EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT

their utmost in that direction, appar-
emily without fear and without favor.
Until the pursuit of the briber is as
arduous as the pursuit of the bribed
until the corruptionists who run great
corporations, and their TOOLS, cam be
assured that there is serious danger to
them as well as to their creatures in
Office, of assuming the Relationship to-
ward society of convicted criminals
there is little hope that the same meas
ure of disgrace will attend the opera
tions of the bribe giver which marks
those of the bribe taker. To bring this
about the first requirement is that fear
less and able prosecuting officials be
elected by the people. 1t has been too
often demonstrated that the powerful
influences of business society can be
successfully invoked to shield roguery
of this character, and to tolerate the
rogue in position of influence and
power.

A WORD TO CHRISTMAS SHOP.
PERS.

According to the advertising columns
Of The Citizen, which can always be
relied upon as good index of what
the merchants of Tucson have to offer
to the public, the stores of the city are
well stocked with articles suitable for
Christmas presents. News advices and
editorial comment inform us that we
are a prosperous people, and have
plenty of money to spend for the pur-
pose of making others happy.
These are the two necessary condi-
tions of Christmas shopping. The
stores will have no better stocks a
week or two hence, and in all proba
bility the prospective purchaser will
have no more money to spend. The
bane Of Christmas shopping is the rush
and crowding which most people seem
The Tucson citizen., 1902-12-08
The First skaters.

1t is very doubtful which race first
skated, for traces have been found
among prehistoric remains all over
northern Europe indicating that the
art was practiced by primitive peoples.
The Eskimo of the farthest north are
also found to be in possession of run
ners carved from whalebone.
Skating is mentioned by a Danish
historian about 1874, and Fitzstephen
in his History of London SAYS that
in the twelfth century young men
fastened the leg bones of animals un.
der their feet by means of thongs in
order to slide along the ice. This
statement is confirmed by the pair of
bone skates of the period now in the
British museum. 1t is likely, however,
that these early Londoners got the
idea from Holland, probably via Lin
colnshire, where skates have been
used on the frozen fens from very re-
mote times.
The Tucson citizen., 1902-12-08

to consider as necessary an adjunct Of
the season as Santa Claus himself
This is largely due to the fact that the
majority delay their purchasing until
reason for this procrastination. Those
who intend to buy Christmas presents
doubtless have formed an idea of the
character, quality and cost of the gifts.
They will be able to make better Sc
lections by going early than by waiting
a week or two.
Aside from considerations which ap-
peal to self-interest, such as the possi-
bility of securing articles before they
have been picked over by countless
hands, and avoiding the holiday jostle
it is we'll to call attention to the clerks
who have some rights which the kind
hearted are willing to respect. If the
purchasers would arrange their time
to do their shopping in the morning
much of the congestion would be re-
lieved, and the employees would find
their labors accordingly lightened.
Surely this is not too much to ask
It is a sad commentary ON the most
joyous festival of the year that most
of it's pleasure should be produced at
the expense of suffering carelessly i'm
posed on the clerks in the stores.
And-this is most essential-purchase
your presents in Tucson. You can be
as we'll served here as in Los Angeles
or San Francisco, or Denver or Chi
cago. Keep your money at home
The Tucson stores are filled with the
latest attractions, and it is the part of
patriotism and public spirit to patron
ize the home merchants.

ID labor with your hands instead Of

Paul l. of Russia was very deaf and
also very tyrannical. One day an
aid-de-camp, intending to please him.
approached and cried in his ear, Il
am glad to see, your majesty, that
your hearing is much improvedw
what is that you say?" growled the
czar.
Raising his voice, the aid-de-camp
said, Il am glad that your majesty s
hearing is SO much improved!'
"Ah, that's it, eh?' chuckled the
czar, and then added, Say it once
more.'
The aidde-camp repeated the words.
whereupon Paul |. thundered, $50 you
dare to make fun of me. do you? Just
wait awhile"
Next day the aid-de-camp was on
his way to the mines of Siberia.

THOMRS BRACKET REED.

The death of Thomas B. Reed is a
national loss. He was a great and an
honest man. He was endowed with
the greatest intellect in the Republican
party, and his superb courage and
aggressive boldness made him a natural
leader of men.
Mr.. Reed was the last of the purely
theoretic statesmen of his party. His
environment made him protectionist
but he never surrendered to the COM
mercialism that now controls the Re-
publican party. The rise of Hanna
meant the downfall of Reed. When
the Republican party became mere
promoter of trusts, and embarked the
country In a career of conquest and
imperialism, Mr.. Reed retired from
public life. He could not consistently
affiliate with the Democratic party,
and his conscience forbade him to
serve in a cause of which Hanna and
Elkins and Aldrich were the high
priests.
Mr.. Reed was clean in both private
and public life When he resigned his
seat in the House of Representatives
and surrendered the Speakership, he
was not worth a thousand dollars in
this worlds goods. But he leaves a
name that will live in history. and es-
tablished precedents that will long gov
ern the popular branch of the Congress
of the United States. He was in many
respects unique, but his chief charac-
teristic was answering, consistent, in.
domitable boldness and honesty.

TRUST REMEDIES.
s..tl tli.S'

1t is reported from Washington that
numerous bills will be presented at this
session for repression of trusts, and it
is to be hoped that there will be. The
opportunity is now given to the Re-
publican party to show what it can do
to remedy the trust evil without inter-
fering with the sacred tariff, and if a
number of bills are offered, there will
be no excuse remaining for not select
ing some of the plans offered by Repub-
lican statesmen. 1t will bring the ques-
ton to more concrete form and enabl
the people to judge intelligently of the
merit of the policy adopted.
There are unQuestionably some
things that can be done to restrict trust
evils without changing the tariff laws
One is the removal of the discrimina-
tfon in freights. 1t is certain that the
Standard Oil company built up its
monopoly chiefly through this agency
1t has been proven repeatedly 1t has
also been proven that other trusts have
adopted the same policy, and the latest
investigation shows that all the trusts
are getting the benefit of discrimina-
tio1ts in freight rates, and that they
are thereby given an unfair advantage
over their law-abiding competitors.
This evil can easily be remedied by
giving the interstate commerce COM
mission power to enforce its decisions
1t has repeatedly asked an amendment
to the law granting this power, and the
same thing has been petitioned for by
shippers of all classes, but the Republi-
can majority in Congress has obstinate
ly refused to grant the request. Why
it should refuse is inexplicable, except
on the theory of undue influence exer-
cised by the beneficiaries or by the
railroad companies. 1t can not posi-
bly, benefit legitimate industries to have
discrimination in freight rates.
If Congress should remedy this evil
alone, it would be greater step
toward the correction of trust evils
than has yet been taken But we do
not anticipate that it will be done.
There is no reason to believe that the
old influences will be any less power
full that they have been in the past, or
that the Republican leaders will be any
more difficult to control The probabil.
ity is that We shall have more of the
same old evasion and subterfuge that
have characterized the government s
dealings with the trusts in the past.
But whatever is done, or is mot done
the fighting will be brought more clear
ly into the open.

HER FRENCH A FAILURE.
T6e T~RGedy of 81 Backing Bottle
In the Latin Quarter

gae T~sgedy of Backing Bottle
In the Latin Quarter.
She was spending her first month in
tAe Latin quarter of Paris. She spoke
English fluently, with Boston accent;
also she spoke German, could make o
fair stagger at Italian and knew few
words of Hindoostanee, but of French
not a syllable.
One morning she found herself in a
wrestling match with a bottle of
french shoe backing. The pesky bot
tie, understanding that it had to deal
with an alien, refused to give up its
cork. She had no corkscrew of her
own and did not know how to ask for
one, even if she dared suspect that her
next door neighbor might be possessed
Of the luxury. The tine of her pet fork
she had bent on the obstinate plug, the
point of her best penknife she had bro
ken off short, and nothing remained
except to throw the bottle out of a
window to get at it's contents. She de-
cided as last resort to try breaking
the neck off the bottle. With stove
lid litter" she administered several
cautious taps in the region of the jugu-
lar of the obstinate neck. "Nothin
doin'." Then she tapped harder still,
and the backing came. All over her
fingers it came all over her light wool
en- skirt and over much of the floor and
window sill.
She decided to have the skirt cleaned
and. packing it into bundle. tripped
off to an establishment where she
found embarrassment because she
could not understand questions Final
ly she got the drift of the conversation.
The cleaners wanted to know what
had caused the spot. Fortunately
bottle of shoe backing was standing
near by, and she pointed at this and
'Ouid" and "ouid' until she left in
heightened spirits, feeling that she was
not helpless and that she had made the
cleaners understand. When the skirt
was duly returned the following week,
it was dyed black.-New York Tribune.
