Rude Justice.

A certain Arizona justice of the peace,
whose knowledge of the law was never
gained from books or actual practice
before the bar, was hearing an assault
and battery case. The lawyer for the
defense was shouting his arguments
when the court said:
THAT will do. Sit down."
He then adjusted his spectacles and
sagely observed:

DEATH or MRS. KRUGER.
Believed In Lonoon It May Hasten the
End of the War.

Believed In Lonoon It May Hasten the
End Of the War.
New York, July ga dispatch to
The Tribune from London says:
The death of Mrs. Kruger may have
some influence in shortening the war.
Mr.. Kruger himself has been reported
to be exceedingly respondent over the
military operations and the correspond
ence between Reitz and Steyn has JUS
titled his encouragement. His domes-
tic bereavement may cause him to lose
heart for continuing IL peless strug-
gle. His Dutch physicians have been
warning him for months against the
consequences of excitement, since his
heart action is abnormally weak.
The story is brought by influential
South Africans that General Botha
was strongly disposed to surrender,
but did not consider himself at lib
erty to do so against the judgment Of
Mr.. Kruger. General Botha has fam
lily to provide for and is without re-
sources. South Africans assert that
he is dependent upon allowances
which Mr.. Kruger has agreed to make
for him II he continues the struggle
90 long as possible. There is no prac-
tical method Of verifying these ex-
plantations, but this account comes
from South Africans who ought to
know what they are talking about.
The newspapers refer in tones of
sympathy to the death Of Mrs. Kruger.
It is expected that the British army
in South Africa will pay to her in
death honors which her former posi-
ton would have demanded.

of the United States; and
Whereas, Trade with Canada, ouI

armed with Kragg-J Jorggensen rifles and
fourth was prisoner with wrists fac.

all the time under close guard. He was
charged with deserting from the Fifth
cavalry at Fort Huachuca, Ariz., and
was being taken back there to answer
the charge before a court martial.
He Was young, pays the Times, and
but boy ia years, and from the account
he gave OF himself he bad simply been

Services at
The County Jail.

Under the caption, "Try it Here ,
the morning paper prints a communica;
ton from "wellwisher," in which
Sheriff Frank E. Murphy's attention is
called to the religious discipline carried
on in the Jail at Portland, Me. The
"wellwisher" saysi it is "now up to" Mr..
Murphy.
We are sorry to be compelled to call
the morning paper down again, but il it
will not keep it's eyes open and see
what is going on then we must not let
the public be deceived through its
stupidity. The fact is, it is not up to
Sheriff Murphy at all. For the past two
years every Sunday there have been
held special religious services in the
county Jail. During last summer when
the trainrobbera were in Jail the services
attracted considerable attention becauee
of the excellent singing which the
prisoners enriched the services with.
The services are carried ON In such
simple, ostentati6us manner that few
know of it, and we are not surprised
that the morning paper is among the
majority.
All during Sheriff Wakeflsld's term
these services were held and they were
continued when Sheriff Murphy stepped
into Office the first of the year.

Arizona StOCkmen
Are Jubilant.

1t is very likely that never in the his.
tory of this territory has the outlook
been 30 bright for the cattlemen. 1t is
probable that there are fewer cattle in
Arizona now than for years, but accord
/ ing to stockmen, in six months there
VIII be more cattle on Arizona ranges
than ever before. The Republican says
that the reports from the north state
that snow is still falling, adding to the
steady large supply that assures water
storage for all summer. A well-known
cattieman remarked that the influx had
already begun and that cattle which had
been shipped to California three months
ago, were on their way back. Every
owner of herd was endeavoring to in
crease his stock as there was now no
possibility of damaging drouth.
Arizona's good fortune comes just at
the proper time, when the cattle indus
try is rather on the decline in the larger
part of the country.
The agricultural department has given
some startling figures of the decline OF
the cattle industry during recent years,
the number of cattle in the country in
several years being reported as follows:
1890, 36,s49, ,024; 1895, 34,364, PIG; 1896,
81, ,000, 900; 1897. 30, sos, ,4os; 1898, &c.
264, 900; 1899, 27,994, ,225. The fguree
for 1900 are not at hand, but the decline
is believed to have been fully ss great
as in preceding years.
This condition is thought to be due to
three causes The withdrawal of public
land from grazing privileges: the cons
tant settlement OF arabic land, and the
prevalence of partial drought over
large portion OF the cattle raising coun-
try.
Meanwhile the price OF meat has been
advancing steadily, and it has reached
point where cattle can be raised with
great profit.
