Is tho singlo life tho only successful ono? , President-elect Taft considers the old said existence the Ideal one. Tq At- lanta normal school pupils bo said: "I think that the secret of most do mestic Infelicity is In tho fact that young women think that unless they are .married their lives aro not a success. As a matter of fact,T think the reverse Is exactly true." Mr. Taft la a good 'jollier-" To pu plls in a school of technology he says the world's greatest men aro its en gineers; to law students ho says that tho law Is the noblest of professions; to divinity students he says that the ministry is the highest calling. No liarm Is done If bis pleasant utterances are not taken too seriously. Unfortunately, his remarks on tho ad visability of remaining unmarried seem to be taken seriously. And, coming from a president-elect, they involve a radical change In tha policy of the government, being a complete reversal of tha Roosevelt doctrine of big fam ilies. Singlo blessedness, if it is blessedness at all, is the very doubtful blessedness of absoluto selfishness. Tho general movement toward taxation of the bachelor Is not without good reason. Ho Is a parasite upon society, contrib uting nothing toward the only real thing in this world life. And the same is true of the unmarried woman. There Is no getting away from the two fundamental yearnings of all ani mal existence self-preservation and procreation. Indeed these yearnings ex tend beyond animal creatfon, and are basic laws oven of the vegetable king dom. The person who falls to bring at least . ono life Into tho world dies in debt for his or her own birth. He or she may perform high social service of other sorts. The bachelor wedded to science or art or mechanics may leave tho world better than it was when he camo into it. The teach er may contribute to life in making it better worth living. But in doing theso things, they do not pay their full debt. On tho con. trary, the higher the development of their character and the higher their capability for service, the greater is thoir obligations to recreate their own kind. K Wo have never taken any great stock . in tho report that there is a coldness developing between Mr. Taft and Mr. Roosevelt, but thero aro suspicious cir- , cumstances, wo admit. For instance, Mr. Taft's suggestion to tho woman toachers that there may be a more lofty sphero In llfo for them than the one roached via the matrimonial altar. That ' Is not precisely Rooseveltlan, we think. "Uncle Sam" Is to get out of Cuba soon, but that tight littlo island docs not want to got it into its head that J the old gentleman isn't liable to drop in for another pop call of a year or moro, If occasion seems to demand tho same hereafter. j A New York society woman is to have her pet cat oporated on for a very "delicate complaint We suppose tho sur geons wouldn't have the nerve to an- nounce that "the oporation was bril llantly successful, but the patient died ' nine times," no matter what tho result. v SHEEP ARE SIMPLE, BUT Following their leader moro than two hundred snoop out of a band of 5,000 jumped from a high cliff in tho stato of Washington to their doath. The rest wero stopped from following only by tho hardest efforts of tho herders. That's sheep-like. But what is of more importance la that it's also human-like, Wo do a lot of theorizing about our individuality of thought and action, but tho theorizing Is just about all there is to it. Ninety-nine hundredth of our think' lng slides along in deep worn grooves Tho man who lots a thought slip out of a groove is denounced or pitied as a crank. , Men who havo contributed original ideas to tho world aro extremely few, and they aro peltod with anathomas and ridicule' until their ideas begin to bo popular, whon wo all, sheep like, chase after them pell moll, whether to good or disaster. The notion that is popularly acceptod for the moment, however silly it may bo, goes, Rulo of the majority needs no written constitution to make it work out in our private lives. The heaviest burden our minds carry is memory. Our commonest rule of action is Imi tation. Our most serious contemplation of any act is an effort to recall how some body has successfully done the same thing. With sheop-llke simplicity we follow the fashions in dress. A milliner in Paris designs the hats for all the occidental world of woman hood. A London tailor is tho bell-wether, whose lead tho men of two continents follow. Wo read the book that everybody else is reading. We all want to get into the theatre that is crowded. Even ailments that aro for the time most genteel aro the most infectious. Never Jumps a sheep with a bell on Over anything whatever Over a cliff or wall or timber But a second follows after, And a third upon a second And a fourth and fifth and dozenth First ono sheep and then a hundred, Till they all havo got clear over. So wo human beings always Seem to follow ono another, When wo see a signal waving In the air a tail uplifted As the first one leapeth over Then we follow, thicker, faster, Till our littlo world is nothing But a bllndly-lod procession. 4 In the courso of our evolution from tho lower animals wo must havo paused a long time In the sheep period. DON'T LET A FROCK COAT SCARE YOU. Actions, not words, are what will de termine tho opinion which the great American public is to entertain of its national legislative assembly. t Mere verbal protest will not avail. Representative Donby of Michigan, in defending the house of representa tives from tho insinuations and accusa tion! of President Roosevelt, said: "1" know he (President Roosevelt) must have failed to realize that, In encouraging in the popular mind dis trust of this body, he is striking at the very foundation of popular govern- meet." Denby should remember that "the popular mind" is just that final intel ligent common senso of the 86,000,000 peoplo of the nation, and that this "mind" will trust or distrust its con gress on the record. If congress shows no disposition to protect tho criminally disposed; if It passes legislation to ex pedite not to hinder prosecution of the thieves if those who mako up congress keep their "speculation'; and their public acts apart; If senators will cease to practice "influence" along with ''law," and members will draw fees for tho unmixed activities of legal prac tice instead of mingled services to in terests which aro opposed to the gen eral good; if congress will begin to see things from tho people's point of vlow; if members of the house will be as eager for tho passago of good laws as for drawing "mileage allowances" for miles not traveled, or Increasing salaries not Justly earned; if congress would have loss scandals about com mittees liko that which makes laws for our navy, and when scandals come would spend more time in seeking truth and less in punishing those who bring exposure; if congress would rovise Its rules; if congress would promote instead of holding back progressive legislation; If congress did not ever rido on passes, seok tho appointment of a bad Judi ciary, grant public moneys to the rail ways; misuso tho frank, postal telegraph and telephone; if congress did not mako buncombo speeches, nourish tho fetish of tho party names, Job in patronage, wasto the people's time and do a few moro things of such liko trend then, with a better graco the public might listen when its Denbys do their solemn protest, and its Perkinses tako the floor to say: "It fs dangerous to the republic that a largo portion of tho people should 'havo their confidence shaken in the Vf3F4 ' Judges who interpret ' tho law; it Is equally dangerous that their confidence should bo impaired In those who onact tho laws; and it is for this reason that tho duty dovolves upon the lawmakers not to allow tho integrity of their motives to bo lightly questioned." Poohl Mr. Chadbandl We are not improssed. A Kentucky court has decided that a husband has a right to whistle or sing while his wifo is lecturing him or argu ing with him. Ho may be within his legal rights to conduct himself in that manner, but wo think f ow husbands will ever practico it enough to get in tho habit of it. Algernon Edgar Oascoigne Cecil has offered a bill in parliament to suppress the suffragettes. In our opinion, the rampant femininity represented in tho ranks of tho suffragettes Isn't going to shy at the efforts of a man with a namo like thatt "The Cuban congressmen will wear silk hats and frock coats in honor of tho dignified office they hold," says the Clovoland Plain Doalcr- Surely thero will be ono member from Wayback to protest against any N such hlghf alutin foolishness. , A -?" King Alfonso contempU-.tes a trip in an air ship. Wo suppose his majesty wants to convinco the anarchists that he may be depended upoa to provide his own finish, if given sufficient lati tude. "The world cannot prog) ess without the sacrifico of human life '.o scienco, ' ' says tho Baltimore Star. That, however, is no shadow of an excuse In tho perni cious activity of the rockletB automobll 1st. I "Ono can buy a bcttei auto today for $1,500 than he could for $3,000 a few years ago," says tho Nashville American. Tho great majority of peo plo can't and couldn't do anything of the kind. Thornton J. Halns says a trial for life is like a poker game tho defendant holding douces at tho start and tho pros ecution having a hand full of aces. Mr. Hains seems to have made his bluff good. We sea no particular reason why Mr. Roosevelt should go to Africa for the hide of a rhinoceros when he might so much moro easily skin a standpatter or so right in Washington. The Oklahoma legislature has official ly abolished tho "Hon." so frequently attaching to Individual members' names. Thus another pleasant littlo fiction goes to the land of things that were. King Edward and Emperor William are to meet soon. Presumably, the lat ter will tell tho former all about the latter s hay crop and the servant girl situation in the German household. The Sultan of Turkey doubtless fig ured that Austria's check for $10,000, 000 in hand was a good deal better than a couple of 2x4 provinces not even in tho bush any longer. "Without a congress after March 4, Mr. Roosevelt is apt to got out of con dition," says tho Chicago Post. And how about congress without a Mr. Roosevelt? A Maine man has written 11,7000 words on a sincle costal card. We have no doubt, moreover, that ho is the cham - pion checker player of his town. "Frenzied, capricious, self-centered, and self-exalted" aro a few of the long and handsomo words former Senator Towne hands Mr. Roosevelt. Tho list of things Mr. Roosevelt will carry into Africa is a very long one, but, thank heaven, it doesn't Include the congressional war. Congress' recently awakened tender solicitude for tho lately execrated Mr. Roosevelt's feelings is touching if not altogether convincing. Lillian Russell's announced intention not to marry again may help Nat Good win to rest content and stand pat on his present record. Whon tho administration blows up tho powder trust, wo supposo it Is sched uled to make a noise that will be heard around tho world. We bellovo tho Sultan of Turkey might havo been induced to part with Herzegovina and Bosnia for $9,999, 999.09. Ohloans should consider tho Lilloy Georgo L. He appears to bo successful ly holding on to two offices simultan eously. And now science finds another evi dence of tho missing link. It is quite possible for an apo to have apendicitis. President Roosevelt has not increased his popularity with certain portly colo nels since ho took that ride. All tho world loves a lover because it enjoys a joke. i-!&mm& 3mms&m?mEmi I-fe, rlbuW r , mw;:rsuo9a!alSH5iS Y j " vssri "ir 'DAILY' ARIZONA SILVER -BELT DID YOUTH twMiAfw JM" Th Aged Angler: "Oh, aye, the last tith I caught were r proper big 'un, n' no mistake."

It would be unjust to Mr. Taft, and it would raise false hopes In the south, to give his declaration on this vitally Important matter a meaning which is not fairly deducible from his language. But if the statement which we quote above means that in making appoint ments to tho office in tho south, Mr. Taft will not select men whoso presence In official positions would be objection able to the great majority of the white people of that section, we think It is not an unreasonable conclusion that Mr. Taft will appoint no negroes to important offices in tho southern states He docs not say this in so many words. but wo'believo that this Is the inter pretation of bis language which will prevail in the south. The political ad vantage which Mr. Taft's party would derive from tho policy of putting In offlco men whose presence In official po sitions would not create among the white residents in tho southern commun itlos a "sense of alienism in the govenv ment" might not result in a political revolution In tho south but it would strengthen the confidence of the south in the practical wisdom of Mr. Taft. URGES TEACHERS TO ORGANIZE From the .lournnl of Education. Teachers should organize in every county and state. The New York teach ers and the Chicago federation of grade teachers havo taught their fellow-teach ers a noble lesson. Tho Chicago princl pals aro strengthening their organiza tion and making it a power. The next great educational advance is likely to bo along tho line of close, protective, and promotive organization. The teachers will present a sorry spec tacle in American life if they remain as individuals. Tho wrongs that teachers suffer individually and collectively can bo righted more quickly, more completely and with lesss waste of time and money through a well-organized association than In any other way. Superintcn dents, principals, secondary school teachers, special teachers, as a whole, 1 and Brade teachers should each havo thoir own most efficient organizations Havo no fear of mistakes; only learn from them. MR, TAFT. AS "BR'ER 'POSSUM" From tho Atlanta Constitution. It was the south, In the person of the arogant stato of Mlssissippf, whero they grow such antipodal extremes as John Sharpe Williams and Vardaman, that gavo imortality to tho Roosevelt admin istration by sending down to history tho contemplative Teddy bear. It will be the privilege of Georgia to insure for the democratic south a sim ilar distinction in the Taft republican administration by bestolwng upon the illustrious Ohioan, now a guest in our midst, the appellation of 'fast friend and International advocate of Br'er 'Possum." Marsupial replaces ursa minor; tho king is dead, long live the kingl SIMPLIFIED ADMINISTRATION From the Ohio Stato Journal. One by one tho cities are adopting tho centralized form of government known as the commission plan. There is ono thing to bo noticed about this new style of municipal government, and that is, it seems to bo succeeding, for thero is no return to the old complicated power-distributed plan whero the com mission idea has been intelligently tried. Hore is one thing that the people should agree upon and insist upon as a matter of public policy, that their government should be simple and direct They get tho best service out of such a plan. And then it must occur to all observing peoplo that intricate and com plex machinery serves to hide needless expenso and various forms of graft, which would not bo possible if four or five men, standing out in the daylight of publicity, would have to shoulder the blame.
