Han a Funny Animal.

Man Is a queer creature; he spends the best years of his life trying to get passes on the rail roads, and when he gets them they have cost him more than the railroad fare would have been five times over. He spends a great deal of time making a home for himself, and when he has made it, he spends more time inventing excuses to stay away from it. He will raise a great TOW at home if he has been given a spoon that has been used by one of the children since it was washed, and then he will go to a free lunch counter and shovel sauerkraut into his mouth with an iron fork that has been used by guzzlers of all nation alities. He tells his children that it is foolish to go to circuses, and then he stands at the railway depot two hours to see the ele plants unloaded. He is a funny animal, but we can't help liking him.

San Francisco, Aug. 2.-Acting on instl uctions issued by President Harri- man, the heads of departments of the Southern Pacific company have begun taking a census of the employees 65 years of age and oveE 1t is thought that this is the forerunner of some sort of pension system, although Hartman has not announced his plans. It is found that while there are no engineers or conductors 65 years of age, quite a number of men in the shops and other are on the list.

Waters Wasting.

It is a study worthy of every resident of Arizona, says the Democrat, to stand on the mar gin of the Colorado river and view the immense flow of water in that stream now passing to the sea, and then turn and scan the horizon east or westward. He will thus realize the fearful loss to humanity in allowing the waters to thus enter the fathOm- less sea. Miles upon miles of as fine lands as exist under the canopy of heaven extend for hundreds of miles on each side of that stream, now idle and baking under the summer sun, while water in abundance Is flow ing past in quantity sufficient to render fertile the entire area from Phoenix to it's banks and then extending westward to the base of the coast range.
 The time is not far distant when the waters of that stream, always at flood tide at mid-sum-  mer, will be utilized and thouS- ands of homes dot the land where solitude new reignS supreme.
 Already a portion of the vast volume of that streams water supply is being utilized to re claim the arid plain west of Yuma, known as the Imprial set clement.

Outlaw Tracy Suicides.

HOme-FirSt and Last.

The town that encourages and fosters home industries is thriv- ing and prosperous. It is also a good town in which to locate, and where people patronize their home merchants and dealers. Every dollar spent in ones own town is just so much added to the public wealth. Every dollar spent among outside parties that can be spent at home detracts just so much from the prosperity of the town. This applies equal ly to trade and labor. Preference should be given our own trades men whenever making purchases ofwhatever nature, and wherever labor is to be employed our own townsmen should have the pre- ference above others. If con tracts are to be given our own bidders should have the first consideration. The lowest bid does not always mean the most advantageous contract, especial ly in dealing with outside parties, as has frequently been demon stratcd. The money that is earned and spent here is what helps pay the taxes and keeps the wheels of industry constantly revolving.

Governor and Mrs. Alexander O. Brodie were very much pleased with their visit to Yuma. In letters to Mayor R. $. Patter- son they expressed their appre- citation of the courtesieS shown them by everyone, and desire that their sincere thanks be ex tended to all who so kindly con tributed to their entertainment while here. Assurance was giv- en that the visit was perfectly happy one, and that they hope when the weather is more propi- tious to make our people another visit and get better acquainted. The people of Yuma were glad of an opportunity to meet Col. and Mrs. Brody and will be fur ther pleased to have them visit our community at any tune.

From colonIsts devoted almost exclusively to agricultural pur- suits, the United States has de velOped into a nation of S0,000, . GOO population, raising every thing needful to their own wants and selling a surplus worth S1, . 800, ,0O0, ,O00 abroad. Much of this has been accomplished un- der the protection policy of the republican party. Is it surpris- ing that the people are unwilling to change?
