There Is many an enter prise nowadays employing labor, skilled and unskilled, where the em- ploye draws good pay regularly while tine employer is losing day after day until forced into bankruptcy. The ay- craze workingman has little to com plain of in these days of eight hours regulations and good wages. while for the capitalist and employer conditions are growing harder every day. There is a limit to this phase of prosperity and a spell of hard times, of general unemployment may teach the dis satisfied a lesson that will fall heav- fly not only upon those working to bring about this reaction but also up- on the decent and intelligent work ingmen and their families.

THE BsBEE DAILY REVIEW BSBEE ARIZONA TUESDAY MORNING JULY e

The organizers of the Western Fed eration of Miners in Bisbee succeed ed in sending large number of men away from their families and their work in the mines; the only result that can be possibly hoped for in Douglas by these men is the same as that in Bisbee. The mining companies in Bisbee were applauded throughout the territory because of their firm stand against the Western Fedora tion; they were loyally supported by the business men of Bisbee who were badly hurt in loss of business. These same companies may not be expected to adopt a different policy towards the Western Federation in Douglas to the one pursued in Bisbee. They will stand for the "open shop" condition of peace and prosperity in Douglas as they did in Bisbee.

It is reprted that the Western Fed ecaion of Miners has temporarily transferred its base of attack from Bisbee to Douglas; efforts are being made to oraganize the smeltermen Whether Haywood ct al. are guilty of the Steunenberg murder or not, does not have the slightest bearing on the fact that the Western Federation is in the hands of dangerous element, and should not be given any recogni- tion There are thousands of good men in the federation, but they have allowed the worst element to get con trol and run the organization.

A SAMPLE OF TARIFF ROBBERY.

According to the New York World the customs officials there have not yet got over the shock they expert enced a short time ago when they went to hold up and rob a passenger on one of the big liners returning from Europe The passenger had in his trunk 20OO gold-cased watches on which the customs officials were fig uring the duty when they were noti- fled the watches were American made, and not, therefore, subject to duty. Every one of the timepieces was ex- smined and found to be as the pas senger represented. Thc Ns5 York World says:
 Every single timepiece bore the serial number and private marks of the famous Elgin, WaItham and Key stone products. These companies, with the Crescent Watch Case com pany, form what is known as the watch trust, and when the passenger who brought the watches to this country reached the establishment of c. A. Keene, the welI-known anti trust jeweler, at 1S0 Broadway. he had an interesting story to tell of the 2o0O watches that had worried the customs officials.
 '.They are watches that are sold in this country by dealers under the thumb of the trust for s20 apiece, but the Keene agent picked them up in the various European towns at such a figure that they will be placed on sale in the Keene store at sSs5 per watch.
 For long time Mir. Keene has cast about for a way to circumvent the trust, which has forbidden job bers in America to sell him their pro ducts, as he insisted on selling below the price the trust set on their watch es. Finally he hit on the scheme of sending agents to Europe and reim- porting the watches. The trust heard of this and tried to retaIiate by cut ting off the European dealers who sold to Keene's agents, but finally they had to give in, and the New York trustbuster won the battle"
 That. kind reader. is what the Ding ley tariff does for us; 1t enables pro tected American manufacturers to make Americans pay s2O for watch that Is sold by retail dealers in Europe for ss. The London dealer pays about s5 for the same watch that you have to pay s2o for in New York. Chicago or Douglas And 1t Is the same all along the line. The Dingley tariff is responsible for the fact that the American people are forced to pay

OKLAHOMA AND ARIZONA STATEHOOD.

President Roosevelt has taken a step that indicates an intention to set aside the constitution adopted by the people of Oklahoma-he has ordered : census taken Of a rortica of the pew state. The purpose of this census is to determine whether or not the con stitutional convention accomplished a gerrymander that seriously injures the republican party in the new state by creating a new county line in such a way as to give the counties to the democrats. There is really no excuse for this census. The enabling act says that provision shall be made for the establishment of a system of pub lie schools and the president is us- ing this as an excuse for the census, stating that he will make a search ing investigation and, incidentally, as- certain how the republicans are cheat ed by the distrieting provisions of the constitution On the admission of all other states congress has decided whether or not the proposed consti- tuition conflicts with the constitution of the United States; but the republi- can judges of Oklahoma have decided that the president must decide the question if the constitution complies with the enabling act, and the fact that this census was ordered a short while after this decision was rendered is strong evidence that an understand ing had been reached between the president and the Oklahoma repubIi- cans, in which the president will ar bitrarily set aside the constitution and keep the new state out of the union.
 It is contemptibIe trick, but it looks very much as if it was going to be played. If it is done, the whole statehood question will come up again.
 Apropos, it is whispered around Phoenix and Tucson by men who were  the leaders in the joint statehood fight last fall, that a bill is already being prepared that will create a state of Arizona and New Mexico de spite the opposition that was reg istered against the scheme last fall by the voters, and it is thought that the Oklahoma fight has given the admin istration encouragement to run the merger over the people. That there Is some such plan on foot there is reason to believe. If it does come up, Arizona should have as trong lobby at Washington to represent its inter ests.

JUSTICE TO ALL.coNcERNEo MUST BE THE RULE.

The spirit animating many mem bers of the Western Federation of Miners in session at Denver is re- yealed by the advocacy of a change in the preamble of the constitution of the organization. Thus far this pre- amble has read that the avowed ob- iect of the association is: "To pro- mote and maintain friendly relations between miners and miIlmen and their employees" It is proposed to strike this out and to substitute the following anarchistic pronunciamen- to: Whereas, the present preamble to the constitution of the Western Federation of Miners is, in many of it's clauses, contradictory of the truth inscribed on our membership cards, viz: Wealth belongs to the producer Thereof; and
 Whereas. we realize it to be utter ly impossible to promote and main tain friendly relations between our selves and our employers under exist ing conditions; and
 Whereas, in view of the facts it is time for such a preamble to be rele- gated to the scrap pile of forgotten superstitions; therefore, be it
 Resolved, That the present pream- ble be discarded, and that the follow ing be substituted for it:
 We hold that there is a class strug- gle in society and that this struggle is caused by the economic conditions
 "we affirm the economic condition of the producer to be that he is ex- plotted of the wealth he produces. be- ing allowed barely sufficient for his elementary necessities.
 We hold that the class struggle will continue until the producer is recognized as the sole master of his product.
 ewe assert that the work class and il alone can and must achieve its own. emancipation.
 We hold. finally, that an industrial and concerted political action of all wage workers is the only method of attaining this end"
 The radical. wild doctrines enun- clated in the above, if adopted, win undoubtedly sound the death knell of the organization. for the American people will not stand activities nor tolerate eonspiracies to overthrow this government and substitute there for an ollogarchy of the Haywood pebs kind. dominated by an inner cir cie of ambitious and interruptions ad. ventursrs. The beautiful socialistlc doctrine that the Iaborer should re- ceive all he produces must be accom- panied by the corrollary that he should also lear ali the losses incur red in his employment. Especially. in the mining industry the losses are heavy. Only one out of every ten mining ventures pays a profit and this tenth successful ore only after long and unproftable development
