about as much of Arizona as traveller would see of the state Of New York should he journey through Canada and stop at Niagara Falls. The idea O. Arizona which MT. Roosevelt must carry away with him will. therefore, be just about the idea he had bero~e starting west. Pictures have already Grand Canyon. and he has heretofore met the Rough Riders who will greet him tomorrow.
 It is unfortunate. indeed, that the president cannot see the real Arizona the multitude of good Americans who are building great state in the south western corner of the union; above all. the Salt River valley, and Phoenix. The itinerary has been so arranged that he will spend days looking at un- interesting things in California, al- though he is forced to hurry through the vast empire called Arizona, and re- main largely in ignorance of this won derful country and its remarkable peO- pie.
 However, Mir. Roosevelt will receive such welcome from the people he will meet at Williams and the Grand Can yon. as will leave him in no doubt as to the esteem in which he is held in Arizona, and no doubt he will regret as keenly as anybody that circum- stances make 1t impossible for him to make even the side trip of two hours which would take him to the great city of Prescott. For at Prescott he would see a bit of the real Arizona, and he would get some intimation of the way Arizonians like to receive their presi- dent.
 Had the resident been able to visit some parts of central Arizona he would have been made strong convert to the cause Of statehood, We do not doubt. Moreover, he would have met a well come which for heartiness and sin cerity the whole country could not sur pass. The people of Arizona have not only the highest respect for the office of president. but they have a strong admiration for MT. Roosevelt person ally.

Comfort for the Antis.

The report made by General Miles in respect to his recent visit to the Philip pine Islands seems to give the antis renewed pleasure. They are especially delighted to be told that early in the campaign in the Philippine Islands there were certain acts of cruelty prac- ticed by the American soldiers there. although some of these statements re- specting wrOng-doing are based on "it Is said" foundation.
 The government at Washington did right in making public the report of General Miles. yet that report proves nothing new and does not enlighten the country to any extent. It is a matter of record that many soldiers guilty of harsh treatment as applied to the Fili- pinos have been punished properly. and some of them were dismissed from the service.
 Notwithstanding the statements made ernment remains what it was on the day that Dewey sank. the Spanish fleet, and emphasized three months or more later when the arrival of American sol diers made it possible for the United States to demand the surrender of Manila and to then and there assume its duty as the guardian of all the peo- pie there.
 Not for one moment has the United States forgotten its solemn obligations in the matter of preserving the peace in the Philippines. That there have been acts of cruelty upon the part of certain men In the uniform of this country is not disputed, and the same thing was recorded even during the civil war in the United States. War is always cruel, and excesses are tho natural result of familiarity with bloodletting in any guise. Notwith- standing the report made by General Miles the United States is performing its duty in the Philippine Islands, ana there is nothing yet related to indicate that material progress has not been made.
 This country has accomplished won ders in the Philippines. when the qual- ity of the population there Is consid cred and when it is remembered that 1t Is our first experience in this sort of business. The time has never been reached when the United States could let go of the Philippines with honor when it could "scuttle'' and retain its self-respect. Nothing is to be accom- plished by the report made by General Miles, who has mot been in accord with the head of the government since 1898. The antis who are now delighted with report of cruelty, largely the result of their traitOrous support of the de- luded and fanatical natives of the Philippines, are welcome to whatever measure of comfort they can find in the revival of stories that have been told and retold. and of offending which have been punished long ago.

The British Peace Budget.

The English chancellor, MT. Ritchie, in presenting last week the first peace budget in four years. began with the remark that whereas his predecessors had been compelled to increase tax bur dens, it was his privilege to reduce optimistic mood would have required that it was not his privilege to reduce them as much as his predecessors had increased them. The South African war. together with the short campaign in China, he reported, had cost nearly eleven hundred million dollars, of which less than a third had been paid out of current revenues. and less than fifth could be recovered from the Transvaal and China. A full half of this vast sum. therefore, or s55O, ,OOO, 900. was added to the permanent debt of the country.
 The interest upon this new debt, how ever, forms the smaller part of the in- crease in the nations expenditures. The increased army estimates MT. Ritchie regarded with great concern. and hoped soon to effect reductions in this field, but the increase in the naval estimates he regarded as inevitable and unalterable unless Great Britain's neighbors called a halt in their arma- ments. If this were done. however. he added, Great Britain is fully ready to follow suit" The chancellor stated that there were indications of a move ment for lessened armaments, but, un- foltuneately, Italy is the only conti- mental country where this movement is strong outside of the ranks of the socialists.
 The net result of the increased ex- penditures is that the peace budget this year calls for appropriations aggregat- ing $719, 100000 as against $515, 900, 900 six years ago. Heavy as the war taxes had become. it was only possible for the chancellor to propose a reduction of $50, ,000. 900 a year because of the return of peace. Forty millions of this sum the ministry would grant to the in- come tax payers. reducing their tax from six per cent to four and a half and the remainder would be granted to the whole body of consumers by re- pealing the new tax on imported grain.
 Sir William Harcourt, the last liberal chancellor, spoke for his party in con- demning the ministry for relieving the well-to-do classes more than the wage earners. In MT. Gladstone's time it be- came the custom to divide reductions fin taxation, so that indirect taxes bur dening the poor should be as much re- duced as direct taxes burdening the property owners. By the new budget the latter class get four times as much relief as the former.
 But the liberal protest against this feature of the budget did not compare in warmth with the rejoicing over the repeal of the tax on grain, which year ago seemed to threaten return to the old system of taxing the bread of the wage-earners to "protect" the rents of the landlords.

The People ys. the Ring.

Today will decide whether organized boodling is to continue in Phoenix
 Citizens will decide today whether they are to be plucked two years mora by the bosses who have achieved power through the Young Mems Democratic club.
 This Is the one day In the calendar of three hundred and sixty-five which gives the producer of taxes a chance to protect himself. Any man who fails to take advantage of the opportunity should not be heard hereafter to com plain of high taxes, mismanagement of public affairs, and the diversion of public funds into the pockets of the democratic ring.
 The issue is clearly drawn. It is not between the republican party and the de nocratic party. It is between the forces of good government and the forces of corruption and ring rule. The republican ticket is made up of cod, clean men. good republicans. T3ut they are also men who stand for reform in city affairs. The democratic ticket is made up of men whose nomi man on the democratic ticket will, if elected, be tool of the boodlers who are in control of the ring-the bosses of the Young Mems Democratic club.
 No fair-minded citizen can say here after that he did not understand the situation. Every voter Of average in telligence recognizes this morning that the contest is between government for the people and government for the bosses.
 Every property owner pays the pen alty, year after year, for permitting this city to be run by a gang of bood- lers. He pays the penalty in extor- tionately high taxes. He helps to pay the penalty in seeing Phoenix discred- ited in the eyes of every visitor and possible investor. And all for what ? That Phoenix may be governed for the personal benefit of the bosses in con- trol of the Young Mems Democrats club.
 This club is democratic only in name The leaders of the ring care nothing for party or party principles. Democ- racy means nothing to them, unless it |, stands for poodle. They have suc- ceeded thus far merely because they have played with ordinary shrewdness very old game-the ancient game of inducing large number of loyal party followers to join an organization which is ostensibly in existence for the bene- fit of the party, but in truth an organ ization manipulated and traded as the interests of the bosses have demanded |
 Time and again, to serve the pur- poses of these bosses, the club has been employed against the democratic party | itself.
 It is not surprising that good demo- | crats by the score are in revolt
 Were the result to be left to the bal | lots of self respecting citizens. the de- feat of the Young Mems Democratic | club today would be so crushing as to l leave no life in the ring. But it must | be remembered that every hobo, every purchasabIe voter. every crook, will be | lined up for the ticket headed by Emil Gang, and every vote from this class offsets the vote of a decent citizen.
 Never in the history of Phoenix was it so clearly the duty of all good citi- zens. regardless of party. to vote the republican ticket.
