Judging from all reports emanating from Phoenix, during the visit of Sec retary Garfield and Postmaster Gener al Hitchcock, the next move is up to the president. The Republicans of Arizona, represented by the National Committeeman and the Federal office holders, resolved to stand pat for sin gle statehood for Arizona. If the president wants the six votes from Arizona in the next National Republi- can convention, he can get them by saying in black and white that there is to be no more joint statehood.

The mines continue to be more at. tract:ve in Cochise county. he hills are yet being searched by the pros pectors and the men from the north and east stand ready to undertake to supply the money for the development of properties which give promise of becoming producers. In the Johnson district, including the entires Dragoon range, there is much activity and ex- cellent results have come from de- veiopment work in that section. In the Dos Cabezas district on the Chiri- cahua side of the Sulphur Springs valley work is being pushed in a much more determined manner than ever before. In the Paradise district things are dull just at present, but still there is some work going on under encouraging conditions. Should
 
 the price of copper remain at some thing near the present price it may be confidently expected that mineral production will be largely increased during the next two years from new mines not yet in the producing list. Tombstone is getting back to it's old time notch as a producer with every days work and those who are in formed of what is being done in the old camp by the Tombstone COnsol- idated Mines company do not hesi- tate to predict the greatest measure of success. Cochise county has put all other Arizona counties far in the rear in the matter of developing min eral wealth and the outlook for the future of this enormous industry here was never better than today.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION AND THE STOCK MARKET.

It is plainly apparent that the money interests of the country have banded themselves together, with the Stand, ard Oil crowd at the head, for the purpose of demonstrating to the gov, ernment that without their support of the stock market and the industrial enterprises of the country. conditions bordering on panic must inevitably follow.
 That Wall street possesses the DOW. CT none can successfully deny, and the present disturbed conditions no doubt, can be traced to secret understand ing among the banking interests and Trust presidents Of the country to combine for the purpose and attempt to create dissatisfaction with the poi icy of the president with reference to enforcing the antitrust laws found on the statutes
 The panicky conditions first made their appearance a few days following the announcement that Standard Oil had been fined s29 .24O.OOO This con ditiOn was accentuated by the further statement that no time was to be lost in proceeding against the rebat- ing railroad trust of the country. Then 1t was that the trusts all over the land began to sit up and notice that the present laws were effective and that inc old methods of frenzFed .,srncier, ing was a thing of the past. IL is plain that the trusts do not Intend Co quit the game without a struggle. and In the fight between the trusts and the government, the little fellow Is quite likely to be caught between two dncs and emerge from the fracas with only his tail feathers.
 The struggle that bids fair to take place before the trusts can be dislodg. ed from their strong position will be long drawn out and replete with legal entanslements but the victory VII e worth the price in the end.
 The days of trust domination in ,his country Is rapidly drawing to a close. Fostered by a high protective tariff. they have grown fat and arrogant at the expense of the people mtn pu5l'e sentiment has become SO strong that we are face to face with the specta. cle of the Republican party disownins Its own child Laws prohibiting rs. batting and discrimination viii not accomplish the desired result tn full. We must soon have a tariff policy. patterned after the ideas of the Dem .oerAtie party, before we will be com pleteiy well from the trust malady. This same policy adopted years ago. wuuld have put an effectual end to the massing of gigantic fortunes by the favored few. and would have re- neyed the present operation of al great deal of unnecessary pain and financial loss.

GEORGIA AND TEXAS.

Georgia and Texas present difrer- ent attitudes toward the immigrant, the one repellng and the other vel coming new blood of a sturdy char acter. writer in a Georgia paper declares the people of that state to be decidedly against the introduction of even the most desirable class of foreign laborers, contending that they are good enough for the west anG northwest, where society is yet in the formative stage, but in the south "our semi-ar,stocrat tendencies make it impossible for us to receive these people"
 That, says an eastern paper, is es- sentially the spirit of the old south, the lingering legacy of the aristo- cratic planter, and is far removed from the progressive idea of the pres ent age.
 Is it possible that the people of Georgia hope to import immigrants of the drawing room and ball room variety to work in the shops. fields and foundries of that state? If so. and they wait until the agricultural and industrial resources of their state are developed by ball room beaux and drawing room belles, then Georgia is destined to be left far behind in the grand march of progress. The so- ciety of Georgia composed of old aris- tocrat'c families. has been able to maintain its exclusiveness despite the thousands of immigrants who have poured into that state from Europe and the north since the war. The best society of Georgia is not ostentatious or arrogant. and the writer in the Georgia paper quoted above sounds very much like the talk of a pleb'an of recent wealth.
 In striking contrast to the attitude of Georgians we find Texas welcom- ing with open arms shipload of Russian immigrants They were re- gently landed at Galveston, and were met at the pier by the mayor, who greeted them with the warmest hospi- tality. They were told to come in. possess the land and make the most of 1t. The gratitude of these strange people was pathetically expressed through their spokesman, who said:
 We are overwhelmed that the rul- CT of the city should greet us. We have never been spoken to by the officials of our country except in terms of harshness, and although we have heard of the great land of free dom. it Is hard to realize that we are permitted to grasp the hand of the great man. We will do ell We can 10 make good citizens"
 What the south needs more than anything else gre more sturdy immi- grants of the working class. Tn the long run Texas will be the richer for her welcome to immigration, while Georgia will move but slowly in de velopment if she adheres to the stand ards set by the enervstlng aristoeracy of the earlier days.
