WHO PAYS THE BILLS.

Whe pays the bills? Who feeds the

drunkard wife? Who supports the beg
carly tramps, who having wasted theiI
money in drink, wander about the country
Who repairs the losses caused by the failure
Of Incorporate merchants and reckless and
half-intoXicated business men? Who makes
good the damages caused by the blunders of
drunken worlmen, and the hindrances OF
business caused by the sprees of Incorporate
employees Who pays for the railroad
wrecks caused by drunken conductors and
engineers? Who builds the asylums where
crazy drunkards are kept? Who supports
the idiotic children of drunken men? Who
pays the attorneys and iuries and judges who
try drunken criminals? Who pays the ex.
penses of trials and commitments and
executions occasioned by the crimes OF
drunken men? Who pays for the property
destroyed and burned by drunken men?
Who builds and supports almshouses,
which but for drink might remain un-

recklessness and insanity of drunken hus-
bands and fathers? Who pays for the in

YOUNG MAN, AHoY

''Wine in wit out. Angelica Every Week.
And yet that old saying is only true after a
certain stage of the game has been passed.
Many men, and even most men are more
witty and facetious after drink or two OF
wine than before. It doesn't take young
man long to find out that he can say more
iunny things, and raise more laughs at his
witticisms when he is a trifle cooked than
when he is his own natural self. When he
finds himself in company with others, and all
are trying to be cute, ii is perfectly natural
that he should avail himself OF every means
within his reach, to "keep his end up as the
saying is. So he hoists in a few drinks, and
in his revised shape he finds no difficulty in
raising laugh at will. In fact, he is more OF
n fellow drunk than he is sober, and he knows
it. But he goes on and forces the machinery
too hard, until instead OF being funny, he gets
either idiotic or ugly, and then the very fel-
lows who admired and applauded him call
him a hog, and want the bar tender to fire
him. This sort OF thing goes on night after
pight, until the fellow grows to be regular
drunken bum, and don't amount to anything
drunk or sober. Young man look the matter
over, and see if this doesn't hit your case.
See if you don't take more drinks to make
you funny than for any other reason.-pan-

We have more than once pointed out how
business is coming to support temperance
more and more strongly every year. There
was another illustration of the fact in Phila-
delphia. Edwin S. Cramp, of the great
shipbuilding company, which employs an
army of workmen, appeared before the
License Court to demonstrate against the
granting oflicenses to four saloon-k eepers in
the vicinity of their works. Mr. Cramp
stated very concisey the grounds for his APP
pearance as follows:
''We object solely Tor business reasons to
the proximity of these four drinking places
and l have practically nothing to add to the
remonstrances already filed The saloons
are actually at our gates and have resulted in
many accidents and the Generalization of our
men.
There is a good deal OF discussion among
students Of the liquor problem as to whether
an increase of saloons results in an increase
of drunkenness. Mr. Cramps testimony is
very positive on the affirmative side. "When
the number Of saloons was increased in the
neighborhood, he said, Decentralization at
once began. Our experience has proven
that an increase in the number Of saloons is

SIGNIFICANT COMPARISONS.

The Rock ford Monitor says that to get an
intelligent idea Of the vastness of the drink
bill of the United States for 1921 200, ,000-
O00 we make few comparisons. THE net
earnings of all the railroads of the United
States amount to less than one-third of our
drink bill The loss of property by fire in
1891 was only one-ninth of the liquor bill.
The entire expenses of the United States
Government are only about one-half what we
pay for intoxicants The aggregate capital
of all our National banks is about 500, ,000,-
900 or but little more than one-half the
amount squandered on drink each year"

the same diseouragements that confrontthei
brethren in this country. The Welsh have
experimental with the plan OF allowing
liquor TO be sold on Sunday to travellers with
the same result that has been experienced in
this country. Bytacit consent it seemed to
be settled that person who journeyed three
miles was traveller within the meaning of
the law. Latterly nearly all Wales has
seemed to be given to short Sunday excur-

1t is said that the railroad managers OF
Holland have found it impossible to man the
switches with men who can be depended up
on to let liquor alone, and have accordingly
substituted women. Not an accident, it is

IRONCLADS.

The disaster to the Victoria affords
another warning to US, telling what an
unknown factor our national defence,
our mighty ironclad fleet is. In the
days of old, when our line of battle
ships and frigates won us our maritime
supremacy, we were well acquainted
with the wooden walls to which we
trusted; they had been tried again and
again. We knew that as rule, owing
to the discipline, activity and courage of
our sailors, and the seamanship of our
captains, we could always depend upon
one British vessel being match for
two or three of any other country; and
we therefore knew that when we had
more ships than continental nations we
need fear no coalitions against us.
There was no need to guard against
surprises; no danger of torpedoes de-
stroying our finest vessels, or scientific
discoveries neutralizing their efficiency
But now, under the changed conditions
of maritime warfare, we are totally in
the dark as to what the next maritime
engagement may bring about. The
particular virtues of our sailors, which
shone to advantage when fighting in
ships, are likely to be neutralized to q
great extent in monster armoureo
steamers and skilful seamanship, OF
personal courage must be guided anc
governed by science to win the day ii
the future.
Now the few .precedents we have
had of the reliability of ironclads il
not encouraging. About the first was
in 1866, at the battle of LISA. There
an Austrian wooden ship ran into al
Italian ironclad and sank her at once
and the wooden feet beat the iron one
Then there was the Captain in 1870
which upset in slight gale of wind
Later on in the Irish Channel the lrol
Duke ran into the Vanguard, which
also sank in a few minutes, although
the former was going under a reduced
head of steam, there being just time t
save the crew. About the same date a
a German squadron was maneuvrln
off Folkstone, one vessel ran int

PUZZLED MONKEYS.
A Caterpillar Invades Their Quarters
 with Tragic Results.

A Caterpillar Invadss Their Suarters
 with Tragic Results.
 One of the cages in the menagerie was inhabited by an ateles, or prehen- sile-tailed monkey from Central Amer ica, and dog-faced monkey from western Africa Each held the other in supreme contempt. The African unused silently over his own strength and looked scornfully at the spider like arms of his cousin in captivity, while the American didn't think much of monkey who had such short stumpy tail as his companion.
 One day caterpillar, long brown hairy one, crept into the cage. Where 1t had come from no one knew, but there it was treading its quiet way across the cage. The ateles spied 1t, and stopping in his gymnastic exer cises dropped to the ground to investi- gate the newcomer. For short time he looked quizzically and, wonderingly at the woolly object, which went qui- etly along. Then the right hand was thrust out timidly, and as the fingers touched the caterpillar it curled up into hairy ball The monkey jumped back, blinked his eyes as if to be cer- tain of what was what, gibbered and then with the aid of his tail drew him. self up to one of the horizontal bars and looked down wonderingly. The dog-faced monkey looked on from above with apparent scornful uncon- l., T again and again, whenever the cater pillar uncoiled itself and started for some untold goal. At last happy thought struck the ateles. There was a small stick in the cage, and grasping this with both hands the valiant mon- his face, started in to do up" the un- canny intruder. He jabbed down at the unoffeuding visitor several times with a sadly inaccurate aim, hopping back after each attempt and making such comical faces that the unlookers were fairly convulsed with laughter.
 The dog-faced monkey alone was still, silent and circumspect. At last, after many attempts, the stick came down flat on the caterpillar, crushing out its life. The ateles bent forward to seize the defunct crawler, and was just about to make meal of it's poor victim when there dropped from the upper perch, on the spider-legged simian, the dog-faced monkey, who quickly demolished the remains of the caterpillar, while the ateles gave vent to his disappointment in plaintive cries, ugly grimaces and acrobatic perform ances which brought down the house," the spectators of this small tragedy

A RELIC OF RARRARISM.

The strongest argument ever ad. vancek in favor of the abolition oi the grand jury system has just been made part of the legal record of Maricopa county. Passing over the incidents of the outrage of indicting Justice Kincaid, not only without gronnd, but in the face of evidence of his innocence of the offence with which he was charged. we come to the general usele;sne of all grand juries and the absolute and harmful worthlessness of many. There was time when the grand jury was, if not necessary, at least useful part of the legal machin- cry which at best was cumbrous and de- iective. The grand jury was sign of evolution it was supposed to be and real ly was l improvement upon the ordeal by fire or water.
 As remarked before, jurisprudence was defective then. One man knew nearly as much of law and practice az another or rather one man was not much more ignorant than an. other, and the more muItitudi. nous the departments of ltiga- ton the greater likelihood there was that justice would be finally ob- tained.
 Important changes have since oc- cured; lawyers are scientifically trained and the machinery of the law is nicely adjusted. Year by year new rules of practice are introduced and al- together the growth of the system would be satisfactory were it not for what might be described as an excres- cence of it were of recent growth, the grand jury. It is, however, an ex- crescence in appearance and in effect. That department ot the law alone has not progressed and in the nature of things it never can. Though more in- telIigent than their forefathers, the grand jurymen of today are not neces- sarily more shrewd, and are certainly not more thoroughly trained in the weighing of evidence then they were.
 We are pleased to note that in more progressive states, the grand jury sys- tenn has been abandoned and we earn estly trust that it will not survive the passage of Arizona into statehood.
 It would have been blessing to MT. Klncaid and possibly life to him if the excrescence had been removed a year ago.
