of the principal European countries than it Is among the corresponding bodies in the United States.
 And yet the opening day for the canal is only about twelve months away, according to the estimate of Colonel Goethels. the man who is in charge Of the construction work. He figures that the canal will be ready Ter use by October of next year. That date arouses more interest apparently among European and Asiatic shippers than it does among those of the coun- try which is building the canal. There must be something wrong about these stories which We see in European newspapers and hear from European visitors about the Yankees keeress in trade" If there he any such qual- ity in the Panama case 1t is not vis- be to the naked eye in this side of the Atlantic.

AN AssuRp cIIARcE.

Tue utter absurdity Of the repUb leans claim this morning that the democratic party council, yesterday in promu!gahng a platform refused 10 endorse the state adIUinistratiou is shown by glance at that Gocu ment, which is pub;iahcd in full in yesterdays DemocraC.
 TAe platform endorses egCrv state official from governor down. and this endorsement was given freely and without wrangling, as the Republican infimates
 The only difference between Uhe adODtiCn of the democratic platform md the republican system or opera. tion is that instead of having a plat. form prepared in advance, as the re- uublicans did. and running it through by steam roller methods, the demo crats went into the conference yes terday without anything having been prepared in advance. There was full and free discussion of every subject 70 he touched upon in the platform, and naturally there was some differ, ence of opinion as to the wording Of the varioCs blanks. However, there was no i'll feeling cngendered, and whenever a plank was adopted it was done by the unanimous vote og all present

THE MONEY TRUST
 AND COOPERATION"

After declaring that industrial trusts feed the money trust" Golfers for Sept. 2S, in a brilliant editorial, says:
 NO other economic problem in America is so important as the con trol which few hnanciers exercise over capital. The control of capital is to business what the control of the water supply is to life. The greatest economic menace today is tho control over our quick capital by which all big business is subject 10 the will of a few men. Nothing has contributed so much to the growth of that financial power of the few as the advent of the industrial trust By converting a large part of the capital of the country into negotiable bonds and stocks which are listed on the New York and other Stock Exchanges, a few men are ac- quiring 8 strength which is almost world-compeIling. The change came with the creation of the industrial trusts and the great consol- idation of railroads. Today no really large enterprise can be undertaken without the consent of a few mea whose offices are in or near Wall Street, and the price of the consent is usually such as to further enhance the power of our money kings. This great danger. which new party leaders generally ignore. Governor wilson ap- preciates. Long ago he said:
 The great monopoly in this coun- try is the money monopoly. So long as that exists, our old variety and freedom and individual energy Of de velopment are out of the question. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of ciedits. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth Of the action, therefore. and all our activities. are in the hands of a few men, who. even if their action be hon est and intended for the public inter est. are necessarily concentrated upon the great undertakings in which their oWH money is involved. and who nee essarily, by reason of their own Iimi

included in the states industrial de partment. We do not believe the peo-
 ple of Arizona desires anything of the kind.
 We all remember the days long gone and nearly forgotten when the farm. CTS organization, known as the Changers. swept over the country and was regarded by many as the saliva ton of all who followed the blow or worked in the hayheld; the farmers were to be relieved of ever paying any profit again to anyone but thsm- selves. Cooperative stores, co-opera- tive mills and other cooperative en. terprises were undertaken in many parts of the country. The manage ment of these enterprises were di rected and controlled by the entire neighborhood" from which the orlgi- nal capital was drawn. Such enter. prises were short-lived and in many eases instead Of the farmers receiy- ing any benefits the size of the farm mortgage was increased as a result of the investment in these home owned industrial enterprises. Still the management of the old-time Granger cooperative enterprises was better than might be reasonably expected from a state-owned industrial enter. prise with a political machine at the helm.
 Arizona's constitution already pro vides for municipalities owning the rublic utilities upon which the public must depenI for service, such as water systems. street railways and lighting plants and further than this we should say it will be dangerous to go in this direction.

PREPARING FOR PANAMA.

Is the United States going to hand over to England, France. Japan, Ger many and the rest of it's maritime rivals the great trade advantages which will come to the world from the opening Of the shortcut between the two big oceans ny way of Pan amas. asks the Globe Democrat, and continuing that paper says:
 'The present prospect is that the country which is building the canal, and which is paying out something like s4OO,00o,OOO of good money there. by, will be the smallest gainer by it among the leading commercial coun. tries. We hear something about pro. tests from some of the European na. tons because we may let our coast ing vessels go through tkat waterway without payment of the tolls which are to be exacted from all other craft, American and foreign, but it is no ticed that practically all of the prep aration which is beng made for the utilization of the canal. when 1t comes, Is being made in Europe and in Japan.
 Most of the shipyards of England, France. Germany, Holland. Japan and the rest of the commercial countries Of the old World are busy with con. struction work melted by the ap preaching opening of the canal, while scarcely 2 trace of anything of the sort is noticed in the United States Report from time to time has said that linesof steamboats are to bs started between our Atlantic ports and the Pacific, by way of the canal, but most of these. when run down. prove 10 be apocryphal They represent what ought to be. and not what is some expansion in our shipping Is csr tain to result from the openiir> 'oi the canal but t is likely to be small

 A society for the elimination ns gossip is being formed in Dayton o., it is said.
 Wouldn't it have been better to define the kind of gossip that should be eliminated and insert the adiect- i've malicious" 2"
 It's only malicious gossip that works harm. Mere gossip seldom is harm ful It is rather pleasureable, and il spreads news of interesting neighbor- hood happenings that otherwise wouldn't go abroad. It gives one sub iects to think about and to discuss A good gossip, of a kindly turn, makes everybody feel good, and none of us want that sort of thing eliminated.
 But unfortunately, the malicious el- ement is nearly always introduced by some mischiefmakeT who can never place a kindly construction upon anything. and who would rather stir up sensation than eat good meal. Every neighhorhOod is afflicted by a prying individual Of this class She Is continually pointing the finger of suspicion, and no matter what takes place, or what doesn't take place, or what she inagines should CT did hap pen. her tongue wags with insinua. tions until all who heara re impreg hated with the idea that something is wrong.

 The evidence is said also to prove that no American money has financed the OrozcO rebellion. and to tend 70 establish the claim that the Madero revolution was financed from this country.
 What if both these assertions are true? Is the United States, therefore. 10 intervene In Mexico? Intervention may be or become necessary. but better reason than these must be put forward to justify it to the world. The United states cannot favor all leaders of rebelliOns and ought not to favor any.
 A much more important argument is contained in the assertion, said to have been made by an eX-senator iu Washington. that "ghastly atrocities against Americans are a matter Cf

AW0MANyO OBSERVATIONS


Small towns are specially afflicted with the malicious gossiper. Juss the other days l had letter from : young woman who lives in such s place, asking how she might over come a tale that had been spread concerning her.
 T was suddenly called out Of town" she wrote. Instead of taking the train, which would have made me walt a couple of hours, I hired an auto from the garage to take me to the place was to go. The driver was a young married man of our town. He returned for me that night and drove me back home. The rumor was started that 1 was out Ioy-riding with him, and now everybody looks at me as if I had committed crime. think it is dreadful"
 It is from just such innocent be- ginnings that false tales are manu- factured and many a persons good name blackened.
 It's claimed that people are better. on the average, in small towns, be- cause they are so closely watched, while in the city, feeling themselves freed from espionage, they let them selves loose.
 There is possibly something to this but isn't it a fact that more reputa- tions are ruined without good cause, in the small town than in the city. simply because certain sensation-hun- gry women work on their energy to some extent snooping around the big downtown stores or going to matinees or picture shows; but in the monoto- nous small town environment the clatter of their tongues must fill idle hours.
 One doesn't entirely escape in the city, even, for certain sections ot every city are composed of small town ntighborhoods, each a little gos- sip center by itself. Often a single apartment house is a hotbed of gos- sip, and more than one puzzled land lord has suddenly found himself with an empty building on his hands sim ply because things got too warm for everybody and the tenants moved out to get away from each other.

A letter in the Phoenix Gazette complains that the results Of the re- cent primary election in this state are no better than might have been expected from the old-time conven- ton plan, the writer expressing dis gust at the failure of the democrat ic committee in going the whole hog" in it's endorsement of the pres ent state administration. We are inclined to agree with this disap- pointed gentleman, so far as the pri- mary being an improved method of securing a full expression Of voters is concerned. The old conventions fell into disrepute because the masses allowed a few politicians to TUT them and at the recent primary less than ten per cent os the total vote was boiled. Unless the people will participate in the primary elections they will be controlled by the poll tician just as were the old conven. tions.

INDUSTRIAL PURSUITS BY THE STATE.

One of the proposed amendments to the state constitution and which was ordered submitted to the voters at the coming election by the legislature is the one offered by Senator Worsiey, Of Pima County. granting to the state and the municipalities of the state the right to engage in any industrial psr- suit. This measure is about all tha; the most rabid socialist could desire as a complete enforcement of the in sistence of his party that it would re better to have the government owR all the industries and all the producing machinery in :he country, so that all the profits coming from the re- sources of the land and from labor could be divided among the people. A fine theory, indeed, but would it work?
 It must be kept in mind that be fore the state or any municipality could engage in any industrial pursuit the people would necessarily have to be taxed for the required capital and after the capital was thus taken from the people and they forced into such state business enterprises as might be thought advisable by the state of. fcials or industrial board that might be provided, they would be compelled to rely on political machine for bus. mess management. It viii be claimed that present day reforms will com. pleteIy do away with political favorit- ism. but that is only dream All would welcome the complete abolition of political favoritism in government, but the fact remains that wherever there is government. big or little this favoritism may be discovered if looked for.
 So. with every change in the state or municipal administration, which in this state is provided for every two years. there would be a change in the business management in the industrial enterprises. the state saw Iaills, shoe factories and the mines owned by the state.
 Does anyone believe the prospects would be f1attering for profits in such state-owned industrial enterprises. or that the taxpayers who would be the stockholders would have an even chance when thus brought into compe- tition with the shrewd business men always found in successful enterprises owned and directed by private capital? The Review does not regardless of the opinion of others.
