Saturday, July 19, 1902.
Tho surplus in tho United States
treasury for the year just closed is $92,
190,000, and yet some people have the
lernerltv to talk of a deficit.
Kansas, Missouri, Pennsylvania and
Minnesota have all warmly indorsed
President Roosevelt to succeed himself
in 1904, and Senator Piatt Is authority
for tho statement that New York will
do likewise.
Despite the billious wail of octopus
haunted fiction writers, tho world is a
better place to work, sleep, eat and
think in than at any previous epoch.
We have a promise that it will be
better to-morrow than it is so-day.
The statistics of tho treasury depart
ment for tho fiscal year just closed
prove that the estimate furnished by
Hon. Lyman J. Gage, then secretary
of the treasury, last November, have
been borne out with remarkable accuracy.
The Arrow of last week contained a
good description ot. Chloride; also a
half-tone cut of the town. Since mov
ing to Chloride the Arrow has a more
prosperous look, and it is doing much
to make the resources of that section
known.
Before leaving Washington for his
vacation the president directed the
civil service commission to issue an
order to the effect that no promotions
of employes of the government shall
be made except upon the recommenda
tion of their immediate xuperior.
Gov. Brodle has uppolnted I. M.
Christy territorial treasurer. The
bond of the treasurer is $40,000, and the
Pacific Surety Company will furnish
the bond. It has been presumed for
some time that Mr. Christy would be
the choice of Gov. Brodie for this Im
portant position.
Among other reforms which Secre
tary Moody has introduced in the navy
department U an order discontinuing
tho supply of dally paper at govern
ment expense. Hereafter employes ot
that department must supply their own
papers and must refrain from reudlng
them during office hours.
Before congress adjourned Postmas
ter General Payne submitted to that
body the draft of a bill providing for
postal currency, for which Mr. Payne
believes that a necessity exists. It Is
hoped that congress will not fail to
provide such a medium of exchange
during the short session.
In view ot the continual reports of a
scarcity of farm labor in the western
stales, It would seem that a most prac
tical philanthropy might consist of
some means whereby the laborers In
the conjested centers of tho east might
be transported to the localities where
their services are in demand.
The Arizona number of the Pacific
Coast Miner is a splendid edition of
that enterprising mining journal. Min
ing Is the chief industry of Arizona and
it is the most promising mineral field
in the world, and the attention of
thousands of readers will be called to
the mining regions of Arizona through
the special number of the Miner.
Tho president has appointed Major
Mlcali Jenkins, formerly ot the Hough
Riders, internal revenue collector for
the district of South Carolina. This is
the same Major Jenkins to whom Mr
Roosevelt presented a sword when he
was In Charleston. Senator Tillman's
nephew, It will be remembered, bump
tiously advised tho president to stay
away.
F. II. Newell of the geological survey
estimates that In tho next hundred
years there cannot possibly bo irrigated
moro than 00,000,000 acres of arid land,
notwithstanding the claim In congress
that something like 200,000,000 acres
of arid land could be reclaimed. It will
doubtless be two or three years before
the actual work of construction will be
begun In any locality.
The Democratic territorial conven
tion has been called to mnot In Tucson
on Wednesday, Soptember 3. Tho con
vention will have one hundred and seventy-two
delegates, and nine delegates
is tho representation to which Coconino
county is entitled. The committee
recommend tho adoption of the primary
election method for the selection of
candidates for the respective county
offices.
There are a score of men in America
whose fortunes exceed those of mon
arch of one hundred years ago. But
Instead of using their va6l wealth in
selfish pleasure and extravagant pa
geantry many of them are using it for
the promotion of industries through
which thousands live with comforts un
known to kings of the past century,
while a few, of whom Mr. Curneglo ie
most conspicuous, are lavishing mill
ions for tho public benefit.
A school for commercial students has
been established In New York. The
building will cost $300,OJO. Only ma
ture students will be accepted. It is
proposed to teach modern languages,
especially French, Gerraau and Span
ish. The object, In short, Is to enable
tho American drummer pushing Amer
ican commercial enterprises in foreign
countries to compete with his polyglot
confrere from Germany, France, Eng
land or Spain. Hitherto tho American
drummer In foreign parts has been
compelled to introduce his goods by
pantomime.
The Gila county Democrats have
adopted the Crawford primary election
plan for the selection of county officers,
and the Silver Belt comments on it as
follows:
"Every Democrat who has tho wel
fare of the county and of the party at
heart will applaud tho action of tho
county central committee in adopting
the Crawford primary plan fur the
selection of candidates for county of
fices. It Is only those aspirants who
are uncertain of their strength with the
party voters who oppose the primary
plan, and who would rather trust to
the manipulation ot a convention to
effect nominations. At the Demo
cratic primaries to be hold In the sev
eral precincts of this county on August
23 the name ot every declared aspirant
for office will appear on the ticket and
the choice of candidates for the re
spective offices will He entlroly with
voters ot the party, and if they fall to
exercise tho privilege or to choose
wisely there will be no one to blame."

Hodja, the famous Turkish jester, once went to a feast clad in a
very old and ragged tunic. He received very little attention and no
place was made for him at the table.
He at once hurried home, put on his best and most gaily em
broidered tunic and appeared again.
He was given a seat of honor at the tabic.
As soon as the first dish was served he took a large spoon and
began ladling the food in his sleeve.
"What are you doing? " ask the guests.
" I am feeding the tunic," he said. "You have no welcome here
for me but only for my clothes."
This may not be right, but it is human nature.
People judge you by your printing. If it is carelessly done, taste
less or commonplace, they think your business methods are likewise.
The safest and best way is to dress your printing in its very best
tunic, and this will attract the attention of the public to you and
your merits. ' '
Good printing has sound logical reasons in its favor, and good
printing can be had here at the cost of the poorer.
