In sll these years of my acquaintanceship with him, only voice the sentiment of all others who knew him in saying that he never had and never deserved an enemy. His relations with his fellowmen, high ang low, were full of tenderness, sympathy charity and patience. No man has eveI filled his exalted station who was 1T every instinct more natural gentle man.

 -Four big plebes were led out, oa their hands and knees and stark naked except for towels laid across their backs for saddles. They were the thor oughbred horses" quotes the New York World Then came four small plebes. dressed in undershirts, drawers and caps, and wearing bright ribbon sashes These were the jockeys. Each had 2 hairbrush for a whip. Then came four upper classmen as owners and four more as trainers. The little plebes were mounted on the big p.ebes and all the preliminaTies of a running horse race were gone through. The owners in structed the jockeys to use the whips liberaIiy and go out to win, and ths trainers forced the horses to act up ai the post. Finally the race was started and the four big plebes scrambled dowa the corridor, the little plebe jockeys en. tering into the spirit of the thing and whaling away for dear life wita ths hairbrushes. A big chap from Arkazs sas won, and he was afterward knowz ss The Thoroughbrsd.'

been navigated, or have been navigated since. After the ice pack was reached, Schley, in the words of one of the Greedy survivors, "spent his time at the masthead in the crow's-nest, bar rel-lilze affair, with just room to stand up in and he did notgo down into the cabin for warm meals, but had his cold victuals hauled up to him."
 Schley got back to the United States in July to receive magnificent recep- ton from the North Atlantic squadron, assembled at Portsmouth. Honors poured in on him. The navy depart ment officially thanked and congratu- lated him. the Maryland legislature thanked him and voted him gold chronometer, the Massachusetts Hu. mane society sent him it's medal. and the geographers gave the name of "Schley Land" to wide territory west of Cape Sabine. Meanwhile, the pres ident ordered him to New York, and after personally receiving him, ended a graceful speech of compliment with the words: And, Captain Schley, in fur ther recognition of your achievement shall nominate you to be the chief of the bureau of equipment for the navy"
 But, Mir. President" blurted out the astonished Schley, whose highest expectation of anything tangible from the government was perhaps 8 com mand in the Mediterranean. "I didn't suppose-that is-well, don't think. I've merited such reward as that"
 That is matter, caprain," replied the president, ''of which you will per nit me to jndge."

SchIey's Rescue of Grselv.

Three years before August. lS8D, Greedy, with international agreement, had been sent to establish meteoro- logical observa tion at Lady FranlSlin bay, it being understood that supplies i, and food would be sent him each year. This was not dune. Public opinion now forced congress to act and the president was empowered to ind Greedy or learn his fate. The task was as- sumed, for the navy, by Secretary Chandler, who with characteristic energy proaptlv secured two vessels suited to the work, the British govern ment contributing third. To com mand the rescue feet he selected Com mander Schley, assuring that officer in his letter of appointment that '.fnll confidence is felt that you have both the capacity and courage. guided by discretion, necessary to do all that can be required of you by the department or the nation for the rescue of our inn prisoned countrymen."
 The entire planning of the expedi- tion and its equipment was left wholly to Schley, although he had never before been in. the Arctic regions. By way of further impetus, congress saw it to offer reward of $25, ,000 to any person not in the naval or military service of the United States who sLould rescue the Greedy party or discover it's fate.

The grand jury at the present term of court, as osual, went through the farce of having committees 'examine" the books of the county officers. The committee made the usual stereotyped reports, finding the books meat, clean and kept in systematic manner" the "ofiice ia good shape, and the records kept;;' and ''everything in first class order, making especial mention of the fine system of book keeping" Of course DO committee from grand jury in the limited time it has to work, even if it had the necessary knowledge to do the work, could examine the books in the offices at the court house and tell anything about the condition of the affairs of the county. It has been ten or twelve years since the county af- fairs were thoroughly examined by an ] independent committee of experts. and the Liberal would suggest that it was l about time the work was done again. 1 Not that the Liberal would iasinuate for moment that the present county officers had not done their whole duty.
 If they have they should welcome such

 an examination would be no reflection

PLEASED WITH THE OUTLOOK. The Commerce of Arizona Win Soon Turn
 from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

Manager Ferguson of the San Diego Eastern railroad project last week made trip through Southern Arizona in the interest of his enterprise. He saw much to convince him that the San Diego Eastern railroad scheme is much more feasible project than was anticipated al the beginning. Ia an interview he said:
 "The people there believe in the rail- road to San Diego and they show so many reasons for the building of the road that railroad builders cannot fail to see and understand. New townsites are spriuging up all over the territory, and new mining camps. They are de elaring that Arizona will double her population in the next six years, and believe that she will There are three distinct roads headed toward Yuma and that is going to be 6 city The roads are the Rock Island, the Selig- man Hillsdale line and another line, which has not been heard of very much, but which has 200 miles of road built from St. Louis. They are all doing business over there, and the people are pleased with the outlook.
 "I went over to Bisbee for the pur- pose of seeing Manager Choate of the Phelps Dodge line about our mutual interests, but did not catch him. He sent word, however, that be would be pleased to meet someone from San Diego. That was in letter which re. ceived to-day. They are putting down the tracks about Bisbee in rap,d fash ion. There are five or six copper prop ositions being developed there within radius of sixty miles of Bisbee which are going to be big, and if there were railroad from San Diego into Bisbes at this moment believe il would make the managers hustle great deal to gel rolling stock enough to move the lum' Der they would want in and take theil mine products out.
 Railroads are being built to each of those copper propositions and they cannot get the iron as fast us they want to put it down. The road from Fl Paso to Bisbee will be in operation by the first of January if rails can bt had to complete it. The people of that entire country believe that the tim. will soon come when their output wil come this way to water instead of to- ward the Atlantic. They believe tn products of copper will be used on .hl: coast and manufactured here instea, of in the East, and that the bushes: which is to be done in the future vii be toward the west. For that reasol they assert that the business mus come this way.
 For all these reasons I am nor than ever convinced that the road east ward from San Diego will certainly b the best paying proposition that cal be placed before railroad builders"

A RECORD OF SHAME.
More Than Three Thousand Lynchings
 in the United States Since 1880.

Students of government believe the lynching problem is fast reaching that point where drastic measures will have to be taken by congress to cheek it.
 Governors of the 'lynching" states have been asked for suggestions to stop mob murders. Only one offered anything of value. He said if state laws were passed depriging all county officials of their offices where illegal executions had taken place the effect would be more selutary than through any other form of punishment.
 Most Of the other governors simply threw up their hands in despair. When the people learn to control their passions, then will lynchings cease," was the general expression. Records kept for twenty years show 3,130 lynchings. This year up to Aug ust 30, 10l lynchings took place. The biggest "lynching" year was 1892, with 236. New York had one lynching in 1892 and one in 1896. Pennsylvania is credited with three since 1888. Every state has been the scene of one or more lynehing during the last sixteen years except Delaware, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Utah.
 The state having the largest mum Der is Mississippi with 253 to it's discredit. Texas comes second with 247 and Louisiana third, 22l. Georgia had 2l9, /, Alabama 2l0, anu Tennessee l69. The northern state holding the record for lynchings is Indiana with 36. But two northern territories equal or exceed this. Indian territory having had 53, and Oklahoma 36. Illinois has had l4 lynching, in sixteen years.
 Of the 10l victims of lynch law dar- ing the present year 76 were colored g white, one Indian and one Chinese. Murder was given as the cause for ? lynchings; attacks on women, p murderous assaults, 6; race prejudice, 5; arson, 3; attempted assault, 3 !: sus- pected cattle stealing, 3; suspected killing cattle,l 2; stealing horses, |; train wrecking, l {; keeping gambling house, |; resisting arrest, 1; robbery l;iusuliing l white women. 2; assault ing white person, <; by white caps, ' l mistaken ils8tiSy, l.
 In 1885 the feeling against horse stealing was especially severe, the number of executions for that crime being thirty-fve. In 1888 the Vigil antes were unusually active, lynching seveh. In 1887 "Voodooisrnn was frsi regarded as an oifense grave enough to justify sudden death without re course to the law. h 1888 the horse thieves were again given no mercy, ter of them paying the extreme penalty.
 In 1889 it was the outlaws ana des peradoes who suffered most, nineteen
 of them being strang up by mobs. II 1890 race prejudice claimed five victim ? and political prejudice three.
 , The most sensational feature of 1S9 ' was the summary execution of elevel Italians in New Orleans for allege l conspiracy to murder. In 1892 th g crime of horse stealing cost twent ? more men their lives.
 In 1893 the White Caps began operi
 tions, lynching one mau. In 1899 fv e men were hanged without trial becaus ' they had reputations. In 1900 ras f prejudice was again to the fore wit [, ten victims.
