AT last the government has de
cided to take a hand in fighting
consumption in the United States
by excluding all foreign consump-
tives who are in an advanced stage
| from our shores. On the heels of
this announcement comes the in
telligence that John d. Rockefeller
has set aside 100000 as the COM
mencement of Il fund to be used by
scientists in searching for means
to distroy tuberculosis bacilli. 1t
is high time the government took
this matter in hand to prevent the
spread of this dreaded disease and
the proposition of Mr.. Rockefeller
is truly humane and magnamous
act. To within the last few wears
the spread of consumption has not
attracted very much public atten-
ton and all the time it has been
gaining "A foothold gradually, sure
ly. In Arizona consumptives are
invited and welcomed no matter
in what advanced stage they may
be, merely because they will spend
their money. If cattle are shipped
into the Territory afflicted with
tuberculosis they are Immediately
quarintined and the .disease ed
animals destroyed, while at the
same time, in many places, con-
sumptives of the most dangerous
kind are employed as school teach
ers where the children are compel
led to be in close association with
them in the school room, breath
ing the air made dangerous by the
breath Of the diseased teacher. We
feel sorry for any one afflicted with
consumption, but at the same time
these are the conditions confront
ing us and our children should be
protected if the disease is ever to
be stamped out.

THE men who are clamoring fol
the reorganization Of the Demo
cratic party are men who support
ed Mckinley in 1896 and 1900, and
who desire to make the Democratic
party adopt Republican principles
and policies, and trail along behind
that party. The Democratic par
ty, under the lead of such men,
would be no better than the Re-
publican party under the lead of

Bob Warren Shot.

Benson, Ariz., June 20.-Matt
Burtts shot cow boy named Bot
Warren yesterday at a COW camp
near Wilcox, breaking his arm be-
tween the elbow and shoulder.
Warren and Burtts had been
working together on roundup in
the Sulphur Spring valley during
the past week. On Wednesday
they had quarrel in camp and a
fist fight ensued in which Burtts
got the worst of it. Burtts i'm
mediately left on horseback and
rode to Johnson, near by mining
camp,where he procured gun, and
returning to the COW camp opened
fire on Warren. Warren was sit
ting in camp when the first shot
was fired. He jumped to his feet
and at the second shot fell to the
ground shot through the arm.
After the shooting Matt Burtts
got on his horse and rode away,
and up to this time he has not been
apprehended. A posse from Will
COX started in pursuit as soon as
the news reached town, but have
not yet returned.
Warren, the wounded COW boy,
is a son-in-law of Thomas
Allaire, ex.member Of the board of
supervisors. He was taken to
Tombstone to day by the county
physician, DR.. Baker, who was
summoned to Wilcox after the
shooting.
Burtts was recently pardoned
out of the penitentiary upon the
recommendation of Wells Fargo
detectives and the district attorney
of Cochise county. Burtts was
serving sentence for completely
in the Cochise holdup about year
ago.

the creation of new counties when
ever any considerable number ofI
the people of the section asked to
be cut off desired the right to gov
ern themselves. We believe the
same principle should obtain in
measure in the matter of the divi-
sion ofa Territory, especially when
the area is so great, the climate
and other physical conditions so
different and the industries in har-
mony with the physical conditions
are so varied as are those Of Ari-
zona. This Territory is large en-
ough to be devided into four geo.
graphical divisions, if the people
so desire such divisions. The Star
believes in the claim of Northern
Arizona, and we have no hesitation
in saying that from a political
standpoint Northern Arizona has
not received fair treatment. The
contention Of the Courier is not a
myth by any means, it is based on
good and substantial grounds. The
agitation is now on, it will con-
tinue until justice is done our
northern citizens. The Star joins
the Courier in its just demands for
Northern Arizona. Star.
We presume the Star refers in
particular to Yavapai county when
it says "from political standpoint
Northern Arizona has not received
fair treatment" Every time there
is close political fight Yavapia
can always be counted on TO go
Republican. She has done so re-
peatedly and from a political stand
point Democratic should be cut
up into at least three counties. In
the last camaign, because she did
not happen to get her favorite
nominated she went over to the
enemy in overwhelming numbers.
Notwithstanding this fact the
Democrats in the last Legislature
stood by her and prevented her
division. She has nothing to ask
of the Democratic party and if the
Republican party is treating her
badly it is her own fault.
In the Stars editorial it simply
shows its soreness over the elec-
tion of its old-time enemy, Mark
Smith.

The Copper Era nominates Hon.
G. nj. Shannon as the next Demo
cratic Governor of Arizona, which
nomination is seconded by the
Tucson Citizen. There is probably
no man in the Territory who would
be more acceptable to the whole
people than Mr.. Shannon and if we
should happen to get statehood be-
fore we need another governor,
Mr.. Shannon could easily be elect.
ed over any one the Republicans
could nominate. If the next Demo-
cratic governor should be appoint

hearty endorsement both north and

The Florence Blade believes that
the construction of the Rock Island
railroad through New Mexico to
the Arizona line, soon to begin,
means that the road will be pushed
on through Arizona, down the Gila,
through Florence and on to San
Diego. This will rouse the Atchi-
son, Topeka & Santa Fe to the ne,
cessity Of doing something to head
off its rival, the Blade thinks. At
any rate it is evident that the pres
ent year will witness the construc-
ton of several new lines of railroad
