music by the choir, followed by a
forceful address, touching the lead
ing points of American history by
Rev. DIR. Hoppe. DR.. Hoppe very
ably sustained his reputation as an
eloquent popular speaker.
The event which attracted as much
or perhaps more attention than any
thing else, the characteristic mining
camp diversion, were the double rock
drilling contests In the afternoon.
The s4OO cash prize was captured by
Johns and Waters, of Bourne.
They drilled 40 2-l6 inches In the
allotted fifteen minutes. Dunn and
Ray, the old favorites, Of the Mid

Not a question is asked them what they intend to do with their money, how they intend to spend it. or where, not an intimation to them of a reduction in wages.

The rr- equivocal denial, over the signature of MT. Merrill in yesterdays Review. and the interview with Mir Walter Douglas in this issue, should be enough to satisfy all that this is one of the best mining camps in all the United States, and the man who can not be contented here will find no rest ing place anywhere else We assure them. Bisbee has been singalarly contented as a place of employment, and there is no cloud upon her hori- zon at this time that would disturb the happy relations existing between employer and employe.

Senator C|ark's Daughter
Son Lives in Chicago.

In the complaint Mrs. Vlasto says Mrs. Culver. "willfully intending to injure the plaintiff. enticed her hus- band to live separate and apart from her" She mentions Paris and Switzerland, besides New York and ether cities in America, as places where she has resided recently. Mrs. Vlasto says she was married Novem- Der 20. 1875. and that the issue of the marriafge is son, Constantine. now 27 years old, who lives in Chicago.
 To a reporter Mrs. VlastO said she separated from her husband in 1901 after her return from an European trip. and since then has had only a meager subsistence and has lived in an humble way, refusing his overtures of peace. although he contributed to her support. His friendship with the Culver family, she declared. brought about her separatio from Mir Vlasto. who, she maintained, was not of noble birth, as had been as- serted.
 Since coming to this country about thirty years ago, Mr. Vlasto has had a varied career. His troubles have rested lightly On him and today at 55 years of age he is of distinguished bearing and a bon vivant of unruf- fed geniality.

TREMENDOUS CRITICISM.

Much is somtimes said in terms of glittering generalities condemning fraudulent mining promotions and stock jobbing schemes merely because it is believed to strike a popular hord. But such pretentious talk nef- ther helps nor hurts. It is like the assumption of holiness by making general attack on the devil. It serves to make holy show but does not in telrupt the devil. The only criticism that counts and the only preaching that tells is that which is specific and direct Were a man to file a lawsuit against a community or a political party. alleging general wickedness, he would obtain no standing in court; but a suit against individuals, charg- ing particular violations of law, would lat least be given a hearing. When criticism deals with exact facts and is applied directly with justice and truth it becomes worthy of support But the indiscriminate denunciation of promoters, for instance, does inju- ny to the honest promoter and is re- garded with indifference by the con scienceless schemers.-Mining Re porter

THAT BROKEN TREATY WITH COLOMBIA.

In discussing our adventure down in Panama, Professor Goldwin Smith de- clares that our affairs and the honor of the Republic might well be in bet ter hands than those of Theodore Roosevelt. The broken treaty is evi. dence of that; and the sophistical apologies for breaking it is further ev ldence. The more there is seen of President Roosevelts administration of national affairs. there is also the oehef that the peace and safety of the country might much better be in other hands.
 What evidence, it might properly be asked, did the president have of what was the prevailing opinion of the peo- pie of the United States regarding the revolution" in Colombia? The more the matter crops out, the more evident 1t becomes that the whole thing was the work of a dozen or so of specula- tors and promoters, aiming to secure good part of the ten millions which were to be paid, and perhaps a good ly sized commission from the Panama Canal company. Roosevelt at once entered into negotiations with these people, and inside of a week recog- nized them as an independent nation. Napoleon III once did something of the same kind in Mexico. but he did it openly with arms and as an impe- rial undertaking. and for which that continental robber was widely known.
 It becomes more and more apparent that the president knew entirely too much about this whole affair before he took the swift action that he did. If the reverse is true, and he knew but very little about them at all. then ne certainly did not know enough to take such hasty steps in so moment ous an event, as to justify recognition within week.
 No matter how the affair is looked -at, there is no possible theory that can be put forward, no state of facts that can be stated, that can possibly justify the actions of President Roose- welt and shelter him from the condem- nation due him for haste, minimizing, unwarranted and unsafe action. He has demonstrated that he is not the right man at the helm of the nation for its conservative, safe and lasting policy, which has dominated it's exist ence in all the past. Any possible chances for succeeding himself as the nominee next year are dissipated clearly now.

In Fit Company.

Handcuffed to a nigger (the better of the two, by the way), that useless hulk of humanity who travels under the sobriQuet of Sailor Brown, went to the county jail in Tombstone ye5ter- day. How that debased and detestl- ble offscouring of the earth gained the title of Sailor is known only to the bearer of the title. The nearest ap- proach probably he ever came to the sea, was looking down the hurricane deck of schooner of beer. provid- ed by some person who did not know the thug being invited to drink it. Chained to a negro was a fitting pic ture and place for Brown. A week ago he was sleeping in "Nigger" Stevens bed, and bad and all as Stevens may be, he has cause to blush and sink his head in shame at being coupled to a vermin of the ilk of Sailor" Brown. It was only by the naTrowest scratch that he was not sent over the road for the most unmentionable crime in the calendar. As it was, he is in the tolls for threatening the life of Alexander Roberts, manager of the Bisbee Bot ting works at Don Luis, and before he had scarcely gotten through with his first hearing, he threatened to fix" a representative of the Review. The Review apologies to Stevens, the "nigger," for mentioning Browns name with his.

The Review has made a careful in- vestigation of the idle rumor which has gained some currency that there IS to be a reduction of wages in the Calumet and Arizona works. The Re view is also pleased to state that there is not single grain of truth in the rumor. These rumors gained no credence until it was reported that MT. Parnall was to succeed to the superintendency of the Calumet and Arizona properties. These Tumo:s are very unfair to Mir Parnall. The Review is in a position to state posi- lively that such a proposition vas never even the subject of consiuera- tion by any person connected with the Calumet and Arizona companies. It has it from MT. Merrill, the present sI- perintendent. from the directors of the company, and from MT. Parna:l himself that such a thing was never considered, nor was it even the sub. iect of anticipation.

The formal opening of the Territo- rial Reform School will take place Monday evening For the purpose for which the building was erected that at Benson is credit to the ter. ritory and to the uses to which it will be devoted The new superintend- ent. r. R. O'Brien, seems specially well fitted for the position to which he has been called. Courteous 70 a degree, with the necessary military training to carry out and enforce discipline, and with a good judgment of human nature. the Territorial Industrial School of Arizona should be one of the most successful of the kind in the country. By the way, in almost the first line of this article an error $ made which it is to be hoped that all with ourselves will endeavor 10 over come, and that is the use of the word reform" in connection with tne school. While it is a place of con- finement in a sense for the unruly, it should also be used as a place in which will be taught the rudiments of true manhood, and that the object Of the school is solely to fit those who may go there, for the true and manly walks in life. and to prepare them the better way to meet the battles of life straightforwardly. Let us aiop-, therefore, the use rather of tho word "Industrial," a word that will not jar constantly upon the young mindo who may be sent there. Kindness will win many battle where force would accomplish nothing.

with what is known as THE Pious
Fund Of the CALIFORNIA; and the case
has its inception in the early history
Of California, when the State was a
part of the Mexican republic. The COM
plant consists of more than fifty type
written pages, and is practically a
history of the Roman Catholic church
in California.
1t is alleged by the plaintiffs that
prior TO April %. 1880, the Roman Cath
olic church of Upper and Lower Cali
fornia owned property amounting to
more than s1.Oo0,0O0 within the republic
Of Mexico belonging TO what was
known as the "Funda Piodoso de Las
CALIFORNIA;" or the "Pious Fund Of
the CALIFORNIA; This fund was in
trusted TO the sole care and manage
ment of the Roman Catholic church
for the purpose of converting the In
dians and for the propagation of the
Catholic religion. Notwithstanding
this fact the fund was seized about
August, 1888. by the Mexican Govern
mert without the consent of the mis-
sionary fathers, and down to the year
1880 was retained by it under the laws
Of Mexico. In 1S40 the diocese of the

In February Of the same year Jose
Antonio Aguirre. the progenitor of the
defendants, is declared to have adj
vanced to the church, in connection
with the fund, the sum of $4,000, and
the fund was charged with this debt.
