hood, the dream of more than forty years now about to be realized.
 For an improved quality of citi- zenship, a greater love and respect for music, education, culture, refine ment and all that makes for a higher civilization and a grander type of Christian manhood and womanhOod.
 For an awakened public conscience for a keener sense of justice and business integrity and obligation for civic righteousness, for a growing public spirit which forgets' self and labors for the general good, for mu nicipal pride, for a broad. Christ-like charity which lives not for self alone, but remembers the poor. the sick, the unfortunate, who are always with us.
 For our public institutions, pres ent and prospective; our new prison in Florence, our new and enlarged territorial asylum for the insane. our territorial industrial school, all of which evidences a more human and keener sympathy for dependents and unfortunates.
 For the growth of churches. schools and public libraries. the love of books, of nature and of God.
 For general prosperity in all Ari- zona, for the demand for labor. free dom from strikes and industrial up- heavals.
 For local prosperity, as compared with six or eight years ago; then general depression and hopelessness; now general activity and hopefulness.
Arizona republican., 1908-11-27

For steady progress of the Salt River project; that it is of char acter to attract the attention of en- gineers from Japan, Germany, Spain and indeed the world over; for the Roosevelt and Granite Reef dams, the salvation of this valley; for the mag nificent power possibilities between Phoenix and Roosevelt.
 For the Mesa and Roosevelt road, with it's grand, rugged scenery, which friend, who has just toured the Yo semitic, said equals. if not surpasses anything to be seen.
 For this glorious climate which, to us who daily luXuriate in its glo- rious sunshine, fails to be appre- ciated at it's real value As one of our leading physicians truly says. Every morning on rising we should praise God and every night before retiring we should thank God for the privilege of living in such a glorious climate.
 All of which ought to make us more patriotic, more intense in our love of country, more loyal to our territory, better Christian men and women, more public spirited and larger hearted-a people conseecrated to a life of service to the public wei fare, remembering that no man liV- eth to himself alone. Thus we are helping to build up a national char acter which will stand for right, jus tice. purity and be blessed of God"
 Rev. J. w Atwood, rector of Trin- ity. spoke of the development of the -..n, n, it's added responsibilities and its con- stantly increasing efficiency and ca pacity for doing good While on the topic of church development he re- ferred to the establishment of mis- sion churches at Tempe, Peoria and Mesa as a preliminary to further eX- pansion. One point made by Dr. Atwood, for which he thought the church should give thanks on this day, was a certain broadening in church policy. This withdrawal from a more exclusive attitude of a few years ago was illustrated by the fact that members of other denominations were invited to speak from the same pulpit, as the regularly ordained priests of the church.
 He also, spoke of the Immanuel church movement which is directed toward the care of the body. In a sense this movement is closely allied with physical healing of biblical times as practiced by Christ. There is @ tendency in the modern church to return to this neglected phase of the work of Christ and it will be made a feature of practical Christianity as s, l1 oI,,1, and girls organized by the church He said that the body should be a fitting tabernacle for the soul.
 The church was pleasingly deco rated with fruits, flowers and vege- tables, all of which were gathered up

EalIacious Finance.

If you had $25O,425,623 to your creo
it in the banks, and you had notes OF
bonds coming due, amounting to 500.
945,460 on August /, drawing three
per cent. interest, would you pay wha'
you owe, or allow the notes to run fol-
ten years longer? 1t would seem t
be a plain business proposition to pay
the notes and thus save two per cent
interest. The above statement of the
amount of money on deposit in the
banks and the bonds due on August l
is the exact condition of the United
States treasury on July II, but it is
stated that Secretary Cortelyou in
tends to allow the 500, 600, 900 of bonds
to and still draw three per cent
interest instead of paying them.
Those outstanding bonds were is
sued on August /, 1898, on the three
per cent. 1920 basis, that is the gov.
eminent can redeem the bonds on the
expiration of ten years, or can allow
them to run ten years longer. Those
outstanding bonds can also be refund
ed with new bonds drawing two pei
cent. interest, so that instead of the
government having to pay annual in.
terest of about 81, 1000 a year. this
interest charge would be reduced to
$780, 600 a'year.
There would be no doubt about what
a business man would dofunder these
circumstances. He would undoubtedly
pay the, bonds and stop paying inter
est. But the government finances are
evidently not run on business prin.
ciples, but appear to be manipulated,
for the benefit of the national banks
or somes other Wall street favorite
who owns the bonds.

Capital to Get a Thorough Cleansing

the same, the death rate in the zone,
the difference in population cOnsid-
cred, is considerably less than here.
Sanitary experts express themselves
as being shocked at the conditions ex-
listing here, and in many other Amer
lean cities, after what has been &C.
complished under most discouraging
conditions on the Isthmus of Panama.
They say that there is absolutely no
excuse for the prevalence of such con.
d~itions, and SO far as Washington is
concerned, a determined effort will
be made to eliminate them.
Government psychologists, chem.
lists and experts in other branches of
science are now investigating the con.
ditions prevailing in many hotels and
restaurants, among them some of the
best in the city, and it is said that a
number of warrants will be issued for
the arrest of some of the proprietors
of these establishments. The house.
cleaning is to be general and thor.
Ough; the nations capital will be
turned inside out, stood on its end,
and turned upside down, and the
scraping, busting, spraying and touch
ing up it will receive will be a sur.
prise to the natives. .

Railroads and Politics.

Are railroad rates to be. raised on
August 1? The railroads managers
claim that either rates must be in.
creased or wages reduced. to- make
both ends meet. The Republican poll
ticians say that to reduce wages dur.
ing the campaign might lead to
strikes and the defeat of the Republic
can ticket. This puts the railroad
managers in a dilemma that it is diff
cult to eXtricate themselves from, for
they have decided it is for their best
interests to elect Mr.. Taft, and they,
therefore, do not wish to embarrass
the Republican managers by reducing
wages, SO it is said they will increase
railroad rates about ten per cent. The
business interests are much opposed
to an increase of rates which would
naturally lead to a decrease in traffic.
All this shows the necessity of a di.
vorce Of railroad policies from Repub-
lican politics, or both will suffer. The
people are in no mood to indorse the
Republican candidates if they are to
pay the freight, and the railroad en-
ployes will oppose, even to the point
OF a gigantic strike, a reduction Of
wages while the cost of living is still
1t is difficult to decide the merits of
the controversy, but however it is set
tied it would seem to spell disaster to
the Republicans.

New York World for Bryan.

The New York World has come
straight into the Bryan camp. In a
leading editorial the other day the
World says:
1--WE are nearing the end of one
stage of RoOseveltism. It's fruits are
before us. In the name of false pa
triotism they are jingoism, imperial
ism, extravaganza, plutocracy, central
ization. They are violence, usurpa-
ton, panic, depression. They are con-
tempt for law, contempt for courts,
contempt for congress, contempt for
the constitution. All these have been
crystallized in the machine-made and
corporation financed candidacy of a
personally amiable and excellent
proxy.
Independently and firmly, volun-
tarily and conscientiously, and with a
keen appreciation. of it's W RESPONSE
bility to the public, the World, con
fronted on one side by R~ooseveltism
and R~oosevelt's proxy and or the other
by Democracy and Mr.. Bryan, has no
hesitation in saying that, within the
limits of true Democracy, the Demo
cratic ticket is entitled to the full
Democratic vote"
