The aggregate annual letter
and newspaper mail of the
world amounts to 32,5O0,00O,-
900 pieces, of which $500, ;
900 go through the United
States mails. We have $780,
900 postoffices and 100000
miles of postal routes. The
service costs over $15O,OO0,-
600 q year. But for $22,0OO,-
600 spent in the establishing
the rural free delivery, which
now serves one-seventh of the
population Of the United
States, the postoffide would be
self sustaining.
r. S. Garrison, the out going
clerk Of the courts. has been
checking up the books of his
office for the six years of his
incumbency. To do this
properly he must examine and
check in fifty-five books, as
the account is kept in each
case in the book it was entered
first. He h as paid out all
money coming into his hands,
by checks on the banks. He
has issued about 5000 cheeks
in doing this or an average Of
500 checks year. ED" has
been a good official. Wedo not
believe there has been a better
clerk of the court in the state.
He has a good legal education,
a fine stenographer and type
writer, and a splendid back bone
all of which enabled him to
serve the public we'll. We
do not know what his plans are
for the future, but there are
plenty of opportunities fer

Evangelist Faulconer has
stirred up considerable indigna-
ton in Des Moines by stating
that modern ministers are
afraid to tell unpleasant truths
and that bread and butter con-
siderations prevent the promul-
cation Of truth. He is right to
a great extent. Charges are
held in these days in most
instances by flattery of the
prominent members of the con-
gregation and the agitation of
unwelcome truth is interdicted.
Yet the modern evangelist goes
to the other extreme and
renders his excavations against
evils positively nauseous. IN
compromising warfare on UNI
truth, viciousness, chine, hypoc-
risy, venality and kindred evils
is eminently the field of the
moral teacher, but this warfare
does not call for the utterances
of obscenity which character
ICES the speech of so many evan
gelists and which disgusts al
right-minded people. Let there
be a reformation in evangelism.

 western attached to the regular train.
 Mir. Van Week is a brother of Joseph
 Van Week, formerly a member of the
 Phelps-Dodge Company. who died in
 New York City some time ago. The latter, who was well known in his pro fession as an architect. was the one
 who designed the Copper Queen Hotel in this city.
 MT. Van Vleck. who has been stop
 ping in the city for several days, has
 been a college professor for nearly if ty years, mathematics being his spe- cialty. and he and his son, who is at present teaching mathematics in Wes- leyan University, are among the most prominent mathematicians in the Unit ed States. MT. Van Vleck, during the greater part of his life has held the chair of mathematics in Wesleyan Uni versity, one of the oldest and most prominent of the New England col lleges. and for number of years has acted as vice-president of the Univers. fty. At present he is professor emer- itus, with an indefinite leave of ab- sence, but with permission to resume his duties at the university at any time he chooses.
 An old an intimate fried of Profes- sOr James Douglas. MT. Van Week was by him treated to every courtesy while visiting in Bisbee, a special car being at his disposal. Saturday was spent by the party. accompanied by Mrs Cleveland Dodge, in visiting the mine and the company store in this city, and in driving bother points that would naturally be of interest to those visit. ing Arizona for the first time. The city of Douglas was in turn visited yes terday, when the party went through the sInelter of the Copper Queen com pany and other interesting scenes, in cluding a trip across the line into Old Mexico, at Agua Prieta
 Departure for California will be made today, Mir. Van Week intending to renal nthere for two or three months for the benefit of his health
 This being the first time that the visitors had ever been in Arizona. though they were naturally quite fa- miliar with the history of Bisbee and Douglas, they were very much inter- ested in the novelty of the surround ings and expressed themselves as very much impressed with the wonderful growth of this section, Miss Van Week finding no fault only at the absence of green to meet the eye.

Especial to Review.l

Phoenix. Ariz.. March 20.-The Su- preme Court adjourned on Saturday for a short recess. Although the leg islature adjourned without taking ac- ton on the bill re-districting the Ter ritory. the law passed by Congress, making provision for the additional judge in Arizona, provides that the five judges shall meet in the Capital of the Territory and fix the judicial district It is stated on good authori- ty that the districts have been practi cally decided upon already and that Judge Tucker will fall heir to Graham aud Gila Counties
 A prominent attorney said this morning that the matter was all cut and dried, in his estimation. and that the districts would bea as follows:
 First-Pima and Yuma.
 Second-Cochise and Santa Cruz.
 Third-Maricopa and Pinal-
 Fourth-An the northern counties as they are at present.
 Fifth-Graham and Gila.
 He va seQquaqlqlyq pqqosqitqiveq
 He was equally positive that Judge Campbell would be assigned to the First district. and that the new man, Judge Tucker, would get the fifth dis trict. It is understood to be the wish of the entire Pima bar that this pro gram be carried out, as the attorneys there do not particularly want man to whom mining law must, from the nature of things, be very unfamiliar, to say the least.
 Judge Doan has announced that he will make his permanent home in Tombstone. and will remove there from Florence during the next few months, or just as soon as he can se- cure a suitable residence.
 Judge Doan announced today that short term of court will be held at Tombstone on April 3.

OF the candidates, who haye distribut-

They are Congressman Claude A .

Willard. This Is said to have proven
a most effective method OF complaining.
There are no Judge Mann buttons out

b. There Is talk among the Republicans
OF nominating S. Brown Allen, OF
Stanton, for governor. He has long
been a Republican leader, and is wide
ly known. The people Of this section,
however are strongly in favor OF Dis

Home Mission Matter.
Mrs. GEo. PEERY, Editor.

Mrs. GEO. PEERY, Editor.
A minister's wife, who is also the
conference president OF the Woman's
Home Mission Society; has transform
ed the interior OF her parsonage home
by painting the inside wood work with
Jap-o-lac, and 10y self denial, is seek
ing TO make other improvements which
will add to the permanent comfort Of
the parsonage.
The above item is taken from our
monthly bulletin. 1t may be all right
for this minister's wife TO do this work,
but from our view point it should have
been done by the Home Mission So
ciety If they have one, or 10y the men,
bers OF the church. Minister'S wives
usually have to practice self denial
enough without having to keep the
parsonage in repair. Any way, this is
what we think about it.
Successful city mission work is be-
ing carried on in Portsmouth. Va, I'M
der the auspices OF the Methodist
church, but updenominatiOnal in its
work, with Miss Helen Bakern charge.
Last year she paid 900 visits, nursed
the sick, shrOuded the dead, carried
food and clothing, and in many cases
did the cooking. washing and mending
for those unable to care for themselves.
This year she has opened an industrial
school, where about sixty children are
being taught TO sew, TO read and to
write.

ANNOUNCEMENT.

The management OF the Cllnch Val
ley News. will, from Feb. LIST, be turn
ed over to my son, Mr.. w, Bland
Leslie. This change in the business Is
made for two reasons, one being that /
shall devote my time and attention
chiefly to the insurance business. 1
shall however, retain an interest In the
paper, and render such help as / may
be able. Whatever OF success the pa
per has attained has been largely due
TO the faithful and untiring efforts OF
Mr.. Bland Leslie and desire that he
shall reap whatever Of benefit there
may be in the business in the future.
III the paper has succeeded under nv
poor management and efforts IL has
been due in no small degree to the in
diligence and cooperation OF the good
people among whom and for whom
L have worked during the last seven
years OF my connection with the bust
ness, and II the new manager receives
the sympathy and cooperation which
his faithfulness and devotion TO dirty
shall merit the paper will continue to
prosper.
The business has enabled me 10
support, after fashion, a large and
growing family, and to keep the wolf
and the sheriff from the door. for all
OF which / thank my friends and a
kind, indulgent and beneficent Provi-
dence.
The aim Of the new management will
be TO Increase as far as possible, the
worth Of the paper TO the community.
and to deserve the patronage Of the
citizens and business men generally OF
this entire section.
Very Respectfully,
j. A. LESLIE.
