 Under present arrangements it re- quires two to four days to get letter from Arizola to Florence and its reply back to Arizola, If the mail travelled the route it should, the reply to a let ter could be received the same day it is written. Doctor Barry's business and correspondence between the two places, would alone justify this change. It would diminish the value of the service to no one, and it would be a great convenience to Arizola.

The round of time has again brought the American people to a recurrence Of their great national holiday. In the present condition of affairs there sre those who will argue that there is lit- tie or nothing for which to be thank ful. and that omission of its observ- ance at this time would be not incOr- rect. All such, however, have failed to grasp ths scope and meaning or thr great American festival, ifnot it's very origin. Its institution in early colo nial times was due to the providential escape of an Infant colony from an impending disaster. The governor at once issued his official proclamation that the day should be one of thanks giving and prayer, perpetual observ- ance of which va. enjoinsd. The GUS tum thus established was adopted by adjacent colonies, and long before in- dependence the institution was firmly established in American life. Each year executive proclamations called the people to observance of the day, and the governors of the states con- tinued the custom so long observed by by the colonial executives.
 While an American festival it did not become national until the time of the civil war, and Abraham Lincoln was the first chief executive to call the entire people as a nation to the threne of the Almighty in thanksgiv- giving and praise, establishing the day fully and completely as a national American festival.
 President Lincoln also proclaimed days of fasting and prayer in which ths people confessed the national sins and implored Divine-forgiyenness.
 The office of this festival speculiar, It is almost the sole national recogni- tion of that Omnipotent Power which controls the affairs of men and nations to His own ends whether they will so or not. That there is some such power only blind fatulty will deny. And it does neither men nor nations any harm to acknowledge that power and occas- ionally address Him.

Brethren of tbe Arizona democracy, This ventilation of your respective moral characters by each other is alto gether unseemly and entirely unneces- sary. We all know that in early life you were all high kicksrsr and high rollers;" that you Hooked on the wine when it was red;r that you fought the tiger in his lair: that you lusted after the flesh and got it when you wanted it, with little compunction whether the skin encasing it was white, black, red or yellow-all these things were known, and what's the good telling of them now. We all know you will of fend no more-you are getting too old. Those were the follies of youth. and age should not be held responsible.

A GRAVE OMISSION.

Whenever a deliberatiye assemblage of any kind, otherwise than partisan, gathers in the capital of common monwealth, it Is the universal custom to invite the chief executive of the state or territory to address the body i'm session, either in words of vel come or kindly wishes for it's work. That is a courtesy due the position whether the man be deserving of scant courtesy or none. In that particular the recent statehood convention at Phoenix committed very grave mis- take-one which it could not very well afford It is true the convention was in the hands of Governor Hughes per sonal enemies within bis own party; but they should not have forgotten the amenities Of the occasion. Men who aepire to control the destinies of a great state are usually little broader than that.
 The worst feature is the objection it puts in the mouths of those who op- pose in congress the admission of Ari- zona. They can cite,to the committee sent on to Washington, as as an in- stance of uniitness for statehood. this very omission of the convention so sending them.

With the close of the century the Nicaragua canal will be built. The power in possession of Hawaii will control that canal The very necessi- ties of her position will compel the United States to control it. Unless the Islands are now taken in, the ris- ing generation will have to wage a costly war for their possession. That is why patriotic Americans decry the deliberate abandonment of the pres cnt opportunity. And in the face of such a proposition the political wishes of lot Of half-civilized hybrids should not be considered.

Both the Phoenix Herald and the Arizona Republican have laid the peo- pie of Arizola under many obligations by kindly expressions of sympathy for the effort to get the post office de- partment to change the mail route between Casa Grande and Florence so the stages will come around this way, and put Arizola in direct communica- tion with the county seat. Both pa pers assert the change ought to be made, and they are right. A place that works to build up the country the way Arizola does should be granted every facility.

than through the Negro press, which
is fast becoming organized as an all

CHICAGO, Feb. 10.-At an adjourned
meeting of the Western Passenger as
sociation here encouraging headway
was made toward settlement Of the
question Of immigrant commissions. A
resolution was offered providing for 10
per cent commission on intermediate
local business. and a maximum commits
sion of 81 80 for eastern gateways Of
the association to Missouri river points,
st. Paul and Minneapolis and beyond,
including points in Kansas, Nebraska,
North and South Dakota and Mime
sofa, also commission of 81 80 to Colo
RADIO and Utah points. The proposition
to abolish ''split orders" was not unani
mously concurred in.
The only obJectors, however, were the
northwestern lines. and it was finally
decided to incorporate in the resolution
provision that "split orders" should
not be used or accepted excepting on
business to and via st. Paul AMI Mime
apolis, and that the division Of the busi
ness should be left with the immigrant
agents.
1t is understood that the STEAMSHIP
agents are each to give an indemnity
bond of 81 900 to insure the roals
against the misuse Of these split or
ders," and will forfeit 800 for every
case in which such an order is used fU.,
other than legitimate immigrant bUsi
ness. The resolution was adopted srl-
ject to the approval Of fsveral lines that
