The Strawpile

This solution also blights the wheat
somewhat more than iron sulpEate,
but did not appear 10 materially at
feet the yield.AThe arsenite is extreme
, iy poisonous. and much care should be
exercised in it's use. For example IL
should not be used lp,n nearly ND
ture hay lands or upon nearly mature
grain fields the straw Of which is to
be fed to stock Stock should not be
turned upon pasture lands where 1t has
been used until sufficient rain has fall
en- to wash it off the forage.
II the thistles are found only in
small patches it will be wise to buy
compressed air hand sprayer; one that
can be carried upon a shoulder strap
This hand apparatus should he fitted
with about three foot compression
hose and three foot extension roa t"
sllcw one to readily swing the no.:lcs
eyer wide arm. The nozzles should
lie of such nature as to throw c
rather wide fiaring funnel shaped
spray. The air pressure in the tank
should be kept sufficiently high to al
low the liquid to be thrown in a fine,
forciful spray. Large drops will blight
the grain and grass.
The following solutions are recon-
mended: Iron sulphate at the rate OF
100 pounds to each 50 gallons Of wa
ter This solution can. be used gener-
ally upon grain fields without the
slightest fear of injury to the yield or
Of stock poisoning. The thistles will be
! bighted so as to prevent blossom
ing.
Copper sulphate at the rate Of IL to
Is pounds for each 81 gallons.
Cnr1mon salt at the rate Of 80 to
100 pounds to each SO gallons of wa
ter.
Sodium arsenite at the rate OF ono
and one-half to two pounds for each
tifty-two gallons of water.
The salt and sodium arsenite solu-
tons give best results in killing this
ties. They will die back to the ground
and will only be able to sprout up
few inches before fall blowing.
Salt and sodium arsenite are much
stronger herbicides than either iron
sulphate or copper sulphate and each
farmer should gain some personal ex-
perience with the use of them before
applying to large areas of grain. In
most places the Canada thistle is yet
grouped in large, single patches and
it is of more Importance that the this
ties should be destroyed than that
tulI crop of wheat or other grain or
grasses should be grown. Most farm
ers will therefore find it advisable to
use stronger solutions than is recon-
mended for general work in grain
fields. On such patches, if iron sui
phate is used, second or third appli-
cation of the solution five or six days
after the first treatment proves very
effective and may be advisable. If
more than fifty-two gallons of any of
the solutions are used upon an acre
of grain the grain will be liable to be
injured.
(Do not forget that the sodium ar
semitic is q strong poison, and tho
cheap and effective as a weed de-
stroyer, should be used only with good
judgment and due caution.)

POLITICIANS OF DIFFERENT
BRANDS.
(Des Moines News)


There are politicians of different
brands Roosevelt is the greatest
politician in America. The world has
seen few. if any politicians of his size
and value. He has worked the game
of politics for all it is worth. He has
used his peculiar ability in the inter-
ests of the people. He has organized
and disorganized. He has built and
destroyed. He has fought the enemy
as only a skilled politician can.
Bryan is also politician. He is a
politician of dimensions. He has played
the game for all it is worth.
Johnson of Minnesota, is politi-

four hours per day, when necessary.

Douglas Men Say BiSbee Has
Not Been Doing All
the Work,

The Douglas members of t1e Doug

which set out 10 secure a good road
between this city and Bisbee, resent
the comment in an article in the Bis
bee Review of recent issue, in which
it was sintimated that the Bisbee con-
tingent had been doing all of the work
and that it would seem to be up to
the Douglas members to bear some
Of the burden.
The Douglas members, AID there are
a number of them, many of whom were
first in launching the project, say that
the club is doing the work as body
and that this city is just as deeply
interested in the work of building the
road as far as it has been built as the
city of Bisbee Douglas is putting up
her share of the money.
The new road is now completed IL
miles out of Bisbee, to Forrest, which
is about 9 miles distant from Doug
las. At this point the new road joins
the old road and which is in pretty
good condition. There will be a con-
siderable work done later In getting
a better road across the ravine near
the smelters, but this viii not be un-
dertaken until later.

Why, bless you. 1t is done out of
sheer goodness Of heart and thought
ful philanthropy. Anyone might
have guessed that. Lawson makes
lit certain. He says that leading
bankers have sought to secure the
whole or a portion OF the Yukon
stocks. but the Guggenheims would
not part with their property. Was ii
because If they sold to the banAeI .
they would get less than the money
they had already expended, while on
1.-THE contrary they could get their
money and a handsome Increment
besides by disposing of stock to the
public. No. sir; they were anxious to
give the widows and orphans a
chance. Lawson says that the
group have been convinced that just
at this time. when the people are
filed with distrust of all things, IT
will be OF inestimable value to the
whole investment and corporation
structure to spread through the land
into the hands of thousands of small
investors fraction Of the stock of
their enterprise at less than one-half
of its actual worth" Which means
that to restore financial confidence
throughout the country the Guggen-
helms are so patriotic as TO give
away a dollar for fifty cents. This
is extremely probable. Next Lawson
says that the money lost to the
group by selling" this stock will be
many times more than made up by
the increase in value OF the stocks of
the other corporations in the group"
Credat Judaeus pella. In plain Eng
lish. this is all preposterous flap
doodle AS for awson's part in the
game, we surmise that he has an
option on the 100000 shares at about

badly; Lawson wants money and no
toriety; they will share the spoils.
II this campaign of advertisement
and buncombe succeeds, Lawson
promises to startle the world shorty
with a $50 1000, 900 scheme that will be
a wonder. We venture to anticipate
that it will be the Consolidated Cop
per company or Copper Mines com
pany. as last christened, a group that
will include the Nevada Consolidated
and the Utah Copper, which are two
great copper mines, together with the
Cumberland & Ely, which is fairly
good mine, and a number of smaller
nearly worthless properties. and out
of this watered stock Lawson and his
harlequins will make golden wine,
that is, if a miracle can be perform

A BRIGHT FUTURE
FOR BORDER CITY.
Operations of Col. Randolph

The fact that in the recent sale OF
the controlling interest in the First
National Bank of Douglas, Col. Epes

the entire southwest, has acquired a
large block of stock, coupled with the
fact also that the Southern Pacific has

up and take notice. knowing that there
Is great future for the Smelter City
to be seen at any rae. ty a number
of keen. shrewd, successful business
men of Arizona, who are accustomed
to handle big deals.
The facts in regard to the sale of the
George Mitchell block of stock in the
First National bank have been in pos
session of the Dispatch since Mr..
Mitchell was there 10 consummate nte
deal.
The change in the control Of the
business interests of the bank will
take place on May /. The men who
have purchased the Mitchell interest in
the institution are Ihomas Pollock of
Flagstaff, Ariz., the well known bank
er who owns banks at Flagstaff, Will
Jams and Kingman, Ariz., and who is
also one of the largest sheep men in
the territory.
Another is B. A. Packard, the wen
known capitalist who has large cattle
Interests, and who has been closely as
ISOLATED with W. @. Greene many
years.
The third IS Col. Epes Randolph, the
head of the Hartman lines in the
I southwest, and a man who is famous
for having done much for the upbuild-
ing of Arizona through his railroad con-
nections, both in this territory and in
the republic of Mexico.
B. A. Packard is-the man slated to
occupy the Office of president of the
bank, but the names of the other Off
cials are not yet made known.
However, the news interest in the
fact that the controlling interest in the
Douglas bank has come into new
hands is completely orersaadowed by
interest in the item that Col Randolph
is investing in the future of Douglas,
and also the item that his-railroad has

ESTATE ACTIVE
WITH NEW ADDITIONS
Suburbs to Douglas Go On
the Market.

Business may be a little quiet in
Douglas but never before have the
real estate men been more active than
now, when several new additions are
being thrown on the market. The
latest is Smiley Heights, for which
Douglas and Sparks are agents with
A. W. Flickinger, manager.
Smiley Heights lies northeast OF
Douglas and is plated so that
Twelfth, Thirteenth and Fourteenth
streets win traverse it if continued.
The addition is 900 feet in a north
easterly direction from Sportsman S
park and is therefore close to the
park car line. The promoters or the
addition point out the fact that Smil-
ey Heights is high and "dry" and
claim that it is destined to become a
favorite residential suburb. The sale
is announced to begin next Saturday
ar o'clock. Stress Is laid on the
facts that only white people will be
sold lots in this addition and that no
reservations will be made.

who can use it and make 1t a perma- nent possession of the race. A goou translator renders such a service, Tn different way. Now, Longfellow was scholar. a great reader, student ol many litertures, and he knew what hao been said by wise men. lie IS one oi our most conspicuous examples or DOT rowing without credit. He was not an originator. though he knew good un- usad material wh en he saw it, as he eX- emplffied in "Hiawatha." But most oi all he did his work in putting into ga silv understood and quotable 10TH the good things with which scholars were familiar, but which the coihiioi people had never heard. It was soou work. a necessary work. That the pest things escaped goes without saylhe. The best things are not capaole translation into the vernacular or every day speech, which is quite olHereh. matter from simple speech.
 If is in Longfellow's writing that most people are familiar with the inc, "Art is long, and time is feetins. bi. as long ago as Hippocrates the sap,e had been uttered. Goethe put the same thing into German:
 .Ach. Gott! die Kunst ist lang,
 JJnd kurz ist unser I.eben'
 Which Bayard Taylor turned neatly in'o the English:
 "Ah, God, but art is long,
 And life, alas, is feeting.
 Chaucer centuries before had recoroeo the thought in his fourteenth century English: , +o .rrbe lyfe so short the craft so long to
 lerne." When Longfellow, in his prelude to HIS 'yoices of the Night" wrote: , Look. then, into thine heart and wr1te, He was using almost the words or DIT Philip Sidney the knightly hero or gut phen: l.. +h,,
 heart and write"
 Byron wrote the line:
 Here's a heart for every fate. Anticipating the familiar househoiu phrase of our American poet:
 With heart for any fate.
 And surely Longfellow added nothing hut metrical form-simple, as his always is-to the admonition of Cervantes' "Neyer look for birds of this year In the nests of the last" when he wrote; .,There are no birds in last years nests.
 Another form of borrowing Is to imitate the form and put the turn of phrase 10 a different use, as for instance, Pope oio when he wrote:
 '.vice is monster of so frightful mien' As to be hated needs but to bel seen :. For Dryden had said. with fQuai cpl
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-08-09

grammatic force and more morality of context:
 For truth has such face and such a men,
 As to be hated needs only to be seen."
 How can the best truths but be often observed and recorded2 And how shall We always know to whom to give credit? :? When an author is accused of borrowing he can quite commonly put forward the defense that the man from whom he Is ], alleged to have stolen was himself hold ing stolen property For there are many phrases, not to mention sentences and plots, that are in dispute. As an instance
 note the pregnant words, Know thyself' Pope, perhaps, had more than any one else l 70 do with making the thought familiar. though he could not refrain from giving 1t an added meaning:
 Know myself, presume not God to scan;
 The proper study of mankind is man. We need not suppose when we find it in chaucer's writing:
 Full wise is he that can himselven knowe"
 even though it is centuries old, that 1t IS original there. Diogenes Laertius, more than thousand years earlier, said that Thales was it's author. Cervantes used II Tn different form, as if it were com-
 mon property in his day: Make 1t tiny D"'iiSSS tO huOW lHySelI, WHICH lS tHC most difficult thing in the world" But Plutarch says Plato originated 1t, and IL | IS also ascribed to Pythagoras, Chilo. Cleo fuius, Bias, Socrates and others, including Phemone, mythical poetess of the time te1ore Homer, and Juvenal takes the cred i, It from all human authors and says it de scended from heaven.
 Even as Chaucer took the speech of the common people and made literature of it, and thus gave his own dialect perpetuity 1 as language; even as Mark Twain has performed the American vernacular form | or the English language, the most impor- tant service that it mas ever received, SD Shakespeare made us all his debtors by seizing material of all kinds wherever ne selzing material of all kinds wherever ne and incidents, but by his habitual preserv-
 iEg and competing of proverbs and home ly wisdom In the old days of Publius syrus, shortly after the beginning or the Christian era, there was the custom or employing a branch of green foliage as Winners sign, and he says: You nreo Lot hang up the ivy branch over the wine that we sell'-a. custom that had Deconie so well known by Shakespeare's time tnas he simply said, Good wine needs ho | bush"
 | It is the choice phrases and the thoughts that they bear that are so free-
 ly tossed about, and for good reason:
 What could be more likely than tnat
