great neutral powers that is in posi- tion to make friendly suggestions to
 both Russia and Japan without evok-
 ing from either a suspicion as to the
 good faith of the advice offered. Great
 Britain cannot take the initiative, for
 she is the conditional ally of Japan. France is similarly handicapped through being the conditional ally of Russia. Germany is not entangled by officially the course of Germany throughout the war has been strictly correct as to all questions of neutral ity. But Japan is thoroughly aware of the part played by the German em- peror in steadily encouraging Russia the czar to send the ill-starred Baltic fleet to Japanese waters. Japan sus- poets, of course, as all the world sus- poets, that the kaiser was playing his own game in "egging' Russia on to her ingloriOus defeat. Certainly, Russia has played directly into the kaiser's hands. Her sea power is gone, and can no longer menace Germany with the Russo French alliance on the water. At the same time she has been ex- hausted on the land, and with that catastrophe has been linked the finan- cial misfortune of France. It is sup posed that the far-seeing kaiser has been delighted with this phase of the war, although he is anxious as well to prevent Japan from gaining any ma terial benefits from her victories. The crippling of Russia goes far to assure William a free hand in carrying out his designs for German aggrandizement when the inevitable dismemberment of the Austro- Hungarian empire shall follow the death of the aged Francis Joseph. Hence. although the kaiser's motives have been open to question, his marked partiality for Russia and his numerous biting references to the Japanese made him ineligible as a peacemaker.

lature at Sacramento. Paul Morton re- fused to allow any money to be taken from the Santa Fe treasury for bribes The Santa Fe won the respect of Cali fornia for that.
 When the managers of the Standard Oil company threatened to boycott the Santa Fe or the Southern Pacific com pany if they hauled the oil of the in dependent producers to San Francisco, Paul Morton risked the loss of all the Standard Oil traffic and said he would haul all the oil brought to him. What is more, the Santa Fe did haul it. while the manager of the Southern Pacific refused to haul single barrel. If any one wishes proof of that, let him send to the Home oil company of San Fran cisco. For that, out in California, they call Paul Morton a white man.
 When Paul Morton was asked on the witness stand if he had paid re- bates, he told the truth like a man and said he had broken the law. He ex- plained that he found an intolerable condition confronting him, and it was necessary for the Santa Fe to do as the other roads did-or do without the business, and at the same time gain nothing for the principle involYedl. All the other railroad witnesses lied. can name one firm that receives $50,- 900 year in rebates from the hands of manager who swore he had never broken the law.
 "A railroad man who refuses to pay bribes for franchises, risks his job to give a few poor miners of oil a square deal and tells the truth about rebates, can have charge of my life insurance even if he does not teach Sunday school nor give French balls, and that is how they size up Paul Morton from the Rocky mountains to the Ensenada de Todos Santos"

PHOENIX. ARIZONA, JUNE Il, 1895.
The Senator From Arizona.

When United States Senator Frank P. Flint of California jocularly pro claimed himself the other night as senator from Arizona" he assumed a title which everybody in this territory will be glad to have him wear until Arizona can formally elect two senat- ors of her own. Arizonians do not slop over in matters of sentiment, but 1t cannot be denied that Senator Flint has made a warm place for himself in the hearts of our people by boldly es- pousing our cause in the fight against joint statehood.
 In taking the position which he maintains, Senator Flint has displayed courage of a rare order. The admis- sion of Arizona and New Mexico as one state is the settled policy of the half dozen men who direct legislation in the lower house of congress, al- though perhaps a majority of the re- publicans in that body have unwilling Iy followed the leaders. And in the senate, although a brave minority of republicans protected Arizona against the Hamilton bill. the steering com mittee" which controls that body was against us last session, and presum- ably will be against us in the Fifty ninth congress. MT. Flint Is both new senator and a young man. New senators, especially if they are young in years, find many obstacles in the way of their advancement in the sen ate if they refuse to accept the dicta- tion-politely called "advice"-of the Senate's bell-wethers.
 Senator Flint has considered all these things. of course, and he prefers to be right rather than polite. He fully understands the penalties he may be called upon to pay as the price of his temerity in daring to follow course that is considered inimical to the men who have elected themselves the dictators of the senate. The junior senator from California finds his posi- tion in the senate far different from that of Senator Perkins, his colleague. Senator Perkins also has won the grat- itude of Arizona by taking the side of this territory against joint statehood, but he has achieved a commanding po sition in the senate from which he cannot be dislodged. Senator Flint's brilliant talents warrant him in aspir- ing to a very high place in the worlds greatest legislative body, and it is no small sacrifice on his part when he deliberately places a handicap upon himself in order that he may do jus tice to a remote and uninfuential ter ritory.
 The sacrifice is one which all Arizona should appreciate. and does appre- ciate.

Welding the Big Stick Over Japan
 and Russia.

The cartoonists will be quick to seize upon MT. Roosevelt's new position as the worlds peacemaker, and we shall have a host of drawings picturing him as yielding that famous "big stick over the heads of the czar and the mikado. But let the cartoonists have their fling; MT. Roosevelt has done the right thing, at the right time. And he has done it with consummate skill and tact
 The identical note telegraphed to St. Petersburg and Tokio, and printed in full in the telegra phic columns of The Republican yesterday, is destined to become one of the most historic docu- ments that ever emanated from the White House. Without endangering in the slightest the traditional friendship which subsists between this country and Russia and this country and Japan, the president, upon his own in itiative, has taken the steps which in all probability will end the war which for nearly year and a half has been raging between two of the mightiest nations of the world. Indeed, instead of weakening the ties between Uncle Sam and the two belligerents, the presidents dispatch seems to have placed the Russian government. at least, in a most pleasant frame of mind toward us MT. Roosevelt has dis armed all serious criticism in advance by stating: "The president suggests that these peace negotiations be con ducted directly and exclusively be- tween the belligerents; in other words, that there may be a meeting of Rus sian and Japanese pienipOtentiaries or delegates without any intermediary. in order to see if 1t is not possible for those representatives of the two pow CTS to agree to terms of peace" No accusation of American putting in" can be made in the face of such frankly worded document.

The kaiser has made a prince of Chancellor Von Buelow, in recognition of the chancellor's adroit meddling in the affairs of France. The retirement of Foreign Minister Delcasse, Russia's most consistent friend in the French government, and the man Germany had most reason to fear. was caused by the failure of the French cabinet to sustain DeIcasse in his policy of oppo- sition to the kaiser's designs in Mo- rocco.

HORSE FALLS IN CISTERN.
Then Battles with Water Moccasin for Life-Rescued by
 Bremen.

horse belonging to William Scales. of Kansas City, Kan, fell in an unused cistern the other day. The animal was almost submerged, nothing but his head and neck remaining above the water When the hose company from fire head quarters arrived large water moccasin about five feet long had wrapped itself about the horses neck and had bitten the animal several times.
 The snake was an ugly looking reptile and for few moments the firemen hesi- tated about going down in the we'll. Vol unteers were called for, and some of the men, more venturesome than the rest, climbed down on a ladder and with a large stick killed the snake. The horse was then lifted from the cistern and a veterinary surgeon applied antidotes for the snakes bite. Although the horse suffered considerably from the com- bined effects of the fall and the snake bites. it will recover

FRIGHT RESTORES SPEECH
Flames in Room of Dumb and PAs. alyzed Man So Scare Him
 That He Begins to Talk.

Thomas Herring, a dumb and par alyzed old man living with his son-in- law, E. Moss, in London. was so over- come with fright when fire broke out in his bedroom recently that he sud- denly began to speak.
 Herring, who is 71 years old, was . robust man, and up to short time ago was enjoying good health, even work ing at a small blacksmith's forge. Ono day he suffered stroke of paralysis. which also left him speeches..
 The other evening two men rushed In shouting that one of the upper rooms was on fire. Running up stairs to the chamber of his father-in-law Moss saw that the window curtains were ablaze and the woodwork was alight- The wind had blown open tho lamp, causing the fire
 The paralyzed man lay on the bed helpless, unable to stir hand or foot or raise cry of alarm. The agonized look on his face showed, however, that he realized the terrible nature of his position. The flames were smothered before they had made much progress. and the patient escaped unhurt.
 Shortly after the family were sur- prised to hear the voice of the par. alyzed father. He was able to speak distinctly few words and his speech was coherent The next days his pow CTS of speech were still further restored and he regained the complete use of his voice and was able easily to converse with the family.
 The restoration of the lost faculty was evidently the outcome of the shock which his system experienced on tho outbreak of the fire.
 Although the paralysis of the limbs remains, Mr. Herring's health has im- proved so much that he has been re- moved from the house to 8 hospital, where 1t is the opinion that he may live long time.

JURY CHOSEN
 FOR ROBERTS TRIAL. Mrs. R. G. Lightle Suffers Ner- vous Prostration in Court Room and is Taken to
 Hotel in Carriage.

Marianna, April II. The trial of John V. Roberts on charges growing out of the sensational grave robbery and life insurance swindle at Saarcy last May began in the circuit court here on a change of venue today.
 The case was called this morn ing at 9 o'clock, but was carried over until 2 this afternoon on ac- count of Conductor Ed Dickey and Dr. Faust, witnesses, being absent. Dr. Faust came in this evening. Dickey is in Memphis sick.
 After nearly four hours the jury was selected to try the case.
 Two deputy sheriffs were sworn in tonight to take charge of the jury, and Judge Hutton notified the jurors not to talk to anyone nor to read the papers.
 w. A. Compton, who was county judge of Pulaski county four years, has been retained by the prosecution.
 The defense exhausted their twenty and the state five out of ten challenges.
 Mrs. R. c. Lightle, who is here as a witness for the defense, was taken i'll in the court room this evening on account of nervous prostration, and was attended by Dr. Williams. Her sudden illness caused considerable con- motion in the court room, which was packed to it's utmost capac- ity. Mrs. Lightle was taken to the hotel in a carriage and is in a serious condition tonight.
 The opening argument will be made tomorrow and the case will consume the balance of the week.

Gen. Sickles Declares War Was Or. dained by God and We Will
 Always Have It.

The cornerstone of a monument to be erected in Salem Fields cemetery, Cypress Hills, l.. l., in honor of Jews who lost their kves in defense of the union was laid recently. Nathan Straus. chairman of the auxiliary committee of the Hebrew Union Veteran association. presided. In the course of his remarks Mir. Straus referred to "A time when war will be reckoned survival of bar barism." This brought protest from Maj. Gen. Daniel E. Sickles. retired. who lost leg at Gettysburg.

I know many think that wan are dreadful, but we have had our wars since the world began. and we shall always have wars In the provi- dence of God war was ordained, and the human race will always fight for what it loves.
