Paine,s rIonument Accepted.

A marble bust of Thomas Paine, the revolutionary celebrity, has been ad- mitted to a place in Independence Hall. Philadelphia. For years appli- cation for this privilege has been made in vain, the old aversion to Paine on account of his free-think-
 ing publications still controlling the religious sentiment of that city. It was Paine's Age of Reason" not his Rights of Men" as some have repre- gented. which created such popular antagonism in this country against the man. He was Q cumulative controFer- sialiSt and took pleasure in giving ofense to persons holding views con trarv to his own. In this he was as much of a bigot as those he assailed- But he was not an atheist. He be- lieved in the existence of God and in the immortality of the soul. That, however, in the old days when cTeeds and dogmatism were in the ascendant, was not sufficient. The unorthodox were about as unpopular as the &the- ist. As Q writer Paine rendered con

our naIo.2 the spirit of successful American business life now dominates the national affairs.
 President Roosevelt, so far as it is within his power under the consti- tuition and the laws. is running the government just as a high-cIass pres ident or business manager of a great corporation would run it's affairs. The men whom he has associated with him as cabinet officers and heads of other important branches of the gov ernment are largely men of the same type. The theorists, the bureaucrats and the inefficient have been put on the waiting list, and practical men of affairs have been placed in charge of the government. Perhaps it is just as we'll that the American constitution prevents the extension of the presi- dents authority throughout the gov ernmental structure: If it were not for congress, and to a lesser degree if it were not for the supreme court we would already see a different gov ernment and in some respects a vastly better one. But such a complete rev oIution would have it's dangers as well as it's benefits, and it was for the purpose of preventing just that sort of revolution that our present system of three coordinate branches of the government was devised.

The Dlscourager of fiesitancy.

According to some novelist-we think it was Frank Stockton-every government should be provided with an official whose duties are indicated in his tftle, 'Discourager of Hesi- tancy." In the American republic at least. this position is aIready well oc- cupied, for President Roosevelt clear ly belongs to that type of statesman that no. only wants things well done, but wants them done with immediate dispatch.
 The president has recently shown this quality of his nature to good ad- vantage in his instructions to Pan anna canal engineers. Things are not moving in canal matters as rapidly as the American people-and the pres ident-wOuld like to see. But the president is prompt to apply the rem edy. and his instructions to the en- gineers to push things with all speed compatible with satisfactory results cannot fail to be effective.

THE STAR AND THE CYNIC.

General Thomas H. Hubbard was talking in New York about the adver- tisement for an opJomisuc surgeon that Lieutenant Peary inserted in the papers before the departure of his e2t- petition.
 General Hubbard subscribed S2V'ooV to the expedition. Therefore, 1t IS easy to see that he has a profound interest in it.
 ..Peary. in his advertisement, was ,iebt " he said. Ut is as needfui that inc exDedition's physician be a cheery optomist as that he be a practical sur geon. Optimism and good spirits go

far in a voyage like this one. Perhaps il is because there has not been enough optimism and good cheer among men in the past, that the North Pole has not yet been found.
 "When it is found, an optomist com manding a band of ootomists, will find it. and there will be no such cynic in that resolute and successful crew as the one who sailed with Peary on an earlier expedition.
 He was, indeed, a cynic. Let me give you an example of his disposi- tfon. With Peary. one glorious night, he paced the deck Pointing to the sky ablaze with splendid planets, Peary said:

BOTH ERE HERE
Mule Recovered and Man Bound Over
 to Grand Jury.


 Another chapter was added to the international mule story this week. It tells of the final extradi- ton of the mule, the arrest on the American side of the alleged mule thief and bis incarceration in de- fault of u $500 bond.
 The man, Epifanio Flores, alias Epifanio Romero. whom the sheriff and the rangers have watched closely for three weeks in the hope that he might sometime carelessly cross the line, was arrested Sunday night by Sergeant Olds of the ran gers and turned over to Sheriff Fowler. Flores met a stranger on the Mexican side who professed to want to purchase horse. Drinks were frequent and not far between and when the stranger left for the American side of the line Flores promised to bring the horse across later and show it to him. When he crossed the line with the horse he rode into the presence of Ser geant Olds.
 Wednesday morning Rangers Olds and Beatty went to the Mex ican side accompanied by former Sheriff Turner, who identified the mule as one he had sold to William Bowers, from whom Flores is al- legged to have stolen it. The brand that was not visible last week was found on q closer examinations, the hair having hidden 1t. The mule was brought across to the Ameri- can side to be returned to the owner.
 When examined before Justice Gildea Wednesday Flores showed what is believed to be q fake bill of sale. He was bound over to the grand jury and being unable to furnish bond of $500 was locked up.
 The particular mule involved appears to posses some unusual attraction for men of the Flores class. It was stolen about eighteen months ago and was found near the coast after long search.

IT APPEALS FOR HELP.

The alleged newspaper, the some- times Daily Nelcs, makes pitiful appeal to the people to withdraw patronage from TIE OAsTs because it is "the only paper in Arizona which supports joint statehood.o 7 THE OASIS was once the "only newspaper in Arizona which snp- ported a single gold standard, " and appeals were then made to with draw patronge on that account. Was any withdrawn? Hardly! And in the end the single gold standard prevailed.

 Man. located st cienega. Sonora.
 Luther II. Jewel, the American mining man who disappeared from Magdalena month ago, has been located at Cienega, Sonora. A message to that effect was received yesterday by Captain Guillermo Wolf of the Mexican mounted inspectors, who has had his men along the line instructed to keep lookout for the missing men. Mr. Wolf at once communicated the news to Dr. N. K. Noon of Nogales, who is associated with Mir. Jewel in the mining business in Sonora.
 Mir. Jewel Is from San Diego, California, and has been in the Magdalena district looking after some mining properties near Llano. On May 1 he left one Of camps to go to another about three miles distant and was not again heard from till the message was re- ceived yesterday morning stating that he was at Cienega. The mes sage contained no information as to whether he got lost while trav- cling between the two camps, or suddenly decided to make a trip to Cienega and neglected to com municate with his friends.
 Thursday night Mir. Fred Jewel, banker from San Diego, Calif., and brother of the missing man, passed through Nogales on his way south to join in the search for his brother, news of the disappear ance having reached his California home. At Magdalena yesterday morning he learned of his brothers whereabouts.
 Luther H. Jewel is well known in Sonora mining circles and his absence created no little excite ment among his friends and others in the different mining localities to which the news spread
