Rivalry Of Two Great Cities

The rivalry between the.two greatest
cities on the continent, New York and
Chicago, seems to have broken out in
a new and in q somewhat unusual
fashion. Instead of exulting over their
respective virtues, it now appears to
be a contest between those great cities
to demonstrate the superiority of their
respective vices. At this time, when.
New York is widely advertising what
she regards as her unparalleled wicked
ness; Chicago hastens to assert that
the formers vice as compared with
hers is too mild to be really worth
talking about re-
The Inter Ocean quotes an observant
-Chicagoan who had lately visited New
York as-saying: g sman walking from
The Inter Ocean office to the Audito-
rum Annex [about four b1ocks1 WILDE
accosted by more beggars, solicited by
more abandoned women, and, If the
walk is taken after dark, will have to
dodge more footpads and hold UP men
than would cross his path in. New York
If he were to walk from Union square
to Central park [something over two
miles] every day for month. A walk
through the slums and red light dis
tricts Of New York is attended by
about as much excitement born Of
danger as would attend walk through
Lincoln park on summer afternoon"
It is up to New York to demonstrate
the falsity Of Chicago's claim to pre-
eminence. While the people of these
cities doubtless lament the existence
of such a condition Of affairs, one can
not help -suspecting that there is an
undertone Of gloomy pride in this con-
test for supremacy in vice.

1t is >intimated in Washington that
after the Morgan, Hill and Rockefeller
combination completes it's plans of
railroad consolidation the roads are
likely to be offered to the government
at price to be fixed. This will not
be done because it is thought that the
government will buy, says q pub
lie man who holds the closest relations
to the big railroad operators, but be-
cause it is expected that the prefer
will silence criticism of the combi-
nation. In other words, the ruling
spirits will, it is asserted, say to the
public: "You object to these enormous
combinations Of capital. Very WELL;
we have offered our properties to the
government and are willing the gov
eminent should take them and run
them. If the government does not
take them, it is not our fault. Certain
~ we have shown our spirit Of willing
ness to let the government have them,

ted to conduct the properties in
peace" If the government should
call the bluff and take over the roads,
there would evidently be a good deal
Of squirming on the part of these dis
tinguished railroad manipulators. Prob
ably the price demanded for the prop
critics would be beyond all reason, but
the government could get even with
the combine by acquiring the roads
under the right of eminent domain at
fair valuation fixed by disinterested
commissioners. The proposed coup Of
the railroad magnates to forestall- a
popular cutlery against combination
and a prospective demand for govern
ment ownership might take decidedly
different tu9n from what they antici-
pate.

Fl Paso, Jan. g. According to the official reports from Austin and San Francisco and the orders that have. been received in El Paso by the quarantine authori- ties the bubonic plague situation is becoming serious.
 Yesterday John R. Moberly, state quarantine officer here, re- ceived orders from Doctor Blunt at Austin, to enforce a strict quarantine against Bakersfield Cal, and to make more stringent rules regarding San Francisco.
 This order came following a report from the authorities at Bakersfield, stating that a case of the plague had developed in that city. It is known that Dr. Blunt and governor Savers are watching the situation, and if the state of California does not take immediate steps to prevent

Congress Should Provide for It.

During the last ten years the United States Government has expended nearly one-ha1f million dollars in making surveys, ascer- taining the amount of rainfall, and gathering other necessary Edata, from what is known as our arid section, with a view to the inauguration of a governmental plan of irregation.
 The report of these investiga- tion shows that there are about 75, ,0O0,0 acres of land now un- productive which can be rendered highly productive.
 The GLOBE is hot opposed to any legitimate expansion, either in the line of the acquisition to territory or of foreign commerce, but 1t is opposed to a policy which places foreign expansion before development.

the spread of the disease or in some way determine whe ther or not the real plague exists, Texas will take steps to force California to action.
 It is entirely pxobable that every train from California wheth- CT from San Francisco or any other part of the state, will be held up at Fl Paso and neither freight or passengers be allowed to enter the state. If the Cali fornia authorities do not immedi- 'Rtely cooperate with Texas and the other states in preventing the disease.
 Denver Colo, Jan. 29.-Secre- tary G. E. Tyler of the state board of health, regards the sitn- ation in California as very serious, and says rigid steps will be talk en by the state officials to oprevent any possible introduction of the disease into Colorodo. The de- tailed plans for the exclusion of any possibly infected persons, he says, are still in a tentative state. but the matter was thoroly dis cussed at the board meeting Thursday, and Is being closely wotched.
 The fact that the bubonic pla- que, which is the most virulent of diseases and which was never known in the United States since 1t was first discovered in San Francisco in March, still finds victims notwithstanding the radical steps taken by the health authorities, the doctor thinks that no treatment is too radical for it's eradication. So far there has never been a case of the plague in this state, but owing to peculiarites of the diagnosis of the disease 1t is sometimes diff ficu1t to locate. The mortality rate among affected persons al- ways ranges about 80 or 90 per cent, but at Barkersield, where forty deaths were reported the rate was 100 per cent.
 Secretary Tyler is in close telegraphic touch with the Cali fornia authorities.

Gainblingand
 its Consequences.

New York, Jan. 26.-Dr. Felix Alder, while giving a lecture on "The Gambling Passion and it's consequences, 5" made a distinction between gaming and gambling. The former might be recreation but when the elements of gain is added 1t becomes gambling. Ths savage and the child are natural gamblers. The streets of this city swarm with gambling chill dren. Craps is a prevalent spe- cies of gambling among them The life which is orderly and reg u1ar is apt to be free from it.
 It is sometimes said that all business is speculative, and to a considerable extent this IS true. But the difference between the man that gambles and the one that speculates is that the gam bier wants to live we'll without any effort, while the man who. speculates and tries to obtain his money by fair means has to toll and use foresight to gain his live lyhood.
 What we need to do in this day is to lend our influence to the uH- speculative side of life. Give me what is squandered at the card tables in this city and will change the face of New York"

Of the ten contested election cases submitted to the present Congress only four have decided. Possibly one or two more may be heard before March 4, but the chances are against it. There is a growing impression in Congress that a new method of settling e. lection cases should be adopted. Some of the members favor the plan in operation in England, by which three Judges hear and de- cided the contested election cases before the time arrives for the member to take his seat.

1 There are nearly 5000 Indians in Arizona, most of whom are sad, sorrowful, and in a starving condition! River dry, drought of last year killed their cattle and horses, and nothing but mos quite beans for the support of the l Indians, or rations from Govern ment.
 Rev. R. M. Craig, Superintend- ent of Missions, Synod of New Mexico, in the Evangelist of December P, 1900, says that he has just visited 586 families; of the 5S6 families 482 have not been able to raise anything in the past year for the lack of water. This is exclusive of the Maricopas and the Papagoes in the Pima country, who are worse off, as they have been partly dependent on the Pimas for years. The Pimas be- tween 1853 and 1872, 19 years, saved the Government over a million dollars; and in the Apache war. from 1872 to 1887, half a million more. Now the water IS taken from them by the farmers on the upper Gila, and starvation stares them in the face.
 Congress should vote an appro- priation to erect the San Carlos dam, accorindg to MT. J. B Lip pincott'sreport, February l, 1900, No. B; then those Indians-Pimas, Maricopas and Papagoes-will again earn an honest living as in past years. Shall this be de- nied? Shall the 18th Century of dishonor" be repeated in the 20th?
 Missionary Cook has a church of 1000. members-part of the great Presbyterian body. Shall this branch of the church stand idle and mute? Shalb the Cath ollie body that claims the Papa goes look on and do nothing? IT cANNoT-MUsT NOT BEL In the name of the great head of the Church, these and all other branches will arouse and say that it must be built, those children of the desert saved, and the blot on our Nations escutcheon wiped out.
 The undersigned was co-Pres- byter of Rev. Cook over 10 years at Florence, Arizona, in now a resident of Pasadena, Californa, and is bending all his enegies at Washington to secure necessary appropriations for the erection of the San Carlos dam, Will not all public journals, secular and religeous, join in educating public opinion to secure so worthy an object, and thus bring joy to the hearts of MT. Cook and his pros trate Indians?

WASTE OF WATER.

Several of the Western papers have sounded the note of warn- ing in the matter of the waste of artesion water supplies from vast underground reservoirs, the res- ervoir supplying many wells. During the past two years thous- ands of new wells have been bored, tapping these underground reservoirs, and complaint is now made that wells are allowed to flow on even at times when no use is made of the water.

Parker had assaulted him, and gave good description of the boy. Mir. McClusky said that the col. ored boy had been Ill the habit oi coming to the house and talking with him, that this was ire quent occurrence, Friday evening he had spent two hours in his company, that sometime between the hours of six and seven o'clock the young negro arose to depart, he went outside the door, but inn mediate1y, he saw him coming back put thought nothing of 1t, Tn moment someone dealt him a terrific blow on the temple. That is the last he remembered for many hours. Dr. Hughes exam ined the wounds on MeClusky's head and pronounced them made with a hammer, and that tool was found later near where he fell. There are three wounds, each one representing a blow from the deadly hammer. The doctor dressed the wounds and the in- jured man is resting easy, Mar sha1 Hooker located the negro by the description given and arrested him 1n short order. The assail- ant was taken before MT. Mc1usky who immediately identified him as Jim Parker" The negro was then before Justice of the Peace Burnett, who remanded him to jail and ordered that he be brought before him for hearing Monday morning at 10 o'clock. James McClusky is an inoffensive old man between 55 and 60 years Of age, who makes his living cleaning clothes for the merchant tailors of the city. The assault was a most brutal one, as it was made for the purpose of robbery, the negro secured nine dollars as the result of his murderous as- sault. Enterprise.
