THE LEGISLATURE.

The house has passed the following bills this week:
 By a vote of II to 10, bill taxing dogs. The bill puts almost a prohibi tive tax on dogs, and provides that the constables shall keep book where the names of the owners of dogs as well a: the names of the names of the dogs shall be registered; that the dog shal wear a collar and be tagged.
 A bill changing the name of the Ter ritirial Insane Asylum to the Asylum for the Insane was passed.
 The bill which seeks to prevent con- stables from appointing deputies was passed by vote of 22 to ,.
 The bill for the regulation of the practice of medicine in this territory passed the council almost without op- position. The bill is not greatly differ ent from the present law on the same subject, but it wipes out some of the inconsistencies of that law, the dead ly mark left by the famous code. It is just such a measure as the medical practitioners of the territory wanted, and representatives from every part of the territory have been encouraging it's progress through the legislature.
 The action of the members of both branches of the legislature in voting themselves S1O apiece for postage is a species of petit larceny which a proper sense of public duty and honor con demns. Although similar bills were introduced at former sessions, the Twenty-second ]e yislature is, we be- lieve. the first to have ever been guilty of such pilfering from the public treas ury.-Silver Bell.
 Council bill No. 30, by Ashurst, re- lating to the appointment of clerks of boards of supervisors in first, second and third-class counties, was passed by a party vote.
 Also bill relating to county record CTS, which provides among other things that in counties of the second and third classes recorders may appoint deputies at salary of S6O month, independent of the board of supervisors.
 Another bill passed last week ap- propriatiug S36O for the purchase of postage stamps for the members. Thus it will be seen that so far the territor- ial statutes have not been materially altered. A good many bills have passed each house and have been trans mitted to the other, but they are in the hands of committees and any frantic desire to report them has been manfully restrained.
 A bill which gives justices of the peace the power to foreclose on mort gages under $500, was passed by a vote of 21 to 3.
 House bill No. 86, giving the govern or authority to take the Arizona mili- tia to St Louis exposition, was consid- cred engrossed, read third time and passed without dissenting vote.

Great Rush to California.

The volume of travel to California at this time was never before so great To give an illustration of the rush: Representative Loud wanted to get sleeping accommodations from Chicago to Los Angeles, where he had business to attend to at the earliest possible mo- ment. Tuesday night he received a telegram from the railroad office at Chicago that the earliest berth that could be allotted him is week from next Thursday night. When Mr. Loud read the telegram he inquired if every body on earth is trying to get into Los Angeles this winter.

Ira W. Davis, former we'll known resident here, but who of recent years has lived at Morristown, Arizona, died at the Southern Pacific hotel early Friday morning while sitting in chair He had been on a spree for several days and during the time had contracted pneumonia. This and the effects of drinking spirituous liquors without eat ing anything scarcely, was a combina- tion that nature could not endure. De- ceased was a brother of the late w. C. Davis of Tucson, and was otherwise prominently connected. The body was embalmed and shipped to Tucson for interment, by direction of Mir. Herbert Tinney. cashier of the Tucson National Bank, who arrived in Yuma Sunday.
 Mir. Frank Stevens, a well-known naturalist, is camped on the California side of the Colorado river. For more than twenty years he has been engaged in collecting material for the purpose of publishing a work on the birds and mammals of California. His we'll known probity and years fpainstaking labor have particularly fitted him for the work he has in hand. His work in the field has been of great value to nat uralists, and when compiled into one volume it will be still further appre- ciated.
 The infant daughter of MT. and Mrs. P. T. Robertson died on February 26 and was laid to rest the following day. Though the little ones life was brief, the tendrils of parental love were none the less strong, and the grief caused by the loss of their baby can only be real ized by those who have been similarly bereft. Mr. and Mrs. Robertson have the sympathy of their many friends.
 John Doan was appointed referee in bankruptcy for the third judicial dis trict in Yuma county by Judge Kent last Saturday. He succeeds Pierce Evans, who resigned.

Beauty Doctors Little Troubles.

City Marshal Meadows arrested a man named Sullivan in Phoenix one day last week and brought him back to Yuma. It seems that Sullivan had been doing land office business here as "beauty doctor" recently and had ob- tained considerable money from his patients" without giving value re- ceived, or doing as he had promised. Dr. Sullivan had devious ways of pro- ducing lCveliness in the fair sex. One was by the use of a complexion lotion; another was by massage. With each supply of the lotion sold was an agree ment to give the patient" a thirty-day "treatment". The bill for the whole lovely contract was collected in advance and the doctor hiked out for Phoenix without giving the promised thirty-day "'treatment." And it is said he carried along with him big bunch of Yuma money. The swindled patients, how ever, secured warrant for the beauty dealers arrest. We understand that Sullivan has squared himself by paying all legal costs incurred and reimburs- ing his patients" for the treatment they didn't get, and has been turned loose to ply his profession in other fields It is doubtless fact that Dr. Sullivan's Yuma patrons are better off, even "more pretty" by having missed the extra treatment.

Mrs. Grace Steel of RedlandS, Cal, has brought suit against the Arizona Giant Copper Company, whose proper ties are situated near Ehrenberg, this county.
 Mrs. Steele claims that the stock of the Arizona Giant Copper Company was represented to her to be worth $I per share, while in reality it was then selling for , cents. She says she was induced to turn over her Redlands orange orchard and considerable cash in order to become stockholder. She places her actual losses at SlO,OOO. which she now seeks to recover from Blakely and Adams, who engineered the transfer. Other citizens have in vested quite heavily in this stock, and they have for some time been thinking of following Mrs. Steele's example.
 Mr. Emerson Gee was at the Gandol- fo a few days since en route to Califor- nia for short vacation. He was ac- companied by Mrs. Gee, handsome and very estimable lady. It is reported that he has left the,service of the Cali fornia King Gold Mines Company, of which he was superintendent, and will again take charge of the Duquesne Copper Company, in the Patagonias, south of Tucson. Under his former management the Duquesne was devel- oped into copper property. His re- turn to it has long been anticipated. MT. Gee is considered frst-class min ing superintendent, and IS always pleasant and courteous gentleman.

IRRIGATION IN UTAH.
The Great Work of Retaining the
Arid Lands,

Were it not for irrigation the great state
of Utah would be almost uninhabitable; it
would certainly be if the people had to live
on products raised within it's borders" said
F. G. Hopkins of Salt Lake. THE work of
retaining the arid lands, therefore, has
been of prime importance. and is the one
proposition upon which all the citizens are
united. There are thousands of acres that
need only little moisture to make them
profitable from an agricultural standpoint,
In which event they could produce wheat,
oats, corn and vegetables in abundance.
when the Mormons first made their
homes in the state they realized the neces-
sites of the situation and began by dig
gng small irrigating bitches on the lands
they proposed to reclaim, and as other set
tiers came the great work was pushed
ahead. bitches were extended for miles
from the Great Bear river, Utah lake,
Great Salt lake and their tributaries and
the lands so traversed soon became green
and fertile Up to this time the people Of
the west have been handicapped in their
irrigation measures by lack of means, but
the people have strong hopes of govern
ment assistance

PRINTING OFFICE PRECAUTIONS.
Every Line of Proof and Every Page
of Copy is Kept.

1T will not be possible" said an en-
ploye of the government printing office,
for any one to place errors on this Office,
for every line of proof and every page
of copy Is carefully preserved. This is
done in order to protect the Office. 1t is
not an uncommon thing for errors to be
charged to stenographers, proofreaders
and printers. and every precaution is taken
to guard against such.
The universal use of the typewriter
has robbed the labor of the printer and
proofreader of much of it's humor and
nearly all of Its misery. Time was, and
that not many years ago, when all the
copy for the Congressional Record came
TO the printing office in the ehirography
of the author. Those were days of pro-
family and drink and no end of printers
yarns are yet extant among the old ones
Of the, place in regard to the awful fist
written by some of the men whose names
are immortal in history, and that without
the assistance of the Record. The list of
theSe poor penmen Is legion, but 1t is
pretty generally conceded that the name of
Reverdy Johnson should be at the head of
the roster. though Pratt of Indiana is said
by some to be deserving of that honor
one excellent compositor of that old re-
gime. somewhat addicted to rum, was said
TO be the only printer who could read
Pratt, and he could do so only when he
was drunk. Now it Is the corrections alone
that bother the printer and all of these are
obscure enough to show what the work
would be II in the written hand of the
speaker Even with the utmost care grave
errors will at times intrude, but copy and
proofs are kept to be the safe side in
case of trouble coming up"

Effect of Rain in Texas.

Based on experience the general outlook
Tor the farming industries this season is
very encouraging because the rams of the
past few months insure a fine cattle range
and all wet winters have heretofore been
followed by good crop years, so far as
staple crops are concerned. said A. s..
Price OF Austin. Tex. But the excessive
rains and the lack of sunshine have ruined
the early cabbage crop, kept back the en-
tire crop of spring vegetables and delayed
the planting of other truck products until
the danger point of being too late has been
reached And as the truck growing indus
try gave promise several months ago of
forging to the very front of the industries
OK our section Of the country the backset
which has unexpectedly been received is
very discouragtng to those who have SO
long stood by 1t. However. the old ana ex-
perienced growers still have confidence and
believe that in the long run they Will be
benefited by the conditions as they now
exist"
