A man told us the other day
that we didn't publish all that
happens, says an exchange. We
should say We didn't, and will
give few reasons for not pub
fishing everything we happen to
know. In the first place, we
have others depending on us for
a living. If we were to publish
everything we know and hear
we would soon be with the an
gels. See? 1t would hardly do.
In order to please people we
must print only nice things about
them and leave the rest for the
gossips. Yes, it's a fact, we
don't publish all the news. If
we did, wouldn't it make spicy
reading? But it would be for
one week, only. The next week
you would read our obituary.

That fearful monster, the
gareasticus, will certainly make
his appearance in Winslow next
Tuesday. AS there are only two
animals of that species known
to be alive, this will prove a
terrible calamity to the resi-
dents of Winslow. One of
these animals has been known
to destroy whole communities
in a single night. This being
the case, we would advise all
persons to repair to the opera
house on that night, where am
pie means of defence will be
made by the meek and humble
Elks for their protection.

Speaking of the lecture the
New York Herald said: lit is
attractive in theme, unique in
thought and hits off the foibles
of society without regard to
public opinion.
The New York World said:
Carnegie Hall was packed to
the doors last night to hear
Norman Howard Bartlett. And
for forty-tive minutes the au-
dience of fully 800 people lis
tened with intense interest to
one of the keenest and cleverest
lectures now on the road"
And the Boston Globe wrote:
ga powerful lecture; full of hui
man interest; bristling with
sarcasm; and alive with origi-
nality."
Brother Bartlett is to deliver
this lecture, together with
"Christ Before Plate" an his
torical lecture, through the
south and middle west under
the direction of an eastern lee
ture bureau.
There will also be a musical
program. All seats reserved;
tickets, fifty cents; for sale by
members of the lodge and at the
box office. T. J. HESSER,

RAILROAD TATTLE.

Wnlle acting In the capacity OF
of west bound stock
train, run past the east switch
at Williams and collision with
No. 2, which was then occupy
ing the main line, was narrowly
averted. Satisfactory evidence
of the truth of the rumor having
been obtained by the commit
tee, on receiving their report at
their last meeting it was voted
that the said H. 0. be given 80
Brownies, and a full statement
of the facts, with a petition to
that effect, signed by all the
members present, was forward
ed to the general superintend-
ent. The evidence adduced by
the committee and presented to
the order proved this to be an
aggravated case as it was
shown that the hind shack had
kept two hand brakes set all
the way from Chalender.
Those short run crews think
they own about 80 miles of the
S. F. ?. road and that it is by
their kind forbearance we are
permitted to traverse that por
tion OF it which lies between
Winslow and Williams. And
lately they have taken to direct
ing invidious and personal re-
marks to the members of
through train crews who pass
them en- route. Only last trip
one of these worthless asked me
which l was trying to do
raise a beard or fifteen cents;
and another addressed me as
"Nigger Bill" I was prepared
for this brute however, and
heaved a chunk of coal at him
in advance.
Happening to be awake when
we passed the station of Moqui,
east bound, | noticed that the
name ON the station sign was
incorrectly spelled. On my ar
rival in Winslow I Immediately
notified the general foreman
and a few minutes later had the
of seeing him
astraddle of his ''hooche-
cooche" with an 927 report in
one hand and a dictionary in the
other. If he had remembered
that my authority as an ortho-
graphist was almost equal to
my reputa tion for truth and We
racity as established IN this
column he would have saved
time and trouble by sending
out an artist and a paint pot as
[ suggested with orders to
change the sign to read Moqui
instead of Moki as it now ap-
pears.
The other day at Ash Fork a
conductor handed me this dog
gerel:
"Sick 'sm, sock 'em, soak 'em,
If have to go back to Yokum.
Til have his hide,
And his scalp beside,
II have to go back to Yokum.
I don't know what it means
but possibly certain "stinger"
may.
Tourist business has percep-
tibly improved since the post
ing of bulletin No. 214. At my
first opportunity intend to call

thank him personally on behalf
of the members of the o. r. S.

terests as he is to theirs and
will make it their business to
see that all such orders are
complied with.
There were only three east
bound tourists when we left
Seligman one cold night last
week and they would not put

ton. At Ash Fork the conduC-
tor was complaining bitterly
that he was short two quilts

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-The policy OF

during the next session OF Congress q
bill will be introduced confining the
land laws to what ia known as the five.
year-residence provision.
Beginning with the sea coast, of unde.
fined limit, the United States have ap-
propriated. bought and won by treaty on
the mainland about 900. 100000 acres
OF land. The nineteen older States and
Texas we're allowed to keep the SOC, ,000,
600 acres within their boundaries; S5,.
000, 900 acres are in Indian reservations
and 10000, 900 acres in the forest re.
serve. About 81, ,OO0, 600 acres have been
sold and given away. With all this
great business the Government still has
about 4s5, ,000, 900 acres of land open to
sale or settlement, but the people are
clamoring for homes and the easy liber.
ality Of the years gone by is shortly TO
be checked. The point has now been
reached when stock is to be taken, bad
laws repealed and new methods applied,

been studying the question from dis.

Peaches are now cheaper than home

The unusual condition of peaches being
