what.
1t is an easy thing to abuse the
mining COmpd mics and Judge Aims
worth may gain some votes thereby,
but a man who can see only the faults
of the companies who employ thous-
andS of labOrerS at high wages would
hardly be the man to send to con-
| gress. There is no likelihood of his
/ being elected. The people prefer to
send a man to congress who is broad
enough, and big enough to represent
/ ALL of the interests of this great
and growing country.
He quoted some government
authority as stating that the limit of
population for Arizona and New
/ Mexico was one million people. The
man who originally made such a
statement should be examined as to
his sanity.
Only few years ago it would have
been bold man to predicted that
Los Angeles would at the present
time haze $4,000 people, but she now
claims quarter of a million, and
there are more than one mil
lion people in Southern Cali
tornia. The man who prophesies
that Arizona alone will have five
million people in 100 years will tome
near hitting the mark. With the
| opening of the mine with the build
! ing of railroads, with the tremend-
Gus irrigating enterprises under way,
there is no telling what the future
holds in store for this vast empire
that the Almighty has so generously
endowed with mineral wealth and
fertile valleys. Why, the valley of the
| Colorado alone is capable of support
ing millions of people, to say nothing
of the other vallies and broad mesas
of the territory.
He is a man of brilliancy. and
power, but like all speakers he
selects his most favorable points for
discussion. He failed to inform his
audience that New Mexico does not
/ have the Australian ballot, and as
sure as 66 delegates to the CONSULT
tional convention will control A, that
| system OF halloting, which is a safe
guard from fraud, will not be adopted
! by the proposed new constitution.
Col. Tom Fitch's lecture was as
usual most entertaining. The colonel
/ is getting along in years, but his
mind IS as clear and vigorous as in
the old days, .swhen he was every
where recognized as the peerless sill
( ver-tonguetl orator of the west. His
speech was most humorous and enter
| tanning throughout, and one of the
best parts of it was his explanation
OF his sudden switch on the statehood

1t seems that Judge Fonda, lead
ing democrat of Stafford precinct,
who last week filed statement with
the board of supervisors charging
the democratic county convention
with fraud, has not appealed to the
district court for an Injunction to
prevent the dmocratic ticket from
being printed on the ballot. The
people will therefore have the privi-
Iege OF selecting from three sets of
candidates when preparing their
ballots. The republicans, are pleased
that their friends, and also old time
political enemies, are spared the
embarrassment of further publicity
in the allegations of fraud which
were made against them by promi-
nent men and members of their own
party. The republicans prefer to
meet the enemy on the battlefield in
a fair and opened fight, without
handicap of any kind.

The ERA is this week the victim of

The Clifton Herald very appropri-
ately remarked last week that Presi-
dent Kimball was "a noble gentle
man, but somewhat impetuous. :"
This possibly accounts for his sudden
departure for Salt Lake, where he
will doubtless remain until after the
campaign closes. 1t will be remem-
bered that in the democratic con-
vention the president remarked that
if the valley precincts could not con-
troll in one way they would in an
other. Just what he meant by the
remark is still bothering a good many
democrats, but it will all come out in
the family wash on the 9th of No
vember.

One of the political mysteries of
the week was the sudden disappear
ance of Col. Ben Crawford. The re-
port was generally circulated that he
had gone away on mining business,
but the chances are that he will be
accompanied home by the Hon. c.
NJ. Shannon, who usually comes in
about election to see that the demo-
cratic machine is in perfect working
order. He is expected to arrive a
little earlier than heretofore. He
will be needed not only in Clifton.
Morenci, Metcalf and Duncan, but
also in the valley precincts.

The Guardian, which, aside from
the Herald, may be considered
''The Leading Democratic Paper of
the County," has been compelled to
'fess up that Wiley E. Jones, demo-.
cratic wheel-hoss, is not giving his
undivided attention to the support of
the democratic ticket. The editor of
the Guardian makes the statement
apparently as a duty, and also with
sincere regret. The Guardian has
always been a champion of Mr..
Jones, and his lukewarmness towards
the ticket has evidently cut the edi-
tor too deep for words. Mr.. Jones
has heretofore been the hot air
artist of the party, and without his
assistance on>the stump it will proba-
bly, be necessary to import some
spellbinders in order to re-awaken
an interest. True, Will Webb is an
orator of the first water, but being
on the ticket he has 'troubles of his
own, Gas it were, and will be, until
the campaign is over. Jones's strong
holt has been on the interesting sub
ject of Harmony" which just at the
present moment is a theme worthy
of much calculation. His eloquence
will be sadly missed in the cam
paign.
FRANCE has recently last another
submarine boat, and with it the full

proved a perfect success as a diver,
and is still at the bottom of the sea.
SENATOR BURTON, of Kansas, is
now serving his time in prison. His
offending was in accepting money
from a get-rich-quick concern in ST.
Louis that was having trouble in
promulgating their literature through
the U. S. mails. 1t is alleged that
Burton used his influence as U. S.
senator with the postal authorities
in behalf of his clients. His punish
ment is deserved, and yet there are
others whose offending has been
more far reaching, but who continue
to wear the senatorial toga. Posi-
bly, Burton's downfall may prove a
warning to others.

If Only for a Day.

When Old Scrooge returned from
his spiritual tour Of London and
awole in his bare bed chamber with
a new warmth in his flinty, shriveled
heart, the change was unconsciously
manifest in his face. One of the
finest touches in all the writing of
Dickens is the response of a CHEEKY
MERRY Christmas" to that look on
the part of two street urchins who
encountered Scrooge on the morn
ing OF the day.
Few of us are as hard as Scrooge.
But all of us can feel somewhat of
the renewal which transformed him.
And this is the day. The stores are
crowded fun. The street cars are
iammed. The bakers, the groeers,
the market men, the dealers in little
hemlocks and slender cedars, the
postmen, the express wagons, are
rushed as they were never rushed
before. 1t is a time of knocking
elbows, humping heads, confusion,
hurry, worry, much to do, and only
a day for the doing Of it.
And a proof that the Christmas
spirit still lives is to be found i'm
the good nature with which we of
this blessed year 1906 endure it all.
Washington crowds are proverbially
good natured. But it is much 10 be
doubted if any crowd of Washing
tOnians ever endured SO much pull
ing at each other, so much jamming
into narrow doors, so much wading
into street cars, with so much good
nature as today. The conductor
who was handed a ten-dullar bill did
not lose his temper this morning.
The clerk who has stood the strain
of twelve hours a day for a fort
night has an unfDrced smile this
afternoon.
So the air has been full of Christ
mas and we have been the better for
it, as we are and will be always the
better for letting the sweetness of
our natures crowd our money-seel-
ing into the background, if only for
a day.

The Woman Clerk.

Superfiuous. though it is TO per-
sons acquainted with the practical
operation of executive departments,
the statement from the Fourth AS
sistant Postmaster General favora-
bic 10 women in the classified SER
vice has distinct value.
Three considerations, recurrent
and insistent, operate TO diseredlt
the woman clerk. They are: Her
inability to do certain kinds Of
work, such as that requiring inces-
SAINT travelling. for example; her
over-capacity for details; the desire
OF man 10 get her job.
Not one of these imperils her
value to the departments, The sec
ond, indeed. gives her a value to the
Government service beyond many
men. She has yet prOve-save in eX-
tremely rare cases-her capacity to
originate ideas and her willingness
tC work, as the best men do, with
out regard for the end of the work
day. But she has incontrovertibly
proven herself competent as the
be { men for the great mass of de-
partmental labor and indispensable
to the service
