\ WHOLESOME CONDITION.

Throughout the United states a po-
litcal readJustment II underway The
old vessels have ceased TO answer the
purpose for which they were Intend
ed and they are oeing broken up and
thrown back into the melting pot.
From the crucible Of public opinion
in time there will be evolved two po-
Iitical parties that will truly repre-
Gent the thought Of today. What
these parties viii be called matters
but little The names republican and
democratic may still be used but II
they are those names will not have
the old time significance. One will
b. the progressive party and the other
the conservative.
natural feature Of the political
situation existing today is the general
tendency Of people to vote with little
regard for the party names that have
long been in use People are look
Ing 70 men and 10 the methods and
principles they represent rather than
tc meaningless party designations. In
Maine. a rOck-ribbed republican state.
the people elected a democratic gov
ernor and several democratic con-
gressmen. In New York Col. Roose-
welt and his followers have turned the
republican party into a progressive
organization and the ex-president is
appealing TO citizens to support his
ticket regardless Of past party affili-
stions That the Roosevelt crowd
will win seems assured. They should
win because they stand for clean
politics, for progress and for effici-
ency.
In Oregon too a decided shake-up ia
underway. There IL well defined
revolt against machine politics and
this revolt Is now directed particu-
lsriy against the election of Jay
Bowerman, the assembly candidate

II is a good sign too that such q
shske-up as this is on. There is nc

Uquated forms and creeds; nor II
there any civic virtue in following po
iitical lines that have long lost theil

THE Clifton Cattle Association,
which was organized in Clifton this
week for the purpose of protecting
the interests of the cattlemen of this
section, is one of the best things that
has happened for the cattlemen in a
number of years. The ERA has COM
men.ed upon the matter many times
and encouraged the cattlemen to
organize, as it was the only way that
they could,receive consideration from
the forest reserve department of the
United States. For this one reason
alone they should have been organized
long ago, but there are other good
reasons why they should be working
together, instead of each individual
looking after himself and rejoicing
when his neighbor gets the worst of
it. By combining their influence and
interests they have perfected an
organization which represents a
massive sum of money-one of our
largest industries. In the future,
whenever there is a controversy be-
tween the government and cattle in
terests there will be some head to the
organization and it will not be neces-
sary to travel all over the country
and consume so much time for mat
tiers that should require nothing more
than few days to adjust. There is
yet more suggestions to the cattle
men. In looking over the list of
members it will be discovered that
there are yet number of cattlemen
whodo not belong. Every one of them
should be in and take an interest in
the association, as their interests lie
together and if they desire to get all
that is coming to them they should
assist in making this association a
success. At times there will be con-
siderable necessary expense and as
every effort of the association will be
for the benefit of the cattle owner,
they should all represent with their
prorata. The association will also
form acloser relationship between the
forest rangers and the cattlemen.

Pool Tournament.

During the past several days a pool
tournament has been going on at the
Lou Morris parlors on Chase creek.
Eight of the best players in camp
have entered the contest, which is
open to all who desire to enter before
the games are advanced too far. The
prizes consist of first and second
money-S1O and So cash. Each con-
testant must play the same number
of games, or in other words each must
play one game with every player in
the contest. Some of the players are
rated at 125 balls, some at 100 and
none at less than 80, hence it will be
seen that each player has a fair
chance to win.
In addition to the tournament the
management of the parlors has de.
cided to give coupons for every game
that is played. by patrons of the
house, which entities them to a
chance of being presented with d
handsome cue at the end of each
month.

Cold Storage MARKET to Remain Under
Old Management.

During the past month it has been
rumored on the streets, and also
stated in the ERA, that after the
first day of February the Clifton
meat and cold storage market would
be under new management and owned
by the Arizona Copper company.
The ERA Is now informed that the
market has not been taken over by
the company and that it will con-
tinue' TO be under the old manage
ment, Jud Webster still being the
owner of the market. The present
force in the market will be retained,
with Charley Davidson in charge of
the shop. The market will continue
to run its own delivery wagon and
will also endeavor to supply as good
beef and choice cuts ascan be secured.

AmnSPmentS.

It has been quite few years since
old man Geronimo sailed forth on
his native heath about Clifton, yet
even without his unhealthful encour-
agement, Clifton is moving onward
and upward.
In by gone days we have had in our
canyons and on the surrounding pre-
cipitous cliff, entertainments which
pleased large audiences throughout
the land, so it is rather disappoint-
ment to local people, because they
cannot open their new Armory
Theater with Arizona.
Nevertheless, "The Lion and The
Mouse" will without doubt please
every mothers son when this COM
pany presents their splendid drama
on the Clifton Stage, the first real
show local folks have attended this
season at home.
1t might be well to state, The
Armory Theater has much true class
in its construction, being a structure
with drill room 1O0x64 with a stage
30X24 in dimension, combined with
six rooms in the fore part of the
building which will De devoted tc
club purposes.
w. ]. Byan really opened the
building when he delivered his mas
terful sci mon "The Prince of Peace, y
yet the armory was at that time in
an unfinished state, so he really layed
the corner stone.
Cliftonites are most enthusiastic
over the bright lights in theatredom
who will present their productions
here, such Successes as The Lion and
The Mouse, King Dodo and The
Alaskan will with some other plays,
| be seen in Clifton this winter.
Toward the end of March Mr.
Murray will give our home folks q
pleasant entertainment in the line
of minstrel show composed entirely
-. of local talent.
Mr.. Murray spent number oil
years as a minstrel man, so we be-
lieve his judgment will have the show
quite ripe before it is presented
The minstrel show will be given as Z
benefit for the base ball team of 1910
and we believe our village will turI
out to witness a few stunts which
will be well pleasing.
Much talk regarding the building
of a new baseball park and grand
stand has as yet led to very little &C
cOmplishment, still Clifton will stand
solid for this amusement park, but
the movement is only in the begin
ming. Last year our nine had some
excellent stars, Bob Seaman from
the Hudson river league, "Cut" Call
the Virginia Lacquer, "Tefty' Nc
Tween from the Pittsburg national:
and Newark league, Bull" McCleary
and Bud Kelly, both Pennsylvania
state college grabbers, and Riley
Brock, Williams, Fehrman, Mason
Ward, Sullivan and Rigby, local pro.
ducts who played good ball last year
Last summer the national game
was well attended by Clifton people
throughout the entire playing season.
yet we regret to say Morenci took
five of the nine games played in the
series, however Clifton may well
smile broadly when we just remember
how the two teams compared as road
sters, Morenci lost all and Clifton
summed up an average of 667 after
playing Bisbee, Ell Paso, Douglas and
Moreuci on foreign fields.
Manager Riley has some agile
youths of college and university
fame on his lineup, in other words
the success on the diamond is wei
assured if Clifton will continue tC
stand hand in hand with the nine.
