EVERY Indication points to the
fact that within a few months the
Lone Star. district will be a pros.
porous mining camp; that the rail
road will have reached Globe; that
the segregation of the coal fields
will have been completed, and the
work of uncovering the untold
wealth of that region commenced.
The future of this portion of the
Territory is undoubtedly bright.
1t will not be long until we will
have railroad communication with
the great mining camps of Clifton
and Morenci. Conditions will
soon demand this, and 1T will be
done. Graham county is destined
not only to be the healthiest and
best agricultural section of the
Territory but also the chief min
eral producer.

The Flag, the sign of our coun-
try, suggestive of its birth, strug-
giles, conquests, achievements and
OF every principle, religious moral,
educational or material, of our
national life.
The Cross and the Flag, typical
OF the Christian and the Citizen,
love for humanity, love of country
and ofpatriotism. 1t is but natural
that our Flag should cling to that
standard, Towering Der the
Wreck of Time" An expressive
insignia for an army consecrated
to work for the safety, redemption
and perpetual life Of home and
country.
The Republic has been twice
born. Its birth of Independence.
Its birth of freedom to the black
man wrought by the scourge OF
civil war. This Republic will
have new birth, as betokened by
this symbol of the Christian Citi-
zens' Crusade in the closing years
of the century. The people are
longing for this new era. There is
a growing desire for industrial,
social and political conditions bas-
ed upon Christian principles of
equity. Behold! the rapid increase
of industrial and fraternal associa-
tions. All the outgrowth Of the
simple command, "Bear Ye One
Anothers Burdeus."
Here Is ON inspiring cause, which
should command the most earnest
thought and effort of all who wish
and hope for the future well-being
of man kind. If the Press, the
most active and powerful force in
this age, will cooperate and merge
its power with the moral and
spiritual energy and influence of
the Pulpit in this work, there will
be created'a sentiment omnipotent
in its results, for the message of the
Pulpit and the cause of Christian
Citizenship would go streaming
through the Press, into the minds
and hearts OF the people, into every
mart and channel of trade, into
social and public life, into our laws,
literature, and every artery of
national existence, redeeming this
land before the ushering in of the
next century, giving people and
government which will stand out
on this Hemisphere as the light
which will tighten the world.
Can this be accomplished? Yes,
the forces are already in the field.
They are going forward, and by
this sign of the Cross and Flag we
shall conquer, and this Republic of
Washington and lincoln shall have
a new birth. May the God of the
Nations, "Exalted by Righteous
ness" speed the day when this en-
blem of love may adorn all the
standards Of this Republic, and
this banner be hung on the coulter
walls" of the Nations of the earth.

The symbol of the Christian Citizenship
League.

1
The following speech was made
by Ex-Governor Hughes during
Fourth of July services held in
Tucson, Sunday, the 4th:
The thought of this evening is
Christian Citizenship. Why this
theme?
There has been organized
throughout this land Christian
Citizenship leagues; the national
organization is located in Chicago.
The purpose of these leages is to
unite the Christian forces in the
interest of better citizenship, clean
politics, honest administration of
public affairs, and in national as
well as in the individual life of
citizens, seek to establish "The
Reign Of Whatsoever Things are
True, Honest, Just, Pure, Lovely
and of Good Report"
The National League has adopt
ed as its symbol the Gross, planted
on the western hemisphere, with
the folds of the American Flag en-
twining the same. How significant
and appropriate, the Christian, the
Citizens and the Gross, the Flag.
Was 1t prophetic? When Colum-
bus first placed his foot on this
Hemisphere he planted the Gross
on its shores and consecrated the
New World to its teachings. Four
hundred and FIVE years have sped,
That conservation and the Christian
above all other religions, controls
every government Of this Western
Hemisphere.
This is the one hundred and
twenty-first anniversary of the
birth of our Republic. 1t was
born Of Christian revolutionary
fathers and mothers, Graded and
nourished by their prayers, faith,
courage and fortitude. The results
are with us.
The Gross comes to us through
nearly nineteen hundred years.
Symbol of the birth, life, teachings,
prosecutions, sorrows and tragic
death of the Redeemer of the
World. The personfcation of
life, and that love for humanity
which uttered itself in his last
words on the Cross, Gather, For
give Them, for They Know Not
What They Do"

HYPOCRISY UNMAsKED.

Mckinley, his Secretary of the
Treasury, and other conspicuous
leaders of the Republican party,
would have the country believe
that they are anxious for the re-
storation of silver, and that the
commissioners sent to Europe are
expected to enlist foreign govern
ments in the cause of bimetailism,
ifpossible. They, it is said, are TO
secure an international conference
in the interest of silver. Secre'
tary Gage was present and partlcl-
pated in banquet in his honor In
Maryland a few days since. A
resolution was passed, which was
supposed to have his approval and
that of the administration. 1t de-
elared that "the true interests OF
our country will be best served by
its rigid adherence to the gold
standard of value" This is simp-
ly saying to the officials of the
governments of Europe, pay no
attention to our commissioners;
they are sent to satisfy the insane
and foolish clamor of a portion Of
our people. "This administration
is unalterably opposed to the free
coinage of silver in whatever form
it may be presented" What
shameless hypocrisy! Will it wini

If the population of this valley
increases in the same proportion
for the next ten years that it has
in the last ten it will be the most
densely settled portion of the Ter
ritory. Portions of it that few
years ago were considered utterly
worthless are now under high
state of cultivation. There are
still thousands of acres of rich
land, as yet untouched by progress
sive man that will yet afford beau
tiful homes for industrious home
seekers. All that it needs to bring
these lands under cultivation is a
proper management of the waters
of the ella river. This river
affords water enough, properly
managed, to irrigate three such
valleys. The different canals must
some day have their rights de.
termined and the distribution of
the water controlled by a board or
water commissioner. The water
question is one of vital Importance
to this ualley; it can and will some
day be solved so that every inch
of land in this valley will
be brought to high state of
cultivation.

THE Cabinet has about decided
to give the clerks in the Depart
ments shorter hours. The fact is
that these poor clerks, drawing
from five to six dollars day, and
having to work from nine to four
are being ground down to that ex-
tent that life is o burden. The
farmer can work from sun.up until
shutdown, and feel thankful that
he is alive, but then you see he is
not government clerk. II. Clay

his opinion in regard to shorten
ing the hours Of labor says that
the clerks have their 20 days leave
and that should be recreation

Grafton the duties of the public

from eight in the morning until

Information Received In Washington.

Washington, Sept. THE latest in
formation received by Dr. Bailbache,
acting surgeon general of the Marine
Hospital service. is to the effect that
the disease reported at Ocean Springs,
Miss. is yellow fever. This informa-
tion comes from Assistant Surgeon
Wasdin. whose regular station is at
Mobile, but who was granted permission
to go to Ocean Springs in company
with other physicians, and it is in ac-
cord with the conclusions reached by
Messrs. Harralson and Hunter Of the
Mississippi state board of health in their
report to Governor McLaurin. Dr.
Wasdin's dispatch is as follows: "A
second autopsy confirms the diagnosis
Of yellow fever. There is general ac-
Quiescence in this opinion. The town
Is nearly depopulated. No need Of great
alarm"
notwithstanding the opinion reached
by Dr. Wasdln, the officials here are
loath to believe that the disease is yell
low fever. While attaching much i'm
portance to DR.. Wasdin's conclusions
the bureau, in view of the gravity Of the
situation, will await a report from DR..
John Guiteras of the University of
Pennsylvania, who has been requested
10 proceed to Ocean Springs, before any
action is taken. DR.. Guiteras is a Gu
ban by birth, has himself had a case of
yellow fever and has spent much time
in places where it has existed. 1t is
felt that his opinion of the disease
should be known before any stringent
measures Of precaution are taken, es-
pecially in view of the fact that the
regulations incident thereto always in
volve hardship and in view of the fur
ther fact that the mortality in the pres
ent case has been so light as to make
the officials here doubt whether there /:
any yellow fever at all.
