J tr . trI I IIP THE FALLS CITY TRIBUNE , FRIDAY , JULY 14 1905. = ' E. A. Tucker. Hon. E. A. Tuflcqr , who has just returned from Arizona , \vai seen by tlie reporter of tliii paper at tlie National liotol ii this city. The judge was look M r > rigf well and seems to be qnjoy ing his work immensely , T < the.1 reporter he said : "I an in'Ofe than pleased with Ari zbrih. No stale , or territory ii theUnion has a greater futuri bcf5r.e it. Its industries an Only in their infancy. The min critl wealth of the territory ii unlimited , and it can be truth fully 'jfsud that the people o Arizoutt'fii'e enjoying1 their tul share o'f the prosperity whicl the people of the United State : arC today enjoying , Phoenix is a beautiful city and is the capital of the lerrl lory , but Tucson is the metrop lis. Koth are prosperous cities n n d will compare favorabl1 with any other cities ol tin same size anywhere. They an peculiarly commercial cities although both are surroundei by ricli mints , but they are inor remote , further removed fron the business part than in som other large towns. .Nogales is a bea\UUul littl city of about 2,000 inliabllant in the United States , and 2,00 inhabitants in Mexico , ( locate on the line ) and is a thriving prosperous city , but the bustl and stir of the territory is i the mining camps , such as Mis bee , Clifton and Globe. My district consists of Grahai and Gila counties. Graham i especially noted for the riclmes of its soil and its agriculture wealth. The farmers there av all very prosperous. I know c no place in the world where would rather own a farmi tha in the Gila Valley. It is s close to the mining camps th ; there is always a ready tnarkt for everything the farmer raise ; My home is at Globe , in Gil county , probably the riches mining camps in the territor and although it has only aboi 7,000 inhabitants , in its bus ness and wealth , it wilj con pare ( very favorably with an city of that size in the Unite States. I predict that withi five years , Globe will be tl metropolis of Arizona. While the people of Arizor are in favor of statehood , a vei large majority of them are o posed to double statehood , tin is to being yoked up with Ne Mexico as one state. They a in favor of single statehood , bi opposed to 'double slatehoo as it is called. I have been treated ve kindly , indeed , by all of tl people in the territory wi whom I have come in contai They are as a rule a gencroi chivalrous a n d whole-soul class of people , and are activ energetic , and in ability a : morals will compare , favorab with any other state , or ter tory in the Union. No , the paper * there are n by any means all like the 'Ti son Citizen. ' As a rule th are very fair , and treat a str ? ger with the greatest courier The people of Nebraska shov not be prejudiced against A zona because of the pcculi statements made by one pap It is a custom that paper has saying something unkind everyone , hut it is considei harmless. The editor is n under indictments for crimii libel. libel.We We 1mve a splendid bar whole souled gentlemen , whc ability will rank favorably w the bar of Nebraska , or ; other eastern state. They Ii ; treated me with uniform cc tesy , and in iact have assis me in my work upon the bei so that , although almost stranger I feel as tnuch at he in my district in Arizona : do in the first judicial distric Nebraska where I have resii for more than twenty-live ye ; Globe offers peculiar huh ments to men of wealth. ' . opportunities for investment are many , and the idle capital I of the ISast , which is looking ! for a'chance for investment ! could not do better than to in vestigate Globe , or many other growing towns and cities in the great tcrirtory of Arizona. During ten months of the year the climate is delighllul and even during the months of July and Augustwhilo the ther mometer will register higher , it is very questionable , indeed , if the people suiter more from the effects of the heat in Arizona than in the eastern state's. What line ol business there is the most prosperous ? Well , 1 hardly know. Kvery line of business there is prosperous , excepting possibly the under taking business. That is very dull. We hardly have a death there , except by accident , and in a few exceptional cases where parties from the south , or east go thqre in search of health , but put oiT going until it is 'everlastingly too late'and even then most of tnem recover. No , I do not advise the undertaker to go there , but there is an ex cellent opening for all branches of buslnim Yes , the territory is slightly democractic , but the people there are so busy making money , extracting the rich ores from the mines , that they have no nine to talk politics. They are satisfied with the present business administration and arc willing to let 'well enough' alone. The } ' are peculairly im pressed with Roosevelt's policy of 'a square deal for every man , ' and the good people of Arizona are so strongly impressed with this sentiment that they are firmly of the opinion that when Arizona is admitted as a state it will be the great state of Arizona , not connected or joined with any' other state or terri tory , and within a very few years thereafter will be one of the richest and best states in the Union. " The Judge stated that his leave of absence would expire August Iftth , but that he ex pected to return to Arizona about the first. Our Attitude Toward Fads. A fad is a hobby , a freak , a whim. Hobbies are numerous , man ) ' arc peculiar , some are re ligious. Freaks abound , whims are here , there , yonder. Fads like the poor arc always with us. No sooner is one dead when an other comes to life. Religions fads , multitudes of them , arc dead. Keligious , and other cults are dying and coming to birth almost every year. Sects , poss- sessing a religious tinge , more or less pronounced , are born , pros per , grow , sicken , die , are for gotten. Our age is not more prolific in these things than former periods have been. TJiere are new things under the sun ; but religious cults , fads , hobbies , freaks , whims , isms , are not to t be listed under the head of "new things , " they are old , very old. It the April number of "The World ToDay" is an article by Jamer Kowland Angell , Pro a fessor of Psychology in the Uni versity of Chicago , entitled : "Christian Science from a Psy chologist Point of View" from which the following is quoted : " 1 wish to emphasize , at the outset , the fact that we are hero dealing with no wholly novel phenomena. The history of religion - ligion is replete , in all countries and in all periods , with instance ! in of similiar character. Not to gc Hi further afield , one has but to recall > Hiy y call the Messianic outburst of ; few years ago. At sundry place ir- both in this country and ii Europe , men suddenly appeared : h claiming more or less divim powers , sometimes calling them ne selves the Messiah , working mira cles of healing , preaching repen of tance , and in various ways arrc gating to themselves religion fi. leadership. And in Chicago ii self we find Dr. Dowieaml eve : ie here we are not exempt from i THE FALLS CITY MID-SUMMER CARNIVAL PARKER AflUSEMENT CO.

" As a matter of fact the growth of Dowieism has been more rapid than that of Eddyism. Mormon- sin in the first few years grew aster than either Dowieism or 3ddyism. The spread of spirit- alism , following the appearance > f the Fox Sisters in. or near , Rochester , N. Y. in 1848 , was nose wonderful. Pages could be easily filled with cults , ism , fads , lobbies and crazes that have ap peared in connection with reli gious life of the people of Chris- ian , andother , lands. The ism we may believe , will go the way of lie isms of yesterday , and the day before. What should be the at- ituclc of the church towards hese phenomena in human ex perience and history ? Tt should be that of the belli gerent ; the church has a more inporlanl mission than the pro secution of a warefare on the isms hat , for a time , appear above the horizon. The mission of the church is unqiue , and of trans cendent importance. Its specific work is , by preaching of the Gos- ; > eland the administration of the ordinances to make bad men good ind good men better. They must be in sympathy with every good thing. The pastors of the c'.iurch in Thes- salonica were exhorted by Paul to "prove all things. " Titus was told to "be ready unto every oed work. " The church of Christ is entitled to any and all good that might be in any of these isms and fads. The en emy of metis souls and right , it seems wants to get as much good in with the bad , so that the peo- will take it the more readily and easily. "We are to "know the truth , and the truth shall make you free. " All the isms and fads come from a mis-understanding of the division and application ol Scripture. We are saved on this side of the cross- All salva tion is in Christ. lie is the head , all and in all to His people. There is not a good thing in an } ' fad , or ism , that is not in the teaching of Jesus and His elect ambassadors. " All things are yours. " How will not He give you all things with Him. The condition of membership in the church of God is Supreme devotion and obedience to the Son of God. The true question is this , "Dost thou believe on the Son of God ? " Whosever belie ves in his heart that Jesus is the Son of God ; is entitled to baptism and church membership , lie may under stand much or little. If he is willing to commit himself to Christ , as the prophet who will teach him , as the priest who will intercede for him , as the king who will rule him , give him the hand of Christian fellowship. The real bond of Christian union is a common devotion to our com mon Lord. Not What think ye of Mrs. Mary Baker Glover Pat terson Simmons Eddy , White , Dowie. or any one else. "What think ye of Christ ? " is the cru cible. Put Christ in the heart , the temple , and what ever ought not to be there lie bids it depart. The gates of hades can not prevail against the church of Christ. Long after the isms of our time have fallen into the grave of obvilion , far beyond a hope of resurrection , the church will exist "fair as the noon , clear as the sun , and terrible as an army with banners. " EI.DKK J. CRONKNHKKGEK. Minister Christian Church. When We Go To Press. It is five o'clock on Thursday evening and time for us to go to press. The last galley has been proved and sent up stairs where the corrections are made and the type transferred to the space that has been reserved for it in the forms. The local reporters have hurried in their last reports of the round-up of the town and up stairs is heard the sound of the mallet as quoins are driven into place that the closely locked type may be safely brought down stairs where the last operation of getting out the issue of The Tribune is to take place. The first form is carried down and placed on the bed of the press and the three others follow quickly. Some time ago the generator of the gasoline engine was ignited and now breathes with a measured cadence as though it were eager to attack the task before it. The papers , the first side of which had been printed on Tuesday , are placed on the feed board of the press , the foreman makes one more critical examintion of the machin ery , the throttle of the engine i opened , the pulley wheels over head begin to turn and the belts transmit the energy to drive wheels of the big Cranston press , whose c } Under turns , clothed with a. white sheet of paper which in a moment is delivered on a table , neatly printed , and as other follow it , they are seized upon and borne to long tablet where nimble fingers fold then : intocompact form ready for the mails. Addresses are affixed to each , and as packages for each town and rural route are completed , they are quickly tied and placed in waiting mail sacks to be borne tc the post office and sent out or the trains , or to be ready for the local rural carriers when they shall start on their trip the nexl morning. For the next few hours the Tri bune office is a very busy place , and the scene of activity is made more real and vivid by its acconv pahment of humming wheels and the erratic exhaust of the engine , But at last the task is completed , over two thousand paper * have been prinicd , folded and mailed and the tired force disperses , " weary , perhaps , \vith the stren uous tasks of the da- , but com forted by the consciousness of a task well clone. The next morning , while subscribers all over Richardson county are read ing : their papers , the same force is preparing to get out another one and so the wheel of newspaper life revolves a never-ending cycle. If you delight in scenes of activ ity and bustling industry , come down to The Tribune office any Thursday evening and will you perhaps appreciate to some extent the nature of the task involved in getting out a first class local paper.
