In the actual investment market buying is
light, Bond houses find difficulty in placing
their supplies, and about the only important
activity is reported in the speculative issues.
Investors find prices in the greater number OF
instances too high, and they are waiting for an
inevitable decline before buying. There may be
no great downward movement in a year, as
business conditions promising, but there
are some observers who believe that in many
lines the crest OF the wave of prosperity is ap-
proacning, and that material change at no re-
mote period will develop. This idea is not based
on any sign of weakness in the situation, but
on the theory that there is limit TO everything
and that the cycle of prosperity soon must run
ats course. 1t is worth considering

NOBLE DOG
Pretty Exhibition of Canine
 Intelligence

A pretty exhibition of canine saga city was witnessed from the river front recently. CA. . .. -.-' ,.- --+-- ---
 A dog belonging to Carrier Shultz' mail team, and which had evidently ran away from him, tried to reach town by swimming across the open water. On his reaching this side he was so thoroughly benumbed and chilled from his long immersion that he was unable to crawl out on the shore ice. He saw his predicament and began to whiue pitifully. The few who saw 1t could render no assistance as the ice would not bear their weight.
 At this iuncture dog about town named Betsy, who had been an inter ested spectator, ran down swiftly and out onto the shore ice. Betsy tread her way clear out to the thin edge and bracing herself she caught the drown ing runaway by the back of the neck with her teeth; she gave mighty tug and landed him on the ice beside her, Rampant Forum.

HOW SMITH FLAYED TAWNEY.
He is Likened Unto JOab, Who Stabbed
His Friend.

When the statehood bill was under
discussion in the house, Mark Smith
created a sensation by his reply to
Tawney. He was thoroughly indig-
nant and wrought up and his uttran-
ces were dramatic in the extreme:
"Mr. Speaker" he said, sit seems
somewhat tragic to me that the day
of my birth should haye been select
ed as the one day in the year for the
sacrifice of the people in whose de-
voted service 1 have spent most of
my life" Then advancing toward
Tawney and pointing his finger at
him, he Numbered:
when 1 saw the chairman of the
appropriate committee take the
floor in favor of this rule, was re-
minded of another and much more
tragic scene: And Joab said to
Amasa, art thou in health, my
brother?' And Joab took Amasa by
the beard with his right hand to kiss
him, but Amasa took no heed OF the
sword that was in Joab's left hand.
So he smote him there within the
fifth rib, and shed out his bowels on
the ground In the guise of friend
ship he gives us the most savage, the

New MexicO's Bonds.

The Chicago Banker, the organ OF
the conservative banking interests OF
Chicago, in its issue of January 81,
makes this suggestive statement:
ga syndicate has recently been
formed in the west to buy the re-
pudiated bonds of five counties of
New Mexico in anticipation of the
passage of the Arizona-New Mexico
Joint statehood bill"
This ought to be highly interesting
information to the people of Ari-
IONA. 1t is no secret, of course, that
nearly all the counties of New Mex
SEQ have bonds out now in all stages
of decomposition, and the people of
Arizona should understand that if
the Joint state infamy should be per-
petrated the sweat and blood, the
toll and energy, the bone and sinew
of Arizona will be compelled eventu-
ally to pay these New Mexican
token of discarded obligations.
The chief attraction of joint state
hood to the New Mexican politicians
is the opportunity it would give them
to raid the feshpots of Arizona
Citizen.
