the question of difference between Re

Democratic side he remarked: You

In opposition to the proposal to re-
duce the duties on woods and manu-
facturers of wool, Delegate Cameron,
of Arizona, pointed out in the course
of his speech the fact that Arizona,
one of our smallest wards, possessed
sheep population of about one mil
lion. He called attention to the fact
that there are approximately siXty-sev-
Ell million sheep in the United States
and upon that basis the due proper
ton was contained in the territory
which he represents. However, he
directed attention to the fact that there
were more sheep than people in Ari-
IONA while in the rest of the coun-
try the condition was reversed.

palladium SpeciaD

Washington, July 12.-The commit
tee of the Senate having in charge the
hearings in Arizona and New Mexico,
have by vote OF six to three recon-
mended concurrence in the Flood reso-
luton which came over from the House
and which previous to its passage in
that body, had the 0. X. of the Demo
cratic caucus. Just at the present time
Canadian reciprocity has the right of
way, while the farmers freelist and
the wool tariff measure are securing
the principal attention of the law
makers Of the Senate, and therefore
there is little to be added to the story
involving patient waiting on the part
of the people of Arizona and New Mex
leo. Recent expressions on the part
of the President and Attorney General
W1ckersham appear to confirm, be-
yond all doubt, the fears of Repubi-
can leaders who have Interested them
selves mostly in this subject, that the
passage of the statehood measur for
Arizona containing provision for the
recall of Judges will draw veto from
the President. The New Mexico and
Arizona citizens who have been here
have found that their suggestions for
different amendments desired by them,
have proven of no avail, and the only
solace or crumb of comfort that has
been gathered by anyone have been
the amendments made by the Demo-
cratic Committee of the House at the
suggestion of members of their party
in New Mexico. Thefe is reason to be-
lieve that the Democratic lawmakers
in control of the situation, aided by
the progressives. are attempting to get
whatever they can of party advantage
out of the situation.
If ever a Congressman has been
grilled. that man was Representative
Fowler of Illinois. Mr. Mann held him
up to the ridicult of the members one
day recently, by showing that he had
injected into his speech, while writing
and before delivering it, such express
sions as applause" Misunderstanding"
etc. The Republican leader showed
how Mr.. Fowler, in fixing his address
used the expressions, Jesus was Born
in the manger," and John the Baptist
lived on locusts and wild honey"
These statements, according to the
record, created applause" Mr. Fowler
attempted to defend himself, but I'M

cribed the speech, saying that he had

Where Ears Grow Sharp.

A French balloonist has recorded the
clearness with which sounds coming
from the surface of the ground can be
heard Mt high altitude. At the
height Of 5000 feet the ringing Of
horses hoofs on hard road was
clearly audible. At 1000 feet the
splashing sound made by ducks in a
pond was heard. The barking of dogs
and the Growing of cocks could be
heard at seven or eight thousand feet,
These sounds penetrated through a
white floor Of cloud that hid the earth
from sight. says Harpers Weekly. In
the perfect silence Of the air the in
vestigator was startled by what SEEM

was ascertained that this noise was
caused by the stretching Of the ropes
and the yielding Of the silk as the bal

ant state of affairs any more than the
respectable colored citizens themselves
but how can this evil be stamped out
when the men Of other races seek the
association of these scarlet women who
escort them to the nearest alley and
while engaged in acts of lewdness,
they relieve them Of their money and
make good their escape. After this,
these men report the matter to the po-
lice department. admitting that they
were committing an indictable offense
at the time they were robbed.
If these men were prosecuted as any
