to Ganup, Holbrook, Winslow, Flag

The whole of Gallup will be here and
the bigger part of HOlbrook. All the
railroad BOYS of Winslow are counting
on coming. and the following Coconino
county officials are coming: Sheriff
Harry Henderson, County Commission
er Ralph Camcrson, Representative

Donahue, Hon. Samuel Klous, and a
large number of other representative
citizens OF Flagstaff. Jim Jones and
number of old-timers are coming
from Williams, but the Arizona fair
will detract from the New Mexico fair

LESSON FROM EUROPE

When the Journal quoted this morning from the Den
Times the quotation of that paper from the autobi.
ography of Andrew w White, it omitted the comment of
the Times The Citizen herewith gives the article in
full:
Andrew D. White, whose experience in many lands
has been great probably that Of any citizen of the
country his autobiography given this interesting
result of his knowledge of conditions in many lands:
las a result of observation and reflection during
long e which has touched public and measures in
wide variety woui desire for my country three things
above all others to supplement existing American
civilizations From Great Britain her administration Of
criminal Justice from Germany, her theater, and from
any European country Russia Spain and Turkey its
government of cities"
1t is rather humiliatsg that any country in Europe
excepting Russia Spain Turkey could teach the
United States the first principles of success in the con
troll of city governments. But there is little doubt that In
this Dr. White speaks the literal truth There are var
ious causes for this situation chief among which is the
degree municipal ownership which obtains in the coun
tries of the better managed cities.
impossible to leave to the city governments the
power to enormously private corporations through
the granting franchises and not expect this power to
work corruption in all the political and civic life of the
community Let America learn to control publicly all
public services large part of the municipal malad-
ministration will disappear.
