RELATED,
NOT PREMATURE.

Mir RusseI, Sage. in opposing anti trust legislation, says that the moment has not arrived for inteiigens remedial action. He compares the situation with that of a sick man. whose case cannot at once be diagnosed by the doctors. They must await develop aeEts before prescribing.
 To the ordinary observe it woule seem that the trust evll has reached a point where not only is a diagnosis easy. but where the application of a remedy is imperatively necessary if she disease is to be fought at all. For what does Mir. Sage wish us to wait? For the utter collapse of shs patient. which. in this instance, is the Ameri- can public? Surely theie is no neei of further proof of the maiign opera ton of the more evil combines.

DEMOChAi fC FOSoiRiLlbtES
 The leaders of the democratic party in Washington are beginning to ex- hibdt some interest in the different booms for the presidential nomination on the democratic ticket that are be. ing turned loose in several sections of the country. There is the Olney boom which was started in Memphis, Tenn. and is being nursed to keep it warm by the Hon. Josiah Quincy of Bos ton. MT Olney was in the last Cleve land cabinet. He was attorney gen eral and then secretary of state He is an able man, as every one will ad init, but he is about seventy years old He has always kept his democracy on straight, but he did not tear his clothes for the ticket in '96.
 There is the Parker boom. Judge Parker is chief judge of the New York state court of appeals. and undoubted Iy is a good man and good demo crat. but his only claim to recognition is the fact that he was elected to his

HOMES FOR THE PEOPLE


 In a recent interview on the ques- tion of government subsidies, James ]. Hin. president of the Great North ern Railway company. is quoted as fol lows by the Washington correspond ent of the Chicago Record Herald:
 50 far as am personally concern ed would put the money into irri- sating ditches and reservoirs in order to furnish homes for the coming gen erations that are beginning to crowd each other already. There are some figures running in my mind. At the time the civil war closed we had pop ulation of S4,0O0 900, and have been increasing at the rate of 1,6O0,0O0 eY- cry year since. At that rate the gain in twenty-two years will equal the en- tire population in 1865. The census reports since 1790 show that We. dou- ble our population every thirty years.
 "At the close of the civil war all the land in northern Wisconsin, western Iowa. western Minnesota and west of the Mississippi river to the Pacific ocean was practically vacant Today. speaking generally, there is no arabic land to be had anywhere upon the public domain. There is not an acre of public land where man. can raise a crop of potatoes or grain without IT, rigation. If that change has taken place within the last thirty-seven years. what shall we expect in the next thirty-seven years? Where are the people to live who come to us from foreten countries at the rate of half million year, and what are We go- ing to do with the natural increase of Our own people? q.

They were good farmers. industrious. intelligent and well to do, and had the capital to buy outright from 1000 to 2.OOO acres of land from the Domin- ion government, and have taken the Oath of allegiance to King Edward We could have kep0 them on our own side of the border if we could have given them irrigated lands.

Delegate Wilson, who has been lowering around the outskirts of the democratic legislature, keeping a sharp eye out as. to the carrying out of platform blanks. was noticed on the streets of Prescott yesterday. When talked to by a Courier reporter, Colo nel expressed the firm belief that the legislature would carry out it's plat form pledges to the letter-Courier. !" Sheriff Murphy said yesterday in a conversation that he believed that the bill introduced in the assembly by Mn Bernard, of Pima county, providing that all executions take place at the territorial. prison, should be passed. The sheriff says that it is far better to have this work done by an expert fn the penitentiary, as it is done in most of the states.-Arizona Star.
 
 The legislature has named a new county in, this territory in honor of President Roosevelt. The. compliment is not deserved by MT Roosevelt. He used New Mexico and Arizona as step- ping stones to reach the Presidency and then spurned his humble friends and refused to make good his public pledges regarding the admission of these territories to statehood. In this respect MT. Roosevelt is not different to the ward politicians of all the states and territories. His promises are sub- lect to revision and he has turned upon the people who followed him from Santa Fe to San Juan hill But for the opposition of President Roosevelt New Mexico and Arizona would now be states of the American union. When the bills creating Quay and Roosevelt counties passed the territorial council yesterday, resolution was passed no- ufying Senator Quay that a county was named in his honor because of his faithful and untiring work for the territory. 4 similar resolution could not be passed for President Roosevelt, because it was well known Shat he had done nothing to keln mass the statehood bill.-Albuquerqus citI. zen (Rep)

A Little Too Clever.

Sir Charles Napier was at one time
governor of Gibraltar. One day by
some mischance he mislaid the keys Of
his safe. Search being unavailing, he
sent down to the engineers yard to
know II they had man capable Of
picking lock.
A certain sapper, whose skill at lock
picking was well known, was sent T.
the governors house, and. with the aid
of few pieces Of wire, he very shortly
succeeded in opening the safe. Napier
was amazed at his celebrity. but said
nothing.
Next morning the sapper was sent
for by his colonel, who handed him a
five pound note and informed him that,
by Napier's order, he was to return to
England, for home service, by the next
boat. as the governor did not think It
safe to keep man on the rock who
could pick the most complicated lock
rs easily as he could eat his breakfast.
