in his heart. Arizona Is, or soon
will be, entitled to statehood on
her own merits, but her people, al
though of the truest American
stock, and enterprising and ambi-
tious for their rights as people of
that stock always are, are content
to wait until their claims are fully
recognized and incontestably de-
monstrated. In the meantime
they are entitled to rest, to en-
tire immunity, from outside med
ding, and when they come to
knock for admission at the door of
the Union no political jockeying
should prevent it from being
opened to them.
There is not the slightest reason
to fear that Arizona will ever be a
"rotten borough" as was contempt
uously iusinuated in some quarters
last winter. The territory is in
the direct line OF the mighty host
of homeseekers who are passing
through Kansas City and onward
into the southwest, every month,
and the day is not far distant when
all of her immense area will bios
som with the radiating energies of
many thousands of citizens of the
best American type.-Kansas City

ARlzOAA'S ANSWER

The people of Arizona are TO be
congratulated upon the emphatic
manner in which they have repu-
dated the doctrine of dragooning
the territories into the Union
against their will. This pernici-
Gus and un-American idea had
never been advanced before IN the
annals of the states, and in reject
ing it by vote of over three to
one the Arizonans have only done
what the people of the older
states would have done had it
been proposed as condition pre-.
cedent to their admission TO state
hood. Ever since the tea was
thrown overheard by Boston's pa
triots the doctrine that a govern.
ment derives its just powers from
the consent of the governed has
been the warp and woof of Ameri.
can institutions, and in resenting
the violation of that fundamental
principle the sturdy people Of Ari
zona have proved themselves
worthy descendants of their Pur.
tan foreiathers.
The triumph of independent
self-government, of progressive.
ness along American lines, was
notable enough in the Arizona
elections, but it would undoubted.
ly have been still greater but for
the fact that President Roosevelt
has been immensely popular in
that territory, ana many voters
who, if left to their own inclina
tions, would have voted against
the i'll advised iointure with the
large Mexican population of New
Mexico, were swayed by their
strong regard for him. As the

were largely recruited in the ter.
ritory, Roosevelt looms up in their

TRAPPER WHO NEVER CARRIER
 A GUN

Isac Tichenor Pratt, one Of the old residents of the village, IS dead. His father was an old resident and gained a wide reputation as a hunter and trapper, which was well upheld by his son. He commenced trapping when a boy of F years, and when he was obliged to give up the practice he had seventy-nine bears to his credit, all of which he had caught in g. trap. Then only wild animal that he had not had in his traps was catamount, and he always hoped to get one of those be- fore he retired from the business.
 One of the last catches was wildcat, one of the largest every seen in the vil- age. It was the boast of MT. Pratt in all his trapping expeditions he had never carried a gun of any Kind with him; he never took any companion with him; he never was away from home over night he was always ac- companied by his faithful dog, and as a weapon to te used in emergency he carried a small hatchet, with (which he had killed many a bear that he found alive in one of his traps.-Benningto correspondence Boston HeHrald.

HOW TIGERS KILL THEIR PREY
Always Made Attack Upon the Flank
 of an Animal

Always Made Attack Upon the Flank
 of an Animal.
 I have taken considerable trouble to find out how tigers kill large game, writes an assistant controller of forests at Perash to the London Field. Some time ago I was asked to come and see a full grown bullock that had been kill ed by a tiger. On examining 1t I found the animal had it's neck broken and there were claw marks on the nose and shoulder, but nowhere else There was no doubt that the iger had jumped at the bull and landed on the shoulder and when the bull turned his head to gore the tiger he must have put his claw out and with a sudden jerk broken the neck
 On another occasion went to see a young buffalo which had been killed by tiger and found the same thing had happened. There were similar marks on the nose and also on the near shoul- der, which clearly indicated that this animal had been killed in the same way. Malays who have actually seen d llS6I hillluS d DulldlO lOlu Iuc they saw the same thing happen, also that in dragging of heavy carcass such as buffalo or bull he gets most of the weight across his shoulder.
 This must be fairly correct, as have often followed kill, and the left indicated that only portion of the animal was trailing along the ground. I have known full grown bull which ten men could not move dragged for two miles by a tiger in heavy jungle, where roots of trees and swamp had to be gone through. In n6 case have I seen the pug marks faci1g the wrong way exept when stopZing to feed, which proves he must carry a portion of the animal over his shhoul- cdr.
 The idea of tiger killing large game by blow from his paw is nonsense; besides, in this country a tiger never faces his prey but attacks him on the flank, unless chaged, Another curious fact that may seem very like fairy tale is that a tiger does not seem to mind a small lamp being tied over a kill about ten feet high but will come and feed. I have known three occas- ions when this has been tried, and each time a tiger has come to feed up- on the carcass.
