The scene of this shrine to military
fame is, appropriately enough, the ma
ftional capitalize city of Washing
ton, which is coming year by year to
take on more and more the character
of beautiful creation in architecture
and sculpture and landscape garden
ing that is the property of the whole
people. The statues to the victors in
the struggle between the north and
south occupy conspicuous positions in
the most advantageously located of
the parks and circles with which the
seat of government abounds-verdure-
clad breathing spaces which seem as
though they might have been special
ly provided as sites for just such he
roic or life-size figures. Some of the
statues are under the shadow of the
capitol, others cluster about the White
House, and yet others are placed
where they will kindle inspiration in
the patriotic pilgrim to the capital.
Much of the impressiveness of the
statues to the military heroes of the
Federal armies is doubtless due to the
fact that almost all of them are eques-
trian. 1t is customary in all countries
to portray as men on horseback"
only the so-called royal personages, or
men who were actual commanders of
troops, or enjoyed the title of COM
mander. The first equestrian statue
ever erected in the Western Hem
isphere, was the one of George III. of
England, which stood in Bowling
Green at the foot of Broadway, New
York city, and which during the war
for independence was melted up and
cast into bullets by patriotic daugh-
tiers of Miss Columbia.
The oldest equestrian monument
now standing in the New World is
colossal statue of Charles w. of Spain,
in the City of Mexico. The initial
equestrian statue in the United States
IS the renowned one of Gen. Andrew
Jackson, which stands in the park d.
rectly in front of the White House at
Washington. 1t Is estimated that there
are 400 equestrian statues in the
world, of which number the city on
the Potomac will have, with the com.

of IL. most of them representations of
Civil war heroes.
The first statue arranged for in
honor of a warrior identified with
the Civil war was that in which Gen.
Winfield Scott is depicted mounted on
a charger at rest. This monument
was ordered In 1867, and was erected
seven years later. General Scott Is
in the uniform of lieutenant general.
The material for the figures of horse
and rider was derived from cannon
captured during the Mexican war in
which General Scott won his greatest
fame The pedestal for this statue is
made up of five huge pieces of granite
cut in Cape Ann quarries, and at the
time they were obtained, the largest
pieces OF granite ever cut from quar-

over amendments to them. We make

The supreme court confirms this law

and declares another law or another
amendment unconstitutional. And
so we go zigzag. A president pro-
poses a new set of laws or amend

that the Goldfield Consolidated has
complaints to make on this score.
The outside would scarcely be aware
OF the matter, If an occasional inter
view did not crop out. such as that
which George wingfield is said to
have given a few days at Goldfield.
When the president OF the Consoli
dated remarked that the mining
company could get along without
Goldfieid better than Goldfield could
get along without the Consolidated,
ia became apparent that local
politics and local industry we're on
The best OF terms. Says the Mining
Record.
It woald appear that Mr.. Wing
field considers it difficult to get
jury to convict persons charged with
'hish-grading7 at the Consolidated
mines. because a certain prejudice
has been instilled into the minds of
the citizens by politicians. Who the
politicians are is of no consequences
II is just like the old story that one
hears in the large cities: the public
"has it in for" tie traction company.
This sounds familiar. and those who
are interested in mining cannot avoid
regreting the appearance Of this
antagonism between large Pre-
DUNG company and any section Of
the community. It often happens that
the corporation is insolent toward the
peoples rights. and it may be that
Goldneld Consolidated is not without
fault. It would seem that the op-
ponents Of the mining company have
the best of the argument when it
is urged that the Consolidated trans
ferred its milling interests to q
second corporation in order to reduce
its state bullion FAX.
Mr. Wingneld's remedy, suggested
in his interview, is one that would
doubtless increase the tension and
end with forcing the Consolidated to
dip into politics for a certainty. TIE
remedy is the establishment % a
company town and supply houses for
the use Of its employees; that is to
compete with the Goldfleld mer-
chants in their own territory; to
punish them for siding with politi-
clans who criticise the mining com
pany. And what good would this
do that would not be counterbalanced
by the greater opposition that It
would have so much more difficulty
in protecting its interests. More

1t seems. after all, that Cannon was
merely the scapegoat. the convenient

public resentment without regard to

The Review has no doubt that the
people Of Arizona fully realize that

victims Of the greatest political bunco
game ever perpetrated in the South

have become sickening to the voters
of the territory.
It ought to be evident now. if it
never was before. that Arizona's only
hope lies in the democratic party, and
that the only way to realize the hope
is through a democratic majority.

tiers to learn this lesson through the
