ARIZONA vs. NEW MEXICO.

Hon c. M. Shannon who is now in Washington in an interview with the Post at that city claimed that Arizona stands most ia need of an enlargement of it's railroad system. "Our t:anspor- tatlon facilities said he are very iEade- qu8te. For instance, 8, ms of our mem- oers of the legislatI-~ hcv, - .fa. =. 800 or S0r $ to the capital, going
 oay round by California or, equally as circuitous a route, through New MexI- co. A railroad is now in process of construction that vii bind the north ern and southern parts of Arizona, connec ing the Atlantic & Pacific and Southern Pacific roads. This will bring us great relief, but We need oth T roads besides for the proper develop ment of ur..splendid resources. Our people are getting rather impatient for statetood and can't understand why it is so long denied them. Apropos of the foregoing it may be added that MT. Shannon is a candidate for the internal revenue collectorship and most certainly when a change is made, we want to see him get It. He is, so far as we know, the only candidate for the place in Arizoua and all hands should stand tie with hun to win. The district embraces Arizona and New Mexico, and for the past ten years the office has been monopolized by citizens of our neighboring territory, with head quarters either in A buquerque or Santa Fe. Too much of good thing is worse than nothing so we believe in giving Arizona the next shuffis at the deck c. M. Shannon worthily repre- ented Graham county in the lat legi lature and deserves the appointment he seeks He is intelligent. narEe,io and n better To king man than olt Pap" Fisher who took he office away from here. It be- noyves syery Ariz1naD to stand by Mir. Shannon and see that he gets the off ice when the change IS made. Get onto the CITIZEN tow line. Shannon.

UNDER the ruling of the Supreme Court the Geary act has been declared ,cnstitut;ona, and the Chinese who re- used under the advice of tbe Six Gem names. to register will now be deported Q their own country. The Chinese are .lone to blame in the matter. They gere, under the law, compelled to regis ter and had this been done they could nave pursued the even tenor of their xay without molest4tion or hlndranc put instead of complying ",un the law
 hey uaue It defiance and refused to comply with the terms of its require ments. The result will be deportation. The Chinese Six Companies who couo seled an open violation of the law should De among the first to be depOrted. They not only openly opposed a compliance with the law but impos= d penalties and punishmeuts on those whose dIsposl-
 ions were to do as the law demanded The Six Companies are usuIers of tht very worst kinG, and to whom every Chinaman must pay his portion TO natter how acquired. The laws Of the United States must indeed be ienient Ehen it tolerates foreign tribunal with in itself that counsels insubordIuatioi md openly advocates violatioa of the laws of the country under which they nave grown opulent at the expense ot sheir unfortunate and misguided bre.h- erep. Instead of favoring compliance vith the law they not only advocated put demanded of their subjects under penalty, violation of it ia both letter and spirit. We now believe in the Six Companies paying for t. cir terrlto'y We believe that the full effects of th' aw should be directed against them md that the work of deportation should begin with th ID and not with the un- 'ortunates who through ignorance anC timidity So blindly followed theii advice,

WOMEN wAGE-EARNERS.

The May Arena contains an article O. women wage-earners, by Helen Camp bell, who is widely known for the iatel- ligent books and essays she has wri' ten upon this highly important subject. | IS divided into two paris, showing tn condition of women-workers in Europe and the United States.
 Statistics show that very large proPor- tion of the women of Europe are en- gagged in some sort of wage earning But many of them are employed in the mines and the fields, forms of labor al most unknown among the women of thIs country. Much has been done b! law in England for the improvement of the condition of women-wOrkers, but there seems to be an impression that r is impracticable for legislation to do anything more. Yet in London thu condition of working women is horrible. Thousands of them are paid wages tta' hardly suffice for subsistence, and il seems to be impossible to find remedy
 In France the condition of women workers is better than 1t is ID England. This seems to be due in some respects to the different social c, nditions unde. which women m France expect to share in the labor of their husbands and also to generations of training in busipess economy. Two-thirds of the women of Germany are engaged in some sort of occupation. A larger percentage than in any other country work in the fields. The training given in the schools i better in Germany than in any other European country, and the government is doing a great deal in the way of factory inspection.
 In reference to this country the article tells the old, old story of women and girls working for starvation wages ana compelled to face the competition O. those who do not need to work. In the United States 'some 400 trades and occupations are now open" to women. This is one the fruits of the effort for the so-called emancipation of women. 1t is right that every occupation for which they are by nature fitted should be open to women, but 1t is not right that these who do not need to work should leave their homes to enter into com petition with these who have no homes. They compete for worK upon which the homeless depend for subsis- tence. The world has gained by the of Wosaen for that is in I

comprehensive table showing the pop ulation and amount of gold, silver and notes in circulation in the countries of United States respectively. It is shown that France has S700,000 coo O. silver ln circulation, while tte United States has only ,S02 and the three na- tious, Great Britsin, Germany and the United States, combined have only 5431, ,29S, ,902 in silver money. The fact of Frances enormus holding of silver would not be alone signiti can't were 1t not also true that she has almost twice as muah gold as either Great Britian or Germany. and almost three times as much as the United States. Frances gold holdings CmouL to S900,GO0,OOO, while the United States has only S315.- 607,1i2.

THE departure of NJ ni-ter Stevens from Homo ull was no: forced ss some of the powers that be are now endeav- bring t. make it appear, because of hlF lntrigues in favor of annexation.

The first st. amer that left Hono- lulu after the arrival oI Commis ioreF Blount brought Minister Stevens re- sgnation aad request that his success sor be immediately appointed. He dld not wish 10 remain p ter he had beeL stripped of his authority and humltlated in the eyes of the residents Of Hawan Secretary Gresham requested him lo remain at his post until his successor was appoil tsG tut MT.

PATRoNlzE home industry. Patronize nome mercharts. Patronizs your home
 riniiDg houses, and thus encourage home prusperiJy.-St-r.
 We believe that many of our merch- ants honestly pItronIze hone industry and we also believe that many of our citizens purchase nothing outside of Tucson that can be had here, but we also bel eve that there are merchants who never buy thing here that caa be had @ 'sewhare few cents cheaper, and we further believe that there are people who meke their living here but who purchase everything they consume in California. That they have an uD- doubted right to do this is not ques- toned, but if there were many more merchants and people of this k nd there would be fewer stores open and more mea looking for situations than al present. There was once a finn in thi: city aho offered reward of five dollars for the best essay on Home Patronage, but at hst very time that same firm was patronizing cheap John house 1T Ohio for its pill heads and stationery This is poor way to encourage busi ness in a town that depends largely fo the existence of its commerce and trade on the enterprise of its merchants anC the determination of it's citizens tC stand by their home industries. FortU rately the ID jority of our merchant and the mass of our people have patriot ism and pride enough in tne city t stand by it, encourage its resources anC patrouIze it's industries. We admir- them for it for it is upon such cit:z-n

In it's crusade agalnst the managers of Comstock companies, and to show the naughtIness of some of the manipnlators. the City Argus, of San Francisco, has oeen secretary and president of these companies. The Bal"iOn company bnd 5he Andes are the last to be ovsrhauled. From the records of the Bullion, on April b, it was shown that there We're only two miners employed at 5l a day.

 P.szing to consideration of the Andes company, the Argus prints items show ing hat the total expenses of two mInsis for a month are s208. and the expenses for supernumeraries S1297 for the same period. It adds: "The history of this mine is full of meat for the managers and assessments for the shareholders. It was originally located in 1859 and re- located August ', 1872.

What a Woman Can Do.

She can come to a conclusion with out the slightest trouble of reasoning on 1t, and no sane man can do that.
 Six of them can talk at once and get along first rate, and no two men can do that.
 She can safely stick 50 pins in her dress while he IS getting one under his thumb nail.
 She Is as cool as a cucumber in half a dozen tight dresses and skirts, while a man will sweat and fume and growl in one loose shirt.
 She can talk as sweet as peaches and and cream to the woman she hates, while two men would be punching each others heads before they had ex- changed ten words.
 She can say mo" in such a low voice that 1t means "yes."
 She can sharpen lead pencil if you g've her plenty of time and plenty Of pencils.
 She can appreciate a kiss from her husband 70 years after the marriage ce- remony was performed.
 She can go to church, and afterward tell you what every woman in the con gregation had on, and in some rare in- stances can give you some faint idea of what the text was.
 She can do more in a minute than man can do in an hour, and do 1t better.
 She can drive a man crazy In 24 hours, and then bring him to paradise in two seconds by simply tickling him under the chin, and there does not live that mortal son of Adams misery who
