 V. l.. Mason of New York spent yes [ tcrday in Phoenix, arriving on the morning train from the south, and lcav- ing this morning for the north. Mr. Mason is vice president of the Dcvcl- opmcnt Company of America. the par ent corporation under which the Tomb stone Consolidated, Imperial Copper, Congress. Poland and other mining companies in this Territory are opcr- ated. IT,, is here on his annual inspcc- ton of the properties. ns he comes | about once year to look over the sit uation from local view point, and generally in the summer time, probably because he can appreciate the Arizona summers better than some people.
 He has visited the Tombstone and Silved Bell, the scene of the Imperial company's operations, and is now cn route ,o the other properties, in which the Development Company of America ! is interested. He will be at the Con gross Friday anl then go on to Pres colt, Poland and other points in the ! vicinity of the hcadwatrrs of the Has sayampa. He was accompanied as far as Phoenix by Mcssrs. F.. B.

than it deserved. There is a feeling
that the courts may not sustain the
verdict in Judge Lands court. He is
known as a jurist who likes to play
to the grandstand and it is claimed,
how truthfully is not known, that he
did not give the trust what President
Roosevelt calls "a square dear at the
trial in excluding evidence which would
have proven that the company did not
know it was receiving a favored rail-
road rate in the instances on which
the indictments We're framed.
The independent critics of the trial
and of the fine are not speaking their
minds out of any sympathy for the
octopus, but out of fear that such legal
actions, whether or not they be upheld,
will cause something of a popular re-
vulsion and thus work an ultimate in
jury to reform.
1t is noticeable that prominent men,
known alike for their honesty and in
dependence, are taking the same view
in both parties. Ex-Representative
John r. Thayer, a Democrat, of wor-
cester, Mass, who maintained himself
several years politically in an over
whelming Republican district, recently
criticized the fine in a public speech.

Stage Westerner Type.
From Everybody's.


Plays of western life have been in
fashion In New York during the past year
an admirable fashion promising much
for the American drama, for it Is out OF
that vast, indefinite west" that the big
story is likely to come. The spirit Of life
there is broader, freer, bigger; the people
are franker in their sins of commission
and not smugly conscious Of their virtues;
they have a keener comprehension of the
real things in this headlong national de-
velopment of ours. Their feet rest more
firmly on the honest soil: their heads are
nearer the stars.

How many English readers who have read

Marie seems to have surprised the Austrian
Judge by her story Of the Hungarian shep-
herd. Stephan Stephanovics. who Is ninety
years old and who sells charms and in
whom she believes. He made the remark,
which we have SO often heard before. that

and encouragement of the governing au-
thorities.
Congress has been very remfss in its treat
ment of the militia. Except in most of the
wars with the Indians and our recent war
with Spain, 1t has been the volunteers and
not the regulars that did most OF the fight
ing-not that the regulars did not fight
well. but because they comprised only a
small portion Of the forces Of the govern
ment. In all the wars the government has
been engaged in it has been handicapped
very greatly by the want Of well organ
lied and trained militia.
Congress very early recognized the need
of an organized militia, and took some
cation. but In the early history of the gov
eminent lack of means made such steps
very small and inadequate for effective
work.
The first law on the subject Is recorded
as curiosity. One section reads as fol-
lows:
Every citizen so enrolled and notified
shall, within six months thereafter. provide
himself with a good musket or f1relock, a
sufficient bayonet and belt. two spare fints
and a knapsack. a pouch, with box there
in to contain not less than twenty-four
cartridges, suited to the bore Of his mus
ket or f1relock, each cartridge to contain
a proper quantity of powder and ball. or
with good rifle. knapsack, shot pouch and
powder horn, twenty balls, suited to the
bore OF his rifle and a quarter of a pound
of powder"
Now that another change has been made
in the arms Of the regulars. once more the
old inequality exists, as the militia has the
Krag and the regulars the new Springfield,
model 1908. 1t Is held by the War Depart
ment that it has no power to issue the new
arms to the militia without congressional
action. The department recognizes the I'M
portance Of exchanging the old Krags Of
the National Guard for the new Spring
fields and is very anxious to do so.
A law Of Congress provides for an annual
national rife match where teams of the
regular army. navy, Marine Corps and the
National Guard compete, and 1t appears
that action should promptly be taken to
put all branches of the service on an equal
ity as regards arms. With the National
Guard using the old Krags it can be read
lily seen it cannot compete on an equality
with the regulars who use the new Spring
fields. The second war with Great Britain
that with Mexico and that with Spain, it
is declared. caught the government without
well-organized militia, and the conse-
Quences were the government was put at
q great disadvantage In each instance The
young men CT the country are now display
ing a. most commendable spirit in entering
heartily and earnestly into the work Of the
National Guard, and nearly all Of the state
governments ore making liberal appropria-
tons for tie better organization of the
guard.
