The Danger of Being Alive

Under the above heading the Southwestern World gives the following advice.
 Drink water and get typhoid fever. Drink milk and get tuber- culosis. Drink whiskey and get the jimjams. Eat soup and get Bright's disease. Eat meat and encourage apoplexy. Eat oys- ters and acquire toxaemia. Eat vegetables and weaken the sys- tenn. Eat desert and take the pa resis. Smoke cigarettes and die early. Smoke cigars and get ca tarrh. Drink coffee and obtain nervous prostration. Drink wine and get the gout In order that one be entirely healthy he must eat nothing, smoke nothing, and even before breathing one should make sure that the air has been properly sterilized."

The government is in urgent need of teachers for its Indian schools. The munihcent salary of $500 a year is offered to those who are appointed after passing a strenuous civil service exami- nation. There are many vacan
 cies in the service and examina- tions are held all over the United States to fill these positions. Uncle Sam should offer better inducements than $500 a year to attract the best material to teach in his schools. Teaching the young idea how to shoot should be worth as much as lay ing bricks for horse stable and the latter is worth S6.5O per eight hour working day and wages and half for overtime.

A Ton Raise.

An American colored gentle man, by some hocopocus had
 got into a poker game in a Lon don club. His wis a wis, an Eng lishman, picked up three kings and pair of duces and said: "I raise the pot one pound." The colcred gentlemen picked up four aces. His eyes almost popped from his head. He said, stam- meringly. "I don't know much about de system of weights in dis heah country, but I'se agwine to raise you a ton!''-Ex.

Il. B. No. 4, introduced by MT. Anderson, of Yavapai county, is an act to establish and maintain manual training schools in all school districts now having 75O children of school age, said school to be connected with the public school, and tor the maintainance of the schools it provides that a tax of --- mills on each dollar of the assessed value of real and personal property in the territory shall be levied upon and collected.
 According to the last school census there are only seven dis tricts in the territory that would be able to take advantage of this, yet the citizens of all the other school districts would be taxed for the benefit of those seven. 1t reads to us like another case of taxation without representation. If the larger cities are desirious ofhaving manufacturing schools make them pay for their main tainance. It dosen't look just that a majority of the taxpayers should be made to divy up for the benefit of a few.
 We believe we speak the senti- ments of every citizen in Navajo county when we say those who dance should pay the fiddler.

Large Fleet Escorts Remains Of Naval

JUDGES LONG SENTENCE.
wIlI Bear Reading. Until II is Fully
Understood,


The following long sentence, re-
lating to the domain of corporation
property, is from an address recently
delivered by Judge Peter s. Grosscup
OF Chicago before the Ohio State Bar
Association:
when the deeper judgment of the
Nation is reached; when the vested in
terests of this country come to see that
their greatest security lies In having
all about them neighboring vested in
terests--a proprietorshlp that reaches
out and out until, carrying reasonable
security, it is within the reach of all;
when the men who toll for wages, with
out abating their appreciation Of their
present protective agencies, come to
actually wish for an individual share
In the country's property; when the
country wakes up to the consciousness
that benevoleDce is not the only thing
that is human. that Just dealing Is not
the only thing that Is human; but that
individual ambition to get on In life is
human also; that the wish for a ca
reer Is human; that Individual indie.
pendence is human; that some share In
the worlds inheritance from nature Is
human; when the spirit that inspired
the pre.emption and homestead laws
, peopleizing the domain that fell to our
fathers--revives in us, dealing. as we
have to do, with the larger and more
difficult domain that has fallen to us;
when the public mind and heart have
been lighted up, ways will ne found,
abundant ways, to infuse into this new
nrOpprty domain pf the RenuhliC even
though embodies In corporate form,
individuality that alone gives to prop
erty It's fullest utility as an agency for
good, and alone saves to private prop
erty its place as one of the republican
! institutions of the country"

NO CLASSES IN AMERICA.
Attempt to Import Cheap Labor
Frausht With Great Danger.

Attempt to Import Cheap Labor
Frausht With Great Danger.
\ The equality that is the ideal Of
American politics is not an equality
OF possession. character or ability.
Men are not created equal in those
things and no amount of legislation
can make them 80. But every Ameri-
can citizen ought to have, as near as
possible. an equal opportunity to make
the most of what there is in him, for
the benefit of himself and the nation,
and every American citizen ought to
be equal before the laws.
And yet there are men that claim
that Chinese laborers should be
brought into this country. to do the
work that cannot be done by Ameri-
can citizens, and they would thus es.
tablish permanently in this country a
class OF inferior laborers that are not
on an equality with other residents of
the great Republic.
Such an experiment is a dangerous
one, and It should not be tried.
1t is far better that the fruit Of the
California orchards should rot upon
the ground rather than introduce la
borers that are willing to accept
wages that are less than what is nec-
essary to support self-respecting
American citizen.
Experience has shown In eastern
states that even the cheapest of Eu-
ropean laborers bring with them the
germs of ambition and self respect,
or quickly acquire them in this at
mosphere Of freedom. Even the white
contract laborer that is brought to this
country IN defiance Of the law
quickly learns to suit his demands to
the conditions he sees about him and
every attempt to bring up CON
tented laboring class on pauper
wages has been failure.
The claim that the Chinaman will
work for less wages than any Ameri-
can will do is beng urged as a reason
why reasonable number" should be
admitted to the United States. This
claim is the strongest possible reason
why the present policy of strict exclu.
sion should be continued.-Pueblo

WHY DO AMERICANS SUCCEED,

Why do we lead all the nations of
the earth In prosperity, happiness and
Individual contentpent?
Why are we, rs n people, regarded al
an invincible power Of impregnable
strength?
And why do we compel tho admira-
tion of the whole world-at times
grudgingly given. but given, anyhow i?
1t Is because we are free and inde-
cndent In the truest meaning OF the
lords.
We think :or ourselves, act for our
selves. govern ourselves more than the
people of any other nation.
We are absolutely self-relant, a ma
tional trait that renders us independ-
ent of all other nations. Independence
Is the keynote of our supremacy.
And this is the reason why up-to-
date grocers and storekeepers appreci-
ate the fact that Americans OF both
sexes have strong wills of their own,
and do not need interested advice.
Every up-to-date grocer knows per-
fectly well that for more than quar-
ter of century Lion Coffee has been
the leading package coffee and a well
come drink at the tables of millions of
American homes.
He knows-and everybody else knows
that 1t has always kept its old
friends and rteadily made new ones
Good, reliable. trustworthy grocers
willingly acknowledge this, and all in
dependent housekeepers will Insist up
on having Lion Coffee and no other no
matter what kind of an argument gro
GERS If obstinate principles may ad-
vance.
Americans want the best. and they
get tie best and purest in Lion Coffee.
