Help 1t Along.

There are doubtless large number
of merchants and others i'll the city
and valley who might like to give
some article that they sell or make as
special premium for some particular
line of exhibits or events in which
they are interested. Or as an induce
ment to stimulate competing exhibit
ors to excel in one line or another.
This is fine means of advertising,
and the Fair Association will well
come any such special premiums. 1t
is the intention of the management to
secure a centrally located window in
one of the stores. or room if neces-
sary, to contain and show these pre-
miums in advance of the fair.
And it is necessary that the Secre-
tary know about these at the earliest
possible date, so as to get them sll
listed in the premium books, which
will DO printed for free distribution
shortly. Think this over. business
men and others, and decide what yo u
want to give as a special. premium. It

HOW THE NEGRO WAS GIVEN
 SUFFRAGE.

To enable the freedmen to protect themselves by the exercise of certain measure of political power. was a per plexing problem. This could be done only by putting into their hands the ballot as a defensive weapon. That the great mass of the negroes would not use the ballot intelligently and with conscientious care was indeed appre- hended by every thoughtful person. That it would have been vastly prefer able to introduce colored suffrage gradually and perhaps dependent upon certain qualifications, if that had been practicable by federal action, was also admitted by many, If not most, of those who were in favor of making the ne gro a voter. But while it was foreseen that the exercise of the suffrage by the bulk of the negroes in the south might bring forth unwelcome results it was thought that 4hose results might in the long run prove not as de- plorable as would be these to be eX- pected from an indefinite continual ton of military rule; that the southern people might see fit to subject the suf- fragee in their state to suitable quail fications equally applicable to whites and blacks; that the negro voters might be guided by wise leadership; and finally that, whatever might hap pen, this escape from the perplexing dilemma was after all the most in consonance with our principles of dem ,ocratic government-a government the blessings of which cannot be had with out the risk of its bringing forth con comitant trouble.
 l am convinced that this statement fairly represents the line of reasoning prevalent among thinking men in the north who at that time favored negro suffrage.-Carl Schurz in McClure's.

over those Of 1902, although low prices and increased import duties in the Chi nese, Japanese and Javanese markets tend to make these products less profit able. Judge Taft has consistently urged a reduction in American tariff duties fer the benefit of Philippine products, and he is now hoping for concessions in that direction to help overcome the effects of the agricultur- al depression. Judge Taft has urged that Philippine imports be required to pay only 25 per cent of the Dingley duties, instead of D per cent, as at present, and it is expected that on his arrival in this country he will be pre- pared tc push campaign with that object in view.
 The success Judge Taft has achieved in administering the civil government of the Philippines, to the satisfacton of the Flipinos, and to the vast inn provement of conditions there, should give weight to his recommendations on further legislation.-Sioux City Jour. nal.

JUDGE rAFT's GOOD REPORT.
Vast Improvement in Conditions Un. der the Civil Government Regime.

Judge William H. Taft, who has re- linquished' his post as governor of the Philippines O to succeed Elihu Root as secretary of war was given a hearty godspeed by thousands of natives, for eigners and Americans on his depar- ture from Manila last week. Judge Taft wanted to come home a year ago and might now be occupying a seat on the supreme bench if he had let his own desires rule. But the situation in the Philippines was then looking very dark, and Governor Taft did not feel warranted in lying down the executive burden in the face of earnest protests from all classes of Filipinos. Now the situation has cleared. It is encouraging to hear Judge Taft expressing the con- yiction that the condition of affairs in the archipelago is now more favor able than at any time in it's history.
 In an interview just before his de- parture Judge Taft declared that the colera, bubonic pest. rinderpest, and ladrones are new well under control
 and only few seasons, of good crops are needed to bring the Philippines peace and extraordinary prosperity
 The hemp crop of the present year has broken all records. The sugar and to- bacco crops show substantial increase

SUBURBAN REPAIRS.

The SSunset Telephone company has had two men. from Phoenix for the past few days. Not that the line is not working good, but the suburban line has been troubled in several ways. At first there was considerable diff ficulty where the line crossed the road on account of the stackers going under. Frequently the wire was cut. To avoid this the line was run under the road through small pipe. This worked well until the small boy in the neighbor- hood found that by cutting the wire where it went into the pipe he could cause trouble for some enc. Since that time there has been hardly a Friday but that such an accident did not take place. It was to remedy this defect that the men are now at work The length of the pipe is simply extended and again the small boy is deprived of vast amount of pleasure

 The Modern expects to resume work in a few days. It Is thoroughly re- organized on a financial basis com mensurate with the magnitude of the undertaking and the probabilities are that the stock will quietly and stead fly improve as work progresses. It is one of the outposts of the dts trict and the progress of the work will be attended with unusual interest by mining men and property owners all over the field.
 The Red Jacket is digging quietly n long in the same formation, lime.
 It is reported on good authority, that the Copper Queen will soon he gin sinking a regulation working shaft on the White Tail Deer, and that the work will be done by. contract. This news has long been expected in domes- tic mining circles. In such event. the property will doubtless be connected with the Lowell by drift, thus forming continuous underground connections from the old shelter several miles, and establishing a magnificent system.
 It was reported at the c. & B. Sun day afternoon that a straight away match had been arranged between Sell Tar and Chamberlain. Jim Malley, the accomplished steel monger at the c. & B. got word to prepare steel for Tarr. In such event. of course, Ed Malley perhaps the swiftest turner and steel changer in the field will look after Sell Tarr.

The Portage Lake has about a dozen pumps ranging in capacity from a seltzer bottle to a standard sinker. The water does not appear in volume that is in any way formid- able. The boiler capacity at the Port age Lake is inadequate, and the com- pany will probably find it necessary. to add a boiler in the near future.
