ous responsibilities accepted with its continuance of control in the affairs of government was that of fulfilling this promise.
 But the people of the territories concerned, and of the union at large, are now being taught that this prom ise in the republican national plat form was made to be broken. Repub- lican leaders have never intended to favor such bill as is now before the congress and which is based on con fidence in republican honesty of ex- pression made in a party platform. From the partisan point of view it would be disadvantageous to repub- icanism if the omnibus statehood bill were passed. Because of this fact Mark Hanna has forbidden its passage and such republican leaders as Sen atOrs Lodge, Spooner, Hale and Al drich are fighting it with all the re sourcefulness at their command.

 So much for republican conscience and republican regard for platform pledges. The party of hypocrisy re- Veals itself in it's true character in this Illuminating instance. It occu- pies high moral ground only when making grand stand plays in it's nal tional and state, conventions. Just the moment it's partisan advantage is en- dangered il gets right down into the muck and plays politics regardless of any and all ethical obligations.

CONSCIENCE AND BROKEN PLEDGES

Although the republican party has always boasted of it's conscientious ness and infexible performance of it's campaign promises, the cold political fact remains that neither it's con- science nor it's pledged word is per mitted to stand between that organiza- tion and its partisan advantage.
 The American public is now wit messing an illustration of this truth in the determined republican opposi- tion, to the omnibus statehood bill. The majority party in congress is solemnly bound in honor to pass this measure. It has given a distinct and unequiyocal platform promise of state hood to the territories named iD the biD. It appealed for votes on this definite pledge. One of the most seri-

THE TUCSON coRoNERs

When the Southern Pacific passen- ger trains were wrecked and burned two weeks ago near Vails station, before the shrieks of the dying had ceased to echo through the canyons and hillse of the Pantano mountain range, the two justices of the peace of Tucson were in disgraceful TOW over the question of who should hold the inquest and receive the accompany ing fees. That row has not been set tied yet. Both justices summoned and irnpanelled a jury to make investiga- ton of the causes which led to the wreck, place the blame and name the dead. So hungry were these officers for fees and so determined to shut each other out, that no attention was paid to the human remains that had burned beyond recognition; only such bodies were placed under the micro scopic view of these representatives ol the law, that were in such condition as to be identified at least as the re- mains of a human being; all the odd legs. arms. disconnected skull bones, jaws, necks. etc, were left to be ap- propriated by the relic hunters who swarmed like yultures around the scene of the disaster. While Coroner Culver and Coroner Richey were mak- ing faces al each other and finding. the cause of the wreck, boys and men were scraping the ruins, finding jaw bone here, some teeth there, shin bone some where else and carry ing all such finds away. Why did not the coroner of Tucson put guard. over the burial of every vsstige~ ot humanity recovered, instead of lea7- ing the ruins at the mercy of whoever might desire 10 apropriate it's relics If the coroners were negligent of this duty. the managers oI the Southern Pacific railroad should have shown sufficient respect for their dead pas sengers 10 insure the intsrment Of e7- cry remaining atom of humanity con tained in the ruins Of the wrecked and burned cars. II will be little consolation to those who had friends and relatives killed and burned in the awful wreck, to know what railroad man caused the wreck, but it would have been consolation to all 10 have known that the railroad company and coroners of Tucson had stood by and secured for respectful burial the man gled and charred bits of their relatives and friends. Wko cares 10 know whether it was the mistake of con Snctor or an operator that caused the fearful loss of life; the company is alike responsible no matter on whom Me blame might be placed.

The bills introduced into the pres .ent legislature which seeks to repeal all the avs which have been enacted in the past exempting railroads from taxation should be turned down. We believe that there should be no more laws passed exemptng railroads or any other property from taxation, but We do not believe the people Of Ari- zona want to annual or render void any agreement of the past extending the taX-eXemption favor to railroads. The railroads built under the exemp- tion laws were promised by the repre- sentatiyes of the people of Arizona that if they would construct their lines they should be nontaxable for a certain number of years. These prom ises should be .sacredly kept on the part of the, territory.

ANOTHER VICTORY FOR o'BR1EN.
Clever Boxer Gives italian Champion
Severe Drubbing.

Joe Grim. the Italian champion, last night
took a severe drubbing at the hands Of
philadelphia Jack" OBrien in the ring of
the Broadway A. c. at Philadelphia. The
building was crowded to its capacity by
followers of boxing, among whom 1t was
generally believed that OBrien would
knock Grim out in short order. The latter.
however, succeeded On lasting the six
rounds. although he scarcely landed hard
blow in return for the numerous stiff
punches he received from O'Brien.
The champion Of England took things
easily in the opening round. but In the sec
ond he sailed in. and followed four hard
rights over the heart with left to the jaw
that sent Grim to the floor. The Italian
champion was dn distress when the round
ended.
OBrien again >eased up in the next two
rounds. The fifth was a repetition of the
second, and Grim was again knocked down
and severely punished. He took the punches
gamely, but was almost out at the bell. In
the last round O'Brien determined to end
matters quickly, but Grim resorted to
clinching, and thus filled out the time.

In regard to the future Of base ball. In a

he says:

that it Is now-an exhibition Of the ability
Of clever manager, with more money and
more tact in managerial council, to get to-
gether the best players in the market-it
will be locally patriotic game for blood.
1.-The time Is coming when the players, In
stead of being brought to play In any team
that calls" them, irrespective of where
they live and where the team Is located,
win belong in the locality from which the
team halls. There Is tendency apparent
in that direction already.
''Of course, IL this is done there will be
some work for the rules committee to do.
1t will be necessary to have some sort of
legislation to apportion the territory fairly
among the teams. New York. being the
largest city in the United States. by virtue
of its size would have the advantage Of q
to even up matters 1t would be necessary
for the committee to give the smaller towns
enough territory to make all available popu-
latfon the same. The details must be decfd-
ed by the events of the future. But l be-
lieve that something like that Is about to
come and will be the feature OF the game

Interesting Contest In Departmental
Bowling League-o'Brien Whipped
Grim-Golfers at Pinehurst.

Although. the committee Of base ball men
representing the National League at the
peace session with the American Leaguers
at Cincinnati today has not been given full
power to act. every club Of the National
League will be represented at the Ohio city
while the committees are In session. The
representatives Of the various clubs of the
old organization will be there to consider
any problem that Is put to Messrs. Hart,
| Robinson and Hermann which may In
| volve property interests or any point on
which the committee Is in doubt as to its
authority to handle.
This is understood to have been the point
| insisted on by Ban Johnson after he found
| that the National Leaguers were not dis
posed to confer final powers on their repre-
sentatives. Magnates Of the different clubs
or their representatives fully empowered to
act will be in close touch with the confe-
rees and any point that may come up that
| the peace committee Is unable to handle
| will be acted upon by the full quota Of
clubs. Under this arrangement It Is con-
| ffdently expected that the meeting Of the
peace committee will be shortened and the
prospect Of an agreement improved.
| The American League committee, con-
sisting Of President Ban johnson, Charles
! Comisky and Henry Killifea, left Chicago
| last night in a special car over the Penn
| sylvania road. President Hart Of the Chi
| cago Nationals left earlier over the Monon,
| and 1t was facetiously suggested to Ban
| Johnson that his proposed arming Of the
| special car with Hetchkiss rapid-fire gun
| was unnecessary. Johnson was in a merry
| humor and suggested that his. special car
| be christened the white Dove" for this
| trip at least.
President Johnson had expected to re-
ceive letter from Garry Hermann, noti-
| flying him of the place Of meeting, but at
| the time of hts departure 1t had not ar
rived. 1t Is possible the Laughery Club,
! Cincinnati, will be the place selected. The
American Leaguers believe that some place
should be selected in the city. This part,
however, has been left to the judgment Of
Mr., Hermann.

that this young racing firm is still intact,
although Mr.. Whitney some time ago sold
his interest in Acefull to his partner.
