SMALLER SALARY FOR
ASSISTANT Secretary

Fifty dollars instead Of $S4 3 month
will be the salary Of the new assistant
secretary of the Board OF Charities and
Corrections. This reduction Of 80 was
made necessary by Z realization that
many duties imposed upon the Beard
by the last Legislature requires the
employment of more help in the once
than has previously been carried on
the rolls.
The election OF the assistant score
tary was deferred Friday evening, until
May ). by which time II il believed that
all Of the many applicants who are mot

fair that the applicants should have
due notice that the position they sought
would not pay more than $50.

All talk of non-partisanship in
choosing candidates for membership
in the constitutional convention can
now stop. The meeting of the ter
ritOrial democratic committee at
Prescott last Saturday decided that
so far as the democrats were con-
cerned they would proceed 10 the
selection Of delegates to the consti-
tutional convention accourding to
party custom. This leaves no other
alternative. 1t is well that this
should be so. By this method one
or the other OF the two dominant
parties in Arizona viii be responsible
for the constitution which will be
submitted to the people for their
ratification. A constitution prepared
by delegates elected on non-partisan
tickets-equally divided among re
publicans and democrats would be
without the sponsorship of any party.
1t is better that both parties chose
full list of candidates in the com
ing election, thus giving the voter
a wider range of choice when he
comes TO cast his ballot. for the
day is past when a full rarty vote
may be counted for every candidate
on a ticket. Besides this method
will be on incentive to stimulate
each party in its efofrts to choose
the best men in the nominating con-
ventions. No one will desire to see
craftsmanship displayed in the con
stitutional convention further than
adherence to the principles of gov
eminent for which these parties
stand

Col Bryan is having a strenuous
time these days in his home state
of Nebraska. He is fighting for the
initiative and referendum method Of
government in Nebraska. Two years
ago the democratic convention in
that state declared for the initiative
and referendum, but the legislature
which was democratic refused to pro-
vide for It. Then an effort was made
by Mr. Bryan to have the governor
to call a special session Of the legis-
lature to do what had been promised
in the platform. This was refused
by the governor. Now Mr.. Bryan de-
ciares that this refusal to provide
the method of direct legislation
makes 1t necessary to force the is
sue Of prohibition into the state cam
paign. If Mr. Bryan forces this pro
hibition into the state campaign it
viii greatly endanger democratic sue
cess in that state this fall.

a question for the woman who con-
scientiously wants to make a home
to ponder over.
Margaret Fuller Ossoli says. "A
house is no home unless 1t contains
food and fire for the mind as well
as for the body" and this sentence
seems to give the answer in a nut
shell.
We all know houses where there Is
food and fire for the body. We eat
our meals in them, sleep there. pass
in and out. but they are little more
than places of shelter. hostelries, in
a word
But what a difference in the at
mosphere Of the real home. the place
where, in addition to food and fire
for the body, are food and fire for
the mind! Men and women grow in
a home. They merely exist in

NEEDLESS HARNESS.
eIindsrs and Tight cheekrsins Make
Horses Miserable.


Horses Miserable.
Horses are placing mankind daily
under everlasting obligations to
them, says an official of the HUI
name society, but how cruelty and
thoughtlessly are they repaid by
those who are most indebted to
them. A horse is a noble animal
patient, kind hearted, self sacrifc-
ing, willing to work till he dies in
his tracks, accomplishing, a lover
of kind treatment and who is will
ing to work a whole lifetime with
no other compensation than his bed
and board.
OF the many things which make
the daily life of a horse miserable
two are binders and the tightcheck-
rein, the worst parts Of a horses
harness. Very many people be-
lieve that they are part and parcel
Of a horse and that he would not be
a horse without them.
The majority Of the horses could
readily dispense with binders, and
all could if they had never been in
vented. Binders we're first used by
nobleman in England to hide a
defect on his horses head and later
we're found excellent locations for
the displaying Of his coat of arms.
A horses head was never intend
ed for binders, for his eyes are so
set in his head that he can see be-
hind him without turning his head,
and of course the binders deprive
him Of seeing the very things he
should sec for his own safety as
well as his drivers. A horses eye
is beautiful object, All it is a
shame to cover it.
Whenever / see a man driving a
horse without bli~aors | always feel
like stopping him and shaking
hands with him. A horses head is
the best part Of him and should
have on it as little harness as pos
sible.
another instrument Of torture to
horse is the tight -checkrein. 1t
