DEMOCRATIC cENCTRAl CON-
 mITTEE TAKES A WISE COURSE.

We take a great deal of pleasure in congratulating the members Of the democratic county central committee for their action taken Saturday even ing whereby the question of appoint ing delegates to the territorial con vention which meets in Bisbee on September 9th was re-considered and the matter of electing delegates to this convention was left in the hands of the democrats in each precinct.
 While it has been generally conced- ed that Mark Smith will be the unani- nous choice of that convention as the democratic standard bearer for dele gate to congress, and while 1t is true that the time is short for the holding of primaries or mass meetings and nominating county convention for the selection of Cochise county's appor- tionment of forty delegates, the tnal action of the central committee in leaV- ing the selection of these forty dele gates directly in the hands of the dem ocrats, without any attempt to usurp the power or choice of the people, IS simon pure democracy and stands ou' all the brighter when we compare tnls method with that of the action of the republican county central committee 1T the same room just a week ago, wner the appointment of delegates to th' territorial republican convention wal delegated to three men.
 Jt is always the wisest course t' leave the election of te5eSates to an convention directly in che hands o the people Such action aiiays an suspicion that might be attached U the motives of the committee D taking upon themselves the authorat to appoint delegates and has the fu ther purpose of creating enthusiasr among the rank and file of the part!
 While there will be no contest the territorial democratic conventio as to the nominee for congress tn' convention will have the duty of ma ing a platform of principles on whlc the party will solicit votes from u people. This duty is even or mo importance than the selection of ca didate. Cochise county will have nes ly one-fourth of the delegates in U territorial convention and these de
 gates should have some instructio
 from the democrats of the coun touching the territorial platform
 Opposition to joint statehood nil necessarily be the prominent plank
 the democratic party, but there other matters which should rece
 attention. There should be a decla

 The transportation of relief sup plies from April 18th to May 23rd, com puted at lowest tariff rates over the Southern Pacific company, Union Pa cific Railroad company, Oregon Short Line railroad, and the Oregon Railroad and Navigation company, amounted to s445, 10000, representing 1903 full iess ,hsn ss foad E, sbioms5fs s5ast s,s 4,s,s n does not include business handled by the express companies, of which there were quite a good many cars on which the railroad company received no com Densation.
 Much more than this has been done by the Southern Pacific company since dates named, so that their entire con- tribution runs way beyond $1,OOO,OOO'
 Before accurate or adequate intor- nation could be- gotten by the San Francisco office to President Harri' man he was rushing by special train to the scene of disaster. For several weeks he maintained headquarters III his car at Oakland pier, surrounded by the operating and traffic officers oi the road. He was in close and con stant personal touch with the ctvi and military authorities, relief com mittees etc, attended several com mittee meetings daily, and took prominent and helpful part in ever! movement for the rehabilitation of Sal Francisco.
 There was nothing that the com panv's, officers could think of tha would prove helpful that they did no do. Neither men or means were spal ed to accomplish the company's ot

 this was done under the most tryin
 circumstances and difficult conditions to the credit of the Southern Pacifi

SOUTHERN PACIFIC
 AT SAN FRANCISCO.

On the occasion of the great San Francisco disaster the entire resources of the Southern Pacific company were employed to their utmost in saving ant relieving the people. They were the first to order by wire, from adjacent cities, car loads Of food supplies for free distribution. They threw wide open their gates, and passengers were carried free on thei; ferry steam. CTS, which never stopped running from San Francisco to Oakland pier. They ran steamers around the water front picking up all refugees congregated land pier the people were carried free to whatever point they could care for themselves or be cared for whether it was Berkeley. Cal. or Bos- ton. Mass: Portland Ore, or Portland, Maine. Within ten days the Southern Pacific company carried free 224,OG9 passengers. The value of which, computed at lowest rates for the class of service rendered, amounted to S540, ,0S3.69, and this covers only the earnings of the line west of Fl Paso.
 Canvass, of accommodations in the interior of .the state was made that refugees might be properly directed. Canvass of avenues of employment was made by wiring large industries that employment might be provided. Information bureaus were established at nine points in the burned district of San Francisco, which were served by horseback riders and automobiles tive to train service, relief work, in formation about finding people and general public information, including statement of accommodations for re- lief at outside cities. Inquiries from eastern cities by the thousands from eastern friends regarding missing peo- ple were answered as far as possible, the officers using all the avenues at their command.
 Transportation for relief committees, hospital corps, physicians and nurses was arranged for on large scale be tween adjacent cities and San Fran cisco. The state health board was given transportation for it's employees in the sanitary service. Transports ton of relief supplies was given pre- cedence over all other trains. Nearly all were run on passenger train time Milk, bread, etc, which were badly needed. were brought in free in bag gage cars.
 Gasoline for automobiles early be came exhausted, and large number O
 machines in the service of emergenc!
 hospitals, physicians, military and civi
 authorities and relief committees wer
 tied up. The Southern Pacific com
 pany furnished for these machine
 every drop of gasoline in its stores
 In addition, it wired to nearby citie
 for all automobile parts which wer

Denatured Alcohol for Use in the Arts

The demand for tax-free de.
natured alcohol is well nigh univer-
sal. 1t would supplant gasoline
and kerosene in the production of
power and light and great good
would result, especially to the
farmers of the United States. Five
gallons of alcohol can be produced
from a bushel of corn, and it can be
manufactured. denatured and sold
for less than gasoline. 1t is far
superior to gasoline in every respect,
but the Standard Oil gang will moi
permit its use.

Representative James A. Golden
of New York, made statement be-
fore the House commission on judic-
larry last Monday which threw more
light on campaign contributions by
New York life insurance companies.
He said: ''Why it is we'll conceded
that to be senator at Albany was
worth anywhere from $4,000 to
100000 a year, and that the money
came largely from insurance COM
panies. This is no secret. Every
New York man knows it. l Know
it we'll" 1t is quite safe to say that
the rascality of the great life insur-
ance companies of New York will
never be fully known. They fur
nished a good share Of the $4,000

chased an election.

How Not to Say Liar.

The President and several
United STATS Senators and one ex-
senior might have avoided the
strenuous times which they ex-
perienced during the closing days
of the rate bill in the Senate, by
observing the diplomacy Of the
Quaker who was called upon to
deal with a notorious liar. The
Quaker said to him: Il don't
wish to call thee liar, but if the
Mayor should say to me, Friend,
show. me the biggest liar in the
town. ! should say, William, the
Mayor wishes to see thee.

Church Seeks Injunction.

Decatur, ILL.,, May 19.--In court the
lawyers representing the factions OF
the Cumberland Presbyterian church
began arguments on the plea for an
injunction to prevent the Cumberland
Presbyterian general assembly from
concentrating union with the Pres
byterian church. AT the same time
the assembly resumed business, most
of the commissioners being in Their
seats. The fact that the men of both
parties participated heartily in the de
votional services indicated the general
GOOD feeling prevailing.

Does the End Justify the Means2

Mr.. Secretery Shaw's circular Of
April l4tn, explaining why he loaned
the gold Of the United States Treas
ury to certain banks in New York
without authority Of law, has called
forth from the National city Bank
Rockefeller's bank to which the old
custom house in New York was Civ
en- some years ago, virtually as re-
ward for contributions to the Repub-
lican campaign fund-an earnest
and elaborate defence. Disregard
ing all legal and equitable consider
atoms, the bank basis its defence OF
the Secretary of the Treasury on the
ground that 1--WE (the bankers) were
saved a strain that might nave been
extremely serious" In other words,
the argument is that the end .justi-
fies the means if any advantage re-
suits to the banks, whether the
means per Sc were lawful or unlaw-
full, good or evil.
Mr.. Shaw's excuse for lending the
Governments gold without interest
to the banks was that "the money
would be Immediately used in the
engagement Of gold abroad for ship
ment to the United States;" and the
Rockefeller bank says that it result
ed in advantage to the favored banks,
and was therefore right and proper.
Mr.. Shaw, backed by the President,
las again and again, granted special
favors of this kind to banks in New
York.
The statute which authorizes the
deposit Of public funds in national
repositories does not contemplate
the use Of public money in bank
to "save it from a strain that may be
extremely serious" by enabling it to
engage gold, silver or copper abroad
for shipment to this country. All it
designs is the safe-keeping of the
money. To use that statute as an
excuse for granting bounties, in the
shape Of enormous loans without in
terest, to banks that contribute to
campaign funds, is criminal abuse
oftpower which would result in the
impeachment and punishment Of the
offender if his party were not indi-
rectly beneficiary Of the abuse.
But the idea now is, that whatever
helps the party in power to gather
corruption funds is right-that the
end justifies the means. There is
no crime that may not be turned in
to virtue upon the same principle;
yet that is the cardinal principle of
the present administration. The
Presidents scheme of confiscating
overgrown fortunes and all other for
tunes rests upon the same principle.
If you can rightfully apply public
money to private uses without just
compensation, you may with equal
propriety apply all private property
to public uses without any compen.
sation. Shawism and Rooseve.tism
meet and mingle in the definitions
of what has been termed robbery
and anarchy.
