\ COMPANY has been formed in San
Francisco for the purpose of develop
ing the island OF Mindano. the largest
island in size OF the Philippine group.
1t is stated that the Incorporation is
merely preliminary to the formation OF
:; company of millionaires with a cap
ital of so, 000,000 The principal OBJ
jects of the concern will be to colonize
the island of Mindano, build trading
posts, acquire lands for agricultural
and mining purposes, build railroads,
erect sugar mills and other manufac-
tories, construct waterworkS, and last
ly, To inaugurate steamship line be-
tween San Francisco and the islands.
The island is rich in gold, but only
partially explored, and will probably
prove new FL Dorado for the Ameri
can prospector. With the stimulus of
the new company Mindano will receive
a genuine American boom, such as the
far east has never known.

DANIELS, who has twice confirmed
by the L. ;. senate as marshal OF Ari-
IONA, and finally turned down, has had
a hard run of luck. There seems TO be
no reasonable doubt that he served a
term in the Laramie peniten tiary for
theft OF government property. but this
was in the early sos, when he was
young man, and from the time OF his
pardon ne is supposed to have lived
square" life. As an officer OF the law
he was highly respected. When a
difficult piece OF work was TO be done,
requiring GOODNESS and courage, Daniels
was sent for, and always acquitted
himself with credit. When the war
came on with Spain be was among the
first TO volunteer, and led the charge
at San Juan Hill. When not acting
as a peace officer, he dealt faro for
living, but his patrons all affirm that
he gave them a square deal" which
is certainly to his credit. In the wild
and fuzzy west man who is square"
is usually considered honest, 90 matter
what his occupation may be. and as
class the old time professional gamblers
were scrupulously honest, not only in
their business but in their every day
life. Many of our best citizens, and
even ministers have been reformed"
drunkard5 and criminals, and the fact
that they had reformed was considered
to their credit, but with Daniels it is
different. There is no question but
that Daniels would have made an ex-
cellent officer, but the opportunity has
been denied him.

This week petition was circulated
in Kingman, and signed by practically
all tho taxpayers in the town. praying
congress to enact no law exempting
the Santa Fee Pacific railroad from tax
alton. There is no railroad IN the
United States doing better paying
business than the Santa Fe and it
ought by right to he paying its just
proportion of tax for the support OF the
local territorial and county govern
ments. Therefore, if the recent re-
organization act failed to protect them
in the matter of tax exemption con-
gress ought to let it stand. that the
