HONEST NAME IN ANY ronsuE
Various Renderlnes of the Coed oio
 ApPeIIation, "John Smith"

John Smith-plain John smith--is not very high sounding; it does not suggest aristocracy: 1t is not the name of any hero fin die-away novels; and yet 1t is good strong and honest Transferred to other languages, p seems to climb the ladder of respects bility. Thus. in Latin, it is Johannes sm.thus: the Italian smooths it oil into Giovan1i Smithi: the Spaniards render 1t Juan Smithus; the Dutch. nan adopts it as Hans Schmidt; the French fietten 1t out into Jean Sheet, and the Russian sneezes and barks

CRAFTSMANSHIP.


 The Right Hon. William Ewart Gladstone will take part in the British budget debate if w. T. Stead and his staff of spooks have their way. At ~Julia's bureau" Mir. Gladstone and Cardinal Manning were recently call ed up in the spirit world by NIT. Stead. Mir. Gladstone said it was ''very dis tasteful" to him to be mixed up again in earthly politics. So Mir Stead had Ito rebuke the late prime minister sharply. Cardinal Manning seems much more alert in his sympathies with the earth movements than you do" said stead-of course through the medium.
 One can imagine any one saying that to the lion of Midlothian in his lifetime, However. the Gladstonian spirit was meek enough. Perhaps it would do him good to once more con tact their throbiing feelings The old statesman's incorporeaI self may have become uugrammatical and slow : enly Of speech in spirit land; or it may be all '.Julia's" fault However,  in the end the orators spirit began to feel again this CpoliticaD fire. :" and there was something like prom ise in his most un-Gladstonian fare well: Miss Julia. the charming and iaffable lady who has this bureau in Ieharge, has promised to inform me when I can use this lady's (the medi- um's) hand. Good morning"

DOUGLAS DISPATCH GROWS VENoMoUs. COL. sTUReEs
 PI EASE WRITE.

The Bisbee Evening Miner, after printing an editorial attack on Col. sturgis and Col. Powell, has some misgivings about the wisdom of such a course, and is beginning to hedge. It begs to assure Col. Sturges of all the warm esteem tenderfoot in Ari- zona journalism can entertain, and also begs to inquire of him if he has allowed himself to be worked for a sucker by designing Democrat. If such is the case, why. of course. Col. Sturges is ali right. and the Bisbee Evening Ast6nisher will be his friend b'gosh. and guard him against the de signs of the wicked Democrats.
 But in order to obtain this friend ship and champonshp of the Bisbee paper. it is necessary for Col. Sturges to write a letter to the Miner. The exact wording of the letter demanded is not given, but it's nature can be guessed. for there is nothing obscure about the hints thrown out in the editorial. In short all Col. Sturgis has to do in order to appease the Miner is to state over his signature that Ralph Cameron is the only big influence in Arizona Republican cir cles and that he (CoL Sturgis) is a back number. Having written this letter and signed it, the colonel should mail it to the Bisbee Miner.
 During the next hundred years while waiting for Col. sturges to write that letter, great many things can. hapen in Arizona politics.

TIE ASSAULT ON MINING PATENTS.

Whatever the people may think of the suits recently filed by Ilnited States Attorney J. L. B. Alexander for the cancellation of patents heretofore issued by the government for mineral claims in warren district certainly the Douglas Dispatch is not warranted in dragging this lawsuit into politics and misstating the facts and trying to mislead the public as to the motive of the United States. So far as the land is concerned, or the greater DOT tion of ie, if it Is not valuable for min eral it is valuable for nothing It is true that a part of the claims attack ed is now included in the Warren ranch. but that would not necessarily mean that mineral had never been found in place
 The Dispatch, always believing about being non-partisan. would have people believe that these suits were brought at the last minute by Attor- ney Alexander for the purpose of help ing himself, politically, or for the pur- pose Of soiling the political escutcheon of Hoval A. Smith, the chairman O. the republican party in Arizona. The facts are that these suits have been threatened for the past two or three years. During that time there have been a number Of special agents sent out by the department of justice to make examination Of complaints lodg- ed by local residents of the Warren district to the effect that patents have been issued to land claimed as pin- eral when as a matter of fact DO min eral had ever been found on the land in question.
 The trial Of thls lawsuit has noth- ing to do with Hovai 4. Smiths polis- fcaI standing or that of the United states attorney The conditions of these entries were under investigation long before Hoval A. smith vas plac- es al she head of the republican party h Arizona. and tre attempt of the nfspasca to discredis Alexander and the government because the suits have been filed shows the measure of pasiI- aaimous journalism that guides Che e.a; department of that paper.

Once when I was going from Mar

wolf followed me all night.

He followed me until we were In

The CIleapness of Life.
Go be eontinued.)

During last year labor in the Uni
ted States lost nearly $4,000 lives in
the course of employment. There
were also about 100000 accidents.
Most industries involve risks, some
greater than others. The accident
rate of electricians is excessive. That
of coal miners is 80 per 1000 in the
United States to 1.29 per 1000 in the
United Kingdom. This proportion
holds among the railroad employees.
We lost $50 per 1000 to Germany's
.9S per 1000. In other words, we
slaughtered on the average 915 more
coal miners than England and 1875
more railroad employees than Ger
many.
Two conditions account for this eX-
cessive death rate that runs through
out all our departments of labor.
First, the reckless Indifference and
carelessness, united with an inherent
dislike to obedience, that characterize
our American workmen. Second, The
unwillingness of employers to install
accident saving devices, and to COM
pei military obedience to preventive
orders
Germany has a permanent exhibit
tion of accident saving devices which
has been productive of great benefit
to life. This feature England is
copying Boston Post.

were plenty, but they never troubled

HIS CHANCE.

Opportunity may come through a
lucky accident, but genius shows in
seeing and using it. The Rt. Hon.
H. H. Asquith, now prime minister
of Great Britain, was bound to dis.
tinguish himself sooner or later, even
though he first became noted through
what seemed mere chance. Mr.. Stead
in the Review of Reviews, tells OF
this piece of "luck" which paved the
way to fortune.
Mr.. Asquith was the junior coun.
sci to Sir Charles Russell, afterward
Lord Chief Justice, as Lord Russell
of Killowen, in the famous Parnell
commission. For nine moths he was
immersed in the intricacies of that
celebrated case. One day, while
snatching a hasty lunch, Sir Charles
told Asquith that he would have to
cross-examine the next witness.
"This is most absurd!" exclaimed
the astonished junior. "Mr. Mac.
Donald is the next witness, and he
course you will cross-examine hfmt"
mo" replied Sir Charles. II am
tired. You will do it we'll enough"
1t was no use to protest. Asquith
was dismayed. He was totally un-
prepared. Macdonald was supposed
to be a shrewd, Intelligent Scotch
man, who would prove more than a
match for the ablest cross-examiner.
When Mr.. Asquith rose in the
court he was at his wits end. BY
good fortune, he put question which
was answered by the witness in su.
premely silly fashion. Mr.. Asquith
saw at once that he could play his
fish with good results. He did SO,
and the process was one of the most
brilliant displays of skill ever wit.
messed at the bar. Poor Macdonald
was turned inside out, and he'll up to
scofing world, from which he
gained the title of Simple Simon"
Mr.. Asquith that day established
reputation throughout the nation.
He had seized his chance and made
use of it.
