The Pan-American congress in ses- sion in the City of Mexico has given the delegates from the United States an opportunity to impress upon the rep resentatives of other nations the fact that We want no more territory, and that 1t is proposed to maintain the Monroe Doctrine in all it's integrity. An excellent impression has been made by the delegates, as evidenced by the unanimous request of the congress that former Senator Davis take the permanent presidency of the body. Senator Davis tactfully declined. and said that the Americans were not there for preferment office, but to advance q general spirit of amity among all American nations. The Spanish Americans. who always do things gracefully. elected Secretary of State John Hay honorary president by' exclamation. If nothing more results from the congress than an understand ing or the part of our southern neigh bors as to the friendly attitude of the United States, much good will have been done.

It is not generally known that the largest dam ever constructed by man is now building for New York city. and that work on it has been in progress for the past eight years. This is, of course, the new Croton dam that is ex- pected to increase the area of Croton lake to nineteen or twenty miles in length and to insure a storage capac- ity of thirty billion gallons. The con- tract for this big work was let in 1892. and since then from TOO to 1000 men have been at work on it. The main wall is 200 feet thick at the bottom and 1000 feet long. with a spillway con- nected with it that is another 1000 feet long. The main wall goes underground 15O feet. and 1t will tower 150 feet above ground. narrowing as 1t rises. All of the granite used in the wall is quar- ried back of Peeksvili. three miles away. and every stone is there trim med to fit a designated place in the wall and so numbered before it leaves the quarry. How far this new dam is going to solve New York's water problem is still a matter of contro- versy, and to some extent of politics.

Former Senator George L. Shoup of
 that in his opinion con- THE THREE gress will admit the TERRITORIES three territories of OR NONE Arizona, Oklahoma
 and New Mexico to- gether. or none. It is to be hoped that this prediction Is we'll founded, as it is generally conceded thnt Oklahoma will be admitted as a state at the com ing session If congress takes the view that all three territories should be con sidered together the position of Ari- zona and New Mexico will be mater ially strengthened. It is misfortune for this territory and the west gen. erelly that Senator Shoup. who has been a consistent friend to Arizona. Is no longer a member of the senate. His friendship now Is valued none the less. however. and his suggestions will have great weight with the members of the committee on territories. of which he was so long the distinguished chair man. His successor. Fred T. Dubois is also an able man. and on account of his former service in the senate, an influential member. We think he can be relied upon to support statehood heartily.
 Delegate Rodey of New Mexico is out in an open letter to his constituents, in which he urges them to write letters in behalf of statehood to every member of congress that they know. This is an excellent suggestion. It Is one which The Republican has several times made to the people of Arizona. and which is being acted upon by large number of our enterprising citi- zens. The work in this direction should be pushed with untiring energy.
 The Phoenix board of trade has wise ly appointed a standing committee to carry on the campaign in every way that effective work can be done. and the labors of this committee will prop erly supplement the activities of the committee appointed by the territorial convention while in no manner inter- fering with the duties assigned to that committee.
 One of the points to be made promi- nent with members of the house and senate should be the justice of con sidering the claims of all three terri tories together.

as c. Platt and Matthew s. Quay, for example. And incidentally. it is strange that such lessons are lost on the shoals of politicians throughout the country who aspire to leadership. The whole secret of success is summed up in the words energy. fidelity and truthfulness.
 Yet, notwithstanding his long and supremely successful career as a party leader, it is doubtful whether Richard Croker now. twenty-four hours after his crushing defeat. can say that the misfortune which has overtaken him at last does not more than offset all the pleasure and success which has att tended his career. old, with little of life to look forward to. cast aside and trampled by the millions whom he has ruled so long, it must occur to him that there is something more in earth ly existence than mere political and financial success for time. and that something more-a good name. and the esteem of his fellow men. It must occur to him that after all. the phiioso- phy of life comprehends more than the simple rules and utility of retaining political leadership. The humble la borer with hands unsoiled by dis honest dollars, surrounded by wife and children and cheered by the unselfish friendship of a small group of friends. is happier than the fallen Richard Croker of today.

Andrew Carnegie expects to invest over thirty millions of dollars in the technical training school to be erected in Pittsburg. The endowment fund will probably be twenty-five millions of dol lars, and the school will be the finest of the kind in. the world. No better monument could be erected by any man.. The grounds of the new institute will contain sixty acres. and nothing will be left undone to make the project a success. Carnegie made his money in Pittsburg. and he is now spending it there for the benefit of the coming generations of workers.

pHoENfx. ARIZONA. NOV. '. 1901.

The overthrow of Tammany Hall in Tuesdays election in New York was
 n crushing blow to the THE greatest boss the dem PASSING ocratic party has even OF CROKER. known-Richard Croker.
 Although he is reported as saying that he proposes to remain in politics and to retain the leadership of Tammany. it may be taken for granted that Tuesdays result marks his permanent retirement fl om the au- tocratic position which he has held in New York since the death of John Kelly.
 No more remarkable man than Rich ard Croker is to be found in all the history of American politics. The death on Saturday last of Edward Stokes. the slayer of Jim Fisk. recalls the fact that 1t is little more than a score of years ago since Stokes and Croker were confined in the Tombs prison during the same period under charges of murder. At the same time there were twenty other prisoners in the Tonbs likewise charged with mur- 
 pher, George Francis Train, was also an inmate of the prison, and he or gan;zed, as he afterwards stated. a ''murierers' club" which comprised in its membership Stokes. Croker, and all the others. Train promised them that he would see that not Q member of the club was hanged-and none was. Crok- CT was charged with killing a man in an election row. It was never definitely known who did the killing. and Croker was acquitted. In those days the flu ture boss was deemed as nothing more than an exceedingly efficient ward heeler, whom to tackle physically was a dangerous proposition His subse- quent rise to power is one of the mar vels of our institutions. For years he has been the most powerful individual in the politics of the United States. Without education he rose from pow years since his poverty was a subject of comment. Today he is rated as millionaire several times over. Where he got it. is positively known only to himself. But when 1t is remembered that some of the greatest corporations in the world are largely at the mercy of the ruling power in New York city, it is not difficult to guess some of the sources of his income.
 It Is generally considered as won derful in the extreme that Mir. Croker should have retained his leadership and power so long. But his most inti- mate friends say that the explanation is very simple. Added to an individu- ality unique for its force and excel lent balance, and a genius for com manding men which is given to few mortals. is the fact that Croker has uniformly been true to his friends" He has been commended for his truth fulness by his most merciless enemies. In this respect he has displayed the characteristics observed in other ex- ceptionally successful 'bosses,'' Thom-

In allowing crimes Of all kinds to
be run in this city with i'm
punity, it might be asked whether or
not the chief of police is doing his
duty in not suppressing the same?
That he is not doing his duty the
Pie-maker has the law of the state
and the ordinances of the city to re
fer the citizens to, in charging that
he is not. Touching the police du-
ties the following is taken from the
city charter, being the second article
under the duties of the chief of po-
lice: '"Ihe chief Of police or any
police officer, or any regular or spe-
cial policeman shall make arrests
with warrants for any crime or VIC
lation Of the laws Of the state or
any ordinance Of the city committed
within the city, and shall make ar
rests without warrants in such cases
as shall be prescribed by ordinance,
until the city council prescribe such
cases all arrests may be made without
warrant. The chief Of police shall
keep a correct record of all arrests
made by him or other members of
the police force, showing the time
and cause of complaint upon which
each arrest was made, with a list and
description Of all property and
money taken from each person, with
a statement of the disposition made
of the same, and make a full report

THE GAMBLING EVIL.

But few days ago a colored man
who kept gambling house was
strung up by the citizens Of Alden
Bridge, Louisiana, because he was a
menace to the peace Of the neighbor-
hood in the keeping Of such a place.
What a peculiar world this is after
all, and especially for the Brother
in Blackw In the above instance,
he was lynched because he permitted
gambling to 60 on in and about his
premises, and perhaps actually par
ticipating. Now another instance
occurs to our mind, wherein a color
ed man opposed gambling, gambling
houses and gamblers, and for criti-
cising the authorities for permitting
such to be carried on contrary to
the laws Of the land, this colored
citizen was thrown into jail, denied
bail and treated in every respect as
it he was a red-handed murderer or
a big, bold robber. Just what
course the colored citizens of this
country are expected to pursue in
order to be ideal citizens is a very
difficult question for them to solve
under existing circumstances. Gam
bling, whether in Louisiana or
Washington, should be suppressed,
but is seems that there is no need Of
lynching a human being because he
permitted it to go on in his premises,
nor is there any need of putting
man in Jail because he criticises the
authorities for permitting gambling
to go on in the city in which he
lives.

The question Of high saloon Ii
cense is receiving quite a good deal
of the public's consideration and at
tention at present. Better have high
license than practically no license.
High license will at least close up
the cheap criminal dives, and that
would be strong point won by the
decent element Of this community.
Give the city high license, and just
as high as the state law will permit
them to be, for if it does nothing
more it will lessen the number of
resorts in the city.

Ihe city council has granted a
saloon license for saloon to be
opened in the Eighth ward at Smith
cove. For years the citizens of the
Eighth ward have unanimously OPP
posed the opening Of saloon in
that ward, but it seems that their
opposition has been of no avail after
all. The opening of one saloon in that
ward may mean the opening Of one
more, and perhaps, one dozen more.
In short, it may mean that saloons
may be scattered all along the water
front of that ward, and even in the
residence portions of it, and in fu-
ture there will be the same element
to contend with in the Eighth ward
as predominates in the First ward.
1t is disgrace to the civilization Of
the better elements Of any commun-
ity to have saloons opened up in the
resident portions Of a city, as is now
threatening the resident portion of
the Eighth ward. If saloons can be
opened in the Eighth ward, they
may likewise be opened in the Sew
enth, the Third and the Sixth wards,
and thus the present administration
that has been supported from start
to finish by the saloon element, will
have its supporters and knockers in
every ward in the city, and those
knockers will have their public
lounging places for the men and the
voters that they handle to keep the
nresent administration in mower
