Colonization of the Wards.

The leaders of the Young Mems
Democratic club have populated the
First ward with a vigor which suggests
desperation The COLOMBIA ton which
has been going on there is the most
outrageous in the history CT the meth
DDS of the club. 1t could hardly have
been expected by the most sanguine Of
the leaders that half of the colonists
would be allowed to vote, but they rea-
soned that every one who is permitted
the place of one of the scores of demo-
Gratis who are going to vote for the re-
publican candidate, Mr.. Dennis.
In an adobe house on an alley be-
between First and Second, there are
twenty cots for the use of the temper
airy residents. Every other available
place is occupied and the more enthu-
veniencing themselves by quartering
at their houses voters of 4 class they
would be ashamed to recognize on the
street in any other than the election
season.
A list has been made up by republi-
can workers of all the colonists. 1t has
been ascertained that more than u
dozen of them are Mexican sheep
herders who are not residents of the
city, but live in the northern part of
the territory. 1t has also been learned
that some of them are not citizens OF
the United States. and it is determined
them will become residents of Yuma.
The territory will be as liberal toward
them as the Young Mems Democratic
club is just now, and will furnish then.
not only lodgings but also food with
out price.
The colonization is not confined to
the First ward. A good deal of it has
been done in the Third. but the OPP
is limited. The methods being en-
ployed are calling out the condemna-
tion of democrats and republicans
ciike
The purpose of the republican mana =
gers to prosecute those who are Illegal
ly registered and who shall attempt to
vote has already had healthy effect.
One man has left the city and another
who said that he believed on the repre-
sentation of the registering officer that
he had right to be registered has had
his name taken from the list

own. the constitutional term of the
chief executive is four years. Next
September will bring General Diaz'

TIE heads of the liberal party have
thought this spring an opportune time
for issuing an address TO the rank and
file. The burden OF it is that represen-

in order to make them such the quail

very large percentage of them habitu-

Sign Today.

The necessity of Fastening the work
this valley to the articles of incorpora-
ton of the Water Users association is
made more apparent than ever by
letter received yesterday by President
B. A. Fowler from Engineer Arthur P
Davis. MIR. Davis says that he was
making preliminary arrangements for
the securing of machinery that will be
needed in the early work of construc-
the cement works, the power house.
early excavation, etc, when he
heard from Director Walcott in
structing him to take no decisive ac-
ton till sufficient acreage was repre-
sented to guarantee to the government
a return of its money. 1t is the desire
of the survey to begin operations i'll
September, and to do so it is none too
early to order such machinery as viii
be needed and is not now on hand. If
sufficient acreage were signed today
this work could proceed tomorrow.
Every days delay in signing now is
delay of actual construction work, just
as much as though it were delay for
lack of money. In another column is
printed a call for j meeting of land
owners under the Maricopa canal to be
held at the association rooms Saturday
afternoon. Every landowner should be
present and lend his influence and his
signature in the right direction. If
this delay should be long continued it
will necessitate postponing the begin
ming OF construction till another sea
son rolls round. A few farmers are
signing up every day, an average of
perhaps 1000 acres. but they should be
coming in ten times as fast. The sun
is shining and NOW is the time to MAKE
hay.

CURRENT COMMENT


CHILDREN OF THE NEW-RICH.
The United States commissioner OF
education in his speech before the IN
ternatGnal kindergarten union in Pitts
burg. did not exaggerate the facts
when he said that IAN important work
FOR the kindergarten is to prepare the
rrec0cious children which are born into
families of the newly rich for a life
helpful to civilization,' or in coupling
them with the children OF the very
poor as a social problem for educators
The making Of money is normally an
intellectual operation. 1t sharpens the
wits. develops keenness Unfortunate
" breadth does not always develop in
due proportion. Having made his

emplar of what not to do.
Even where the father avoids this

in his habits of study. and altogether
an unmanageable pupil in school, This

American society is at it's worst at
its well-advertised financial apex 1t is
not so in Great Britain or in Germany.
The young European born t. great
wealth is born also to great RESPONSE
bilities, and from his earliest years is
trained to them. The almost six hun

lords include a great majority of men
of mediocre minds but perfectly re-
spectacle morals, and very few ire

steel and oil and copper-in the specu-
lative group which has no hereditary

Francisco and Pittsburg.
How to find useful employment for
idle millonaires and to teach them that
there is more happiness in work than

more than a kindergarten undertaking.

The Canadian Tariff.

Those who read the speech of tho
Canadian minister of finance on the
budget for the coming fiscal year viii
find almost every paragraph of it with
d turn bearing on our trade. But the
parts of it that particularly attract
consideration here are but three in
number. and these features of the Lau-
rier government plans include but 4
single proposal possessing anything
but an indirect aspect for United States
commerce. OF the other two, the first
is not a declaration of purpose, but is
manifestation of spirit. If in some
quarters it cannot be agreeable read
ing it can be urged on Canada's behalf
that what was meant was not coldlv
arranged in sentences, but was put III
the air.
England's grain duties have been OPP
pressive TO Canada, for the Dominion
wishes to sell its products as freely as
possible and the duties have kept its
farmers in competition with United
States and Russian wheatgrowers.
Canadians thought that the Hicks
Beach budget tax on the grain should
not be imposed on men who aided in
fighting the Beers. and they also make
the point that their preferential tariff
rates on British goods should have won
the Dominion reciprocal treatment
when England laid a duty. The pro-
posal to abolish the grain duties indi-
Gates that England is ready to meet
Canadian wishes on this point. The
Laurier government has said in SO
many words that it will act against
British products if its plea for the free
needed. The second feature of the pro-
gramn1e at Ottawa is the levy of sur
tax on German products. This is Il
duty Of 10 per cent, making the tariff
cent. It is said that Germany has been
urged 10 consider Canadian products
favorably. but that it has not done so,
and that this surtax is the result of
its surly mood in official intercourse.
Germany hereafter will pay the same
rate on exports to Canada that the
United States pays.
The third feature OF the proposals is
that certain products shall be laid
under new restrictions. Manila hemp
is to be admitted at such duty as shall
cqualize the benefits received by the
United States manufacturer. Steel rails
are to be taxed higher as soon as the
Canadian mills turn out Il domestic
supply of adequate proportions, and as
cur exports OF rails to the Dominion
have rapidly fallen during the last
three years the proba bilitic5 are that
the duty will soon be authorized Du
ties on imports of cotton, wo"len anil
silk goods are to be raised rs conditions
warrant. The remarkable thing about
these three features OF the Canadian
governments plans is that while they
are cordially supported by all the lib
erals. the conservatives object to them
only because they do not go far enough.
The latter demand that United states
trade he greatly injured in the name Of
protection. The governments answer
is that except by general regulations
it does not care to interfere with our
shipments. The fact appears 10 he that
Conada's revenue Is now materially
augmented by our exports. The Do
minion. whether under liberal or con
sentative rule. is devoted to furtAering
it's own interests.

BoYCOTTING TWO NATIONS.

BOYCOTTING TWO NATIONS.
The reports of boycotts for England
and Germany in some of the Central
and South American countries, which
are coming from those localities are
what was expected, but there is no
reason to believe that the interdict will
reach serious proportions. Tho ban, Of
course, is due to- the action of those ma
tons in the Venezuelan affair. This
very thing was predicted by some Of
the German business men in The lead
South American cities at the time.
Protestations on this line were made to
Berlin from Germans in Caracas, Bue-
nos Ayres, Lima, Valparaiso and other
South American centers, but probably
they were net needed.
Let not exporters from the United
States suppose that this episode is go
ing TO help us materially in the coun-
tries to the south of US. Most of the
Latin-American nations are notorious
ingrates. They have had a jealousy
and distrust for the United States all
along. Notwithstanding our faVors for

ropean countries. Expressions from

that this distrUst for us in Peru, Chill,
Venezuela and other parts of South
America may have been fcmented by
European intrigue. There can be no
doubt, however, that this feeling has
existed.
Therefore. let nobody in the United
States suppose that Germany and Eng
land are going to be forced out of the
trade with South America on account
Of the Venezuelan scrape. and that we
are to make great commercial con-
quests there for this reason. We will
meet the same sort of rivalry in the
markets Of the Latin American coun-
tries that we have met before, all

HOW TO EAT ORANGES.


\ symposium is being conducted for
the benefit of its readers by the New
York Evening Post. Il journal Of rare
dignity and politeness. upon the i'm
portant topic of How to Eat Oranges"
The wide interest which such a pro
found domestic study would arouse is
at once evident to everyone Who has
attempted to devour the delicious ana
fragrant fruit under discussion. There
are as many recipes for getting the best
of 2n orange as there are fo; downing

young lady possesses a comprehensive
character which will appeal to many.
She suggests locking oneself in 4
room. Another expert. writing in the
solemn vein which such Il discussion
demands. announces that he has a hab-
it of conceaIing the fruit by going at it
in much the same way Il boy attacks

the seeds are left. These can be dis

safed no reply.
Mr.. DOdswOrt.i is very conserva-
tive man. He is a large property own
er in GOldfield and is regarded as
among the best citizens OF Teller
county.
The only offense he can possibly
have committed is tlat he was recent
ly elected president of Victor miners
union No. 80.
All of these invasions of sacred per-
sonal rights were made with the
threatening swagger common to the
bearing of the military in dealing with
the citizens Of the district.
Cripple Creek has been as quiet and
orderly as any city in Colorado since
the moment Of the strike. For the
two weeks following the strike and pe-
fore the guards were sent there was
as little disturbance in that camp as
in any place of it's size in the eoun-
try. Not dollars worth of property
had been injured nor had any threats
to injure property been made. Yet a
few mine owners who had determined
to DESTROY unionized labor in Cripple
Creek induced the governor to place
the entire military forces of the state
at their command for the purpose.
In what country do we live? Surely
not in the United States. and yet the
governments of Russia or Germany or
Austria or Trrkev would break the
swords and strip the epaulets from the
shoulders of the officers who would
dare to commit such outrages upon
