Some Of the mysteries of reIography

Indianapolis Journal:
At the next meeting of the directors of
the Associated Press, to be held in New
York soon, a petition viii be presented
by the telegraph operators employed by
the association asking for an advance
of 20 per cent in their pay These oper-
ators are a skilled class. being the pick
ed men of the profession, and their Pc
titlon viii probably receive favorable
consideration though they may not get
the full amount of advance asked for.
They are not very numerous, numbering
only about 200, and they have no union
or organization. There is, therefore, no
probability of a strike, but they expect
their petition to be considered on its
merits.
The telegraph service of the country
has become a large part of its daily life.
in a social and commercial way and in
the collection and distribution of news,
but the mechanical part of the service IS
almost as much Of a mystery to people
in general as it was when the telegTa phi
was first introduced. There is scarcely
another manual art Of any kind Of
which the public knows so little. and it
is not altogether a manual art either
for modern biography, especially Of the
kind used by the Associated Press, re-
quires bright inteuectS and keen intel
ligence. The same is largely true of
railroad telegraphy, on the accuracy Of
which the movement of thousands OF
trains and the safety Of hundreds of
thousands Of passengers depend every
day.
TIE Associated Press operators are
mostly old timers" who handled the
press reports years before the type
writer or what is called the Phillips
code came into use. Twenty years ago
all that was required of the operator
was Eapidity in transmitting and re-
eefving news matter and transcribing

OPPOSED TO REPEAL.

The Bisbee Review, a staunch dem- ocratic paper, comes out squarely and fairly in opposition to the repeal of the tax exemption law. It is refresh ing to read in democratic paper an article which advocates justice and fairness:
 The bills introduced into the pres ent legislature which seeks to repeal all laws the which have been enacted in the past eXempting railroads from taxation should be turned down. We believe that there should be no more laws passed exempting railroads or any other property from taxation, but we do not believe the people of Arizona want to annul or render void any agreement of the past extending the tax-exemption favor to railroads. The railroads built under the exemp- tiOn laws were promised by the repre- sentatives of the people of Arizona that if they would construct their lines they should be non taxable for a certain number of years These promises should De sacredly kept on the part of the territory. Arizona is too much in need of capital for in- vestment in the development of its va rious resources to show any disposi- ton to play fast and loose with men who put their money into railroads or any other enterprises in the terri tory. Let's stand by all our promises made to induce capital to invest in Arizona"

The folloWipg suggestive resolution has been introduced in the Texas sen ate, probably more in the spirit of sarcasm than as a serious matter Whereas. There are many dukes, lords and counts touring the United States seeking matrimonial alliances with our most accomplished and richest marriageable young ladies, and being desirous of protecting them from be- ing deceived and duped, therefore be it Resolved, That the committee on federal relations be requested to ocinc iu bill providing for inc taxa 5ion and licensing of foreign dukes, lords and counts, both real and gen uine, bogus and fraudulent, found in the state of Texas, and providing se- we're penalties for violation of said law. to the end that the young women of Texas may be protected against en- gazing in speculations of such risky and danee'5H- character as investing in such enterprise

NO PRISON REMOVAL.

The "prison removal" cry contains either "nigger in the woodpile'' or gigantic graft, perhaps both, and it did not originate with any of the members of the legislature either. Outwardly it may have come from a legislator, but there are some who ap- pear very amiable and docile, but are able to sit up and look around just the same, and who know a thing or two. They are not grarters and are watching things solely in the interests of the people, and whenever any at tempt is made to gouge the public purse strings there is going to be something doing.
 Several members of the legislature deny that they knew that there was a plan to remove the penitentiary; they deny that conference was held for the purpose of discussing it. Others, however, claim that the scheme was not divulged until few nights ago, and it came from a source that will bear watching. There is no popular demand for the removal of the prison, there is no necessity for the removal.
 And why should the legislature be- gin to talk about doing something not beneficial or necessary where there is so much to be done that should not be overlooked, things that are necessary and of far more importance than the prison removal?
 The Gazette does not believe that the legislature will touch the subject, or at least go so far as to pass bill ordering the change.
 If it is absolutely necessary that the prison should be removed, why not locate it at Maricopa or Globe, the most centrally located places in the territory and the most easily ac cessible. e.-Phenix Gazette.

FEMALE GAME WARDEN.
\ Colorado Girls Wild Ride on Il
 Back of an Angry Elk.

Back of an Angry Elk.
 The following reads like "fish story but it was sent out from Den yer as a news item and is given for just what it is worth Miss Emma Kellogg, as game warden in Routt county. will be distinct novelty. Miss Kellogg's most thrilling adven- ture was wild ride on the back of an elk. While out in the hills one day she came suddenly on an angry elk. She had leaned ser gun against a tree and before she could get it the elk was upon her. Miss Kellogg took advantage of a moments respite to climb the tree and sat on the first limb. This angered the elk more than ever and he gave the tree such bunt that Miss Kellogg fell off. She would have been stamped to death by the animals sharp hoofs had it not been that luckily she fell on the elk's bdth. Ihths Nlti SItdb lltSthNc UT mind. she grasped the antlers and held on for dear life.
 The elk darted through some thick brush where overhanging branches came low down, in order to brush the rider off. but the terrified animal mis- calclatued about its antlers and got caught in the branches. It struggled and struggled, but could not get loose, and it was but the work of a moment for the intrepid mountain girl to kill the captive animal by cutting its throat with her hunting knife.
