The Reason.

Success magazine has failed. lis publisher says the failure is due to general business depression But it seems rather strange that other pub lications. which cater To the same class of readers as did Success. are going ahead and enjoying q most gratifying measure of prosperity.
 The truth about the failure of Sue cess is that the people had grown tired of the sort of stuff it was in the habit of publishing. It was the muckrakcr par excellence of the whole undertaking tribe. No man who had made d success in business was safe from its attacks. With it riches were a reproach and every corporation, good and bad. was a pub lie enemy IL catered to passion and prejudice. and the publishers weren't wise enough to see the handwriting on the wall-they didn't know that tomlawsonism has about run it's course.
 The undertaken. whether of the newspaper. magazine or public char acter variety, is getting to be pitt ful figure The public is getting tired of this everlasting vituperation. If anybody has any facts to give they will be read. but arraignmcnts of big business" and attacks upon the cor porations" without specification either of crime or individual. are be- ginning to pail. It used to be enough to declare that the steel trust had stolen 50 many millions. that the shoe trust had stolen so many millions, and that some other trust had stolen so many millions: but it is not any more Malefactors of great wealth are classed with other malefactors, the public doesn't care so much about predatory riches as it once did. and the slaughter of popular rights and the iron heel of the interests don't create the shivers they once did. The undertaking game is about played out
 It gives one a sense of sincere pleasure to note that q Saner era is dawning. There is a little more jus tice than there was a few years ago. There is something of disposition to treat business men as human be- ings instead of monsters of pillase The day is almost past when either a magazine or q newspaper can sue ceed by fulminations of malice and hatred.

Clean Up.

How soon will We learn that broken adobe walls. unsightly ditches and vacant lots. weed grown sections. cor rals that look like the wrecks of a century agone, and backyards filtered with a conglomerate mass of refuse that seem to implore the presence of the health officer, are not the best things for q city like Phoenix. It is insisted that everybody must boost for the town: but man must do vio- lcnce to his conscience to boost for the rubbish covered wastes that dis figure many sections of Phoenix. Cactus and grease wood do not arouse enthusiasm.
 The Republican has already said, and it repeats the statement. that Phoenix is one of the best towns of its size in the whole west The trou- ble is. it doesn't look it.
 There are now vast improvements in progress which will add to the value of Phoenix property by thou sands of dollars. They will increase the comforts and convenienccs or the people. They will add to the sub- stantiaI assets of the place; but from the standpoint of the visitor there must be something else. The place should appeal to the eye as well as to the intellect

We are offering list of ten prizes tp be awarded to the winners and will give the losers 10 per cent or the cash which they turn in on sub Scriptions. and all we are asking you to do in return is to cut out votes from and secure subscriptions to The Arizona Republican.
