II our friends of the cotton zone are
long-headed they will do two things in
1910 that they ought TO do. They will
remember the 15-cent cotton Of 1903
and plant a greater acreage Of the
white staple than they planted this
year. And they will attend TO the
raising of stock as well as to the
growing Of the cereal crops. We never
shall have cheaper beef, judging from
the present outlook. until the
farmers OF the South and East
Ike those of the West and South

the stuff that they are to consume a

rfanism IS not yet and the day o
South American beef, though coming
is not decided. Intelligent farmers al
over the land are aiming, so far a
possible. TO feed their families OF tn

Is a Safety Razor

Is a safety razor a deadly weapon

Start that Christmas shopping bright

it over with before the best things are
picked out in the hurTy-scurry or late
December trading. There never was
better weather for holiday buying;
there never was a finer selection to
be obtained in Pensacola stores. The
merchants and their clerks mean TO
give you a square deal all the time;
but they will not deny, if you ask
them. that you are absolutely certain
of it il you do your trading the first

Key West has the bolito players on
IRE run and this is well. The amount
of money the sharpers who conduct
this game have taken out of profitable
circulation is considerable and it's
high time the city government got
after them with a sharp stick. The
new administration in Key West seems
determined to administer a salutary
cleaning to the city down there on the
Florida keys, as well as to buy better
sidewalks and streets out of that very
substantial bond issue which was
voted the other day. Better streets
and walks and less bolito will work
together for good in the physical and
moral improvement of Key West. The
county authorities are working witt
those of the city in this energetic
cleansing process and already many o
the gamblers have been worried Ou

Dr. Perrin Wins Out

Washington, June 2S.-Attorney General Wickersham today refused to send to the senate the file in the department of justice relating to the trial of Dr. E. B. Perrin of Ari- zona, charged with conspiracy to defraud the government in Califor- nia timber land cases. The data was demanded in connection with the nomination of Robert T. Dev- lin as United States attorney for the northern district of California The senate committee on judiciary decided today to put over the Dev- lin nomination until the next reg ular session of congress. It Is doubt ful if Devlin's nomination will then be confirmed unless the data de- manded of the department of jus tice Is furnished. Perrin is at pres ent on his ranch in Arizona. He is a prominent citizen of that ter ritory, living most of the time at his home in Williams.

UNRELIABLE newspaper reporters make unreliable newspapers and if one watches the dailies of the southwest and keeps track of the Arizona dispatches he will find them, at least, one-half untrue. And the other ne-half one finds that the truth has been recklessly handled. Very often the news paper publishing the dispatch gets the blame although in most cases the management of the paper is as innocent as a lamb. Of course it has to be admitted that there are one or two daily papers in the south west that would rather publish a rotton lie, if sensational, than any thing else.

Saw a Meteor

A large meteor was visible in the eastern sky Tuesday evening about g o'clock. It was very brilliant and lasted for fully thirty seconds. Evidently the same meteor was seen by some Prescott residents. who claim to have heard the sound of the mass as it struck the ground, although nothing of that kind was heard in Wickenburg. There is talk in Prescott of organizing a party to prospect for the place of landing, as it seemed to those who saw and heard it to have been not so far away.-Wickenburg Miner.

An Unfortunate Provision

It is an unfortunate provision of federal constitution which makes it impossible for the president to veto certain items in an appropriation bill. This lack of power has led many a president to approve a measure containing a number of improper provisions because it was important to the country that the entire bill should not fail. Most of the states authorizes their govern ors to veto individual items in the appropriation bills, or budgets, and in some of them there is even com- plaint that the governor has not the power to cut down without striking out individual items. Un- fortunately, apparently, the fram- CTS of the constitution too greatly feared increasing the powers of the executive to prevent to their con- ferring this power on him.-Ex.

THE VALUE OF SPANISH

''It is stated that sixty nine mem bers of the next junior class in the Scientific School at Yale have elected the study of Spanish in preference to German and French. The choices are mainly in the en- gineering branches, and made in view of prospective future work, notably mining, in Spanish Ameri- can countries or regions near them. "
 The above, says an exchange, tells story that every young Ari- zonan should stop for a moment and think about.
 Just south of us is a great unde- veloped territory. brimming with mineral, agricultural and business opportunities are being opened up The key to enter this store house of riches is a knowledge of the Span ish language.
 Any Arizonan can acquire work ing knowledge of Spanish in a short time. Any Arizonan having that knowledge has a business asset which can be easily converted into cash. There are jobs in plenty, not only in Mexico, but in Arizona and throughout the southwest, for per sons who can speak Spanish. The person who can speak Spanish in this section of the country, has a considerable advantage in all busi ness and in all professions over persons who cannot.
 The opening of the Panama canal and the development of South America will increase the value of Spanish. This is today being re- cognized even more in the east than here, where a knowledge of both English and Spanish should be almost universal.
 We believe that every scholar in the schools of Arizona should be taught the Spanish language. We suggest that every parent of school boy or school girl consider this matter carefully in planning for the future of the young southwest erners.-Tucson Citizen.

Since the city council passed an ordinance removing the district almost beyond the city limits the denizens have been leaving the town one by one until today the city marshal reports that there is not one left.

WE do not believe that there is another city in Arizona where the reform movement has moved as fast as in Williams. Here the "red light" district went out of existance in thirty days; the number of saloons were reduced from twenty down to nine in about two years. Today young men who used to take pride in getting drunk are a thing of the past. With many other re- forms which have already arrived in Williams and many more that are headed this way there is not another town along the line where good people will find more desir- able place to live than right here.

CAMERON ON STATEHOOD

Washington, July 3.-FI have not the slightest doubt, in fact there is no doubt, that statehood for Ari- zona is assured before the adjourn ment of the congress which meets in December next. Even further, let me state that in my mind state hood for Arizona will be accom- plfshed before January 1, 1910. In all proba bility I shall introduce a statehood measure before the ad- iournment of the present extra ses- sion, and it is upon this bill that l know action will be taken by the regular session. l doubt if any op position to Arizona's admission will develop. Arizona will make an individual effort. Some opposition is likely to spring up against New Mexico, but none of the reasons for such opposition there exists in the slightest degree in the. case of Arizona"
 This statement was made by Del egate Ralph Cameron in response to request for his opinion. In- quiries among the republican lead CTS in both senate and house indi- cated that Cameron's prediction of the possible fulfllment of Arizona's ambition may be looked for. Pres ident Taft will urge long delayed justice in no uncertain terms in his message to congress.
 While the republicans are mani festing much interest in the possi- ble complexion of Arizona's initial delegation, it may be stated with earnestness that politics will cut little figure in the admission of statehood Public opinion through out the country in the matter of justice to Arizona has made itself so clear in Washington that he who runs may read.

That Col. Alex o. Brodie, former governor of Arizona, will return to the territory after he retires from the army, is the opinion of Attor- nev E. E.
