WOMAN's RIGHT TO VOTE
Communication From Miss Blehm of
 the W. T.U.

The following communication has
 been received at this office from Miss Maria C. Brehm, superintendent of the
 national department of franchise of the w. C. T. Y. Miss Brehm arrived in
 Phoenix about two weeks ago: She says:
 Much depends upon the attitude in
 which we approach the consideration
 of such a question as this. If it is ad-
 mitted that all political power is vested in the people in this country
 the whole gOvc rnment is in favor of the woman.
 When our fathers came out of the struggle for independence from the mother country they had learned that governments derived their just powers from the consent of the governed. Women are governed and should give their consent. The bill of rights in
 nearly all states said the same thing. They say that all political power in- heres in the people, If women are peo-
 pie it follows that political power in-
 heres in them. These truths of the declaration of independence and the bill of rights grant woman's claim to the right of suffrage in advance, and 1t ought not to be necessary to argue this question at all, because from the day our fathers made it the words of the declaration of independence have been held up as self-evident truths. Admit
 the justice of this and there is no req son for saying that women are not en- titled 10 these rights. Our fathers did not say that governments derived their just right powers from the male sex; they did not say from the consent of
 the black or white; from the educated or uneducated; from the men who
 fought: but they made the broad dec- laration that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the
 governed, or by the consent of the people-or the suffrage--the right to
 vote. This suffrage is the expressed assent of the public. through the ballot, which registers opinion.
 "The essence of suffrage is rational choice. Then it follows that every per son capable of rational choice is right fully entitled to vote. The alien is | excepted because he still holds allegi- | ance to his native country. But when the alien has taken an oath to our gov ernment. he receives all the rights of citizenship. The minor is excepted, but when he reaches the years of dis cretion. he is entitled not only to buy and sell but to take part in the res possibility of government, and vote also. The idiot and lunauc are eN- captions because they are incapable of rational choice. The criminal is also
 excepted, because he has proven him. self unworthy of the trust by making the public safety insecure while he is
 at large
 "None of these cases violate the prin- ciple or sentiment of the declaration of independence But when woman is disfranchised simply because she is a
 woman that principle is violated, be-
 cause 1t implies that woman does not

JUPITER REIGNs IN ARIZONA
pluvius Holds Entire Territory in
 Tightening Grasp.

Umbrellas, rubber goods and, in northern Arizona, snow shovels, have made spectacular scenes for old resi- dents during two weeks reign ol rain. snow and sleet, and have pres cnted a surprise to many visitors who came here with a preconc5 ption of sun shine and flowers in this semi-tropical belt. Visitors petition for relief from wet weather which they sought to e'ude by leaving their easteyn homes, but he resident of Arizona the old timer who has witnessed the apalling effect of pratracted dry seasons, wears a smi,e of satisfaction. He is willing to suft r an attack of Ia grippe. to lay aside his dry weather rainment, and the clothing merChant is willing to con vert his establishment into rubber goods house, with the promise of a lively season to come.
 It has been many years since rain and snow have fallen so steadily and in as great volumes Is in the past two weeks. A gentle but steady rain set tied over all of central and southern Arizona y, sterday, forming a sequel, but probably not finish, to the drawn out IItt r kd Nibll, NALA-il s'NNbA'AiAS " the signs of the skies had ended two or three days ago. Heavy showing set tied over northern Arizona, the fall be- ing greater than at any time during the recent period of precipitation, and the storm seer.el to increase constant ly in its fury.
 Altogether the conditions are out wardly similar to those pr ceding the great flood which a.EOSt inundated Phoenix in 1891, but the flood in i'celf prccluded the possibility of a recur- cence for many years, by carrying be- fore # large tr es which grew in the river bottoms. By Obs,ructing masses of debris they prevented the free passage of the flood waters which dissipat.d themselves over the river banks. Ten years ago heavy snow in rna mountains, which form water sheds for the Upper Salt and Verde rivers, preceded a warm rain, so that when tho melting process was at its height water literally poured down the noun tain canyons in torrents. An unusual feature Was the fact that the Upper Salt and Verde rivers were inordin- at ly swollen at the same time when one of the peculiarities of the Salt river is that its flood waters seldom come from both tributaries simultan- eously.

HOGS IN DEMAND
Swine Industry in Salt River Valley
 Promises Well.

Not many years ago the majority or the people in Arizona thought that there never could be profit in swine culture in this territory. Indeed a few ranchers wko tried hog raising aban- doned the attempt and gave over their time to cattle and alfalfa. For a, long time the few jhogs that existed in this valley ran almost wild, not con- sidered worth their feed. Finally a change came. Some wise rancher brought out few fine blooded pigs and went at the industry in the proper manner. He fed his hogs on alfalfa until fat enough for market then he hardened them on barley, and produced the finest pork that had ever been seen in the city. Other ranchers slowly took up the industry and today there are hundreds of ranches in this val ley, where the swine herd is bringing the best returns of anything on the ranch. and at the same time is swelling at such rate that it promises to drive out many of the other functions of tho farm. Within the past year there has been a steady growth in the favor in which the hog business is held and many ranchers, who at one time could see no money in pigs, now prophecy that the hog Is to soon be big factor in the business of this valley. There has been a heavy demand for the past three months for hogs and by the purchase of SOW or two and good boar, many a rancher has started 2 business which will STOW with startling rapidity.
 It Is true that the meat of the alfalfa fed hog Is not of the proper flavor, but it is also true that a few weeks grain-hardening makes him into as fine pork as one could find anywhere in the world.

Public Libraries Dedicated.

The Rocky Mountain News says that
the dedication and opening OF public
libraries at Ouray and Grand junction

cities owe these valuable additions to the
cause OF intelligence and culture to tn >
liberal beneficsnce OF two capitalists, Mr..
Thomas r. Walsh having made the do
nation of the one at Oursy, and Andrew
Carnegie Of the one at Grand Junction.
There is no more certain means Of pro
noting a love OF books and habit OF
reading among the people than a good
public library. Such an instit"tion in
any town or city is an admirable sup
plement to the public school, with which
the education of the great mass of the
people ends 1t is the foe OF all classes
OF evil resorts and protects the morals as
we'll as elevates the character and broad
ems the minds OF it's patrons. 1t be-
comes center OF culture from which
radiate only those influences which lift
humanity upward, aud assures a better
and nob!er citizenship.
Ouray and Grand Junction are to be
on the acquisition Of such
library buildings. 1t should be their
constant purpose to keep them we'll sup
piled with the best literature, to add
yearly to their lists OF new books and to
them always at tho highest de-

W. s. Phillips, Jr., manager OF the
Book Cliff railroad and mines, is looking
into the feasibility OF launching on the
waters OF the Grand river, below the city
proper, naptha launch. He has been
talking to some OF his friends about the
project and has then. greatly enthused
about the matter. He proposes that a
club house be built right west OF the
city limits, extending out over the waters
OF the river and to be used at the same
time as boat house. He has made
sounding along the river and he thinks
that boat could ply very readily oD the
river between here and Fruita This
would give . splendid stretch OF water

in the way OF pleasure and sport that
something like the above should not be

Phillips will undertake to organize such
club and secure launch OF considerable

where much pleasure could be secured.
