 The discussion of the game law showed the unequal distribution Of quail in Arizona. In Navajo and parts of Yavapai counties, quail are SO scarce that they are imported, and stringent laws are desired for their protection. In the Gila valley they are so plentiful that they destroy the crops of grain, and members opposed any law to prevent the trapping of quail.

 number of organizations which paftic- l ipated in the border warfare in Mis- sOuri and Kansas were barred from tn ! general amnesty. Frank and Jesse
 James were members of QuantreiIs band of gUerrillas, and members Of this band were declared outlaws. The sequel was easily guessed. From gce = rillas the James boys became train robbers.

Persistent Advertising
Brings Success.
THE PHILIPPINES RECRUITS.

In oficering the volunteer regiments
for the Philippines the States Will, OF
course, have no share. The States are
to be left out of it this time. Every
officer appointed to the new regiments
will receive his appointment direct from
the administration at Washington.
The campaign for a second term is
coming on and the administration de-
sires to control all the patronage itself.
This is natural, and heaven knows the
administration needs all the support
it can rake and scrape together by this
or any other means.
The question of timely reinforcements
and the efficiency of the army are en-
tirely subjected to the political ne
cessities at home of the administration.
BY simply calling on the States and
accepting regiments as fast as offered,
200, 900 men could probably be raised in
time to be sent in frst-class order
promptly at the close of the rainy
season. But the administration ev-
identity prefers to have as little atten-
ton as possible directed to the raising
of an additional army for its own pet
war of conquest, and SO is quietly re-
cruiting the first installment at least
through the United States army re-
cruiting stations.
This attempted secrecy, however, is
not likely to avail, for it is but 10000
or so of troops the President is author
lied to call for under the army reorgan-
ization bill. These will scarcely suffice
to fill up the depleted ranks of the army
now in the Philippines. 1t will not be
sufficient to subjugate the Philippines.
According to the best military authori-
ty, it will take from 100, 900 to zoe, 900
more troops and hard fighting to do
that. Hence, when the President sue
ceeds of recruiting his army of rein
forcements of 10000 he will still be fac
ed with the necessity of raising prob
ably three times that number of addi-
tional volunteers.
The question is, would it not be the
best plan even from the political point
of view of the administration to get
this work under way at once to the end
that there may be no more bungling
such as accompanied the hasty mob
ilization of the volunteer army for the
Spanish war.
1t is work, according to the best in
formed military authorities, that must
be done. Will it increase Mr.. McKin-
ley's second term chances to delay the
enlistment of this army until near the
approach of the coming political cam
paign, when it will but serve to en-
phasize the iasco the administration
has made of this war of conquest I'D
to date? This is we'll meant political
advice for the o~ver-cautious and timid,
but tremendously ambition gentleman
in the White House.
