WHO LIED9

Some one was saying not long
ago that there was no war in the
Philippines. Was it Mr.. McKin-
ley, or General Otis, or Secretary
Root? At any rate the Taft COM
mission before election cabled over
that if Bryan was clicked" "the
remnant of insurrection will disap-
pear within sixty days, by sur
render of leaders and fading out of
rank and file" The sixty days
are nearly up, yet General Mac
Arthur issued in the Philippine
Islands a proclamation that had no
more color Of peace in il than the
fresh Boer invasion of Cape Colony
foreshadows the speedy end of the
South African war. General Mac
Arthur, please observe, now warns
the Filipinos that thereafter strict
compliance with the laws of war
will be required Of non-combatants
as well as combatants." Laws of
war! Then there is war in the
Philippines by admission Of Gener-
al Macarthur. If there is not,
what right has he to make nom
combatants conform to wars rules?
And this comes almost at the end
Of the sixty days period which
was to mark the utter disappear
ance of the insurrection. Never
was the mendacity and hypocrisy
Of a government more quickly con-
fessed than in this instance. Gen
eral Mac Arthur's proclamation, as
whole, indicates that our Philip
pine conquest is about to enter up
on period OF harshness and bru-
tality which will rival the Brit
ish atrocities in South Africa. The
election is being accepted at Wash
ington as a mandate to conquer the
Filipinos at any cost. The remark
of an Englishman becomes timely;
ALREADY England in the Trans
vaal, and America in the Philip
pines, have caught up with at least
two thirds of the atrocities Of the
Spanish policy of coercion, and
why should they not complete the
comse?"- Springfield (Mass.) Re,
pUjlicaR.

FRIDAY, February 8th is Arbor
Day, made so by the Arizona legis-
lature for the purpose of encour-
aging tree and shrub culture. 1t
is intended that the day shall be
properly observed by all the
schools, in planting trees, shrubs
and flowers and with appropriate
exercises. The day should be
strictly observed in Graham coun-
ty for it not only helps to beautify
the school grounds, but also teaches
the children the value of trees,
flowers, etc. Each child should be
encouraged to plant at least one
good tree at home on that day and
then to care for it as it developes

THE RETURNING HERO.

A fog is reported as interfering
somewhat with the brilliancy of
Lord Roberts reception at South
ampton. 1t is noted also that the
popular enthusiasm in London was
not so great as on the return of the
volunteers, though large mill
tary guard was present to retain
the exuberant manifestation that
disgraced London on the occasion,
says the Philadelphia Times.
A worse fog than that so familiar
in England hangs over the scene
of Lord Roberts victorious career
in South Africa, from which he is
returning to receive the popular
acclaim. 1t is fog so dense as
quite to obscure the reasons for
rejoicing. Such information as
reaches London is OF the most DIS
quieting kind. 1t gives the i'm
preston that Roberts victory over
the Beers was a fruitless one and
that the British conquest of South
Africa is yet to be achieved.
This is not Roberts fault. He
did what he was sent to do eX-
peditiously and well. 1t was the
undertaking itself that was at fault
A general can defeat an army in
battle, but to subiugate brave
people who are determined to be
free is beyond his power or the
power OF such narrow statesman
ship as prevails just now at Lon
don and Washington.

THE legislature only has the
power to regulate freight rates from
one point in the territhry to anoth-
or. A freight bill was introduced
last session, but the representatives
from Graham county, especially
those from the Gila valley, were
not in favor it it as it placed them
in competition with Salt River val
ley and would tend to reduce the
price of their products. Graham
county farmers have the best mar
kets in the territory for their pro
duce and the Stafford Commercial
Club should make haste slowly
when they tackle the freight
rates. ."-Cochise ReUieC
The advice of the Rerie,o on this
subject is appreciated by all inter
ested in the welfare Of the valley.
1t is not the intention Of the SAT-
ford Commercial Club to draw a
bill which will cripple any indus
try Of this county. The matter
will be carefully gone over before
the bill is drawn, and when it is
introduced it will be in such a
shape as not to injure our markets.

President Roosevelt is quite a poli- tician and is trying to build up q strong party around him. In the con tentions of the various factions which have, from time to time, besieged the White House, MT Roosevelt has al- ways managed to come out ahead, even where he was obliged to refuse appointment to all the candidates urged and select Q clark horse. 7 Whenever he has been obliged to do this he has managed to select man so we'll fitted for the office that he was sure to gain the approval and support of the citizens of the district in which the appointment was made, and he has almost convinced conflicting political factions that their only safe course is to agree on candidate before they take their claims to the White House, as to appear there with contention means the almost inevitable loss of the appointment to both factions.

A GLIMPSE INTO THE FUTURE.


 The men of the new republic will not be squeamish either in facing or infiicting death, because they will have q fuller sense of the possibilities of life than we possess. They will have an ideal that will make killing worth the while, like Abraham they will have the faith to kill, and they will have no superstitions about death. They will naturally regard the modest sui eide of incurable melancholy or dis eased or helpless persons as a high and courageous act of duty rather than a crime. And since they will regard, as indeed all men raised above the brutish level do regard, a very long term of imprisonment as infinite ly worse than death, as being indeed death with a living misery added to it's natural terror, they will, l conceive, where the whole tenor of a mans ac- tions, and not simply some incidental or impulsive action, seems to prove him unfitted for free life in the world, consider him carefully and condemn him and remove him from being. All such killing will be done with an opiate. for death is too grave thing to be made painful or dreadful and used as q deterrent from crime. If deterrent punishments are used at all in the code of the future the deterrent will neither be death nor mutilation of the body, nor mutilation of the life
 by imprisonment, nor any horrible things like that, but good scientific ally caused pain that will leave noth- ing but a memory. Yet even the memory of overwhelming pain is sort of mutilation of the soul. The idea that only those who are fit to live freely in an orderly world state should be permitted to live is entirely against the use of deterrent punish ments at all. Against outrageous conduct to children or women, per- haps, or for very cowardly or brutal assaults of any sort, the men of the future may consider pain salutary remedy at least during the ages of transition while the brute is still at large. But since most acts of this sort do, under conditions that neither torture nor exasperate, point to an es- sential vileness ill the perpetrator, I am inclined to think that even in these cases the men of the coming time will be far less disposed to tor ture than to kill. They will have an- other aspect to consider. The con- scious infliction of pain is against the better nature of man, and it is un- safe and demoraliZing for any one to undertake this duty. To kill under the seemly conditions science will af- ford is a far less offensive thing The rulers of the future will grudge mak- ing good people into jailers, wardens punishment dealers, nurses and at tendants on the bad. People who can not live happily and freely in the world without spelling the lives of others are better out of it. That is a current sentiment even to-day, but the men of the new republic will have the courage of their opinions.-H. G. Wells in the Fortnightly Review.

The peace rumors, says an eXcnange circulating in London for several days are evidently born of q widespread de sire to bring to a speedy conclusion war in which English military prestige has been so badly damaged. At one time England, on the old Roman prin- ciple of mo mercy to the conquered,' proclaimed that unconditional surren- der was the only basis on which she would enter upon peace negotiations with the Boers. The only answer she received to these terms was a more vigorous prosecution of the war, as shown by the many defeats the Eng fish army has suffered since the publi- cation of the no surrender terms. That the Boers are in q condition to con- tinue the tactics which have produced such results is shown by General Botha's report to President Kruger. He reports that he has under him 24,00U combatants in the Transvaal, the Orange Free State and the northern re- gions of Cape Colony. all fully armed, and nearly all mounted. Of this num- Der 14,000 are veterans who have been and who consequently are seasoned soldiers. It is not necessary to say that these veterans who are fighting for their homes are infinitely superior to the shilling-a-day mercenaries who are pitted against them. Of General Botha's forces, 10000 are Cape Dutch, who have risked their lives and their fortunes to prevent the establishment of English domination over South Af- rica.

The building is one of the main group of exposition struc- lures, and Dr David T. Day is chief of the department. He is assisted by Dr w S. Ward, who is doing the field work The work of arranging for ex- hibits has been systematically and en- ergetically under way for several months. and everywhere the chief and his assistant have found great enthusi- asm among men of wealth and brain interested in the mining industry. The mining exhibits from all of the Rocky mountain country are being prepared with much care. Only the choicest specimens will come to the great fair. In Michigan and Wisconsin special eff fort is being made to collect mineral exhibits of extraordinary value. In Alaska. the Philippine Islands, Cuba and Porto Rico, the United States gov ernment has begun the collection of specimens for extensive mineral exl1ib- it's.
