orable executive could ignore. The sit uation called for immediate action. And the general verdict is that in all prob ability great loss of life and immeas- urable destruction of property was avoided by Colonel McClintock's s prompt arrival in Morenci with the na- tional guard and by the general knowl- edge that the regulars were hurrying up behind the militia. It is notorious that rioters as a rule do not fear the militia-they do not believe that the guardsmen will shoot to kill.
 We understand that Governor Brodie warmly endorses Acting Governor Stoddard's action, throughout.
 In any event, the Citizen will have to look elsewhere than Mcrenci for demo- cratic capital.
 Editor Moore usually has a fine sense of humor, but in his article of June Il he solemnly and unconsciously betrays the old, absurd states-right attitude of the ancient democrat toward the na- tional government. Passing by as too ridiculous for notice the assertion that the call for federal troops will injure Arizona in the east, one cannot help inquiring, Why should any good Amer ican object to the use of Uncle Sam's regulars whenever it is necessary to use the military at all? Why discrim- mate between the regulars and the na- tional guard? Every citizen who is proud of his country Is also proud to think that each regular is his repfe- sentative. The federal government is not the enemy of the people. There is no reason why anybody should be sus- picious of Uncle Sam. His soldiers are in Arizona and elsewhere in the several states for the very purpose of being used as they are now used at Morenci to preserve life and property, main tain the peace, and to permit citizen soldiers to return to their business as soon as possible. To the law abiding citizen there is nothing terrifying about the regulars. And the flag they carry is a flag which cheers the heart of re- publican and democrat alike. The Citi- zen should wake up. Don't be afraid of the regulars. This is not the year 1860.

Prompt Justice In Yavapai County.

Judge Sloan, District Attorney Clark, and Sheriff Roberts of Yavapai county deserve reorganization up- on the speedy trial and conviction of the murderers, Hilario Hidal- go and Francisco Rentario, and espec- ially is the trial jury to be commended for fixing the penalty of death. Hang ings in Arizona are too few.
 In February last, Hidalgo and Rem tario murdered Charles Goddard and Frank Cooke in cold blood and without even a pretense of provocation. The murdered men. both peaceable citizens. were, with two other men and God dard' family, at a lonely ranch house in Yavapai county on the night of the murder. All were at the supper table when the two Mexicans walked in and demanded food. Goddard kindly re- quested them to wait a few minutes and the answer he received was a fusil- ade from the two assassins. Like many other tragedies which have been com mitted in the remote districts of the territory, the murder of Goddard and Cooke can only be attributed to a tiger ish enmity to human life. Sometimes robbery has been the motive for these assinations-probably it is always associated with the crime-but unques- of the nationality of Hidalgo and Rentario who kill merely for the pleasure of killing. It is re- grettable in the extreme that ap- prehension and conviction have not al- ways followed these crimes. And when trial has been had. juries have been imposed upon by interruptions lawyers and the assassins have escaped with ing made it the jury's duty to say whether murderer shall be hanged or imprisoned for life, juries have almost uniformly fixed the lighter penalty. out before, Mexicans of the type of Hidalgo and Rentario consider impris- onment at Yuma as no punishment at all. There is no work for them in the prison, they are we'll fed. and they rest under a reasonable certainty that soon or late they will be liberated.
 For criminals of this class speedy trial, certain conviction. and certain death by hanging at the hands of the law constitute the only terrors. Even conviction and hanging to take place some time after "manana" is not to be feared, for immediate results alone are taken into consideration.
 The work at Prescott has been well performed indeed, so far. It is to be hoped that there will b no indefinite postponement of the hanging to the ex- tent of causing the assassins and those like them to lose sight of the lesson which the swift trial should convey.

All the lynchings within twenty-on years that he could verify have been tabulated by MT. Cutler of Yale uni versity. In that time 1872 negroes have been lynched and 1,256 whites. Since the whites are about six times as Of negroes lynched is. of course, very much higher than these figures indi- cate. Only 8 per cent of these negroes were lynched for the social crime that is usually associated in the mind with this method of punishment. The num-

South Carolina there are only 6l adult males to every 100 children. while in New York there are 102 to every 100. In the North each child is dependent upon only one wage earner; in the South each wage earner must support two children. The people are poor because they are igno- rant. and they are ignorant because they are poor. Nothing but industrial educa- ton can solve the problem.
 Another fact must be borne in mind, namely. that the two races in the South must forever be educated apart. That means that the South must always run two sets of schools. But In order to do this successfully, the white man must first be educated. The undeveloped white man must be discovered. The great prob- lem of the South is not primarily the ed- ucation of the negro, but the discovery of the unprivileged white man. The white man Is the natural leader, and he must be educated in order that the negro may be led in the proper way"
 Dr. McIver said that in the State of North Carolina, where he lives. salaries were getting larger, school terms were being heightened. and great progress was being made in education in general. even if the present per centages did appear unfavorable. pr. McIver was followed by MT. Baldwin, who made short state ment concerning the purposes of the Gen. eral Education Board, and President AL derman spoke briefly concerning the progress of education in the nation.

RED BRIDGE ROAD LINE
FRANCHISE GRANTED TO oPER-
 ATE STREET CARS.
William Berney Secures Franchise from Board of Revenue, But De- clines to Discuss Plans.
 To Develop Lands.

A franchise to operate a street railroad on and in the vicinity of the Red Bridge Road was granted William Berney and associates yesterday by the Board of Revenue of Montgomery County. MT. Berney appeared before the Board and urged the granting of the franchise. He did not say that the road would be built, but indicated that there was deal Oh between himself and the Montgomery 1 Street Railway in reference to the opera tion of the line. in case the track was | laid.
 The application for the franchise is as follows {:
 ''To the Honorable Board of Revenue of Montgomery County. "Gentlemen:-The undersigned for him self and associates and assigns respect fully make application for a right of way for an electric railroad over the follow ing named streets.
 Commencing at the intersection of Hall and Houston Srets then along Hall Street to East Washington Street, then along and down East Washington Street to and across Vickers Street. Respect fully, William berney."
 It was explained by members of the Board that part of this route, not being on a public road, was not under their
 
 chise, however, commencing at the inter section of Houston and Hall Streets over what Is known as the Red Bridge Road. out the said Red Bridge Road to East Pelham Street This street Is one block beyond East Washington Street.
 Mir. Berney agreed for the franchise to extend the additional block in case he should desire for the line to go down East Pelham Street instead of East Wash ington Street.
 A proviso was added to the franchise for J. M. Garrett, County Engineer. to draw specifications as to now the tracks should be placed on the road.
 To a representative of The Advertiser Mir. Berney said that the matter was only In it's incipiency and probably the fran chise. would never be used. He declined to discuss his plans.
 Raphael Semmes, general manager of the Montgomery Street Railway, said that a proposition had been made his com pany by Mir. Berney. but as far as he knew no action had been taken in regard to it. The matter was in such shape, he said. that he could not discuss 1t.
 It was said yesterday that the proposed agreement was that Mir. Berney and as- sociates should lay the track for the road and the Montgomery Street Railway is to operate 1t.
 Mir Berney is said to be interested in a land company owning considerable prop erty in the Red Bridge Road neighbor- hood and for the development of this property the road is contemplated
 The Board of Revenue transacted no other business yesterday and took an ad- journment until Monday.

THE CHINESE INDEMNITY,
will the Creditor Nations Make Con
 cessionsP

New York Mail and Express.
 The United States seems likely to find itself at odds again with the European
 powers in dealing with the Chinese tn- deminity question on account of It's policy of being fair and considerate rather than stern and exacung. The Government Is disposed to sympathize with the equitable claim of China that the additional bur den shall not be put upon 1t of making up the difference between the gold equiv alent at the time the protocol was signed and at the various times when payments are to be made.
 China was on the silver basis when the indemnity was fixed at 45O.OOO,0OO Hail Kwen taels. With her this necessarily meant silver, as all her revenues are collected and her payments made by that standard. But the powers were to be paid in gold. and by way of defining the equivalent, the exchange value of the tael at the time was specified in the pro- tocol as TAB cents in our money, or 3s. in English. As the result of collecting large sums of silver in the empire and throwing them upon the market to raise gold to pay installments of the indem- nity, the price has been depressed by nearly % per cent.
 The effect of this is obvious. If the lnueHnlIy lS Stlll the eQulFdleHI III BOlu of 45O,OOO.OO taels of silver. as silver now stands. the gold equivalent will be cor respondingly reduced. If the equivalent. as 1t stood when the protocol was sign ed. Is insisted upon the indemnity sud- denly expands to more than 560s000, 900 taels in the medium upon which the in- ternal financial transactions of China are based. The hardship of insisting upon what the European powers consider the letter of the bond and exacting the pound of flesh Is manifest.
 It seems to be the case for equitable consideration. Under the shifting differ ence of standards the poor empire must either pay more UT the rich nations re- celye less than either calculated upon when their contract was made. Chinas ability to pay without financial and po- litlcal disaster must be considered in the settlement It is for the interest of cred itors in such case to make concessions rather than force bankruptcy.

Case Against Solicitor Richard Lowe Will Come Up for Rearing Fri- day When Witnesses VIII
 Be Examined.

The Supreme Court of Alabama con. vened yesterday after the recess for .tht Christmas holidays
 The court met 10 consider the casei coming up from the Seventh Division consisting of Etowah and neighborina Counties. No business was transacted be- yond the formal converting and adjourn. met of the court until 10 o'clock this | morning.
 The Lowe case will come before the court Friday, January 16. The court at that time win hear testimony and de- eide whether Solicitor Richard M. Lowe of the Eighth Judicial Circuit is com potent to discharge the duties of his of- flee.
 Information for impeachment proceed ings have been filed against Solicitor Lowe charging him with being physically unable to perform the duties of Solicitor. It is charged that notwithstanding his physical incapacity of Solicitor Lowe has continued to draw his salary.
 The proceedings originated in the re- port of two grand jurtes in Solicitor Lowes circuit.
 MT. Lowe's defense is that he has not wilfully absented himself from any court and that his afflictIon came through no cause for which he was responsible or act of his own. It Is contended by. the defense that the Constitution does not contemplate the punishment of man for an afrliction proYidential in its na- ture.
 The Supreme Court will hear testimony and the method of procedure will be the same as in the Lovejoy case. A large number of witnesses, who have already been summoned from North Alabama, will appear and testify.
 Commissioners have been appointed to take the testimony of witnesses living out of the State,/ This written testimony will be submittf to the court.
