Gen. Gardper is not a young lover by

losses experienced by Chinese converts
is a surprise. so far as General Wilson
could see, III Hung Chang's conduct
was open, frank and statesmanlike
throughout the trying circumstances
by which he was surrounded. He show
cd no disposition to make delay or to
deal unfairly with any question.
Neither chicamcry nor insincerity could
be anywhere detected in words or con-
duct On the contrary, he seemed 10
be profoundly impressed with the
gravity OF the situation and with the
great responsibility resting upon him."
With regard to the important ques-
tion touching the limits of Chinas
liability to provide the interest and sink
ing fund incidental TO a new foreign
loan. General Wilson ON page 1873 OK
presses the opinion that with the in
|crease OF importations which is steadily
going on and an increase of duty to,
say, 10 per cent. ad valorem in gold,
TO enable the Chinese government to
indemnify the foreigners for their
losses in the Boxer war, the annual
receipts from customs would be in
creased TO Sl20O00,000 in gold at an
early date" simultaneously with this
increase in customs duties our author
thinks that the likin, or inland transit
dues, should be abolished, because they
greatly retard internal trade, and have
always provoked earnest objections on
the part of native as well as foreign
merchants.
We have here been able TO furnish
only very few indications of the value
Of this work. Not only the seven addi-
tional chapters but the whole book,
which has been revised. should be
read carefully by every one who de-
sires thoroughly to comprehend the
actual and prospective state of things
in China. At the hour when this vol
ume went to press General Wilson
deemed 1t impossible TO state with con-
= tdence what will be the ultimate out
come OF the existing complications. OF
when the foreign Powers will deem 1t
safe to withdraw their troops from
China and leave that country to work
out its own destiny under the treaties
, which VIII be eXacted from them. II
is pronounced obvious, however, that
China Is no longer free nation. and.
because OF her disorganization and lack
OF effective military power, must
. necessarily yield whatever foreign ma
tions concur in demanding"

scarcity of steamers, they were unable

lively remarks.

a GOOD ORDER.

Two weeks ago the GUARDIAN
directed the attention of the board
of supervisors to the fact that a
large number of people had allow
ed their taxes to become delinquent
and made no effort to pay, in fact
some of them seem to enjoy the dis
tinction of being able to avoid the
payment of their taxes, yet enjoy
the same privileges and protection
as those who do pay. The total
delinquent amounts to between Sl5,.
600 and $4,000.
One of the last orders entered by
board at its recent meeting was di-
recting the District Attorney to
bring suit against all these delin.
quents. The order is as follows:
"On motion and by full vote OF
the board the District Attorney is
hereby ordered and directed to
bring suit in the next term of the
district court against each person
in Graham County whose property
has become delinquent for taxes,
for the amounts shown to be due
by the tax collectors books"

1t is great fun to run anewpaper.
Every week from one to a dozen
chaps come and kick about not get
ting their paper and as a rule their
kick is well founed. 1t may not be
the fault of the editor, but he can't
explain it without throwing the
blame on his nearest friends best
girl, or Icing straight up, which
no editor was ever known to do.
Then along comes fellow and
wants a SO mention of the birth
of a 35 cent baby, and if the paper
come out on Thursday, he will be
up there Wednesday afternoon
waiting to get that paper. He just
knows they will all be gobbled up
and held beyond price because
they mention the advent of that
diminutive bundle of slobber and
sneeze and half digested milk.
When the press begins to clllck it
is all the devil can do to keep the
fond parent from taking header
into the works and when the sheet
appears the pressman can't get q
chance to see whether Chamber
lain's kolic kure is still there or
Lydia Il Pinkham looks natural
or Royal Baking Powders are still
rising till that fellow grabs it and
out he goes waving it over his head
and smearing the fresh ink indis-
criminately over the sanity fea-
lures of Mrs. Graham, of cucumber
fame, or DR.. Toothacher, or bald
headed doctor who makes hair re-
storer, and he rushes off to some
secluded place, sits down on a
friendly cottonwood root, wipes
his ancient spectacles deliberately,
and looks for that baby notice. A
terrible blunder has been made.
1t is not the editors fault, he put
it on the hook. The foreman, the
devil and the hired girl all explain
how ii was not their fault, but the
baby item is not there. Your COM
petitor who steers the "Soap Alley
Bungstarter" across the street has
put in a half column shine on the
''latest arrival at the Jones man
sion" and it's all off with you. All
the Jones in that meridian, and all
the Smiths who are related to
them, all the Browns who have
dogs related to the Jones dogs will
put in the rest Of their natural lives
roofing for the "Bungstarter" and
cussin' your paper which after that
event, had just as well be called
the "South End Overalls." Times.

Stafford is one among the best
towns in Arizona, yet we have
people here who must be educated
to the fact that they must look out
for their towns interest. A per-
son who falls over dollars grabbing
nickles is not a good business man
and will finally be replaced by

SHOULD CRITIcIsE CAREFULLY

-
While the acts of the legislature
are subject for just criticism, yet
newspapers, in doing so, should
be certain of their ground before
making accusations. The Cochise
ReuieU, in criticising the passage
of relief bills says that the way
they got through was by being in
troduced during the last hours as
amendments to the appropriation
bill.
The appropriation bill was in
troduced in the House on March
10Th and became a law the last
thing on the 2lst day of March.
The bill for the relief of
Chas. Goldman, Wolf Sachs, Thos.
Morrow, ]. W. Wolf, Niels Peter.
son and P. j. Meyers was intro
duced in the House on Feb. goth,
and passed the Council March 9th
The bill for the relief of Althee
Mo eSti was introduced in the
House Feb. 9Th and passed the
Council the next day. The bill
for the relief of John Duke was in
troduced in the house on Feb. 9th
and passed the Council March 2nd
The bill for the relief Of Charles
d. Poston was introduced in the
House on Feb. goth and passed the
Council on Feb. 21st. The bill
for the relief of Frank Meadol
was introduced in the House on
Feb. 9th and passed the Council
Feb. 2Sth. The bill for the relief
of john Behan was introduced in
the House on Feb. 26th and pass.
ed the Council Feb 9th. The
bill for the relief of Thos. Parish
was introduced in the House on
March 8th and passed the Council
on March 9th. The bill for the
relief Of H. +. Robinson was in.
troduced in the House on March
7th and passed the Council March
l4th. The bill for the relief OF
Ben Heney was introduced in the
House on March 18th aud passed
the Council March 2lst.
The above record clearly shows
that these bills were not rushed
through as charged. They were
passed because the members vot.
ing for them were convinced that
the money was due the claimants
and ought to be paid, and perhaps
if those criticising these measures
would give the matter a little
thought they would find that most
Of their criticisms are as unbound.

AT the last meeting of the super
visors Manuel Leon made a prop.
osition to compromise his back sal
airy claim for $4,000 which was re.
fused and Leon entered suit. The
board Immediately employed
Wiley E. Jones to defent the coun.
ty against the claim. The board,
in refusing to allow this claim did
right. We never believed any OF
these back salaries should be paid
but the board, in its wisdom, saw
fit to compromise on one-half and
those who agreed to this got their
money. Mr.. Leon did not see fit
to accept this proposition and will
now have an opportunity of airing
his claim in court.
