GO 1T, ARIZONA!
Call Bills Bluff and Make Him
Show His Hand.

Arizona goes to the bat with
the recall on all servants of the
people, Notwithstanding the en-
deavor to put the judiciary above
any responsibility to the people
Indications point to a spasm of
Virtue" on the part of Taft and
the U. S. Senate that will respect
the constitution if the people of
Arizona pass it, which they are
very likely to do. Arizona called
the bluff of Roosevelt when he
told her that she absolutely must
vote in favor of being admitted
with New Mexico as one state, or
stay out for fifty years She OBJ
solutely refused to be bluffed
The very best thing that could
happen Arizona would be for Taft
to kick her in the face, and the
U. S. Senate to jump on her, and
a lot of U. S. Senators bite the
dust who did the jumping.
Go to it, Arizona, old gal, and
demand your rights and maintain
them. Don't allow the republican
has-beens and corporation sena-
tors to bluff you down for a min
ute. Stay with them till skating
is good on the Yuma river, and

WHAT'S THE NATTER?

The unionists OF Los Angeles
are fighting for the simple right
to have an equal voice with en-
ployers in the disposition OF their
labor. They are going hungry
to defend this righteous principle
They are being jailed without
warrant, beaten by brutal police
men and railroaded to prison for
contempt. Heard any Los An
geles ministers denouncing the
brutalities practiced upon the
wage earners who love justice
enough to die in its defense If
necessary. Heard any prayers
being offered up in behalf of the
men who are making a gallant
fight against greed and oppres-
sion? Any collections taken up
in Los Angeles churches to feed
the women and children who get
Just as hungry in Los Angeles as
the heather do in China or In

Mighty palatial churches in
Los Angeles. Lofty spires. gild-

ligion that seems TO be coming
from such churches does not, ap-
parently, go very far towards al
leviating the distress forced upon
the wage earners of the city OF
Los Angeles by the greed and
rapacity of the men who occupy

Advertisers Appreciate His Verse,
Even if Publishers Do Not.
From the New York Sun.
1T is passingg strange" said the prac-
teal poet as he ran his hand through
where his hair used TO be. that I never
see volume OF poetry among the six
best sellers. It is positively discouraging,
for poetry is always good 10 the eye II
not 10 the ear. and those who read II are
generally Of the softer gender.
And this isn't because there IS any
scarcity OF publishers, for even I have
been approached on more than one occa-
sion by philanthropic gentlemen who
would bring out volume OF my gems
for the consideration Of a few hundred
dollars. But somehow I couldn't see II
in that light and there must be a few
thousand more who take that view OF IL;
hence the dearth OF books OF verse In
the publishers lists.

But the advertising game was the

FOR fear the trout would hear him. I
rfdiculed the idea and said: Let US fish
away and talk as loudly as We can for
while. then let us FISH and hold our
tongues for another while. and see II
there is any difference IN the rising OF
the trout 20 the fly" There was not the
slightest difference.
I Among all the anglers OF my acquaint-
ance I can only call TO mind one who
held the idea that sound above water
frightened fish under H. The firing OF
big guns from forts has been alluded 70.
but generally IN these cases a ball goes
hopping along. or a shell bursts and
causes a movement IN the water. From
the fort AT Kinsale they fire toward the
harbor's mouth. as I have seen many
times. when In our yacht at anchor in
the harbor. We were told that the 10

deserted by fish. but in other parts OF
the harbor the fishing was not affected.

In the same stream / saw a trout lying
close 20 the bank, and getting above him.
I tore a few bits OF white paper from ar

at once rose and took piece. This was
repeated three times when the paper
floated directly over him, but when they
passed him on either side he took no
notice. II a hook had been in one it
would apparently have been as good as
