Conflicting Testimony.

While we wish il understood that The Republican does not take the position that comets have no tails. We are inclined to let the jury have for what it is worth'-as the courts say when they are in doubt about proffered evidence and are in doubt as to which attorney they should sit upon and suppress-we will len it go for what it is worth this observation from Professor Carl E. Myers of Bal loon Farm. Frankfort. New York. who has gained considerable distinction as an aeronaut: The comet has no tail" Professor Myers thus explains:
 "A comets tail is that portion of d atmosphere or attenuated sub stance surrounding d comets nucleus made visible by the suns rays con- verged by the comets mass acting as a lens to project concentrated sum- shine in line with the shadow of the comets nucleus, or denser central portion. It is not d tail bat DOT tion of a vaporous sphere revealed"

Let There Be Haste.

The one thing to be kept in mind at today's hotel meeting is the neCes- si,y of speed--speed in agreeing upon d program. speed in securing the architectural plans and specifications, And speed in construction. IL would be easy to consume thirty days now in discussion of this or that cost and plan Of construction, and the time thus taken would make q big hole in next winter-what is needed above all else is to have the hotel ready for next winters business.
 Ii there were no emergency, and it were a question of building q hotel tn meet every possible requirement.. it would be wise to take the matter up leisurely. The city needs a great tourist hotel. to be sure: and such a structure we are sure to have in the near future But such q hotel for would take at least a year to con- struct. Time being of pressing inn portance, it is obviously wise to adopt only such q course as will assure a completed hotel by the late autumn of this year. This does not imply any necessity of being contented with something that is not first-class On the contrary. the hotel must be abso- lutely modern. and the best hotel in the southwest. But large ambitions as 10 cost, if carried out. will take too much time. It seems probable that q maximum cost Of s250,O00 will most nearly meet the situation. every thing considered. A hotel of the best modern construction for that sum of money will be d structure the city will take pride in. On the other hand. not to have such d hotel by the beginning Of next winter would probably injure the town to the ex- tent of a million dollars.
 The meeting of Thursday thor oughly demonstrated that the local spirit is for the best possible hotel at the earliest possible moment To- days meeting should see all details completed

The Practical Side.

Of the several Massachusetts com munities which have just resumed the licensing of the sale of liquor the city of Worcester is conspicuous because of its strong stand hitherto against the license system. Pro- hibition was abandoned at the recent election, because the people had reached the conclusion that the sale Of intoxicants could not he stopped not because the sentiment of the citi- Zens in favor of temperance had changed. During the twenty-f four months in which the "no-license" plan was in force. it was found that the shipments of intoxicants into the city comprised: beer. more than two millions of gallons; whisky. more than one hundred thousand gallons These figures. abundantly verified. did not include shipments by underground showing. the people decided that it was more practical to return to the license system.
 It is this question of practical en- forcement of prohibition which di- vides the advocates Of temperance into two groups. Contrary to the be- lief of the jealous advocates of the anti-saloon propa ganda. the great ma = jority of the people who vote in fa- vor of q system Of high license and strict regulation and against pro- hibition are quite as much opposed to the liquor evil as the most radical anti-salOon leaguer can be. With this class it is simply a matter Of choosing the least of two evils-the licensed and regulated saloon as against the unrestrained and illicit sale of intoXicants

4 Hint to the Democratic Brethren.

-
 Apparently on account of the in- ability Of the democratic brethren to agree among themselves az To the course that should be pursued at Washington. Chairman DiIlon's pro- posed expedition in behalf of state hood seems to be in the vocative. This is regrettable. too, for il seems obvious that d delegation of demo crats from Arizona could do good at the senate wing of the capitol just nOw-provided they followed a prac- tical policy. This policy should be up of democratic senators for state hOOd--any kind of bill that will admit the territories-and the en- couragement of democratic resolve in the senate 10 put the brakes on ether things until statehood is as sured. On the other hand. d demo- cratic pilgrimage from this territory with Chairman Diilons ideas of combat" in mind against some state hood bill or other. would do Iaore harm than good.
 If democratic senators could be brought to adopt statehood as their measure of first preference. things would begin 10 get lively in the sen ate. For be it known. both wings of the republican membership are very much disposed to flirt with the democratic senators just now. Brother Aldrich needs them, and the insur- gents need them. There is fine opportunity for some bargains to be struck, wherefrom Arizona and New Mexico could emerge victorious. IL really does not seem necessary to emphasize the present facts for the consideration of our democratic friends in the territory The repellant attitude some of them have shown toward the senate bill. for example reminds us of the drowning young lady who refused to be rescued be- cause the rescuing gentleman had not been properly vouched for
 Meantime. while the democratic statesmen locally are marking time and manifesting uncertainty of mind Governor Sloan will proceed to Washington in a few days and do his share with the republican side

Beginning a New Reign.

With the burial of King Edward be said to have begun. Henceforth the young man will stand in the more or less mythical fierce light that beats upon a throne and the world will begin trying to take his measure.
 During the short period which has elapsed since he succeeded to the throne all sorts of gossip purporting to draw his portrait has been cabled Co the United States. We have been told that he is dull, and that he is exceptionally bright; that he is lazy, and a glutton for work; that he is out Of sympathy with popular gov ernment, and he will valiantly stand for the democratic constitution; that he is kingly and masterful. and will be bossed by his wife; that he frets for the companionship of the plebeian wife from whom his heirship 10 the throne detached him, and he is de- voted to his queen; that he takes no interest in state affairs, and he in sists on reports in detail from his ministers: that he detests Americans and Germans, and that he loves them to show that the agile correspondents have done their best to supply the worlds demand for information about the new ruler of Great Britain, and that nobody knows much about him.
 It is the unfortunate lot of the or dinary king to be little understood. notwithstanding the traditional fierce light aforesaid; for the light doesn't penetrate far enough for the public to see. If King George should write brilliant state paper, his hostile critics would say that somebody else was the author. If he should make himself a force in promoting the prestige and power of his empire. most of the credit would go to his ininisters--for a long time. And if he should prove to be as stupid as some Of the Georges, his weaknesses would be carefully hidden by the ca pablo government" which is re- sponsible to the people. Even King Edward, after a reign of ten years.

BOAClAH.
Within the garden of Abdailah's heart

Within the garden of Abdailah's heart There grew a thistle bare. Amid the choicest flowers of the mart And spice trees set in careful rows
 apart It bloOmed there And he. half petulant and half in scorn To find within his heart of hearts a
 thorn. Stopped as we stoop to pluck the weed
 we see And spake full carelessly: This must
 not be" And straightway he essayed to root the
 whole From out the flowered garden of his
 soul And failed as when some dream 'bound
 sleeper tries To lift the divan whereupon he lies And sweats and twists in agony: so he Strove all in vain to wrench the thistle
 free. And then from out his soul Abdallah
 went Wrapped in the mantle of his discon-
 tent. Into the walks of men and learned
 their ways. And toiled for them through many
 changeless days, And wept their tears until he half for
 got His garden with it's perfumes and its
 blot, Until he half forgot the hidden smart That burned within the garden of his
 heart. But after many seasons. on q day When all the world seemed pitiless and
 hard, Abdallah turned from out the beaten
 way And came again 10 where his flowers The dreaming lotus. and the poppy
 gay. And censor swinging hard. And To where once the thistle raised
 its head. No bitter thistle grew but. in it's stead. There bloomed 4 crimson rose with up-
 turned face. And from its lips a perfume filled the
 place.

ARMSTRONG
REvERSES

finally discovered that an alien
cannot become a citizen by merely
taking out his first papers and de-
claring his intention Of forswear.
ing his foreign allegiance.
But he has waited to discover
this until after practically all Of
the contractors on city work have
been compelled to shut down op
erati0ns for the winter.
Yes. George has really discov'
cred this fact at last. for yester.
day afternoon he issued an order
to the effect that from now ON and
henceforth no foreign born person
who has not taken out his final
naturalization papers shall be EN-
ployed on city work. This is d
direct reversal of former order Of
the commissioner to the effect
that any alien who had taken out
his first papers should be consid
cred q citizen.

PAYS men

what wage they are to draw until
pay day comes around. and finding
their pay checks short of the
amount they suppose they have
earned, they enter a protest. Then
they are calmly told that they have
worked part of the time on work
for which only 1925 was being
paid.
And, just to add insult to injury,
the Hassam people are not hiring
their men as are other contractors
of the city, but are requiring each
man put to work to pay 81 for his
job.
HOW IT Is DONE.
But, how is the company doing
this, you ask?
Easiest thing in the world. Here
Is the system:
Men for the Indiana work are
hired only through the Tierney
Employment agency at PIT Wash
ington street. The man who goes
to the Hassam company and asks
for a job has no chance in the
world unless he has a ticket show
ing him to be sent by the Tierney
agency.
Then they are set to work on
the street grade, and work all over
the street, sometimes in the mid
die of the street and sometimes at
the sides. And this is the little
joker whereby the Hassam people
are getting away with their 1928
game, for it is only the work at
the side of the streets which is
city work. according to the Has
sam contention, while that in the
center of the street is private
work, paid for by the Washington
Water Power people.
A bunch of men was sent out by
the Tierney agency during the last
couple of days of November, and
set to work. Their agency ticket
distinctly calls for them to receive
pay at the rate of So per day. The
Press has one of these tickets in
it's possession.
Being set to work, these men
worked varying hours, some days
working eight hours, some IL, some
five hours, and on one day at least
only three. At the end of nine
days several of the men were laid
off, and every one of them found
their pay checks short. When a
kick was made they were told that
two classes of work were being
| done on the street and that while
the city work was paid at the rate
of So per day, that done between
the tracks Of the Washington Wa.
ter Power company was paid for
at only $2.25.
Commissioner Argall took up the
matter with Manager d. G. Mon.
roe of the Hassam company, and
it was explained to him that only
one man had made complaint
and that the company was paying
a lesser rate Of wages on the
Washington Water Power contract
than on the city work.
The commissioner insisted, how
ever, that the man who had com
planned was entitled to pay at the
full rate of wages, and was tolt
to send the man to the office ant
he would be paid the alleged diff
ference of SAB between thu
amount he had received and tn,
amount which would be due at 5:

no money. Instead he received /;
