Any system of government which enables one man to take advantage of another is not a system under which a dem ocratic condition ot life cau thrive. Governor Marshall. The report that a man troubled with insomnia has been cured of it by being bitten by a rattlesnake will not cause a general rush for the cure by sleep hunters. Ihe mission of some people in this world is to stir up strife and the more strife they can stir up. the happier they are A man went to his death at the rate of ninety-two miles per hour recently. That is going some even to the great beyond. The cause of woman's suflrage in Arizona is being cham pioned oy several of the most able speakers in the 6tate, and the prospects are that the measure will receive a big majority at the November election. The disappointed women of Ohio may take courage. A mere man out in Kansas who had been nominated by the dem ocrats for clerk of the courts has withdrawn from the ticket, refusing to run against his republican opponent, who is a wo man. That beats the chivalry even of Sir Walter Raleigh. A cit' or town is just what the people make it. People outside of the city canrot make it grow it is up to the people who reside there to push it tu tne front ' I think all the money in the country should be kept in circulation by a system which invites it, and not .drive it into stocks and salety deposit vaults," said President Taft. We move to amend by substituting the word "sox" instead of the word "stocks' The American money trust got there in the case of China. According to London dispatches China tell into the hands of the money sharks and the money sharks are our own beloved money lenders of Wall Street. China made a brave efiort to secure funds by lair means without bartering her liberties and had about succeeded when the American interests stepped in and demanded that the loan be made in the usual way.

About twenty five families from Mexico have arrived in Tucson an4 will take up their residence on tbe laud of tbe Tucson Farms company in and about Jaynts station, six miles northwest of th's city.

Woodrow Wilson has declared his belief in the honesty and good intentions of President Taft. Mr. Wilson ap:ar ently wishes to be able to sit at perfect ease if it becomes nec essary for him to ride beside ths President through Pennsyl vania avenue on March 4 next. We are doing a lot of talking about the president we will elect, but all over this country we should pay- more attention to the congressmen and senators to be chosen. The presi dential fight is virtually settled. Now the country should elect men who who will work with Woodrow VViUon. "Will they do it in the East?

We do not expect the inventor to have a place in any of the halls of fame, but he will probably beble in a little while to have one of the best touring cars on the market At Princeton, West Virginia, recently a mob lynched the wrong man. Unreasonable impulsiveness is dangerous in West Virgina as it is elsewhere. Talk about the apathy of voters during a primary cam paign, is all a mistake; when the occasion arises. Take South Carolina, for instance. During the recent primary there, out of a possiole vote of 141,809, the vote cast was 142,104, That does not show much apathy or lack of interest. There are now four animals in the politisal zoo: The donkey elephant, bull moose and camel. The suffragists have no animal to represent them. The Tucson Star cruelly suggests: "Why not assign the goat to them? They appear to be butting in alright," Mayor Gaynor of New York announces that he has done away with police violence and clubbings Recent occurrences there seem to bear out the assertion, six shooters are more. effective than ordinary police clubs, and gun" men are no: very expensive. Sixteen hundred years ago the Emperor Diocletian em bodied this paragraph in an edict: "Who is of so hardened a heart and so untouched by a feeling for humanity that he can be unaware; nay, that he has not noticed, that in the sile of wares which are exchanged in the market, or dealt with in the daily business ol the cities, an exorbitant tendency in prices has spread to such an extent that the unbridled desire of plundering- is held in check neither by abundance nor by seasons of plenty!" It would seem Jrora this that the problem of the high cost of living after all is not a new one. A doctor who examined C W; Morse says that his re covery is a miracle. It would be a very much greater mir acle if some ol bis victims were to recover some of their loss es incurred through him.

This is an important case on ac count of the fact that on tbe decision, rests tbe possibility of obtaining patents to many mining claims in tbe Turquoise Mining District and else where, tbe point of controversy hinges as much on ttie question of "mineral in place" as the amount of expendi ture before applyiog for patent.
