Senatorial Fine Work ?

1t is necessary to accept as conclu
sive, apparently, the advice that
President Roosevelt's itinerary cannot
be SO changed as to permit him to visit
Phoenix, or even Prescott. But the
more one studies the time table pro-
vided for Mr.. Roosevelt's movements
in the west the more impossible it is
to understand why at least few hours
cannot be given to this territory in adj
dition to the stop at the Grand Canyon.
definitely decided upon, some months
ago, Governor Brodie was prompt to
extend cordial invitation to his OLD
comrade to so arrange the schedule rs
to permit a visit with the people of
Arizona, and the president at once ac-
cepted, in terms which were considered
positive. AS Mr.. Roosevelt has never
been here, he may be excused for sup
posing that trip to the Grand Canyon
will give him an adequate idea of the
entire territory. But there are people

thought they were doing something
smooth" by steering the president
around the central portion of the ter
ritory. and away from everything that
might denote progress and civilization.
Senator Bard, for instance. The WASH
ington dispatches stated that the junior
California senator was very prolific of
suggestions concerning the details of
the trip through the Pacific coast coun-
try.
The time table provides that MIR.
Roosevelt, after brief stop to view
the Grand Canyon of Arizona, shall ar
rive at Barstow. California, on the
morning of May /. He leaves the state
of California on the evening of May 49,
Inclusive of these dates, the president
will spend twelve days in our neigr-
boring state. Before he reaches Los
Angeles he will stop at San Bernardino
Riverside, Clarcmont, u dinky college
at dinky town called Pomona, Pasa-
dena. and possibly smaller places
After Los Angeles, he is to stop a;
Ventura, Santa Barbara, San Luis
Obispo, Monterey, and then San Fran
cisco, and so on.
1t is not unreasonable to suppose
that the distinguished Senator Bare
had something to do with having the
president make a flying leap acros:
Arizona. Mr.. Bard and other senators
who have gratuitously wronged Art
IONA by making speeches which mis-
represented conditions here would. o.
course, feel more comfortable to know
that Mr.. Roosevelt had had no oppor-
tunity to learn the facts for himself
first hand. And we suspect that more
than one hostile statesman of the ser:
ate got in his fine work on this presI
Dental itinerary.

Tillman Kissed.

Kisses rebuked Senator benjamin r.
Tillman at Detroit on Tuesday night
for his tactless assault on the soldiers
Of Sherman's army.
The north would have a low opinion
of Charleston audience that would
listen in patience to the same sort of
attack on Wade Hampton and his cav
airy, and undoubtedly the people OF
Charleston will applaud the Detroit ar-
dience that resented Tillman's slurs on
the men who marched to the sea.
However. the people of Detroit VINO
went to hear Mr.. Tillman discuss tho
race problem knew in advance that M
had not the slightest regard for the
rroprieties of the platform or for the
sensibilities of an audience. They knew
that the man who insulted the United
States senate by his blackguardisn
would not hesitate to insult an audience
invited listen to his TRADES.
Therefore. those Detroit people who,
Knowing all this. bought tickets and
went to hear Mr.. Tillman had no RICH,
to complain of his offensive language
or his contemntuouS references u
statesmen whose names and rcputa-
tons are dear to most Americans. They
took their principles and their sensibill-
ties in their hands when they entered
MI Humans presence. and if they
were treated without mercy by him,
they got no moro than they deserved.
Mr.. Tillman, tactless. with no sense of
courtesy, with no comprehension of the
decencies of debate. may not care for
the rebuke administered to him at De-
trolt but the incident should be L

ARIZONA LEGISLATURE
Work Accomplished During the Week Next Thursday Last Day of the
 Session Bills to be Passed.
IContinued from First Page. I

tlOn at their own expense was passed. There was favorable report on the council bill increasing the salary of the territorial treasurer to $2, 800. Two council bills, one authorizing the appointment of railroad police and the other providing for the appoint ment of county detectives were killed. The same fate befell the house bill making it trespass to hunt on private lands. Dr. Whiteside's public health bill was favorably reported and sent to the enrolling committee. The same disposition was made of council bill 5, providing for the reduction of the salaries of officers in counties of the fifth and sixth classes.
 The house bill prohibiting all county officers other than sheriffs from leav- ing the territory without the consent of the supervisors, was defeated.
 In the house Thursday the bill auth orizing boards of supervisors to tax transient bands of sheep was passed in spite of strong argument against it by MT. Page, but Mir. Ingalls, gave notice that he would move today for a reconsideration of the vote.
 In the closing hours of the day the passage of this bill was subsequently clinched by the failure of motion to reconsider. It was also learned that the opposition to the bill had been sacrificed to the Cowan bill and that after all it was not great sacrifice. Messrs. Page and Gonzales though they made strong fight against it released their friends from their prom ises to oppose it. It had become evident that both bills must live or both must die. Two Maricopa county members would support the Cowan bill only on the understanding that they should receive in return support for the sheep bill. It was then that the southern members turned loose and the bill was passed. But in the meantime Messrs. Page and Gonzales had received certain assurances that the bill would not be passed in the council. Without this assurance they would have continued their opposition to the sheep bill and the Cowan bill would have been lost.
 The Cowan bill which turns certain fees out of the pocket of the secretary of the territory into the treasury, passed the house by vote of l5 to 6. The passage of the bill was opposed by few members. The bill should pass the council without a dissenting vote.
 In the council, at the request of MT. Ives, the bills for the appointment of railway policemen and for the appoint ment of county detectives were restored to the order of third reading. The following bills were passed: For vali- dating the acknowledgement of foreign notaries; for regulating the practice of dentistry; authorizing city councils to exercise an option regarding the print ing of their proceedings; authorizing the transfer of money from the redemp- tion fund to the general fund. The house bill fixing the fees of jurors was killed. The bill making the hunting on private lands trespass, and two justices of the peace in precincts in 500 votes are cast were indefinitely postponed. The bill relating to the practice of pharmacy was passed.

Consolidation of Schools Con
tinues to Win Favor.

The cause of consolidation of
schools continues to win favor in
high places. 1t is now advocated
by every state superintendent of
public instruction of the South, by
an overwhelming majority of coun-
ty superintendents, by most teach
ers, and by goodly number of
those who have children in the
schools.
Within the last two years the
majority of the governors of the
states have urged legislation to
prevent the further subdivision
of schools aud to increase consoli-
dalton. 10 Tennessee, both Gov
ernor. McMillin in his last mes
sage, and Governor Frazier, in his
FIRST message to the Legislature,
urged such legislation in the
strongest terms. Governor Fra
vier says:
"My investigation leads me to
the conclusion that in many coun.
ties of the state there are too
many school districts and too
many schools. The school fund is
scattered among numerous small
and weak schools, thus limiting
the capacity and effectiveness and
shortening the term of all. A
small school is always a weak
school; it has not the vital and
growing power that number give.
"One Of the crying needs of our
public school system in Tennessee
is reasonable and practicable con-
solidation. The tendency in our
state to multiply rural schools 90
a. tolocate q public school near
to every mans door has caused q
great waste of public money and
has seriously impaired the eff.
cheney Of our public schools. We
need, above all things, stronger
schools and longer school terms"

cigars.
Many of our people were some
what disappointed, of having miss
ed the meeting of the veterans,
which was called to meet at two
o'clock in the evening, but as the
train for above arrived at half past
ten O'Clock and all the other vete-
rams were in town early, it was de-
cided to hold the meeting earlier
in order to allow those who had
come on the train to return home
on the two o'clock train, and when
our people we're going to the meet
ing, they found the old warriors
all coming out of the hall, looking
bright and happy, and all putting
fine cigar.
The meeting was called to order
by Mr.. 7. l.. Broussard of st.
Martinville. who was one of the
moving spirits in bringing the old
soldiers together.
The meeting was eloquently ad-
dressed by Mayor q. P. Fournet,
and Judge Jas. E. Mouton.
A camp was organized with the
following officers: T. L. Brousssrd,
Commander; L. q. Duchamp, first

Monday the 23rd inst, at 4:lO
O'Clock in the evening, Mr.. j. E.
Bertrand died, after having linger-
.eti on bed with sickness for near
ly three months.
From the beginning his sickness
was considered serious by the ply
,sicians, but Mr.. Bertrand was full
of hope for his recovery, but the
'ravages of the disease continued
and his vitality decreased accor-
dinghy, and it was apparentto him
self, his family and his friends
that the end was coming soon, and
death came as relief to his suf-
ferings, as ell hope of his recove-
ny was given up.
Mr.. Bertrand was aged SO years,
A months and 81 days, and leaves
TO mourn his untimely death, q
wife and six small children, an old
father and mother, brother and
several sisters.
Mr.. Bertrand was a good son, q
lowing husband, devoted father
and a sincere friend, he was 90.
*eemed and was popular with all,
he always took an active part in
the political affairs of this town
and parish, and even his political
opponents loved and esteemed
him, because he was fair, he was
honest.
At the last municipal election
he was elected as councilman, and
he ran at the head of his ticket,
and his death will leave vacancy
ON the town council.
Mr.. Bertrand was a member oil
the Knights of Honor and of the
Woodmen of the World, and both
lodges attended his funeral Tues
day evening at three o'clock, which
was very largely attended, and
which showed how high deceased
was held in the esteem of the peo-
pie of this town and parish.
In the death of Mr.. Bertrand

son, bis wife and children a good
husband and father, his brother and
sisters q good brother, and the
