The Growth Of Onr Cities.

From the latest census bulletins 1t

more than 100000, eighteen with
more than 100000 and twenty-eight
with more than 100000. The aggre-
gate population of these twenty-eight
reaches the enormous total of IT,
4S2,e47. 4
There are an even fifty cities OF
more than 100000 population, with
a totol of 2O,301, 1888; those having
more than $4,000 number seventy
two. with an aggregate Of 22,3lS,-
018; those of more than $4,000 num-
Der 106, with total Of 24,377, 500,
and those exceeding $4,000 number
229, as already mentioned, with 2
total population of 2S,526,438, or APP

Arizona was made by Nature in a
frivolous and contradictory mood a
few million years ago, just to show
man, when he arrived what she
could do when she felt like il. And
man has admitted that in the case
of Arizona she has done aplenty.
She has made rivers which are dusty
on top and has put most of the
drinking water in the state a mile
underground She has made rod,
yellow and blue deserts and noun
tains which rise 0,000 feet high
without any foothills or prelimin-
aries. She made beautiful valleys
and forgot TO sweep the 1000 ton
moulders out OF them when she fin
ished. She made the mesas. which
started out 10 become mountains,
but became tired at the first story,
and which have vast Nat tops level
ed off by a celestial iackplane She
made the ella monster, whose looks
are almost fatal. She made the
Grand Canyon, in which she oepned
the earth's side for $50 miles aud
laid bare its granite ribs. And
lastly she covered the whole exhibit
tion with a climate lin which bugs
and microbes cannot live, aud in
which a man has to have about 80
years practice in order TO die with
out assistance.

The Vice Presidency.

II il q gratifying sign that there
are a few ayowed candidates for the
tail of the national ticket. Usually
the place goes begging or Is sought
only by fifth raters. In other words,
nobody wants the vice presidency
that anybody else wants 10 have it.
Some one has described il as fifth
wheel on the national wagon. Yet
eight vice presidents have afterward
become presidents-John Adams,
Jefferson and Van Buren, by election;
Tyler, Fillmore, Johnson and Arthur
by succession, and Roosevelt by both
succession and election.
Since we have had but twenty-six
presidents all told. this is practically
one out of three That is, vice
president stands one chance in
three Of filling the higher office.
Thus the occupant of the place
should be distinctly of presidential
caliber. The same care should be
exercised in choosing the tail of the
ticket as the head.
The chief obstacle in the way is
that the vice presidency has been re-
garded as a joke. Everybody has
had fun with it. 1t has held a proud
place by the side of the mother-in-
law as the chief reliance of the para
graphers. 1t has been an honorary
position without honor, Its chief
duties have been to preside over the
senate and to wait around for an
other mans shoes, which the other
man generally insisted on wearing
himself. Another function OF the
vice presidency has been that of a
convenient shelf on which to place
leaders the politicians did not want.
This is all wrong The vice presl-
dent is a possible president of the
United States, and this fact SHOULD
be the only one considered in nomi4
mating candidates.
