State Department. The treaty was signed
prior 10 the opening Of the Fifty-sixth
Congress and was submitted to the Senate
in December 1899 II at once encountered
opposition in that body. but after consider
able delay was ratified after several amend
ments had been adopted. The chief issue
was made on what is known as the Davis
amendment. While in terms this did not
give the United States a right 10 fortify
the canal. yet in general language it ex-
pressed the right of this country 10 adopt
such measures in regard TO the canal as
were deemed necessary for the proper
maintenance of American authority. After
extended debate in executive session this
and two other amendments TO the treaty
were adopted and the treaty was ratihed
as amended The two other amendments
abrogated the Clayton-Bulwer treaty ana
struck out the provision of the treaty whleh
invited other foreign governments TO eA-
press their approval Of it,
AS the amendments created conditions
which the British government had not con-
Cured in when the original treaty was
made, it was necessary 10 present the IN
strument, in its amended form, 10 that gov
ernment for its approval. 1t is understood
that cne moving consideration in the minds
of the British statesmen who considered
the answer TO be made was, their deter
mination affected not only Great Britain
and her interests in the canal, but all the
maritime nations of Europe and OF the
world at large, as the complete neutraliz-
ing of the canal under the terms would
have the effect of comforting the same
rights and usage to Germany, France and
other nations that were enjoyed by Great
Britain. 1t was rather in the character
of trustees for the maritime nations that
the amended treaty was considered. Fur
thermore, an important consideration was
to the effect Of the new instrument in
completely wiping out the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty and the rights which Great Britain
claimed under that document. Some of the
British statesmen held that there should
be a quid pro quo If British claims under
the Clayton-Bulwer treaty were surren-
dered. 1t also was held that Great Britain
had certain vested rights in Central Amer
lea, which had given place to the Clayton
Bulwer treaty so that if the treaty was
to be succeeded by something less substan-
tial, then the old vested rights Of Great
Britain were obliterated without any ade-
quate return. At the same time, the under
standing here is that the sentiment of
British officials was TO avoid a breech or
issue with the United States, and If pos
sible to arrange common basis of agree
ment.
In some British quarters il was held
that too much friction already had been
caused by this canal issue, and that since
the United States was willing to invest the
hundreds of millions of dollars required
for the canals construction, and then ad-
NIT to it the commerce of Great Britain

The Bullion BarOnS
Fight Their Taxes,

TOMBSTONE, Sept, 10-Cochise county
has confronting her a remarkable and
serious condition Of affairs. Through a
suit filed last week in the District Court,
apparently she has been placed IN the
awkward position Of having to pay the
Territory for the next few years thous.
sends OF dollars per annum more than
the revenues that will accrue through
the collection of taxes--and, possibly,
with no recourse.
The suit, filed by the Copper Queen
Mining Company OF Bisbee. seeks an in
junction against the Supervisors. re-
straining them from collecting taxes on
the property of the corporation at the
valuation set by the assessor, something
over four millions of dollars. Other
companies, assessed at about 81 500, 600,
have joined with the Copper Queen in
the suit. This leaves only about $2,-
SOC, 900 Of assessed property from which
to collect the revenue of the county till
such time as the mining companies have
succeeded in exhausting the ingenuity
of their lawyers and have run through
all the courts OF the land or have sue
ceeded in winning their case through
its merits or through the finding Of q
not unlikely flaw in the method OF as
sessment. On the two and half mil
lions the county treasurer will receive
about 10000 in tax payments. The
first change upon the income is the pay
ment OF the rate fixed for territorial
purposes, namely. $l,17 on each 800 of
valuation. This will call for S87 900

Mosquito Plague
In the Oil Country.

BEAUMONT. Tex Sept. 10-There is no
relief from the mosquitoes yet. They
steadily seem to be growing numerous
and more vicious. Reports from those
who visited Port Arthur yesterday are
to the effect that at that place they are
simply uncomfortable. Even at Spindle
top it is almost impossible to work, for
the mosquitoes, and there is sufficient
number in the city to make it uncom-
Portable for those who are out in the
evening. This is the first time the
small, black, saltwater mosquito has
ever wandered this far inland and there
is hope generally expressed that they
will never come again. In the marshes
along the route OF the Lone Star and
Crescent pipe line, it is reported that
there is not the slightest falling off in
the number, and cattle are suffering
terribly and some deaths have been re-
ported. 1t is difficult to get men to
work on the pipe line and even more
difficult to work even after men are Sc
cured to go there. 1t is expected that a
general sweeping wind from the south
will drive them away.

The Copper Queen is contesting the
assessment on the ground that 1t Is ex-
horbi'ant and unjust. Its attorneys
point out that tho assessment is greater
than the valuation put upon all the
other mines of the Territory, inclusive
OF tie great United Verde at Jerome.
the Clifton, Morenci and Globe copper
mines, and the great gold mines at Con.
eress and Fortune. The question of ac-
tual valuation seems to be little consid-
cred, for the Copper Queen is popularity
supposed to pay 8 per cent. net on an
Investment Of at least sixty millions.
The company's officers have made a
proffer OF taxes on valuation OF $780,

sessment of last year, but the offer was,

THE ST. LOUIS FAIR.

The Worlds Fair to be opened
at St. Louis on May l, 1903, to
commemorate the centennial of the
purchase of the Louisiana territory
may now, be said to have full Off
cial existence.
Coincidont with the President
ial proclamation a statement was
made by the chairman of the arch
itects and director of works of the
Exposition company that the cost
of the new enterprise will exceed
$50, 100000, and that without
doubt it will exceed in size, scope,
beauty of buildings and grounds
any exhibition hitherto held in any
part of the world.
The financial part of the under
taking appears to be assured, for
already sl6,OoO,OOo of the sum re-
quired is in hand. OF this the
United States contributes $780,
600, st. Louis $5,0O0,O00 Missouri
81 100000, and the subscriptions
to date exceed S., 100000. Eleven
hundred acres of the most pictures
que land around st. Louis have
been set apart for the Exposition
grounds, and AGO acres of this are
to be occupied by buildings and
other attractions.
These figures indicate that the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition
will hold about the same relative
position toward the Columbian
Exposition, as that vast enterprise
in Chicago held toward the Cen
tennial Exhibition of Philadelphia.
The sooner thisi is realized through
out the country the better it will
be for the enterprising merchants,
manufacturers and producers.

NEGRO OUTRAGES.

IT cannot have escaped the 1T
tention of any intelligent person
that assaults by negroes on white
women, North and South, are stead
lily on the increase.
There is no doubt, that there
has been within a dozen years a
marked increase in the crimes
against life and virtue in the
South. This is a new develop
ment. The negro was no such
man before. He was respectful,
good-natured, obedient and on al
most every plantation where he
found forced employment he won
the affection of his masters and
their families.
Now he seems to have forgotten
all allegiance and to be the victim
of his passions. Not only has he
grown idle without prescribed en-
ployments, not only does he dice
and drink too much, but he has
become creature of violence, raw
isher and murderer and outlaw
His former friends now fear him,
and isolated homes are not regard
cd as safe without watch dogs,
hounds of chase and wakeful peo-
pie on the premises armed with
rifles.
If the tendency to savagery is
greater than the tendency to rise
from his ancient condition and
better himself in such places as the
schools of Hampton and Tuskegee,
Heaven help the negro, for there
must be a war more bloody and
bitter than the Civil War, that
was fought on his account.
In parts of the South where
convictions have been secured in
orderly process the people live in
daily fear, whereas in those quart
ers where the lynchers have made
their power felt the white resid-
ents believe themselves safe. The
condition is deplorablo. The peo-
pie visit upon law breakers worse
breaking of the law. If the courts
cannot be made efficient it may
come to the pass that all negroes
will be required to remove from
American soil, to which they were
brought against their wills, end if
they do not so remove that they
will be expelled by force and ship
ped away to Africa. Something
must be done.

THE news from the national
sick room at Buffalo continues to
be reassuring, and the doctors now
believe that the distinguished pa
tient is on the high road to COM
plete recovery. The expected de-
parturs of Vice President Roose-
welt and Senator Hanna this even
ing is evidence that the condition
of the President is satisfactory to
those who have had access to his
presence. AS Garfield said in New
York the morning following the
assassination of Lincoln, "God
reigns and the Government at
Washington still lives"
Arizona daily citizen., 1901-09-10

THE one clear, predominating
tone that echoes from the tragedy
at Buffalo, as given expression by
the press of tho United States, is
that the anarchists must be driven
from this land, or like lunatics, le-
pers and criminals, be segregated
from. the rest of the population
and domiciled behind walls. The
sworn enemies of all governments
are not in position to appeal to
the mercy or favor of government.
They should all be treated as Grim
inals without the grace of habeas
corpus. Anarchy must be des-
troyed.

ABOUT ANNExlNG CUBA.

1t is suggested that very posi-
bly, the paramount issue" of the
election in 1904 will be Cuban an
nexation-not forcible, but peace
full, and in accordance with the
wish of a majority Of the Cuban
people.
With the issue thus raised the
Democrats and liberal Republi-
cans are expected to favor annexa-
ton, supported by the sentiment
of the controlling forces in Cuba,
which will it is expected be salts
fed by that time, that freedom
under the suzeraintv of the Uni
ted States is a delusion and a
snare.
Such a decision would be in
line with Democratic precedent
as set by the famous Ostend mani
festo drawn up in 1854 by Bu-
chanan, Mason and Soule, three
of President Pierce's diplomatic
Representatives abroad, urging
that the United States acquire
Cuba, by purchase if possible, by
seizure otherwise. But there is
now a new complication:
The South, the chief bulwark of
the Democratic party, is great
producer of sugar, tobacco and
tropical fruits. Do its people
want this country flooded with
the free products of Cuba?
The negroes, the mulatoes, and
other mixed races constitute near
ly one half the population. Does
the South want another negro
State?
1t seems pretty safe to conclude
that the new Cuban question, If it
shall materialize, will hardly be
fought out on the old party lines
