PERPETUAL POLITICS.

The New York World is rather wor- ried for fear the country is to have an overdose of politics. It instances that President Taft urges the republican national committee to maintain it's organization. he also wants political clubs throughout ali the states.
 MT. McCombs, chairman of the dem, ocratic committee. would have mat body establish permanent offices. The rrogresslves expect to keep busy foi the next four years and the socialists never quit.
 But there is no cause for serious alarm at this prospect. It won't keep .ue farmers from cultivating the land; the merchants from opening the stores; labor from earning its wages, nor industry from revolving it's wheels.
 Nothing organized politics can do through it's paid leaders, it's walking delegates and professional agitatorS can induce the bulk of the people to take the politics in continuous doses. A big dose at stated intervals is the most they will stand and they are constantly reducing the size of these.
 They are more and more refusing to get excited during campaigns. Even New York failed to pull of an ante election torchIight procession where the number of shouters equaled the number in the hired bands.
 Politics Is becoming more of an exact science and less of an emotional revival. Each voter figures out where be will come in and cares less fol ,shat will happen to some party 5 walking delegates.
 only men of national prominence can draw a hall full to hear them elu- cidate and the most of their hearers 50 from curiosity to see the mar, while generally they come away dis appointed at tac performance ard msrveling at the cheapness of fame
 The people who vote also read and most of them know before campaign begins how they will vote. The only perpetual politics of the national or Ger will be the performance at Wash iugton aud the audience is gaining a riost desirably critical appreciation oi , both good and had acting.

 He has set a pace likely to be fol. lowed by many millionaires of the future. The fact that man has ac. cumulsted a great fortune may not be a disgrace to him. It depends on how be got his gold.

THE SIMPLE TRUTH

Major Charles Hine, the versatile and able manager Of the Southern Pa cihc properties in Mexico and Of the Ar.zona Eastern railway. makes some very plain talks to the people of Ari- zona regarding the mistakes of their legislators and plainly points out some of the errors of their procedure. But the Arizona politicians responsi- ble for these conditions will be prompt with the assertion that the statements made by the mayor are entitled to no credence or attention TOT the reason that he is a railway manager, and therefore not entitled to voice any protest against the action Of the Ari- zOna lawmakers.

CONCERNING A COMMUNICATION
(Tucson CitiZCn.J

tIuCSon CitlZl.J
 A day of two ago The Citizen re. ceiyed a badly scrawled letter from a resident of one or the local mininS camps. a missiye remarkable m a nuU- illustrate the point about to be made. Der of particulars. Perhaps it should have been saved for reproduction to bat under sudden impulse it was pro jected Into the waste basket as soon as read. By the way, that is a tate which never befalls a fair and sincere letter addressed 10 The Citizen, no matter how greatly at variance may be the views of the writer trom those of this newspaper.
 The writer in this instance began at once launching into a tirade of half incoherent abuse of railroads in gen eral and of the Southern Pacific ia particular, applying tO the latter terms of considerable violence. One gathered from the letter that while railroads as a whole are bad, the Southern Pa cific especially IS a brutal, low-broweG monster, a menace to Arizona. a de. stroyer of prosperity, a waster Of the land which it's steel rails span.
 This brought the writer to the point of calling down shame upon this news, paper by printing a somewhat eXten- sfve account of the first incoming Fl Paso and Southwestern passenger train and the spontaneous reception accorded it by some thousands of Tue. sonans. He apparently regarded this as a downright calamity. another step in the direction of oppression. He seemed to infer that The Citizen strangely enough, felt a posir,ve joy because of the incoming railroad.
 Let the remark be made in passing, he was eminently correct in that iu ference.
 Now 10 the crux of the whole mat. ter. If this man were the only one in the southwest or in the United States to hold such views regarding large enterprises. the matter would be Of small moment. Unfortunately, there seems to be considerable numbers oi him throughout the whole country, men who in a blinded jealousy for -the peoples rights" would tear up, roct and branch. every great business in the country, and then find fault with the government because there was no work 10 be had
 Every thinking person realizes that big business has been guilty in time past of very grave misconduct, and ! that some such enterprises have been guilty of worse than that. But no thinking person believes that there , fore all large industries are had, or that any of them are aught but up- builders and contributors to prosper

The newspaper brtthren through

The newspaper brtthren through out the state are noting and comment ing on the fact that Hou. Thos. F. Weedin. editor and owner of the Flor ence Blade-Tribunc, has put a new dress on his excellent paper. Tom Weedin was candidate for governor of Arizona in the democratic primary which preceded the first state cleo. ton. Ia that campaign he had the support of practically every news aper in the state. Notwithstanding his defeat he retained the friendship and admiration fthose who so willingly supported him. Now they are glad to know that he is able to improve his newspaper and hope that he may retain his old time vigor in boosting for the advancement of Arizona.
 Eugene $. Ives, representing Epes Randolph and the Arizona Eastern railroad, has taken another hitch on the three-cent fare bill which the rail roads of the state are eontesting and denying it's legality. Mir. Ives oh Wednesday applied for and vas granted temporary injunction aga;nst the three-cent fare law in the state superior court in Tucson, Judge Cooper granting the writ and setting a hearing for December i. Thus it nay be assumed that both state and federal courts will be called on for decisions affecting this law.

RICHARD E. SLOAN AND THE JUDosHIP.

An article from Phoenix includes statement to the eGsct that Hon Reese NJ. Ling. of that cityis regarded as the man most likely to secure the federal iudgshiP in this state pro vided ex-Governor Sloan, the recess appointee, fails of confirmation. There are those among the friends of Judge Sloan who still hope for his confirma- ton and it ls known that some of the besvyveigi1ts in the progressive or Full Moose party in this state win use their influence 10 have what are known as the insurrectc republican senators give him their support in the senate.
 The fight made against the confr nation of Judge sloan in Arizona has ueen one instigated by partisan poll ,.cs and carried on by some of the lery men who provided in the Arizona constitution for a non-partisan iudi-c. ary as far as it was possible, by pro yiding fer grouping all candidates for judicial officers to themselves on an official ballot away from the partisan ticket. So far as the public has been informed no charge was made by any. one against Judge Sloan impugning Eis integrity as man or a judge. One of the senators told the Review he based his opinion to confirma- ton on the ground that ne was oo- ject.Onable to the people of Arizona. Another man, rho has been active and persistent in fighting Judge Sloan, freely admits that be knows of no reason for criticIsing his judicial rec ord. but accuses Sloan with respoE' sibility for the defeat Of an employ CTS liability act before the territorIar legislature several years ago.
 Judge Sloan was a member of the Supreme Court of the territory for sixteen years, reluctantly leaving the bench to become governor on the per. gonsl request Of President Taft who found himselw in some embarrass- nent in choosing governor for the territory after he became executive of the nation. During all these six teen years there was no criticism of Judge Sloan. more than might be ex rected Of any judge from clients who lost cases in court. The bar of the state and the people had confidence in him. This paper believes that there is not a man in Arizona better equip ped to hH lbe position of federal judge than Richard E. sloan and tbis paper believes that he has been the vie tn of islander in the fight that has Eeen msdo upon him.
 We have iiitie expectation now tlat he v1l be confirmed and in that osse of course. the position Wii go to a democrat under the appointment

GEN. SHERIDAN'S WILD RIDE
Return Trip From Winchester to Cedar Creek Described by Vet
 eran-SoIdiers Asleep.

Gen. Philip Sheridan's famous ride from Winchester. Pa, to the battle line at Cedar Creek. Va, was not one of twenty miles. as the poet has ii. but of seventeen and fraction miles. according to Charles E. Thomas, 4226 Cottage Grove avenue, who followed the returning general along the valley nike for distance of five miles. Mir. Thomas had enlisted in the Fifth New York cavalry and at the time of the ride was in one of the divisions under General Sheridan's command.
 q was at Newtown,'' he said in tell ing the story, 'in company with commissary sergeant. We had been ordered out on special duty, and we had been separated from the rest of the cavalry. The line of battle was at Cedar Creek. about five miles from Newtown. Winchester v-as farther along the pike in the other direction

a little less than eighteen miles from the line. It was at Winchester that General Sheridan. returning from Washington, learned that in his ab sence there had been an attack by the Confederates and that the battle was going on. It is not true that at Winchester he came upon men re- treating from the battle ground. He met the first of them about eight miles farther on.
 Tt is not true, either, that the greater part of the soldiers had been routed. The Eighth corps had been surprised and fired out of their beds They had had no chance to fight. and had retrested. They had been put out of service. and they got out of the way as fast as they could. Some of them were only half dressed This was one corps. After they had fallen back, the Nineteenth corps had stopped the men and sent them back toward Cedar Creek. and they were doing this when General Sheridan passed along the pike. The Sixth corps held the line unshaken.
 The sergeant and I were grazing our horses in side street of New town when we. heard cheering in the distance toward Winchester. I told the sergeant that I was going to mount and go down to the pike and see what was happening, and just as l got there along came General Sberi dan on his big black horse, Rienzi There was one orderly riding behind him. He had outdistanced everybody else. We fell in behind and followed for five miles and were close behind when General Sheridan reached the line.
 All the way was along the pike believe that General Sheridan says in his memoirs that he left the road before he reached Newtown and rode across country. I believe that in the excitement of the day he must have forgotten the way he really had come If he left the pike he came back to it before he reached Newtown, because he was travelling the road in the cen ter of town when he passed us He did not ride over rail fences. as his. tories say. By that time the rail fenc had all been burned in camp fires. and the only stone wall he had to pass had been preached for the passage of supply wagons. Struggling along the road behind him for miles were the men who had turned back to follow him as they saw him pass or who had been met by the soldiers of the Nineteenth corps.
 T remember the scene as we came mp to the line of hattie. The men were lying on their faces, most of them asleep. As we approached, one soldier rolled over and raised himself on his elbow. He saw the general. and he leaped to his feet and cried out; General Sheridan Is here The men around him awoke and caught up the cry. and the cheering swept along the line, farther and farther away and growing fainter until it died In the distance"
