In the course of the statehood contro versy there has been a wealth of com parisons between the material re sources and general material conditions in Arizona, and New Mexico. These 'comparisons have been generally in definite. The Republican, as soon aa the matter came properly before the people or as soon as It was evident that it wuuM be placed before the people began the arraying of figures taken from official and indisputable sources. It recently presented the respective debts of the two territories and later the tax rates of Arizona and New Mex ico. There is no escaping the?e figures. They are available for all who honestly want to set forth the exact financial conditions in the two territories. This morning The Republican prints in another column official figures showing the deposits in territorial and national banks in Arizona and New Mexico. There is no getting away from these figures. It is shown that on June 30 of this year Arizona deposits amounted to almost $14,000,000 while those of New Mexico at the same time were almost $12,000,000. New Mexico claims a population of 375,000. That claim is made by the Joint statists of both territories. Enthusiastic Arlzon ians believe that this territory has a population of ISO.000. Admitting both claims to be approximately true the per capita of deposits in Arizona is considerably more than twice as great as the per capita of New Mexico. It cannot be said that this is a tem porary condition of this year for the same figures show that Arizona now has a longer lead over New Mexico than it had a year ago. Its percentage of increase in deposits for the year was 33.6 while that of New Mexico was 25.8. This is no new thing. The lead of Arizona over New Mexico was taken some years ago and is being lengthened year by year. In 1900 the deposits of New Mexico were $6,816,000 while those of Arizona were $1,357,000. Taking into account the increase each of the territories has made in six years it must appear to even the hlindest jointist that joint statehood would be a drag on Arizona's financial progress. THEY'D HAVE RIGHT AND MIGHT. We have already expressed the be'ief that the joint statehood bill reason ably construed provides for the merg ing of all debts, county and territorial, into one state debt. We have also pointed out that if the bill should not be found to be susceptible of such a construction there is nothing in the measure which would prevent the con stitutional convention with its sixty six New Mexican delegates and its forty-four Arizona delegates from pro viding for such an arrangement. If it were not then done the matter couid be taken up in the rirst legislature, it is certain that it would be done very e;irly in the life of the new state ami no valid argument could be put forward against it. There has been funded of the Arizona county debts more than 52,000,000. Of the New Mexican county debt of more than $3,000,000 no part has been funded. In the event of Jointure the New Mexicans could urge with reason that their county Indebtedness should be given as favorable a position as those of the Arizona counties. They wou'd moreover be in a posi tion to enforce their notion of justice against the unreasonable protests of Arizoniaus who had been foolish enough to enter into this kind of a partnership. RUSSIAN REFORMATION. There is no immediate danger of the destruction of the Russian autocracy, bad as It is. It can be menaced by no serious danger of overthrow until It Is confronted by a different kind of ene mies. There is. it is true, a strong ele ment in Russia demanding a represen tative government, in fact as well asMn name, but this element is weak in com parison with the government's other enemies, the anarchistic and the nihil istic elements. It can never combine with them up to the point of the over throw of the p'rr&cr.t regime. No considerable part of the Russian prople'can ever be made to believe that any government can be so bad that an absence of any form of government , would be better. Before Russia can be reformed, nihil-I isin and anarchy must be wiped out or j reduced to the irreducible minimum and such reformers as Gorky must be reformed or removed. When all this has been accomplished, then there will be hope of a modernized Russian gov ernment. A movement is now under way for the application of mathematics to fra ternal insurance. It has become ev dent that the old and present system is at variance with business methods and practicability. Zenos M. Host, com missioner of insurance for Wisconsin, in an address before a legislative com mittee engaged in the Investigation of beneficiary societies, pointed out the fol'y of neglecting mortality tables and the futility of the argument, "our re serve fund is in the pockets of our members." The failure of the Milwaukee Avenue State Ilank proves again that the sta bility of a financial Institution is some what increased by a distribution of in terest and responsibility. A "family bank" like the old Rothschild banks is safe enough but there are few Roths child families. All peaceably disposed persons will naturally hope that the Anglo-American and the Wellman expeditions wi 1 not arrive at the pole so nearly at the same time as to involve the discovery in dispute. , While Mr. Bryan was wHtching with interest last Sunday the restoration of the Campanile at Venice, he was doubt- I less thinking of the reconstruction of i a certain political edifice in America. VEGETABLE MARKET PRACTICALLY bARE Prevailing Prices of Such Products as are Obtainable. The market stands In Phoenix lt not at this season of the year present an attractive appearance. There is irac t'.cally nothing in the way af green vegetables, and what little there is of fruit is imported from California in small quantities. It will be about six j weeks before carload shipments are at- tempted on account of the extreme I heat. What fruit is to be had is of I splendid quality and the prices are in j the main, in keeping. The reports : from the Verde country are to the ef fect that the crop this year will be J big. So far only the early peaches are in and the few so far brought into i the market have been consumed at Je- j rune. ! The Walter Hill company yesterday quoted the following prices: Bananas, 6 cents a pound. The bunches average from 40 to 00 pounds and are received in but small shipments. Kor lemons there is a go.nl demand. According to (itialitv the nrir runire frnm tl f.n tn ' Sb.oo. Valencia oranges are $5.25 a case.

Locally there were very few marketed, the entire crop f the valley being about equal to two cars and these were! all sold for home consumption. On the market there are a number of varieties j of plums. They include the Tragedy, ! Damascus German and Wixin. The j last named is a white plum of fine flavor and other varieties have blue jackets. They are sold at $1.50 for j 25 pound crates. Melons are still plcn- i tlful for local- consumption although ' the shipments are being gradually de- j creased. Watermelons are sold at $3 j for 200 pound crates and canteloupes , at $1.50 for 60 pound crates. 1 Chili, cabbage and sweet potatoes were the only vegetables received in j last week's imports. The sweet pota- toes are 2 cents a pound. Cabbage, I which is very scarce is 3 cents, and j the green California chili of which the market here consumes a great deal, is ! taken at 12'i cents.
