REGARDING ARRESTS
How They Nay or Hay Not Be Ex-
 penSiVe 10 inc City.

The main argument made by the i friends of Marshal Hooker in favor i of his reelection is that the arrests
 made by him have been so few that
 the city has been put to very little ex-
 pense. The argument might be carried farther and it could easily be shown that if he had made no arrests at all there would have been no expense.
 But arrests may be made profitable
 instead of expensive to the city if they are rightly managed. A com
 parison of Marshal Rockers record for two years and that of Officer Mol
 Joy for sixteen months sets forth the following interesting facts:
 During MT. Rockers s incumbency as marshal his name appears as the ar resting officer or as participating in an arrest 106 times, and the total amount paid into the treasury from fines and forfeited bail resulting from those 106 arrests aggregate $93.40. It cost one dollar to try each case in the re- corder's court, showing a net loss TO the city of $12.60. Possibly MT. Hooker may claim that he is entitled to the credit of arresting the female inhabitants of block fl, who paid a monthly fine of $5 each during his term up until July, 1898. But their ar rest was only legal fiction, and they never were arrested by any one. but voluntarily sent the $5 each month 10 pay what was really license levied ny the city council.
 During Tom Molloy's term as pub lie officer sixteen and one-half months, his name appears 621 times upon the prison register, and the amount actually paid into the city treasury as the direct result of those 621 ar rests aggregates S1,20S.4O, and there are appeals pending in the district court involving $65 more in fines, Ivy hich, if won and paid will make grand tctai of $1,273.4O, pr a net gain of $625. 40 ito the city on the trial of all of Monoy's cases, to a loss of S1260 for MT. Rockers cases. Evi- dently MT. Hooker's arrests have been the most expensive to the city.
 Twenty and six-tenths per cent of MT. Rockers arrests paid fines, and over thirty-six per cent of Molloy's paid f1nes-a further proof that MT. Hooker made expensive arrests.

Mr. Winsor intends to prosecute his work in the valley at first and when hot weather comes to leave fer the mountains about Flor ence. ''Of couTa9 we can not always have these things to suit ourselves. '' he said, tbut if 1 don't receive ad verse instructions from the depart- ment I shall leave for the mountai0F in the hot weather"

THE ROAD TO GLOBE
Only a Gap of Eight Miles Re
 mains 10 Be Built.
BuH # Is fhe Most Difficult on inc Route and Ills Essential Thai Ii Should Be Done Before the liar. VeStIRa Season Sets in.

The proposition to build toll road
 between Mesa and Globe is now fairly before the people of this valley Twelve miles of road has been completed between Globe and Pinto creek. This portion was constructed by the Black Warrior Copper company, of which MT. James A. Flaming is president. MT. Fleming appreciated the need of a road connecting Phoenix with Globe and it was due to his ex- ertions that the chief obstacles in the way of direct route were overcome He did the work in pursuance of an agreement whereby the people of this region were to construct the remain ing portion of the road.
 There is now but eight miles of road to be built This stretch covers the difficult Pinal mountain DOT tion of the route. From Mesa to the beginning of the noun ~+ain division there is but little to dc, as a good roadway across the des- ert to Pinal has existed for many years. Below is given a list of sub scribers to the stock of the toll road It will be seen that the Mesa poOpl6 have contributed $1,260 in cash. It will require $3,50O to complete the road. It is expected by the promoters of the road that the merchants Of Phoenix and others who ought to be interested in quick transit to Globe will contribute the necessary $2,300 in cash or it's equivalent. If this sum is forthcoming within the next fortnight the road can be completed inside of sixty days. If there is delay in rais- ing the money there will be difficulty in securing men to work on the road as harvesting is soon to begin and the men who might be secured now will be engaged in farm work
 Another argument in favor of the immediate completion of the road is that it will be possible to transport 5 good portion of the summer products of the valley across country to Globe. It is the intention of the promoters Of the road to put on a line of stages as soon as possible and make the trip from Mesa to Globe inside of a day There is a magnificent country lying along the route and promising mining camps are springirg up throughout the Pinto creek and Webster gulcb regions. Globe itself is now growing at very rapid pace. There are fully 1,500 men employed in the mines and smelters there and the monthly pay

LEvELING THE COUNTRY.
Arrival of a Member of the U. s. Geo.
 logical Survey.

Thomas Winsor of the United States geological survey arrived yesterday from Texas and is stopping at the Commercial His purpose is to ascer- tain the elevations of many places in the territory, particularly places Of mineral deposits, from which a map will be draughted. MT. Winscr brings with him a complete outfit including four mules and he will commence his work as soon as a party of five men is selected The work requires few other instruments than 8, spirit leveler and barometer will be used in no instance. He will compare his es- inmates with some standard datum not established by a barCm
 eter. and from that basis, the work will be carried on accurately over each section covered Mir WinSr0r says that within a few years he believes the country from one ocean to the other will be embraced by the U. s. geological survey and a very cCrnpre- henSive map will be compiled. He understands tl-3t there has already been some geological work done about Florence A toRegrsphical party will arrive here in about a year and 1t will be followed by a party of government geOlCgists.

nobody knew how many were on the
 list in the afternoon. MT. Prescott said he had not seen it since morning and he remembered then it contained
 527. Others had seen it later and there were more. It was at length 1 estimated that there were altogether about 1,060. Everybody present un- derstood that this was all guess work, but that the figures were probably somewhere in the neighborhood of the real number.
 When the list was gone over on Monday it was found that there were twenty-one names which had not been counted in while the guessing was go- Ing on. They had been brought in in the afternoon, but were not put on the list. Andy ThCman, the most active Of the democratic registrars, had four teen names brought in some time in the afternoon or the evening. They were not part of eicher the 27S names brought in at half past eleven nor had they yet been entered on the afternoon list. On Monday the democrats brought in four names which they swore in, saying the names had been taken before the expiration of the registration, but had been put into Selim Michelson's safe and forgotten. Thus there were thirty-nine votes which were not considered in the guess Ing of Saturday night, only one less than forty, the number which the democrats charge the recorder and assessor with having raised the list.
 Mir Thoman, a democrat, who had every opportunity to keep tab on events and did SC, was present OF Sat urday night when the guess was made
 
 that it was a definite announcement of the real umber or that anybody on eartsl knew what the real number vas Neither Mir Prescott nor Mir Jobs knew any more about the matter than he did, and he does net join in the accusation that anything irregular mas been done.

the aid of any other nation on earth. l Therefore, the democratic candidates are under weighty responsibilities. They would be untrue to their local
 party, untrue to their territorial party,
 untrue to Gel. Bryan and untrue to themselves, if they should go into this
 struggle under any other banner than
 a '16 to 1" dollar. It is true that the
 democratic candidates for mayor,
 marshal, recorder. assessor and tax
 collector the treasurer, the council
 man from the First ward and the
 councilman from the Second ward, are
 also pledged to bust the trusts and to
 arrest the tendency toward imperial
 ism in this country. These additional
 responsibilities could not of course be conveniently signified in the vignette
 but voters enjoy an assurance that
 they will be discharged just as fully and as thoroughly as any of the other things to which the candidates have been pledged. If the remonetization of silver immediately follows the Phoenix city election, the American troops will also at once be withdrawn from the Philippines and the trusts will proceed to disintegrate.
 The sOcialist-labor vignette is the significant Arm and Hammer" This is the discarded local democratic de- sign and was used by the Phoenix faithful until about three years ago, when they joined Col. Bryan in his various schemes for reform. After that the Arm and Hammer" design represented too circumscribed a field and the Phoenix democracy got too busy saving the country from gold sharks and monopolists to engage as a party in hard physical labor, hence the Arm and Hammer" was thrown aside
 The republican column is the first on the ballot the democratic second and the socialist-Ia'bor last There is the square under each vignette, a cross in which is vote for the straight ticket There is a square in front of the name of each candidate, and a cross in it is a vote for that candidate. Care should be taken beforehand to instruct the voters, for under the decisions of Judge Street in the Bark-Murray case the regulations of the Australian sys- tenn must be closely followed For in stance, a cross beside the square does not count, though the voters inten- tiOn be evident. A cross in the square and another before the name of candidate makes a dead ticket There should be enough sample ballots in the hands of men who know how to use them to instruct every voter lD the city who does not know, for it Is quite certain every slightly irregular | ballot will be rejected in the count.

BALL-BEARING TYPE-BARS,

roll amounts 70 about $1O0,OG0. With
 ! gCCd toll road, kept in good repair he merchants of Phoenix ought to be able ito build up a profitable trade
 with the Globe district. Every brancE 0f industry here would be benefited by
 he construction of such road. There
 are seasons when farmers with a sur plus of produce would find it to their
 advantage to drive to Globe and dis
 pose of it. Every dollar they would
 bring back to the valley would be
 spent in the valley. The establish
 nent of a thorOughfare of this char
 acter would tend to build up the ad-
 iacent country.
 MT. w. A. KimbaH of Mesa, who
 has been one of the leading spirits in he Globe road project, returned from ] trip tc Globe two days ago. He said yesterday to a Republican reporter hat he had become if possible more thoroughly convinced of the value of such a road. There is a constant growth in mining activity in the Globe district and thousands of dollars will be spent this season for supplies. Mr. Kimball says the major portion of these supplies would be purchased in the valley if they could be moved to
 
 people of Globe would like to see the road built and hope that the Phoenix and Mesa merchants will take hold of the matter and push it to a speedy completion
 MT. Kimball called on Phoe- nix merchants yesterday and se- cured a few contributions. There will be a meeting held in this city in a few days for the, purpose of arousing public interest in the road. The Re publican will give due notice of the time and place of the meeting, and 1t is expected that every business man who wants to see the trade of this town increase will attend and lend his aid in securing the necessary amount to make the road certainty.
 Here is a copy of the agreement be- tween the Black Warrior company and the incorporators of the road. and list of subscribers to the stock of the road:
 Whereas, w. A. KimbaIl, D. ], Craig, T. A. Pascoe, D. A. Abrams and James A. Fleming, did on the 18th day of February, 1899, file with the secretary of Arizona, articles of incorporation for the Salt River Valley and Globe Toll Road company, capital S50,000.00; JOsVOO Si1clI SSs pal FdIuC 1I.UO, duu file a copy of said articles and map of route with the county record CTS of Pinal and Gila counties; he Black Warrior Copper com pany agrees to build said road from Globe west to Pinto creek, and take for it's pay 26,OOO shares of the toll road company stock; the bal ance of the stock to be sold at 50 cents per share to raise money to build said road, from Hewitt's ranch to Pinto creek; said stock to be received by the toll road company at par for toll, and l presented properly endorsed:

A GREAT FREN CHMEN.
The New President of the Frenc
Senate


Senate.
The new president of the French
| senate, Clement Armand Fallieres, has
been political factor for over twenty
years, although he is only So years OF
age. He was elected to the chamber
of deputies as a Republican in 1876.
and in 1880 was under secretary of
state. When Carnot became president
of the republic, the first prime min
lister he thought of was Fallieres, and
he asked him to form a cabinet, in
which the latter failed to succeed.
Nevertheless he became a membeI. OF
three cabinets under Carnot's presi-
dency. That would be enough 10 show
what kind of a man he is. But his
whole career shows it as well. While
his first chief, Jules Ferry. was unable
to be chosen as prime minister for fear
of the animosity of his foes, Fallieres
who belonged to Ferry's whole minis
try and was genuine opportunist was
locked upon as an excellent choice,
which nobody could fairly resent. From
1880 to 1889 he has been eight times
member of the government. He has
been once prime minister and minister
of foreign affairs GS83), twice minister
OF public instruction 0SS3 and 1880.
twice minister of justice GS87 and
1922 and three times he has occupied
the ministry of the interior. in 1850
1882 and 1887. He is not a fine-looking
president. He is somewhat too stout
100 fat and too heavy. and the cartoon
lists have often taken him as their tar
get. But he is an orator of great skill.
Moreover, he is a man of absolute in
tegrity, whose whole career is above
suspicion. Nothing is more important
for great body like the senate which
has sometimes to face unpopularity,
than to be represented by man whose
character is unquestionable. and whose
purity cannot be assailed

IOWA PEOPLE GO TO CANADA

Two-Thirds Of One Crop.
w. r. Milburn, John Holmes, NJ. R.
Dagger, E. l.. Stetson, of Buena Vista
county, Iowa, report as follows CT the
Canadian North West as to it's suit
ability for farming, and the advan-
tages it offers to the agricultural i'm
migrant from the United States:
I'VE came here solely to look up i'm
proved farms and, if suitable, to Sc
lect such as pleased us best. We have
not visited the homestead districts at
ali, though we believe them to be very
inviting. Our inquiries have been
confined solely to the district around
Hartney Deloraine and towards the
Souris River in Manitoba. Our i'm
pressions of all that region are in
every way satisfactory, and we have
decided to go back to Iowa at once,
and, having disposed of our several
interests there, to return to Manitoba
in the month Of March next, ard. eff
fecting our purchase of improved
farms, which we find we can do at
reasonable rates, Immediately begin
farming. We are greatly Pleased with
all that we have seen in that part Of
Western Canada. The soil We find to
be more than equal to that of our own
country for wheat-growing. and the
markets. etc, are all that we could
wish for.
"To show what an energetic man
can do we NAV mention that we found
one such at HartEey who had rented
a farm on shares receiving two-thirds
of the returns as his share of the
crop. When he came to sell his own
produce he found that his two-thirds,
when converted into cash, was enough
to buy the farm he rented out and
out. which he accordingly did, and is
nov its owner It is our intention to
induce as many of our friends as pos
sibIe. who are practical farmers to re
move from Iowa to this country
where we believe there is better
future for the Industrious man than
is now to be found anywhere on this
continent We are we'll known in our
part of the state of Iowa. and We In
wife correspondence from its residents
in all parts wah regard to this re-
g;on Of Western Canada which we
have visited. and to which we intend
to return
