GLOBE had a monster parade on
May Day, which was composed
principally of the wage earners of
the camp. The Globe newspapers
state that the affair was principally
under the control of the socialists,
whose influence was such that the
stars and stripes were conspicuous
for their absence, and further that
the band was not allowed to play
patriotic airs. The papers also
state that this part of the program
was not appreciated by many of
those who participated in the
parade. In barring the stars and
stripes from labor procession it
would seem that those in control
we're grossly ignorant of the mean
ing of the flag or they have strong
leaning towards anarchy. No mat
ter what may be the political condi-
ton of the country today, the flag
stands for a government of the peo-
pie, by the people and for the people.
With all of it's faults this is still the
best government on the face of the
earth. Eighty-fYe per cent. of the
people of this country belong to the
laboring class, and they have it with
in their power at any general cleo
ton to sieze the government and run
it to suit themselves. This they have
a legal and moral right to do, but if
the socialists, who now aspire to lead
the working forces in thought and
politics can not march under the flag
of the country then their teachings
will never take deep root with
patriotic and truly loyal American
citizens. Any patriotic citizen will
naturally resent the slightest disre-
spect cast upon the flag of his coun-
try.

SENATOR CLARK of Montana has
announced his retirement from poll
tics, which was Immediately followed
by the statement that August Heinze
would be his successor. There now
seems no reason to doubt that when
the various copper interests of Butte
were amalgamated the senatorship
was one of the considerations which
caused Henize to consent to it. 1t
seems that the U. S. senatorship of
Montana is commodity of barter
and trade. Clark originally bought
his seat, and paid a good round price
for it, but Heinze and some other
political enemies made such a howl
over the coarse work done that the
senators were compelled to investi-
gate the matter, and the result was
that Clark was sent home in dis
grace, but nothing daunted, he again
purchased the legislature and re-
turned with a new set of credentials,
and was then allowed to take his
seat in peace. He has none of the
qualifications of a statesman, but he
has the "dough" and by judicial in
vestments he has been able to crafty
his ambition. However, in this
respect he is no worse than many
others. Heinze is a man of action
and mental vigor, but he will scruple
at nothing to carry his point. Truly
the politics of Montana are in a
pitiable mess.

THE loss by fire in San Francisco
will amount to s3OO,OOO,O 900, a large
proportion of which is covered by
insurance. Most of the old line COM
panies can pay, but many of the new
er ones will be forced out of business,
and all of them will feel the effects
of this fire for many years to come.
1t is such disasters that cause high
rate OF insurance. They do not oc-
cur often, but the companies haYe to
figure on them. Insurance is, to a
certain extent, cooperative. A man
NAV carry insurance all his life and
derive no benefit from it, but he is
like the Texan with his six shooter,
when he needs it he needs it bad.

THE MariCopa county grand jury
has unearthed another territorial
scandal by investigating the insane
asylum. 1t will be remembered that
only a few weeks ago Sadie Jones,
formerly of Morenci, was killed, in
fact it might truthfully be said that
she was murdered, by a woman at
tendant, and now comes the report
of the grand jury, which reveals a
most shocking state of affairs. The
ERA hopes that the governor will at
once make a clean sweep of all at
tendants and in addition to this they
should be prosecuted to the full ex-
tent of the law. 1t is a great pity,
shame, as well as crime, to
treat poor demented creatures in
any other than the most kindly man.

MOrenci 7, Clifton 3.

After giving the crack MorenCi
team shut-out week ago the hill
city boys frightened up one or two
loose strings and on last Sunday laid
the locals in the shady place by d
score of 7-3. While the score does
not indicate it, still it was even more
exciting than the one to nothing
game.
The ball started rolling in the
very first inning for the Morenci
boys when the old veteran, McClel-
land, reached first on an error. Then
came MOrehead, new one, who con-
nected for three-bagger, and Mac.
went home. Then came Cramer, Bos-
quet and O'Brien with singles and
then when Riley muffed the third
man at first, Morenci fans felt vic
tory and returned" cash jingling at
the bottom of their pockets. When
the atmosphere cleared away Mo-
renci had scored four runs which
looked good, even though but one of
them had been earned Clifton went
to the bat and before the boys could
recover from the shock of four runs
the side had been retired. They then
got in the game and for seven sue
cessive innings dished out goose eggs
TO the visitors and also sue
ceeded in piling up three runs for
themselves, but in the ninth Weis-
becker walked Fowles and Ashley,
which, combined with one two-bagger
and two singles, netted three more
runs, thereby destroying Clifton s
possibility of even tieing the score.
Weisbecker and Ashly opposed
each other in the box and while Ash
ley outclassed him to some extent, it
was quite evident that he was against
a much heavier aggregation of hit
tiers. Outside of that fatal bad in
ming, which seems to stay with Weis-
becker, the game would have been a
little closer. Ashley's curves were
working well and his control was mag
nificent and added to this was the
brilliant hitting of Mcclellan,
Cramer, O'Brien, Crittenden, getting
two hits each, and Morehead, who
stole away with three.
The infield received coat of tail
ings, which added greatly to the
appearance of the diamond as well
as laying the dust to some extent,
and if the outtield is treated in the
same manner the games will be wit
messed by much larger crowds in the
future.
Clifton and Morenci are now about
evenly matched and a more gentle
manly bunch of ball players never
met on the local diamond, but in
Sundays game a little outcropping
of professional playing occurred
when Bosquet lost his head and i'm
agined that he was dealing death
blow to an OK instead of tagging a
ball player. This is the first per
Torrance of the kind on the local
diamond this season, and one which
the Morenci management at once de-
nounced, as did also the Clifton fans,
who made life miserable during the
remainder of the game for Bosquet
There has been no hard feeling be-
tween the two teams this season and
it is hoped that the unpleasant affair
of last Sunday will be overlooked.
MIR. Bosquet explained the matter to
the umpire by saying that he was a
little excited, assuring him that
there was no previous trouble. Pass
it up boys and try to do better the
next time.
The following is the tabulated
score, printed for the benefit of those
who did not see the game and those
who desire TO NAV if over.

G. L. Coffee, of Fort Thomas, who
is secretary of the Arizona Cattle
Growers Association, spent few
days in Clifton this week He
reports that the Association now
has membership of four hundred
and is growing rapidly. The associa-
tion was formed a little over two
years ago, and is therefore making
very satisfactory growth. The
association has nothing in common
is composed entirely of breeders
and growers of cattle. The object
of the association is to further the
cattle industry along all possible
lines. There are now several i'm
portant matters confronting the
cattle growers of the west, the most
important of which are freight rates
and the leasing of public lands.
1t may not be generally known even
by cattlemen that freight rates
have gradually increased for the
past ten years. and unless the stock
men get together and fight for their
rights Iney Will COuIlllIlC " luCIedSS.
There is no reason to doubt that
a bill viii soon pass congress provid-
ing for the leasing of all public
domain, and it would be wise for
those who are so deeply interested
in the matter to adopt concerted
plan of action to protect their
business. This can only be done
through an organized effort on the
part of those most deeply interested.
For the past ten years or more the
cattlemen have been working for the
railroads, the beef trust and the
commission men, and they have been
skinned to a finish by all of them,
and it now seems that the govern
ment will also relieve them of
small portion of their cutiCle. This
is an age of organization. Almost
all industries are organized for their
own protection. and why should the
cattleman not do likewise? He
wants local legislation and can get
it only by seeing that the industry in
which he is interested is represented
in the territorial legislature, at
least that an influence be brought
to bear which will give him what
he wants.

The Herald this week suggests Guy
LOOMS and Roy Wayland as good ma
terial for the legislature. They are
good men, of course, but the ERA
mas considered that matter closed
for some time past. The Major
stated that he was willing to make
the race against the editor of
the Leader, and as Mr.. Cleaveland is
one of the strongest republicans in
the county, there is no reason to
doubt that he will receive the nomi-
nation. The Major is now suggesting
new men, which shows a weakness
on his part. It looks like he is craw-
fishing. With two editors on the
ticket there would be a nice juicy
campaign.
