When one says "the political
pot is boiling" in southern Ari
zona, you- may also include the
weather. wmmmmmmmmmm
Flagstaff has boomed so much
this year that even'tbe grouch can
not' help but agree that there are
heaps of people here.
President Taft seems exceed
ingly busy these days answeringi
letters from local citizens, telling!
them he's glad they are glad be-'
cause of statehood.
Lower freight rates are coming!
and the Santa Fe has resumed
improvement work in spite of the
interstate commerce commission's1
attitude toward them.
It is reported that the congres
sional committee appointed to in
vestigate the Ballinger-Pinchot af
fair will make a report which ap
proves Ballinger's acts and dis
approves Pinchot.
Mrs. Hammer, editress of the
'Wickenburg Miner, has certainly
earned the right to change her
name to Post Maul,,so far as the
municipal government of that warm
little burg is concerned. The way
she made the political pollywogs
hunt shade was a trip-hammer
"stunt.
i There need be no great alarm
tover the sudden apparent prodig
ality of the people in mortgaging
-their homes for buzz wagons.
This variety of. the human kind
.will soon handle them in such
a manner as to throw the bal
ance of their wealth in the pro
.bate court.
The democratic central commit-
it .
tee of the territory held an ani
mated meeting at Prescott Satur
day. It -was" decided that there
would be no nonpartisan division
of the constitutional delegates.
Therein is written the commence
ment of the downfall ot democracy
in the great state of Arizona. This
is an indication that the democracy
will stand for the initiative and
referendum, the recall, educational
disqualification, socialistic domi
nation, and a few other freak
things that will make an admission
as a state extremely doubtful.
There are many eastern senators
regardless" of part who are not
only willing but anxious to pre
vent statehood if any opportunity
is offered. Already such articles
as the following, from the Spring
field (Mass.) Republican, are ap
pearing in down east papers;
"When Arizona and New Mex
ico become states, as congress has
authorized them to be, they will
send four senators to Washington,
and there will bo national interest
in seeing with what kind of men
these-places will be filled. Much
ot the delay in the admission of
Arizona and New Mexico to the
Union has been due to the fear
that the quality of their senators
might not be first' class( nor is it
a pleasing thought to many that
these two new, states with thuir
populations of mixed-character are
to. have the same number of vo
ters, and theoretically to have as
much influence in the upper branch
ofitho federal government, as the
older? states possess. There are
drawbacks upon out republican
scheme of government, but the
most serious of them do not lie on
the side of trusting the people.
At the same time these coming
states owe it to the rest of us to
do their best."
An exchange says "a dark horse
desires to fight Jack Johnson."
Make it a,Jmule.
A Kansas City dispatch says
the Pottawatomie Indians now use
their thumbs as a mark instead of
the 'X" in attesting their signa
tures. It is handier and they don't
need any ink on their thumbs if
they are like our Indians.
The telegraphic dispatches that
said a great deluge of water was
coming down the canyon and
would wipe out the business por
tion of Bisbee, merely go to show
that someone in that vicinity made
much out of a little water. The
washout failed to materialize.
A splendid reception was given
Delegate Cameron at Douglas. It
was nonpartisan in character and
a spontaneous outpouring of the
people. - Arrangements are being
made at Phoenix for a similar re
ception to Mr. Cameron Saturday
evening, by the Commercial club.
It is reported that a Mexican
froze to death on a piece of ice at
Maricopa station last week. This
in luly, and at Maricopa, sounds
like a Harvey house dinner bell to
a man suffering with dyspepsia
and. nervous prostration. How
ever, the story says that he was
drunk and slept on a cake of ice.
The Adviser
(Afr. Roosevelt will assume the rSle
of an advisory publicist. Cur
rent Guess.)
Teddy will tell us the things we
should do,
The things we should drink and
the things we should chew;
He'll tell us the way.
We should preach and should
pray
And the reason our hens are refus
ing to lay,
And the time to cut corn and the
time to make hay,
And just who has the shuffle
And who has thedeal,
The place for a ruffle
And how to roast veal,
And how to build bridges, and how
to make bread,
And how to remember the things
we have read,
And how to write headings,
And what kind of pants
Are worn at noon weddings,
And how to kill ants,
'And how to peel onions and what's
good for bunions,
And how to can berries, and care
for'canaries,
And how to make fences,
And how to set hens,
And what are the tenses,
And how to fix dens,
And how to raise babies,
And how to make kites,
And how to cure rabies,
And how to run fights,
And how to run trolleys and cook
hot tamales and what to
feed collies,
And how to stuff pillows and when
to trim willows and what
causes billows,
And how to keep cool,
Cure balks in a mule,
Store eggs so they'll keep,
House cattle and sheep,
Heal burns on the hand,
Make chests to expand,
Embroider a monogram, repaint a
chair,
Retrim an old bonnet, and what
will grow hair
O Teddy will tell us the things we
should know
Just as he's been telling since
long, long ago I
Jefferson Toombs.
It is true
All this he knew,
But sad to relate, .
At this late date
He knows not how
To milk, an ordinary cow.
Wanted One hundred more
houses in Flagstaff to accommo
date the influx of population.
With Roosevelt keeping his
hands off in New York and Taft
refusing to make nominations and
a platform in Ohio, the next cam
paign in the east promises but
dull sport.
It is extremely doubtful whether
there is a whole hearted desire for
statehood buttoned up within the
breast of many of the corporation
officials in Arizona. A freak con
stitution would do the trick and
the people would have consider
able difficulty in pointing out the
guilty parties.
Repudiate Labor Party
Within the next few days the
Phoenix Typographical union will
meet, so it is said, for the purpose
of considering the recent labor
conference, which met in Phoenix
and launched the labor party to
nominate delegates to the consti
tutional convention. Delegate
Keddington, one of those who op
posed the labor men entering poli
tics in a partisan manner, walked
out of the conference as soon as it
was seen that the socialists were
manipulating the affairs to suit
their own ends. For this, Ked
dington has been denounced by
the leaders in the labor party. It is
laid that the Phoenix printers will
follow the example of the Tucson
printers and repudiate the labor
party leaders.
Soreness of the muscles, wheth
er induced by violent exercise or
injury, is quickly relieved by the
free application of Chamberlain's
Liniment. This liniment is equal
ly valuable for muscular rheuma
tism, and always affords quick re
lief. Sold by all druggists.

Better than Ever
Putting Money In Clothes
PUTTING your money into the clothes
we are offering now at special sale is
just as good a place as you can find for it.
The difference between present prices
and what the clothes sell for regularly is
a bigger .rate of interest than you can get
in other ways. Just think of buying a
Hart
Shaftner
&Marx
suit at such a cut in price as we are mak
ing now. Even if you are "stocked up
pretty well it will pay you to add at '
least one summer weight suit on such a
chance. The amount you have to pay '
is very small compared "to the months of
satisfaction you'll get out of the clothes.
We are able to fit your taste in fabrics
and styles; the sooner you come the
easier this will be.
Suits that were sold at $25 are now $19
All Men's $4.50 and $5.00 Oxfords, Now $3.75

This Store is the Home of the Hart Shaffner Marx Clothes.
