A Sign Of Danger.

TO those who study the development
OF sociology, the movement inaugur-
ated by Eugene Debs, is one full of dan
ger for the future.
The IDEAS which have led to the or
ganization of wnat is somewhat Osten-
tatiously styled the social democracy
OF America are, in themselves. foreign
to every principle which has built up
Teutonic civilization, of which we are
an outgrowth. The people of that race,
beginning at the time when record is
lost in the mist of antiquity, have been
imbued with a strong spirit of individ-
uality, and it may be said that it is this
spirit of personal effort, joining the en-
thusasm of each to the mass, which has
made Of Teutonic peoples, and those
which have grown out Of them, the lead
ers Of the human race. While the peO-
pie OF other races looked TO Chieftains
and to governments for leadership and
direction. those of Teutonic stock made
It personal matter and were always
Jealous Of he interference of the state.
Coming through the Saxon domination
of England into our own country, that
indiyidualism has strengthened with
time. until the day has been reached
when these people may be said to be
self-governing in the sense that were

would go on in the even tenor of their

have developed so strongly in their
lives. II was the privilege of the Unit

lives . race which only asked that each
man be protected in his individual oc-
cupation. and that the least government
IS the best government.
IT is only in late years that a depart
ure from this high standard of civili-
cation could even be limited at. With
the establishment of the principle that
a government bond coupon was more
valuable than a human being. there be-
gan that unrest which prompted men
to look about for devious forms of re-
life. and it is no wonder that in their
desperation extremists have appeared,
and that schemes have been broached

common sense calls for a treatment OF
the cause rather than sneer at the ef-
feet. This movement has behind it the
same forces which paralyzed the COM
merce of the country in 1892. of which
Debs then, as now, was the leader.

A Candid New Highlander.

Sooner or later New England must
recognize the fact that she cannot cope
successfully with this section in the
manufacture of cotton fabrics. The
south is the home Of the cotton plant,
and why should it not also be the home
of the cotton industry in its broadest
sense? Such is evidently natures pur-
pose: and what nature has ordained,
New England cannot annul.
Within the past few weeks one of the
leading business men of New England
has made careful study OF the south's
advantages in this respect, and the con-
clusions reached by him should be Civ

Even Pennsylvania Is Disheartened

The state of Pennsylvania. which
rolled up 100000 majority for the re-

costing the government something like
$1,000 600 annually. These are sUTpris-
ing figures, but coming from the legis-
lative committee, they are doubtless
correct. Without obscuTing the logic
of these figures, it may be asked: What
has become of the business revival pre-
dicted by republican orators during the
late campaign? Instead of improving.
it seems that matters have grown dis
tressingly worse since the republican
party assumed control of the govern

how does it happen that the prosperous

AN .LL-ADvlSED CHANGE.

Information was received last week that it was in contemplation to aban- don the military telegraph line be- tween San Carlos and Geronimo, and to connect San Carlos with Camp Grant direct The reason assigned for the proposed change is that teams travelling the public highway between Geronimo and San Carlos break down the telegraph poles and wires, thereby causing expense and interruption to business. The excuse is insufficient, as the change would result in loss of business to the line and considerable delay in reaching Gila valley points by wire, an important consideration to the government.
 The detriment to Globe If the change were effected, would be very material, and to prevent it petition from Globe business firms and mining companies was forwarded to Capt. W. A. Glassford, chief signal officer at Denver, in charge of the military tele- graph lines of this division. As Capt. Glassford has familiar knowledge of this section of Arizona and is well dis posed toward Globe, it is confidently hoped he will use his influence to pre- vent the abandonment of the line to Geronimo

 8. The long term of the contract.
 i. That good and sufficient bond was not required of the canal company to indemnify the territory in the event that the canal was never completed There were other conditions in the contract which were objectionable but less material, and it was these minor terms which Governor McCord had amended, and which the Republican has paraded as evidence of the gover- nor's active interest in the welfare of Arizona. Anyone of ordinary discern ment can readily see that the amend ment of the contract is mere pre- tense, pretext to dismiss the appeal in the U. $.

A LAME DEFENSE.

The Phoenix Republican of Sept % publishes as,defense of Governor Me Cords action in having ratified the prison labor contract, and since the Republican is the official mouthpiece of the governor, the statements made therein may be accepted as authori- tative.
 The Republican is disingenuous in its attempt to convey the impression that the governor had DO definite knowledge of the prison labor contract when he assumed office. He discovered, says the Republican, "that the interests of the territory would be subserved by securing some amendments to the con tract. As McCord was a party to the negotiation of the original contract and, it must be assumed, was fully in formed of all the conditions which it imposed, therefore it is not possible to imagine how he cOnld "discover" any thing pertaining to that obnoxious agreement McCord was appointed by Governor Hughes member of the board of control, and they two domi- hated the action of that body. Hughes and McCord were ''like twin cherries on single stem." They negotiated the contract with Ives ct als for leasing the labor of the convicts. If that con tract was unfair and damaging to the territory's interests, McCord can not escape responsibility and censure for bis share in that transaction, and by admitting that the interests of the ter ritory required the amendment of the contract, McCord stands self convicted of bartering away q valuable interest of the territory.
 The Republican says "The con- tract as amended, in the opinion of the governor, is not only fair to the ter ritory, but the general policy of work ing the prisoners has his hearty con- eurrence. The appeal case to the United States supreme court will, therefore, be dismissed "
 The salient features of the original contract inost seriously objected to were:
 l. The inadequate rate per diem for the prisoners labor.
 2. That payments to the territory were to be made only in shares in the
