AS A general thing great political changes have occurred in this country only during periods of depressed business conditions, but there never was a time in the history of this country when labor was so fully em- ployed, and business conditions as satisfactory, as at the present time, and yet sweeping and wonderful changes have occurred throughout several of the northern states. This can be accounted for only upon the theory that the people are growing more liberal in their political opinions, and refuse to longer abide by the dictates of the political bosses and machine politicians. A great wave of political reform seems to be sweeping over the country, which has obliterated party lines, and will continue to do so until the grafters are fired from the high places. These elections, however, do not mean that the republican party will cease to exist, but rather that many of it's corrupt managers will be rele gated to the shades of oblivion. The people are weary of the grafters, and will themselves take control of public affairs.
The copper era., 1905-11-16

IT IS well known that President Roosevelt, in his forthcoming mes sage, will recommend that the gen eral government assume some sort of jurisdiction over the rate making power of the railroad. Of course this will be fought by many senators, who are merely the representatives of the railroads, but their power is not sufficient to defeat the will of the president, who is determined that the people through the govern ment, shall have a say in the making of rates. For years the railroads have arbitrarily made rates to suit themselves, which in most cases were high enough, except where rebates were given to a favored few. In England, in Mexico, and in fact in many foreign countries, the govern ments set the rate on both passenger and freight fares, and this should be done in the United States. It is done in Texas, to the great benefit of the people, and yet there are more miles of road built in Texas than in any other state in the union. In most states, and in all territories, the railroad influence controls legisla- tion, so that the people have nothing to expect from that source. In Ari- zona both passenger and freight fares are higher than in any other state or territory of the union, and at the same time the tax rate is lower. Arizona people have nothing to hope for in this line from their legislature. The railroads have the members grabbed. This was plainly illustrated last winter when members of com mittees were taken on a pleasure trip, at the expense of the railroad, through California. Neither can we hope to see the railroads fairly taxed by the present board of equalization. But it is possible that the people of Arizona many receive some relief through the general government.

THE time is drawing near for the territorial fair, yet, we believe, no arrangements have been made for a general exhibit of minerals from this section. This is a great mistake, as the district should be well repre- sented at the fair. Thousands of people, strangers from other states, will visit the fair, and will be sur prised to learn that the Clifton-Mo- renci district, perhaps the greatest mineral belt in the world, is not repre- sented. The trouble with this section is the total lack of enterprise shown by home people. No one, apparently, seems to care whether the outside world ever hears of us or not. How ever, there is yet time to get up a fairly good exhibit, provided the con- missioner from Graham county will come up from the valley and work it m.
