surprising that the Tribune should think he is the whole thing" but there are number of gentlemen who second his efforts in the work of obstruction, and by killing time in various ways prevent the majority from bringing the statehood bill to a vote and getting it out of the way of other business. We have no great love for MT. Beveridge; his course towards Arizona has been unbecoming a senator and a gentleman but at the same time we believe in giving the devil his due, and when the Tribune attempts to put all the odium of the present hold-up on Beyeridge it does that senator injustice. Those gentlemen, constituting a minority of the senate, who are backing him in his efforts, are equally responsible with NIT. Beveridge for the present obstrue- ton of public business in the senate.

SEVERAL OF THEM.

"The sort of comity which allows a single senator to obstruct the transac- tion of public business, is a comity better honored in the breach than in the observance"
 The foregoing remark by the Salt Lake Tribune has reference to the holding up of the statehood bnl, but our Utah neighbor is in error in as- suming that the obstruction in con nection with this matter is all due to the efforts of "a single senator" ]" It is true that MT. Beyeridge as the leader and representative of the ob- structionists has made himself so con spieuous and obnoxious it is not at all

During the last autumn and winter the Bisbee copper district, in Arizona. has been scientifically studied by the United States Geological Survey. The district was geologically mapped and a detailed study made of the occur renee of the copper ores, with particu- lar reference to their geologic relations and origin. MT. F. L. Ransome, who was in charge of the work, is now en- gagged in preparing full report on the geology and ore deposits of the dis trict, based upon the field work just completed. This report, which will be accompanied by map and illustrations will probably appear early next year. It is expected that it will afford a more satisfactory basis from which to plan deep prospecting than has yet been available.

A bill has been introduced by re- quest, authorizing the boards of super visors and distrit attorneys of the sev- eral counties of this territory to ap- point private detective in each of the counties, at an annual salary of $500 The Blade makes 8 strong objection and says: This is the most outrag- eous proposition yet suggested by place hunters. It is simply a scheme to create lot of sinecures for politi- cal strikers, who desire to be support ed at the expense of the taxpayers. It should not receive a single affirma- tive vote in either branch of the legis- Iature"

CURRENT COMMENT.

If Senator Beveridge is responsible for the postofice appropriation bill being held up and not passed by this session of congress, he should be. tried as others for holding up the U. s. mails If it was left to a western jury to de- eide he would be convicted on the first ballot.-Tombstone Prospector.

THE BRINDLE STEER.

Oh. what has become of the brindle
steer
Who IaziIy loIIed N the lot2
And the yoke he wore. with its wooden
pins
Are these and the wagon forgot2
Are all the old things OF the other time
EnguIfed in the shams of today?
Has the wind also, in its shifting course.
Blown these old idols away?
Oh, what has become Of the brindls
steer
Who tofled away in the bog2
Whose muscles were taut. and swollen
with
The weight of 1he cart and the Ioge
But he chewed his eud, nor grumbIed,
Nor faItered once in the day
Alas for the wind, in its shifting course,
Has it blown all these away?
Oh, what has become of the brindls
steer.
And the big, tall man with the whip2
Snapped. alas, for a pun of steam.
The sail and the shrek of the shipI
And the cid yoke rots out under the
shed.
The wagon has gone % decay.
For the wind also. in its shifting course.
Has blown these things away.
