LEARN TO RELAX.

II is strange how few people really
know how to relax, to let the bed hold
them instead Of vainly trying to hold
up the bed, says Health Culture. Give

Do not anticipate your journeys end
Of waste nerve force by mentally going
ahead and fussing because Of delay,
Qobnot mentally get out and push the
ear along because you do not reach
your destination in a moment Relax,
drop the subject from your mind, and
you will reach your objective point

"Navvies."

Mr. Chamberlain is credited with the
intention of exporting thousands of
British ''navvies" to South Africa. The
word is now much more frequently
used in the colonies than in the mother
country, but It had its origin here. 1t
dates from the period Of the construc-
ton of canals, when the phrase finland
navigation" became familiar to eye
and ear. The workmen employed on
canals came to be known as "naviga-
tors and by q natural process Of lin
guistic condensation the word was
soon abhreViated into "navvies." Its

SHORTAGE OF ChtLDREN

It is an old saying that common stock breed rapidly" and we had just reached the conclusion that the notice able decrease in the size of American families was d sure indication that the American people were all becom- ing thorOughbreds. But the editor of Harper's Weekly knocks the idea of grading up from long horn out with a more practical argument. He says:
 The great thing that keeps the size of the American fani ies down Is social and pecuniary ambition. There are a few thrifty parents in the land farmers, miners, mill workers and the like-who look upon children as a potential source of income, and raise a good many because their keep costs little, and their labor is valuable. We don't approve of persons of that way of thinking. Our American feeling is that the parents should work for the children, but not the children for the parents, except in cases of special necessity. Almost all of us want our children to be better off than we are ourselves. We would rather have two children and give them what We con sider special advantages of nurture and education than have five and be unable to do for all of them what we want done We are impatient of the common lot. Unless our children can rise above it, We think 1t a doubtful advantage to have secured them an entry into this world"
 Now that is not altogether bad characteristic. It makes for progress to a certain extent, but We carry it too far. We are too prudent too selfish, for both ourselves and our offspring. It is by no means the children who have the most advantages that do best in the world, but those, rather, who are born with the best brains and bodies, and are hardest prodded by the spur of necessity. For the sake of pampering two children we for felt the chance of drawing great prize among the tree others that we might have and don't"

CHANGES OF SUCCESS.

Senator Vest broadly defines the conditions of democracy's success or failure in the campaign of 1904. II is his view that democracy cannot win if the affairs of the country and the people undergo no change between now and then. for the reason that the republicans will ascribe the prosper ityy'' which may then prevail to the Dingley tariff, and the majority of voters will not stop 10 analyze the ruth of the claim.
 While it is true that the republicans have all s,aked everything on the maintenance of the high tariff. the Re public is of the opinion that, it is no less true that they have in several instances signally demonstrated the fallacy of the proposition that the tariff is responsible for prosperity; and it is true that the democratic party will be prepared to confront the peo- pie with an argument against high tariff more powerful than ever before.
 Not only have the republicans dem onstrated the faliacy of their position, but they have repeatedly shown to the country the nature of the influence which dominates their stand. the pow erful interests concerned in legislation. The tone of the republican press gen orally protends popular disposition to revolt at syndicate rule-which in the popu ar mind meets a greater re- pugnance than at any previous time in the history of the republican party.
 Results have disclosed how vain was the attempt to subordinate the tariff question. The bland quality of anti trust legislation provided by the party has been in the line of an attempt, equally unsuccessful, to subordinate the trust issue. That the trust and tariff issues and the money-rule issue are interminably and intimately bound up is so obvious as to pass mention Contingent upon republican success is the party's ability 10 answer directly all three of these issues. They admit no evasion, and the country is keenly alive to the facts.
 Other contingencies appear to war rant consideration. Just now it is patent to everybody that the republi- can machine does not grind easily. That the friction may develop an ir- reparable break seems now among the probabilities. especially in view of MT. Rooseyelt's treatment of the south, which threatens a sold front, ire spective of party. against his candida. cy Also, having deeply offended the producing west, the party may find success ultimately hinging upon it's ability to appease that section.

PIMA COUNTY
 RAILROAD BONDS.

The funding of the Pima county railroad bonds by the territorial loan commission this week, closes a piece of legal robbery that is outrageous, and subjects the people of Pima county to pay a debt of nearly s350 ,000 for which they never received any benefit. The original bonds, which this debt repere- sents, were issued in aid of the con struction of a narrow gauge railroaG from Tucson to Globe. The road was graded eight or nine miles across the mesa towards the mountain in the direction of Globe. an engine and two 6r three fiat cars were purchased and an excursion carried the enthusiastic citizens of the old pueblo to the banks of the Rillito, where a pleasant picnic day was enjoyed. That excursion ride was the sole benefit received by Pima county for the railroad debt.
 After the promoters of the railroad kot possession of the bonds, work was discontined and it become plain that the enterprise. from beginning to end, was scheme to fleece the county of Pima. When this fact became patent to all, the board of supervisors refused to recognize the debt as valid and when suit was brought to enforce payment of the interest the courts de eIared that the bonds had been issued in violation of plain law which pro hibits territory or any subdivision from granting aid to any railroad. The case was appealed to the supreme court of the United States, which af- frmed the lower court, declaring the bsnd issue to be illegal and void. This decision was accepted as final, and the peop.e of Pima county were. for a lime. relieved of any further anxiety about the matter But the peace of mind and satisfaction on this account vas doomed to short duration, and when it began to dawn on the mind Of Tucson that the once defanct and void narrow guage railroad bonds had
 
 n act passed by congress in 1895, pro viding for funding debts in Arizona, a vail went up from the banks of the Santa Cruz The county officials made . vigorous defense against new suit brought by the bondholders to compel the territorial joan commission to fund the narrow gusge bonds in accordance with the rehabilitsting act of 1895. but when the fight was ended in the last ditch the county had lost and the issu- ance of the new bonds this week was the result. 1f
 There is no room for questioning the fact that congress was deceived into enacting the law which validated ( debt against Pima which bad been field by the highest court in the land fo be illegal and void, and that the Jaw was passed in ignorance of the fact that no value whatever had been given in exchange for the obligation. Congress having thus virtually created this debt against Pima county that body should step up and undo this great wrong by making provisions for its payment.
 It was suggested by the loan com mission. who had no other alternative than to obey the mandate of the high est court in the land and issue the new bonds. that there be concerted action on the part of the territorial officials, county officials and the people of Ari-
