A CHEAP POLITICIAN.

Governor Leedy of Kansas recently delivered himself of diatribe against President Mckinley, Secretary Alger and the whole administration As the people of Kansas are generally sensi- ble, this invective of Governor Leedy will prove boomerang It is ample proof of his ignorance when he at tempts to make political capital out of this war and the manner in which it has been conducted. The whole coun- try has learned to trust President Me Kinley, and the people are well sat isfed with the results of the war. It is to be expected, however, that the petty politicians who could not even manage the enlistment of states quota of troops, will now come forward and viciously bark at the magnificent administration that has conducted the affairs of state during this war, in a manner that the intelligence of the country comments.

THE TRADE OF THE TRoPdCs.

AS nations become rich and culti- vated, what were luxuries become ne cessities, and the list of changes from one to the other continually increases. the memory of men yet living they were luxuries Could we live without sugar? Yet the Greeks had only honey and the Romans knew sugar cane only as a curiosity; the Dutch settlers of New York suspended a lump above their tea tables by a string, and it was passed around that each might get taste, but no more.
 In this age it is the trade with the tropics that makes nations rich, be- cause those sun-kissed productions seek market at the hands of those who are always able and generally willing to pay high prices for their pleasures Our necessities come from the north our luxuries from the south. See the prices paid for the first cucumber and tomato and orange; consider the trade that is always developed when rapid transportation pushes it's way another station towards the equator, and you can begin to realize the importance of preserving any advantage we may se- cure.
 An authoritative statement in the London Times gives us this summary: Ini Ire Ia vyif ics, e13S, 1000, ,OO0; United States trade with the tropics, 970,000,000; total,
 S POS, ,OO0, 900; combined trade of Unit ed Kingdom and United States with the remainder of the world outside English speaking lands, G437 ,O00, 900. The importance of the trade with the tropics is here seen at a glance; with the merchant marine that necessarily goes with it, the difference between success and failure may well depend On it's possession and, with the keen com petition of modern times, it's posses sion may change with the ownership of certain strategic points.
 For trade to these distant lands can- not be profitable without quick trans portation, which is impossible without convenient coaling stations
 The possession of these strategic
 points by Spain has retarded the de- velopment of some of the richest and fairest portions of the earth's surface. If we return them to nation incap-
 able of progression, do we not throw
 our weight into the scale of darkness
 as against light?
 Just as the struggle grows vital we
 come into possession of the stations we
 need; with the best islands in the two
 Indies may we not hope to push Eng
 iand still closer in the century flow
 dawning upon us?
 | Is it not for the good of humanity i that this rivalry should continue? Is | it not sinful, then, to think of return
 ing these vantage points to nation i that will not utilize them? Owe we nc
 duty to the world and to mankind?

TERRITORIES AND COLONIES.

It is not necessary to make Hawaii a state; indeed, it is probable it will always continue territory. Porto Rico need not be made state until it's peo- ple become American in spirit But the territorial condition involves no hardship, since local affairs will be in the hands of the people, as they always have been. in our territories. In the territorial relation the people of Porto Rico will enjoy better government than the island has ever known. In fact, the territorial system of the United States can be said to be a better form of government and much more popular in it's features than the colo nial governments of Europe-Indian- apoliS Journal.

PROFITABLE ADVERTISING.

It's pretty hot weather to talk business, but we can't help dl- recting attention to the enter pr1se shown by the leading local merchants this summer, as in dicated in sthe columns of The Republican. It has been the pol icy of this paper to preach ad- vertising every day in the year That the merchants of Phoenix have accepted our doctrine is shown by the quantity of adver- fisements in The Republican. More merchants are advertising this summer than in any previ- ous summer. Business generally is better as the result of this advertising. Nine out of every ten newspaper readers in the Salt River valley read The Re publican. That is why business men who use our advertising col unlns get good results.
 Advertising :n The Republican costs more than in other Arizona papers, but the difference in cost is more than made up by the increased publicity given adver- tisementS.

Resolution On the Conduct Of the
War.
A FULL INQUIRY WANTED
RESOLUTION INTRODUCED BY
CONGRESSMAN SULzER.
Proposes Thorough Investigation of
the War Department BY the House
Committee-Early Debate On War
Questions Is Expected-Appropri-
alton Estimates For Two Years.

Washington, Dec Representative
Sulzer Of New York, ranking Demo-
cratic member of the house committee
on military affairs, has introduced a
resolution authorizing and directing
the committee on military affairs to in
vestigate the war department and the
conduct of the Spanish war" The res
olution follows:
Resolved, That the committee on
military affairs be, and the same hereby
is authorized and directed to investi-
gate the war department and the con-
duct of the recent war between Spain
and the United States, and report all
of said proceedings, with their findings,
conclusions and recommendations, to
the house of representatives, with all
convenient speed.
THAT said committee is hereby au-
thorized and empowered to send for
documents, books and papers, and eX-
anime persons under oath in any part
of the United States, and employ a
stenographer, and that the sergeant-at-
arms is hereby directed to attend said
committee and carry out its directions.
THAT the necessary expenses of the
investigation be paid out of the contin-
gent fund of the house"
The resolution was referred to the
committee on military affairs.
An early debate on war questions is
expected in the house in connection
with the deficiency bill, which is de-
voted exclusively to items for the army
and navy The bill was practically
completed today, and will be finally
passed on in committee tomorrow, and
then presented to the house. Chairman
Cannon of the appropriation committee
said today that he hoped to begin con-
sideration of the bill on Wednesday,
and to pass it before the end of the
week. He hardly thought there would
be any general opening up of war ques-
tons now, although if debate ran into
such channels he thought it might as
we'll come now as any time.
