Denver Markets.

DENVER UNION STOCK YARDS.
Feb. 20. Receipts of cattle last
week were very good and the
market was active as there was
good demand. Prices were
lower early in the week but later
about all the loss was regained
and prices at the close We're not
much different from a week ago.
Beef steers were active and sold
well. A bunch of corn feds from
Western Nebraska brought S5.0
and a bunch of pulp fed steers
from Northern Colorado sold at
$500, the highest price paid here
for this class of stuff this year.
Other steers went at S4.25 to
$3.50. Cows were in good de-
mand also, load of fancy pulp
feds bringing $3.50 the high
price for pulp fed cows this year.
Other cows sold at $3.50 to SO. S5
with bulk of good killers at 1885
to S3.75. Bulls sold at S2.65 to
S3.25, about steady and good
light weight veals at $500 to
$500. Feeder and stocker de-
mand good but few here and
trade quiet. Prices were lower
early in the week but at the
close most of the decline had
been regained, though the mar
ket is still slightly lower than a
week ago. Bulk of fair to good
steers offered sold at S4.00 to
S4.35 but choice stuff would have
brought more. Today's supply
$500 head. Cows strong to 10c
higher, steers weak.
Hog supply $500 head. The
demand was not heavy as pack
ers were pretty well loaded up.
All offerings however, found sale
at good prices, bulk of hogs now
bringing S4. Is to "a. 20. Receipts
were very heavy at all markets.

c. N. Thomas, 6 battle-scarred veteran of the Republican party in Cochise county, addresses a letter to the Review this morning wherein he seeks to discourage the effort now being made in certain quarters to pro vide another Republican newspaper for Bisbee. According to the tenor of MT. Thomas communication we infer that the newspaper enterprise which he would discourage is being promoted by those who are not of the same Republican afiiation that he is. If this be true, then Mir. Thomas should wish his political enemies no greater harm than their embarkation in the enterprise of promoting anotRer news paper here. There is nothing so weakening to a political junta as a newspaper which is to be the private organ of the owners. A newspaper which has no other mission than the exploitation of a particular faction of a political party is financial load to those who carry it. Certainly. Bisbee does not now offer business induce ments for another newspaper enter prise. The business men of this city have been liberal in their support of the press, but there is limit to the burden which they will be willing to carry, aud the Review would advise those contemplating embarking in the business of publishing another news paper to put only their surplus cash into it, which the loss of will not later become embarrassing.

 Los Angeles has her full quota of desperate lives. and the painful rec ord of our courts shows they are not all in fhe so-called underworld. The yabid itching for unearned wealth; the indecent follies of fast living; the soul-killing vices of inordinate ap- pctiles; the weakening and in many cases the effacement of home ties and restrsints-all tend to bring their victims to the verge. and often over the line of self-murder or insanity. The men who knew them in the riot ous day of their downfall, ignore them in the day of humiliation and want. and they are veritable pariahs to the people as a whole. Business men detest them; wiser men despise them. and the officers of the law mark them for certain punishment

 The men who are now preaching the gospel of righteousness on our streets are true apostles of the Nag arene. and no man may measure all the good they are doing. but all men will wish for them the fullest meas ure of success in their self-imposed labors and will hail their earnest con cern for weaker men as a living proof that the gospel of Calvary does save men from their lower selves.

The financial doctors of the coun- try are far apart in their diagnosis
 of the present financial ills from
 which the country has recently been
 suffering. Three bills have made their appearance in the present con gross, each providing for the amend ment of the banking laws of the
 country and providing for extreme cases of stringency Senator Aldrich
 has introduced a bill in the senate, Mr. Fowler has one in the house, and the American Bankers association will, in a few days, have the measure recommended by the bankers of the country presented in both houses. All of these measures differ widely in proposing remedies or means for averting such financial stringencies as we have just passed through. This paper took occasion to remark sever al weeks ago that congress could do but little to cure the conditions which led to the financial slump, except by repeating the laws which had result ed in few men amassing the bulk of the money of the country and pass ing others which will put every busi- ness man of the country on an abso- lutely equal footing so far as the gov ernment is concerned It is now known that the moLey turned over to tke banks by the government

ASSIGNING ENGINES.

c. R. Reeves, the Fl Paso member been in Douglas for several days at tending the session of the committee which has been in conference with Superintendent King and Master Me chanic Snyder over the work of assign ing the idle Douglas engineers and firemen to the eastern division. He says that the eastern division of the road is now extremely busy and act ually needing men to handle the Cal ifornia fruit business. Ten of the younger engineers in seniority and five of the firemen, who have been idle here for some time, have been trans ferred to that division and Mir. Reeves says he thinks there will be at least six weeks and perhaps two months work for them. At the end of that time he hopes that the business over the western division will have increas- ed sufficiently for them to return to their headquarters in Douglas and take their former positions.
 Five or six Douglas fireman, who have been out of work for soma time, will leave in few days for Fl Paso, where they will enter the service on the eastern division. c. E. Bumpus and R. E. Prickett have already gone. The others will leave in day or two. The ten engineers who were transferred to engines on the eastern division, will leave in a few days. The additional twenty new locomotives recently re ceived for use on the eastern division, nas increased the demand for men ana those who have been idle in Douglas on account of the decrease in general business are now being put to work.
 The position of general yardmaster of the Fl Paso & Southwestern termi- nal yards, which has been vacant for the past month, has now been filled by the. promotion of Engine Foreman Ben Tolson. MT Tolson has been in the employ of the road for about six years.-Douglas Dispatch.

Having published the interview Of Hon. R. E. Morris several days ago wherein he strongly contended that the Arizona Republicans should send an uninstructed delegation to the na- tional convention, we today publish a lengthy statement of the views of Governor Kibbey, giving his views on national politics. The governor strong ly urges that it is the duty of the Republicans of Arizona to send a dele gation instructed for Secretary Taft. It is the desire of the Review to give all sides of the Republican fight in Arizona. which promises to be more interesting as it proceeds.

APPLIED CHRISTIANITY.
(Los Angeles Herald

(Los Angeles Herald
 When John Wesley, an ordained priest of the Anglican church. with his confreres. set their faces against the woridiness within that commun- ion early in the. eighteenth century the one great help for the decaylng church was found to be the preach ing of the gospel to the people di- reetly. or what is termed stree' preaching.
 Defying all authority of king ane were for Bryan. but in case Bryan bishop, as Luther earlier defied the head of the Roman church. this band of few spiritually minded men gave themselves to gaining the ear of the common people. and so saved the British nation from its viler self.
 In the face of persecution from those in authority. and personal yio- ience from those they sought to help: buffeted by mobs of ruffians and hunt ed from town to town. they perse- vered in the courageous work. the results of which forced the nation to a sense of shame and rent the state church in all parts of the land
 The indomitable will. wisdom and perseverance of this handful of godly men leavened the masses of the peo- pie and led to revival of true Chris tianity. that has grown with the pass ing years, and has signalIy blessed all humanity. In civilization it brought sense of the presence of God in human affairs and it sent apostles to the heathen to teach them the story of Calvary
 The condition of the yeomanry or common people of England at the time of wesley's advent was pitiful. Van Dieman's Land and Botany bay were the goals of thousands of lives. driven to crime in self-defense against the ruling and brutal higher classes, and the lash and tresdmill were the common arguments of au- thority. The ruling powers, another name for the land owners and mon eyed men made right of might in the common cause of expressing the yeomanry, and Christianity was in eclipse, as dark as in the days of the inquisition.
 By degrees, slowly. and over tor tuous road the sweet altruistic les sons of Scripture were sown in the hearts of men, and true Christian life kept pace with advancing civiliza- tion. Millions of money have been expended to give the Bible to all who would read it, and as a direct result of the early street preaching of these real heroes the people of the twen- tieth century are saved from the fate of the goddess civilization which be- fell Rome just before the dawn of the Christian era.
 In like manner the leayen of the street preaching of spiritually mind ed men has wrought in the crowded and poisoned depths of all great cities of America, resulting in bringing home to all men a lively sense of re- sponsibility for others and keeping trimmed and burning the one divine light T in human life-unselfishness.
