un- developed talent warrants the out lay. It can be seen that the articles secured by sue d careful winnow- ing process brings the cost of each up to and above the remuneration paid our Lest writers.
 These facts bring refutaIion to the oft repeated but none the les. erroneous assertion that only we'll known writers of established literary reputation are able to find plaee for their work in the magazines. Exactly the contrary is true The Ladies Home Journal, through the manuscripts considered, has discov cred three or four new writers of excellent merit and great prom SC, and this find" its editor regards as fully warrantlng the large outlay of maintaining an expensive bureau for reading all the manuscripts submitted.

< PECULIAR CASE,

The Gazette as a rule doesn't criticise jaw cases that are on trial, and would not discuss the one at issue were it being tried before a jury But knowing the steadfast purpose of Chief Justice Street and realizing that newspaper criticism cuts no figure as to his decisions one way or another.
 The case of s. Morgan Smith vs. the King of Arizona mine occupies the attention of the court yesterday. and will come up again this morn ing. The Gazette listened to the affidavits of the attorneys and it is safe to say that for ways that are dark and peculiar, this case stands alone in the history of Maricopa county. Gel. Epes Randolph testifies to various facts under oath; makes, in fact, serious and damaging allegations. Then comes MT. Smith, from the other side and makes statements under oath in direct contradiction te the state msnt of Col. Randolph, Some one is lying, and lying like sin in this case. Either Col. Randolph is swearing to & condition of affairs that has ne existence only in his affidavit, or Morgan Smith has utilized the courts of Arizon a for purposes that are base and unjusti- fable.
 Col. Randolph has lived in Ariz- ona for several years. He is now and has been at the head of the Southern Pacific railroad company in this territory, and he is known as one ot the most reliable, suostan- tial citizens of Arizona. A man that would not under any consider ation wrong any man; hiF dealings with the pnblic have covered a period of years, and never whisper of wrong doing has been attached to his name. The people of Ariz- ona will be slow to believe that Epes Randolph has subscribed his name to false affidavit. AS to Mir. Smith, we know nothing; all we know is that yesterday he was forced to admit in open court that an affidavit he filed in this case was untrue, and he withdrew the same from the record of tbe court.
