THE opponents oE the system of ir- rigation display q woeiul ignorance of the history of the world in respect to its importance and advantages in the welfare and prosperity of the country and if they could be persuaded to thoroughly study the subject they would surely experience a change of sen nent. The fact that our country embraces vast area of arabic lands that are denied the blessings of a gen eral and timely rainfall sufficient to produce crops with reasonable de- gree of certainty, renders careful study of the subject of the utmost i'm portance and value to the whole na- tien, and it is one that demands the consideration of the government in q practical and liberal manner. Public protection has been extended many of the industrial enterprises of our coun- try, with extremely beneficial results; railroads and other semi-public i'm provements have enjoyed the bounty of the government and its wisdom is unquestioned. The basis of our na- tional prosperity-the tillage of the soil--has, in strange contrast, been entirely neglected, and yet upon its success depends the prosperity of the whole country. Take from the lands of the east their usual amount of rain
 fall and the calamity of famine will be the result Even now the occasional seasons of drouth entail hardships up on rural communities whose disasters reach every avenue of commerce and distress the wage workers of every calling. Without rainfall the best farming lands of the east would soon become desert wastes like those of the ard belt of the west whose, only want is a supply of water. Nature has made it possible for man to reclaim these arid lands and to make them wonderfully valuable and productive, but it re luires ctfo o-ts beyond any in dividual capacity 10 supplement this evident design of Him who fashioned the world in pursuance of most wise plan. An economic method in hus- banding and distributing the waters of the arid region will open vast field for the rapidly increasing population of the east and create for them homes capable of supporting them not only in comfort but in luxury, for it is a well settled fact that forty acres of ir- rigated land possesses greater pro ductive capacity than one hundred and sixty acres dependent upon the natural rainfall. The valley of the Gila alone, at a remote age in the past, and under very crude conditions of cultivation, sustained a population of more than half million people, and with proper facilities for storing the water and it's equitable distribution, its capacity for sustaining life is al- most unlimited. And yet this is but one small portion of the great arid belt. The opponents of the principle of irrigation and of government assist ance can find no reasonable grounds for thelr position. On the other hand the interests and prosperity of the people, and necessarily those of the nation, arc closely identified with the productive capacitynf the country, and any raSonal means employed to increase this capacity is a proper sub ject of national consideration.

TIE Supreme court of the Uni ed States has rendered an opinion in the somewhat celebrated Chae Chan Ping case, involving the constitutionality of the Scott exclusion law. The de cision sustains the law and establishes the principle that our constitution permits the exclusion of aliens whose presence is deemed inimical to the interests of the republic.

BY the papers of New Mexico we observe that Dr. B. M. Thomas, of Santa Fe, is prominently mentioned as candidate for secretary of that ter ritory. Dr. Thomas can get bushel of first-class endorsements in Arizona, where he left splendid record as Reg ister of the U. s. land office in Tucson. There is no applicant more competent and no republican more sincere in his political belief than Dr. Thomas, and his Arizona friends wish him success in his modest aspirations.

IN commenting upon the result of the recent decision of the Supreme Court regarding the trials of Indian criminals in the territorial courts, the Globe Silver Belt says that "hitherto southern and middle Arizona rested under the fancied belief that they were only called upon, so far as our Indian neighbors are concerned, to bury theIr victims and pocket the loss resulting from their raids. But it is otherwise. It is now apparent that the whites must be taxed to preserve the morals of the Indian reservation, a purely federal institution, which affords no revenue to the territory by which they may be made to contribute to the cost of their moral discipline through ! the agency of courts.
