"REMEMBAR THE ALAMO"

An organization of Texas ladies, called the Daughters of tho Republic of Texas" have revived the old battle cry of 1886. Desiring to preserve ob- iac's of historic interest in their state, they have bought the Alamo at San Antonio for s75, ,0O0, and are to pay $l0. .OO0 on it on the 10th of February of each year. They have sent out an appeal of contributions to enable them to meet these payments.
 Alamo. in Spanish, means popular tree, and doubtless received its name from some natural feature of its site. It was built nearly two hundred years ago under the auspices of Spanish priests a as mission. It embraced a. church and 8 convent, a0d wns strong ly fortified to protect jr from tlu h. dians. It later times it was freuently used as fortifcation. In 1856 a body of Texans teok possession of t and were besieged by the Mexicans. On March 6. 1886, it was taken by storm, and all of the garrison that survived were put to death. At the battle of San Jacinto, in the following month, when Santa Ana was defeated and captured. Remember the Alamo" |" was the battle cry with which the Texans went to victory.
 Among the fighters for Texas irde- pendence was Gen. de Zavals, who was the first vice president of the re- public. His granddaughter, Ad;na de Zayala, is president of the San Antonio chapter of the Daughters of the Re- public of Texas" and active in the work of preserving the Alamo. The whole structure is to be turned into a museum and hall of fame. The effort to save this historic structure ought to ucceed, and doubtless it will

Hon. Charles Strong struck an eco. nomicaI chord when he introduced q bill putting the disrtict clerks of Ali. zona on salary. The clerks of tn, territory have had feast of fees dur ing recent years and 1t is time that they were provided decent salary and required to turn all fees earned into the county treasury. The passage of such a law would save to some of the counties in the territory good round sum every year and not do any ipjus- tice to tho clerks.

That there will be some legislation enacted by the present legislature affecting the status of gambling in Arizona is almost certain. There is q growing sentiment against public gam bling and that sentiment is we'll known to the men now sitting in the legisla ture. The bill now proposed would prohibit the licensing of any gambling game in the territory, but it is doubt ful if such a measure could be passed without an accompanying local option feature which would give to every community the privilege of deciding whether there should be any gam bling permitted in the community or rot. The strongest sentiment is behind the proposition to prevent the running of any gambling game in any building in tine territory where liquor of any kind is sold or given away or drauk.

RAILRoADs MUsr OoNTRoL

hAlhRD ADS MCo1 OON hOA4
 President Roosevelt's action in ap pointing Jospeh L. Bristow special commissioner to conduct searching in- veStigations into the freight rate equal ities and extortions in the United States, coming right on the heels of the presidents declaration that the question of railroad regulation is the paramount issue. indicates. in meas ure, the great importance which Mir. Roosevelt attaches to the fight to bring the allied railroads. of the UnitedStstes to terms.
 The president knows. as every req sonable and well informed man knows, says the Omaha World Herald, that this great contest will be neither mild nor esay to win. The railroads are in the hands and under the control of that group of frenzied fnanciers that con- t1ol also, in very large measure, the great trusts of the country, the big banking interests and trust ompuaies, the life insurance companies and thos other great institutions that are the backbone of American plutocracy.
 If the president wages the fight as he has promised to wage it, it vii be, in very truth, war on behalf of the masses to wrest from the favored few those unjust privileges behind which. through negligence and class legisla ton, they have been enabled to but tress themselves while systematically plunde-ing the American people. It will be the greatest warfare for dem ocracy that has been waged on Amer jean soil since Andrew Jackson attacked the shattered the power of Nicholas Riddle and the little gang that, with him, essayed to dictate and control the finances of the country.
 And now, as then. the stronghold of the intrenched plunderers will be found in the senate of the United States. It is to the senate that the railroads. the trusts and the great financial interests have for decades been sending those men on whom they can most safely rely for protection when the storm breaks about their heads. It is in the senate that all the representatives of the uniustly favored interests realize that the welfare of one is the welfare of all, and that the eurtsiIing of the power of one interest to plunder thre eat ems the power of all the others.
 It is in the senate. therefore, that President Roosevelt will find his stum- bling block. if he finds it anywhere. IL is in the senate, under the leadership of Aldrich and Platt and Elkins. that the cohorts of plunder will rally to repel the attempt to win back to the people portion of their own. It is in the senate that the first determined stand will be made on this very qaes- tion of railroad regulation on which Mr. Bristow is to be sent through the country in search of evidence. And if MT. Roosevelt fails it will be be- cause tba senate bars the way.
