SUPERVISORS IGNORE
 PRECINCT OFFICERS
Issue Election Call for All State and County 0ffiCerS-Ad-
 vice Wanted

TOMBSTONE, Sept 27.-(SpeciaD At the meeting of the board of su- pervisors held here this evening an election call was issued which does not specify precinct officers, merely stating for state and county officers.
 When the question of precinct off cers being embodied in the call was brought up it was considered best to take legal advice on the subject since the governor and secretary Of state appeared to differ in their in- depreciation of the law. IL was then decided merely to call an cleo ton for representative in congress and all state and county officers and to delay action on precinct officers until next Monday when the regular meeting of the board will be held. Meantime legal advice on the sub feet will have been obtained and ac. ton along the line G such advice, should it be that precinct officers should be included, may then be taken.
 This was the only business of im- portance before the board.

FREIGHT RATES
 AND THE CONSUMER

The ultimate consumer in the United States suffers no injury from an increase of freight rates. accord ing to F. P. Ripley, president of the Santa Fe railroad. Freight rates are not nearly so important to the wei fare of the average citizen as the average citizen believes. and the aver, age citizen would not know it if the freight rates were increased from fif- teen to twenty-five per cent tomor- row. unless it was published in the newspapers.
 By way of Illustrating the truth Of these statements and also showine the utter absurdity of the continual cry of retailers that higher prices are the direct result of freight rates, Mir. Ripley cites that a pair of shoes, cost ing three dollars and a half in Chi, cago cost four dollars here-an in crease of fifty cents. Why? The re- taller shouts high freight rates" Yet 1t is a positive fact, according to the chef executive of the Santa Fe that the freight rate on that pair of shoes from Chicago to Los Angeles or San Francisco was about two EEAiE-dbouL a DO1AdEO EAhAAARs AR retailer charges fifty cents more for the shoes because he had to pay the same price to get them here as he did to send an order for them.
 Freight rates" is, seemingly, mere ly the easiest reply to customers who complain about excessive prices. The customer doesn't know the truth and the railroads have no opportunity to tell him.
 Another instance is cited. A glass of beer or a five cent cigar in Den yer takes to itself an additional value of ten cents in Lea6ville. Colo. The absurdity of charging the added ten cents to freight rates is apparent at a glance. A man could make money. if this were the case. carrying ci- gars between the points mentioned. on foot.
 Just what freight rates amount to has been shown recently In bulletins distributed among their employees by several western roads. In these pamphlets, the exact cost of trans porting a ton of freight is given in terms of tools and supplies used by the employees.
 For instance, a broom. A car sweeper steps on the handle of his broom, damaging it So it is of no further use. He goes to the store keeper and secures another and thinks little or nothing of the scci- dent. Yet, in order to offset this waste, the company employing him must transport a ton of freight-a good many hairs of shoes or cigars --thirty-lye miles. The retailer

5 Hon. Green Sea Turtle is in the city from Guaymas. Mex. He arrived yes, terday morning by express consigned 10 J. E. Morrison. United States at torney, as a present from his friend Ajax Marks. formerly of Bisbee but now a resident of Gusymas.
 The arrival of the young sea mon, ster in our midst" has revived the old question. "Is a turtle a fish or an animal?' but this is not worrying the United States attorney nearly as much as the question. What shall I do with him, she or it?"
 The turtle weighs something like 150 pounds and one of Mir. Morrison's friends has suggested that he give q turtle soup party and invite the whole Territory and that the remainder be prorated among the people of Texas. M. J. Cunningham suggested that the animal or fish be put fin the park but this is overruled by the possibility that the turtle might swallow the park
 The turtle was at Mosher's mar ket on Main street and in his com fortable corpulence somewhat resem- bles one of the democratic candidates for governor of Arizona, saving his grace. There is some talk of aIrang- ing a thousand-yard dash between the turtle and a Don Luis Jack rabbit, bu. some remembering the traditional heat in which the rabbit was doped and was overcome by sleep, fear the race would not be on the level. { AS a matter of fact. however, none of these things will be done to the turtle.

CIVIL SERVICE AND
 DIPLOMATICS
Ccontinued from page i)

by Great Britain, affords a fair ex- ample of the departure from the
 civil service system to accomplish certain results. as that country ap- plies the civil service to it's consular force and in part to it's diplomatic branch. Practically all of the ambas- sadors from the United States have been chosen from outside the ser vice. by the president, in whom that power is vested. but 1t is noticeable that in the latest great change in that service growing out of the resig- nation of Ambassador Hill at Der lin, not only his successor, but a
 long line of promotions following. were made by the president among men who had long been in the diplo- matic service.
 Geographical Allotment.
 The rule which provides that ap- pointment to the service shall be ap- portioned as nearly as possible to population should be inquired into by prospective candidates before go- ing to the trouble and expense of fitting themselves for the positions. Each state is allotted, by this system, certain number of diplomaic and consular places, which. provided vacancy exists, can be filled by one of it's citizens.
 While this regulation is strictly ad- hered to by the gate department, occasionally a vacancy occurs which has to be filled by a candidate from a state whose quota is already ex- hausted because no candidate has ap- peared or passed the examination from a state entitled to an appoint ment. It sometimes occurs that from the state whose quota is full may successfully pass the examination, but be denied ad- mission because of that fact, there being no vacancy to which he is en- titled. Candidates who are very de- sirable sometimes fail on this ac- count.
 Politics Cut Little Figure.
 Frequently, the complaint is made, not only to the department, but else where, that politics play a conspicu- ous part in the selection of diploma tic and consular officers. It Is only on the rarest occasions that this is true nnes anu tue uepdE luCuS lS gen earlly blameless for the exceptions. The constitution confers upon the senate the right to give advice and consent" to the president upon ap- pointments to both services, and it Is here that politics enters into the selection and members of congress are responsible for 1t. To avoid this difficulty, as far as possible, all can didates wishing the appointment to either branch, are required by the state department to secure the eng dorsement of enc or both of the sen. ators from their state as a prelimin- ary to designation. The department also requires that each candidate shall furnish references as to char acter, these being not necessarily from politicians.
 The state department is encounter ing less and less interference each years in the matter of appointment to the diplomatic and consular ser vices, from politicians. The beginning Of the present system met with great opposition from congress. but al the present time. this opposition has been reduced to minimum, and the merits of the system are becoming manifest in the increased efficiency of the services rendered.

 Smoked and Waited.
 Across the town, at the old Kos terlitzky barracks, the newly arrived soldiers from Cananea smoked in- numerabie cigarettes and waited for the situation to spew itself away Crowds of the curious thronged about the platform of the adobe houses. The door was guarded by a six.foot Mexican with a carbine, dressed in overall trousers and a khaki coat. On the other side of the doorway stood fve-foot Mexican, armed with two belts of cartridges. Inside the build ing the thirty and five soldiers sat or squatted along the rear wall smok- ing cigarettes, silent and moody, their arms stacked. A wiry, black moustaehed officer in a white cot ton shirt and overall trousers gave an order in strident accents that, from the spirit of 1t, might have been some thing like "cut away the mast" but which translated meant. clear the doorway
 The Peaceful End.
 What is the next move?" was the question asked of the camp leaders. but the only answer was "Quien sabe?' accompanied by a shifting of the shoulders. Apparently the song Every little Movement has a Mean ing of its Own. has no meaning in Mexico. Under ordinary conditions the situation at Naco yesterday would have resulted in bloOdshed nine times out of ten in any country 9th CT than Mexico. The garrison had mutinied and was in control of the town. The railroad entry into the city was guarded. A train bearing inimical troops was rushing in to reclaim the city from the mutineers. There was every indication of trouble in the abstract, but when the forces of war began to arrange themselves in businesslike manner, the inspira- tion yamoosed.
 Unless the truce declared yesterday afternoon results in a compromise, the possibilities of trouble still exist fin Naco. The mutineers still have  their arms, and as their number is about equal to that of the squad from Cananea, they would perhaps be able to hold their own against -the Can anea troops in a fight. American officers at Naco, however. do not be- lieve the possibility Of revolution will get out of the cocoon state.
 When the news of a possible fight arrived in Bisbee, several auto loads of sighth-seers went down 10 the bor- der city, and a number were there from Douglas
 While the immediate cause of the mutiny was the attempted enforce ment of discipline on the part of the it is said that the trouble is grounded in a deeper cause, namely, a dislike by the troops Of the GayOu regime, which was in- stalled at the port several weeks ago. One of this regime is a son of the 1 vice governor, who holds a position In the customs offices there. who, it is said. is greatly disliked by the sol 1 iiers.
