FIRE BURNS MILL AT STORM CLOUD
 MINES Destroys Shaft House HoiStS And
 Shop

Fire destroyed the hoisting plant, nOist house, gallows frame, pump house, blacksmith shop and four stamp mill, and mill building at the camp of the H. J. Beemer Company on one of the storm Cloud group of mines at o'clock. Sunday morning. The origin of the eonhagration is unknown. The loss is estimated at 5000, uncovered by insurance.
 The fire was discovered by J. B. Valdrini, foreman of the mine, who was aroused at 8 o'clock by what he believed was an explosion. Looking out of his window he saw the hoist building in flames. He gave the alarm and both shifts of miners asleep In camp rushed to the scene of the con migration. The fire was soon beyond control and despite the desperate ef- forts of the miners from the Cash mine and other camps, soon had the buildings consumed and the machinery damaged beyond repair.
 Superintendent J. E. Houlihsn of the H. J. Beemer Company stated yes terday that arrangements for the i'm mediate equipment of the mine will be made and work resumed as soon as the machinery is in place and housed.
 The shaft is now almost filled with water. Superintendent Houlihan re- grets that a erOsseut being run from the 275 foot level to a cross vein had not reached the vein when work was stopped by the fire. The erosseut is in 375 feet. Surveyors estimates show that the parallel vein will be reached 9 feet farther ahead

 The sheriff's office was notified i'm mediately by telephone, and Deputy Sheriff c. C. Keeler hastened to the Hogue home, but no trace of the in- truder could be found. A sharp search was made by the officers yesterday, but no 'elde that might lead to the identity of the thief was found.

Editorial Comment
ABILITY, NOT POLITICS.

With presidential and other appoint aents it is a matter of dissatisfaction
 with some people no matter who the Sppointee is. It's ease of Bslaam
 and his ass. In the late Territorial
 appointments by the president the southern residents-or rather poll tieians-appears to be aggrieved,
 "BOre" because Prescott and Phoenix have been so generously dealt with by M. Taft. This sentiment at any rate iB reflected by the Bisbee Review and 1one other publications. The former vents its feeling in this wise: "Ip the matter of the late Territorial ap- 9ointments, the people of southern Arizona will never be satisfied; not that this dissatisfaction exists with or against the appointees as individ- aals, but against the hoggishness of the localities from which the said ap- pdntments have been or are to be made. This exhibits the thread bare plea of political pie division which has done So much to disrupt orthodox parties, state and national, for years past. When it comes to appointments either by the president or by the state or Territorial governors, the man and not hs politics should be first given consideration. If President Taft has made clear one ruling characteristic it is his desire to select the Attest men of whose personal qualifications ne is most familiar. That Prescott and Phoenix should have been the homes or headquarters of the men the presi- dent selected is no reflection upon the good people of the southland, but sim ply an incident There were no poll tics evident in these appointments ex cept, perhaps, to break a deadlock in Territorial politics which the parti- sans of the Territory could not of themselves break. The fact that or thodox Republicans and Democrats | have had not word of protest as to the personal qualifications, ability or trustworthiness of the recent ap- pointees is the very best evidence of their especial fitness to fill the offices to which they were appointed and is most certainly a handsome compliment to the wisdom, tact and honesty of purpose of our president.

CONGRESSIONAL PARsIMoNY

One of the most difficult things those statesmen who opposed increased compensation for the president have to explain is why they did not vote to cut off their own mileage when their salaries were increased from $5,OOO to S 7,500 a year. The rate of increase for the president and for members of congress was the same, and both were justified on the score of increased cost of living. Under the act of March I, 1907, allowing the president $25,OOO a year for travelling expenses the presi- dent was to be reimbursed only for the sums actually expended by him in travel. Senators and representatives draw twenty cents a mile each way from their homes to Washington, though the cost of travel is nothing like that amount
 Even if congress doesn't restore the allowance, President Taft will do con- siderable travelling this summer, though it is considered doubtful if he will undertake a journey to the Pacific coast. When the president travels he must take along with him a retinue of clerks and attendants and the ex- penses are enormous. Though MT. Taft is fond of travel and has travelled more than any other man who ever oc. eupied the White House, he doesn t feel that ne can afford to indulge largely in this luxury and foot the bills out of his own pocket.

REVENUE LOSSES.

The most careful estimates in com
 pairing the present tariff revenues with the aggregate amount that will accrue from the revised Payne bill as 1t is
 likely to pass the senate reveals the
 fact that the total revenues of the government will be at least 20,000,- 900 less than now. This being a known fact, it will be>up to the senate finance committee to devise some means of making up this deficit. The loss of eight per cent on tea alone made loss of s7,0o0,000; striking out the eoun- tervailing duty on coffee engendered loss approximating sl5,00o,00o, and taking out the eountervailing proyiso on lumber and petroleum means lost opportunity to increase the revenue several millions of dollars. Free hides in addition to injuring the cattle in dustry means q further revenue loss of about s3,000,000 annually. The in- heritanee tax as provided for in the Payne bill appears to be good for at least S2,000,00O, but the principal source of revenue resulting from the Payne provisions are the duty on wom- en s and children's gloves and hosiery. Cocoa, now free, will be taxed cents pound. The Philippine free sugar provision will cause another loss of thousands but this is somewhat offset by the lifting of the duties from ex- ports shipped from the United States to these islands.
 Unless some radical changes are made in the senate it appears a fore gone conclusion that the Payne bill will result not only in a radical de parture from traditional protection, but end in q large revenue deficit. i If there could be placed very small tax on congressional talk, not only | would a much greater amount of bus mess be transacted, but the deficit in revenue would more than be provided | for.

NATIONS TRADE BALANCE.

In l907 the imports into the United
 States amounted to $933, 100000 fol the first eight months, and the exports to 2S9,00O, 900, showing a balance of trade in our favor of s356,OOO,OOO.
 For 1908, the same eight months, the imports were $s42, 100000 and the ex- ports $l,356,OOO, showing balance in our favor of $5l4,OOO,OOO.
 For the eight months of the fiscal year ending with February of this year the imports were $8l6,O00, ,O0O, the smallest amount in the three years, and the exports amounted to $1,157,- 100000, also the lowest figure in the three years, but still leaving a balance in our favor of $341, 100000. The sum of balances in our favor for the three years. amounted to $1,2l1 100000.
 During these eight months there have been shipped out of the country in gold something over sl0O,0O0,O0O. This is said to represent about the amount drawn from Europe eighteen months ago when the panic spread all over this country, and the shipment arc supposed to be in liquidation of loans made then. What became of the credit we built up, amounting in round numbers to $3OO,OOO,OOO a year, is the puzzle of all financial students.

PREACHER OF SOUND DOCTRINE

The farther away from us MT. Harri-
 man gets the longer, the more explicit,
 and the more interesting are his pub
 lie addresses. An address q day is
 rather in excess of the ordinary rout-
 inc of former President Roosevelt,
 whose preachers mantle seems to have
 fallen on MT. Hartman, save that the
 Hartman sermons deal with the eco
 homie rather than with the social fac
 tors of human life, are the sueeint truths expressed Dy the San Francisco Chronicle.
 MT. Hartman is taking the right course. He is personally presenting his side of the ease directly to the whole people rather than presenting it secretly, through agents, to legislators. It would have been better for all the great interests if they had adopted that plan years ago. All the economic interests of the masses of the people are bound up in the prosperity of our great industrial and transportation cor porations. Without the work which they have done such development as we have beheld during the past few years and which continues to go on would be impossible. Work has been done which was utterly beyond the power of any private individual or any corporation such as We could have imagined twenty years ago. Nor could such instrumentalities have been created or be operated after their ere ation except by men of comprehensive sound judgment and power full will, such as rarely appear and can never be known save through the pro cess of a struggle for supremacy. It is well for the people to hear what such men say and to think about it.
 MT. Hartman is right in. saying that protection of capital invested in rail roads must go hand in hand with the public regulation of railroads. And that protection would be given if peo- ple could only know where to protect md where to regulate.

FAMILIES DECREASING.

From 17s0, when the first United
 States census was taken, to 1900, the
 year of the latest census, the size of
 the average American family dropped
 from 5.S to 4.6 persons. Some inter
 esting deductions are drawn from these
 figures by Chief Clerk W. 8. Rossiter of the census bureau.
 For one thing the ratio of children to women over 16 years of age has been cut in half during the 11O-year period. The United States, it is shown, aided by immigrants from all parts of the world, is now maintaining ratio of children practically the same as saown by Great Britain. Ger many and Italy, the deduction being that population conditions here are tending to become more in harmony with those obtaining in other civil ized countries.
 It doubtless will surprise those not in the habit of reveling In figure and the compilation of statistics to learn, as pointed out by the census reports in question, that had the average size of families remained the same in 1900 as in l790 the country would have a na- tive population greater by 20,000,00O persons. According to the compiler of the report, "it may be claimed that the people of the United States have that they are only about half as well able to rear children, at ! my rate without personal sacrifice, lnder the conditions which prevailed | n 1890 as their predecessors proved to be under conditions pre- -ailing in 179O."
 The increasing movement toward the .ities is responsible in large measure, n the opinion of the census officials, or the decreasing size of families. Apartment house and flat life does not ncourage rearing of large families, Fhile the struggle for existence in ities is more exhausting than under he conditions usually prevailing in ural districts.

A man, whose name was not learned. was found dead in bed in the Walker hotel at : o'clock last night, death presumably resulting from ptomaine poisoning.
