The TERRITORIAL board OF equaliza-
ton, it will be observed, has made
sweeping changes in the valuation Of
railroad property within the territory.
The changes are Of the nature of an
increase ranging from ten to thirty per
cent on the old valuation. This action
of the board which will greatly increase
the income of the territory is no re-
Election upon previous boards but in
dicates that within the past year rail
roads in Arizona have become much
more valuable. The changes are the
result OF careful deliberation and COM
parison with the valuation placed upon
roads in other states and territories
whose conditions are quite similar to
those OF Arizona.

We suspect that the animus OF the

with electric street car terms. Well
admit the existence of the motorneer,
but We must confess that we're in
doubt about the trollyman, unless by
that official the street car editor of the

Columbus Religion.

That Christopher Columbus was pious
is shown by the name San Salvador,
which he gave to the land he first
sighted in the new world, but the names
Trinidad and st. Kits prove him i'm
aginative as well. He gave Trinidad its
name because its three conspicuous
mountain peaks suggested to him the
mystery of the Holy Trinity, and st.
Kits or st. Christopher he called so,
not impiously in honor of himself, but
because great mountain on the island,
bearing upon its shoulder a mound of
lava, suggested to his pious imagination
that loveliest of the Christian legends
embalmed in the etynology of his own
name, Christopher, 1.-THE Christ bearer. ="

Gen. Butler liked to be gorgeous.
He made his tour of the country as the
peoples candidate for the presidency
in magnificent palace car, and when
it was suggested that this conveyance
was not exactly appropriate to the oc-
casion he informed his critics that he
had deliberately chosen this car, and
would have got better one if there
was such a thing. "The people like
their champion to look well, live well,
dress well and to cut as much of a
dash as they would if they could" said
he. "They come to see the man who
asks for their support, and they find
him apparently prosperous and happy,
and they say to one another: That's
my candidate. That's the kind of a
who represents me. He's all

A PUSSY OLD HEN.

That silliest OF silly newspapers, the
Phoenix Herald, appears occasionally to
surpass even itself in Stiffness. Like
disappointed hen whose setting of eggs
had been selected with defective judg-
ment and consequently developed
into nothing beyond penetrating
smell, the Herald has been re-
Gently occupied in futtering and
fussing about the city council and
imagining that that very respectable
and business like body was being in
fuenced by its strutiing and clucking.
II is difficult to imagine more ri
diculous situation.
Immediately after the election The
REPUBLICAN voicing the sentiment OF a
very large majority OF the tax
payers Of Phoenix suggested to
the council certain line of ac-
ton in the matter of municipal
Improvements, prominent and fore
most feature OF which was the extern
sion OF the city limits.
The REPUBLICAN did not make these
suggestions because it believed it to be
essential to do 30 since its confidence
in the wisdom Of the council was then
as it is now, unbounded. 1t realized
also that the council had just been
chosen on an issue embraced in the
suggestions which were after all only a
reiteration of prediction suggestions.
Having done this much THE REPUB-
LICAN could do no more, knowing also
that the council was powerless to carry
out the pledges upon which its mem
bers and the mayor were elected, until
after the adoption of the amendme nts
to the city charter. .
This seems to have been understood
by every body but the fool Herald
which noting that the additions were
not Immediately taken in began cIuck-
ing with vociferation which amounts
almost to a crow.
With i'll ad gised exultation the Herald
editorially produced the following last
night.
When the question OF city Improvements and
the annexation Of the additions was first
broached, the Herald urged that the council
and its ignorant advisors 60 slow in the an
nexation scheme until faith has been shown In
the matter Of promised improvements. The
Herald was asked to keep still and let the ad-
ditions come in first. Then this paper pro.
duced the law, which the directors had not
read and they changed their minds.
Bless your silly soul. not only the
council, but every body else has known
all along that the additions could not be
admitted under the present charter

usual exaggcration in the first reports,
but the money loss will be greater than

The first stories regarding Mountain
Iron and Biwabik were untrue AT
Biwabik only few detached buildings
were burned, and at Mountain Iron
only six buildings. AT Virginia the
situation is as serious u. reported. The
entire business portion of the town is
destroyed. About thirty houses are
standing and $40 burned. Merritt is
nearly wiped out, only sixteen build

TRADING VOTES.

German National Liberals Iheeflsed at
Richter-His Proposed Deal With the
Socialists.
BERLIN, June 20.-Eugene Richter,
leader of the opposition radicals, has
agreed formally with August Bebel and
Wilhelm Lcibknecht, leaders of the
social democrats. to deliver to the social
democrats in tho second ballots, all the
radical votes that he can control in
constituencies where the contests will
be between social democrats and can
didates favoring the army bill. In re-
turn Leibknecht and Bcbel will order
the social democratic voters to support
Richterists in constituencies where the
latter contest seats with representa-
tivcs of the government party.
The bitterness felt by the govern
A1ent parties toward Richter is Excess
sive. In Hagen, which Richter repre-
sentcd in the last reichstag, and which
the recount gives him the right to con-
test with Herr Breil, social democrat,
the national liberals say that they
will vote with the socialists so as to
throw Richter out. Breil received
6,65S votes on the first ballot and
Richter 1851. As the national liberals
control 1000 and perhaps 4,5OO votes in
Hagen, it is in their power to Gus t

farther off than ever to-day.
She had purposely tried to goad him
into sense of shame for his indolent
attitude and his unmanly shifting Of
the responsibilities that were his upon
her weak shoulders. She had deliber-
ately and purposely been insolent to
him. To what purpose? They had
gone all around the drcarily familiar
circle and drifted back to his mutton
and his wine! There was no holding
him to any serious purpose. The only
evidence of tenacity that Ames Fair.
banks had ever given to the world was
in his observance of a VOW which Ida
well called that old wartime imbecil-
ity," and in his hatred OF the Lorimers..
Ida knew the origin of what he grandilo-
quently called his sacred vow." He
had come home on furlough during the
civil war, summoned to his wife's death.
bed, and had found his home occupied
by the enemy, who had confined his
family to the upper story. Running
unwittingly into this trap, he was him
self relegated to the floor which he had
since converted into hermitage, and
was there made paroled prisoner.
There, in his wrath, he registered a
vow; he would never descend the steps
that led to the polluted first floor of his
home, until carried out of it in his
coffin.
Cynical people said that Arnes Fair
banks, pleasure-loving, sybaritish, sell
fish and indolent, found it easier to
keep this VOW than to wrestle with the
new order of things. Hence his rigid
observance of 1t.
The close of the war found him with
diminished family-Sibley. his oldest
son, then a boy of eighteen; Ida, his
youngest girl, then girl of ten. Sibley
had struggled freely with the wretched
and disorganized estate. He was too
much like his father to succeed in any.
thing that required stable resolve and
drudging insistance. Both men were
fitted exclusively to adorn the luxurious
circles of society. Both tnen were SUI
perb physically, but defective morally.
They FLASHED perpetually. There Was no
one but girl child to adjust matters be-
tween them. The result was disastrous,
but natural. Sibley, sore, tired, angry,
tainted his father years ago, as Ida
had tainted him that day, and had
thrown the whole miserable business
up, and had gone away with cruel in

THE WASHINGTON TRAGEDY.

The Coroner's Jury Holds Afnswofth. Dane,
Covert and Sasse Responsible Tor the
Ford's Theater Calamify-The Govern
fnent Also Censored.
WASHINGTON, June 30.-It was de
cided by Coroner Patterson that Col.
F. C. Ainsworth should not be sum-
InoIted to appear as a witness before
the coroner's jury investigating the
cause of the Ford theater disaster.
This decision was precipitated by b. II.
Warfier, one of the jurors, in stating
that several of the jurors would like
the coroner to issue a subpoena for Col.
Ainsworth to give testimony at the in
quest, not merely in regard to his own
connection with TIE theater accident,
but with reference to other parties coIi=
cerned. 81 see no reason" said Mr..
Warner, why he should be treated
differently from other witnesses. Four
of the jury favor having him before us,
the other two are Indifferent. mas
much as statements that this jury is
prejudiced agairstliim have been made
in the public press and elsewhere, NC
think that he should be made to APP
pear"
Coroner Patterson said he did not De-
heve that the presence of Col Aims
worth would in any way assist in show
ing how Frederick LOTUS over whose
body the inquest is being held, canie to
his death. Nothing could be gained by
summoning him in his official capacity,
and as Col. Ainsworth was not willing
to appear as an ordinary citizen he
thought nothing could be gained by
calling him.
After being out two hours the jury
returned verdict setting forth that
Frederick II. Lotus came to his
death by the disaster at Fsrd's
Theater building on June Q, 1898.
The verdict re.cites the fact that
George w. Dant was the con-
tractor Ypder the government for
the work in progress, which caused she
disaster and all the circumstances con-
iiected with the accident, and find that
Col. Frederick c. Ainsworth, in charge
of the building; William c. Covert, the
superintendent; Francis Sasse, the en-.
gineer, and George w. Dant, the con-
tractor, are responsible for the killing
Of Lotus. The jurors further fiid
that the failure of the government of
the United States to provide for
skilled superintendent of the work of
repair and alteration of its buildings
in charge of the war department is

History. Formed III 1907 by Ndp6leon,
it suffered untold losses and hardship
from the worse than Apache warfare,
and against the cruel, cnraged noun

from sunny CASTLE to frozen Russia, it
was, with the exception of few pla-
icons; annihilated during the eam-
paign. 1t fought for Napoleon with
such splendid courage at Leipsie and
Dresden as to call forth the praise Of
even that great master. AS recon-
pense, when beaten back with him on
to French soil, it was disarmed and
endorsed, its men were insulted by the
people of every town in France through
which they were dragged, and only the
officers of French birth received COM
missions in other regiments. No won
der these staiich Westphalians were
glad when Prussia took them to meet
Napoleon in the victorious Waterloo
campaign. One can well realize the
feeling that thrilled its ranks as, one
day when the opposing forces stood
facing one another, SCARED veteran,
who had served since 1907, rode out
with lance borrowed from Silesian
Uhlan and deticd any Frenchman to
come out and fight, running his lance
through the one who came.-Harper's
