~L.WHA1 result the presidents visit ~ to Arizona will have on the state hood case is not hard to determine. The greeting by the governor and the rough-riders, ex soldiers and officials, together with the few hun dred civilians, at the Grand Can yon, was in the nature of a military reception-a reception by a mili- tary governor of some province un- fit for statehood. While we were glad to have Teddy view the Can yon, we should also have been glad to have him see something of the real life oi the people of the terri
 tory; to have had him visit Pres colt, Phoenix, Tucson and other places of importance; to have had him forget for the time the battle fields of San Juan, the gallant deeds of the rough riders - which still dwell in the memory and tend to give the customer the idea that the population of Arizona is composed mainly of rough-riders and dare devils in general; to have him visit the fertile valleys of the southland and to see our civilization as it is. We are not ashamed of our rough riders, -punchers and the few bad men we still have, because most of them can don a dress suit and appear to advantage in any society. 1t is the mistaken meaning given these terms that create wrong impressions in the mind of the average easterner-our poor benighted brothers who have set themselves up to pass judgment upon a people who are in every re- speet their equals and probably their superiors. Had the itinerary been so planned that Mir. Roosevelt could have visited these places of prominence, the press dispatches and the special correspondence of the various papers throughout the country would have served admir- ably to advertise this great empire as it is and not as it is supposed to be. But it appears that those in charge were not desirous of having Arizona seen as she is.

AT the city election Tuesday in Phoenix there was a regular repub- lican landslide, the democrats elect ing only two men, city treasurer and one councilman. Walter Ben nett, brother-in-law of Dr. F. H. Waite of this city, was elected mayor by majority of 66 over his opponent, Gang. Mayor-elect Ben nett says he hopes to be able within the next few months to demonstrate that a better city government is possible, and those who know him believe he will bring about a change for the better.

How AbOnt Ordinance No. 81?

And now comes deponent with the in
tellgence that city ordinance No. 81 i'm
poses a penalty upon every person who
sells, or offers for sale, any goods, wares
or merchandise of any nature or descrip-
ton in the city of Edgerton without first
having procured license from said city.
Section l of ordinance No. 81 is as follows:
Section 1. No person or persons shall exer-
else or engage in the business OF Peddler,
Transient Merchant, Trader or Dealer in the
City of Edgerton, Wisconsin, or sell or offer
for sale any goods, wares or merchandise of
any nature or description Whatever in said
city, without first having procured a license
from said city as hereinafter provided.s
Four weeks have passed since the or
dinance went into effect and not sin
gle local dealer has complied with the
provisions thereof. Every merchant,
every dealer, every person who has sold
or offered for sale any goods or wares
during this period is liable to fine Of
not more than twenty-five dollars nor
less than one dollar, together with costs
Of suit. The sum to be paid for the
license as required by Section of the
ordinance is ten dollars per day or any
part thereof. The man who sells or Of
iers for sale a bushel of potatoes il he g
law abiding, must first procure license.
That costs him ten dollars. The pota
toes at ruling market price brings him
sixty cents, loss by the transaction of
nine dollars and forty cents. How about
the merchant? Can he, in addition to
all other expenses, afford to pay the city
of Edgerton ten dollars per day as license
fee for doing business? In round figures
he would pay yearly into the city treasury
$3.50. At this rate the city's accumu-
lated income from licensed dealers would
be sufficient in short time to pave
every street with gold. The ordinance
referred to was drafted by City Attorney
81. S. Sloan and the common council
passed it September 1st, 1903 Depo-
nent further saith that the repeating OF
this ordinance should be part of the
order of business at the next regular
meeting OF the common council.
