We were informed by yesterdays dispatches from London that Botha would have already surrendered to Kitchener but for an unfortunate in- ability to agree on the terms. If we remember rightly 1t was some such difficulty In reaching an agreement that started the war in the first place. One of the propositions over which BOuha and Kitchener are haggling Is the surrender of DeWet. and that en- ergetlc person refuses to contribute to the establishment of peace by allowing himself to be surrendered

 It was not strange that sensible democrats were led into the ridiculous position In which they now found themselves. From a democratic point of view. the object of council bill No. 107 was Q desirable one. It had been drawn by Mir. Ives. who is said to be a lawyer. and If any member who is not a lawyer had entertained a doubt of its validity, that circumstance would naturally have removed It. The pass age of the bill has already been de- nounced by the leading democrats of the territory. who say 1t will have the effect of bringing the party Into ridi- cuae. They are desirous that the blame rest not upon the majority of the leg islature. but upon MT. Ives alone, who conceived the folly and forced 1t through.

Advocakes of "art for arts sake cannot but be distrsssed at tho incrcas.

 the sensibihties of the lover of pure literature to read the tinsling verses which stare him in the face with their rhythmical praises of pickles. prunes and pants. Somehow It seems the height Of dIsre- spect to the muses to tag them with the labels of a "eommerciap age; 1t is like decorating The Sphinx with the show bills of a travelling circus.
 Yet. If one Is looking for compensa- tions. they are present even here. It Is pretty certain from the most casual textual criticism that the commercial poem Is not written by the "bards of passion and of mi.'th" who are writing the deathless songs of this age through the magazines.

The rule of Mir. Ives Is ended It was absolute in both houses while 1t lasted
 and might have lasted THE indefinitely if Mir. Ives FOLLY OF Judgment and ability MIR. IVES. had proved equal to his
 energy and audacity. No presiding officer of an Arizond leg islature within our recollection has ex- ercised such complete control. not only over his own branch. but of both. No one else had the effrontery to assume such power and to the credit of Mir. Ives predecessors in comparison with him. none of them have resorted to open and disgraceful lobbying and when that failed to fiercely welding the party whip. We certainly have never seen another president of the council invade the house on the eve of a roll call and pass from member to member and cajole and threaten them into line. That has occurred many times during the present session and on every such occasion legislation was enacted. the wisdom of which has since been doubted by men who helped enact It. A leader who leads his fol- lowers Into doubtful ways cannot long remain a leader. That many condone an act which involves them in wrong. but when they have been led Into disaster or ridicule. they resent the leadership. Many members of both the council and the house are now turning against Mir. Ives. and we pre- dict that within a week he will be without supporter in either house. Counci! bill 1O7 was the death of MT. l Ives influence. He made 1t a purely | party measure. crowded 1t through both houses with the most indecent and then-found that he had run against the organic act.

 self about to be enrolled THE in the great army of the WORD unemployed on account "NIGGER." of the public expression
 of his resentment at the word "nigser." used withoue opprobri- ous intent by Mir, Barkley of Pima in the course of a speech against woman suffrage the day before. MT. Phillips should have taken into consideration the very observable circumstance that Mir. Barkley was not at himself that day and that he said many worse things than 'nigger" wWh not only no evil meaning. but with no meaning whatever.
 Then. again, as janitor of the assem- bly we do not think Mir. Phillips was authorized by the terms of his employ ment by the federal government to lm- pugn In a public manner the words of Q member of the house. He could, of course. in a private conversation ex- press his disapproval of the members and measures. bur he ought to have restrained himself from rushing into that sodly journal, the Gazette. which moulds public opinion In great and numerous chunks like the brick ma chine at Alhambra moulls brick That brick of opinion thrown into the house yesterday morning created consterna- tion. Then the house picked 1t up and handed 1t back 10 Mir. Phillips. who is the hardest hit after all.
 "Nigger" Is not q bad word; not so bad as "Chink." "Dago." "Greaser." which we sometimes call our friends of the southern republic. or 'Gringo." which they lovingly call us in reply. "Nlgger Is a natural corruption If the word negro" because 1t can be pronounced more quickly and more easily. and the tendency in language Is to short cuts at fhe expense of po- aiteness. We suspect that the real an- imus of Mir Phillips complaint was not the offensive word. bul Mir. Bark ley's more offensive attitude on the equal suffrage question. Mr. Phillips belongs to race which once had to scrap for the privilege of voting. His sympathies would naturally lie with any race or class or sex which might be asplrin' to the same right. which We who are born to 1t do not appre- clate as highly as we should. The house itself has crowned the er- TOT which Mir. Phillips inaugurated by taking serious cognixance of his cen- sure and endeavoring to deprive him | of the A day he would enjoy until | March 2i.

The committee on police of Benwood
Council fell into line last evening with
Wheeling's Committee of One Hun
dred, SO it is understood, and took
steps which will lead eventually to a
more rigid enforcement of the town
ordinances with reference to the sa-
looms, gambling devices and chicken
fights. The committee is composed Of
Messrs. Stewart, Miner and Whalen
and it met at the city hall behind
closed doors. After the session efforts
to learn something of the proceedings
proved futile, one of the members be-
ing quoted as saying that all the COM
mitteemen were not present and moth
ing was transacted for publication.
However it was later learned from a
reliable source that the committee de-
cided to meet regularly every month
in the future and instructed the police
to report on each occasion to nswer
questions regarding municipal affairs.
One %conversant with the action taken
also stated that the committee rec
commended the issuance of an order
a%bolishing particularly the business Of
~"growlers" on Sunday.
The committees intentions became
known yesterday afternoon and one
OF the members was interviewed. He
stated hat the evening session had
been called especially for the purpose
Of devising some means of reform in
city affairs and that there were sew
enal things requiring the committees
undivided and immediate attention.
When questioned as to the proposed
iniative steps in the matter he said
that they would notify the police de-
partment to enforce to a "T'' the laws
against gambling by means of the slot
machines, the cock fights, the rush
ing of GROWERS on Sunday and the sale
OF intoxicants to minors. He also said
that he had been informed of two
cooking mains occurring within a
week or more and that one fight had
been pulled off at a Churchman'S resi-
dence.
