21, 1905. Why Should the Legislature be Afraid Although a large majority of the members of each house of the legislature are heirtlly In favor of limiting the privilege of voting' in thl3 territory to citizens who, can road, there seems to be a controlling fear which holds the legislature back from enacting the necessary law. But why should they be afraid? And "why should they be restrained from doing their manifest duty by a fear of what may happen to their political fortunes? Xo law is more clearly needed than an educational qualification for voters. That fact should be sufficient to overshadow all personal Interest. We ars referring, of course, to the ignorant Mexican vote.

"We speak in plain English. And discussing the question from the plane of the political interests of the legislators, what have they to fear from the Mexican vote in any event? It is a notorious fact that the Mexicans of the ignorant and migratory class the class which should be denied the franchise do not vote unless they are paid for their votes. Xo matter what any mem ber does in this legislature, he cannot coun on Mexican support hereafter 1. rrv.A vnless he pays for it. The Mexican plays no favorites.

All Americans look 1 alike to him on election day, and he 1 1 kim 1. 1 .10 x. 01Uv, may mm most and rays him last. Some of them receive no money, but their cor rupt leaders get money intended for them. Taking it as a whole, the Mexican vote Is controlled solely by money.

'Any member of the legislature might devote his entire time to denouncing this evil, and he could command the support of this element in the next campaign just the same, to the extent that he could outbid his political opponent. And legislators with political ambitions should realize that It would be much better for them to vote for the right and depend upon the unpurchasable vote to protect them. By advocating this needed legislation, no member need fear that he will offend citizens of Spanish descent whose good will is worth having. Xo Anglo-Saxon is offended when legislation is directed against corrupt members of his race. There is all the difference imaginable between such prominent Arizonlans as Alfred Ruiz, Xabor Pacheco, Ramon Soto, and many other good men of the Spanish race, and the low class of mongrels and peons commonly called Mexicans.

Race distinctions will never be raised in Arizona against such men as we have named. They are a credit to their Spanish blood and a credit to the territory. But there is a large Mexican element of the low class which properly has no place in our citizenship. It is an outrage that this element should be able to offset, vote for vote, the citizens who are building up the territory and paying the taxes. We provide a free public school system, at vast expense, and we have a law which 13 supposed to be compulsory in requiring all children to be sent to school.

But this element refuses to take advantage of our fine system of education. There are hundreds of voters whose grandfathers were made citizens by virtue of the treaty of Guadaloupe, Hidalgo and the Gadsden purchase, and they are not Americans any more than their grandparents were. They are as ignorant of the English language as their grandfathers were. Is it not Intolerable that the third generation should be as thoroughly un-American as the first? What sense or justice is there in giving the ballot to men who have not enough interest in our country and its institutions to learn our language? One of the strongest arguments against our admission into the union is the large part played by low Mexicans in our citizenship. New Mexico would have been admitted twenty years ago if it had not been for the permanently un-American character of her population.

Arizona would be elevated immensely in eastern estimation if we would declare our purpose to make this an exclusively American commonwealth. And there is nothing Inherently unjust in an educational qualification. The suffrage is a privilege and not a right. Mexicans should be made to understand that they are welcome to un i o7 rTWrTLA share in the. general privilege of the ballot as soon as they show enough interest in our territory to loam our language.

It is to be hoped that S01112 member of the legislature will insist upon a record vote on this proposition, li would be Ir.terestinrr to learn what members are in such terror of the peon vote that they feel able to disregard the interests of their real constituents. The Merits of Industrial Schools. In the present legislature, a3 in former sessions, the question of establishing one or more manual training schools in the territory Is receiving considerable attention. It is open to doubt whether the time has arrived for establishing such schools at public expense in Arizona, but the merits of the industrial school in the abstract cannot be questioned. This Is a great manufacturing country, as we all know, but the opportunities to learn mechanical srts are extremely limited.

And yet, nothing so surely assures future independence to a boy as a thorough course In manual training. There are three principal methods of trade Instruction, namely, the old apprentice system; the modern apprentice system that is, instruction In trade, combined with instruction in' other subjects, and the trade school. Even were it possible for all who de sire it to become apprentices on the old plan, the apprentice system is wasteful of the boy a time. Here is an illustration: In some of the best ma-1 manifests itself in headaches, aches, nervousness, that bearing-down rhino nnn of hlnucn a I'iimp im learns a trade In four years, each year consisting of three hundred days of eight hours; tfcat is, 2,400 hours in all. I 1 I Graduates of one of the manual train-! 1 ing schools or Chicago are aamutca: schools or Chicago are to the second year of apprenticeship in these shops; that Is, their work in the schools is recognized by the superin-1 tendents or tr.e machine 1 shops-, as equivalent to 2,400 hours in the.

shop. But the machine shop work of the manual training school boys has been 300 hours only. That Is, he learns in the school eiyrht times asapidly as in the shop. Hut it is well known that the number of apprentices is limited. We have then, two objections to the, old apprentice system; its waste of time, and Its exelusiveness.

The modern apprentice system combines instruction in general subjects 1 with instruction in a special trade. Many manufacturlnff establishments in Europe have trade instructions of this 1 kind, and have had for many years. Many people object to trade schools. 1 Xo near the term their OppOsl- tlon. This dislike is due to misconception, to Ignorance of what a modern trade school is.

Such people Imag- nik 1 TyinTom 1 ii Vi 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 oil (in I In which an immature boy is worked eight or ten hours a day and becomse, maybe, a skilful mechanic, but Is necessarily an ignorant man. In a modern trade school a boy devote3 a portion of his time to hi3 trade. Whether this portion is half or less depends upon his age and other conditions. The other part of his time is given to common or high school studies. In this country the studies would probably be English language, English literature, arithmetic, algebra, Geometry, history.

government, physics, chemistry, draw- ing, etc. With skilful teaching in a school of kind the boy will learn nearly or quite as much from books as he is now learning in an ordinary school. He becomes an educated mechanic. In training of this country a boy of, say, twenty years, has accomplished at least as much from books as the ordinary high school boys learned in the same time, and has learned also as much shop work as is taught In many engineering schools, with enough drawing to enable him to command from ten to fifteen dollars a week as draughtsman. He has also acquired sufficient general knowledge of machinery and materials and executive ability to give him a good control of men.

And these manual training schools are not trade-schools; that i3, the shop and drawing instruction do not occupy so prominent a place in their curriculum as those studies would in a trade school. The original manual training schools were established by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, by the Washington University of St. Louis, and by the Commercial club of Chicago. The first public manual training school was opened in Baltimore in March, 1S84. Xow the public manual training school is found in nearly every large city and in many small cities of the United States.

The Livestock Sanitary Law. A communication in yesterday's Republican betrayed a misunderstanding of the livestock sanitary law on the part of. the writer. The correspondent stated that the expense of maintaining the sanitary system is greater than the taxes derived from livestock. The fact is that while the sanitary board costs the territory perhaps JS.000 a year, the aggregate revenue derived from taxation of livestock is many times that sum.

Doubtless our correspondent meant to say that the expenses exceed the income derived from licenses and fees, but that is a fact of little importance. And the revenues from licenses do exceed the cost of the inspection service, as The Republican several times pointed out during the last campaign when politicians in this county were assailing the livestock law. The letter from our friend, printed yesterday, indicates also a misconcep- Healfy of American Women A Subject Much Discussed at Women's Clubs The Future of a Country Depends on the fieaJth of Its Women. jMrxT.CWiUadsen At the New York State Assembly of Mothers, a prominent New York doctor told the 500 women present that hen lthy American women were so rare as to be almost extinet. This seems to be a sweeping- statement of the condition of American women.

Yet how many do vou know who are perfectly well and tlonothave is some trouble arising1 from a derang-e-an ment of the female org-anism which ment 01 the female org-; feeling-, painful or irregular menstrua- tion, leueorrhoea, displacement of the uterus, ovarian trouble, indigestion or sleeplessness?

It regulates, strengthens and cures diseases of the female organism as can.

For thirty years it has been curing the worst forms of female complaints. Such testimony as the following-should be convincing. Mrs. T. C.

vYuladsen, of Manning-, ja-) writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham "1 can truly say that you have saved my life M-nrl rniinnt mv trmtit liilf tr villi in WOrds.

i The sanitary system is properly a de partment of the territorial government, and It is of no consequence if any partment not not self-sustainhig. The sanitary system was established for the benefit the public; iia well as the i livestock industry specifically, and on the whole the public is probably the i greater gainer.

Although a majority of the communications received may fail of publication because of a lack of space those which do appear are chor.cn usually because the writers seem to have something definite and original to say and not because we agreo with them. The modern newspaper artist is equal to all occasions. On the morning after the assassination of Grand Duke Serglus, the San Francisco Call appeared with a graphic illustration of the scene. Although, as it happened, the event took place in Moscow, the artist selected the bridge acroj3 the Neva, in St. Fetersburg, for his background, and a few hundred yardn therefrom he located the explosion.

He made a fine picture of a carriage-llyi'ig Into bits, and was quite as original in treatment of the august victim. We find Serglus sailing through the air, majestically, as a member of the imperial family should, with not a piece of him missing. 'Perhaps It wan the understanding of the Call that the grand duke was blown skyward in Si. Petersburg, and that he met his death upon striking the ground in Moscow, some hundreds of miles away. The Western Union Telegraph Company v.ou'.d find it profitable to inatail a cable across the Gila river, at the Maricopa Phoenix crossing.

Every time the bridge goes out the wires go with it, entailing a serious disturbance of telegraphic service. By using the telephone wire to Tucson a connection with the Western Union system can be maintained, of course', but such service is an unsatisfactory makeshift and all the trouble and annoyance could be avoided by laying a cable securely across the river.
