Mr, fiioenlaw will do irood service for the people of Coconino county. It U s.iid that moro Pullmau car passes have been distributed i" con gress during the jireseut hosjIoii tliau over boforo. It is not surprising that people should connect this liberality with the proposal to put legislative re httiutious on the charge made by sleeping and parlor car companies; also with the failure to push those pro posed legislative restrictions. Sitting amid the ruins of lluttc, the Mijor of that town having regained partial uo of himself, has penned a proclamation that hereafter stringent measures will be taken to preveut the btoriug of high explosives within the city limits. In this relation we may call attention to the mau who locked tho stable door after tho horse had bte-i stolen. Also to the president who sent a war ship to Hawaii after the revolu tion bad been put down. The vessel that brought the bloodv tidings from Hawaii bore no uew of Lilluokalani. The deposed and dusky dame was missing, and had been for some days. She was doubtless some where in tho mountains with her gifted sorcerers stewing the eje of mewt and toe of ftog with a view of bringing si c cess to the arms of her faithful adher ents.

With tho develop ment of these resources would eomo equal ratios of increase in values, In voluwo of business, prosperity and wealth.

There is now on deposit In the savings banks of the United States the enormous sum of $1, 747.061, 280, and every dollar of this mouey is lookiug for good Invest ment.

Early yesterday morning tho town of Williams was amused by a terrific explosion. Hasty investigation re vealed tho fact that desperate burglars had resorted to the extremity of (iMmmltliijr the safe in the postofflco building. They probably were not ex port cracksmen, for the explosive made too much racket for ordinary Cleveland purposes of burglary. Tho interior of the safe was not only demolished out the building was badly shattered by the explosion. Tho wholo frout of it was blown out aud the concussion cracked the windows clear across the street. The burglars were never seen, and it is suspected they are running ict. In their hurry to get away, how ever, they did not neglect to plunder the dismantled safe. They secured $500 money, alot of postage stamps and other valuables, but overlooked two registered letters. Tho loss is a heavy ono to Postmaster Farnswnith. Post oflicc Inspector Waterbury is expected from Denver to investigate the case.
