Water WOrks Agdin.

An ordinance is now before the
Board of Mayor and Aldermen of
McMinnville granting to DIR. J. NJ.
Burger franchise for a system of
water works We do not know Of
any enterprise which would be of
greater benefit to our town, and
everybody should encourage the
movement by all possible means.
The benefits and advantages of a
thorough system of water works will
be incalculable. Not only would it
be convenient as water supply for
domestic purposes, street sprinkling,
and other uses, but the matter of pro-
lection against fire and reduction of
insurance rates will he most import
ant item.
The bill provides that work shall
be commenced in three months, and
the system completed in twelve
months.
DIR. Burger informs us that if the
franchise is granted by the Board, nc
time will be lost in pushing the wa
ter>works to completion. We be.
lieve the Board should and will
grant a liberal franchise, and we hope
soon to see the work under, construc-
ton.

From the Los Angeles Express.
The Democratic victory in Wisconsin,
such as it was, was achieved by an attack
upon the American public school sys-
tenn. The issue was the repeal of the
Bennett law, a statute requiring that all
children should be educated in the En-
glish language. The Democracy, APP
pealing to the prejudices of the foreign
born population, took ground in favor OF
repeal, while the Republicans endorsed
the law. Political and ecclesiastical
demagogues carried the day. 1t is an
essential feature of the American public
school system that the instruction shall
be in the English language. 1t is the
foreigners themselves who. have the
greatest interest in this. In every Eu
ropean nation where there are various
races, each speaking its own language,
all CT the races that do not speak the
prevailing language OF the country are
universally and hopelessly doomed to
occupy an inferior place in the State.
Foreign born parents in this country
might better hamstring their children
than to bring them up in schools where
some other tongue is substituted for
English. If the Democratic demagogues
in Wisconsin are able to keep their word
and repeal the Bennett law their action
will rob them of ultimate power. By
taking this unpatriotic position the Dem
ocratic party in Wisconsin is driving
away its own best elements, including
the most intelligent of its naturalized
voters. The result will be to wipe out
the capacity and opportunity for public
influence OF the very faction that de-
mands it. 1t means not only wrong
against the State but political suicide.

The United States Supreme Court
rendered decision Monday having an
important bearing upon the liquor ques-
ton. The decision upholds the right of
a municipal board to grant or refuse
license to an applicant as may appear to
the board proper in the circumstances.
The case was one carried on appeal from
California, the Police Commissioners OF
San Francisco refusing license to
one Henry Christensen. Christensen
brought suit to compel the issuance OF a
license to him, and the suit was carried
to the highest court OF the land as a test
case. The decision sustains many pre-
vious decisions Of the State Courts and
reaffirms the right Of the local Govern
ment to regulate the liquor traffic, and
to say in whose hands it shall be placed.

FAITH IN THE FUTURE.

1t is not difficult to estimate the injury THE
ARIZONA REPUBLICAN did to the Republican
cause in the late campaign by its reckless at
tacks upon the character of the opposition can
didates. "Truth is mighty and win prevail"
and the people regard 1t above party and parti-
san prejudice, even in political campaign.
Thus says that highly moral journal,
the Florence Enterprise.
That "Truth is mighty and will pre-
vail" THE REPUBLICAN firmly believes.
Though the truth did not prevail in the
recent election, we have by no means
lost confidence in the intelligence of the
people or in the belief that the truth
will ultimately prevail. 1t is due to just
such papers as the Enterprise that the
truth did not prevail this year. 1t is n
notorious fact that some of the papers
in this Territory, and the initial letter
of one of them Is "E," have in the past
stood up candidates with "stand and
deliver order" Republican and Demo-
cratic, they have levied assessments up
on the candidates OF their own party,
and those refusing to be bled were either
openly opposed or damned with faint
praise. Any kind of false statement was
made of an opposition candidate if it
was only paid for. So notorious had
this practice become that people had
lost confidence in the newspapers, be-
lieving that all were cut from the same
cloth.
THE REPUBLICAN made no reckless at
tacks upon any candidate during the
campaign. Every charge it made was
based upon the public and official acts
of the men named and it was then, and
is today, prepared to prove every state
ment it made against Messrs. Zuhck,
Brady, ct ais. To see a stalwart Repub-
lican paper fighting vigorously and
aggressively from principle, after their
past experience, was an anomaly to the
people. They could not understand it.
Voters in this County said to friends of
the writer, "If believed those charges
against Zulick were true | would not
vote for him.
"Well, has THE REPUBLICAN not shown
the evidence on every one and demon
strated that they are true?" was the re-
ply of many.
eyes, know that" the voter would
answer, "but you know how it has been
heretofore about newspaper charges and
Pm afraid these are like them" And
so, because of the disreputable and
Judas-Iscariot-course of some of the
papers of this Territory in the past, cor
rupt men gained office, who would other
wise have been defeated.
THE REPUBLICAN has not been, is not
now, and never will beat least under
its present management--wishy washy
in its policy. 1t speaks out openly and
fearlessly upon any topic OF interest to
the people. In its Republicanism it is
of the stalwart order, and it will con-
tinue, as in the past, to stand up boldly
against gangism, or bossism, or corrup-
ton wherever it may find it. 1t stands
as representative of the progressive
element of the Territory and as such it
has no doubt OF the future.

THE Bradshaw Mountain road to Pres
colt will soon be open for travel. 1t will
be Of much commercial benefit to
Phoenix, DETECTING hither large amount
of trade that has heretofore, for lack OF
a road southwark, gone to Prescott. The
citizens of the Mountain City have al
ready taken alarm at the prospect, and
have subscribed large amount toward
improving the road leading from Pres
colt to the mines. 1t is well that they
do 80. Such action will insure a fine
stage road for the entire distance be-
tween the two cities.

SAYS the Los Angeles Express; "The
Southern Pacific Company estimate that
to carry the next orange crop of South
ern California $3.50 cars will be required.
OF these 27 will be used for transport
ing the San Diego County crop, 30 the
Ventura County crop, 1856 the Orange
County crop, 1868 the Los Angeles
County crop and 2Ol9 the San Bernar-
dino County crop. Riverside ships 1900
cars, or within fraction of one-hali OF
the entire product. 1t is estimated that
of these $3.50 cars about 200O will be
worth $500 a car at the point of ship
ment, and 1880 cars at about 5000 a car.
This makes the total worth Of the pro-
duct to the orchardists about ~ GOO, 900,
of which more than IL 100000 will be
paid out in San Bernardino County"

THE REPUBLICAN raises the name OF
James q. Blaine at its masthead for
President in 1892. Mr.. Blaine stands
today the foremost statesman and diplo-
mat in America, if not in the world.
He is man fully abreast of the times,
In fact generally little ahead in all
great movements looking to the advance
of the Nation. As such a man he would
command the hearty support of the
young men Of the country. He has not
lost any of his wonderful faculty Of
drawing men to him, and if nominated,
as THE REPUBLICAN earnestly hopes he
will be, would awaken an enthusiasm
that would override all opposition.

SOME restrictions should be placed
upon the spread of Chinatown. As is
usual with them, the heathens have
established themselves near by the main
thoroughfare in the center Of the city,
and only the width of the street and the
abundance OF room keeps their quarter
from already being a nuisance and a
detriment to the community's health.
The evil should be checked now, while
it is in its first stage.

THE Nogales Herald well says "The
editor OF the Tombstone Epitaph was de-
feated for the Legislature. 1t is hard
matter for the editor of newspaper to
be elected to office. If he has principles
and stands up for them he must do so
openly and boldly, and he is certain to
make a great many people angry with
him, and if he has no principles to
stand up to-why, then he's no editor. +"

FARMING country is rapidly develop
ing. This winter more land will be
plowed than ever. More trees will also
be set out than ever before. This shows
great confidence by the farmers in the
fertility of the soil, and that last years
crops paid them handsome profit. The
farm is the foundation of wealth and
prosperity, and THE REPUBLICAN is glad
to see farms being developed.

Dairy Wishes, by u Kansan.
T. G. Murphy in Hoard's Dairyman.


I have Just returned from the fac
tory this morning and how / do wish
some one would knock our farmers
out of one or two ruts. Think of a
farmer keeping a lot of cows around
in summer making 40c milk and the
cows going on strike about October
lst. How 1 do wish they would
strike their owners who so kindly
shelter them on the warm side Of a
wire fence. A so-called dairyman
who brings about 40 pounds Of milk
to the factory daily and then wonders
why farmers are poor is e. perfect Curl
osity. How I do wish they could be
put into a herd by themselves until
Brother Hoard pounded "dairy farm"
into their beefy skulls. / take 1t all
back. / think the scrub dairyman at
large is worse than a scrub bull in
dairy herd. The scrub bull may die,
while the crop of scrub dairymGn ap-
pears to hold its own and delights to

butter, which they sell or trade for To-
DACCO OF uOIaSetS. 4uo IucECuduL
usually gets sold on that S-scents but
ter. wish my ensilage had lasted at
least till the Odd of April. Why?
Because the cream falls short one inch
to the can and the butter is not as SOL
id as when our cows had ensilage and
we feed as much corn and oat meal as
we did bran with ensilage. The hay
fed is clover and oats cut green. l
wish Kansas dairymen would get
knocked out of another rut, trying to
raise old COW beef at $l.50 per cwt.,
when they could be making 20-cent
butter on less feed than 1t takes to
convert the old COW into boarding
house steak. Then wish they could
be made to see that a COW that only
raises a S. or So calf is loss, when
they could just as well have a COW
that would make $50 pounds of butter
and raise a calf. But that would re-
quire thought, aud to think they would
have to make an effort, and then they
would get out of more ruts.
