the people the Importance Of nomi.

Of the territory so far as we have
seen. has been made. If the people
don't nominate good men for the
Legislature they can not expect to
have good legislators or good laws,
but they can continue to have the
pleasure of cussing the Legislature
after its adjournment. If the poll
tical parties do not put up good
men the Gazette hopes the people
| when they come to vote will vote
for the best men they can find on
the tickets, regardless of what

THE ARTEsrAN BELT.

A few years ago if person
should have talked of developing
artesian water in the Gila valley
he would have been set down as a.
fit subject for the asylum. Yet,
notwithstanding the fact that all
Arizona was considered a desert
waste and that even artesian water
could not be found, some wells
have been developed in this valley
that prove conclusively the erron-
eousness of this view.
six miles from Stafford the Lee
boys have 100 acres of fine corn
growing from the use of water
from three wells, and if the water
| which runs to waste at night was
properly stored it would irrigate
as much again land. Several miles
further west at Cuffs ranch the
boys have developed three good
flowing wells and others in diff
ferent localities along the mesas
are preparing to bore wells.
In the Gila and San Simon val-
leys, which are practically one val.
Hey, there are hundreds Of thous-
lands ofacres of fertile land that can
be reclaimed and made to blossom
as the rose and furnish comfortable
homes and good living for thous,
ands of families through the de-
velopment of artesian water.
| 1t will not be long before hun,
dreds of wells will be flowing all
along the foot hills, because the
artesian water question is no long.
or an undeveloped problem but an
existing fact, As fast ms these
wells are bored just so fast will
new homes be built, adding to the
wealth and population of tn,
county.
The expense OF securing artesiar
water here is not great AS the
deepest well yet bored is not more
than about 500 feet, some not more
than 200, and the ground is of such
a nature that it has only bael
found necessary TO use casing to ,
depth of 80 or 40 feet.

Missionary's Experience in Texas

Lexington, Texas, Aug. Ia, 1900
DEAR EDIToR:I am just in re-
ceipt of one of your papers and l
assure you have scanned its pages
carefully for all of the home news,
for as Solomon says: GAS cold
water to thirsty soul so is good
news from far country"
There is no one that can realize
what Solomon ment better that an
Elder of the church laboring in the
missionary field.
Perhaps few lines from Texas
will be of interest to the readers Of
the GUARDIAN.
Ny labors have been in the
Austin, Texas, conference which
embraces the counties west of the
Brazos river and south of latitude
80. The eastern portion of this
conference is adopted to farming,
cotton and corn being the princi-
pal products, while in the west
stock raising is the principal pur-
suit.
The people are generally kind
and hospitable but as in all
countries we meet some that are
not willing to learn or listen and
when we ask them if we may leave
them tract they will say: "Yes,
sir, and leave them lively too but
leave them with the heels toward
the house,"
We find great many foreigners,
some having been here Is years
and cannot speak or understand
the English language.
| have had the privilege of visit
ing Austin and San Antonio, the
principal cities in our conference
and many more of minor import
ance. While at San Antonio
visited the old historic Alamo
where Crockett, Bowie aud Travis
with 369 soldiers made their brave
stand against the Mexican forces,
which resulted in the death Of all
the Americans present but the
women and one man, who escaped
by jumping over the walls and
making his way to the woods,
This incident is known in his
tory as the fall of the Alamo.
Texas, as a whole, is a wonder
full state. 1t is the hottest, the
coolest, the wetest and the dryest
The old Texans say that when il
rains it never quits and when il
quits it never rains.
There are more cows and less
milk, more hogs and less pork,
more wood and less fire, more
preaching and less religion, more
preachers and less christianity
than any state in the Union, com.
pared to population.
Rather than send armies and
money abroad to convert heathen
it is my opinion that that money
and muscle could be used to bet
ter advantage in building asylums
for the orphants and infrm and
converting the heather at home.
"Cleans first the inside of the
platter that the outside may be

Your faith by your works can
show;
Just take your pen and paper
And write and tell us so.

That klngdoml The constitution OF
Great Britain is not written. In
fact she has none. What she
claims as her constitution is an
absolutism. II means that might
makes right and that she can do
as she pleases anywhere at any
time. AT one time the king was
forced to sign what is known as
the Magma Charta and the bill of
rights, but our forefathers were
compelled to leave their native
land in order to find place where
they could enjoy those rights.
The king of England and the laws
Of parliament followed them, how
ever, with their doctrine of alb
solntism. We become part Of
British domain as our territories
are now a part of our domain. The
fathers finally revolted for the
very reason that those rights, lib
critics and privileges named in the
restrictions and limitations con-
tanned in our constitution to the
exercise of certain powers by CON
gress, were refused them. Is it
reasonable, then, to contend for
one moment that the people who
had revolted for such reasons
would have framed a constitution
that was not intended to protect
the rights and liberties of all the
people within the geographical
limits of our public domain? They
adopted written constitution
limiting the power of congress in
order that absolutism could not
enslave any portion of the people.
1t was their purpose, enjoying, as
as they did prior to the organiza-
tion ofthe national government, all
the rights and privileges they had
contended for during the revolu-
ton, to organize a Union states, to
permit the admission Of new states
and to permit the acquisition of
territory for the purpose of or
ganizing new states, and that over
the entire country, both states
and territories, the constitution
was to be the organic law, the
charter of their liberties.
| 1t is even contended by our
modern Hamiltons that the gov
ernment is not bound to provide
machinery necessary to run ter
ritorial government for the in
habitants thereof. This they base
upon their doctrine of Absolutism,
which means that congress can be
as mean in refusing to act as in
acting. 1t is certainly an elegant
doctrine. 1t may be that congress
can refuse to do its duty under the
inspiration of such doctrine, but
such a refusal is worse than treason.
| This doctrine of Absolutism
means that the constitution does
not extend to the territories by
virtue of its own strength, but by
reason of the acts of congress ex-
tending it to them. If it is true
that the constitution can be ex-
tended to a territory by an act of
congress, then congress must have
power to amend, withdraw or re-
peal the constitution whenever it
may so desire. If congress can ex-
tend the constitution it can with
draw the constitution. Such
pos;ti is not tenable and is but
quibble. The constitution extends
by right over every inch of ter.
ritory belonging to the govern
ment. Of course its provisions
cannot be very well enforced until
the official machinery is provided,
but the right to its operation ex-
lists whenever the people of any
territory demand that such official
machinery shall be provided for
its operation.

EXPLANATION OF
BRYAN'S POPULARITY

! That Mr.. Bryan has character,
eloquence and winning person
ality is not sufficient to explain
his extraordinary hold upon the
masses Of his followers. His lead
ership of his party is everywhere
unquestioned. No other party
leader Of our time has been the
subject of such intense devotion
With many of his followers il
amounts almost to fanatical per
sonal loyalty.
The explanation of Nh. Bryan's
popularity must be sought in O
cause which lies deeper than any
political issue. That cause is to
be found in a growing belief
among the people that theil
government is slipping away from
them into the control Of powerful
special interests. In their view
the tariff is the mother ofthe trusts
imperialism is costly crusade fol
political and commercial spoils
the government itselfis a citadel
of special privilege. They see in
the commercialism that has de-
bauched our municipal, state and
national governments the sufficient
cause of our political ill. Mr.,
Bryan peculiarly represents the
forces that seek to overthrow those
who have tried to turn the flag
into a commercial asset" His
admirers wish to destroy the in
fluence standing between the peo-
pie and their government. He re-
presents rising tide ofdemocracy
in kind like those of 1900 and
1928. One need not regard with
out apprehension all that such Il
movement involves to see in it
much that is good. Whether it is
now to succeed or fail, this move
ment embodies the true democratic
