Some enterprising Danes, who es-
tablished dairies in Siberia, have been
met by discouraging conditions on ac-
count of the ignorance of the peasants
there. Many dairies have been de-
stroyed by mobs, because it was be-
lieved that the Danes had been sent
there by the devil to turn milk into
gunpowder for the Chinese. Things
were made only worse when drought
came, for the peasants demanded that
the dairymen bring rain by waving
their handkerchiefs, and when this was
not done they became so furious that
the Cossacks had to be called on to
disperse them. Siberia's most crying
need is the establishment of public
schools.

There is wide spread popular notion
that twilight in the tropics is very
bright and that daylight is almost i'm.
mediately succeeded by night. Twi-
light lasts until tie sun is about eigh-
teen degrees below the horizon and
even in the tropics it requires more
than an hour for the sun to reach this
depression. Professor Bailey, of the
Harvard College Observing Station at
Arequipa, in Peru, has lately printed
observations bearing on the point in
question,as follows: "Cn Sunday, June

 Mir. Nave is no less objectionable to the people of Arizona. He has no standing as lawyer, and his attempt to usurp the privileges of member of the Code commission. when he was simply the clerk of that body, was very properly censursd by the press of the territory.

"MUST TAKE OUR MEDICINE.

The nomination by the president of Frederick s. Nave to be United States district attorney of Arizona, and of Benjamin F. Daniel as United States marshal of Arizona, has occasioned good deal of adverse comment, and pro- tests have been lodged at Washington against the confirmation of Daniel. In making these appointments Presi. dent Roosevelt has ignored his party in the territory, and they are more un- popular for the reason that two very good men are displaced, Robt. F.. Morrison, who has made an excellent record as United States attorney, and Myron H. McCord, whose short ser vice as United States marshal has been satisfactory, and against whom no charges were filed.
 Daniel owes his preferment to his record as Rough Rider, and his qual- ifcations are supposed to be further based on his experience as town mar. shal of Dodge City, Kansas, and Grip pie Creek, Colo. Whatever the presi dent may think, these qualifications of fighter are not regarded here as essential to the position of United  States marshal in this territory, as we gre law.abiding people, and Tn intelli- gence and citizenship compare favor. ably with the people of the presidents $ own state.

Since the reassembling of congress

Since the reassembling of congress there are mutterings of dissatisfaction in the senate with President Roose- velt's cratic course, especially in the matter of appointments. The selection of Robt. E. Lee, Bryanite, for mar shal, and Edgar $. Wilson, also a democrat, for United States attorney in Mississippi, has further strained the relations between the president and some of the prominent republicans at Washington, and it is said certain ad. ministration measures will meet with strong opposition when brought before the senate.

FOREST RESERVE QUESTION.

The fight that has been made by tbe people of Salt river valley against the grazing of live stock on the northern ranges has resulted in the creation by the government of immense reserves covering nearly the entire area of Go conino and Navajo counties, and large portions of Yavapai, Apache, Graham and Gila counties, seriously hindering the development of a very large sec tion of Arizona, for the alleged benefit of small farming community. The movement, begun under false prem ise, has grown beyond the expectation and control of those who inaugurated it. The government has taken it up as good thing and Is pushing it with such vigor that it seems to be a question of only short time when every patch of timber and the watersheds of every intermittent stream in Arizona will be removed from entry, sale and use by the citizens of the territory.
 The latest reserve, established by proclamation of the president, is the Rio Verde forest reserve. beginning at point about four and three. quarters miles north of Globe, extending west from the,west line of the White Mount ain or San Carlos Indian reservation to the Salt River reservation, in Maricopa connty, and running in northwesterly direction to within few miles of Bang hart, north of Prescott, taking in all of upper Salt river valley, Tonto and the Verde valley. All vacant, inappropriate ed public lands within the limits of this immense reserve are withdrawn from entry, sale or other disposal. The only explanation of the creation of this re- serve that occurs to us is it's possible bearing upon the upper Salt river and Verde reservoir sites, which are of greater importance now in view of tLe expected favorable action of congress on the question of national irrigation. But whatever may be the reason for the withdrawal of so large an area of the public domain, the consequences are liable to be detrimental to many private interests
 The forest reseIve question in Coco nino county Is complicated by the in. fiuence exerted in favor of establishing the proposed San Francisco mountain reserve by the Atchison and Santa .Fe Railroad company and other large landed interests, who seek to exchange their land holdings in Coconino county for lands elsewhere. The railroad now pays about Sl4 900 taxes yearly to Co., conino county, and should an agree ment between the government and the railroad for an exchange of lands be effected, the county will be the loser of revenue to that amount, which would badly cripple. if it did not bank rupt the county. A committee of citi- zens of Coconino county has been at Washington endeavoring to prevent the consummaiion of the proposed agreement, but with what success is not known.
 Those best qualified to judge are of the opinion that the grazing of stock on the northern ranges has had no per ceptible effect upon the flow of water in the the Gila and Salt rivers. The ! scarcity of water for irrigation is the result of succession of dry years, and in the absence of snow in the | and the extremely dry win ter we are experiencing, the outlook for the farmers in the lower valleys is l far from encouraging.
