Fishsrrnan,a Luck.

Speaking of fishing. .'fishermen's luck" .lucky fishermen" etc, what does ii all mean anyhow? To say a man is lucky fisherman is merely tn admit his superiority as a fisherman over other fishermen The fish are in the water. We all have the came chance to get them. yet some ~lucky fisher. men" always come home with their fish boxes full and the other fellow gets nothing. In the parianee of the fisherman, the word luck" really means knowledge The lucky fish erman," you win find. knows the rock holes where the grouper turks; he knows the channels in and about the patches and passes where the amber jacks and barracuda live; he knows where and how to find and capture the silver mullet for bait: he knows how to bait his hooks for different fish as occasion may require. he knows the style of hook to use for every kind of fish; he is a judge Of what style of fishing to do under certain conditions of wind and weather, and, above all, he Is untiring in his efforts to use all of his knowledge when he is out for ash.-Miami (Fla) Record.

One and a MilIinn

''That's the first time I ever sold a single envelope" said the young wom- an at big stationer's store in the city's center. ''I'Te always sold them in packages, but that gentleman came in with letter in his hand and asked for an envelope, and sold him one for cent. imagine that's the smallest sale that has been made in this estab- lishment since 1t opened. The biggest I ever made happened to be in the en- velope line too. A rather roughly dress ed man came in, asked to see our en- velopes and wanted to know the price by the thousand. l told him. Then he asked the price by the million. I got the figures from our manager, who smiled as he gave them to me. Yet the man ordered a million envelopes, and when we asked for reference he said he would as lief pay tine bill on the spot, which he did from a roll of yellow back bank notes about the size of a loaf of bread. We delivered the en- velopes. but haven't seen the purchaser since. e."-Philadelphia Record.

The clreus and the Arab steed.

Circuses are perhaps more to blame for the misrepresentation of the Arab horse than any other source. A friend of mine owns a circus, and 1 saw his posters few years ago claiming to ex. hibit eighteen or twenty of the only Arabian horses brought to America. He said they were captured with great difficulty and brought to New York by a special permit of the sultan; that they were of the family known in his tory as the eagle feather horses, so much prized in the queen of Sheba's days; that they were snow white, with big markings in their spots of the tip of eagle feathers. We don't have to believe everything we read on the cir GUS posters. In this case am mighty certain these spotted Arabians'' were bought at Albany, Ore. The most pe- culiar part of this spotted horse busi- ness is this, and it is not very strange reason when you know it, that spotted anything is created by a mixture of different races or different breeds, and that likely accounts for the fact that the Arabian desert in all its history has never produced q spotted. or pie bald, horse, possible from the fact that there is never any mixture of blood Homer Davenport in Woman's Home Companion.

May Des Moines succeed in achieving such fame!"
 This paper believes that the gov ernment of municipalities on the plan now gaining in favor will eventually become the universal plan and that as a result politics will be 10 more known in city elections than now in our school elections
 Those who object to having so much power given to a city council should look at the arbitrary power now resting in the school trustees of the country in the matter of employ ing and discharging teachers. As the school board has full control over the public schools. so would the city coun- eli under the Iowa and Texas plan and under the operation of the new city charter law of Arizona, have con trol of the city government.

DIAZ IS HIS OWN RIMAN.

When E. H. Hartman explained tc
 President Diaz the benefits which would come to Mexico from the merg
 CT of all her railways he builded bet ter than he wanted to build. At that
 time Hartman had merged many oi the most important railways of the southwest, and he wanted to anney those on the other side of the Rio
 Grande. This is why he started out
 to teach Diaz the economies and the
 increased efficiency which Mexico's
 roads would gain if all of them were
 placed under one head And he ex. pected to do this in two or three easy
 lessons
 Diaz learend his lessons quicker
 than Hartman expected. And be
 learned so we'll that the merging was
 soon accomplished. He himself did
 the merging. All the important roads
 in Mexico have been brought into a
 great combine. But the head of the combine is Diaz and not Hartman. The Mexican government has come in- to practical control of all the great railways in the republic. The control has just been effected and it promises to be so complete and so permanent that the merging which Diaz has just done will never have to be done over again by Diaz or anybody else.
 Mexico has only about 16,oO0 miles of railway. as compared with 224,000 in the United States. The roads in what is known as the Hartman sys- tenn in the United States have a mile age 50 per cent greater than that os all of Mexico's railways. But the things which come to pass in Mexico have fx;ty, finaIity which nothing ever has in Harriman's countEs. Neither directors nor stockholders ca the one hand nor congress on tks other have anything more than toe nal voice in the doing or undoing oi the pools and mergers cf the roads ia Mexico. The government can promps ly put itself in control of asI the roads which it wants to control, and Diaz is the government. While some Anieri can statesmen have. for year or rwc past, been advocating government. ownership of the railways as an even. snality of the near or remote future Mexico has put gayernmeD. owner ship in operation without much par leying from either railroad men or one-man government, as seen in Mexico, has directness and a swiftness which make the Washington work in that line look oblique and slow.

SAFETY IN
 RAILWAY TRAVEL.

The National Union of Railway Trackmen has filed complaints be fore the railroad commissioners of various states in regard to dangerous conditions the trackmen sometimes contend with. This question has re- gently become more urgent on account of the serious increase in railroad fa- talities. In the last three months of 1906 there were in the United States, according to reports published by the interstate commerce commission. 1739 derailments, with 8 list of 146 persons killed and 1517 injured. Recently the average of derailments and casualties has been far beyond the former fig ures- In four years the deraiiments and tragic list have grown beyond the expansion of railroad systems and the population. Proportionateiy, there are more accidents and greater resulting damage to life and property.
 It is represented by the trackmen that in some cases the rails and road beds are defective, and that the force maintained to watch and repair them is insufficient. They state that more rails are broken on account of i'm proper support by ties than by faulty manufacture in the steel mills. It is further claimed that the patrol of tracks by day and night is not en- forced as thoroughly as in former years. and that government or state inspection of tracks has become a nee essity. As the tracknen are in close touch with roadbeds physically. their statement, it may be assumed, will be carefully weighed by railroad officials. who desire, as much as any class. that tracks, and all branches of the ser vice, shall be safe and efficient.

With three to four thousand peace. able workingmen in the mines of the Warren district and with Sheriff White and Captain Wheeler, of the rangers, within easy call Governor Kibbey need not be alarmed by the affidavit makers who have complained that state of anarchy existed at Low ell. The business men and property owners of Lowell have organized for the purpose of further promoting the welfare of that already hourishing gu. burb of Bisbee. The attempt of the union pickets who have abandoned Bisbee, for Bisbee's good, to create the impression that anyone in that district is disposed to interfere with anyone else who is not trying to create dis satisfaction and disturbance among the men now at work is ridiculous.
