'.The abduction of Miss Stone" says Professor Manatt. formerly United States consult at Ath- EASTERN ems. brings home to BRIGANDAGE. us as never before the
 peculiar institution of southeastern Europe; and, if we are not to recall our missionaries or stand ready to ransom them at $100.000 a head, we must look out for a remedy that goes to the root of the matter. Brigandage in the east is an inter mittent fever-readily driven in. but never yet stamped out. It demands drastic treatment proceeding on q true diagnosis" Professor Manatt con- tends that brigandge is the offspring of war. coupled with misrule, and In the shadow of the crescent there can be no hope of extirpating. "the monstrous procreation." because. to quote Free man. ''the rule of the Turk has never become a government; it has never discharged the duties of government; it was foreign brigandage five hum dred years back. and 1t remains foreign brigandage still" The writer tells the recent history of Greece and Turkey in so far as 1t touches upon. the cause of brigandage. and details the so- called Marathon Massacre in which the captives of the brigands were killed when troops surrounded them and release was imminent-a fate which may overtake Miss Stone as well. This affair. however. was not the crime of
 
 two exceptions, were Wallachs and Turkish subjects, and the remnant that recrossed the border remained unrno- lested' under Turkish protection. Nor can the Greek government be charged in this instance, with contributory neg ligence. It my have blundered. but every step taken was either suggested whose countrymen were in peril. But the best government on earth can not extirpate brigandage in Greece as long as the Turk goes on breeding brigands and harboring them upon her borders. Whoever Miss Stones captors may be, whatever their motive. 1t Is safe to say they got their schooling under the Turk. It was the murder of the con- suls at Salonika that preluded the Bul garian massacres in 1876 and the de thronement of Abdul Aziz, and it Is not impossible that the abduction of our Salonika missionary may prove an- other factor in hastening the retreat of the Turk from Europe. If so. it will have contributed to the cure of brig andage by removing the cause.''

and those on the ground may be able to guess better.
 In Kentucky a legislature is to be elected, which will name United States senator to succeed Deboe. re- publican. A democratic victory seems certain.
 The Nebraska contest. which Is for minor state officers, is of interest only because of curiosity to ascertain the extent to which Mir Bryan has been able to hold the fusion forces together
 The municipal campaign in San Francisco has been one of the hottest on record. The curious spectacle is presented of the Chronicle and Call, the leading republican dailies. bitterly fighting Wells. the republican nominee. and supporting Tobin. the democratic candidate, while the Examiner, the foremost democratic paper. bolts To- bin and supports Schmitz. the socia- list-labor candidate. The election of Tobin seemed assured up to yesterday. but as OUT dispatches of this morn ing show. an alarm has gone out that the socialist candidate may win. and there may be a concentration on Wells. We guess that 1t will be Tobin. however

 .---er stock at 10 cents q share" says the New York Commercial He sold it to the workingmen who dreamed of 100 per cent profits. The stock is worthless. The mine has not shipped a pound of copper and cannot, because there is no railroad within miles of it. Is this kind of robbery any different from the highwayman's methods? It may be gentler way of relieving the poor man of his money. but ought the punishment of the swindler to be any less severe than the punishment of the thug with a slung-shot? Massachu- setts has laws. Stir up the district at torneys!" And yet, when the governor of Arizona warned eastern investors against just this sort of mining" the democratic press of the territory with one voice set up d howl of agony and
 yelped that the mining industry of the territory had been ruined. The warn- ing had a salutary effect and since

Cautiously enough, the impression still prevails in many portions of the east
 that Arizona is only an OUR insignificant patch of GREAT desert in the south COUNTIES. western corner of the
 union. And our own people are so familiar with our magni- ficent distances, that they do not req lize that in reality Arizona is large enough and rich enough in natural re- sources to make several states. It is interesting, therefore, to note the great area of the several counties.
 Apache county extends IS miles east and west and 24O miles north and south.
 The greatest length of Coconino county is 1855 miles and its greatest width I40 miles. It is larger than the combined states of Vermont, Massa- chusetts and Delaware. having an area of 19,322 square miles.
 Gila, one of the smaller counties, has an area of 4.542 square miles.
 Cochise county is s3 miles north and south by s4 miles east and west, and has an area of 6.147 square miles. being slightly larger than the combined areas of Rhode Island and Connecticut.
 Graham county contains $500 square miles.
 Maricopa county has s.Sl6 square miles. and is slightly larger than Mas sachusetts.
 Mohave county has an area of 13. 421 square miles.
 Navajo county is 240 miles long. 53 miles wide. and comprises 9.S26 square miles, nearly equal to the area of Maryland.
 Pima county contains an area of 9.424 square miles.
 Pinal county has 5.324 square miles. Santa Cruz. the smallest county con- tains 1.212 square miles. about equal to the area of Rhode Island.

then-say within the past two years
 there has been more capital invested in legitimate mining in Arizona than during the previous ten years. But from the above clipping from the Com mercial 1t is evident that the more creduious people of the east are in need of still further protection. These vic- ious attacks upon the governor were just the material which swindlers needed with which to justify them selves. and whenever crowded into a corner they have quoted the demo- cratic papers of Arizona in defense of their bunco games.
Arizona republican., 1901-11-05

It has been SO thoroughly demon
 that the public infiiction of capital pun ishment is debasing to the spectators instead of exercising a deterrent in- fluence as to make any further proof of this unnecessary. Nevertheless, the English authorities at Cairo lately tried that what is true in England and in France might not be true in Egypt. 4 shocking murder had lately been committed in the Egyptian cap- ital, and it was thought that the public execution of the murderer in a. square near the scene of his crime might serve to terrify other criminals. A gallows was erected on the evening before the execution and at once attracted a crowd of people, who remained there all night. giving the place the appear ance of q popular fair. It was a merry crowd, amid which peddlers sold their wares. and every sort of horseplay was indulged in. When the criminal was hanged the spectacle was viewed sim ply as public entertainment and in spirit of unmistakable levity. One curious result was that number of the native children who were present were so pleased with the ghastly entertain ment that they spread the report of it, among all their playmates. where upon games of hanging Immediately came into fashion and were stopped only after two children had lost their lives

Arizona has petitioned for statehood many times during the thirty-eight years of her territorial REASONS organization" says the ABUNDANT. New York World. But in pleading before the coming session of congress that she may become No. 46 in the sisterhood of states she means to make her most determined effort. A committee head ed by the copper magnate William C.. Greene has been appointed to carry on the campaign at Washington, and the neighboring territory of New Mexico will join. perhaps not all unselfishly. in the struggle.
 Arizona, judged by the precedents of past admissions, has the requisite population for a state and has gained 1t rapidly. The census of 1870 ac- counted for 9.65s people; that of 1880 gave 40.440; in 1890 the figures were 59.620: in 1900 the total was 122 931. a larger population than that of Wy oming and almost three times that of Nevada. By the time of the next cen sus Delaware may be left behind by her far western sister.
 "Aside from the practical considera- tions of population and unquestioned wealth. Arizona may urge a sentlmen- tai reason for the favor she seeks. The same year, 1903. which will mark the centennial of the Louisiana Purchase will bring the semi-centennial of the Gadsden Purchase. through which was settled the southern boundary line of both Arizona and the republic. It would be at least poetic justice if statehood were to give a golden jubi- lee turn to the end Of the fifty years. From this point even the strongly re- publican congress may look with lem ient eyes upon the rather persistent democracy of this aspiring territory"
