FOR HOMES AND FIREsIDEs.

The farmers, the taxpayers the bHsi-
ness men, the wage workers of this
city and valley will be given the op-
portunity to say tomorrow whether or
not they desire joint statehood with
New Mexico.
There is not the slightest probability
that there viii be joint statehood;
that there will be even a respectable
declaration in favor of it. The only
thing to be gained by an overwhelming
vote against it is to bury it so deep
under popular disapprovaI that It will
be quickly forgotten.
We believe that by this time the
voters of Maricopa county are brought
to a full realization of all the evils
which lay in the monstrous PROPOSE
ion. They were even so apparent
rom the beginning that it is strange
hat any man could have been deIuded
or an instant.
We are equally surprised that any
nave been deceived by the arguments
n favor of jointsre. We are about
. make sweeping statement. but a
rue one. We do not believe that one
word spoken from the stump or one
word written in the interest of jointure
las been honestly spoken or written
We believe that the speakers and the
writer's have been fully aware that
hey have been advising the voters of
his county to accept a calamity. That
here are honest jointists ameng US
We admit, but we do not believe that
me man among their leaders is honest
Their arguments do not possess the
1erit of being specious or skillful.
We have heard only the blatant cry or
ne demagogue against the corpora
ons. who have no more to do with
his question than the humblest owner

The corporations do not want joint

GU, the voters, do"
They detail the crimes of the cor
orations against the smaller taxpayer
nd tell him that now is his oppor-
nifty for relief, but they neglect to
form him in detail how the relief is

We have gone over all this before
1T will allude to it once more. The
'intists allege that the corporations
Iade their share of taxation by cor
Ipting the territorial legislature and
)unty assessors and county boards Of
iualization. This accusation has ref
ence to the railroads and the larger
ming corporations. It is charged by
jointists of New Mexico that the
me condition exists there, where the
ilroad interests are greater and more
Imerous than they are here, and
here the greatest mining corporation
the west, the Colorado Fuel and
on company, has control of the i'm
ense coal fields of that territory.
If it is true that these deplorable
nditions of corruption and bribery

intists aver. how will they be rene

Platform as Adopted
 Fairbanks. Miners
From Tanana Teller

From Tanana Teller
 CLEARY CITY, June 13.-The fol- lowing platform was adopted by the miners convention held in Fairbanks some weeks ago. and whose nominee, Thomas Gale, will shortly tour Alaska in his own behalf.
 1.-Resolved, We favor the establish ment of territorial form of govern- ment at the earliest possible date.
 2.-We favor such changes in the present mining laws as more clearly meet the requirements and conditions at present existing in Alaska, the most important of which are:
 a. By amendment of the power of of attorney act as it applies to the stalk ing of mineral ground.
 b. By provision requiring specific amount of work to be performed on claims before legal record can be ob- tained.
 c. By the abolishment of the associ- ation claim. d. By more specific definition of what constitutes discov- cry of mineral as applicable particular ly to placer mining ground.
 3.-We favor such legislation as shall protect and maintain the fishing indus try.
 Ave favor the extension of the present cable and telegraph system to all populated districts of Alaska, and the building of a public wagon road from some point on the Yukon river to the coast.
 5.-We favor reduction of the pre- sent rate of taxation on railroads.
 6.-We favor the establishment of lighthouses and such other safeguards as are necessary for the protection of coastwise shipping.
 I've favor the further extension of the public school system, and just and equitable distribution of the funds provided therefor.

ALASKA ROAD
 WORK PLANS

SEATTLE, June This seasons work to be done by the government in the improvement and establishm ent of roads and trails in Alaska is expected to be under way by July 1. Capt. Tils- bury. who will have charge of the work in the western portion of Alaska, will leave Seattle for the North tomorrow, and will be followed in a few days by Major Richardson, who will superintend the improvements in and around Val deg, Fairbanks and the Nome district.
 When interviewed last night by re- porter for the Post Intelligencer, Mai or Richardson said:
 ''T The work projected for the coming twelve months will involve the expend- iture of something like $200, ,0OO. Our preliminary plans for the summers work have been completed and as soon as we can get on the ground actual work will be started on the various pro- jects.
 These include some work on what is known as the portage road across Prince of Wales island from Chumley sound to Hetta inlet. From $40,OOO to $50, 900 will be expended on the Valdez-Fair- banks trail and on the roads in the vi- cinity of Fairbanks. We will also do work around Rampant and cxpend $20.- 900 in the Nome district. Then there is a lot of minor work to be done in var ious other parts of Alaska.
 Our supplies are there now. and we will take with us a number of skilled men such as foremen and superintend- ents. We will secure our laborers in the vicinity where the work is to be done.
 Upon our arrival there we will press the work vigorously, so as to accomplish all possible before the winter sets in. and our principal aim will be to get 2 good mail trail thru Fairbanks and into Nome."

ORCHARD, A PRODUCT AND TYPE.
iillak.

Orchard, the Idaho dynamiter, and
general murderer for the Miners Union,
is at once a product and type, and OF
a sort that cannot be stamped out too
quickly, nor too absolutely. When the
system of unionism goes to the length
of maintaining such creatures for such
purposes as were assigned to him, and
which he performed with all criminal
zealot's avidity and despatch and cum
ming, it is time the country took up the
matter of labor amalgamations, sitted
their prospectuses to finality and de-
clared war. social and commercial, upon
the men that subscribe to such doc
trines and pracions. Unions are all
right and often essential, for the
perpetuation of correct organic condi-
tions of labor as against the encroach-
ments of sordid and eXacting capital
but the deliberateness and sanguinary
nature of the combine to which he
owed allegiance and rendered the most
abiectI sersice, Is 30 apparent. that
there is nothing LETT to the communi'
ties affected, but to invoke repri-al-
that are, perhaps, not statutory, but
none-the-less necessary and certainly
more effective. And, in passing. it is
but lust to say, that the law, or public
sentiment. or such other agency as gov
ern the relative conditions between the
employer and employed, and especially
in the mining sections of the coast,
need revising and amending to a point
where the unions shall have cause to
abandon their reckless and murderous
policies, in Difference to juster and
fairer treatment at the hands Of the
mine owners and kindred employers
The later have good deal to their dis
credit in the past and even at present
and are subject to any limit Of criticism
and regulation at the hands Of the
courts and society in general, and the
early adjustment Of the blunders and
impositions of the employing class in
this relation. will have the prompter
and more salutary effect in riddin2 the
,world Of such things as the Orchards.

farm bitches, prepare land to receive

Experience throughout the arid

to irrigated lands is lack of drain

the ground water, which brings
with it the salts dissolved from the
soil; capillarity brings this water
to the surface where it evaporates,
the salts to accumulate until all
vegetation is destroyed. The only
insurance against this is proper
drainage, but anything-as economy
in the use of water and through
cultivation-wh will check the
raise of ground water or lessen
