Nearly completed Is the i'm mense plant of the Copper Queen com pany,, which is to have a capacity of 1,s00 tons per day. Manufacturing and industrial establishments are tax. ing their places with the growth of the town. The estimated established pay roll monthly in the city is considerably over s100.000 per month. There is un- questioned authority for the statement that at a very early date there will be erected a customs smelter, and that at no far distant day the standing pay roll of the dinner pair brigade will be s200,000 per month
 While not incorporated. the city is as rule most law-abiding While some would-be bad men have attempt ed to detraot from the good name of the place. Douglas is fast leaving be- hind her the name of frontier town.

 Only a short time ago the Copper
 Queen company decided to extend their railway line, then running into Bisbee. down to their additional prop critics at Nacozari. But few persons thought at that moment that where Douglas stands today would be other than little railroad junction point But, as in every instance where large places have grown from small towns, shrewd and far-seeing business men realized that at no far distant day the necessity for a distributing center To- cated close to the border would be one of the greatest of necessities. Among these were Charles Overlook. Don Luis Williams and some six oth- CTS associated with them, who took up townsfte on the west side of the present tracks of the railway con- pany. When the latter came to what is now Douglas. they found that they had to cross the property of the town site people, but the matter was al justed after conference between the parties interested, by an exchange of titles and stock in the present town site Of the city, which gave to the rail- way company the large and valuable holdings of land which are continually now being utilized extensively for yard room. round houses. repair and car shops. and to the Copper Queen

Outside the magic name of Bisbee, probably no other city in the territory of Arizona. or even in the entire southwest, is attracting the attention to it as is the city of Douglas In fact. all eyes are upon Douglas. When the new arrival steps from the plat form of the cars and looks about him, and witnesses the handsome brick and stone structures already occupied by active business men, and sees the small army of men engaged in the erection of new and imposing granite, brick and steel structures, when told that but a little over two years ago not a house of even the pretensions Of abbey" hut stood where is now a great and growing city, he would natur- ally look with some degree of doubt at his friend who stood in the relation Of A relator. Yet such is the fact.
 Broad streets, regularly laid of. with curbs and stone sidewalks; a city park fast assuming a beautiful appearance; a handsome public H. brary; the largest and best smelters in the country; a reduction works that will more than favorably compare with any in the states anywhere; the carshops and roundhouse of the best little railway of over 300 miles in length; a frst-class street railway in operation; an ice plant that is not equaled in the territory: an electric light plant that is just approaching completion all of these are some of the evidences of what has been done in the short space of about two years by the enterprise and indomitable will of a community of men banded to-

WAGES ARE DEMORALIZED.
Garment Makers Trade Ruined by
Foreigners Coming to This Country.
New York Press.

New York Press.
Henry White. general secretary Of the
United Garment Workers of America, says
on the immigration question::
In the trade of the garment maker more
than In any other branch Of skilled labor,
the immigrant question is forced upon the
american workmen. While IT would be alb.
surd for me to say that all the immigrant
workmen are a detriment to the trade and
an undesirable element in any American
community. l do insist that they threaten
to take much of the work in this trade
away from American workmen-
The immigrants with whom the work
men in this trade have TO compete are for
the most part Italians, Poles and Hebrews.
They will work for anything they can get,
whereas the American workman has to de-
mand certain wages In order to support his
family in a manner which is demanded Of
him in this country of decent homes. He
Will not permit his little children to work
as will the immigrants. He has finer feel
ings and a greater amount of self-respoct
than to ask his wife TO assist him in the
struggle for daily bread, while such is not
the case with the immigrant families. How
can the American workmen. therefore, sue
ceSSfully compete with such conditions!
An immigrant family in which every men,
Der is compelled to work for his living, can
earn at least as large wages in the aggre-
gate as one American workman who is
working for the support of his entire fam
lily, even though the immigrant family re-
ceiveS only a small fraction individually OF
the amount he receives.
Among the Italian families even the
smallest children, including the little girls.
are used to working from the moment they
are able to walk. In their native country
they are not restrained by any compul-
sorry education or child-labor laws, and they
do not obey them in this country. In the
garment trade ii is the women and children
of aliens with whom the American work.
men have to compete. The men seldom en-
gage in machine or hand sewing, but pre-
fer outdoor, street work; but in the cut
ters' trade there are many immigrant men
who also compete with them.
1T has been found by actual experience
| that ii is almost impossible TO get these
| immigrants to join the union. They know
| they will earn more In the aggregate by
bidding for the work at lower prices than
| our workmen can afford to, and they also
are prejudiced against the union, because
| they know they will have to surrender a
| little of their wages to pay dues. Know
| ing that they will never spend their money
| in this country, and wanting every cent Of
| their earnings to carry back to their ma
| tive lands, they refuse to give up even a
small sum. which in the end will benefit
| themselves well as the American work.

that some sailorman over on the Wild

Swans doctors for appendicitis We be-

always on the safe side. Nevertheless, en-
tirely reliable operation of signals does not
always stop a train in the presence Of dan
ger. for some of the worst collision wrecks
which have occurred in this country have
happened because the engineer either did
not see, or disregarded, a signal set against
him. A recent accident is still too fresh In
the minds of readers to make it necessary
to refer to specific instances Of this kind.
Laying aside all consideration Of cost of
equipment, and all question as to whether
the scheme of automatic control of trains
has yet been demonstrated to be practicable,
we are very sure that some system that
would take the control of the train out of
the engineers hands in passing a signal
set to danger would be a great boon to
humanity
The model of Mr.. Burdick's system con-
sists of circular section of track having
two complete engines, with tender; the
track is divided into block sections. just as
the track would be in regular practice. The
engines go around this circular track, one
following the other at a distance of one
block. The engine In the rear will not en-
ter the block ahead until the first engine
has left that block. 1t will not enter a
switch until the same is closed and locked.
An open drawbridge and broken rails are
also a part Of the model.
