The magnitude Of the newspaper
business is not generally understood
by the layman. but he will gain some
idea of it from a statement by the
Progressive Printer" that the Los
Angeles Times has just entered into
a s2,5OO,OOO contract for print paper.
This is said to exceed by far any
print paper contract ever made in
this or any other country.

The Republican Ticket.

The coming city campaign does not
promise much excitement The cleo
ton of the whole republican ticket
seems to be a foregone conclusion.
Mayor Christy. absent at Washing
ton on business for the city, probably
will be inclined to think that his
friends have played mean trick
on him during his absence He did
not wish 10 fill the office of mayor
another term. His banking business
is exacting of his time and attention.
and he did not feel that he ought to
be drafted for another term as mayor.
But ii is the unanimous desire of the
republicans of Phoenix-and of a
large number of democrats, we sus-
pect-that he shall serve the city for
two years more in the office he has
filled with such ability and fidelity.
The office of mayor has few at
fractions for a busy and honest man.
No salary goes with the office, and a
proper discharge of the duties calls
for a large loss of time.
1t is somewhat of a joke on Mayor
Christy that his res ,rd as mayor has
been so satisfactory to the people
that they demand of him another
term 1t is a penalty he must pay
for doing a good job.
The moral, of course. is that if a
mayor of Phoenix does not wish to
succeed himself he must make a rec
ord that is Objectionable to his con-
stituents Mayor Christy is too con-
scientious to make that sort of rec
ord.
The other officers renominated:
Marshal A J. Moore. Recorder Frank
Thomas, and Assessor c. w. Barnett
hold places that are more or less at
tractive-although the salary of nei-
Their job is adequate compensation for
the excellent services which these in
cumbents have performed. So salts
factory have been their services that
there was no idea in any quarter OF
displacing them with new men. Just
who their opponents will be will not
be determined until our democratic
friends settle a little family row of
their own: but in any case it is a
very safe prediction that Moore
Thomas, and Barnett will be trium-
phantly elected, as usual.
For the council, the republicans Of
fer two men who. are new to official
life, but men who are well known by
nearly all the voters of the city
Charles ]. McElroy, the candidate for
the First ward, and Elmer Warren,
the candidate for the Third ward, are
men of far more than average ability,
men of strict integrity, men of fine
public spirit, and they will be valu-
able additions to the city's list of Of
fetal servants. They also must wait
for the result of the democratic
shindy at the primaries before they
can know the identity of their OPP
ponents. but if personal popularity
and fitness for the onerous duties OF
the council count or anything. they
can confidently count on election.

Future Fortune of China

Shanghai, October 31.-A very few lays will reveal the future fortunes of China The burning of the native city of Hankow by the imperialists accompanied, accord ing to report, by brutal treatment Of Chinese by Manchus has created the worst possible impression.
 It is predicted that unless the Manchus immediately demonstrate the sincerity of the imperialist edicts being issued at Pe- king the slaughter will exceed that of the Tai Ping rebellion.
 The district south of the Yang Tse kiang is omnously- quiet. There is every indication that the native city of Shang- hal, besides Ranking, Ching Kiang, Hang Chow and the lower Yang Tse forts will be in the hands of the rebels in week. Whether their conquest will be accom- panied with a massacre of Manchus or quietly as heretofore, depends upon the influence of the leaders. Foreigners at no point have been molested and they will remain unharmed, the rebel chief as- sures the press. unless such actions as those of the imperialists at Hankow con- tinue, and the reports of the dishonor and murder of defenseless Chinese women and children make it impossible to control the rebels
 Further reports that small up river towns and others in the heart of Szechuen FioNlHCc are SOlHS over to Lne reDelS, are received. Panic among the officials at Picking is regarded as one of the worst features of the situation. as 1t betrays cringing on the part of the dynasty be- fore the onrush of the revolution.
 Leaders of the new party look upon the Insurance of the edict as victory far greater than anything that has been won cn the field of battle
 All incoming river boats are crowded with refugees. Most of these are Chi nese, but there are few foreigners Eye witnesses of the fighting at Hankow pay a tribute to the imperialist forces. They say that the revoltuionists were little more than an untrained mob, but courageous and quite ready to continue the fighting The rebels are operating the Huanan mint and making great quantities of dollar coins daily. The new revolutionary paper is being redeemed immediately on presen- tat.on
 Well informed persons believe if the next few days passes without an outbreak there will be strong possibility of the situation being saved through the ap- pointinent of Yuan Shi Kai. as pre- nlier, with younger Manchu as figure head, in order to comply with the proto- col of 1901; the forming of a cabinet com posed entirely of Chinese; the immediate convocatfon of parliament and the aban- ionment of the railroad standardization plan

with the extent of the concessions made bv the throne yesterday. The dissatis- faction has spread among the troops so that in addition to those in the imme- diate neighborhood of Picking who forced the crisis by backing up the demands of the national assembly large bodies or sol- ders in other provinces have given their 5dherence to the 12 demands of the troops at Luan Chow. These troops num- Der no less than 1000 men in Cheng Tung province and 4000 troops in Pao- ting
 According to the state departments ad- vices number of demands on the throne made in the ultimatum of the national assembly have not yet been granted Among them are the following: An im- mediate parliament; that constitutional amendments originate in parliament; that the army though subject to the control of the Emperor, be not used in domestic troubles except under regulations adopt ed by parliament; that parliament elect the premier, he to appoint ministers of state; that the parliament approve the budget and all treaties affecting the gem oral interest of the country; that the qualifications of electors for members of parliament be defined and that the army is to be consulted In regard to these mat ters.
 AUOlneT SOuTCe OI ulIllCully III Ino exc oution of the reform programme has been found in the ominous attitude of the great Manchu princes. They are angry over the depreciation of their control over Manchuria.
 San Francisco, October 31-Reports that many officers In the Chinese revolution ary army received military training in America is pronounced untrue by lead CTS of the Chinese National association here. They say the revolutionary activ- ities outside of China have consisted in spreading revolutionary propaganda and in organizing centers for the collection Of funds to finance the rebellion.
 In proof of the incorrectness of the report they point to the statement that care was taken to exclude Manchus or Tartars from the companies secretly drill ed in the United States. This, they say, shows that the report is not of trust worthy origin as all Chinese in the Amer icas and the South Pacific islands are from the Cantonez province and there are no Manchurans in this country

 present position as too strong TOT yleia- ing to promises which they feel are in- sincere.
 The revolutionists point out that such edicts as these wherein the thrones own appointees and relatives are called thieves and scoundrels, do not tend to encourage confidence. What the edicts state regard ing the methods of the present admins traitor is, of course, admitted by the rev olutionaries, but the thrones plea of ig- norance hitherto is regarded as incredible But while the edits have apparently failed of their hoped for effect in concil- iating the rebels, they have stirred up most formidable opposition for new source The announcement that most of the Manchu office holders must go ana that all the Manchu pensions will be cut off immediately, produced a pronounces disaffection in the ranks of the Manchus, and many members of this race at once began talking in favor of a massacre of revenge There were indications already today that these proposals would find support particularly among the young Manchu princes, who will now be stripped of their high offices. and unable longer to exploit their positions.
 Officials prominent among the native Chinese profess to have information that Prince Tsai Tao. uncle of the baby Emperor, is willing to lead the massacre party.
 Protection Sought
 Throughout the day the foreign Ie- cations. the missions and every pri- vate house occupied by foreigners were hesieged by both Manchus and Chinese. who sought protection from each oth- CT. Prince Ching, the premier. Is urg- ing his influence to restrain that ele- ment of Manchus who may be disposed toward violence. Tor their part the Manchus dread a rebel investment of the capital
 Certain legations are advising both Chinese and Manchus to take refuge in case of trouble behind the Meth odist mission which Is situated in that corner of the main city lying between the legation quarter and the east wall This Is the most easily defended sec. ton of the city and the legation guards may be able to protect those who gath CT there. Long lines of carts piled high with the household belongings Cf the fugitives continue to pass out of the city gates before the early closing hours Many carts emerge from the forbidden city, some guarded by sol diers. Cart loads of silver, sometimes without guard pass day and night in and out of the legation quarter. The money Is brought to the legations from the defenseless Chinese banks for a temporary safe deposit and then re- moved to resplace the paper calculations or to be forwarded to the minister ci war, Gen. Yen Tschang. for the loyal troops who are receiving their pay with unprecedented regularity. Wealthy citizens also are entrusting their for tunes 10 foreigners
 Foreigners are anxious over the sit tuition in Picking but not alarmed. New ertheless. the fullest precautions are being taken. Unarmed pickets form a line about the legation walls and ex- tend to the Chinese quarters. Fears are entertained for the foreigners ir the province of Han Si. many of whom

ADJUSTMENTS
Mutt and Jeff"

Mutt and Jefr. the latest of the "car- toon musical comedies" based on the humorous drawings of Bud Fisher, began last night.
 Although the comedy is somewhat rem iniscent," and could hardly be said to scintillate, the two leading characters present a mrth-provokin appearance and the efforts of the comedians play ing the elongated Mutt and the diminu- tive Jeff were received with marked ap- proval. In fact, all the comedy part of the show evoked much laughter in spite of the fact that the familiar trick stair way was introduced for the ',umpty- umpth'' time on the stage and business of one comedian placing waiter between himself and other comedians fist was featured. Once or twice the funmaking did assume some degree of novelty, but 1t was the tried and true" which drew most of the laughs and the audience was evidently of the opinion that it was get ting It's moneys worth.
 Scenicallyq and sartorialy, Nut and Jeff Is very pleasing. Both the scenery and the costumes are bright and new, rich in color and attractively designed The last act. showing view of a South American port with gorgeous uniforms and Spanish costumes for the chorus girls, Is quite artistic.
 As for the music it is above the aver age in tunefulness, but good voices are sadly lacking. If the song numbers were only sung as well as they are staged there would be little fault to find Sweet Land of Dreams" is one of the most pleasing of the musical selections. "Span- ish Moon" is another good number
 The engagement will be concluded with a matinee this afternoon and perform ance tonight. For the benefit of the chill dren, prices will be reduced at the mati- nee this afternoon to 25 and 50 cents. Messrs. Hoyt and Beach. who play Mutt and Jeff, respectively. look just like the pictares of those celebrated personages
