G;Ia County Socialists.

The socialists of Gila county have nominated a full ticket for the election this fall. The ticket is as follows:
 J. R. Barnett, council: Henry Vivian, assembly: Kenneth Clayton, sheriff; Con Mccormack, probate judge; F. w. Rowland. recorder: $. P. Barber, treas urer; T. B. Parks, supervisor; J. T.W. Brown, supervisor; F. $. Conroy, jus tice of the peace.
 The object of the new party, as stat ed in their platform, is the abolition of capitalism, and calls upon the wage earners to support the ticket in the following language:
 "We therefore call upon the wage working class to rally to the support of the socialist party because it represents the interests of their class, and to be- gin with their votes to organize their class for the abolition of capitalism and establishment of the socialist in- dustrial society, system of society in which the wage working class will col lectively own and operate the machin- cry of production and distribution, thus giving the producers full control of the products of their labor. .''-Silver Belt.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For great many years doctors pro- nounced it local disease, and pre- scribed local remedies, and by con- stantly failing to cure with local treat ment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitu- tional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Halls Ga tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & O., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials.

BUMBLEBEE IS vICTIM1ZED.
The Common Hive Bee CNAninGly
SwAndleo Him Out of HIS Hard
Work Pro0eein.

The wisdom and the extraordinary
industry of the mn hive bee are
known to everybody, but it is not gen
orally known, ever to men who have
made a study of insects, how cunning
and revengeful they are and how by
their attentions and compliments they
manage to swindle the big black and
iyellow bumblebee out of the results
OF his hard days worka at honey gather
ing. His dapper little cousin is an
adept at playing on his weaknesses,
says Nature. The hive bee is a thor
ough city dweller, living in the bee
metropolis which has it's bee mechan-
les, builders and nurses, bee boards of
health that look over the ventilation
of the city and the removal of the gar
bage-bee policemen who guard the
hive against the moth and other honey
thieves, with the bee queen to rule
v 9 all. The clumsy, loud buzzing
bumblebee, however, is a veritable
farmer and lives with a comparatively
small family in his mud farmhouse in
the clover fields. He is such a simple
soul that the hive bees look upon him
as a hayseed.
Several of them will meet him when
he is on his way home with a load of
honey and induce him to stop and have
a chat in the bee language. Then they
pat him and rub him, and the humble
bee loves to be tickled. Thus thew
work upon his good nature until he ac-
tually let's them take part of his bag
of sweets-all of it sometimes. When
he has been robbed in this fashion the
smart hive bees bid him an affcctionate
good-by, acting just as if they were
slapping him on the back and probably
telling him that he must come up to
town and take dinner with them some
day when he is not busy. Who ever
Knew a bumblebee to have a day to
himself? Then the robbers go home
and lay their plumber away, while the
bumblebee sets out for his farmhouse,
congratulating himself upon having
such good friends.

he was portly and prosperous, an al
lucrative state Of affairs that seemed
to give weight to his words. There
fore, the little band gathered in front
of an uptown hotel and which had
watched with interest and laughed
with mean delight at the man who
chased his hat two blocks in one of
those sudden gales, listened with re-
spectful attention to the portly man
who had laughed louder than the 9th
ers, and who led the way to the cafe
bar, relates the New York Mail andEx-
press.
"That hat-chasing game reminds me
of a peculiar thing which happened
to me when a boy" he began. II was
brought up on a farm in this state, and
was one of those happy-go-lucky
youngsters, always in trouble, and
with a happy faculty of getting out of
scrapes.
"One day my father gave me a five
dollar bill to 60 down to the village
and buy some things for the farm.
Boy like, I started off holding the bill
by the corner and letting the wind flap
it about my fingers. There came a
sudden puff and the bill was torn
from my grasp. III fly overs bush
and started off in hot pursuit. 1t
meant ecove that bill or get the
worst licking that ever , country boy
received. -
Jumping over the fence, I saw the
bill dancing merrily along about five
feet from the ground in a ten-acre
field, and nothing to check its prog
ress. My, how I ran! Once or twice
I nearly had it, when a fresh gust OF
wind would send it in another direc.
ton. I chased the bill all around the
field, and finally, painting and exhaust.
ed, I grasped it and fell to the ground
The portly man muttered something
that sounded like ''s'luck," and drained
his glass. The others followed suit
and waited patiently for the climax.
Gentlemen, it is hard to believe, bu,
when I recovered my breath an6
looked at the cause of my furious chase
I found it raj a ten-dollar bill that
somebody else had lost"
Nobody had courage enough to ash
what had become of the five-dollar bill
and the band dispersedin silence.

FACTS FROM LAST CENSUS.
There Has Been a steady Deenn> In
Hliteracy During the Last
Ten Years.

The changes that have occurred
during the last two decades in the IL
literacy of the inhabitants of this
country are of an interesting charac-.
ter as detailed in the last report on
population of the twelfth census, says
a Washington exchange. In 1880 of
the aggregate population of 10 years
of age or yer II per- cent? were classed
as i%lliterate; in the census of 1890 the
percentage of illiteracy wat 1873 per
cent, which, in the census of 1890, had
sunk to 1917 per cent. This indicates
a steady decline in that class of our
people who are entirely without edu-
cation. This decline is most marked
in the colored race. Thus, in 1880, there
were 1901, 207 colored persons, male
and female, living in the United States
of 10 years of age and over, and of
this number 3,22O,s7s could neither
read nor write, thus giving a proper
ton of illiterates of 70 per cent. But
in 1890 the illiterates of negro de-
scent had fallen to ST. per cent,
and by the census Of 1900 it was, shown
that a still further decline had taken
place and that only 44.5 per cent. can
now be thus classified. The number
of foreign illiterates among our for
eign white population appears to re-
main about constant. In those of this
class over 10 years of age there were
IL per cent of illiterates in 1880, 1871
per cent. in 1890 and 1873 per cent. in
1900. On the other hand, among the
native whites this limitation upon in
telligence seems to be slowly passing
away. Of the native white population
of over 10 years of age it was found
in 1880 that 8.7per cent. were illiterate.
This number was reduced in 1890 to
6.2 per cent, and still further reduced
in 1900 to 4.6 per cent. The greatest
gain in this last respect seems to have
been made in the southern states.
Thus, for example, in Georgia in 1880
23.2 per cent. of the native white pop
ulation of 10 years of age and over
could neither read nor write, but in
1900 this proportion had been reduced
to 11.9 per cent, and the reduction
holds good in nearly all of the gulf
states. In Georgia in 1880 only 1874
per cent. of the colored population
above 10 years of age could read ser
write, but now this proportion has. in
creased to 47.7 per cent. We have
given this simply as an illustration
of the way in which a gradual and
highly satisfactory change is taking
place among u people. Educationis
not everything; in fact, a thoroughly
educated man may be an entirely dis
reputable character, but in a free coun-
try, where the government depends
on the will of the majority, it is es-
sential that intelligence rather than
ignorance should control public policy
and unless citizens can read and write
it is hardly possible to have this neces-
sary result secured. &

During the past week prices moved
over rather narrow range but the
trend was upward and today the grain
markets are all very strong and they
made sharp advances. December
wheat closed today ~ cent higher,
and May 1H cont higher than the
close a week ago. Chicago December
was at one time today sB cents high.
er than yesterdays close, and New
York December closed 11B cent high
er than yesterday. The California
market il two cents higher and very
strong. The news is all very bullish.
Foreign markets are strong and high
or. The exportable surplus of the
Californian, Washington and Oregon
crop is already exhausted and
countries importing from the United
States must draw supplies from
Atlantic and Gulf ports. Exports for
last week we're heavy including 542, 500
bushels of wheat and -four loaded at
New York for Australia. The de-
mand at the seaboard is very strong
and 4, 1000, 900 bushels were sold today.
Bradstreets worlds visible supply
increased 1900, 900 bushels compared
with an increase of 1 ,120, 900 bushels
for the preceding week, and 1899, 00O
bushels a year ago. Manitoba wheat
is much higher and is hard to buy.
The official report makes the Manitoba
crop much smaller than former esti
mates. The manager for the Armour
company says that northwestern Wis
ible supplies, and interior stocks, are
ID, 600, 900 bushels under last year;
that bins everywhere are empty and
the milling demand very large and
predicts higher prices. The cash de-
mand is good, elevators taking the
bulk of receipts and buying heavily
to arrive. Everything points towards
higher prices. W. are very bullist
on May wheat and advise purchasers
at present price and especially or
any temporary decline.

A FINE FERTILIZER.
Alfalfa Not Only Has Great Feeding
Value, But Rivals Glover as a
Soil RcstOrer.

The great value of alfalfa as a feed
ing stuff, especially in the western and
southern states, is well understood
This has been esta blished by long prac-
teal experience and by the scien.
tific investigation of number of the
experiment stations. These investiga-
tions have not only demonstrated its
value as a feed for all kinds of stock,
including pigs and poultry, but have
shown the stage of growth at which
the plant contains the greatest
amount of nutritive ma terial and the
best ways of curing and ensiling the
crop.
The value of alfalfa as fertilizer
has perhaps not received SO much at
tention, although number Of sta
tions have investigated this phase of
the subject. Prof. Buffum, OF the Wy
oming station, has shown that the
crop is especially valuable for increas-
ing the nitrogen of soils of the arid or
semi-arid region, for improving the
filth and for destroying weeds by
scrowding them out.
In experiments at this station it was
found that land which had previously
been in alfalfa produced SIS to $12 more
value in wheat, SIG worth more in oats
and SIG worth more of potatoes per
acre than land which had grown po-
tatoes and grain before, and these Gin
ereases of yield aid value were pro-
duced with absolutely no cost for fer
stilizing the land" The results were
obtained on land which had been in
alfalfa five years leaving nothing but
the stubble and roots in the soil
According to analyses reported by
the Colorado station, ton of alfalfa
hay contains A pounds of nitrogen.
s.27 pounds of phosphoric acid, 5o.95
pounds of potash and 40 pounds of
lime. Alfalfa is legum;nous plant
aud is therefore able TO draw the
larger part of its nitrogen from the
air, thus causing an actual increase
of nitrogen in the soil
1t can readily be eenfrom the above
figures that If the alfalfa is turned
under considerable Increase in the
available fertility win result, but.even
il the crop is removed the soil is i'm
proved in filth and fertility by the
shading OF the ground and the decay
Of the large. deep growing ROOTS of,
the plant, as was demonstrated in the
experiments above referred to.
