The above dispatch explains itself.
The manufacturers are able to com
bine and keep up prices and limit pro-
duction; farmers cannot do this, there.
fore, the manufacturers have a great
advantage over the farmers. A pro-
tective tanff gives the market to the
domestic manufacturers, and then
they form a trust to avoid competition
among themselves. A protective tariff
is generally framed by the manufac-
turers themselves; does anybody be-
lieve that they will consider the inter
ests Of anybody but themselves? Me-
Kinlryism means that the farmers
shall help 10 shield the manufacturers
from foreign competition and that the
manufacturers will then couspire TO

oRowNING TRIUMPH

Professor Hinton, Of Princeton,
comes forward with an invention
which promises TO send his name down
TO future generations as one Of the
truly great men Of his time. While
Tesla has been trying TO halo to Mara,
and Edison has been prying into the

rior, Professor Hinton has quietly and
unostentatiously gone forward with q
line OF more important investigation
which stamps him as a man far in ad-
vance Of the age. Prof. Hinton's claim
20 undying fame and the everlasting
thanks Of q grateful people rests upon
the fact that he has invented a caHnon
TO fire base balls. The professor says
he can Gre base ball every twenty
seconds, and send il across the home

ball at will The telegraph adds .ho

Is it not about time to stop and take an
inventory OF an hours day, week, month
or year and see what kind of life you
are living? Nothing like it TO bring q
men to his proper worth and standing
in society
Why should the mechanics and labor
ing men of Phoenix call it hard times

seventy five saloons and gambling
houses?

Why don'b the wheat growers de-
mand doller for sixty pounds of wheat
in place OF one hundred pounds? They
could hire more help on their ranches.
Where oh where is Senator Teller?
He wse to be the leader of the great
Dsmo-Popo-Silyerito parties at the
next Presidential campaign. He went
up like rocket and came down like
nothing. The little scheme he went
into with the silver Democrats last
February a Washington City to go into

the Rspu olicsn party and walk out with
a following Of five or six hundred dele

The hall had bsen sttractively dr8ped

BUcKEY O'NEIL suggests some very
desirable and possibly practicable
things in his proposed bill for the rec
lamation of the arid lands of the west.
Mr.. O'Neill has made study Of the
subject, and follws closely the lines sug-
gested IN the Trans MissIeeippi Con-
gFess OF 1890 and ether years, rs we'll as
suggestions of the International Irrga-
tion Congresses that have met from
time to time, and by the Senatorial
of Senator Stewart, Ex-senator Regsn
and others who visited this valley a
number of years ago. The subject of
State interference in the handling Of
the waters of the great streams of the
arid region is one that has attracted the
attention of the ablest men OF the west
for many years, and has been made the
subject of numerous petitions and bills
for the consideration of Congress, push
ed by the able Representatives and
Senators in Congress from Kansas,
Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, Mon
tauB, Utah, and other States, aud by the
Delegates in Congress of some of these
before they were States. The same
principle of interference, of "righte,"
comes up between States as between
individuals in the same locality on the
banks of g stream Here in Arizona
we are peculiarly free from this per-
picking matter, as all our streams are
nearly confined within the limits of
the Territory except the Colorado, but
a proposition to divert the waters of
that stream largely has already brought
out a protest from Mexico that would
be seriously effected by the large use of
California, though Mexico, as we'll as
ourselves, is making no extended use
of those wsters.et present. This point
requires very nice adjustment, aud Mr.
O'Neill will do great favor to a large
portion of the United 81 tstes il he can
devise plan that will settle 1t. What
be has done by way of suggestions will
assist the numerous suggestions al
ready made on that matter.
