SCIENTIFIC POOLING WITH
 HUMAN LIFE.


 Has a physician right to inoculate a man with tuberculosis when the latter requests or consents to it with a view to the promotion of scientific knowledge and mastery of the dis ease? That questioH has come up in New York over the case of Frank Merritt, wiap hadzslost his wife and child by consumption and who thought he had nothing to live for. Dr. Craft Carroll took the man at his word and so administered the germs of tubercu- losis that a well developed case of consumption has resulted. Enthusiasm for science needs to be tempered by good judgment and a due regard for the sacredness of human life There is no necessity for choosing a human subject for such experiments. The law in various ways declares that a man must not needlessly expose his life to danger, and what he may not do for himself neither a physician nor any other scientific expert may do for him. If Merritt should die from the effects of that inoculation Dr. Carroll would have to answer to a charge of manslaughter

ENTIRELY roo CHARITABLE.

The Rev. MT. Duncan of Butte, Mont. had been invited by the G. A. R. post of that city to deliver the principal ad- dress on Decoration Day. The invita- tion was properly and periodically re- called when it was learned that MT. Duncan had invited Emma Goldman, the high priestess of anarchy to occu- py his pulpit In statement Mir. Duncan declares that he is not an an archist and has no sympathy with an archist That, he says is why he of fered the woman the freedom of his pulpit That seems to be carrying the christian spirit of charity too far. That would give a mad dog the freedom of the Kindergarten; the wolf the free dom of the sheep fold.
 It is not believed either that MT Duncan would consistently carry it in every direction. He would hardly have invited an agent of the liquor trust to occupy his pulpit for a discourse on the evils of temperance.
 If MT. Duncan is not an anarchist he is not a patriot since he offers counte- nance to one who advocates the de- struction of the government which the old soldiers fought to save.

PHOENIX, ARIZONA, JUNE 3, 1908,
A PRECEDENT.

Col. Bird in the Nogales Oasis rises to a defense of the manner in which the late territorial committee meeting was called by Vice Chairman Haggott' over the head of Chairman Penney. says Col. Bird:
 Tt was the duty of the vice chair man to call the meeting. That matter the writer settled for himself in a min ing corporation two years ago. AS vice president he went over the head of the president, just as MT. Haggott has done in this case. his action was sustained by a majority of the direc- tors. later by a majority of the share holders, and yet later by the courts"
 That appears to settle it. In support of the regularity of the committee meeting let the record of it include the proceedings of Col Birds mining cor poration election. Who in the repub- lican national convention would have the nerve to go against such pre- cedent?
 But we Tear the queslioh oI tio committee meetings regularity will not be reached in the hurly- burly Of convention week. The credentials committee will most probably regard the action of the committee without taking thought of its regularity or ir- regularity as ultra wires, as the lawyers say; an intrusion upon the functions of the credentials committee whose chief business is to discriminate between regular and rump bodies. That hard worked body would probably resent having thrown upon it the duty of de- ciding whether a certain territorial committee meeting was regular or not

 The Saleros is one of the antigua mines, worked long before Arizona became a territory of the United States. Salero is the Spanish word for salt cellar and the Mexicans tell the following story of the naming of the old mine: Tn the days when the Mexican miners and prospectors goug- ed the rich ores from the veins of the Santa Ritas, a camp in that section was visited by a bishop from the Tumocacori mission. The best the camp afforded was gathered together for feast in honor of the visit of the holy prelate, and is was learned there was not a salt-cellar in the camp. For a time the religious residents of the camp were at a loss what to do. But serve salt to the bishop on a plate or in a teacup was not to be thought of. But in the camp were two large mug gets of native silver, taken from the mine a short time before They were larger than salt-cellars and Handy Andy at the camp suggested that they be used. Chisels and files were put into use. The nuggets were chip ped and filed into shape gouged out and transformed into two serviceable saleros. When the salt-cellars, new and shining, were placed upon the table before the bishop, they aroused his curiosity and he was told how they were made. He then named the mines from which the nuggets were taken Los Saleros, the name by which they are still known to all Mexicans and old timers in this section"

CAUSE OF FOREST FIRES.

The. whole sworld Is reading of the
horrors OF a forest Are in the Canad-
ian province of British Columbia, in
which s1o,ooo,ooo worth Of property
and hundreds OF lives we're sacrificed,
all because of the carelessness Of q
lum bering camp. S.
These "tbush" or brush" fires. as
they are, called generally originate
from neglected camp fires, started
among the slashingss Of lumber COM
panies. lSlashings are the limbs and
tops Of trees left by lumbernen as
they cut, together with Smaller stuff
cleared away to make roads. and get
out the logs. Dry as finder in sum-
mer, the slashings leap to flame at the
first invitation. They should be burned
after the lumbermen when the ground
Is wet or when there is snow upon it,
leaving the numbered forest clear OF
tinder-like rubbish. This, however, is
never done and in process Of time the
ground is covered with material of the
most highly infiammable character.
Once started the subjugation of a
forest fire is almost impossible until
everything in its path has been con-
sumed. The intense heat creates
strong currents of air, even if none al
ready existed, that carry light particles
of burning wood for surprisingly long
distances. dropping them in places
where fresh fuel awaits them. thus
extending the fire-swept area. The re-
gion affected becomes SO heated that
even the green timber burns almost
with the readiness Of dry wood. The

unfortunate inhabitants of places Wis
tied by these horrors often find them
selves entirely surrounded by flaming
trees and escape is out of the ques-
ton.
Forest fires are as preventable as
typhoid fever. When engines on forest
railways are run by electricity or have
spark arresters, when slashings are
burned by the men who make them,
and when setting fires by carelessness
or intent is severely punished the
common forest heritage which man is
so shamefully wasting to make the
earth desert will stand better
chance.
