morning, the government would not consider the needs of a valley having property worth at least thirty millions. Arizona might in time secure an appro- pr:ation, but the present generation would not enjoy it. We have been working for statehood for years, but it is still far from accomplishment. Ari- zona lacks the leverage in congress nee essary to bring the money the theorists say should be employed here. He who thinks otherwise is doomed to disap- pointment.
 There are people enough and there is money enough in the Salt River valley to solve the water storage problem. Let us vote bonds and give capital to un- derstand that we have faith in our pos- abilities. The reservoir proposition will then be a business proposition and the great work will be undertaken and pushed to success.

At his own request, General James H. Wilson is to be transferred from Porto Rico to China. General Wilson is brave and able officer and has an ample personal acquaintance with China, having lived there some years and written valuable book about the country. He made a record for himself in the civil war, sustained it in the late Cuban affair, has done admirable work since peace was restored, and will take to China qualities that carry success with them. .

 CASE. turn to the lack of
 water. Let a half dozen business men meet and some one will declare that with plenty of water this would be one of the most desirable re- gions for business in the United States. Everybody in the valley knows this. Everybody knows that there has been a tremendous loss in the last year through the scarcity of water. Some ranchers are unable to get water except for stock. There are many cases of men selling out and leaving the country because of the inadequate water sup ply. Why. then, should the taxpayers of the valley, who have thrown their stakes here, who have everything to gain through the building of a great reservoir, assume an impassive atti- tude? Water storage may be brought abort if they will exert themselves.
 The Republican believes that success lies in the direction it has indicated through :ne bonding of the county for at least a half million dollars, the bonds to be exchanged for preferred stock in the reservoir company, the transaction to be so hedged about with restrictions that the interests of the county will be amply protected. There can be no harm in following this plan until it can be shown whether or not it is feasible. The capitalists whose aid will be solicited will not require much time to come to a decision once the fact is demonstrated that the coun- ty is willing to lend substantial aid to
 
 the enterprise. If capital will not deal fairly by the county then the plan of aid through bonds may be dropped.
 The interviews thus far presented by this newspaper have been very encour- aging. Bankers, merchants, profess sional men. farmers and stock men-all of them taxpayers have declared themselves in favor of The Republicans plan. In the next thirty days the views of hundreds of resi- dents of the valley will be solicited and we have faith that the majority of these people will lend a helping hand The attempt to discoura ge the movement by the advocates of national aid cannot amount to anything. The federal aid propaganda has succeeded after ten years effort in securing a small appropriat ton froEl the congress for surveys of reservoir sites. The money will be expended in Wyoming or Mon- tana or Colorado or California. Ari- zona will not get cent of this appro- pfiation. If the government should decide tomorrow to build reservoirs in the arid regions the western states thai have strong congressional delegations would cause the money to flow into their respective states. The idea be- hind the government aid movement i. Hto bring unproductive lands into culti- vation. As we pointed out yesterday

WHAT TSAI covets no Chinese terri
 AND DIR. tory. President McKin- HOLLAND ley has just reminded
 DID. Europe and Asia of that
 fact. If the Chinese em- pire is carved and appropriated by other and land-hungry nations, it will be because the diplomacy of the United States is unable to avert the result.
 The Suns correspondent at Washing ton has got hold of an interesting story. MT. Wus first predecessor as Chinese envoy to this country brought with him in his official family a bright young fellow named Tsai Sin Yung, well born and well bred, a scholar according to Chinese notions (having passed his ex- and a graduate of Dr. Martins college at Pekin. Between this young fellow and Dr. Edward s. Holden of the naval observatory friendship sprang up. One day the doctor asked him why the envoy had been sent to this country, and Tsai answered that his errand was to make a treaty between the president and the emperor. He thought it was as simple as that. When the doctor ex- plained to him the place and function of the senate in our system, Tsai was dumbfounded. He had known nothing about it and the envoy was no wiser.
 Tsai decided to study the constitution of the United States. The doctor prom ised to help him. The correspondent writes:
 For many months the Chnaman and the American met daily. Each provision of the constitution was care fully explained and discussed and then written down, with a commentary; on a subsequent day the Chinese transla- ton was rendered back into English and again discussed until all was clear. Doubtful points were referred to Fred erick W. Whitridge, Esq, of the New York bar, in writing. or, occasionally, to Mir. Justice Bradley of the supreme court. Finally the document was com pletely and satisfactorily translated.
 
 as an official dispatch to the Tsung Lii Yamen in Pekin. A copy Of it was deposited by President Holden in the library of the University of California. where it now is. On TsaTs part it had been a labor of love and on his return to China it won for him official ad- vancement in rank and place. His American coadjutor was glad to give a portion of his time every day for near ly year to this public service, which has resulted in making the high off cials in Pekfh understand the United States of America as they understand no other country"
 The story is interesting not only in itself, but in it's suggestions. The rabid fury that tramples on international law and slaughters innocent foreigners must be restrained and overcome at all costs. The nations that have been rob- ping China, and almost openly planning further and larger spoliations, are not guiltless in the premises. It will be a dark lookout for the world if the saner, more intelligent and prudent Chinese statesmen do not presently-with civil ization's help-get control again at Pekin. That event happening. to what country are they more likely to turn for | friendly counsel and moral support than to the country which they under stand best, which never robbed them, and which has just declared anew that it will not look on at the forcible dis memberment of China with approval or unconcernedly?
