The tendency to foment disorder springs
from a weakness common to the race. No
sooner does the uneducated and undisci-
plined negro imagine himself invested with
authority than he begins to swell and to
manifest arrogance. 1t is his inability to
exercise repression which units him 20

Destiny Playing the Races.
From the Baltimore American (Rep)

Between the riots in the South, the
trouble with the Indians and the diff

playing the races.

There is one feature of the strike in the
Augusta cotton mills which will be apt 10
influence public sentiment 10 some degree
in favor of the operatives. 1t is the fact
that the cut in wages did not extend
through the whole list Our dispatches
state that none above the section hands
were cut. That is TO say, the officials and
higher salaried operatives are TO be paid
the same wages as heretofore, while the
lower priced operatives are to be reduced.
If it was necessary to reduce wages, it
would seem that the fair thing to do would
have been to treat everybody alike.

Speaking of the possibility Of the
United States carrying the war to the
coast of Spain, the ST. James Gazette
says: There is no need for an invasion,
but the presence of strong armament
which the Spanish navy could not drive
off, on the coast, would produce a tre-
mendous effect, and there are numer-
Gus unfortified anchorages where the
Americans could recoal at leisure. OF
course, there are powers in Europe who
would witness the operation with great
disgust, but if the Americans are going
to be frightened by the vague abstrac-
tion called Europe, they must be very
timid. Let them consult the Sultan,
and remember that England is their
Russia for the time being.

Wanamaker is Right.

"In order for US to have good times
the people must not only make money,
but they must also spend it freely. The
two things are reciprocal 1t is the
market that keeps the factories and the
stores and pays the wages"
This is what John Wanamaker said
recently. Mr.. Wanamaker is one OF the
few rich men in this country with a
glimmer of economic sense. The aver
age editorial idiot is advising the peo-
ple to save their money. They must be
saving it; they certainly are not spend
ing much of it. Nothing will so quickly
breed hard times as an epidemic OF
economy. There is circulating me-
dunn of but $23 per capita, and proba-
bly $15 of this is in the banks or other
wise idle. If the people save the re-
naming $8-which is not much to save
what becomes of our circulating me-
dium? And yet the people are urged
to save their money. You might as we'll
ask a man to save his breath or dam up
the circulation of his blood. Under
our present laughable system OF society
the spendthrift is benefactor and the
prudent man is an enemy to the public

A Tragedy on the San Pedro.

Last Saturday night terrible trag-
edy occurred at Clark's ranch on the
San Pedro river about six miles above
the Mammoth.
A Mexican chopped his wife's head
nearly off, then came down to Mammoth
and gave himself up to the authorities.
The facts as far as learned appear to be:
The Mexican, who is about forty years
of age had young wife about eighteen
years old. She was talking about going
to a party next evening and he object
ed, but finally consented, but told her
not to be making fool of herself by
showing herself in another young Mex
ican's company, which resulted in some
words. when his wife told him she
would never have anything to do with
him and he picked up an axe and brain
ed her and then came and gave himself
I'D and acknowledged his crime.
The body Of the victim was sent for
and before the coroner's inquest her
murderer was brought face to face with
the corpse and he acknowledged the
deed. ard said he had cut the gashes in
her head. The victim was buried and
her murderer is in Jail. The case seems
to be one of insane jealousy.-Tucson

4 Startling but True Charge.

Read what the Chicago Journal un-
der its new management has to say
about the Chicago press:
"The Chicago press has become by
word among journalists all over the
country for the suppression of valua-
BILE news. The pigeon-holes are full of
facts; the columns of these papers are
padded with puffs and ridiculous boom
news. We have but to point to the
smothering of the Investigation of the
water frauds at the stock yards, the
supr ression of the truth about the con-
nection of certain prominent citizens
with the bribery of the legislature, the
seclusion of facts with regard to the
real condition of dishonest banking
concerns, and the abject treatment of
the Moore Brothers failure to show the
extent to which public interests are
sacrificed to private necessities. In the
Moore failure. involving thousands of
persons and injuring the financial
standing of Chicago, all the papers
we're permitted to print was alleged
facts prepared in Mr.. Phillip D. Ar
mour's dining room and carried around
to the newspaper Offices in typewriter
copy by an employee of Chas. T. Yerkes.
"How many criminals have been
shielded from just punishment, how
many poor people ruined by this poll
cy of suppression, we leave it to the
keepers of the secret pigeon-holes in
the offices of our contemporaries to
estimate"
Every word of this is true, says The
New Time. The complete subserviency
of the average Chicago paper to the
criminal rich of that city is positively
nauseating. Every crime with the ex-
ception of murder is suppressed if the
criminal belongs to Il Q Union League
Club or is an advertiser. A pork packer
steals 100000 worth of water from the
city and is detected. The facts are sup
pressed. A big merchant seduces his
stenographer and drives her to suicide.
The facts are suppressed. But let some
poor man or woman commit an indis-
cretion and the facts are blazoned to
the world So notorious are these facts
about Chicago newspapers that they
have lost their influence and have the
smallest calculations in proportion to
adjacent population of any in the Uni
ted States.

The Silver City Enterprise, in its
comments on Bronco Bill" one of the
alleged Belen train robbers and muir
derers, says: "Bronco Bill' has gen.
eral prestige throughout the territory
as an all-round bad man. A few years
ago he committed a crime in the Mo-
gollon camp and was sent to Jail at So
corro to await trial at the next term of
Jail and was next seen in Deming, where
he stood the officers off and escaped
after half an hours fusilade. He was
next heard of with the "Black Jack"
gang and then afterward, when the COW
boys now in Jail in this city were ar
rested for holding up the train at STEMS
pass, he organized band to come here
and liberate them. He came up from
the south with this band, crossing the
railroad between Sepai and Lordsburg.
The officials here were notified and had
warm welcome awaiting the gang.
They scented the danger and SHE'D off
into the Burro mountains, going thence
via the Frisco and Eagle creeks to Black
river. "Bronco Bill" has just made his
latest bow to the public in the hold-up
at Belen, and with his pal has sought
safety in their haunts at Black river.
He is stealing some of Black Jacks
prestige as the boss bandit Of the south.

reputation of the worst "bad man.

BRYAN y>:S>>A PLAN
Provides for immediate Mus
ter Out of Volunteers.

Washington, Dec. 1J.-Being approach
cd as to his attitude concerning the vol
untecr soldiers, Colonel w. J. Bryan to-
day expressed himself as follows:
The volunteers should be mustered
out at the earliest possible moment. They
enlisted for war when soldiers were
needed for active service and many of
them did so at great pecuniary and per-
soDal sacrifice. To hold them in the SER
vice for garrison duty would be n great
injustice. The Administration has ex-
pressed its intention or releasing the vol
unteeFsras soon as regulars can be Sc
cured to take their place, but the bill pro-
yiding for a permanent increase in the
regular army is likely 10 arouse discus
sion and delay the day of discharge.
Many believe that the army as it stood
before war was declared was large
enough for all domestic purposes. l share
in this belief. If the volunteers are TO
be held as hostages TO force a permanent
increase in the regular army prolonged
contest is unavoidable.
II think it would be better to recruit
temporary army of occupation to serve
in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines.
This would postpone the discussion as to
the regular army until more convenient
season. There is no imperative necessity
for action in regard to the regular army,
but there is need for immediate action
in regard to the volunteers. After the
army of occupation is recruited and the
volunteers mustered out Congress can de-
liberate upon the various plans proposed
and make provision for such regular
army as may be decided to be necessary.
Congress could fix a maximum and em-
power the President to recruit within
that limit as many as may be necessary
for an army Of OcupatiOn. The enlist
ment could be made for two of three
years unless sooner discharged. Before
the term OF service expires the country
will have a settled policy and can then
decide whether such an army is longer
required The bill could provide for the
reduction of the force at any time ana
for the enlistment of the natives at the
discretion of the President. In recruit
ing this army of occupation, preference
should be given TO the volunteers now
in the service and in order to encourage
enlistment companies and battaliOns
formed from the volunteer regiments now
in the service could be permitted to select
their own officers from among their as
associates now in the service The pay
of the pPivates and nOn-commissioned
officers in an army of occupation should
be considerably increased. over the pres
ent rate. Service in the semi-tropical re-
giOns is attended by 50 much danger
that increased compensation is both just
and necessary"
