A Don't for
 the Young Men

Vim. Southern, Jr., editor, of the Jackson Examiner, at Independence, Mo-, who by | the way, is one ot the ablest country editors in the state, says
 Young man, if you are thinking about trying to get a deputyship in a political off, flee, DON'T. It may be that you might get an appointment if you tried and your friends should help. It may be that a salary of sIO0 or SI25 a month may look big to you It may be that you figure that with such a salary you will be able to save money. It may be that you have taken an in- terest in the political game and are facinated by it. These things have turned the heads of many young men. You are probably not able to un- derstand why a political posi- ton is not a good thing for you. We know just how you feel about the matter. Jackson county is full of fruitful les sons on this subject. Take a look over the past history, not the remote past. but the recent past. say twelve years, and consider the situation of those men who have held the offices :and deputyships. If you can sharpen the vision a little take a look al the men who have held office for one term and are scattered along the edge of the path of those who still hold. If your vision can go still further, see the ! skeletons of tine men who were once young, and arel now old and have done nothing else but hold deputyships. Oh, yes, you may be an exception. You may be able to revise the..laws of politics and sue ceed where others fail. But it is worth considering"

BEVERIDGE WILL FIGHT
Indiana Senator May Stop Arizona
 Statehood Bill in Senate.

Senator Beveridge will again lead the fight in the senate against the admission of Arizona and New Mexico. This information comes to Phoenix in l a private letter received from Attor- pey N c Gillhain, who IS now in Kan sas City, Mo. in the interests of the Arizona Gold and Copper Hill Min ing company.
 Gillhsm is a close observer of polit- ical events and during years resi- dence in Phoenix impressed those who knew him as having more than the average ability to dig down into the inwsrdness of matters political.
 h addition to his statement that Beveridge is still the arch-enemy of the territories. Attorney Gillham makes the pleasing statement that Arizona will have the support in con. gress of Representative WP Borland of Kansas City In his letter, pub lished in the Democrat, Gillhsm says in part:
 "The one difficulty to overcome in bringing about statehood is not in the lower house sof congress, not in the executive, for Roosevelt's message rec ommends admission and Taft has de- clsred himself in favor of admission, but opposition will be met with in the senate. That august body of the leg islstive branch of our government has suoh keen eye for the interests" but is always highly embarrassed and even fighty whenever it catches al glimpse of the "common people.
