TEMPE

Some substantial facts have come out
in regard to the voting contest that has
been carried on in Tempe during the
past week. in the diamond. ring contest
given by the Wizard Oil company. The
right to vote was obtained by buying
medicine or securing tickets of adInis-
SION. The amount of medicine bought
and the number of tickets sold show
that there could not have been over
$4,000 votes, and these votes We're
nearly all cast before the show opened
on Saturday evening, leaving only
seventy more votes to be secured by
buying medicine for that night. Nearly
$1,000 more votes We're cast, and the
fact is that the number of votes OBJ
tanned on Saturday night fell far short
of this number. This leaves the i'm
preston with the people of Tempe
that the Wizard Oil company was
here for other purposes than securing
the benefits of the substantial Ari-
IONA sunshine.
The recent rain and the sight of
snow upon the distant mountains has
caused a ticklish thrill of pleasure to
creep UP the spines of the Tempe mer-
chants.
Charles a. Miller, magician for the
Wizard oil company, who for the past
week has been playing to crowded
houses in Tempe, relates amusing stor-
les of his experiences while touring the
country He speaks of one instance
where his magic failed him, and in his
own words relates the following:
'One of the most amusing Incidents
that ever happened to me while travel
ing about the country. was at time
when the box trick was a favorite card.
To perform it 1 allowed myself to be
fastened in a sack, after which l was
locked in a trunk. Someone in the
audience was then allowed TO wind
cords about the trunk and tie ii Sc
curely. 1t was then placed in a cab
met. from which, to the establishment
of all, moment later I emerged bow
ing and smiling. This act always
brought down the house and was a
subject of discussion long after I had
left. I gave my performance one night
in a small town. After the show was
bver 1 went to a little hotel and re-
tired for the night. The old man who
kept the hotel showed me to my room
with all the difference that he would
have rendered king. The bed in the
room was a folding one. No sooner
had lain down than it closed like a
jack-knife. Fortunately for me ] rea-
liked what was happening in time to
roll to one side, so when the bed closed

which I did with all the strength of
my lungs. Finally 1 succeeded in max
ing myself heard. Soon the landlord
came to the door and wished to know
the cause of my yells.
This cursed bed has shut up and
caught me in it, / shouted.
WAL, why don't We git out?' he
drawled.

mand for increased wages, shortened hours ana
easier conditions of labor. Such demands are
legitimate. Any workman in the world has a
right to ask for higher pay, and to quit work
ing If he does not get it. But it is far ad-
vanced application of the arbitration principle
TO say that whenever such demand is made
a third party is to be called in TO determine
whether or not the increase shall be granted
Most employers will be reluctant to cOncede that
outside parties shall manage their businesses
for them to such an extent as to determine
what wages they shall pay their employees. Nor
are sure that wOrkmen will generally and
permanently relish having their wages arbi-
trarily fixed for them by men who have no con-
Germ in the business 1t may be that such
system is desirable but it should be adopted
only with full realization of its purport
The salient and paramount feature of the
case is the need of moderation and deliberation
on both sides. 1t seems regrettable that this
tentative strike has been ordered. For If it is
decided on Wednesday not to strike there will
have been n loss of hundreds of thousands OF
dollars all for nothing, while, on the other hand
if the decision should be to strike it would be
just as well to wait until then for the beginning
OF ii. So far as can see, absolutely nothing
is to he gained by this tentative strike, while
much Is certain TO be lost and much more is
likely TO be lost by ii. Nevertheless. it has
been ordered and will. we suppose, he executed.
We can only hope that it will he conducted with
lawabdng moderation. and that in spite Of 1t
wise counses will prevail upon both sides, so
that on Wednesday some honorable way may he
found TO avoid struggle which would GER
tainly be costly and which might easily prove
disastrous.

OUR DOCK SYSTEM.

The pleas of the steamship men for the most
extensive and liberal development Of the dock
system of Manhattan Island that can possibly
be hurried onward are sound and reasonable
As these experts say, every million Of dollars
which New-York uses for its docks brings In
generous and unfailing returns. For its wharves
and waterfront privileges the city gets lavish
profits. 4 niggardly policy concerning its piers
has enriched New-Jersey and injured Manhat-
tan. New-York should have the finest dock sys-
tenn in the world a system which no other
great port can equal or even approach.
The millions of pounds which Liverpool has
expended upon its waterfront were invested
wisely. and have been exceedingly ganful to
the famous city on the Mersey British com
merce has been greatly expanded by the outlay
upon harbor improvements at every port of
try which gave opportunity for the increase of
trade. Every part of the United Kingdom, and
especially the importing and exporting commu-
mites on tidewater, has largely benefited
by the vast amounts which have been used for
the betterment Of British docks. France and
Germany and other Continental countries have
also found il Of advantage TO improve their har
bors and spend money freely upon their piers
and their waterfront approaches.
NewYork rentals from wharves run up to
lofty figures No city property of any other
kind is so lucrative. Exceptional attention
should therefore he paid to the rapid enlarge
ment OF the dock system of the city. Great
steamship lines have been compelled by munic
ipal mismanagement in past years 10 go over
the North River and seek refuge in Hoboken
Every one of the important companies should
have its piers on the waterfront of the Borough
of Manhattan or the Borough of Brooklyn, and
the additional wharves needed should be built
with all possible speed.

TIE THREATENED COAL STRIKE.

tentative strike order has been issued in the
anthracite coal region. According to its terms
general strike is TO begin to-day pending
an authoritative and final decision on Wednes-
pday next The strike may thus be only three
days affair or il may be indefinitely prolonged
That there will be any strike at all must be a
smatter of profound regret TO all Observers The
interests involved are large and the losses
suffered Will be enormous. Even three days
strike will cause loss TO the miners in wages
of more than S50O0O0. Should Wednesdays
decision be in favor of prOlonging it the loss
would speedily rise into the millions And such
loss would fall not only upon the miners, but
upon the general public, not only in the mining
region, but throughout the country-wherever
anthracite coal is Used. In view of such re-
suits, the menace of a strike must be regarded
graFeIy, and every endeavOr should be made
10 avert so costly a catastrophe
There will be, of course and indeed there is
already, the usual disagreement as to the cause
of the strike and the responsibility for it, Each
side blames the other. That is human nature.
Everybody is queer except thee and me- and
thee is a little queer" In such case the ont
yide observer is likely TO conclude that both
sides are blameworthy TO some extent and such
Judgment will probably not be unjust. There
has unquestionably arisen an idea that the
operators-the railroad and mining companies
pre- not at all averse to a strike but that they
would welcome one as affording an opportunity
pf clearing of stocks at an advance and of eff
fectng large saving on payrOlls. We sincerely
hope this suspicion is groundless, but it must
be confessed that the operators do not seem TO
have taken any pains to rid themselves of it
They may be serene. They are certainly taci-
turn, and they convey to the general public the
impression Of being resolved TO "sit tight" and
let things take their course regardless of conse-
quences. Sitting tight" Is sometimes admir-
able. But safety valve is not always the best
thing TO sit upon.
The miners have shrewdly commended them
selves to favor by making II appear that they
are desirous of submitting the whole case to
arbitration, and also by expressly stipulating i'm
the tentative strike order that pumping engines
etc, are not TO be interfered with so that the
mines viii not be flooded or otherwise damaged
1T will be observed, however that they carry
the demand for arbitration TO a point far be-
yopd what would little time ago have seemed
reasonable. Arbitration has long been deemed
fitting In cases of alleged breach of or failure to
fuini contract or Of dispute over the terms of a
coauact. But there is apparently nothing of
tne sort IN this case. According TO the strike
