NOT A POLITICAL ISSUE.

AZ. Idaho exchange says that RS
British side of the Transvaal con-
troversy."
This may be true, but it doesn't
necessarily follow that all who side
with England are Republicans. Some
men are influenced by birth or bust
ness relations. Others are sct'Iated by
personal attachments and racial SYM
pathies. It isn't a party issue in this
country and couldn't possibly be made
one. 1t is to the credit Of those born
on British soil or under the British
flag that they still have warm place
In their hearts for the mother country
where its interests do not clash with
those OF their adopted land And it
speakes well for England. too, that
her sons and daughters. not only in
America but all over the world, are
hard to wean- 1t shows that there is
something in her rule to enlist the
patriotism and hold the love of all who
are born and reared within her bound
less jurisdiction
But there is another class of people
in this country who are not Influenced
by such excusable and legitimate con-
siderations-who would like to see Eng
land gobble the TranSvaal as a justifi-
cation for a similar procedure on the
part of this republic. 1t was this that
brought Mark Hanna home from
England two months ago with the
declaration that he liked the British
own There are men who naturally
lean towards Imperialism, who instinct
lively turn from democracy to CEN
fral;zation, who believe in militarism
and feel that we have outgrown our
national constitution and have lived
TO see the error of our Declaration of
Independence.
But it is mistake to thing that
every individual who sympathizes with
England in the present war is Re
publican or an imperialist. Racial
prejudice or national sympathy may
explain it with many. With The Herald
it is a matter of common justice;
desire to present the case of the weak
and poor, for the rich and powerful
have many defenders; and, after all,
it is a question of whether or not the
Beers have a right to govern their
own country in their own way, even
to the point of tyranny and the rails
ing of commercial barriers as high
as our Dingleyisrn, or whether the
British have right to repeal the laws
of the Transvaai government and en-
force statutes of English construc-
ton

1.-The Herald quotes from President
Polk some reasons for the Gadsden pur-
chase, the burden of which was that
the country west of ours would be ex-
posed to attack from foreign nations
and with our claim to the Monroe doc
trine, the peace of the country would
be put in jeopardy thereby. The Her
aid ought to read the answers made to
that argument says the Tribune.
Why should anybody read those an
swers? Were they not made by cop
perheads and traitors?" Were they not
the '.seditious literature of the Atkin-
sons and Loughlins of that day? Then
why should an administration organ
recommend them to its contempora-
ries?

General Albert d. Shaw, commander
in chief of the Grand Army of the Re-
public, delivered an address in New
York City the other day, in which he
paid the following eloquent tribute TO
the organization of veterans: THE
Grand Army of the Republic has had no
predecessor; it can have no successor.
Its record is among the deathless
treasures of our new national life. Its
history is one of unselfish sacrifices for
the whole country. Its just demands
should be heard by a patriotic people,
when it speaks for simple justice I'M
der the law 1t asks no more; it will
be satisfied with nothing less. Selfish
ness may weaken and ambition deaden
the old fires OF grateful patriotism in
some hearts where the comrades least
looked for such GOODNESS, but the eter-
nal ways of God to men are an aseur-
ance that righteousness will prevail,
and that full justice will be done the
aging heroes in whose interest l have
thus fully spoken. The whole Ameri-
can people are just enough and great
enough TO fulfil in peace all pledges
made in war to preserve their liber-
ties"

Chicago Inter Ocean.)
A family living in a north side fla: well
coined a new housemaid last week. The
girl had just come from Michigan and
her appearance was prepossessing. Soon
after her advent it was discovered that
she was inclined to treat the family with
patronizing air.
'Mary. you must do better, or 1 shall
have to find some one TO take your place"
the mistress remarked the other morn
ing.
Il don't allow any one to speak to me
that way replied Mary. with a toss of
her head. I'm just as good as you are
and / want you to know it.
Mary fiounced out of the room and re-
turned in two minutes with the weekly
paper from her town. Among the social
items was the following:
Miss Mary Hanson has gone to Chica-
go to spend the winter. Miss Hanson is
an acknowledged belle in the leading
circles of Sawdust Creek
Mary waited until her employer had
had time to read the personal, and then
she said with whitening scorn:
las have always been accustomed to
going with the best in my town. and as 1
don't believe you ever have your name
on the society page of the Sunday papers.
i guess can't afford to STAY with. YOU"
The north side woman declared the do
nestle incident closed.

the beneficial influence exerted by the city proper.
 Because of the fact that I own prop
 erty in the additions, I don't care to
 make fool of myself. Why, failure to extend our limits before the next census would make us the laughing stock of the territory. We had that eX- perience once, when Tucson, Prescott and Bisbee claimed a greater popula- ton than we had, and we could only muster 4,500 people If at that time the suburbs had been included, our population would have swelled two fold and we would not have suffered from the attacks of these rival cities
 There is no reason why property owners in the additions should fear to come into the municipality because of the fact that their property might be taxed a few extra dollars. In that way they hazard the value of their prop erty rather than risk a slight increase in taxation. But do not say that the rate of taxation will be greater. Larger income may be derived by the city, as it undoubtedly would; but in that case it will be on account only of higher actual valuation of property.
 These people who claim that they have helped build the city with their suburban property, could better state that they have improved additions merely as a business speculation. They do not manifest patriotism toward the city whose direct influence has en- hanced the value of their property.
 'I want my name recorded as one of those who heartily indorse the annex ation movement. I shall eagerly take of every opportunity which | will tend to promote it's interests, and | feel assured that in assuming that po- | sition, am in accord with the pro- , gTessive element of Phoenix"

A BLUFF AT SUICIDE.
MelQuiades Lopez's Attempt to Fill
 His Wife With Regret.

Melquiades Lopez, a barber, made a bluff at committing suicide in La Union saloon at the corner of First and Monroe streets yesterday evening.
 Lopez first went into the saloon and asked to see a revolver for the purpose of buying it, the bar tender handed him one which was not loaded. Lopez returned it, asking for another This one was charged for business. Lopez held it to the left side of his head and saying in Spanish, what means in Eng fish Here goes,' pulled the trigger. The ball tore Q hole through his hat and clipped his hair. Lopez suffered no other injury than a powder burned ear.
 Suicide is all right if it is successful, but mere would-be suicide, IS crimi- nal. The laws frowns on him for his unskillful effort which allows him to still cumber the earth. Lopez was therefore taken into custody by Con stables McClintock and Balz and taken to jail.
 He said he was drawn to this bluff by domestic troubles. He had not been getting along well with his wife He thought if she should know how nearly she had been the death of him she would mend her ways.

THE YAQUI RIVER.
Dave Iardenburg, a Late Arrival
 From That Eldorado.

Dave Hardenburg, who has been in Sonora for the last few years connect ed with the Yaqui River enterprise, in which H. H. Logan and other Phoe- nicians are interested, arrived in town yesterday morning. MT. Hardenburg' s location is remote from the railroads but he believes the Yaqui River is one of the coming regions of America. The agricultural possibilities are wonder ful and their development will be CO., incident with the development of com munication with the outside world. That will come through the introduc- tiOn of more American enterprises and capital There is no more fertile land anywhere than in the Yaqui River Valley. There is moreover an abundance of water and there is no possibility of frost or any other enemy of the agriculturist.
 A part of the tract in which the PhOenicians are engaged in developing is included in the proposed purchase by the Cherokees from the Indian Ter ritory. Notwithstanding telegraph and newspaper publications of the re- movaI of the Cherokees to Sonora, MT. Hardenburg says the negotiations for the land have not been closed and may not be for some time.
 Mining in that region is very active and is constantly increasing in activ- ity There is, though, very little placer mining and nothing at all is heard Of the wonderful finds which set the mining world on fire year ago, and even attracted gold hunters from Alaska.
 Since MT. Hardenburg was in Phoe- nix the Hotel Adams and the Ford hotel have been built and other changes taken place which have al most made the town unrecognizable.
 MT Hardenburg will return to s. nora in the course of a week.

What the Philadelphia Daily Item

Tt was altogether refreshing to the more or less jaded musical sense of the amusement patrons of this city when last evening they were afforded the op- portunity of listening to operat1c music of the old school and seeing a work in which there was a genuine fiavor,' says the Philadelphia Daily Item. ''The transition brought viv1dly to the mind of judicious hearers the tastelessness of the trash that in re cent years has been served up as ''comic opera but which in reality is usually a collection of jingles wherein comedy but thinly disguised buTlesque of more or less doubtful prOpriety and forced humor Flotow's fine )ld com position Martha" has not been heard in Philadelphia for d long time and it was the means by which timely sur cease was given from the stale and un- profitable stuff with which we have been regaled, and as the melOdiOuS airs followed one another in Inaltered and reminiscent beauty, the big au dience responded with spontaneous en- thusiasm and the opera house rang with applause and demands for repeti tions which were given with gracious compliance.

CASE OF QUICK ACTION.
ExLSheriff John Slaughter Tells of His
 Last Killing.

On Monday evening ex-Sheriff John H. Slaughter of Cochise county was telling our Bob LeatherwOOd, V. H. Igo and @ Tucson Star representative a thrilling story of his last hairbreadth escape It happened in October on the San Bernardino ranch, east of Bisbee some fifty miles There is a phone connection with Bisbe6 and this was an important factor in the transaction. A one-legged fellow named Finley had engaged a team in Bisbee, went to La Morita, in Sonora, gambled and sold the outfit He then stole a horse and rode in an easterly direction toward the San Bernardino ranch. Arriving there he met Mexican and told him he would pay SI0 for a fresh horse. The Mexican reported t0 MT. Slaughter, who started to meet Finley, but learned that the man had moved to point mile away. MT Slaughter then phoned to Bisbee and Justice Williams respond- ed: Finley is wanted. He is des- perate fellow and is probably well armed You are autholdzed to make the arrest"
 Calling the Mexican and another em-
