AS visitors approach the camp from

The women and girls are housed in
large tents-the property Of the camp,
given at different times by individuals
interested in the work. These tents,
which are fourteen by fourteen feet, are
so arranged that eight people can sleep

COERClNG THE PEOPLE OF ARIZONA.

The defeat of President Roosevelt S
scheme by the democrats to force Ar.
IONA into partnership with New Mexico,
appears to have enraged him against the
people of that territory. He threatens
them that ''if they let this chance go by,
they will have to wait many years be
fore the chance again offers itself, and
even then it probably will be only on
the present terms-that is on the condi-
ton of being joined with New Mexico
Arizona is democratic, New Mexico is
republican and the majority Of the
voters are Mexicans, and the Roosevelt
scheme is 10 force the two territories to-
gether and make republican state
This plan is very obnoxious to the people
of Arizona, who are largely Americans
and would rather remain ~ a territory
than to be ruled by the Mexicans.
Thanks to the democratic amendment
to the enabling act, the people of Ari-
iona have the right to vote, for or
against the joint statehood plan. The
federal Office holders are already engaged
in an active campaign to induce the
voters to accept statehood with New
Mexico. They should be attending to
their official business.

THE same old Bryan! republican
editors chant in a chorus. And why
shouldn't Bryan be the same ola
Bryan? What is good should continue
to be good. What IS right should con-
tinue TO be right What is Just should
continue to be just. A man whose every
word and act has, at AL times, been
characterized by truth, honesty, justice
wisdom and understanding could never
be timeserver. Such man must needs
be the same today yesterday, and for
life, as far as truth, justice and honesty
are concerned. OF course, a man that
always adheres to a wrong opinion Is
not to be enyied. But who would eX-
pect the wisest statesman of the age to
renounce correct opinions and espouse
erroneous principles?

REVILlNG THE DEMOCRATS.

Mr. Taft is disputing with Mr.. Roose'
welt the championship of the noble pro-
fession of diplomacy-hiding the truth.
In his speech to the negroes and Federal
Office holders of North Carolina, June
9th, he declared that while the demo
cratic leaders have been for years de-
claring against corporations, they have
instituted no legislative steps in all this
time to restrain the abuses. Taft knew
this to be utterly false. He knew, for
instances, that the Gillespie
resolution under which the Standard Oil
is now being investigated was of demo
cratic origin. He knew that the Till
man bill to prohibit corporations from
contributing to party corruption funds
"a bill which passed the Senate, but
was opposed by Root, Roosevelt, and
Taft so that it failed in the House-was
of democratic origin. He knew that the
democrats in congress have introduced
numberless measures designed to curb
the trusts by abo!ishing the tariff duties
Oh trust made goods.

Senator Elllins is reported to have
said that there is no satisfaction in the
possession of wealth, Well lets see
The senator would undoubtedly admit
that there is a great deal of satisfaction
in the continuous holding of a position
of honor. trust, and profit "a place OF
social and political influence, But the
having of wealth is usually essential to
the getting there. We say usually
because there are exceptions. A com
paratively impecunious man of pre-
cnGacat ability stands fairly good show
for political preferment; but nothing
short of fiIst.class ability will suffice in
the absence of wealth. But mediocrity
passes for consummate ability when 1t

BROADER GENERALS IDLE.

Our top.heavy army Is again to be re-
organized to give employment to large
Number of brigadier generals who have
nothing to do. Seven posts are TO be
established at once and two more if the
funds hold out and in each Of these is to
be concentrated enough troops TO form
a brigade with general in command.
This will necessitate the dismantlement
of most of the smaller forts with accom-
modations for one regiment or less. This
is the Roosevelt Taft plan, and the APP
preparations made by congress of $500,
OOO for army posts and $1,000, 600 for
barracks and quarters and Sl2, 600, 600
for transportation of troops are to be
manipulated to carry out the scheme
1t might be cheaper and better to retire
a few brigadier generals or for congress
to reduce their number bat such re-
trenchment could not be expected from
a republican administration.

1t has been remarked that the Ameri-

public opinion in this matter so NJ to

laws would result in but little good.
The system Of inspection under them, IN
the smaller cities and especially in the
hundreds of villages and hamlets in the
state, would be necessarily ineffective,
The work would, to large extent, be
merely perfunctory. Such inspection
could not afford TO the people anything
like guarantee as to the wholesome
At best, only small percentage of the
meat offered for sale would, at any time,
be inspected Meatinspection laws
would we repeat, afford no measurable
protection to consumers In the first
place, the inspection would often be
made by ignoramuses. In the second
place, most of the inspection work would
be merely perfUnctory. Thirdly, the
greater part Of the meat offered for sale
would, rs stated, not be inspected at all.
And fourthly, the whole system would
be merely an expensive farce.
If, under such inspection system, n
man who had been selling diseased meat
for weeks or months, should finally be
arrested and brought into court, the
chances would be two to one that he
would be acquitted by the jury, especial.

he was guilty. Witness the outcome of
