SEEING THEIR ERROR

FTlhe British manufacturers of bolts
 and nuts complain that Ameriean
 manufacturers of like ar icIss are ru IT,
 ing the foreign market The Ameri-
 cans are not content with underb:d- | ding their British competitors, but they make deeper cuts in prices than
 the cCndiiCn of the market calls fir. | The competition of which these Brit
 ish manufacturers complain is of their
 own seeking. It is precisely the c2m- petition which tho cEen door invites.
 The worlds markets are opened to the highest bidider-that is, to the manu- facturer who ,c'ffers his gucds at the lowest price There is but one remedy fer this deplorable condition. That appears in the form of a prOt ectiya
 tariff. Let tI1ie sovereign power of each division of terTitcry impose du- ties on goods coming from ether coun-
 tries. The duties need net ba high. A low per cent will cover the difference between the ecst. of production in one country and another. Several of th4 British colonies have already to q Great Britain that the open door was mistake. They have put up doors for their own prclactfon. Tl3fey rea'izs that with the manufacturers lcf- the world competing fer their markets they can never establish marufactur- Ing IuuUSLTIES III Uu6lf UNn lGTf4t-Iy.
 So long as British manufacturers had foreign markets to themselves they could agree upcn prices that would r:- turn them handsome profit. But with CLher manufacturing nations crowding into the same markets the cheapest producer carries eff the prize.
 The fundamental objection to tke open door is that the competition i5 creates cuts down the rates Of wages and thus impairs the purchasing power eff manufacturing nations It reduces the cost of goods to semi-civilized peo- pie who buy comparatively lit le, and in so doing, takes from the people of highly civilized countries, who we uld buy much if they had the means, the ability t,-i buy literally Of their own production. An American man, and per haps more especially an American w.O- man, buys more of tEe arffc-al pco- ducticn thsa ten men CT ten women cf a lower grade Of civilizati0n.-Saa Francisco Bulletin.

THE ELECTION.

The taxpayers will vote today on the
 bonding proposition. If the election
 could be postponed a fortnight there
 would be no doubt of the result. The
 campaign of education that began only
 g week ago has resulted i'll many ac-
 sessions to the ranks of the progressiv-
 ists. Every point advanced by the
 water company and it's spokesmen has
 been ably me-. Facts and figures have
 been presented that attest to the value
 of the plan advanced by the city eoun-
 cil There hes been a good dell of
 representation by interested par
 ties, and it will be strange if it shall
 not succeed in giving the anti-pro- gressiVists a temporary triumph. If
 the result of today's election he un- favorable to the bond movement the discouraged. They have become con- 7inced of the soundness of their posi-
 tion, and they will no. rest until Phoe- nix is provided with a modern scheme of water and sewerage which shall place this town in the front rank of health resorts. Any unprej1diced man with good eyesight and nose, who can look about Phoenix and then vote against this proposition is, to say the least, standing in his own light. It has been demonstrated by the experience of hundreds Of American cities that municipal ownership of water works and sewerage makes for the profit and the hea Ith of the citizen. Phoenix more than any other town of it's class needs an abundance Of water and a sanitary drainage. This wl1 never be- come an ideal place of residence until it secures the Improvements now sought to be installed. The interest | displayed by the taxpayers in this question i'll the last week is gratifying. 1 the outcome of the election it may be set down as fact that Phoenix is awakening to it's needs in | the line O. public works This shall | yet be the queen city of the southwest despite the obstructive tactics Of some of it's taxpayers.

ONE MASTER IN CUBA

The Cuban insurgents did net cap- turo Santiago or cause the evacuation of Havana, tcr drive the Spanish op- pressor frtom the island. The Ameri- cans did all these things, and up n them devclves the duty of establish ing a stable government. Ample eyf- dence has already been given to show that the Cuban people will from the first be given charge of all the sub3r- dinate offices in the civil rule, and the mcment {tFf--ie ex-insurgents show them selves loyal to the new regime they will be rapidly enlisted fer garrison duty all over Cuba. They will get all the honors and responsibilities that they have earned, and mere; but 1t is absurd for this faction and fact cn of the inhabitants to demand CT ex- pect the place CT the tlcnor of supreme authority. Fer SanguilGy or Gcmsz CT any ether Cuban leader to ask fer th1s is to request the impfcssibility of a dual control Of the island.

SHOULD BE CONSIDERED.

Aguinaldo has an accredited agent in
 Washington. He has more or less
 money. The Philippine revolutionary
 committee of Manila and Hong Kong
 have money; it has been announced
 they are suing Consul Wildman for
 $47,000 of it, which (they say) he
 hasn't satisfactorily accounted for.
 Aguinaldo's agent is not the only Fili- pino visitor now in this country. They are not here solely for their health, nor
 yet for pleasure. They are watching events. They are watching the pro ceedings at Washington. They are
 taking notes. They are not unac-
 quainted with the existence and uses
 of the submarine cable. News that seems to them important is hurried off at once It makes it's way to the Phil ippines without any long delay.
 The proceedings at Washington arc attentively watched just now by more than one European cabinet. The news papers of more than one European country are giving more than usual space to their cable correspondents in this country. The interest in the politi- cal future of the Philippines is by no means confined to this side of the Wa ter. If we should decide to shirk our responsibilities, that archipelago would at once become an object of very great interest to two or three European gov ernments as well.
 All the reasons that existed in the early years of the republic for discuss ing treaties behind closed doors exist now, and there are new reasons. Then the report, or guess, went to Europe nn a sailing vessel Now it goes on the wings of the lightning. For news pur- poses, Landon, Paris, Madrid, Berlin, St. Petersburg, are nearer Washington than Richmond was in the times of the frs. presidents.
 If senators have anything to say which it is manifestly undesirable that Europe, or the FiIipinos themselves, should hear at this time, let them say it behind closed doors. Things of that sort have already been said in open ses- sion. It is unwise. It may make very serious trouble if persisted in. It should be stopped.
 We repeat that this country is not "annexing" the Philippines at present. There will be plenty of time for decid- ing upon our ultimate policy with re- gard to them. The business in hand now is the ratification of a treaty of peace, under which this country ac cepts the serious responsibility of de- termining their future. One of the clauses of the treaty is said to read: ''The civil rights and political status of the native inhabitants Of the territories hereby ceded to the United States shall be determined by the congress" A serious responsibility; a heavy respon- s1Dility. It is no time to be making unnecessary difficulties and dangers for ourselves by discussing matters in the hearing of all the world that should be discussed Gas the constant rule and use of hundred years require them to bel in executive session.

a Mos, Rascallr Legislative Trick.

Tho attempt to foist upon the State
law that would practically license all
kinds of gambling, which was dis
covered by Gov. Tunnel and is now
being investigated by the attorney
general, was a most rascally trick, and
ono that deserves to the fullest extent
the punishment provided by law for
this kind Of tampering with the work
Of ii Legislature.
There are many conflicting stories
with reference to this affair, but this
much is certain: There was sent to the
governor, for his consideration after
the final adjournment of the Legis-
lature, a bill which purported to pro.
vide q penalty against gambling, but
which fixed the penalty at $500, and
only one fine to be imposed in any one
year. The effect of such law could
readily be imagined. This bill came
to the governor in the form of an
enrolled copy, duly signed by the pre-
siding officers of both houses, as re-
quired by law.
The line of investigation in this case,
therefore, is Plain and direct. II the
bill was introduced, there must be a
record of the fact, and of who intro
duced it. The member who introduced
it should be the first witness on the
list, and he should be- required to tell
why he introduced it, and at whose
instance. Tho clerks of the two houses
should also be able to tell about its
progress through their respective
bodies, for, IL they do not have a
detailed record Of every bill that
passed, they must confess themselves
incompetent clerks. Then if 1T ap-
pears, as is said, that the bill did not
pass both houses regularly, but was
struggled through in an underhand
manner, the circumstances ought 10
show soms one who was responsible fol
such disreputable procedure.
1t was thought that the time fol
such attempts to secure vicious legis
lation were things of the past, as the
scandal of previous attempts was no
torious, and the Legislature passed ;
special statute making them punish
able by fine, pillory, whippingpost ant
imprisonment Now is the time tt
make practical application of thi
stringent statute.
