You Can't Tell

You can't always tell, says an exchange. what will happen. For instance, there is a story of a man who determined to commit suicide He went to the store and bought a rope, a can of coal oil, a box of matches, dose of arsenic and re- volver. He went down to the river and pushed the boat from the shore and waded to where a limb hung over, saturated his clothing with the coal oil, lighted a match and set fire to his clothing, took dose of arsenic, put the muzzle of the re- volver to his temple, pushed the boat from under him and pulled the trigger. But the bullet glanced and cut the rope above him and he fell kerfop into the river; the water put the fire out and he got strangled and coughed up the arsenic. He rose and waded out and declared himself a candidate for the legisla- ture on the reform ticket.

A Glorious Opportunity

We note in our news columns that bill has been introduced in the New Mexico legislature in pos ing a tax of $5 on each drinker of alcoholic liquors, says the Tucson Citizen. It's a wonder this great idea has not struck some of our wise and learned solons at Phoenix. Think of the amendments and meanderings and legislative possi- 5ilities of such a bill. Wolfe of Maricopa could advocate a tag on boozers such as purps wear. Pace of Graham, treasury watch dog, could advocate an inspector of breaths to decide on who should pay the tax. The tax itself might be a graduated one-say $2 for 2 beer drinker, $5 for a whisky con- sumer and $1O for those who take their "licker" mixed. Think of the broadsides of oratory such bill would bring forthl What glorious opportunity! Can it be that the statemen at Phoenix will let it go untouched2

Can't Find Elm in Williams

In every town you find some men who always croak and growl; their chief amusement seems to be to snarl and whine and howl. Of course they do not prosper we'll such people seldom do--and SO they strive to make themselves and all their neighbors blue. If strangers come these men will try to get them off alone, and sing a song of discontent in the most doleful tone; will tell them how the town is dead and almost passed away, and hasn't any enterprise that half begins to pay; how real estate is very low and taxes very high, and every scheme to help the town is sure to wane and die.
 The good book says a day will come when all must pass away, and swap for wings and golden harps this tenement of clay; the earth will burn with fervent heat, the sun go out in gloom. and every living, breathing thing shall find real tomb. When that time comes the croaker who knocks against his town-and tries to drive good men away and break their efforts down will be declared a victim for a special dose of fame-ten thousand years, and then be found a-roast- ing just the same.
 Meantime the energetic man who labors for his town, who always works to build it up instead of tear ing down. will ride from earth to heaven in a Pullman palace car, and will dwell in peace forever where the first class angels are.
