We Trust Our Future
 to the Legislature

From a distance it would appear that our friends of Bisbee are preparing to take snap judgment on Tombstone We are informed that the Copper City now has at Phoe- nix a strong lobby whose aim it is to have enacted a law to permit aliens to exercise the prerogative of voters. That is, outside owners and stock holders who are interested in mining and other enterprises, be permitted to sign petitions for county seat removal or county segregation, the re- mOval of the court house from Tombstone to Bisbee being the stroke that actuates the gentlemen in this clandestine piece of legislation.
 We are of the opinion thaI the reople of Cochise county including many old timers 0 Bisbee, will re sent this under handed method of increasin, realty values for a few hy tn obliteration of something hel' in esteem as a monument |

that 1t is time strenuous efforts being

by some individuals in this county, it certainly
better disappointment find that their efforts had
been largely wasted. That their complaints should
be utterly ignored is an injustice that deserves
severe condemnation. The attitude of the tele-

when compared with the manner in which it has

IS IT FAIR TREATMENT

From the many expressions of approval of the
recent criticism this paper made regarding the tele
phone service in this county, it was evidently merit
el. That the service here is what 1t should be,
cannot be gainsaid, and it is time some heroic
efforts being made by the local manager to
better it. There Is reason why the people here
should not receive good service in other towns;
they pay the same price for the service, and it is
only human nature that they should register COM
plant when they feel that they not getting value

the telephone company with great consideration,
the ranchers have done much to extend the line into
the country and justly indignant at the treat

generally throughout the county.

spent $4,000 to build lines to their houses,

Who Owns American.

For their own purposes. the maya
zine muckrakers have chosen to con-
fuse corporation control with corpora
ton ownership. The millions of a
trade combination. for the sake of the
argument and the rhetoric of title,
are generously shoveled into the cot.
fers of = small group of men. sWho
owns America asked one of the
magazine geniuses of fantasy. The
implication was that the men whose
portraits were reproduced in the arti-
Gle were the owners. At best they
merely had control. And stock con-
troll, as it has been shown in scores
of instances, is a thing as uncertain
as political popularity.
The population of the United States,
it is estimated, Is now about 96,000,-
900, counting in the islands. OF these
human creatures twenty millions pos
sess stock in corporations, or close
upon one-fifth. If all enterprises, all
ownership and wealth in the country
were reduced to corporate shares, the
real owners of America would not be
the bald-headed gentlemen the muck
raker parades for your delectation, but
those who, by justice and right, are
supposed to own America-the people.
The corporation is not perfect sys-
tenn of partnership division. 1t has,
in recent years. been exploited by the
INSCRIPTIONS just as it has been as un-
scrupulously attacked by other wor-
thies. But the corporation represents
an advance in the distribution of
wealth. Ii cannot, in its imperfect
sGte, be expected to last for all time,
but until something better in the way
of dispensing profits and distributing
labors is devised, it must serve. In
the meantime there is no reason to
stampede every time an irresponsible
magazine thinks it has found a new
heap OF muck.-Minneapoli Journal.

also has suggested that holders of
