RALEIGH, JANUARY 16. 1891.
Stop It.
It is in order for the legislature to
stop this business of making the rail
road companies a present of a certain
amount of convict labor. The thing
has gone far enough. Put a ball and
chain on it so that it can't get out of
sight. There is no more reason why
a railroad should be given convicts to
work its line than that the name gen
tlemen in striped suits should be sent
down here to turn our cylinder press.
The railroad company that can't pay
Its way now a days had best stay at

THT ARIZONA KICKER.
Eastern Journalists Have to
Get Acclimated.
In its last issue, which was three
days late, owing to circumstance be
low narrated, the Arizona Kicker
says :
One more Unfortunate The other
week a tenderfoot who said he had
been a reporter on the Pittsburg
Chronicle, came along and struck us
for a (job, and we set him to work
Monday on the agricultural depart
ment of the paper. We warned him
against this strange country, and he
must not attempt to handle anything
until he first asked the name of it.
After two or three hours he got the
swell head and went out to chin with
the boys, and that afternoon we bur
ied him. He had heard tell of jack
rabbits, but had never seen one, and
somebody made him believe that Col.
Moore's mule, whicli was tied near
the postoffice, was one of the gentle
creatures of the plains. He was look'
ingto see if the rabbit's feet were
webbed when the calamity came.
"Mortum bum," which is Latin for "he
didn't know it was loaded," and
we have his latch key, five cents in
money, and a summer necktie, which
we will forward to his friends on re
quest. Told Him So Three months ago,
when a young man who had stuck
type for 25 cents per M on a Cleve
land paper, and had knocked off be
cause he couldn't agree with the edi
torial policy of the paper, came out
here to establish a plant and grow
"wc ol on his back, we sat down and
t liked to him like a brother. There's
nothing mean about us. We don't
want the earth. We have a great
weekly newspaper, a butcher shop,
grocery, saddlery, shoe shop, milli
nery store and signal service bureau
all under one roof, and we don't care
how many other enterprises are es
tablished in this wild West.
This young man planned to start a
weekly over at Pedro valley, and we
warned him to pitch into the Czar of
Russia and go light on the boys at
home. That's the safe policy, while
learning to shoot right and left hand
ed. He didn't seem to take kindly to
our advice, and our last words, as we
lent him sixteen letters out of our
f bnt of job type, were to prepare for
the uphills and downhills of the here
after. The sequel proves that we
were correct. He issued one edition
JABBED HIS HOME SUBSCRIBERS
and now he sleeps on lot No. 17, sec
tion 21; of Tower's subdivision of the
2000 acre tract.. He died a victim to
the' climate, assisted by willing hands.
Took a Walk Any particular lack
of interest on our editorial page this
week must be laid to a little incident
which occurred Tuesday afternoon.
A cross-eyed pressman, who was work
ing his way from Ban Francisco to
Boston to see his mother die, had put
in a couple of weeks with us as liter
ary editor. He teemed a prudent,
level-headed fellow, and we passed in
his copy without reading it. What
did he do bat ring in a little para
graph to the effect that four aces al
ways beat a royal flush, no matter
what old liar held to the contrary.
Colonel Johnson, who is Arizona au
thority on ioker, came around to
look at our man and ask where and
how we had captured him, and he had
scarcely stepped inside the office when
the pressman lost his ner . e and be
gan to shoot.
What was the Colonel's gain was
our loss. We had a fingr split by a
bullet, the devil got a rake across his
skull and the foreman now carries his
arm in a sling. The Colonel, it is
needless to say, was untouched.
When our young man got through
shooting at everybody except the
man he wanted to hit, we assisted to
take him out, head him for the cactus
plantation and start him off. He
won't see his mother die not if he
keeps on in that direction. Tender
foots sailing in this direclion should
bear in mind that our customs, ways
and habits are somewhat different
from those of Boeten and New York,
and on arriving in this locality they
should expect to be advised and post
ed by citizens who can exhibit nine
graves in their private burying
grounds.
The Illinois World's Fair Exhibit.
The exhibit of Illinois at the
World's Pair will bo housed in an im
posing structure. The State Board
of Agriculture has agreed on the
plans and located the site. The buil 1
ing will be two stories in height, with
floor space of 100,000 square feet and
observation towers 145 feet high.
Virginia to Have an Exposition.
Richmond, Va., Jan. 15. The Vir
ginia Agricultural and Mechanical
Society, at its meeting held today,
decided to hold a State Fair here
next fall, and a grand State Expo
sition one year later. It was consid
ered that it would take at least a
year to prepare for such an exposition
as is desired.
The far West has become so thickly
settled.highly civilized and thorough
ly policed that the road agents have
found it dangerous to work out there,
and have transferred their field of op
erations in the wilds of Chicago. The
mail wagons there offer convenient
and profitable means of raising stakes.
A haul of $3,000 was made in one job
recently.
A speaker at an antitobacco meet
ing in Washington the other day
frankly admitted that under certain
circumstances the use of tobacco re
sulted in the saving of life. This
caused great consternation in the
meeting, until she for it was a wo
manexplained her remark by say
ing that cannibals will, under no
circumstances, eat a missionary who
is a tobacco user.
Near Walker, Vernon County, Mo.,
a miner excavated a petrified foot
twenty three inches long and twenty
inches around the instep, supposed to
be that of a giant. The miner has
been offered $150 for it, but declines
the offer.

GOLD IN GEORGIA.
The renuut State Said to Con
tain the ltiehest 311 net
in the World.
Nashvillk, Teunesfsfe. Colonel
Dave A Quino, internal revenue col
lector, returned recently from Lump-
kins county, Ga. where he had been
attracted by reports of n discovery of
gold.
"It seems to me," he says, "one of
the 6trangeet.thiog in history that
men will go to Colorado, California,
Montana, Idaho and other places,
away out of all creation, and invest
their millions in mines whn l iht at
Dahlonega, Ga , are the richest gold
fields in the world There are solid
hills of gold quartz, entire hills min
eralized, where the surface dii-t, every
pound of it, will pay well. There are
mines being worked there that have
made dozens of Eastern men rich.
They have been coining money right
along, and they are perfectly content
that no one else should come in and
share the good thing with them.
There are gold initios that have
been prospected that :iiv as good, if
not better, than those being worked,
and all in the world necessary is the
capital to put in the machinery and
work them. It is couiiug. Miners and
moneyed men of the West have found
it out. I met men there from Cali"
fornia, Colorado and Montana, and
who had mined all over the West,
and they are buying claims and order
ing machinery. The fact ia that large
Tennessee companies have organized
one capitalized at $3,000,000, and
one for $10,000,000, aud for five months
they have had a responsible man
quietly gathering up mines aud min
ing lands. They have secured about
thirty mines and over 2,000 acres of
land."
