A QUESTION OF NOM ENT

With the candidates springing up daily the political bee still buzzing in the air, and the date of the county democratic convention less than two weeks distant, the campaign may be said to be fairly on.
 So far the democrats have display ed the most activity, but this is natural when the vote at the last election is considered. A democratic nomination is considered equivalent to an election in many counties in Arizona, and last year Cochise county was no exception to the rule. It is a fact, nevertheless. that with each succeeding year, the voter in local politics, casts an inde- pendent vote, and desires to know more about the qualifications of the candidate for office, than his politics. The government of the county affairs and those of the municipality is busi- ness proposition, and the men best qualified to conduct the business, are the ones that should be chosen.
 The. democratic party of Cochise county is to be congratulated, with one exception, on the able corps of county officials that have served the county for the past two years. They have re fiected credit upon the party and hon or to themselves. If the same party will use the same good judgement in the coming campaign another victory for that party is a foregone conclusion
 On the next democratic convention will rest the blame or praise It ;s their duty to nominate winning tick ct and to do this that convention should bear this in mind above all others the qualifications of the candidate for the of1ice.

ARIZONA AND CALIFORNIA

There is a good deal of travel just now in and out of Bisbee. Many are going to the coast
 In speaking of the great amount of travel from Arizona into California and its great result upon the prosper ity of the southern portion of that state, Marcus A Smith. Arizona's delegate to congress stated recently as follows:
 The people of Southern California hardly realize the vast amount Of money that is expended in Los An geles and the surrounding towns and resorts The tourists alone bring into that particular point between s75o,0oo and sS00. 900 alone This amount cf money is distinct from the great amount of money which is expended here in a business way. It would be hard 10 estimate how much money is thrown into circulation here from that avenue alone We do not fairly appreciate what a wonderfu~support the territory of Arizona is to the grow ing condition of Southern California.

REACH THEM THROUGH THE TARIFF.

Trustism's contempt for the authori tv of the courts is being vividly illus ..&,C. y the big beef packers of Chi. cago who are now working to bring about the organization of Beef trust which shall absolutely control the packing business of the United States
 Through the evasion of the letter of the law, the packers now hope to effect merger of their interests in one great corporation which shall definite ly confirm their monopoly of Ameri- can markets. They are enjoined from conspiring to fix arbitrarily the price of meats. With characteristic inso- lence they have failed to file an ans wer to the petition for permanent in- junction. Instead they are busy de vising ways and means to accomplish with more assured certainty the very thing which has been forbidden.
 Acting under the shrewdest legal advice, the beef combine will in all likelihood succeed in the organization of beef trust in defiance of the spir- il of the law and thus perfect their monopoly of American markets. They have in the Steel trust an example proving the ease of this achievement. The fact that. after such a merger has been effected the various plants in the trust will be operated just as they were before, their individual owners profiting with greater safety, does not, as the laws now stand, i'm peril the trusts monopoly. It is a case in which they assume that shape which enables them to enjoy monopoly without being liable to the penalty for monopolIstic control of markets.
 In the impending fight against the trusts it will be folly to strike else where than at their most vulnerable point The first blow delivered by the people should be in the form of a re- vision of the tariff and a removal of the duties on all trust products. This blow alone will insure victory for the people. A failure to institute tar1R reform will constitute . surrender to the trusts. As long as the Dingley tarih remains in effect the. trusts ere ated and maintained by that tariff are impregnabls. They must be reached and tAsir evils powsrs eliminated by means oe . Wise reform q the tarf&

The communication in yesterday Review from Tombstone was not re. ceived with very good grace by our people. It is just this attitude ui Tombstone towards Bisbee that has precipitated the present county seat fight. As to the location of the court house, Bisbee has found ample room for s75,000 hotel, similar gymnas. ium building and now the foundation is being laid for a beautiful church edifice. Perhaps the court house can find resting place in the same neigh borhood.

have been reached as there are news papers.
 Most of the political prophets gener- ally concede the entire north to Will son and the south to Shannon, which by no means is the case. It has come to light that MT. shannon has a fight on his hands in iiis own county and that if he secures an instructed dele gation it will be by a close margin. The same report is abroad in relation to Yavapai county and Col Wilson, but conceding both candidates their home counties. neither one is certain of the nomination op the first ballot.
 Maricopa county will no doubt again be the ballot ground and in all proba- bility that county will cast it's first ballot for Hon. Franh Cox. In this event Wilson would have a slight ma iority. as undoubtedly Gila county, and. possibly. Pima county will cast their vote for Wilson on the first bal lot.
 With a three-cornered fight and Mar icopa the battle ground, another dead lock may be expected. the outcome of which no man can tell.
 Dark horses are in training under cover and are hoping for lightning to strike them, and there are several good democrats who would poll more votes than some of those now in the race

THE ISTHMIAN CANAL.
Must the United States, Too, Indulge
 In a Panama ScandalP

Chicago Inter Ocean (Rep.)
 The new converts of the transconti- kill every project for an isthmian canal, urge three points in favor of the pur- chase of the Panama Canal:
 First-The Panama Canal is shorter than the Nicaragua Canal, and there fore will be of greater advantage to American commerce.
 Second-The Panama Canal is at sea level, and therefore will be more advant- ageouS than any other isthmian canal with locks and dams.
 Third-If the Panama Canal Company will sell its property and rights on the isthmus for $4O0OO,OO0, ship canal under American control may be built on that route more satisfactorily than on the Nicaragua route.
 To which the evident replies are:
 First-While the Panama Canal would Panama route for shippers would be longer. The Nicaragua route between New York and San Fran cisco, or between New Orleans and Manila is two days shorter than the Panama route.
 Second-Thc statement that the Pan- anna Canal is partially constructed at the sea level is false. The canal was planed and advertiser as sea-level ca nal, but in 1887 it changed to a lock canal, and the dams contemplated by the engineers are more difficult of con. struction than any on the Nicaragua Canal.
 HTu-lI lnt du1lid ' dttdI COHlpduy would sell its property and rights on the isthmus for S1 ,000 to say nothing Of $40,OOO,000 1t would not be possible for the United States to construct on that route an American canal under American control.
 If the United States should purchase all the rights and property of the Pan- anna Canal Company, our engineers would still have eight years work before them, providing they could solve several prob lems now regarded as unsolvable and meantime. would not have single con cession giving this country control of the canal
 However. the convincing argument against the Panama project just now is that il is advocated most furiously by the transcontinentll railway lobby. This lobby is against the canal. Therefore. when it advocates the Panama Canal 1t gives proof that it knows the Panama Canal is impossible.
 Yet this lobby finds newspapers to fool the people for it-COngressmen to shout buncombe for it. Shame on such perfidy! Must America. too. have Its Panama scandal?

A Parisian Cemetery, for Animals

Edouard Charles in Strand Magazine
 London has it's burial ground for the pet dogs and cats of the wealthy close to Hyde Park; in Brussels there IS d cemetery for this purpose in the Laeken Park, but 1t Is in Paris, where nothing IS done by halves that is, worth doing at ait that will be found the finest of all ani- mai grayeyards, and this notwithstand- ing that it is the newest.
 La Necropole ZooicgiQue, as the spot IS named, is situated some short distance outside the capital itself, at Asnieres, in the center of the River Seine.
 Funerals here vary in price just as with the undertaken who caters for our cus- tom. An animal can be buried as cheap ly as francs, or as much as oD or lVu francs can be paid, and this Is merely tor interment and includes no monument. A simple grave, without any permission to erect any monument, costs the lowest sum just mentioned, but for b francs IS granted a three years lease of piece or ground. In these cases the animals must be taken to the cemetery by their own. CTS. For 25 francs, however, a i've years lease is obtained, while ten years costs 50 francs, twenty years 15 francs thirty oS CT fifty years 200 francs. and the high prices of 800 and 1000 francs are charged for graves in exceptional situations, ta- kens of course, with the, idea of erect ing magnificent monuments thereon From D francs upward the charge also includes the transport of the deceased from the house to the cemetery in tho official carrier tricycle.. ridden by uni formed eyclist. At moderate prices the company also supplies collins, takes pho tographs, and disinfects the apartment W therein the animal expired; and knowing that few people care to keep defunct creatures near them, the company has also provided place where the corpse can await interment at charge or francs a day.
 Of course no ceremony of any kind is permitted in connection with the burial at the grave side, neither are there all lowed on the graves any decorations which would be likely to give offense to religious feeling Consequently 1t is ( cemetery without singie cross, and though the graves are kept green and
 beautiful with growing Bowers, nd wreaths. real or artitcial, will be found thereon. i.,lN

Can Teddy Break the RecordP

Albany Argus.
 To md Vice President who has become President of the Tinted States by popular cleo tion. since the days of nominating conven- lions. one must go back more than sixty years Martin Van BuTen, who elected Vice President with Jackson in 1882 was elected as old Hickory's successor in the Presidency in 1886. He enjoyed the advantage of being a great power in politics in ths Empire State and all that President Jackson's admnistra tion could do for him was successfully eN erted in his favor. From that day to this no Vice President has attained the Presidency except by the accident of death. Theodore Roosevelt stands today where John Tyler Willard Fillmore. Andrew Johnson and Cheste.

Success of Little Women.

The success of little women stars has often been remarked upon. Whether it is sympathy or what not that makes the little woman drawing power. would be hard to say. In the past. two of the most successful female stars were mites, Maggie Mitchell and Lotta Crab tree. Annie Pixley, Minnie Palmer and Katie Putnam were likewise trinity whose success was the antithesis of their size. Women of ample. dimensions scratches in'' once in while, as was the case of Fanny Davenport and Mary Anderson; but, as a,rule. it is the dim inutivenes who carry off the blue rib- bons. Nowadays we have Maude Adams. Annie Russell and Mrs. Fiske-all three in the pony class. Adelaide Thurston is entitled to enter in the same division. and 1t may as well be remarked that the popular "Lady Babbie" should not put on frills and wear high heels in Sweet Clover to make herself look tall! It is the sprightly talented little women like Miss Thurston who catch on to the public's heart strings, and become the Dublic'S net
