CURRENT COMMENT
|F.FF+FE
 The Reign of Reason.

Turning over the editorial pages of good many of our esteemed contem- poraries, we miss, and don't mourn the loss of, the old customary, more or less frantic, appeal to the voters.
 For two or three days before cleo tion and on election day the editors used to implore in the largest, most thrilling print Vote for Smith and save the country, One last stand and rally for our altars and our fires!
 Did any man ever change his mind on account of those exhortations? They have passed out of fashion. The news papers recognize that the results of an election is decided usually some days before election. It is their business to record public sentiment. It is becoming more and more difficult to predict it accurately. The more uncertainty, the wider field for wagers. Political betting has become an important industry with its brokers and its quotations; and we dare say it will yet have a clearing house of it's own. Still. there is much less wool than cry; and, this year, at least. more bluffing than put ting up.''
 We don't believe that there is any less interest in politics, but there Is a great deal less of hysteria and artificial exaltation. The voters have come to a decision quietly. Cockades and but tons. bands and processions amuse the public, especially the small boys, and show, in part, that the campaign funds have been judiciously and honestly ex- pended. But voting is matter oe common sense, reason or habit: and when politicians say that the voters are "apathetic," they mean that the voters are hardheaded and not the dupes of fubdub or excitement.
 Here in this state some of the spout CTS have worked themselves into a pas sion, but the voters seem to be per fectly calm. The case is the same in other states. There Is no fervor The tidal wave" the great wave of popu- lar enthusiasm" and other characters of political meteorology or mythology are absent.
 So much the better. Government is n matter of business. Shall this policy or that be adopted? A plain business question. The voters have put away childish things. Elections are a duty. not pleasure; and even if political transports were desirable, the voters couldn't he expected to fall into a fit every year or two. The election tomor- row will be decided by reason and de- liberation; much better and safer mo- tives than enthusiasm.-New York Sun.

Gallant Yavapai.

The republicans did nobly in nearly not for the purpose of suggesting any unpleasant comparisons that we refer to the proud work done by the repub- licans of Yavapai county. Not only the republicans of the territory, but progressive, public-spirited democrats as well, have a right to feel proud of Yavapai. That county comes up with a round-figure majority of 800 for Robert E. Morrison.
 It has been considered democratic stronghold. To be sure, Governor Mur- phy two years ago carried it by 450 majority, but his personal popularity in his old home county counted for q great deal in Q contest with resident of another county. But in this in- stance two Yavapai men were pitted against each other. J. F. Wilson has been represented as the idol of the Yavapai democracy. Democrats, while admitting the great strength and popu- larity Of MT. Morrison, hooted at the idea that he could carry the county against Wilson.
 There are peculiar reasons why all good citizens should feel good over the result In Yavapai county. It was there that Wilson and his pop-socialistic fol- lowing turned themselves loose in de- nouncing capital. "the Murphys" and the men who had devoted years of their lives and millions of their money in the development of the county's mines and It was in Yavapai county that the most aggressive endeavors were made to array the miners and other laboring men against their employers-all to the end thet Wilson might get their votes.
 The reply oI the. self-respecting. sturdy miners was a crushing majority for Morrison.
 Such result is like a breath of pure ozone from the Bradshaw hills. It gives one renewed confidence in Ari- zona and her sturdy citizenship.
 The Republican has contended throughout the campaign that the peo- pie of Arizona had no use for the labor agitator, the demagogue and the dis turber of public order, and Yavapai county, where the labors of this gentry were the hardest, sustains in good Ari- zona fashion our defense Of the terri tory.

"A missionary from China has been describing the advantages of missions with more frankness than is custom ary," remarks the Providence Journal. Presumably their purpose is to spread the gospel. But an "up-to-date" labor CT in the vineyard must recognize other designs. Missions, this zealous apostle says, mark the best markets in the world. If we succeed in making China a Christian nation we shall be doing something that will pay us com mercially, as well as from a religious point of view. This country has a vital interest in seeing that the gospel is carried to the far east, especially to Corea, which has been placed by Provi- dence as a bulwark against the en- croachments of Russia Germany has used the killing of the brethren as a means of securing territory. But this involves unnecessary bloodshed. The commercial idea is safer and quite as

work, "The True George Washington ,'' has received wide recognition, "the Father of His Country" when he died was worth $53O,OO0. This fortune did not include his wife'property, but nev- ertheless it made him one of the wealthiest Americans of his time Ford says: And it is to be questioned if a fortune was ever more honestly ac- quired or more thoroughly deserved"
 John Adams, however. probably would have differed with Ford on this point had the two ever come together In one of his recurrent moods of bitter ness and jealousy toward Washington, Adams asked: Would Washington have ever been commander of the rev olutionary army or president Of the United States if he had not married the rich widow of MT Custis?''
 According to MT. Ford, it seems that he would, for he had achieved colonial military fame before his marriage. That the widow Custis was a desirable ''partie" is not to be denied however, as her part of the Custis property equalled "15.00O acres of land. a good part of it adjoining the city of Wash ington; several lot5 ia the said city, be- tween 200 and 309 negroes and about S,O0O or 10000 pounds upon bond" esti- mated at the time at about f20,O ,O00 in all. This property was further in- creased on the death of Patsy Custis. in 1773. by half fortune, which added f10,000 to the sum.-Richmond Dispatch.

The Result in California.

Next to the elections in the three territories, the people of Arizona have taken most interest in the California contest. It was expected that the cleo tion in that state would be close, largely on account of the factional strife which has weakened the republican party, and on account of the pronounced sup ocratic candidate for governor by some of the most influential corporations in California, and Lanes election was looked for by many conservative ob servers.
 It is now clear from the returns, however, that Dr. George c. Pardee, the republican candidate, has been elected governor. His ajorlty will closely approximate 5000. A notable feature of the election was the great majority given to Pardee by Los An geles county-more than 6,OOO Cover nor Gage having been defeated for renomination after a bitter contest, it was assumed by some that his great
  Angeles would not be exerted positively for Pardee, but the result leaves no room for questioning Cages loyalty to his party.
 Dr. Pardee is man of strong indi- viduality, and those who know him best predict that he will give California a great administration. The new governor proved his mettle as mayor of Oakland during the great railroad strike of few years ago. He did not hesitate to make it clear that his per sonal sympathies were with the work ingmen, but he was emphatic also in throwing his authority against lawless- ness and violence. It is current be- California to buy Pardee," and there is every reason to expect that he will give his state a most satisfactory ad- ministration.
 The California legislature is strongly republican, which assures the election of a republican to succeed United States Senator George c. Perkins.
 The only losses sustained by the re- publicans in California were in two congressional districts, but these losses are serious. Congressman Eugene Francis Loud, of the Fifth district, and Julius Kahn of the Fourth district were both defeated. Loud's district comprises portion of San Francisco 1 k a ic Nrrhp the city. Loud has served with dis tinctiOn in the Fifty-second, Fifty third, Fifty fourth, Fifty-sixth and Fifty-seventh congresses, and Kahn made good record in the Fifty-sixth and Fifty-seventh congresses. Both Loud and Kahn were defeated by labor agitators.

Morocco.

Renewed attention is called to Mo rocco and it's chemically troubled at- fairs by the going thither of a commis- sioner in behalf of the St. Louis fair.
 The mission is regarded as one of much peril as it doubtless is. It is strangely paradoXical that Morocco should be so important a country as to make it's representation a the fair desirable, and yet should be so rude and lawless land that diplomatic envoy can travel
 to it's capital to visit it's ruler only at grave peril to his life. ParadoXical also is it that an ancient land, lying within sight of Europe and fronting on
 one of the most frequented routes in the world, should be thus turbulent ant savage, a glaring anachronism amid the civilization of the twentieth cen
 tury.
 The fact is, Morocco presents the in- teresting spectacle of the Hast stand" of the remnants of a pulssant warrior race. The Moriscos are at bay. They are cut off, in territorial isolation, from all their kin. They inhabit by far the
 best of all the lands of Islam in Africa, but in it they are menaced and har- assed. Their country has been made
 the refuge of the outcasts of Europe. even of those too bad for Algiers, if such there can be. Their borders to the eastward have been menaced and harried, and also to the southward, while at the north and west is the sea. There is no retreat for them from the irresistibly advancing forces of an alien and distasteful civilization. Wherefore they make their Hast stand" In the storied region where Atlas filings his shadow far OCT the western foam"
 It is hard to tell what the nations should do about it. It would be well if the country could be brought into touch with civilization, as Egypt has been, and in a less degree, Algeria and Tu- his. But that seems almost impossible, so long as the land is in the hands of its own people. We think of the Sultan of Morocco as an absolute ruler. who can do as he pleases. He is not. At the present moment he is menaced with revolution, dethronment and death be- ca Use he has ventured to introduce few civilized arts. We might say the country and it's people should be left alone, to their own devices. But Eu- rope will not leave it and them alone And so we shall doubtless see one day bitter and costly struggle, ending in the subjugatiOn of the Moriscos and the Coniscation of their land-a repeti- ton of the time-old story of the con quest of the weak by the strong.-New York Tribune.

state officers by 1000 majority; elects congress, and the legislature which is to elect a successor to Senator Teller, the silver champion, is in doubt.
 The state of Utah passed under a re- publican landslide. State officers, con gressman and legislature are repub- lican, and a republican will be elected to the United States senate to succeed Rawlins, democrat. The intelligent Mormons in Utah voted for the repub lican candidates.
 Idaho, which has been a hot-bed of populism since 1S96 elects the entire re- publican state, congressional and legis- lative tickets, and a republican will succeed Henry Heitfeld. democrat, in publicans hope for the election of Sen ator Shoup, but in any case Idaho will send a good republican to the senate.
 Washington, which was torn from republican moorings by the silver un- dertow in 1896, returns to the reDubli- can ranks with a majority of approxi- mately 10000 for state officers. Demo- cratic representation of that state in congress is ended, and George Turner. fusion democrat, will be succeeded in the United States senate by a republi- can.
 New Mexico elects Rodey, republican. by 6,OOOO.
 Thus, in four western states-Kan- sas, Utah, Idaho, and Washington the democrats lose four United States senators, with an even chance that they will lose a fifth, their great bell wether, Teller.
 It was too much, perhaps, to expect that Nevada would return to the re- publican party this year, but the demo- cratic losses give assurance that demo- cratic supremacy in that state has numbered days.
 Possibly it is unfair to Arizona to couple her name with Nevada in re- viewing the election results; certainly, democrats have no reason to be proud of the victory" gained in this terri tory.
 And the democratic party inNthe na- tion will look sadly at the pitiful rem nant which has been saved from the empire which was dominated by the democratic hosts but four years ago.

According to the unofficial returns, Robert E. Morrison carried the coun- ties of Navajo, Apache, Coconino, Mo- have. Yavapai, Pinal, Pima, and Gila. Wilson carried Maricopa, Yuma, Santa Cruz, Graham and Cochise. Such an other democratic victory would make it necessary for that party to go into the hospital.
