i that this somewhat discouraging characteristic is, in some cases at least. also shared by heroism. The other day Q brave man jumped into the river and saved the life of a man who had fallen into the water from a dock. The man whose life he saved was a worthless hobo who was in the habit of loafing on the dock and who had rolled into the river while taking a snooze. In saving the hobo's life the heroic rescuer dropped his wallet. contain ing S100 into the muddy and swiftly flowing waters of the Hudson. Talk about bad luck,
 It has happened more than once that a man shot some inoffensive person mistaking him for a burglar. but a new record was established by a Brooklyn man the other night when he shot himself. believing that he was shooting a burglar. He awoke during the night and hearing some slight noise, probably caused by mice, jumped to the conclusion that there was a burglar in his room. Cautiously he reached for his gun and with his finger on the trig- ger, peered intentIy through the semidarkness of the room. Looking toward the foot end of his iron bed he saw something white that looked to him like the hand of man cIutching one of the iron rails. He challenged the supposed intruder and receiving no answer, fired at the white object which he imagined to be the burglars hand His aim was true and with a howl of pain he dropped the gun, for he had shot off one Of the toes of his own foot which he had mistaken for the bur glars hand.
 According to census just completed by Commissioner Stover of the De partment of Parks, there are II a2s trees in New York City. exclusive of those in the parks from the Battery To ISZd Street. The commissioner made this census tc enable him to estimate what funds are needed fer the care of the trees neSt ycar The allowance at present is s25. 900 wear. ly. which IS no- sufficient however to permit the planuag of additional trees.
 United States District Attorney Henry A. Wise of this city has an pointed Raymond c. Brown. a blind man, a member of his staff of as sistants. Mir. Brown is A graduate Of the Harvard Law cchool and is reported to be young lawyer of ex. cepuonal ability He will be en- pioyed in the preparation of cases dr- Brown prepares his papers on ! typewriter, having citation from the authorities read to him. This ia probably the first time that a blind man was ever appointed to a public position of similar importance in the United States and shows what nat ural ability and relentless persever- ance may accomplish in overcoming the handicap of even so serious a physical defect as is blindness.

Congress has not appropriated enough money to put the system in operation in all leading cities and .centers. This failure to allow suiil- cient funds is hardly defensible. and when the next session opens there should be no delay in allowing the needed amount. The Postofice De partment is perhaps right fin going about the establishment of the sys- tenn gradually. but the law contem- plates that postal savings banks shall be general throughout the Uni. ted States, and any failure to bring this about will draw criticism on the administration and on Congress.
 It is now pretty generally conced ed that the postal savings banks are going to operate to the good of the country and bring much money out of hiding and put it into the chan, nels of business. The sooner the system is generally established and the sooner the experimental stage is passed the better it will be. The postal savings bank has come to stay and it should not be hampered by lack of funds or in any other way

HOW CONGRESS DOES NOT PRACTICE ECONOMY.

The official figures of the Senate and House appropriations commit tes on the expenditures of the ses- sion of Congress recently closed show that retrenchment in one di
 rection is more than balanced by outlay in some other direction. The grand total of appropriations last session of the sixtieth Congress
 season was s1.O27.sOI .s29. as com
 pared with s1.O44.401,s5 in the last When, in addition to the appropria
 tions actually made, the contracts authorized to be entered into are taken into account it is seen that the grand total of the appropriations and contract liabilities for the session

NEW YORK, Au. 13.-As the work of arranging and tabulating the sta tistics obtained at the last United States census progresses, bulletins appear in print from time to time, giving some Of the cities, particularly in the West, a welcome opportunity 10 crow over the marvellous growth of their population since the last previous census. Of course, that is all very good and the figures, in some cases, are really surprising, but. after all, it must not be for gotten that the East too has a few cities of quite respectable size and population. There is, for instance, New York. Not that the city in tends to brag of it's size, population and strenuous activity-far from it, for New Workers are nOtoriously modest-but merely to show that in Gotham too there is something do ing" a few interesting figures have been prepared by a local statistician, In accordance with these statistics of the daily life of New York there are every second two telephone calls, and every two seconds an arrest ; every 90 seconds an immigrant lands; every minute 40 tons of coal are burnt; every 13 minutes there is a marriage; every hour a fatal accident: every hour and 24 minutes a fire; every eight hours a divorce. and every ten hours a sui eide. Now, let some other city in the United States come forward and beat that recordi
 An interesting school board cleo ton was held in Manhasset, L. L, the other day in which William A. Warren, the head coachman of MT Harry Payne Whitney. defeated Stephen H. Mason, a multimillionaire resident of Manhasset, who was a candidate for reelection. The some what surprising outcome of the cleo tion was principally due to two req. sons. One was that Warren carried on a strenuous campaign and even furnished ample transportation facil fties to the polling place for the voters of the town, while his oppo nent refused to solicit votes. The other reason was that Warren is the father of a large family-of which fact he made the most extensive use as a campaign argument-while his opponent, although married, has nc children.
 Equally interesting was the school board election at Tarrytown, where many wealthy and socially prominent New Workers have their residences These two tickets were in the field the regular ticket and a "woman's ticket" strongly advocated by the women suffragists of the town. Al though the women made frantic eff forts to win and used persuasion and their automobiles liberally, theil ticket was defeated by a vote o more than f to 1.
 Efforts are being made among ths Roman Catholics of this city to raise funds for the erection and mainte nance of a church for deaf mutes ir which the service is to be read ana the sermons delivered in the sigl language. There are several thou sand deaf mutes in New York City about 1000 of them belonging to tn, Roman Catholic church It is ex pected that the protestant churche
 will eventually unite in a simiIa keffort for the benefit of the Prot estant deaf mutes.

GEORGIA FOR THE INCOME TAX.

Georgia has somewhat upset cal
 culations on the income tax question
 by the action of her State Senate ir
 passing a resolution ratifying the amendment. The lower branch oi the Georgia Legislature went on re cord a year ago by a very large ma. jority in favor of the adoption of the constitutional provision and undoubt- edly has not undergone a change of sentiment since. The House action of last year was sent to the Senate few days before adjournment and the Senate declined to dispose of the question in the limited time left for it's consideration. The action of the Georgia Senators was severely criticised throughout the country and in the light of subsequent events much of that criticism was justified. for the failure of Georgia to ratify was used extensively by the oppon- ents of the income tax in their ap- peals to the legislatures of other States. And the effect Of that ar gument is not to be underestimated.
 The Legislature of Georgia was in session when the amendment was sent by Congress to the States Be ing a Democratic commonwealth and having the first opportunity to pass on a Democratic measure of such great magnitude the failure of the Georgia Legislature was disappoint- ing and disheartening to Democrats everywhere. While 1t would have been better, undoubtedly. to have passed the amendment last year there is something in the claim that the Senate did not feel justified in passing on the question without giv- ing it thorough consideration, and the action of this year will do much to put Georgia in line with public sentiment. When the Georgia legis- lature has acted eight States will have approved the amendment Thir- ty-six are required to give Congress direct constitutional power to levy an income tax.
 l The following States, in adition to Georgia, have ratified the amend.
 ment-Alabama, Illinois, Kentucky
 Maryland. Mississippi, Oklahoma and
 South Carolina.
 In six other States the amend
 ment has been temporarily laid aside
 as was the case in Georgia 1util the reversal of the Senate's posiuGH Two more States-Texas and Yer mOnt-will have an opportunity tC
 vote on it before the close of the present year. Texas is meeting ir extraordinary session and the Legis [ lature of Vermont convenes in regu lar session in October.

 amendment. Massachusetts voted i
 down in both houses and in Rhode } Island it was crushed by a vote ti | was unanimous or nearly so.-Nat { ional Monthly.

THE COUNTY
 CONVENTION.

CONVENTION.
 The delegates to the democratic county convention which will mee in Douglas on August goth have ar important duty imposed upon them to perform for their party and TOT inc people of Arizona The ten dele gates to be nominated for the con stitufional convention will be pledged bv the county convention. Great care and denberation should mark inc framing and adoption of the ,,Iatform. People of Arizona de- plore the huniliating restrictions sur rounding the enabling act passed bv a republican congress but we must face the conditions and cope with the situation as best we may under the cicumstances- We hope in see the county convention declare in favor of the principle Of the Initiative and Referendum, the Re call. the direct primary law the election of senators by the people a declaration in favor of the in come tax. a campaign publicity law and a corrupt practices act On those provisions, however, which we are informed will meet with repub- lican opposition in congress, when OUT constitution comes before that body for approval the Review be- Iieves the democrats of Cochise county should declare in favor of submitting these questions as separ- ate provisions to the people to be incorporated in the body of the constitution by their majority vote In this manner the principle of the initiative and referendum will be carried out in the beginning and will become a part of the constitution written there by a majority of the qualified voters of Arizona. Con gress would hesitate to oisapprove a constitution, the important pro visions of which had been written separately by a referendum vote of the people. We maintain that the safe course for the democrats to pursue upon those provisions which have been placed in doubt by re publican threats of disapproyal, is to have those provisions submitted separately and afford the voters the opportunity of deciding thest important questions.
 The ultimate goal to be achieved is statehood. We must not lose sight of that. Often discretion i' the better part of valor. The demo crats of Arizona should not furnish the republicans the weapons whicl they would eagerly seize to defea statehood neither should the demo crats fail to listen to the voice O a majority of their party in affordinl the people an opportunity of writ ing those provisions into the con stitution which the people want The referendum principle affords tn democrats the safest way to dea with these questions In the even that congress should disapprove tn constitution, on account of any c these provisions. it would assume tn position before the world Of deny ing to a majority of the people c a state the right of self government
