THE BIBLE WAS MUCH USED
There Was No Baby Chair in the
House and It Served q
Good Purpose.

A minister of one of the leading congre-
cations of this city was recently making a
call on one of the prominent members of
his flock and was greeted at the door by the
fveyear-old daughter Of the house, who was
doing the honors as hostess in the absence
of her mother, relates the Philadelphia
Press. Spying wellworn family Bible near
at hand, the minister commented on the
fact that there must be a good father in the
house, which contained proof of having used
the Bible to so great an extent.
oh, yes, said the child, papa has US on
che Bible three times day"
.'lndeed?,' replied the parson. "How edi-
flying. And, pray, what times does your
good father call upon this grand volumne? %
always at meal times" answered the
radiant daughter. "You know, we never
had baby chair in the house, so pa just sits
the Bible on a dining-room chair and that
makes it just high enough for US children
Ny baby brother Jim sat on it this morning.
We all had our turn at it."

As to statehood it was fought for the same purpose and more bitter ly by the leading republicans and the administration and when the right of the territories became SO clear. it could no longer be fought in the open the administrator sought to minimize the increase in representation by fore ing joint statehood. President Roose- welt in his letter says: If on one great issue the democrats do not mean what they say it is hardly safe to trust them on any other issue"
 Fair minded men should be willing to be judged by the rule they use in | judging others and if the democrats should not be trusted on any issue. be- cause they left the money plank out of their present platform. since they left that plank out of their present platform.

If Geo. 1T. Maxwell and the repub- lican political managers in Cochise county know anything it ought to be that Mark Smith, the democratic can didate for congress, is filling dates in Arizona fixed by the territoritl central committee, of which Mir. E. E. Ellin- wood, of Prescott, is chairman. MT. Cassidy and MT. Maxwell ought to know that any arrangement for joint debate between Mir. Smith and any body would have to be arranged through MT. Ellinwood, who has en- tire control of the time of Mir. Smith from now until the Sth day of No vember.
 It is a presumptious piece of i'm pudence on the part of MT. Maxwell who has no interest in Arizona and who came into Arizona with the avow ed purpose of talking to the people of Arizona along non-partisan lines to try to attract attention by a pretend ed challenge to Mark Smith. the dem ocratic candidate for congress. and Mark Smith would be a rank sucker to pay any attention to him.
 Should Mark Smith give his at tention to a challenge to debate from 8Ir Maxwell there are one thousand men in Arizona who have a better right to challenge Smith than has this man Maxwell. IL would be easy for the Cassidy's and Clevelands and Oth- CT county chairmen in Arizona to monopolize the time of the democrat ic candidate with joint debate with
