of the others vigorously sustain Prest-
dent Roosevelt in his appointment
The prevailing Arizona sentiment is
that if Daniels violated the law pre-
vious to the Spanish-American war,
he atoned therefor ny rendering his
life as a soldier and by his heroism in
the battle of san Juan hill.
Everyone In Tucson knows that this
is lie Mr. Daniels did not receive an
ovation, Forty newspapers of Arizona
have not approved his appointment,
The newspapers OF Arizona, with only
few disgraceful exceptions. have in
diligently reflected the opinion of the
people, and that is that the appoint
ment of Daniels was an affront TO their

A LIAR bAPOSEO.

The people Of Arizona have suffered
much from the liars and takers who
unfortunately. from time to time find
access to the columns of respectable
newspapers We have more than once
called attention to the character of
news" often sent from this Territory
to the newspapers OF California. Last
summer an enterprising liar gave cur
rency to report that the Apaches
were threatening to take the warpath
in the ella Valley and that settlers
were preparing to flee for their lives
Our neighbors in Nogales often, and
always justly. complain that the inter
ests Of their region suffer serious de-
triment from the liars of the press
The greater part of this work Of
falsehood and detraction is done by,
so called. special writer's in the SEN
sational newspapers. but sometimes
conservative newspapers who aim to be
accurate are imposed upon. rhe latest
sufferer in this diret ton is The AS
ISOLATED Press. This rs a news gather
ing association composed OF the prin-
clpal newspapers Of the United States
and its motto and aim are thorough
ness and accuracy.
We regret to have to state that
within few days The Associated Press

trayed. deceived and humbugged and
there is no reason to doubt that it's

TIE REPUBLICAN DILEMMA.

A large number OF Republicans ara
convinced that they must face one or
two things-either a substantial reduc-
tion of the Protective tariff, beginning
with the Cuban schedule, or invite
such an assault on Protection as would
endanger the whole institution.
Either prospect is good for the cou1-
try. The best thing that could happen
would be a deliberate wiping out of
practically the whole Protective sys-
tenn, but the thing that will make that
ultimately possible is such a beginning
as seems inevitable as a result OF the
Cuban question anG the specific de-
mand Tor a removal of a part OF the
outrageously discriminating duties on
steel and iron.
Nowhere in the world are the great
body of consumers subjected to such
rank pillage for the benefit of few
as in this country. The American peo-
pie are patient, but when they act
they act quickly and generally effec-
lively. The Northwest revolted against
Protection ten years ago and swept
the Republican party from power.
There are good indications that the
Northwest is ready for another revolt.

OUR REAL ESTATE BUSINESS.

1t never rains but it pours. Now
that public sentiment seems to be
turning to the Panama route as pre-
ferable to the Nicaragua route for an
isthmian canal, comes one Fredrlc
CORTLAND Penfield, in the North
American Review. and proposes that
we buy the whole isthmus of Panama.
Mr.. Penfield. who unless we are mis-
taken was formerly our Consul-Gen-
eral in Egypt. urges that We are in
vesting in West Indian property, and
ought to control the strategic points
to defend it. Colombia is poor and her
resources are almost exhausted. Her
paper currency is worth only two or
three cents on the dollar. The peo-
pie of Panama do not like Colombian
government, and would be glad to be-
long to the United States.
1t is a dazzling opportunity. But
why stop with the Isthmus? Why not
take In Colombia and Central America
If We are engaged in the real estate
business? We shall need them for
strategic purposes, and when we own
them we can pick out a location for
our canal at our leisure.

Won Taate with Your Throat.


The idea that the sense of taste has
any connection with the throat appears
peculiar at first thought. We have been
possessed with the notion that the
sense of taste lies in the tongue and
the palate. We all speak of fine pal
ate. and many persons express aston
ishment that they can enjoy dclicacy
as well after having had plate fitted
to their mouths by dentist az they
could before they paid u visit TO that
clever gentleman.
The sense of taste is not confined to
the tongue and the palate. but Is more
widely distributed. You taste also with
the epielottis. that little valve at the
base Of the tongue. and the larynx. to
which the epiglottis acts as an assist
ant, also takes part in the process.
Concerning the palate. 1t is noteworthy
that we taste with the soft part, which
is ut the back OF the mouth, but not
with the hard or front palate. That ex.
plains the mystery of the dental plate,
The tonsils do nothing for the sense OF
taste. nor does the uvula.

If the wedge is TO be removed. the
city council must 90 something.
Nothing will ever resrlt from sitting
quietly and watching the clouds roll by.
For more than year the council has
been actively and intelligently at
work plotting the destruction of the
wedge. Is it the intention that its af-
fort shall be like that "of the French
King with ten thousand men. who
marched up the hill and then marched
down again." We hope not

permit two stubborn and unreasonable
people to defeat the desire OF the
community, would be like the COM
mander of regiment permitting one
mutinous soldier to stop the move
ment Of an army. 1t Is the duty OF the
council to do what it can--to reach the
limit so to speak, and the courts, if
necessary. will do the rest.
Let us hope that the council will
see the folly Of futile dalliance with
a couple of unreasonable persons. We
know that man can tie jury, but
the municipality Is not so constituted
that two men can Distract the march
of progress in Tucson. The council
should do something. The people do
mand affirmative action.

A GIANT MONOPOLY.

Tn" Standard Oil Company has inst
declared another quarterly dividend of
$Zoo 600. making a total of $202 900
600 in dividends since 1897 or more
than twrce the entire capital stock of
the organization.
This fact Is OF especial interest IN
connection with the demand of the
Inter State commerce Commission for
an increase of powers. 1t Is notorious
fact that these vast profits of this col
Iosal monopoly are due chiefly to rail
road determinations. by which IL has
been able to destroy competition on all
sides and force the sale of oil prom

THE BRITISH JAPAN TREATY.

that the United States is to some eA-
tend mixed up III the alliance between
Great Britain and Japan, although
there appears to have been no iormal
action by our government,
The treaty was submitted 10 lhe
United States before it was announced,
and though the government made no
formal comment on it there Is a prop
ability that UNOFFICIAL assurances were
given that it would be in line with our
policy
AS a matter of fact. we have little
or no interest III the matter, Great
Britain has been seheming for years
to prevent Russia from getting a sea
port, and from advancing toward the
Indian border. That end will be
as we'll served by getting Japan into
the intervening territory as in any
otAer way. And it is by such moves
that Great Britain has generally been
able to get others to fight her battles.
Russia has always been the friend of
the United States. Great Britain has
never been anything but our open or
secret enemy. Bu. as long as John Hay

Shortly after II o'clock supper was served At seasonable hour the guests departed after wishing the host of the evening fifty years more of con- tinued happiness:
 The forty hours devotion to the blessed sacrament which was com menced at St Patrick's church on Sun day morning at the 6 o'clock mass, was brought to a close at 9 o'clock to- day when a solemn high mass was in which many little girls took part was held. The little girls looked very pretty. During the past two days hundreds of people went to confession and holy commun- ion at St Patrick's church. Several priests from out of town were pres ent to assist the regular priests yester- day and to-day. Among them was the Rev Father Lawless.

PRODUCES HEART BEATS.
Interesting Discovery Reported From

Interesting Discovery Reported From
 the University of Chicago.
 CHICAGO, Dec 9.-The discovery of n new means of causing rhythmic beats in strip of heart muscle is announced from the University of Chicago. The stimulus is oxygen, and Dr. David J. Lingle is the discoverer. He has been working on the lines of Professor Loeb's announcement made two years ago that a solution of salt would start heart to pulsating.
 1t has long been known that the heart is extremely sensitive to oxygen and to carbon dioxide, the gas pro- duced in vitiated air, but heretofore the action of oxygen has been thought to be confined to the purification of the blood. Dr. Lingle shows that this gas has the power directly to sustain the beats of strip of heart muscle re- moved from the body of a turtle and to keep it going for from twenty-four to seventy-two hours. Even then the muscle stopped only because dissolu- tion set in, and, in fact, the strip con- tinued to beat for twenty-four hours of the seventy-two with part of it al. ready dead. 38

 The board of finance met last nichf and indulged in long chat relative t, the Mulcahy school building in til, south snd. It was supposed by som, parties that there is no pressing nect of the school, but this was shown to b, mistake and the fact made plain thu instead of deferring work on the build ing, operations should be pushed. Re terring to the matter after the meetins last night Mir Goss said that nothins would be done to retard the progres. of the work on the new school build ing if he could prevent it. He said ht introduced the matter of new schoo in that district to the city government a year ago because the school official, assured him that it was needed. If fl; was n necessity at that time he knew the want of it must be felt now nor, than ever. He did not understand why the school board had not mad, I.better headway with the work and said if they didn't have it ready by nexi fall they ought to be kicked out.
