A Tempe Gold Hine. .

The people of Tempe have a gold mine under their feet and many of them are proposing to bring it to the surface. meeting will be held there on Saturday at which the business of developing it will be discussed and there is TO doubt that it will be oCn- ciuded to go ahead wiyh the develop ment.
 It is proposed to supplement the Wal Ger supply Of the Tempe canal by c pumping plant the plans of which have already been recommended by a com- mittee appointed for that purpose three months ago. The committee has given careful study to all the conditions which prevail on that side of the river and it will lay before the hclders of shares in the canal a proposition by which their wealth may be doubled at a comparatively trifling eXpen-e.
 The value of Tempe water is so great that water shares in the Tempe canal are worth now s7eOO. To the great surprise or those who have carefully investigated the subject, the same amount of water can be procured for s12cO. Then there is to be taken into consideration the reliability of the supply furnished by the pumping plant which is not dependent upon the Iise and fall Of the river the summer or winter .ains or mountain snOwfalls.
 Persons who have come from Cali fornia have marveled that the people of the south side have not before talk en advantage of the ccnditiors with which nature has favored them. There is perhaps no other se"tiCn of the arid region which can be irrigated so easily and so cheaply. If the conditions were the same On the Phoenix side of the river the farm. .ers here would have an immediate boom.
 There is no doubt that the people of Temre will proceed at Cnce to make this project an accomplished fact.

MT. Cleveland's announcement that he is not a candidate for the demo- cratic nomination has not resulted in a cessation of all the talk about him in connection with that honor The New York World continues to boom him mildly, MT. Olney re- iterates his previous statement that the ex-president is the one man fer the emergency. and a Brooklyn Eagle staff correspondent, who is just now reporting to that paper the sentiment of the south, declares that he finds considerable feeling in that section of the country favorable to MT. Cleveland. Writing from Alabama, this core spondent says: "The Cleveland men are numerous and influential, and have more hope of the nomination of their candidate than do their brethren of Georgia, the Carolinas and the Vir- ginias. Unlike the Cleveland demo- crats in those states. they have not at tempted to pick a substitute for MT. Cleveland"

The Eight Hour Bill.

David M. Parry, president of the Ma tionaI Association of Manufacturers and of the Citizens Industrial Asscci- ation of Amarica, has sent forth lit tIe pamphlet calling attention to the disastrous effects which would be caused by the adoption of a national eight hour law. This is due to the fact that a bill has been introduced in con- gress which provides that the govern ment shall buy nothing made by men who have worked more than eight hours a day, and that all government eight hour plan. Although this might seem like class legislation, involving discrimination in favor of government employees, it is probable that the pro- posed law would not be pronounced un- constitutional. But it is deemed an in advisable one by thousands, and there certainly seem to be good reasons to believe that their view is correct.
 In the purchase of commodities the government receives bids and awards contracts to the lowest bidders, thor oughly businesslike proceeding. It would occasion no little surprise if those who wished to sell their products to the government should agitate for the passage of a law prohibiting it from buying at any but the highest market rate. Yet this is what the eight hour bill aims at in regard to la bOr. Naturally, therefore, the question is asked why an exception should be made in this instance any more than in the case of. say, armor plate or meat for our soldiers and sailors. The evil effects of stifing healthy competi- tion in business affairs are visible on all sides. and there is a growing de- nland for legislation that will check this tendency, which is so opposed to the spirit of our institutions. Greater individual freedom, not more artificial restraints, is what is needed at pres ent, and it is d singular thing to find the labor trust, which includes but a small percentage of the workers of the country, urging the passage of law requiring the government to adopt a course which, if proposed by the other trusts, would be severely condemned. If the government is to be required to pay a twenty-five per cent higher price for labor than other. employers, will the next step be to require it to pay a similar advance above the mar ket rate for everything else it buys The movement must. of course, be re- garded as one of many similar schemes designed merely to enable a few to help themselves from the treas ury at the cost of the less fortunate taxpayers.

 States where they began life as plain sausages.
 Hamburg is noted for it's fine smoked
 canned and jellied eels. Where do these eels come from? From the fails of the
 Nile.
 A company of Baltic fishermen have
 settled in Egypt, catching Egytpian

 packed in cans with the three towers
 of the Hamburg coat of arms stamped on them.
 American wines are forever travel ing to Europe, to come back again in
 year or two with French, Italian and Spanish labels on them. But wines are not sent on sea voyages purely with the intent to deceive. It is believed by many vintners that a sea voyage improves a fine wine. Therfore. ships often carry wine as freight without unloading it.
 Then again, customs duties and the provision for keeping liquors in bond often make it profitable to ship wines
 and brandies to ports where they can be put in bond ckeaply until they are wanted.
 A person who studies the voyages of sherry. as shown in tables of exports and imports. is amazed to discover that of all unlikely places, Newfound land is one of the great importers for sherry. Of course Newfoundland is no. wealthy enough to be sherry drink ling country. The wine is simply sent
 to it to go into bond. One of the greatest national foods of Germany is the goose. Christmas and roast goose in Germany are as inseparable as Thanksgiving and turk ! ey in America

VOYAGES TAKEN BY FOOD
Good American Things That Go
 Abroad and Come Back French.

Tables of exports and imports show queer movements of foodstuffs. AlmO. .' every country seems to export some foods and to import the same kipG And many countries import certain kinds of foods for which they tnem- selves are famous.
 Russia is famous for the production of caviare. Yet a good part of the United States exports to Russia con sist of caviare made along the Great lakes and Delaware and Chesapeake bays
 England and Germany. both of which are known for their manufacture oi cheese, import lots of it from the Uni. ed States, and sell it again as domes- tic cheese.
 Lyons. in France is distinguished for the production of hard. red, higlly spiced sausage. There is an American concern that has developed the pro- duction of this same kind of saIsa Ea to a point where it is as good as the French and cheaper. But the world wants the French sausage.
 So the American product goes over the sea to France and in Lyons it is paced in new wrappers and boxes Then it is shipped away again to ail the countries whose hotels are crying

SIXTo LOPEZ.

Let the eagle scream, Let violated freedom wall! Let the sacred codfish drop briny tears upon the golden dome! Let Faneuil fall down and the liberty bell split in twain! Let John De Witt Warner call another indigna- tion meeting in Cooper union. Let William Lloyd Garrison write as new sonnet to Abdul Roosevelt! Let chaos and dark night return to blot from sight a nations infamy
 Sixto Lopez is to be deported The great Filipino agitator, dear to the Anti-Imperial society, has returned to his native land. Refusing to swear allegiance to the alien rulers who tyrannize over his country. he is forbidden to seek his own abode. or visit the tombs of his ancestors. Be. cause he persists in saying that he will not be loyal to the powers that be but reserves to himself the sacred right to stir up disorder among his supine countrymen, the government excludes him from the Philippines.
 If the outrage recently inflicted on an English anarchist in refusing to admit him to our shores justified q mass meeting, does not the fate of this agitator. deprived of a chance tc agitate in his own home, justify a rev. olution? What if the Philippines are pacified and the Filipinos are content and learning to appreciate peace under

War News.

It is easy at this early stage of the dict that a great deal of unreliable news is going to be sent out from the theater of war. Much of it may not be unreliable at the time of transmits sion, but it will be colored en route. There is already a manifest disposition in London to see that Japan Is not worsted by the reports, and London is the point through which much of the news will have to be sifted.
 Then. again. many of the correspond ents who committed most of the car mage in Cuba during our war with Spain will be at their bloody work again. There will be multiDlications of the vessels captured and of the other casualties incident to war.
 The partiality of London for the Jap anese will be offset in part by that of France for the Russians, and the Rus slans are also likely to fare pretty well at Berlin.
 At the best, though, the news from the seat of war is likely to be confus- ing on account of the variety of places from which it may be sent. The re- ports of yesterday led at first glance to the belief that the Japanese had secured another great advantage in the capture of two cruisers, several vessels of lesser importance, beside a large number Of Russians. That was only news of the previous day put into an other form. The cruisers were the Variag and the Korietz, found by the Japanese fleet at ChemulpO on Sunday, and which had been reported sunk. The other vessels were whalers and smaller craft which had been picked up by scouting cruisers on Sunday and Monday, unaware that the war had be- gun.

Every anti imperialist knows they should not be satisfied. but ought to rise and kill off the Americans; and if they will nos do it without SiXto Lopez. the Sixto Lopez should be permitted to incite them! Free speech is sacred right, and Sixto Lopez should not be depriv- ed of it by that imperial gag oath of allegiance
 We hope that liberty is not so dead that this incident will pass with q mere editorial or two in the anti-im- perial press. There ought to be a publ lie meeting to express indignation and defend Sixto's right of revolution.

FINANCING THE PANAMA MAT.
 TER.

Secretary Shaw's plan for paying $50,000,000 to the Panama Canal com pany and the republic of Panama should dispel all fears as to a serious disturbance of the money market in consequence of these payments. He proposes making pro rata call for % per cent of the government funds now held on deposit by national banks, 20 per cent to be paid when the treaty. now pending in the United States is ratifed-whch, t is expected will be about the middle of the present month and the remaining 10 per cent q few weeks later.
 As these banks are in cities scatter ed all over the country, the draft on each community will be comparatively light Thus New York banks accord ing to the recent report of the com tIoller of the currency. hold perhaps, s37. .OO0OO of government funds, so that under Secretary Shaw's plan the y Are called upon to surrender, first, about $7.300,O00 and subsequently about $3.00O, 900. The total surplus re- serve of the New York Clearing House banks last Saturday was over $25.000,- 0C0. The amount of government finds held by the banks in other cities i1 the neighborhood of SIPS, ,OOO,00O.
 Of course, all the government -depos- it banks have been aware for sometim" that they were likely to be called upon soon for at least a part of the govern ment funds that they hold. and natur- ally they have prepared for the event Tn addition 1t is probable that very little of the money that is to be paid out on account Of the Panama matte will leave the country.
