UNEQUAL APPoRTIoNmENT.
Florence Rladel

S.l
 The constitutional convention has not yet arrived at an equitable ap- portionment Of representation in the legislature. The representation in congress Is apportioned among the states in accordance with their popu lauon, not with their voting strength The same Is true of legislative repre- sentation in all the states, and this is the only equitable system of appor- uoning representation. The entire population is ent tied to equal par. ticipation in the benefits of govern. ment, hence representation must be based on equal units of population, to be just and fair. The appOrtionment now under consideration-or perbsns adopted at thi swriting, by the con sutuuonal convention is a departure from all precedents For instance Glla county. with a population of l6,160, is given five representatives In the legislature, while Pinal county. with a population of 9045, is given only two representatives. Under this apportionment every 1856 people in Gila county are given a representative In the legislature, while in Pipal county every 4522 people are given a representative. Yuma county, with a population of 7733 is given three representatives, or a represe entatiye for each 2577 of populat on. Graham, with 1000 less population than has Pinal, is also given three representa- lives in the legislature. What kind or equality in representation do you call that?

SOUTHWEST WILL BLOOM.
(El Paso Times.)

Irrigation pumps and a comparative ly shallow underground water supply will word a phenomenal agricultural development trrouehout a large DOT tion of the great Southwest. Develop ment along that The Is one of the most hopeful indications of the ft1 ture for those sections where the res ervoir plan is not practicable. Ey- cry well drilled and every pump started means just that much more Southwestern prosperity.

BAD HABIT FOR BOYS.
Duncan Arfzonian.) ]

The worst habit that boys can fall into is loafing around the streets at night It is then they cast their lot in slippery places, when at any mo ment they are likely to fall from grace. All good and noble lessons taught them by their mothers are there enumerated and nulliied. They learn nothing that is good-hut everything had. The boys who spend

DOUGLAS IS AHEAD.
(Tucson Citlzen.l

Phoenix and Douglas are far ahead Of Tucson in one important particu- lar. There is thriving Y. NJ c. A. with a home of its own in both the cap tal and the Shelter City. This emans that these two cities can ap- peal to the homeseeker with an argu- ment that Tucson lacks. How long before Tucson will supply this need?

"LET THE PEOPLE RULE"
 (Swansea TimeS.)

The constitutional "conventers" seem to be convening most inconveni. ently for their own peace of mind. One good tn ng they are doing, is the slaughtering. It is better to leave out all the junk that has been heaped up with the hopes of satisfy. ing the multitudinous hobbies of the delegates. Whatever the people want they can get with the initiative and referendum. What they crowd into the constitution now will be for the most part the desire of a few, and the people will not get an opportunity to decide whether they want t or not. The crowding of every little hobby into the constitution Is in di. rect opposition to the spirit of the in. itiative and referendum in that ;t forestalls the expression of the peo pie on these points.

HURTING FL PAso.
(El Paso Times.)

That the disorders in Mexico have assumed larger proportions than an ticipated cannot be doubted, nor can it be concealed that conditions in that country are serious and are already working incalculable injury to Ameri- can investments and American inter ests generally-El Paso feeling more keenly the i'll effects perhaps, than any other American city because of the extent of business relations with the northern and west coast sections of the re public.
 So far injury to American interests have beCl the result of interruptions of operat ions and obstruction of plans and proposed enterprises. That it will take years to reassure capitai that was being freely interested i1 these enterprises and induce 1t to fur ther invest in order to complete tho plans and great enterprises undertak- en. goes without saying and this means the wreCking of many fortunes

RENEWED ACTIVITY. (El Paso TimeSl

tE<l T dSu
 There appears to be renewed ac. tivity throughout the min ing centers of the Southwest and many new vlaims are being developed in the mineral sections. There is intending wealth in these Southwestern hills and mountains and each additional nine opened up becomes an import ant factor in Southwestern progress and development.
 GOOD PLACE FOR LoUNGERs.
 (Arizona Star)
 If some of the loungers who deeo- rate the street corners and public re- sorts of this city could be forced into the mountains it would be well for both themselves and Tucson. There are hundreds of good mines yet undiscovered which offer an op. portunity to all out of employment and caring to work.

PRESS COMMENT

The convention is disposing of nu merous unsafe propositions in g manner that is creditable to it's in. telligence. and it looks at present. as though there might be a first class organic law dug out of the present mass of absurdities.

TUCSON CITY ELECTION.
(Tucson Citizen.


 Voters in the com ng municipal cam paign would find it of material as- s stance in reaching conclusions as to candidates if the latter would enlight- en the public as to where they stand with respect to certain public prob lens that yitally affect the welfare Of this community. For example, the average citizen is emphatic in his de- mand for strict enforcement of the liquor laws. espec ally those relating to minors. This same average citi- zen Is equally as emphatic in his demand that the saloon shall be elim. mated for all time from politics.
 The honest merchant and the ulti- mate consumer is interested in hon est we ghts and measures. And yet today honest business in this city is without the protection of a weights and measures ordinance.

Yale's First Indian Graduate.

New Haven, Conn, June 22.-In
the class of nearly 800 graduates
who received their diplomas today
at the annual commencement exer-
cises of Yale University the three
who attracted most attention were
Robert Alphonso Taft, son of the
President; Cheng-Bing Thomas Wang
of Ningpo, China, and Henry Red
Cloud of the Winnebago tribe of In
dams. The last-named is the first
American Indian ever to graduate
from Yale.
The formal exercises of commence
ment day began at 10 o'clock this
morning. In accordance with GUS
tom, they included the singing of the
first four verses of the Sixty-fifth
Psalm, which was sung in 171S on
the occasion of the opening of the
first college erected in New Haven.
The dinner of the alumni in the
university dining hall followed the
commencement exercises. At the
conclusion of the dinner there was
an elaborate program of toasts and
responses, including a greeting from
President Taft.
