"Pride comes before a fall," and in
English history many a man has
just been in the height of his power
to "be deposed and humiliated, as it
vi ere, the next morning.
Charles I was perhaps the great
est example of this, but just as dra
matic and interesting is the meteor
l'.ke rise and fall of Cromwell. Not
the Cromwell who made the brief
period of republican sway in Eng
land a brilliant success, but the
Cromwell who went around England
dispelling and wrecking the churches
to gain the favor of Henry VIII. The
same Cromwell who is told by Car
dinal Wolxey, in Shakespeare's
"Henry VIII," briefly but decisively
to "Put away ambition."
Starting his career as the son of
a blacksmith, Thomas Cromwell rose
quickly until in one week he was
first made Karl of Essex, and then
Great Chamberlain of England. But
this same man, a short time later,
was in a cell in the Tower writing
to the king, not with the bold arro
gence that had always been his, but
sending the craven message 'Mercy!
Mercy! Mercy!"
Although he had been making
great headway with the king, with
each additional appointment, the no
bies were more and more jealous.
On June 9, 1540, Parliament was still
sitting discussing the religious
question with a view to the settle
ment of some uniform doctrine. The
Lords of the Council left the Cham
ber to go across to Whitehall to din
ner before mid day; and as they
wended their way across the g.eat
courtyard to Westminster, a. high
wind carried away Cromwell's flat
c.up from his head. It was then
the custom when one gentleman was
even accidently uncovered for those
who were with him also to doff
their "bonnets." But, as an attend
ant ran and recovered Cromwell's
flying headgear on that occasion, the
haughty minister looked around and
saw all his colleagues, once so hum
ble, hohling their own hats upon
their heads. "A high wind indeed
this must be," sneered Cromwall, "to
blow my cap off and for you to
need to hold yours on."
When returning to the Council
Chamber the Duke of Norfolk stop
ped him and told him that it was not
meet that traitors should sit amongst
loyal gentlemen.
"I am no traitor" shouted Crom
well, dashing his cap upon the
ground; but the captain of the guard
was at the door, and still protesting
the wretched man was hurried to the
Water Gate and rowed swiftly to the
Tower. Norfolk, as he left the Coun
cil chamber, tearing off the fallen
minister's badge of the Garter as a
last stroke of ignominy.
Cromwell knew he was doomed
for by the iniquitous act that he
himself had forged for the ruin of
others he might be attained and con
demned legally without his own
presence or defense. "Mercy,! Mercy!
Me.'cy!" he wrote to the king in his
agony; but for him there was as lit
tle mercy as he had shown to oth
ers. His death was a foregone con
clusion, for Henry's fears had been
aroused; but Cromwell had to kept
alive long enough for him to furnish
such information as would provide

a plausible pretext fo.-" repudiation
of Queeil Anne, who had married the
king through the schemes of Crom
well.
The king was already tired of his
queen and sorely -wanted, the. mar
riage annulled, which, as the mar
riage was of his own making, Crom
well opposed. Cromwell afterwards
swore that he knew the marriage had
never been consummated, and never
would be. When all this was sworn
to, Cromwell's hold upon the world
was done. Upon evidence now un
known, he was condemned for treas
on and heresy without being heard
in his own defense, and on the 28th
of July; 1540. he stood, a sor.-y fi
gure, upon the scaffold of the Tow
er. Cromwell confessed he had been
a sinner, and had travailed after
things of this world; but he fev
erently avowed he was a good Cath
olic and no heretic, and had harbor
ed no thoughts of evil towards his
sovereign. But. all his protestations
availed nothing; and his head, the
cleverest head in England, was pitia
bly hacked off by a bungling headsman.

married this afternoon at the home
of Miss Smith's parents 820 Xoith
Third street. Not until Mr. Meaker
marched bravely into the county
clerk's office and demanded a mar

overt act, the fiict he was contem
plating marriage though his friends

OPEN FORUM FOR DEBATING
STATE WIDE PROHIBITION
. , i
The very important issue of state
wide prorihibition has been raised. A
campaign in favor of a constitutional
amendment will be shortly instituted.
This, like all other important ques
tions has two sides, on each of which
are found honest and intelligent per
sons. The Republican has decided to pro
vide for a reasonable discussion of
this issue in its pages, allowing to
each side at least a half column daily
for signed articles, for which there will
be no charge. Xo anonymous article
will be published.
It is only stipulated that the com
munications for and against prohibi
tion be Just and fair and that in no
case shall there be any wild and ex
travagant statement that will in any
way reflect upon the reputation of
Phoenix for good order.
It is suggested by The Republican
that either side, desiring to avail it
self of this offer of space, name a
committee through which all matter
relating to the issue shall be trans
mitted. In such case, all communica
tions received nt this office from
other sources will be rejected. We
believe that this arrangement is ne
cessary to keep the discussion within
reasonable lines.
No paid advertisements from either
side will be accepted.
THE CALAMITY HOWLER
There is one man who is more
dangerous than the anarchist. He is
the calamity howler.
The man who pretends to think
that the adoption of the statewide
dry amendment would bring disaster
is a mental defective who should be
restrained. He has no right to run
at large.
There can be no permanent harm
from getting over a debauch: the
harm comes in accumulating the jag.
To the calamity howler the propo
sition that sober men are wortij more
to a community than drunkards
comes as a distinct shock.
The idea that drinking poison is
injurious seems to him the very es
sence of absurdity.
The theory that wasting money for
lio.uor is a bad policy seems to him
to be too ridiculous to be entertained.
A business that impoverishes the
most the man who pursues it tiie
most arduously is regarded by the
calamity howler as an economic
blessing.
He pretends to think that the, more
money a community wastes the rich
er it becomes.
He pretends to think that waste
makes business and that a nation
can build itself by destroying the
materials from which it is made.
He pretends to think that the more
money there is spent for liquor the
more its .victims spend for clothes
and food and shelter.
The calamity howler tries to make
you believe that it would ruin the
state to stop an. economic leak, to
turn off the spigot of waste.
Ha pretends to think that a sober I
and efficient people endangers pros
perity and that a man becomes the
most solvent just when he is the
nearest broke.
Every calamity howler gets his in
spiiation from a keg of beer.
His economics comes from the man
with a white apron.
Maine, sober, was able to put more
money in the bank for its population
than any other state in the union.
Kansas, sober, has accumulated
more property for its population than
any other state in the union.
And yet, in the face of these facts,
the calamity howler is still on the
job, shouting the same old falsehood
that the worst thing that could
happen to Arizona is to sober up and
take the cure.
The facts ate that the best thing
that could happen to Arizona is to
rid herself of the poisons that have
accumulated in her social system.
She must eliminate the crime, the
insanity, tho pauperism, the waste,
the awful cost of the liquor curse.
It is not going to hurt her to stand
erect.
She is not going to go broke by
uaving her money.
She is not going to suffer because
she puts her whiskey money into bet
ter clothes and better food and bet
ter homes.
Making more legitimate business
and destroying Illegitimate business
never injured a Rtate, community nor
an Individual in the entire history
of the human race.
Moreover, it never will.
Swat the calamity howler.
