The erudite board of supervisors of Maricopa county has made a very i'm portant geographical discovery. The democratic hold-over member, who is at present largely engaged in keeping the growing young Phoenix within it's baby hide, was the first to determine that the town of Phoenix was net q part of Marieopa county; and there fore the residents of Phoenix are not entitled to the benefits of taxation, notwithstanding the fact that these same unfortunate individuals pay al- most half of the debts contracted by the hereinbefore mentioned honorable gentlemen. We are inclined to believe that MT. Norton has 8 very old copy of Cranes Atlas, to which he has made very diligent reference in drawing his lines. He should have a new atlas. The city council was simply com pelled by the board of supervisors to agree to pay the county one-half the expense of caring for contagious cases. The council had its choice either to build another hospital or accept the terms of the county-thus admitting, though under protest, that the taXpay- CTS of the city of Phoenix are not resi- dents of the county and are not en- titled to the benefits of taxation. It was, perhaps, the best that could be done in an emergency, but there should be some legal way of preventing our( eXcommunication.

THE BYRON CULT IS NEEDED.

HE B1RON CULI IS NEEDED.
 The new cult of Byron has made its !. appearance i'll congress, and curiously enough an episode in itself furnishes strong proof of the necessity that ex- ists for furbishing up the popular ap- preciatiOn of poet too great to be neg lected, much less forgotten. It was during the pending discussion in the house upon the army bill, a debate which has been as conspicuous fer the general ability Of the disputants as for the versatility Of argument and illus tration with which it has been gar nished There has been, by the way. more poetry quoted in both the house and the senate since the Paris treaty and the army bill have been before those bodies, than had been heard i'll congress for a dozen years before. MT. | Maxwell of Nebraska, in speaking up on the army bill, brought in the quo- tation from Byron which we allude to. This is the way the Congressional Rec ord has the passage:
 Byron, in writing after the battle of Waterloo, in commenting Washington and the republic, said:
 Can tyrants but by tyrants conquered
 be.
 .And freedom find no champion and
 no child
 Such as Columbia saw when she
 Sprang forth Pallas armed but un-
 Or must such minds be nourished in
 the wild
 Deep in the unpruned forest, midst the
 roar
 Of cataracts,
 Where nature smiled on infant
 Washington;
 Has earth no more
 Such seed within her breast or Europe no such shore?
 Now, without dwelling upon the fact that Byron was here writing of the Caesars, and of tyranny in general, not of the battle of Waterloo, this canto of the poem having appeared three years after that battle was fought, either MT. Maxwell, CT the man who edits matter for the Congressional Record, shows a remarkable ignorance of the Spenser- ian construction of the stanzas of that noble poem tChilde Harold's Pilgrim age," and proves that the cult of By ron has, indeed, grown very rusty and | needs attention. We rearrange the | stanza to show how barbarously it has been mutilated by MT. Maxwell or the editor of the Record, who must adjust the responsibility between them: Ia fc bI1t hv And Freedom find no champion and no
 child
 Such as Columbia saw arise when she Sprung forth Pallas, armed but un-(
 dehled? (l Or must such minds be nourished h
 the wild,
 Deep in the unpruned forest. midst
 the roar
 1 ca ta "a etS " ere .I.llrsziing Mature
 smiled
 On infant Washington? Has earth
 no more
 Such seeds within her breast, or Eu-
 rope no such shore?
 In alluding to this matter we are glad, notwithstanding the lapse we mention, to bear grateful testimony to the general correctness of the Con Record. When we consider the prodigious mass of matter that is dumped into that publication by the two houses of congress, including quo -ations from every branch of literature from the classics to Mark Twain and Artemus Ward, and note that it is sell dom that a slip is made, it is evident that not merely exemplary care, but high quality of scholarship is used in the daily report of congress si0nal debates, whuch must necessarily pc done with great haste.

Father honor" Jno. 1926 Like most
men of today the disciples had mis-
conception of honor, and the manner
of its attainment Jesus led them to
see that honor is not position nor pre-
terment nor applause of men. 1t is not
gift to be bestowed, but virtue TO
be recognized. 1t is brought TO light in
service and here men see, acknowledge
and reward it, Honor is to be seen not
in acquiring position but in nobly
filling it. The road is open TO all who
will serve. Dewey was hOnored not in
his appointment, nor by recent demon
STATIONS, nor that valued gift of con-
gress-but by his heroic service. God
owns and honOrs service. Men may
fail to recognize worth, but God never
fails. A thousand times better to be
owned and rewarded of God than OF
men.

Conscious of their peril if taken to
Michigan To answer TO the charge of
numbering Night Officer John Craig at
Sturgls, Rudy RAIDER and John Blough
have perpetrated a silly falsehood which
is one of the most startling facts in the
net of evidence which Is gradually be-
ing woven around them, fastening upon
them the charge of murder. Realizing
that the horse stolen by the Sturgis
murderers was found near Honey willie
the next morning and that the crime "
stealing J Ohm CARRIERS horse is fastened
upon them, Rader and Blough have
concocted fabrication so transparent
as To be humorous in spite of their
sorry predicament.
They have admitted the theft of the
CARRIER horse, but undertook an abb IN
the Sturgis murder case, which has
fallen already for want of strength in
the way of substantiating facts to sus-
tain its fllmsy weight.
they state that on the night 10 ques
ton they hired livery rig al Goshen
''from that liverymsn northeast of the
square" and drove TO CARRIERS and
stole the horse and returned to Goshen
toward the next morning.
| Deputy Sheriff Chatten, of Goshen,
when spprised of this fact made care
full and patient investigation. He went
to the livery barn of +. r. Lacy, the one
described and found that there was
nothing in the story offered by the
thieves. But Deputy Chatter was not
ready to give up the matter without
giving the thieves chance to prove
their story. So he has investigated the
the other barns and finds that Blough
and RAIDER hired no livery rig in Goshen
that night.
The belief is growing that they were
concerned in the Sturgis murder. 1t is
known that they were there the day of
the murder and their attempt at divert
ing the belief as to their whereabouts
was certainly not purposeless. They
must want to serve term at Michigan
City and let the Sturgis matter die out
of memory.
Sheriff Marshall has been in constant
communication with the Sturgis and
Goshen authorities and is pretty well
satisfied that they have the right theory

In the morning the pastor preached
his first sermon for the conference year,
taking as a theme the "Rebuilding of

miah was the leading spirit in the
work, but all the people took part, in
GLIDING priests, rulers, tradesmen and
those of every occupation and calling,
and as q result of their united efforts
the work was completed. So with this
church during the conference year-it
will accomplish the work God has for
1t to do if all are united and the people
have mind to work.
The evening theme was Morality
based on the text, "Whst Lack | Yet."
We should place high estimate upon
morality. Jesus did. When he looked
upon the rich young ruler who asked
the question Of the text and heard him
say respecting the commands of God,
"All these have l kept from my youth

BuIIhEhters in Spain.

A Madrid paper has interviewed a
toreador, or bull fighter, and >shows
what an important parsonage he is,
During the past year he took part in
65 fights and killed 1913 bulls. His net
profit was $685. 900, and the only injuries
he received were bruise on the foot
and a rather bad wound in the leg
These toreadors are generally from the
lower classes and uneducated, but all
Spaniards are picturesque and take
readily to wearing fine clothes and
posing as cavaliers. The risks they
take are great, but the rewards are
tremendous. They are courted by all
classes, they live like princes, and such
is their popularity that the newspapers
are careful to give them nothing but
praise, for fear of mourning the en-.
nifty of the people, who fairly idolize
these butchers.

shy to be thus caught and too spry to
be seized by the quick hands of the sail

took the briggs course, and disappeared,
but before nightfall they came back and
passed the night on the main-top.
