EP|LEPTIC MURDERER
 PARD0NED BY KIBBEY

Phoenix, Oct. 1.-Governor Kibbey has granted pardon to Ygnacio Mo lima, who was sentenced in Yuma to serve one year for manslaughter. but the service for which had not yet be- gun. Molina is young man of pre- vious good character and the incident of his trouble seems to have been ac- companied by all sorts of unfortunate circumstances.
 Though bearing a good reputation Molina was subject to epileptic fits, a reason that made his appointment as a deputy sheriff indiscreet. One day he attemped to arrest a drunken h. dian. The latter ran and Molina fired three times in his direction to frighten him, but one of the shots found the mark with fatal effect. In the subsequent trial the case was poorly presented by reason of a multiplicity of counsel. and he was convicted not withstanding the coroner's jury exon erated him
 There was further bad management of the case when an effort was made to appeal it to the supreme court. so it never came up for review on its merits. The governor does not con sider that the ends of justice require that he serve the sentence, for he has been a victim of misfortune rather than having criminal intent, comes from a good family and to incarcerate him now as a young man would blast his future if it did not ruin his health

trate the methods by which the census takers went
to work, the audacty of presumption in assuming to

THE CENSUS TAKER.

One of the particular prerogatives of the clergy
is to claim themselves to be vice-regents, pleni-
potentary- representatives of almighty god.
By reason of this claim they have been, and in
measure still are accorded public recognition
usually denied to of other and different caings.
This recognition has led to innumerabe assumptions
of power and privilege, unauthorized and unwar-
ranted authority even in matters of private or do
mestic character.
It is the will of god'' they cry, but friend,
Claiming Severance, of Los Angeles writes us, the
"will of god is simply the wish of the priest" and
we could also add that it comes only through the
voice of the priest. But read
cit is the duty of every parent to see that their
children attend Sunday school,
''That all depends upon the parent"
"Don't your children attend Sunday SCHOOL,"
''They do not.
''And why don't they?"
because do not wish them to-, and further it is
none of your business
Be it known that recently the preachers of Lex
ington combined to take church of the entire
CITY, The object not to come in contact with and
find out how many people attended church and Sun
dayschool, but to get list of those who did not
attend church and whose children did not attend the
Sunday school. In measure the scheme succeeded
but it won't do them any good

The United States has come into pos.
session Of the Philippines and all the
political and strategical responsibilities
entailed by this movement. The particl-
patton In, and suppression of, the Boxer
rebellion, the expanding recognition of
the supreme Importance to the future
Of American trade, of the open door, the
realization that, with the exception Of
Japan, no country is so well situated
as the United States, industrially and
geographically, to make the most and
the best of the development Of China.
These and other events have trans
formed American Indifference to the
fortunes Of the Far East into a real,
live, tingling and vigilant concern.
Logical Commercial Events.
1t did not need the Chinese boycott
Of American goods, or the outbreak of
the trouble with Japan over the immi-
grafton question, to convince an impair
tial onlooker that Americas relations
with the powers Of the Far East would,
before long, be more immediate, Of
greater moment and possibly Of greater
hazard than our relations with the
powers Of Europe. The American fleet
has f~oreshadowed the systematic asser-
tion Of American power in the Pacific.
American interests in that ocean, com
mercial, political and territorial, have
been neglected far too long.
Father of the Philippines.
Mr.. Taft is in a sense the father of
the Philippines. 1t has been his kindly,
constructive statesman's hand that
evolved order out Of their original
chaos. In his report submitted to Con-
gress, as a result of his visit to the
Philippines to be present at the opening
OF their first Assembly, he made four
recommendations. First-action by Con-
gress admitting to the United States
Philippine products under such condi-
lions that they would not interfere
with American tobacco and sugar in
dustries: second, the removal of re-
strictions as to acquiring mining claims
and lands: third, further legislation
authorizing the government to carry
an agricultural bank, which is now
authorized only as a private enterprise

THE YOUNG REPUBLICAN.

In q business sense the young voters
who have come forward since 1904 have
more at stake than any other class In
rendering a right decision. Their ac-
tive lives are ahead. They have more
years to live, and are 0 laying the
foundations of their business careers.
National policies and conditions are OF
the highest consequence to them. Per.
haps they are farmers. Ii so, let them
ask the older generation how farmers
Jared under the last Democratic admin
~istration. Let them take the market
reports Of to-day and compare them
with the prices that prevailed when Mr..
Bryan made his crusade for free silver
and hurled defiance at President Cleve-
land because he stood by the gold
standard. At the same time Bryan de-
nounced the Republican party for its
protectionist as well as sound money
position. Perhaps the frst voter is to
engage In manufacturing or mining. as
wage-earner or otherwise. Does he
want his American rate Of wages and
the industry he chooses reasonably pro-
tscted against foreign competitions II
he does Mr.. Bryan's leadership will
take him In the opposite direction

GROWTH OF WEALTH PER

(From the Los Angeles Times.)
In 1920 the savings banks of the
United States held $1,i38,576. This
was o poor country then compared with
now The amount was only an average
of IL cents for the population OF that
time. That amount of average economy
was very small.
Now the people OF this country have

II an average for the whole population
OF this time OF e $40. The actual
depositors have an average OF S421 to
their csedit. In 1920 only $685. per-
IONS In the country were rich enough TO
have q savings bank account. Now
there are s,SSS,S11.
When James Buchanan, the last
Democratic President In a long line,
went into Office, there was about $780,
100000 In the savings banks Of the
United States. By 1870, after fighting
out the great war, the people, under
Republican rule for twenty years. Lad
$3.50, 000,O 900 In the savings banks. When
the next Democratic President tool his
seat in 1888, the savings OF the people
had passed the billion point. BY 1898
the savings had doubled again.
So there 1t Is. In 1920 there were
only about 5000 people rich enough to
have a savings bank account. Now
there are over 100000. In 1920 the
savings were II cents per capita now
they are over $40.

rich richer in this country is as true
