TIE Tucson Star in'a recent issue con- tained half column editorial exhslting MT. Thacher, the, Wells-Fargo detective, and giving him the credit ot capturing the gang of train robbers who were re- cently rounded ur. Such "poppycock" a this makes the average citizen of Co., chise county smile, when it is known Tn every city, town and ranch in Cochise county that the outlaws were captured through the untiring efforts of the sher- ifs office, and especially those of Dep uty Sheriff Sid Mullen. As the ORB stated at the.. tune of the capture, when these high railroad officials, who ride Tn Rullman's when in pursuit of train robber, showed up, they would claim the credit of the capture. The people ei Cochise county know where the credit belongs and will let it rest there, and all of the puffs of Ihacher in the 6tAk will not remove it; but it may tend to give | false impression with those who are not acquainted with the facts.

POSITION OF Th.s PARTIES.

IN an address few days ago Secre- try oi the Navy Long askel what the
 democratic party has done in the last { four years to entitle it to the govern. snent and declared that it had done
 nothing. On the other hand, the re-
 publican party has faithfully carried
 oVt the principles of the platform upon
 which 1t was restored to power. The x tariff, said Mir. Long, has been wisely I adjusted, revenue has been ample, in 1 dustrial interests were never so pros
 perons, and labor was never 50 we'll re- wafded. The question of the currency
 and the money standard has been set
 tied andn settled right, and the whole country breathes with sense of relief and of content.
 It is true the democratic party is not in power, built stands to-day precisely where 1t did four years ago in regard to all the issues of that time. 1t still ad- heres to every doctrine and principle of ihe platform which the people then re- pudiatsd. Its leader and assured can ,didate for the presidsncy this year ia as ,zealous in his advocacy of the free com age of silver as. he has ever been; he is still engaged in arraying class against class and Tn endeavoring to foster the spirit cf sectionalism he continues to appeal to popular passion and pre- judice: The democratic party still stands for an economic policy that would halt Ameri- can industrial development and prove disastl ous to American labor. It is now as it has always been, the party of ob- struction, ard reaction. As to the new
 issues, it's outcry against trusts is ac' companied by no practical plan for reme tying the evil, while in regard to the iorign policy of the nation, it would
 if VIC may judge lt by the course of some

PORTO RICO RusINEss.

The effect of the new relations of the
United States with Porto Rico is plain
" perceptible in the commerce between
the United States and that island dur
ing the month of May. The Monthly
Summary of Commerce and Finance,
just issued by the treasury bureau of
statistics, shows that exports to Porto
Rico have more than doubled as COM
pared with the preceding May, and i'm
ports from the island have nearly dou-
bled- Exports to the island from the
United States in May. 1899, were 1905, 564
and in May, 1900. s6e6,479. The imports
into the United States from the island
in May, 1899, were $647,179, and in May,
1900. s., los, 1857. This increase is the
more remarkable because it had been
understood that the people of Porto
Rico had little to sell and little with
which to buy, since the hurricane of
last August had gone far to impoverish
the people of that island.
It is also interesting to observe that
the May commerce with Porto Rico
shows a much greater increase than is
the case with any of the other islands
With Cuba the commerce of May differ
ed little from that of May, 1899, and
this was also the case with the Hawaiian
Islands; while in the Philippine Islands
the imports show no increase, though
the exports show a remarkable gain.

OUT GOES STEVENS.
Head of COlOred Industrial In
stitute Is Deposed.

Edward Stevens has resigned as SUI
perintendent Of the Topeka Colored IN
dustrial institute. His resignation was
requested by the board of directors,
and is due to Stevens inability to get
along with members of his own race.
For some time Stevens has been con-
Quoting the affairs of the institute in
a way that did not correspond with the
ideas of other prominent colored 'citi-
zens Several weeks ago he appeared
before the board of education and made
charges against the colored school
teachers of Topeka which reflected on
their personal character. This in
creased the feeling against him, and an
indignation meeting was held at which
speeches were made denouncing him as
a traitor to his race. In consequence
the directors decided it was for the best
interests of the institute to get rid of
him.
Stevens resignation takes effect Sep
