SCRAPS FROM THE ARIZONA KICKER.

Not Our Mak. — The boys over in Clinch Valley sent us word the other day that they had hung our agricultural editor and wanted to know what should be done with the body. We replied that our agricultural man was at that very moment tatting in the sanctum of Tbe Kicker and writing a column entitled, ' Will the Coming Cow make Use of the Cactus for Fodder?' The boys had made a mistake. We are not quite certain who their victim was, but we suspect that be was a naturalist from Chicago who wrote us about four weeks ago that he was heading this way.

The Clinch Valley boy* have beer down on us ever since our winning mule cleaned them out of 75dois cash on a mile dash, and they no doubt thought they had a rich joke on us when they run down the tenderfoot. Our agricultural editor doesn't know any too much, but be never strays outside tbe town.

They Must Go. — Wben the Mayor of this towa ( who is ourself ) returned to bis office after Jnocbeon the other day he found Grizzly Bill in pop session. G. Bill had been boastto some of the boys that he proposed to run the Mayor's, office thereafter. We courteously invited him to vacate, but he promptly refused, and called us a one-horse Mayor of a one-horse town. The doctors predicted yesterday that he would die as the sun went down, but he is still living as we go to press, and may possibly pull through. If he dies we shall follow our usual course acd bury him in our private graveyard and toot all expenses. If he lives we shall advise him to get out of this town as soon as he can walk. Tbe boys die hard bat they must go. As Mayor we have a certain dignity to maintain, and shall maintaia it at any cost. Our offichl office is not a poker room nor a palooc. As editor of The Kicker Grizzly Bill and the rest of the gang can facetiously poke us in the ribs and smash our bat over our eyes, but as Mayor we shall permit no undue familiarity.
