Records Of the war department show
that IN the civil war the total number OF
those killed on both sides was 10000.
Comparing this with the number Of thoze
who are killed I'm the United States on
the basis OF the census of 1900 we find
that in these piping times of peace the
country kills in four years $4,000 more
persons than all who fell in the battle or
died from wounds on both sides In the
War OF the Rebellion. our peaceful voca-
tions cost more lives every two days than
all we lost I'm our war with Spain. 1t has
been pointed out that with each year the
coal fields OF Pennsylvania furnish an in

HON. HENRY C. ADAMS.

Arizonians will hear with sorrow of Henry c. Adams of Wisconsin. MT. Adams was a true friend of this terri tory. He was a member of the party of nine representative who toured Ari- zona and New Mexico last fall to pre- pare themselves for the statehood struggle which was to occupy so much of the time of the approaching session. Like most of his colleag gues on that tour he brought with him neither sym pathy nor prejudice. He knew little Of the territories al first hand but he was convinced by two weeks careful ob servation that the proposed jointure was wrong.
 While here he made no extravagant promises of service in behalf of Ari- zona but when the time came he ren- dered noble and conspicuous service.
 He was one of the triumvirs of the insurrection against the house Organi- zation. The others were his collea gues. Hon. Joseph W. Babcock of the Third Wisconsin district and Hon Edward s.
 
 The speech of MT. Adams in protest against the unfair and rough-shod methods of the house was one of the ablest delivered in the statehood de- bate. No doubt it was the most eff fective. It was based upon his obser- vations of a few months before in the territories and it abounded in valuabe information regarding conditions here. Though it did not change the purpose of the house organization; though MT. Adams could not then hope it would have such an effect, it was doubtless of great service in enlightening senators who had not enjoyed the opportunity 10 study the territories at close range.
 MT. Adams was serving his second term from the Second Wisconsin (Mad- ison) district, having received a plu- rality Of more than 1000 votes out of total vote of less than 10000. This plurality was twice that given when he was elected to his first term.
 MT. Adams was not quite fifty-six years of age. He had held various of ficiaI positions in the state govern ment before his election to congress and had twice been a member of the legislature His health for some time had not been robust but he was at all times cheerful Those who recall him on the occasion Of his recent visit re- member him as a pleasant conversa- tionalist

A SUNDAY REFLECTION"

The Arizona Star, a week after its publication of the mangled letter from the president to pr. Rodgers, follow ing the discovery of the mutilation, publishes the letter in its entirety. which the Star says lis a much strong CT document" than the mutilated let ter. The Star further says that these paragraphs which make it stronger were omitted for the reason that it was believed that there would be no breach of etiquette" in leaving them out. But if they make the letter stronger and more to the purpose of lne jointists why this needless en- crOachment upon etiquette?
 But still the Star does not give us all of this remarkable and historic corre- spondence in its completeness. Wou not that letter from Dr. Rodgers to the president add to the symmetry and strength oi it?
 In the same number of the Star in which amend is made for the mutila- tion of the presidential letter nearly week before there is a weekly jour nalistic feature of the editorial Dsge entitled Sunday Reflections" It is composed of quotations from eminent divines, religious philosophers, theo- logians of repute and other godIy men. Interspersed among these bits of wis dom are observations by the editor in which is pointed out to erring nor tals the way to the higher life, means by which the spiritual may be separ- ated from the dross, so that none of it will go to waste in the tailings. Among these Sunday Reflections" is the fol- lowing; "A journal which will misIead

 This gem may have been written by St. Chrysostom. but we are inclined to think that it was penned by the editor of the Star while he was en- gagged in repentant Reflections" upon the course of the Star the previous week in misleading the public by sup pressing material facts and the conse- quent commission of a public offense.
