The protection of the health of the people of
e Fitzgerald should be the very first consideration
by the city fathers. The population of the city is
increasing rapidly and steps should be taken at
once to provide sewerage. There are number
of things we would all like to have but this one
thing we must have for the protection of health.
Nature has afforded good drainage and if
some work is done to connect up with that which
nature has provided an excellent sewerage system
can be provided.
AS to the matter of cost that should not be
taken into consideration except to see that the
work is done as economically and well as posi-
bic. The life of one citizen is worth more than
the cost of any number of miles ofsewerage.

ARIZONA MAKING HER POSI-
TON MOST SECURE

Development work is going
straight ahead in Arizona mines,
and when the metal market opens
up again, Arizona will be the first
to enter and the best equipped to
take advantage of the renewed de-
mand.
Not a single big company has
shut down its development work,
and though the actual output OF
ore has been decreased during the
slump, the companies are block
ing out their future supplies and
planning for the most economic
operation when the time comes to
turn things loose,
Copper mining is as secure as
iron, coal, timber, wheat, cotton,
or any other staple production.
The world cannot get along with
out copper, and the demand will
greatly increase within .he next
few years. The country is merely

ing themselves" and thereby MAX
ing the county, through its board
of supervisors, sec the great neces-
sity of. road-making from an eco
nomical standpoint.
Now this has been accomplished
and the board of supervisors still
makes the offer to the other road
districts in the county, to pay
three-fourths of the expense of
graveling the road, if the people
will come forward and contribute
th cir share of the expense. No
better offer for good road-making
has ever been presented, and SAT-
ford and Solomonville quickly
recognized the good that could be
accomplished by cooperating with
the board of supervisors.
BY the use of good gravel ant
judgment in grading, there will be
less expense in keeping up roads
so repaired, and this is an econo-
my that must be apparent to every
one. Besides it gives such a salts
factory roadway for both heavy
and light traffic.
1t is to be hoped that the people
in the other road districts of the
county will take advantage of the
offer of the board of supervisors,
and lose no inc in getting to work
lettering the condition of their
roads.
The board Of supervisors should
be heartily commended for their
readiness iu meeting the question
of good road making and for their
hearty support of the project and
the promptness in which the plan
was carried out.

Charges Against
Adams Express Co

Washington, d. c., Feb Ga
hearing ofparticular importance to
Denver and the other cities in the
west is being held by the inter.
state commerce commission. 1t
involves the rates charged by var
ious express companies for the
transportation of express matter,
both east and west Of points in the
middle and far west.
The case is that of George J.
kindel of Denver against the Ad-
ans Express company and other
express companies, in. which the
complaiOant alleges that the ex-
press rates from Denver TO San
Francisco and from Denver TO
points east are unjust, excessive,
and discriminatory against Den
YER. Mr.. Kindell showed that the
rate per 100 pounds from New
York TO San Francisco was Sl3.50
while the rate from Denver to San
Francisco was SO per 100
From other points in the west
to points farther west and to
points in the east the rates indicat-
ed the same sort Of alleged dis
elimination. The complainant is
seeking to have the commission
adjust the rate on what be regards
an equal basis, that will provide c
against unfair discrimination
against Denver and other western
cities.

GOOD RADIANCE.

Word comes from Clifton that
the Graham County Advocate, a
socialist weekly paper which has
existed 10 that town for year,
has suspended publication because
of lack Of support. We congratu
late the people Of Clifton on the
death of this socialist sheet.
Like all other socialist papers
the Advocate devoted. its colums
to the one purpose of trying to
stir up trouble between the CON-
panles and their employees in the
Clifton-Morenci district where
there had been industrial peace
always since the mining industry
was started there,

ness men or the men who had
been employed in the district for
years, and who were acquainted
with the history and conditions
Of industry there, and they quite

We again congratulate Clifton
on the demise of the Advocate and
hope that its editor will find en-
ployment which will be more
profitable to himself and more
beneficial to the community

CRAWLING COUNTY ROADS

Several weeks ago the question
of improving the county roads
came up before the Board of Super
visors at their regular meeting
Several plans were proposed, but
the best plan offered was the one
to place gravel on the roads.
The Board decided that, in order
to encourage the people in the diff
ferent road districts to keep up
good roads and in way that
would be economical, not only to
the county, but to the people them
selves, who had to use the roads
and knew the necessity for good
grades and firm level roadway,
to make the offer that if the peo
pie of the road districts would
help the county by paying one
fourth of the expenses Tor grading
and graveling the roads the board
would be willing to ap ppropriate a
sum that would equal tbree-fourths
of the amount needed.
In furtherance of tbs plan, the
people residing IA the Solomon
vile and Ssford road districts
started in with subscription lists
to secure tie amount needed for
their share Of the expenses.
The project met with instant
favor on all hands. Both Solo
knoxville and Stafford quickly sub
scribed their amounts, and the
work of grading and graveling the
county road from Stafford to Solo
monville, distance of six miles,
was commenced and the work will
soon be completed.
That part of the road that is
completed makes fine driveway,
especially for heavy traffic, and
gives great satisfaction to everyone
travelling over it, And when the
work on this road is entirely fin
ished, our people will have one of
the best, if not the best, roads in
in tho county.
Good roads are an absolute ne
cessity in every community, and
no one realizes this fact more than
the people who travel over them,
There has always been too much
of "wait until the county does
something" and too little of "help.

BRYAN AND ROOSEVELT

1t is noticeable that those same
wobbly Democrats who joined the
Republicans in denouucing as rad
ical and socialistic the Democratic
platform upon which Mr., Bryan
went before the country in 1900
are the same Democrats who are
now joining the Republicans in
applaud,ng Mr.. Roosevelt for ad-
vocatiDg the same radical" prin
clples then advocated by Mr..
Bryan.
On nearly every important Ques-
tion President Roosevelt is in ae-
cord with the Democrats. He be-
lieves in the regulation of railroads
and railroad rates, the prosecution
of illegal combinations and trusts,
the income tax and arbitration OF
both international troubles and
dissensions between labor and cap
ital. These are all Democratic be-
liefs, and have been endorsed by
the Democratic party and have
been in the platform of that party
for the last fifteen years.
But Mr.. Bryan was denounced
for advocating these policies, while
Mr.. Roosevelt is appIauded for
trying TO put them into effect. Mr..
Roosevelt acknowledges that the
tariff should be revised, but he
lacks the courage of his convlc.
tions on that one issue, because he
is practical politician first and
knows that the tariff is all that
keeps the Republican party in
power. 1t produces the campaign
fund.

New police regulations just
adopted in Tucson contain two
paragraphs that ought to be en-
forced here, and in every other
community in the land. Here
they are:
"Officers shall be particular not
to draw or present their weapons
on slight or insufficient cause. A
police officer is armed for self pro.
lection because his duties are haz
ardous. His right to use his pis,
tol is only the same which might
lawfully be exercised by any citi'
zen under like circumstances.
"Firing his pistol on the public
thoro ughfare to trighten fugi-
tive or to signal an alarm is only
permissible under extraordinary
circumstances. There is no ex,
cuse for an officer to use his pis-
tol except that he be in danger of
bis life or when necessary to stay
the progress OF an escaping felon,
but in no case to endanger the lives
of innocent people"
