A SUBMARINE TERROR.

The dispatches informed us day or torpedo boat, which has been under construction for some time past, has had a preliminary trial under the charge of it's inventor and proved to be a complete success. If this be true the government will accept it and pos sibly order a number of others just like it.
 The boat is a big cigar-Shaped af- fair and while steaming along near Staten Island the other day was seen suddenly to put it's nose under water and dive out of sight as gracefully as a fish. It was reported that it ran eighteen miles under water and sank as low as seventy feet below the sur face It is claimed that it can re- main submerged for four hours, mak- ing eight knots, or nine miles, an hour. It is armed with two torpedo tubes so arranged that they can be discharged while the boat is at any depth below the surface.
 When torpedo boats such as this be- come common there will have to be an other revolution in naval construction and naval warfare. Even the ordi- nary protection of battleships an6 coast defense vessels against torpedo i boats will not avail against this sub- marine terror Concealed behind othel ships or lying hid in harbors and in lets along the coast, it would be pos. sible for this instrument of destruc 1 tion, upon espying the approach of al enemy, to dive to a distance of twenty or thirty feet and make it's way to tn, object of it's attack unseen and un suspected until the fatal blow hat been given. A half dozen such boat, would have a great fleet of armor clads completely at its mercy.

ADVERTISE PHOENIX.

The proposition to advertise Phoenix in the east is one that ought to receive the support of every person interested in the future of this valley. An erron- eous impression prevails that Phoenix is widely known in the eastern states. It is true that interest in Arizona is growing, but to one person with accurate information of this region there are ninety-nine who are ignor- ant of its advantages. Adver- Using such as the Colorado and California and North Carolina and Florida resorts receive is the kind that Phoenix requires to give her great prosperity. Thousands go from Chicago and New York and Philadelphia and Boston to southern Atlantic points who might be attracted to the Salt River valley. A thousand rich tourists would revolutiOnize this town in a single season. The possibilities offered by judicious advertising are so alluring that it seems strange the people of Phoenix have ignored them. Now is the time to start a movement in this direction. Phoenix must be ad- vertised.

It is well that the government is calm enough to recognize what it must do to preserve it's reputation for equit- able judgment in this emergency.

THREW CAT AT THE DEACONs

THREW CAT AT THE DEACONS.
There came near being a general riot
in the suburbs of Bucto, a colored set
element near Mt. Holly, N. j., Friday
night, over the actions Of band of un-
ruly young men intent upon making
mischief.
It seems the members OF the Board OF
Deacons of the Christian Alliance were
engaged in making an examination OF
the accounts of the treasurer of the or
ganizstion, who was unable to make his
books balance with the amount of cash
on hand. There was no question as to
that officials honesty. He had been
iourine for week in order to get the
account in presentable condition, but
every time he footed up his column OF
receiDts the result was different. The
only feature that appeared to remain
stationary Was the actual amount CT
cash in the hands of the treasurer, and
bv no process of bookkeeping that ne
knew OF could that be made to corre-
snond with the account, so the mem
hers of the Board of Deacons were
called in as last resort to help him our
of the diff Guilty.
All were gatht red around . table try.
ing to solve the problem by the light OF
a single kerosene lamp. Each one had
q pencil and piece ofpsper on which ne
was figuring, when suddenly the door
was thrown open and a live cat, with
claws extended, was thrown headlong
at the party seated around the table;
The feline was very much agi'ated, and
was reaching out wildly for some means
of support, which happened to be tne !e
1smn in this case, and in an instant 1t
was thrown on the floor, the table was
inset and the oil began to blaze. ~

PROF. HADLEY's PROPHECY.

EhOE. dADJC1 . hOE hEC L
Oae hundred of Americas and Eng-
lands leading students in political econ
omy aud history, gathered in Colonial
Hall at New Haven. Conn.,, yesterday
evening to open the annual meeting of
the American Economic and Historical
Associations.
President Dwight opened the meet
ing by delivering an address of welcome,
and the president of the Economic As
sociation, Prof. Arthur T. Hadley, OF
Yale, delivered mis- annual address.
His theme was ''The r lation Between
Economics and Politics. Prof. Hadley
said /:
1.-The days OF legislative debate are
numbered if they are not already end
ed. Congresses and parlianents have
been compelled to abandon their
watchword of free speech. For
the actual conduct of. public busi-
mes the legislature is at once an un-
wieldy and irresponsible body. When We
were only governing ourselves we could
ave Congress to make what laws it
pleased and trust to the good sense and
political education of the American
people to prevent irrepsrable damage
But now We havu to deal with people
WHO have not this good sense and this
political education.
More than that, we have to deal wit1
Them in the sight of al the world, and
10 the face of hostile powers who vii
be only too ready to make our misgov-
ernment q pretext for interference
We cannot longer content ourselves
with the laxness of method which has
characterized our dealings with the in
habitants of our western territories.
The need of an efficient army bill, of
itself, makes it necessary TO give more
independence to the administration
and more opportunity to its expert ad-
visers. The need for government of
our new colonies which shall recognize
the principle of trusteeship rather than
of spoliation must conduce yet more
strongly toward the same pursuits.
The need of increased public reve-
nue. to meet our larger administrative
expenditures will render it necessary to
subordinate the demands of the several
districts TO the general necessities OF the
country.
Just how this change of govern
mental methods will come about no
one can venture to predict. That We
shall adopt the English system OF cabi
net responsibility seems unlikely, but
that we shall adopt some system which
will cause the different branches of our
government to operate harmoniously is
8 foregone conclusion.
The alternative is national disgrace,
if not national ruin. Here is the op
portunity for the younger economists OF
the country. If their study is worth
anything it will give them broader
range of data on which to work and
clearer perception of consequences for
the future. 1t will put them in posi-
ton of advantage in giving advice. l
believe that the largest opportunity in
the immediate future lies in practice,
not in the education of individual Gill
zens, however widespread aud salu-
tary, but in the leadership of an organ
lied body polite.
