CHEERING WORDS
SENT TO THE ORIENT.
Continued from Page ~


Hesitation of the wrath of the divine spook.
The coming of the great comet this year
would be terrifying humanity as a fore
runner of mighty wars and fearful famines
and pestilences.
For thousands of years the supreme duty
of men, as taught in these houses built for
spooks, has not been toward themselves and
their tenants in common of the earth-the
dumb brute world as it has been called
but has been towards these fictitious char
acters called "gods' No wonder the
rights of men, the happiness of mankind,
have oftentimes fallen into decay, and the
happiness of the gods has been reared of
their ruins. No wonder the priests have
been permitted to kill and burn millions
of men and women and children who did
not believe in the favorite of the hour
spook. No wonder a fearful fate has over
taken whole sections of the earth because
of differences of belief about these spooks.
because the rights and the happiness of
man was trampled under foot and the
rights of the gods uplifted. They are
teaching the recognition of these rights
now, and intoxicating in the minds OF the
youth the supreme duties they owe to these
ghosts of the skies.
My letter is getting long, but l will
make a sort of quotation from myself 1t
is from a letter which / wrote last week to
one of the most eminent ministers Of the
gospel in this country, to whom | had oc-
casion to write I complmented his abil-
ity as a preacher, and told him that liked
very many of the moral precepts which he

as saw it, was that he made the supreme

duty of men, which was towards each other,
play second fiddle to that which was false.
In other words, that truth was made to
dance and play the fiddle to falsehood; that
the reality of living men and women was
made to get down and adore the fiction
called god. l told him that 1 liked much
of his preaching and their singing, but that
when | heard them sing and pray and give
thanks, l had said to myself that when
they did so "they prayed to nothing, they
sang to nothing, they appealed to nothing,
and they gave thanks to nothing, for there
was nothing there-not thing" Well,
he did not like it, judging from his answer,
but nevertheless l feel sure that what 1
said was true.
/ am too far away to do you any good
as lawyer, and. besides, your country
would not probably recognize an American
lawyer. If l were to give you and your
friends any advice, believe that l would
advise that by some means you get access
to the Mikado's ear, or to his chief ad-
visers, or to those high up in government,
and lay before him or them the fact that
in former times among the great enight-
ened nations of the West, a fierce battle
was fought for the liberty of speech and
of the press, and for what is called ere
igious liberty" or the liberty of con-
science. I would call his or their atten-
ton to the fact that nation s standing be-
fore the bar of modern civilization is meas
ured very largely by the amount of this
liberty of speech, and of the press and of
conscience, and that Japan could not af-
ford to be in the background. I would
call attention to some of the immortal con-
ficts in which this liberty was failed out.
as it WERE would call his and their at
tention to the great arguments of Lord

Erskine and others of more than a century
ago, by which, with the aid of the English
jury, the liberty of the speech and the
press was established for the benefit of
the English-speaking people the world over.
This liberty is now one of the chief corner
stones of the English constitution, and of
the American as well; and while sometimes
in the heat of passion we may swerve a
little from the path of its light, we still
hold to it as one of the most beneficent
things in what we are pleased to call free
government
Lord Erskine even made speech before
an English jury for the life and liberty of
Thomas Paine, the great American patriot
and author of "The Age of Reason" when
he was in England and made some remarks
which the powers that be took exception to.
If you would get the Mikado to reading the
speeches of Lord Erskine on this subject.
the great master of the English bar in his
day and one of the models for lawyers Of
all time, he, Lord Erskine, might yet plead
for the liberty of your friends with such
eloquence that the doors of the prison
would open. The virtue of those argyll
ments is not run out yet.
Excuse again such a long letter. l get
started sometimes and write away beyond
my proper stopping place.
With great good will for you, and with
the hope that your country will choose
religious liberty and the freedom of speech
and of the press, instead of persecution
and intolerance, and that she will not be-
lie the good name she has been winning in
the West,-that is, that she is the most
progressive and the most enlightened ma
ton in the East am, with great re-
spect.

Sinking Has Been Temporarily Discontinued Pending Install
 Iati0n of New Machinery,

Sinking has been discontinued at the Bisbee Extension property for the present, following installation of ma chinery, which will take place. With in the next few days development of the 400 foot level by means of drifts will be started. This was the state ment yesterday of W NJ CIute, man. ager of the property who is in the city.
 The bottom of the shaft for the present win be marked by 8 depth of 427 feet. At the 40O-foot level station cutting will be commenced within a few days and upon completion of this work two drifts running north and south from the shaft will be com, menced. 1t is expected that the drifts will encounter the main faults of the property within a distance of from 200 to 500 feet from the shaft. These faults at the surface are heavily min, eralized and 1t is expected that when encountered at depth they will show either heavily leaehed material or ore
 Within the next week a sixty horse, power Fairbanks Morse gasoline en sine and a three-doill compressor will be installed in order to push the work as rapidly as possible.
 Cute will leave today for the prop erty to superintend installation of the machinery and the development work at its initiation. As this property is owned almost entirely by local people the progress of the work will be watched with especial interest in Bis bee.

NEW FRANCHISE EXCITES MExICAkS
Sons of Manana Think Great Railroad Boom Due On
 the Border

There is excitement in the very air sou breathe in these days among the residents Of Naeo. Sonora. Applica- tiOn has been made by prominent Mexican for a concession from the state government, to build a plant to light the town by electricity. Ergo at least i've or six new railroad lines are 10 tap the town. Hip, hip, hooray-y-y. The matter appears in 9 very anus ing light to the visiting American as the MexicaIs are so wrought up that they can think, talk, almost eat and sleep on new railroad lines, while their whole attention is given to lay ing out new city blocks in imagination and laying out the terminals.
 Who the man applying for the fran chise Is cannot be learned locally, bul when it is granted him, as doubtless it will be, the number of new roads will be increased at least double the pres ent number in the rumors over the boarder Why should we have cleo tric lights without more railroads, :" said one whimsical resident of the It. tle Mexican city.

 A meeting of the Bisbee players
 Was had last evening and the lineup chosen, men amply capable of takin- care of their several positions being placed or the list. The same is true of the Lowell aggregation, who are manifesting an interest in the sport which would be hard to rival
 Strenuous practice is being indulged in by each side. Yesterday afternoon the Bisbee players put in several hours of hard, rough playing. a scrub game being had with eminently satis- factory results as a tryout of the men. That either side will fail to show the best there is in the players is not to be considertd Tor moment, and Sun days game will doubtless be oi.c pleasing to all spectators. The very novelty Of the sport should serve 70 make il an attraction of merit as q chance to see football as the English play it is not had here often.
 The two teams will lineup for play as follows:
 Bisbee: Goal. Jack Seward; left back, Jack Fisher. captain; right back, Jimmy Madden; half backs, Harry Pearson, Fred James. Ned Johnson: center forwards. Edwin Johnson, Jack Mayors. Sam Fisher, Joe Fisher, ". !. Crown; reserves. Charles Madden, Ed Maddern. Joe Fee; IinCmau, Jockey kerWin.

THE MARKETS.

NEW YORK. Feb. 4.-Professional Limitations in the current stock market restricted the swing of prices to a comparatively narrow range. Condi tions do not represent any significant change of opinions on values from day to day.
 Offering down of prices by bear op orators does not appear to dislodge any considerable amount of liquida ton. The bears find themselves obliged to buy in stocks to cover Bidding uE prices attracts q notable following such as is stimulated by such a movement at times when the specu lative spirit is alert
 Consolidated Gas exerted a depTess ing influence by a drop which estab- lished new low price for the stock
 The suspicion and distrust with which yesterdays allegations of in.- proveneu1s in copper trade was re ceived resulted in a decline of copper industrials. The price of metal vas reduced again here and in London.
 The uncheerful view of iron and steel trade confirmed a feeling Of dis satisfaction with metal trade condl- tions which affected a sentiment t. wards values in general. although with 20 special effect in the steel in Gusi rials. Cheaper railroad stocks again supplied the sustaining points. Bonds are irregular.

This was The statement made by Cashier NJ J. Cunningham. of the Bank of Bisbee yesterday when questioned about the so-called tight" money market.
 Never fn the history of Bisbee has it been easier to borrow from the tanks than at present" said Mfr, Gun uiugham. "TfEs collateral must be mdeniably good and when it Is tn, money will come.
