IT WAS ENOUGH TO KICK ABOUT.

IT WAS ENOUGH TO KICK ABOUT.
 There is a threatened severance of the diplomatic relations between Tue son and Globe, the cordiale entente having been strained by an article in the Tucson Star denounc!ng the flour ishing mining camp as a nest of anar- chists, the Paterson or the Barcelona of Arizona. The Globe Silver Belt. be- fore proceeding to extreme measures, desires to inquire whether the Star is the reflector of public opinion in Tue son or merely the moulder of public opinion. In the former case something will be heard to drop.
 The Silver Belt is inclined to take a liberal view, and to ascribe the Stars feeling toward Globe to the fact that Gila county outdid all the Arizona counties and Globe all the Arizona towns, in sitting down on joint state hood, casting a ninety-five per cent vote against it.
 Without appearing to involve our selves in this imbroglio, we can easily understand why the Star is chafed. if not actually raw and bleeding over the result at Globe.
 Before the election the Star amid it's many reasons why statehood could not fail. enumerated the socialists, who. the Star had definite information, would support it to a man.

ner socialist vote and the most meager for statehood. No wonder the Star was jarred and felt that a socialist without any redeeming quality, was only an archist.
 Still, the result in Gila county can- not be laid wholly to the socialists, for the unofficial returns show that many of the republicans and democrats with out any socialistic tendency were most toward the statehood prop osition.

IHt GAMBLING SUBJECT
 HtARU IN CHURCH
A Well Attended Meeting at the Gen. tral Methodist Church. The Practice Attacked With Moderation.

There was a good attendance last night at the Central Methodist church South. where it had been widely an- nounced that the question of gam bling would be discussed. The au- dience was made up largely of men, the threatening weather preceding the meeting having kept many of the la dies at home.
 There were several men in the au- dience connected with the gambling profession. They were shown the greatest courtesy. and the pastor. MT. Govette. renewed his invitation to any who might hold views in favor of gambling to be heard. They were assured that whatever they might have to say would be given consideration and that they had not been invited to the meeting to be made the subject of attack.
 Mir. Govette said that many of the men engaged in the gambling business in Phoenix were good men outside of that business. and he trusted that if gambling should be abolished they would remain in the city, for they would be valuable citizens.
 There was an address by Dr. Hughes on the morals of the question. This subject was further pursued by Judge Mccormick. Both speakers were mod crate and refrained from what might be regarded as an attack upon the character of any gambler.
 Eugene Brady O'Neill spoke on the business side of the question. show ing that the city would be financially benefited by the abolition of gambling. There was an interesting musical pro gram. consisting of songs by the large chorus choir and solos by Professor Francis Hughes.

OUR NEW GAS STOVE.

The new gas stove is our delight It brings us blessings day and night; It abrogates the ancient rule, And keeps the summer-kitchen cool; It furnishes the only means Whereon the cook securely leans There is no kindling- wood tO split, No sootv., recreant pipes to lit. No Juggling mesquite through the door, No spilling ashes on the floor Since happily. it comes to pass We light our household fires with gas The good wife smiles and scarcely
 feels
 The weight of three diurnal meals; The well-fed kids make no complaint The husband-man becomes a saint; His roasts are tender. juicy, prime, And ready lin the nick of time" His biscuits are no longer hard And baneful blends of flour and lard, But naky. delicate and white As snow that falleth in the night; And pies. compounded for his sake, Are good as mother used to make" So if We stew. or bake. or broil. This wonder-stove makes light the
 toil:
 The high expenses it abates, And foils the fuel syndicates. 'Iis simple-perfect if you will The triumph of inventive skill!

asserts that the new naturalization
law has practically no effect upon

opinion says:
In Kansas any male 21 years
old,or any male person of that
age who has declared his inten-
tion to become a citizen, who has
resided in this state six months
and in his election precinct thirty
days, except rebels. convicted fel-

only restriction which the federal
law imposes upon the states right
to regulate suffrage is the one for
bidding the state to deny the right

Who Has Right TO Vote.

Topeka. Kans. Sept. 19.-For
some time the Republican state
central committee has been re-
ceiving letters from people regard
ing the qualifications for voting
in Kansas. The questions arose
over the recent naturalization law
passed by congress. The COM
. mittee decided to have an opin-
ion prepared by attorneys and
this was given out today.
@ The opinion says that congress
reserves the right to make rules
for naturalization and decides
what shall constitute citizenship,
and the state is given the right to
decide what qualifications shall be
necessary for voting. Conrgess

is entitled to vote for a congress

The Telephone-lhe Voice RaIlwsy.

Like the institution to which is
thus compared the Telephone ha S
its turn stile onto which a voice
is received from any one Of fifty
to three hundred thousand wires
according to size of place. and
redirected onto another one of the
fifty to three hundred thousand.
The Telephone switchboard is a
WONDERFULLY intricate yet accu.
rate piece of mechanism.
When people began to see the
possibilities of DR.. Bells inven.
tion it was simply as a means of
communicating between two points
"a telephone here, a telephone
there,an a wire connecting them,
but in 1877 Thomas B. Doolittle,
still with the Bell telephone Com.
pany constructed the first crude
switch board at Bridgeport, Con.
Inecticut. In this switchboard
were brought together twenty
lines. From this crude effort the
multiple switchboard came into
being the switchboard of today,
which in one of the big cities,
contains as many as 10000 lines
and requires 200 operators.
The principle of the multiple
switchboard is this. The wires
from every Telephone connected
with an exchange are branched
when they meet the switchboard
and connections are from them
run to each operators position, as
it is called. In the face of the
switchboard you will see row
after row of little sockets or jack.
