It was merely coincidental that the
band struck up on "God Save the
Queen" when W. C, P. Breckenridge
announced his intention of spending
the winter in Europe Eddy Current.
El PASO is in a fair way to pet her
proposed international dam, notwith
standing two enormous obstacles
which Laredo would not have to en
counter in such an enterprise, viz:
First, not having the water and being
forced to provide such an immense re
servoir as to catch and hold flood
waters; Second, being under the ne
cessity of spending' about a half mil
lion dollars in removing two railroad
tracks: Yet the benefits will far more
than justify the expenditure and they
know it; but the benefits could not
possibly be greater there than here,
and it is safe to say that the expense
here would not exceed one-third, of the
cost there. Surely this is inducement
enough for the people of the two Lare
dos to move in the matter of a general
irrigating system by means of an inter
national dam. Laredo Times.
SICK OF SILVER.
It is not often that Hon. Tom Wat
son, late brevet candidate for vice
president, says anything worth con
sidering; but millions of people will
indorse his statement that the public
is weary of being "bombarded with
books and speeches and pamphlets
about silver." The thing was tiresome
enough when there was a campaign in
progress and a vote to be taken, but
now that the election is over and the
question decided, indulgence has ceased
to be even a shadow of a virtue. There
is no thirst for information upon the
subject, and still less desire for the sort
of vociferation that is simply a repeti
tion of the stuff aerainst which an over
whelming majority was polled in
November.
There is nothing more certain about
our form of government than the fact
that it provides elections for the pur
pose of settling things. The recent
emphatic verdict in favor of the gold
standard was not contingent or tempo
rary, but absolute and very likely for
ever. It means that the people, after
fully and patriotically considering the
matter, had come to the conclusion that
free silver was a fraud and a reproach,
and that they did not want to hear any
more about it. That is the way they
feel today. Their choice has been
made, and their minds are fixed upon
affairs of practical interest and import
ance. Thay are anxious to get to work,
to increase their business, -to kindle
fires in idle furnaces, to bring good
times back again. It is easy to under
stand, therefore, that this prolonged
and monotonous bowling with regard
to silver is a burden and a soreness of
flesh to them. The thing that they
desire above all else in a political
respect is deliverance from a kind of
elocution that is out of date and entire
ly useless. In short, they want the 16
to 1 epouters to shut up and go otf
somewhere out of sight. But for this
lingering manifestation of vocal dropsy
and insufferable folly, they would be
contented and happy. The general
situation is satisfactory to them, and
only this one annoyance exists to pre
vent them from going ahead in a
cheerful and hopeful way to make the
most of their opportunities. Surely
they have a right to insist that those
who are thus disturbing their peace
and hindering their welfare shall sub
side and let them alone. Globe Dem
ocrat. Tn an interesting editorial, says the
Mexican Herald, El Mundo inquires
why marriages are not more frequent
among Americans and Mexicans. It
remarks that Spaniards, Frenchmen
and Germans constantly intermarriage
with the people of this country, but
that unions between the young people
of the twe great American republics
are of rare occurrence. The Mundo
seems to be exaggerating a little, for
some very distinguished Mexicans, in
cluding the minister of foreieu affair?,
have American wives. Kl Mundo
attributes the iufrequency of interna
tional marriages to several causes; in
the first place to the difference of
language, which opposes a barrier to
intimate intercourse. "The Mexican
who cannot speak cannot feel, and he
soon becomes discouraged in making
love to a woman to whom he cannot
speak and who cannot respond to his
ardent rhapsodies." The chief reason,
however, says El Mundo, is to be
sought in the difference of character,
education, modes of thought, customs,
etc. In the course of its article El
Mundo does justice, but not more than
justice, to the sweetness of the char
acter of the Mexican woman, and
concludes by saying that, the infrequen
cy of unions between Americans and
Mexicans is perhaps to ba deplored, for
from the union of the two races might
arise a type uniting the best features
of the Latin and Anglo-Saxon character.
Mines and ."lining.
The Commonwealth Miningcompany
at IVarec, Cochise county, employs
sixty men and ships to the Pueblo
smelters three to four carloads of ore
per day. The rock is rich in gold and
silver, yielding $100 per ton.
It is beHeved the copper production
of the United Stateo for 1S0 will
amount to 2'J.",000 trross tons. The
exports will bo about 1 JO, COO tons,
leaving 85,000 tous for home consump
tion. The home consumption last year
amounted to 120,000 tons
Spokane Falls has a mining incorpo
ration known as the Woman's North
west Mining and Investment comjany,
which is capitalized for $2,000,000. The
women etpect to handle mining prop
erty in British Columbia, and as long
as possible will exclude men from the
affairs of the. company.
A Mr. Eddy has recently arrived in
Oregon from Cook's Inlet, Alaska,
where he spent last winter in company
with thirty others. lie states that
about 200 men will winter this year in
the Inlet, and he believes the district
will develop into a good one. There
are six hydraulic plants now in oper
ation and all are paying.
The future of Pearce camp seems
now assured. A well authenticated
report says that a mill is to be erected
at the mine in the spring. Good ore
bodies are beiDg opened up in the
Johnson-Fitts mine and other prospects
in the vicinity, and valuable discover
ies have lately been made at South
Pass. Numerous prospectors are at
work along the Dragoon range and the
inquiry for good copper or gold mines
continues active. Valley News.
SANTA KIT A.
More energy is being displayed here
now, than for years. About forty men
are rigiarly employed in sorting
dumps, jigging and exploring new ore
bodies of copper near the surface. The
old time vigor is being restored, and
the once famous copper camp will in all
probability take on a Den? lease of life.
The mines from which the Spanish
conquerors realized millions and from
which millions are yet to be extracted,
will in the near future resume a reeord
long forgotten, but never entirely lost.
COPPER FLATS
Contrary to expectat:ons,the work on
the company buildings has been finish
ed and advices recently received are to
the purport that when the new smelt
er is set up lively times may be expect
ed in this long overworked camp. The
ores are equal to any and superior to
most copper camps in the southwest,
and as the company understands its
business, and has unlimited capital,
there is no reason why the new camp
should not equal, if not surpass, its
more formidable antagonists in the
copper field. The ore is of much higher
grade and exists in greater quantity
than in anv camp in the west with the
possible exception of Jerome in Arizo
na. Negotiations have bten pending for
some time pat by a syndicate of
wealthy mining meu for a transfer of
the valuable Johnson-Fitz claims in
Pearce district and has been culminat
ed in the formation of the Gold Cliff
Mininar company,capitalized for $1,000
000. Backed with cash and unlimited
means, this property is destined to
become quite a factor in the mining
world and certainly is one of great
importance to Pearce aDd Cochise
county.
An idea of the richness of some of
the copper mines of Michigan may be
gained from the fact that they have
thus far paid their owners dividends of
fully 870,000,000. The dividends of $25
a share just declared by the Calumet &
Hecia Copper Mining company for the
current year is especially Doteworthy
because it is the greatest dividend ever
paid by this remarkable property.
There are 100,000 shares so that the
total sum distributed among the share
holders was $2,000,000. When it is
considered that the original value of
all these shares was jut the last amount
mentioned, the tremendous earning
powers of the property will be ap
preciated. The sellin? value of the
stock is about thirteen times its par
value.
Meetings on Sunday.
Justice Iteagan, of the New York
supreme court, denies the application
of August flakehiloth, a Hebrew
religious society for articles of incoro
poration because: "The time of
holding its annual meetings is to be on
each and every second Sunday of
January of every year."'
The justice says: "The question is
noi whether such meetings on Sun
day are illegal, but whether they
should bj approved by a judge of the
supreme court. A thing may be law
ful and ytt not laudable.
"As justice of the supreme court,"
he continued, "I may not approve that
which the immemorial and uniform
policy of the state condemns. Because
the holding of a corporate meeting on
Sunday is contrary to the public policy
of the state, if not to the letter of its
laws, I decline to approve this
certificate. "
Gamin? on Eootbsll.
The ;New York World says: It is
possible that the last big football game
has been played in New York. Athletes
in the college are opposed to Yale and
Princeton meeting here next year. C.
C. Cuyler. and other members of the
Princeton team have announced them
selves as opposed to the playing of more
games in New York.
The ohj ction to the games is the
speculation, immense crowds and the
failure of nrany students to get tickets.
The principal feature that is objection
able to the games are the gambling
results. It is believed that if the games
were played on the college grounds all
these disagreeable features would be
eliminated.
The company is busily engage! in
repairing the old break in the canal at
Dark canyon. Engineer Taylor has a
j force of fifteen men and ten teams at
work, grading and leveling, prepara
I tory to constructing the new spillway.
; It will be considerably larger than the
; former one, having a wasteway of .'100
feet, instead of 200 It will Im con
j strutted of piling, earth and ce n- nf,
: and will req u ire thirty days to i o u pie to
the work Eddy Argus.
W. J. Spear, formerly city editor of
the Republican, but the la-it two years
with the Tucson Star, has resigned
the latter position and yesterday he ar
rived in Phoenix, lie will spjnd some
time here, but intends to return to St.
Joseph, Mo., and resume work on a

Do you remember tbe beautiful Lil
lie Curtis, of the ''14!)2'' company?
While she had only a minor part in
that lively play, she was voted the
loveliest girl on the stage. Engaging
and witty, her long black hair, oval
face, sparkling eyes and lithe figure
formed one of the attractions at the
play. Down in a ward at Bellevue
Hospital a careworn creature with
deeply-lined face and careworn eyes is
beseeching the doctors to give her one
drink only one. Of all her former
beauties she possesses but one, her
magnificent head of hair. She is a
living monument to an utter lack of
sense N. Y. Correspondence.
Electric Bitters.
Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more
generally needed, when the languid
exhausted feeling prevails, when the
liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need of a tonic and alternative is felt.
A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers. No medicine will act
more surely iu counteracting and free
ing the system from the malarial
poison. Headache, indigestion, con

Christmas at the AYhi'e House.
Christmas was celebrated in a joyous
manner at the White House. The
children, not only of the president, but
of the entire cabinet circle, held high
carnival in the White House library.
A noble fir tree stood in the center of
the big semi-circular room so tall that
it touched the lofty ceiling and so thick
ani broad that it almost tilled the large
room. Until late iu the night man'
willing hands had worked under Mrs.
Cleveland's direction in beautifyng
this Christmas tree and as it stood next
morninur when the bright sun of Christ
mas day shone upon its tinsel and gilt
ends sparkling in the artificial snow,
each pendant icicle betrayed some
pretty toy or knickknack concealed in
the thick foliage. It was a tree worthy
of the White House.
The children were early awake, up,
indeed, even before most of the ser
vants, and were soon floating over the
presents that lay piled up around the
foot of the tree, and over the contents
of their stockings, which were gen
erously tilled by Santa C'laus.
Major C. T. Picton is manager of the

"I have used it myself and in my family
for several years, and take pleasure in
sayingthatl consider it an infallible
cure for diarrhoea and dysentery. 1
always recommend it, and have frequ
ently administered it to my guests in
the hotel, and in every case it has prov
en itself worthy of unqualified endorse
