Union Single Mill Burned.

The Union Shingle mill, at South Alb
erdeen, was discovered to be afire by the
nightwatchman about 2 O'Clock Saturday
morning, and in short time was burned
to the ground, there being, as yet, no fire
protection OH that side OF the river.
The fire caught in the roof, presume.
bly,, from sparks from the smokes.ack,
and the Waterman was powerless. He
blew the whistle for aid, but as no vessel
had steam up, the fire department could
not reach the scene. Fortunately their
was no wind blowing, and the dry kiln,
containing 100000 shingles, escaped the
flames.
The mill was owned By Messrs. Hurl.
curt 4 Hackett, upon whom the loss falls
heavily. The value Of the building and
machinery destroyed is about $4,000,
upon which the insurance, as adjusted,
was $366S.S0, and which has been
promptly settled by the 4Etna & Svea
companies. Messrs. Hurlburt 4 Hackett
mao operated the mill about six years,
and, by strict attention to business and
the manufacture of ST, perior article, had
built up large shingle trade, and at the
time OF the fire were crowded with orders
at remunerative prices, SO that the loss
OF this seasons run is serious one OF
itself. to tine firm, besides the loss to the
community by throwing their 25 men
out of employment.
Hurlhurt 4 Hackett will, in all proba-
bility rebuild, but have not yet decided
whether or not they will use the same 10.

being there and the water system now
being extended to South Aberdeen may

MUCH exaggeration is being per petrated of the gravity of the Yaqui outbreak. It is sufficiently grave when the truth is told; but when column after column of pure im- agination is put forth as news and horrible news unneces- sary alarm is created. In the press telegrams in last Sundays papers there was a column from San An tonic, Texas, where an enterprising correspondent had put upon the wires a story taken from a letter received from someone i'll Sonora. It was full of false statements. Among others one to the effect that the Yaquis have plenty of money, having all saved the two hundred dollars given each of them at the treaty at Ortiz in 1897. A pretty story; but two dollars was the amount given each Yaqui at that time--not two hundred. The writer stood within ten feet of Vice Gov ernor Figueroa when he paid out the money, and knows whereof he writes. But the story is fair sample of the rubbish now finding its way into print.

THE impartial reader of the his tory of the United States cannot fail to note that the people have al- way mistrusted the patriotism of the anti-war party.

PHILLIPINE PROBLEMS.

government or the Cll1tcu StdteS, III annexing the Philippines, have an nexed some peculiar problems, and to the curiously inclined there will be no little interest in watching development of the policy which will be adopted in their solution.
 For instance there are the Sulu Islands, a portion of the possessions which were transferred by Spain under the treaty of Paris, the sultan of which island dependency, who is an absolute monarch, has accepted the transfer of sovereignty, and ad- monished his people to bow to American authority. Upon the part of the United States the commis- sioners sent to treat with the Sultan of Sulu have agreed to retain him upon his throne and pay him an annual salary of twelve thousand dollars. It looks rather peculiar to see republic sustaining and main taining within its territory an ab- solute monarchy. But then, appear ances can be maintained by calling the potentate governor of our new territory of Sulu, and each succeed ing administration reappoiuting him for that office, as was the case with Brigham Young, in Utah about hftv years ago. There will be no trouble upon that score.
 Among other concessions made the Sultan is an agreement upon the part of the United States that local habits and customs shall not be molested. But are we going to allow the Sultan to live i'll peace with his numerous wives aud con- cubines and at the same time pro secute old Angus Cannon, presi- dent of the Mormon hierarchy be- cause the lady state senator, Mrs. Matte Cannon, and fourth wife of the Honorable Angus, recently gave birth to child9 Why should the American government and peo- pie suppress the local custom of polygamy in Utah and recognize it in the Su1u Islandsl But to sup press this religious custom and it is no less a custom of religion in Utah than in Suhl--would no doubt lead to protracted foreign war in that part of our new domain where peace prevails.

TO EXPLOIT RESOURCES.

ole have set in motion the machin- cry necessary to take advantage of the law passed by the last legisla- ture creating a commissioner of inn migration for Maricopa county, to advertise its resources, look out for investments and induce investors to examine the opportunities present. ed, and to inaugurate and develop a propaganda which will stimulate the inflow of capital and the develop ment of scores of industries for which the imperial county ot the territory offers a fruitful held. Prominent business men have organized board of trade and that organization has raised fund or three thousand dollars annually to be devoted as an auxiliary to the work of the commissioner. The act creating the office authorizes the county to pay the commissioner an annual salary of six hundred dol lars and to appropriate twenty-five hundred dollars to the expense of his office. This, with the sum pledged by the board Of trade, makes an annual allowance ot six thousand dollars to be devoted to the grand work undertaken, and the results will return manifold values. In response to a petition from the board of trade, reinforced by a strong petition from the farm CTS of the valley, the board of sup ervisors has appointed as commis- sioner a gentleman of energy and wide experience, and he will in- augurate and conduct a compre- hensive scheme which cannot fail of profound results.
 It is unfortunate that the legis- lature did not see that what IS so good for Maricopa county could have been extended to other coun- ties with proportionally good re- suits. Every county in the terri tory has virgin resources which could be developed greatly by ap- plication of comprehensive plan such as is now inaugurated in Ma ricopa. Santa Cruz county, with her vast, virgin mineral resources, would be greatly benefited by a comprehensive and united effort by her citizens to make known to the world at large the resources here lying dormant. The law does not 7
 authorize the board of supervisors to assist in such work; but the business men could and should or ganize board of trade to take the work in hand and accomplish a world of good. And the next legislature could be induced to enact a statute authorizing the county to help. This is a move ment which should be taken in hand. and which could be made a grand success by intelligent, active effort of all our citizens. Who will ,,,ove in the matter2
