Bisbee daily review., 1908-05-16

The business men of Phoenix are apparently we'll pleased with the con ference held there this week with representatives of the Southern Pa ciic and Santa Fe railroads. Judg- ing by the reports published in the capital city papers u ere was assur- ance given at the conference that there would be a reduction of freight rates to all points in the Salt river valley. We ere not advised fully just what was the grievance presented to the railroad officials at the Phoenix conference, but we are inclined to the belief that a grievance equally as great could be found in railroad towns in Cochise county. The just grievance of Arizona Is found in the fact that the railroads discriminate against territorial points in favor of both Fl Paso and Los Angeles. thus putting every man who is engaged in the manufacturing or in the whole sale business in Arizona at great disadvantage

speaks well for their eficlency; twelve call their education academic. which presumably amounts to high school course, and forty-eight are graduates of colleges and universi- ties. Looking at their domestic stat us. we find sixtyfcur have wives with them, ten daughters or other rela- tiyes. and eighteen are wholly with out female protection.
 Classified by occupation. one is a doctor. one an editor. two are bank CTS. two farmers. sixteen business men, and the remaining seventy law yers. Few will disagree with the opinion that there is too large pre- ponderance of the legal profession. to be fairly representative of the people. Most legislation concerns business in some way, and it would be a good thing for the country if the constitu- encies would get in to the way of sending more business men to look out for their interests"

6isBEE's BOARD OF TRADE

The banquet given last night at the Copper Queen hotel by the Board of Trade of this city reflects credit on sne organization. The occasion brought to this city number of men who will be in a position to spread in many places the information about Bisbee which they received at the banquet table and during yesterday when they were shown over the en- tire Warren District
 It is well for Bisbee to keep in close touch with the railroad men of the southwest, for whether freight rates are high or low, it is the busi- ness of railroad men to boost for the locality which receives and ships it. A city having the friendship of the railroad boosters will not be likely to fall to the rear in the race for prog ress
 The Bisbee Board of Trade, only now about one year old, has already shown what a live organization of business men can do. in the way of bringing the city into prominence. It is certain that BisSee and the War ren District is better known today away from home than it ever was be- fore. and 1t is certain that such work in the future as has been carried on in the past will result in much sreater Bjsbee than we would have vithost this live organization
 There is much work yet to be done by the Board of Trade: Bisbee and the Warren District can provide indus trial statistics which will astonish even the residents of Bisbee, and these figures should se gathered for distribution to strangers as they ar rive in the city, and for mailing to fhose who may send fer information concerning our city
 The success of the banquet last night reflects credit upon those who snsiaated, planned and carried 1t out. The people of Bisbee can show their appreciation of this good work by 2 continued liberal support of the or ganizatson-

From every section of the territory come reports of heavy shipments of cattle. 1'he cattle ranges of Arizona have been in excellent condition for several years for growing fine cattle and the present large shipments win have the effect of greatly helping the financial stringency which has been complained of during the last few months. The cattle industry is one which has always been an important factor in the prosperity of. Arizona
 Twenty years ago it was the princi- pal industry, but since then it has been passed by both the mining and agricultural industries. The money received from the cattle shipments which are being made from every cat tie district will find it's way directly into the banks and go directly into the channels of trade. So the cattle men will not be the only ones bene- fited by the shipments now being made.

There is no state or territory more interested in the result of the confer ence now being held in Washington by President Roosevelt and his distin- guished guests, including the goyer- nors of the several states and other men distinguished because of their knowledge of the undeyeloped re- sources of the country, than Arizona. While Arizona pioneers have devel oped some great mines in the terri tory and astonished the world by the enormous output of last year, We all know that the development of our az ricultural industry has hardly begun. It is true that all of the available sur face water has been taken from the streams, thus making several import ant valleys productive and beautiful, but the work of storing the enormous amount of flood waters which pass through the territory every year has only been started. The Tonto dam will supply the Salt river valley with abundant water with which to irri- gate all the land under it; when that great government enterprise has been completed there are others just as important which should be undertak- en without delay Every opportunity should be availed to impress the ir. rigation service of the government that this territory can show several opportunities as favorable as that at Tonto for the storage of water. Be sides the water storage proposition there are other ways of securing wat CT for irrigation in Arizona which the government should be urged to assist in. With artesian water to the north, east and west of the Sulphur Springs valley may we not hope that it can be developed to the north of Douglas. We believe it will not be hard to in- duce the government to make expert ments along this line and in other arid valleys of the territory Cover nor Kibbey is attending the confer ence in Washington, accompanied by several other able men of the terri tory, and we feel confident that noth- ing will be overlooked which will d. rect attention to the great opportuni- ties in this fair and sunny land for the development of great wealth in the future.

ABOUT THE SENATE.

The Washington Post has been studying the senate with the result that the following appears in its edi- torial columns:
 'It is natural that vixen a man comes into a position of prominence, whether it be as soldier, poet. banker, or statesman his fellow-men should be interested in learning all they can about him. They wish to be informed not only as to everything connected with the special features of his pub lie or professional career. what ele- ments and circumstances and charac- teristics have conspired to make him what he is. but they like to know all about his life in all its notifications and relations. Lincoln is a notable illustration of this. Every scrap of information that has been gathered 1DSaS L1hk III oiA IAo yCoAS o4ASO hio death has been greatly treasured. and nothing is too trivial to be of interest.
 "The most conspicuous and notable body of men in the United States is the senate, and while it would be i'm possible, short of small volume, to give any individual account of them, some few facts in regard to them as a whole will be useful in forming the impression which every one must have and which should be as correct as possible.
 There are ninety-two senators from forty-six states. beginning alpha betically with AIdrich and ending with wetmore. All but four were born in the United States, One was born in Norway, one in England and two in Canada. Since the recent death O. Morgan and Pettus of Ala bama and Whyte of Maryland, the only man in the senate past eighty years of age is Stewart of Vermont, and he is a newcomer. He is eighty three. Next come Allison and Cullom at seyenty-nine. Frye at seventy-sev- en, and Platt at seventy-ive, and af. ter them the average is not very high, probably about ffty-fve. Five sena- tors served in the union army and four fought gainst them which is great change in the past decade or two. For many years after the war almost every southern senator had been soldier, and many northern ones. The old men are passing with the old issues. Whether their succes- sors will be equal in courage and moral fiber to the men trained in ac- ton on the field as well as in mart and forum remains to be seen.
 When it comes to education, we find one who says he educated him self. two graduates of West Point. twenty-seyen whose training was Him. ited to the common schools. which

Lght colored velvet and even ing gowns with mink, sable or CT mine gArnishments mingle with rars old faces and are the very cream of elegance.

Bisbee daily review., 1908-05-16

The Arizona Republican of Phoenix has moved into a new building re- gently completed for its accommoda- ton. Besides new building the Re publican has purchased a new press, the largest ever brought to the terri tory. In recent years the Republican has scored big success as a news paper. This paper was started away back in 1890, when Louis Wolfiey was governor and the excuse for it was the fact that Governor wolfey and other members of his administration did not think that the administra- ton was receiving alr that was due it from the other republican papers in the territory; so the Republican was started as political organ" and it had the experience of all newspapers which had only politics to support it.
 T. was started on a plane away above what Arizona was then able to sup port. A high salaried editor, named ziegenfuss, was imported from San Francisco; there were telegraph edi- tors. city editors, sporting editors and news editors It is understood that the enterprises stranded, financially. nearly everyone who had anything to do with carrying the Republican dur
