EDITOR GUARDIAN: For long
time the merchants of this valley
have been paying 25 cents per
dozen for eggs and selling them
at the same price. This could
have been continued throughout
the summer but for the action of
some of the Stafford and Pima mer
chants, who have recently quoted
eggs TO some of the largest buyers
at 20 cents, and reduced the buy,
ing price to Is 2-3. We were re
ceiving 25 cents up to that time
and then were notified by our
largest patrons that they bad been
offered eggs at 20 cents. This has
compelled us to reduce eggs to 20
cents, although ifalI the merchants
would stand together 25 cents can
be restored and we think it ought
to be.

that ifpractical will settle the whole

on all other properties except min

his message of approval Governor
Klbbey points to the fact that
while the assessment of producing
mines in Arizona in 1906 was only
$40, 100000 the new law will raise
their assessment to Sl4,O00,000 or

Among the several good laws
passed by the Twenty. fourth legis'
lative assembly, the law which
makes it imperative for mining
corporations to invest fifty per
cent of the money received through
the sale of mining stock, in the
development of the mining prop
critics, is a good one. This will
put an end TO the thievlng CON-
mission business, which is often as
much as rs per cent of the receipts
of the stock sold. The Arizona
mining interests will thus be made

of thousands of dollars annually

Stafford bears the exclusive dis
tinction of being the only town in
the territory where the newspaper
fraternity has to buy tickets to
plays put on in their opera house.
OF course it costs money to build
and operate good play house and
the management should be run on
the same business principles of
any other enterprise, but 1t is rare
ly ever the case that play house
gives more to newspaper than 1t
gets directly or indirectly from its
home paper. The GUARDIAN would
like to have it borne in mind that
it costs money to pay printers, buy
paper, stock and generally finance

newspaper space is as valuable as

THE CRITICS
AND CRITICISM
Discussed by the Reverend Charles
Stelzle, the Trade Union Min
lister.

Some criticism is fair and legiti-
mate. Most of us need to be hit
hard, sometimes, principally be-
cause we get the notion that we
have Il monopoly of wisdom. But
criticism should be constructive,
rather than destructive. True
criticism does not necessarily mean
pointing out of weakness. 1t
may he the discovery of virtue.
But most criticism is of the other
KIND. 1t is jlSt plain, simple
''knocking." Criticism CT another
generally acts as a boomerang upon
the unjust critic, because the critic
IS most apt to point out in another
the failing which is peculiarly his
own.
One of the most cowardly forms
of criticism is that which sees
weakness in woman, but over
looks the same thing in a man.
What is criticised in the 'goose, -
is good ground for criticism in the
"gander." There is no separate
Standards of criticism as between
the sexes. A mans wife is usually
his best and truest critic. She
may be merciless in telling him
his fnilings, but she will be most
loyal in helping him overcome
them
As Il general proposition, it is
better to crlticise yourself than to
wait until another fellow gets a
chance to criticise you. And be
merciless to yourself, is you expect
mercy from another.

Organized labor has scored an

S. w. Hager, the defeated can

feated candidate for commissioner

monstrated to organized labor that
they were its bitter opponents and
their defeat is largely due to the
active fight conducted against
them by the trade uniouists of the
state.

who are not SO platonic in their
