MARRIAGE BY TELEGRAPH
A Young Man in Phoenix Wants a
 Wiry Knot Tied.

Love has not yet found the way, but he is hunting for it and making dili- gent and curious inquiry. Yesterday d young man temporarily residing in this part of the country called on mer- chant and asked him if it would be possible for him to get married by tel egrap The merchant didn't know. He had heard of marriages by telc- phone and by proxy. but he Was rather inclined to believe that the line. would be drawn at the telegraph. That would require too many intermediates.

But the board has no means of knowing what the total y'llu- ation of the property of the territory will be until Apache has been heard from. That. however. is not an essen tial thing and the board was on the point of adjourning without finding it. It was though later decided to wait for the report and at the same time take measures for hurrying it up. A teie- gram was sent yesterday to J. Wat tron of Holbrook, eighty miles distant from the county seat of Apache, asking him to send a man there after the ab- stract. MT. Wattron was directed to spare no expense in carrying out the request.

 DEMOCRATIC COUNTY TICKET.
Bisbee daily review., 1904-11-04

The republicans are still trying to dodge the issue, but the people know that the only issue in this campaign is tine danger to joint statehood with New Mexico and the only hope of av- erting this calamity is in the election of Mark Smith, the democratic can didate for congress. It is we'll known that Delegate Rodey, repub- lican, of New Mexico was as ardent in his plea for single statehood tor that territory as was Mark Smith for Ari- zona. but NIT. Rodey could not with stand the pressure of the national ad. ministration when it made joint state hood its policy. MT. Fowler, if elect ed to congress from Arizona, will lie down before Roosevelt's command just as Rodey did.

A RIGHTEOUS RECOMMEN-
 DAYTON

Governor Brodie. in his annual re- port to the secretary of the interior, recommends that congress reimburse Pima county in the amount it paid out in bonds in settlement of the old mar TOW guage railroad bonds which were legalized by congress, after the su- preme court of the United States had declared that the bond were illegal and void. This recommendation will be approve by every citizen of Arizona, just as the act of congress saddling this fraudulent bond debt onto Pima county was so universally condemned.
 The only republican elected to con- gress from Arizona in twenty years was N. O. Murphy and he is responsible for the passage of the act which took from the people of Pima county nearly $4OO. 900 to pay fraudulent and illegal railroad bonds for which not a cent of benefit was ever received.
 The recommendation of Governor Brodie is to right a great wrong com mitted by congress on one of the coun- ties of Arizona while the territory was represented in congress by a republi- can, the bill which so grossly out ragged Pima county was introduced and passed through congress by a republican, who had been elected tc represent and protect tine interests of Arizona in congress.
 The recommendation of Governor Brodie, coming now in the midst of the cmapaign should serve as warn- ing to the people of Arizona and cause them to cling to Mark Smith who has stood the faithful represen- tative of our people in the past.

THE CANDIDATE

We find the following in an ex- change. Anyone reading it will at once see that it fits the republican can didates now chasing around in Cochise county trying to induce fool demo- crats to vote for them:
 "A candidate is an American citi- zen frenziedly anxious to neglect his own business for a chance to neglect that of the nation. He is as full of promise as sn early spring is of bios sons he wears smile as wide as a pasture and as genuine as a ChefoO dispatch; he shakes hand on the street with men he shakes a head at in the bank; and he raises his hat to la dies his wife raises her nose and eye brows to. He is solicitious about the health of tabies he never saw and ba- bies he wishes he couldn't see; and while he amazes the righteous by the sudden fervor of his faith, he earns reputation as a dead game sport in re- gions where religion grows more slowly that Rockefeller's hair. As a good citizen and unyielding Ieformer, he abhors corruption; but as an honest merchant he is willing to pay for all goods that are delivered, be they steel billets or stolen ballots. A member of the church, he shudders at the curses of civilization-rum and to- bacco; but as citizen, merely in politics for his health, he subsidies the drinking of that health early and often, and he knows no better plan of smoking out the enemy than outsmok- ing him. Moreover. no good Ameri- can industry, can deliberately dis courage two widespread agencies of wealth and expect to be accepted as a patriot.
 ''As election day approaches, his views on geography, ethnology and human brotherhood broaden and deep- en. The woes of Ireland touch his heart deeply in one portion of his district;he boasts of his Anglo-Saxon origin in another. He grasps the sinewy hand of sturdy Scandinavia on Monday; he acknowledges the re- pubIic's debt to Germany on Tuesday; he believes the full glory of the nation will come, on Wednesday, only when the genius of Italy tingles in u @ veins of the stern Puritan; and at a union meeting in a secluded vestry on Friday he warns his Methodist and Baptist brethren against the scum which European emmigIation is casting mon our sacred soil and revered insti- tutions. Deserving charities begin 10 touch him acutely; be develops a passion for labor picnics and dubious dances: he is fearless in stating that the battle scared saviors of the uuion have been treated with scant generosity by the nation; and he wants it distinctly understood that he stands firmly for high wages, high tariffs, high ideals, white mans government and unhampeTed suffrage for the coIored man, peace, a strong navy. cheap beef and cheap coal. no .r ,sts and no government meddling with business. and no matrimonial expansion in Utah"

Employers Liability Law.
The wage-workers are peculiarly en-
titled to the protection and the encour-
agement of the law. From the very ma
ture of their occupation railroad men, for
instance, are liable to be manned in do
ing the legitimate work Of their profess
sion unless the railroad companies are
required by law to make ample provision
for their safety. The administration has
been Jealous in enforcing the existing law
for this purpose. That law. should be
amended and strengthened. Wherever
the national government has power there
should be stringent employers liability
law, which should apply to the govern
ment itself where the government Is an
employer of labor. A
In my message to the Fifty-seventh
congress-, at its second session, I urged
the passage of an employers liability law
for the District of Columbia. I now re-
new that recommendation, and further
recommend that the congress appoint a
commission to make a comprehensive
study of employers liability with the
view of extending the provisions OF

search have reached the tillers Of the soil
and inspired them with ambition to know
more of the principles that govern the.
forces Of nature with which they have to
deal. Nearly half of the people Of this
country devote their energies to growing
things from the soil. Until recent date
little has been done to prepare these mill
lions for their life work. In most lines of
human activity college trained men are
the leaders. The farmer had no oppor-
tunity for special training until the con-
gress made provision for It 40 years ago.
During these years progress has been made
and teachers have been prepared. Over
5000 students are in attendapce at our state
agricultural colleges. The federal govern.
ment expends 100000 annually toward
this education and for research in Wash
ington and In the several states and terri.
