REFUSES TO WEAR OFFICE HOLDERS YOKE.

It would seem that Arizona Is not the only place on the map where there has appeared a weariness of political dictatorship assumed by federal office holders. Over in Kentucky there is open revolt against longer wearing meekly the officeholders yoke. Sena, tor-elect Bradley of the Blue Grass state is credited with this remark re. gently:
 "The time has come when I think the people of the country should throw of the yoke of the federal oficeholders that has been burden to them so long" The strong intimation is that MT. Bradley has in mind the move ment to nominate Secretary Taft for president and elect him, largely through the instrumentality of the fed eral offices. One federal oficeholder, after serving in the postoffice depart, ment in Washington long enough to become familiar with good deal of the Republican political machinery of the south, resigned from his place and entered the south as missionary for Secretary Taft.

in Nova Scotia? A RETRAcING
OF STEPS.

Says the Arizona Republican; It is always much easier to make a bfunder than it is to rectify it. That the summary ulsmlssal of the negro troops in connection with the Browns vile affair was great political blum der is now generally admitted by all persons regardless of their attitude to- ward the president. His message to congress yesterday followed by the announcement that bill will shortly be introduced into the senate is an ad, mission that the president himself rec ognizes that he made a tactical mis- take. This recognition has been doubt less forced upon him by the decision oI the senate committee m military affairs While he was sustained by majority of the committee. that ma. jority was made up in part by the solid democratic membership of the committee The president was op- posed by the majority of the republi. can membership. That fact would naturally SC much farther with the negroes of the country than the fact
  that the democrats, their traditional enemies. alone gave the president his apparent victory in the committee. It is the negroes and not public opinion that must be placated now.
 "On what theory and on what con ditions the members of the battalion wno were dismissed in disgrace after long years of faithfal service and whose appeals from time to time to the presidents sense of justice were disregarded, are now to be restored we cannot imagine. But whatever condition may be fixed for their res toration, the public will see behind 1t confession that mistake was made in the order of dismissal It cannot be H

 Tt is difficult to understand why any conditions to restoration shoild be necessary or how they can be success fully imposed. So far as the individ- ual guilt of the members of the battal- lion is concerned, there is no differ ence in the reports of the committee. The report Of the majority states that the shots at Brownsville were fired by members of the battalion whose names are unknown, whose guilt is therefore improved and who under American law are guiltless. The re port of the minority finds that the shots were not fired by members of the battalion. The investigation which Mir. Foraker caused to be insti- tuted, in spite of the obstacles placed in it's way by the administration and the department which were disposed to regard the incident as forever closed, no evidence of satisfying character on either side was adduced. It can hardly be supposed that any can be procured now to distinguish the innocent from the guilty, if any were guilty.
 ~'If the negro soldiers should be re stored, as they doubtless will be, to whom will the negroes of the country give credit for the restoration? To the presidents belated sense of jus tice? We think not, but rather to the incessant activity and opposition of Mir. Foraker who has kept the subject of the Brownsville wrong alive
 With many of them it will be a conjecture whether this tardy justice will result from a constant prlcking of the presldents conscience or the presidential political interest"

THE COURT AND THE MOB.

AND THE MOB.
 The .demagogue clamor for jury trial in contempt cases is nothing but the application of the referendum to the administration of justice, and if we are to have appeal from the Iegis- lation of congress to the mob. why should we not have appeal to the mob from the judgments of the court?
 The writ of injunction is. centuries old, and does for property what the writ of habeas corpus does for liber ty. A writ of injunction has no more terror for the law-abiding citizen than the statute against larceny. One com mands the citizen to leave uniniured his neighbor's property; the other commands him not to steal it. No honest man need fear the latter, and no peaceabie man can be disturbed by the former
 It is the duty Of courts of justice to construe wills. to appoint fiduciar ies. to put in ward the estates of in fants, to pronounce decrees of divorce. to interpret the meanings and scope of statutes Why not appeal the judg- ments of court in behalf of these to the adjudication of the mob? Perhaps it may come to that.
 The assumption of those who would refer contempt cases to jury is that the judge is corrupt or ignorant. or both, that the jury is more honest than the bench and more learned in the law. The proposal is an insult to the plain people It is an invitation to violence. It is contempt of our courts of justice. and a stigma upon them. It is an assumption that the votes of the people can be had for the license to violate the law and de- stroy the rights of property.
 That the writ of injunction has sometimes been abused is quite like ly; but that is not the fault of the

Resentment e omoisl activity on behalf eg the presidents candidate for president has inspired an Arizona circular bearing the above caption which has found it's way to Washing ton. says the Washington Herald.

 What is it?
 'Dementia Rooseveltia," according to this Arizona circular, is disease, and it is somewhat vulgarly defined or diagnosed as follows:
 The disease has been quite preva- lent throughout the United States, but it is rapidly subsiding, and is now chiefly confined to oficeholders The affliction, when in its most virulent form, it appears in federal appoint ees who are perniciously active in try ing to control nominating conventions, inclines the brain to sycophancy, makes rubber of the spinal cloumn, have a most virulent attack of this ''dementia Rooseveltia And down south it is worse than epidemic.

The Phoenix Gazette acknowledges the receipt of a box of Taft buttons and graciously agrees to supply those who will wear 'em. It was quite the appropriate thing for the Taft man agers to send these buttons to the collared organ of the federal officials in this territory.

JERSEY 'SKEETER
SOON To Be RARE
AS A MASTODON
And There Being None Of the
Latter, Pest Will Be Rare,
Indeed.
Especial to the Evening start

NEW BRUNSWICK, June 29.-There
will not be another brood of salt water
MOSQUITOES Matched this year in the
meadow lands, according to State En-
tomologist John B. Smith, who is In
charge of the States campaign against
the pest. Further, the doctor declares
thai within a few years the mosquito
viii be a rarity in this state. and that
if a Jerseyman wants to see what a
MOSQUITO looked like he will have 20
seek some natural history museum.
Bids for the draining of the Cheese
quake territory will be opened today,
and soon work will be started around
Paterson, Morristown and Plainfield.
1.-THE weather is responsible FOR the
present return of the mosquitoes in
the Newark meadows" said DR.. Smith.
During May there. was an unusually
heavy rainfall, the reports showing
that more rain fell during that month
than in any month for some time. This
caused the meadows to be almost con-
stantly covered this spring with rain,
the bitches dug for the draining of
the meadows and freeing them of the
mosquito eggs being unable to carry
off the heavy foods, with the result
that a new brood of mosquitoes
Matched and circulated throughout that
section.
Along the Shrewsbury, where the
drains have been in the longest, VIC
have found an average of two eggs to
the square inch of sod. Continuing our
Investigations further up the State. the
number increased. The drains made
only last fall. where there is a full
stock of eggs, showed fifty eggs to the
square inch. That means 700, 1000 eggs
to the square foot. When the number
is decreased from fifty to two eggs a
square inch you cannot help seeing
the work Is proving itself most
satisfactory.
"Thcrc will not be another brood of
mosquitoes during the current year. We
calculate to be able to drain OF all the
within "a week, and for the re-
mainder of the year there will be no
trouble with the snlt meadow mos
q%uitoes in the drained sections. We
have gone over the entire ground from
Jersey City to Sandy Hook, and will
have 1T nil cleaned out by midsummer.
"On Monday we will open the bids
for the Ch~eesequake territory. This
year we expect to reach Toms River
in the work. Next year we will go on
toward Atlantic City"

CHILDREN FROL|C
FOR WHOLE DAY
ON PARK GREEN
James A. Bray Democratic AS
sOciatiOn Gives Hillside Out
ing to 1000.

Today was another memorable one at
Hillside Pleasure Park. The James A.
Bray Democratic Association of the
Fourteenth Ward gave the boys and
girls of that section a good time today.
More than 1000 children, arrayed in
their Sunday clothes and carrying small
American flags, went by special trolley
to the popular Belleville resort to spend
the day.
The committee at first planned to
take the children to Olympic Park, but
at q late period satisfactory arrange
ments could not be made with the man
agement and Hillside Park was de-
cided on.
AT the park the children We're pro-
vided with food an9 refreshments and
allowed all privileges.
Alderman Bray arrived at the park
shortly after noon and was cheered
to the echo and kept busy shaking
hands with the little ones. A number
of county and city officials watched
the excursionists enjoy themselves, and
the committee saw that all had a good
time.
Freebooter Frederick C. Steck acted
as chairman of the arrangement COM
mittee. G. A. Resented, president of
the association, who suggested that the
children be given an outing, was a
popular figure.
