DEMOCRATS AS CONSTITUTION
MAKERS.

That some democrats are not good
constitution makers finds ample illus
| tratiOn in the proceedings of the
constitutional conventions of New
Mexico and Arizona, and, notably, in
the attitude of leading democrats in
favor of innovations and experiments
like the initiative and referendum.
In the New Mexico convention the
leading republicans sought to incor-
! porate in the constitution provisions
| for an appointed judiciary. following
the example of the federal govern
ment and the state of Massachusetts.
where the appointive system prevails
| But, having been forced to cOmpro-
! mise and accept an elective system.
they voted in favor of a term of
eight years for judges of the supreme
| court and salaries of $4,000 a year.
The democrats were compelled to &C
cept this but they tried hard to re-
duce the term to six years and the
salary to $1,000.
In the New Mexico convention it
has practically been settled that the
governor and nearly all the other
state officials shall serve during
terms of four years. The republicans
are in a majority in the New Mexico
convention. On the other hand. in
the ArizonaN convention controlled by
democrats. provision has been made
for term of only two years for The
governor and other state officials.
The distinction between these two
lines of policy may be clearly seen
The one advocated by the republicans
tends toward efficiency and strength
in the executive and independence in
the judiciary. whereas the one advo-
Gated by the democrats tends toward
weakness. inefficiency and subser-
viency to popular clamOr.
In taking the stand they have TAX
en- in these two conventions the dem
ocrats are showing themselves to be,
as President Harrison once said of
democrats in general, students of
maxims." They follow a theory and
sacrifice that efficiency which is es-
sential to good government under any
form. They fail to recognize or will
fully ignore the fact that the final
test OF any government is whether
II achieves the purpose of it's organ
iZation, and that ultimately the peo-
pie themselves will stand by the
proposition that what's best admin
istered is best"
If popular government shall ever
fail, it will be because the people
themselves become convinced that it
rails short of its true purpose. Ii

GROWING MORE FRUIT.

Figures relating to our foreign
commerce, compiled by the bureau of
statistics at Washington. show that
Uncle Sam is growing a lot more
raisins, prunes and oranges than he
ala few years ago. In 1890. for
instance, We imported prunes worth
Sl.75O.00O; in 1900 only $4,000 worth,
and this year we are importing even
less. There are reasons for believing
that the consumption of prunes has
not diminished. says the Pittsburg
Gazette. They are still as highly es-
teemed as ever for their nOurishing

houses of the land. One of the most
expensive hotels OF the metropolis

be flouted. The Maryland proposal
| the latest OF several adopted in the
south, was drawn with exceeding care
to avoid the almost inevitable conflict
with the fundamental law of the Unit
ed States, the discrimination applying
only to the balloting for state and
municipal officers. Otherwise it's as
sertion of the doctrine of state rights
in the premises is fragrant
The Maryland plan. in the form of
a constitutional amendment, was not to
have been cOnsummated until next
year. when the people were TO vote on
it, AS a preliminary expedient the pro-
posing act was contrived to eliminate
the negro registration. \ new general
registration was ordered with the
grandfather clause in operation. Three
Annapolis negroes were refused the Op-
portunity to register because of their
inability to comply with the provision
that they, or thsir fathers or grand
fathers. were eligible to vote in 1868
or before. This Illustrates the grand
father scheme; few negroes were voters
anywhere in the south in that day The
court did not take the Annapolis
registers severely to task for acting in
accordance with state law. but remind
ed them that, If the law we're void they
would have no valid defence for re-
fusing to permit the negroes to quail
fy as voters The court then proceeded
to declare that. in enforcing the dis
eliminating provisions. the registers
"were doing and intended to do, an act
forbidden by the supreme law of the
land; for doing which the state
statute could afford them no protection.
Conceivably il is possible to disfran-
chise negroes by a regulation referable
to some other test than race or color.
But, looking to the laws of Maryland
prior to January l, 1869, how can it
be said with any show Of reason that
any but the white man could vote
them" And how could the court chose
its eyes to the obvious fact that lit
is for that reason solely" that the pres
ent regulation has been framed? APP
parently this case is in such form that
with it a test of such discriminating
laws everywhere may be submitted to
the supreme court-Providence Journal.

Why Meat Fell.

1t does not make so much differ
the price of meats Though we OF
Phoenix know it only by hearsay). il
only the reduction will be permanent
There was apparently a valid reason
for the high prices a couple of months
ago. when the Breeders Gazette stated
that there were one million fewer cat
tie in the country than there were the
previous year and two million fewer
hogs. Also at that time it was stated
by the Gazette that more cattle and
hogs had passed through shipping
points than during a corresponding
period the year before, on account
the Gazette stated, of the drouth in
the northwest. Though the Gazette
did not predict a reduction in meat
prices, but on the other hand thought
they would go higher, that fact may
account for the reduction which has
come and for which the democrats are
taking credit.
The men in the meat business. how
ever, have another explanation. They
seem to think there is some connec-
ton between the price of corn and
the price of live stock. One of them
shows that a year ago corn was 81 a
bushel. That handsome price induced
farmers to sell their corn, which. of
course, had to be shipped to the mar
kets of the world. There has been a
big corn crop, and now corn is worth
only from As to so cents a bushel.
Therefore, says this meat producer.
farmers have renewed the raising of
stock, as it does not pay to ship the
grain at present figures.
In other words, great economic laws,
according to the well established ex
perience of mankind-not, except in
special cases, votes, politics and acts
of egislatures-determin the prices
of the necessaries of life. The law of
supply and demand especially is OPP
erative in these cases.
The farmers who raise corn, per-
haps. will not be so nightly pleased
at the falling off of prices as are
others who have no corn to sell. But
there is no doubt that the country in
the main will be benefited.

The Conventions Limitation.

Editor Warren of the Appeal to Rea-
son must be dissatisfied with the ex-
IRENE conservatism which has marked
the course of the Arizona constitu-
tional convention. He must think il
needs squirting to greater speed along
the progressive" road.
The desks of members were Uttered
yesterday with copies of his journal
of discomfort with things as they are
his prescription for things as they
ought to be, his messenger of the eX-
tremist radicalism which falls hardly
short of anarchy.
But Mr.. Warren must realize, what
ever may be the inclination of the
placed upon it. Its movements are
clogged by a president and a congress,
neither having sympathy with the
plans of the Appeal for the overturn-
ing of the established order.
The editor of the Appeal has evil
IDENTIFY heard that the convention is
coming his way, and he wishes to en-
courage it to come all the way. So
far his impression is largely errOne-
Gus, based upon the character of the
propositions which have been intro
duced, rather than upon those which
have been adopted
The Appeal and the convention, it
is true, are on all tours as to some
things; for instance, the initiative
and referendum and more especially
that feature of the recall measure
which applies to the judiciary. Mr.
Warren, if he is at all reasonable,
would hardly expect anything stronger
than that, considering the gauntlet
that is to be run by the constitution.

Matchmaking of Japanese

Mr.. Orio Tamura, as we will call
our young gentleman. is about twenty
years old. an article in the Wide
World says. He is an up-to-date Jap
anese, and has put off all thoughts Of
matrimony until this comparatively
late date-for Japan-in order to fin
ish his university studies. Now. how.
ever. he has finished his training, and
has intimated to his father, as a duti-
full son should. that he would like to
marry. That is all he is required TO
do, at present; II is the business OF
his parents to take the next step.
Orio's father, presumably, has some
quiet talks with his wife on the sub
ject. and then betakes himself to a
professional matchmaker, or go-be-
tween. These marriage brokers are
class apart-discreet men Of the
world, with a good deal Of insight in
to human nature. For the sake OF
his own reputation and future the
go-between tsually does his best to
please all pA'ties.

carefully considering the official and
social position of the persons and fam
lies interested. he suggests that Ger
tain Miss Chrysanthemum woulf
make a most desirable bride for tn,
learned son of the honorable houee
of Tamura."
Once more Orio's father consults his
wife and sundry other relations, and,
having no fault to find with the 20
between's suggestion, instructs the
latter to proceed. The marriage bro
ker's next step is to approach the
parents OF the yourg lady he has In

ment for mutual inspection--it is
known as the Observation-Disclosures meet
ing"-between the prospective bride
and bridegroom at the house of the
brides father, and in the presence OF
that gentleman and the go-between
himself
The meeting usually takes the form
OF conventional tea party, at which
the prospective bride does the honors.
II Is perhaps unnecessary to add that
she does not wear the Oldest Clothes
on this occasion. Here, for the first
