MAKING AN IMPRESSION
The Real Reason Why the Young Man
 Didn't Get the Desired Job.

q have applied for a position in a dozen newspaper offices and half that many stores.' said the young man who was standing al the desk No one will listen to me. I can't get q hearing need ~w6rl; very badly. The best l have been able to get is: We have nothing for you, good morning. l am discour- aged"
 And here is what the man behind the desk said. It was not the essence or wisdom, just simple hard sense; a les son learned by rubbing up against a busy world, that has little time for sen timent and none to waste on lazy folks.
 You came in With your hat on, ana you kept it on. You did not tell your name. You didn't even show the man at the desk the courtesy of throwing away the butt of the cigarette you had been smoking. You asked for place in the literary department, which proved that you had made no invesu- gation of the office you desired to enter When questioned you had the most hay idea of the position you desired to fill and you gave the impression that you were looking for a soft job that you were born tired. You really asked for charity, for in no way did you show or attempt to show that you ex- pected to cam any salary that might be paid you. Listen, There are few soft jobs in any profession. Every body has to work and dig and sweat. As the years pass and competition grows keener there 5 less of an oppor- tunity for the lazy man-the dreamer. If you want to work and grow and be somebody, tell the next man so. Tell him tbat you will gladly take humble position, and that the hours and the salary are of small moment, when conr- pared with the opportunity. Make him feel that you are in earnest by being in earnest. Take off your ha- and cut out the cigarette. And if you don't get place She first time. try again and keep on trying. IT the lazy microbe is implanted in you. you had better pick out your room a. the poorhouse. YOI will not be a success even in that insti- tuition: but you will be out Of the way Of busy people. That is all Of CoIrse it hurts a little. The truth is not al- ways pleasant. Some day, after you have landed near the top. and the fel- lows are coming to you for situations, you can tell them this, that you will have learned by years of experience:

IRON SPRINGS
Happenings at Arizona's Popular
 Summer Resort.

Iron Springs, Aug. 13.-(Special cor respondence of the Republican, Friday afternoon while attempting to return from the store to his home, Mr. Wa terhouse wandered away from camp. Searching parties were organized as soon as it was known that he was lost, but he was not found until about eight o'clock Saturday morning. MT. Waterhouse is eighty-five years old, and it was feared that the adven- ture would have Q serious effect on him, owing to his advanced age, but though he was completely exhausted it is thought that he will have recovered in a few days.
 Owing to the efforts of MT. E. F. Young and Mir. A. G. Hulett, the ger man on Tuesday night was an unusu- ally delightful affair. The decorations and favors were attractive and ap- propriate, and the presence of num- Der of Prescott people added much to the dance. Among those attending from Prescott were: Mrs. J. c. Herndon, Miss Florence Herndon, Miss Doris Emmert, MT. Henry Smith, Mir. Will Gregg. Mir. Thomas, Albert Ferne and Chas. Heisler.
 Miss Faye Chamberlin is visiting Miss Jessie Allen this week.
 Mrs. George Christy and Miss Eliz- abeth UHman went to Phoenix Tues day night. Mrs. Christy returned to Iron Springs Sunday and Miss Gilman has gone to California.
 Mrs Thomas, Miss Ora Orme and Miss Doris Orme are visiting Mrs. Will Cox in Jerome.
 MT. F. L. Redewil and Mir. w. M Fickas came up Friday for a few days.
 MT. W. K. James. Mir. Ernest Ben nett, MT. Sylvan Gang, MT. NJ. J. Gal pin, Mr. A. c. Hulett, MT. J. Elliott Walker and Geo. Christy were among the arrivals this week.
 Miss Clara Orme is spending a few days in Phoenix.

A DYING VAeRANT FoRGAvE
No Ennnty for the Rough Boy Who
 Pushed Him Into the Gutter.

Smiling back at a small mob of chil- dren who followed along Second avenue to jeer his rags and still more his for bearance that seemed to them a weak ness, Dennis Callahan. 'vagrant, was pushed of the sidewalk by one of them at First street and fell headfirst % the gutter. His skull was fractured and he died an hour later in Bellevue, pleading to the last that his young as- sailant should not be punished.
 Toyland, Joyland, dear little girl. and bcyland," hummed the wanderer, as he trudged along on his dreary tramp from no place 70 nowhere. Some how the kindly words and simple mel ody of the winters stage lyric aroused no responsive thrill in the hearts of the little folk of whom he sang. Per haps Second avenue was too far iron, toyland, and joy to them was an ab- stract too remote for consideration. Anyway, Callahan's grooming apparent ly moved them to deeper contempt. and the r'Ore persistenty he sang the more vigorously they pushed and pulled and prodded him.

It is just the thing for those who feel run down, nervous tired and worn out and need something to give them new life and new energy. Don't hesitate a minute but go right to MT. Bear and try it on his recommend and guarantee. for PepsikoIa must help and cUre you or the cost will be nothing.

A big fellow. the superfluous one but under the absurd frock coat and the tattered outing shirt there was some thing that kept his hand from his tiny tormentors He tried to placate them with smiles and even offered to tell them a story. They stopped short when he paused. and, beekoning the littlest one to his side, said sheepishly:
 "Oncet l had a little tad like youse. It was @ long time ago-a long time"
 Juvenile metropolitanism was not to be beguiled by any such mawkish sen timentality as that The littlest one said: "Ar-r-r, g'wan." and dodged back.
 Callahan went on. The futile smile faded for a moment as he lurched heavily and stood groping for support, but 1t returned when he recovered his balance and took up the trudge again.
 Yes, I had a little chap like youse- onCet." he murmured over his shoulder at the littlest one. A larger boy grinned and, running head down. showed the wanderer into the gutter. Even as he pitched forward and struck face down on the stone the big fellow was saying: He was a litsle, little tad. just like youse-
 When the house surgeon in Bellevue said the man would die Callahan only smiled again. The foolish look died out of the smile that tirle as he begged the doctors not to let the police arrest the lad who pushed him to his death.

though the cruiser reported
100000 of timber, all the tim
Der on this lard was sold at a
lump sum Of $500 and with either
the densest stupidity or malice
the public examiner asks: 1.-THE
query is: what became of the
100000 feet?" State Auditor
Iverson certifes that cruiser
Mckenzie never made an esti-
mate or report that there was
100000 feet of tim Der on this
land, but that there is an estimate
of 100000 feet on section Is in
the same town. He also certifes
as to what timber was sold, cut
and paid for on this land.
The foregoing are a few of the
first cases in the public examin-
er's report and it is not necessary
to weary the public with citing
any others as they are all alike
throughout the entire list. The
above samples are not exceptional
cases but every item Of Public
Examiner Johnson's report is
shown by the certified statement
of State Auditor Iverson to be
just as false and full of gross
misrepresentation, fact which
can be proved by comparison.

Analysis Of Report.

oUNUC AuulUOI ~. ". 4VSl SOl1
has made a public statement Ger
titled under his hand and official
seal in which he completely re
flutes the allegations made by
public examiner S. T. Johnson
against R. G. Dunn, the republi
can candidate for governor,
charging that when Mr.. Dunn
was state auditor the state was
the loser, owing to Mr.. Dunn
failure to enfore the law relat.
ing to the sale of timber and tim
Der trespass. This statement
has been made under the direct
and personal supervision of the
state auditor, S. G.. Iverson, who
has checked every item and state.
ment and is absolutely correct,
as shown by the books and re.
cords of the stateauditor's office.
It shows that the statements
made by the public examiner are
false and untrue and that his
assumptions and conclusions
are unwarranted and misleading
in every particular. It also
shows that the public examiner
is entirely ignorant of the timber
business in general and the
states tim Der business in par.
ticular as is shown by the false
construction he places upon
terms in common use in the lum,
Der industry. For instance, he
pretends to believe, and would
have the public understand that
the term ''new cutting" com
monty used by timber cruisers
to designate timber which has
never been cut, means that such
timber has been cut or partially
cut. He also pretends to believe
and attempts to convey the i'm
preston, that when a state cruis-
er, after making an examination
of state timber land, reports
"cutting on south and east. y
that this means that the timber
on the state land has been cut
on the east and south, when as a
fact such a report means what it
says, namely, that tim Der on the
lands adjoining the state lands on
the east and south, had been cut.
1t is stated by employees in the
state auditors office that the
meanings IF these terms were ex-
planned to the public examiners
assistants but that they disre-
garded all information and ex-
PLANTATION.
COMPARISON IS INVITED.
Any citizen possessed of ordi-
nary intelligence is invited to
take the certified statement of
State Auditor S. G.. Iverson
printed below and compare it,
item by item. with the published
report Of the public examiner,
and by so doing can satisfy him
self Of the utter falsity of the
statements made by the public
examiner.
For the benefit of citizens who
have not the time to make a
complete comparison as sug-
gested, attention is drawn to a
few cases Illustrative of the false
hood and misrepresentation of
the public examiners report.
The items can be identified in the
state auditors certified state
ment and in the public exami-
ner's report by the description
of the land which precedes each
item.
