the politics of New York and
New England.
1t appears that they are not
attracted by the models offer
ed them in localities where
politics has until the past
been regarded as a private
business engaging the peren-
NAL interest of only about FIVE
per cent of the grown men
with occasional spectacular
reactions from some of the
rest.
Arlzonans are anxious that
politics in the Southwest shall
not have a status like that of
the mining business, the shoe
industry or the coasting trade.
Probably they think that by
refusing to permit politics to
be treated as a trade they will
make impossible the rise of a
monopoly of political power.
And perhaps it seems to
these clever Southwesterners
that if they can circumvent
the political trust they will
have the power in their own
hands sufficient to deal with
all other conspiracies and
monopolies. Los Angeles

Dreams and the Awakening.

Apply the proper test and su-
perstition yields. 1t was a GUS
tom among Canadian Indians,
when they dreamed of receiving
a favor from another to apply
to him for it's fulfllment, and
whenever possible the conditions
of the dream were complied with.
A chief one morning came to
Sir William johnson, then gov.
ernor, and told him that he had
dreamed that his excellency had
made him a present of the suit of
regimentals which he wore.
The governor Immediately a.
greed to make the present asked
for, but as the chief was about
to leave told him that he also
had had a dream, to the effect
that the chief had given him a
certain large tract of land of his.
The chief was silent a moment.
"Well, you shall have it," he
then said, but, if you please, Sir
William, we will not dream any
more. st. Paul Dispatch.

1T DOESN'T REQUIRE

e democratic suggestion
for the average republi-
can to favor reform in the pre-
sent system of taxation in
New Mexico. We all know
that the systems has its de-
fects, and we all know, too,
that republicans are much
better qualified than democrats
are to remedy those defects.
For proof of the assertion the
reader is respectfully referred
to the record of financial de-
bauchery made by the last
democratic administration
Socorro Chieftain.
AS the Republicans have
had absolute control of our
finances for fourteen years, if
they are qualified to handle
the problem they should have
shown it by this time. All that
Is required is to make people
pay each their proportionate
share according to their pro-
perty holdings, and conduct
the government honestly and
economically.
Down in Valencia county a
nonpartizan organization has
shown that about 28 per cent
of the population pay the
taxes. This condition with a
small variation, exists in all
the strongly Republican
counties in the territory, while
the Democratic counties show
a much higher percentage. II
this counts for anything it
certainly shows that the Dem
ocrats are best qualified to
handle the problem. Farm

a RIZONA, SEEMS TO

iC democracy.

A majority of the fifty-two
delegates to the constitutional
convention were elected be-
cause they stood pledged to
the principle that direct pri-
maries, the initiave, the refer
endum and recall must be
wrought into the fundamental
law of the new State.
Wise men from the East
have told the Arizonans that
such matters ought not to be
put into a State constitution,
that they should be left lying
about loose, as materials for
future partisan controversy.
But the people of Arizona
have rejected this advice, have
decided to so settle their fund
amental law in the beginning
of their Statehood that politics
in the new commonwealth will
have to be a public affair.

Arizona have, no doubt, cast

ut is ALREADY SAFE
III to predict that there will

Il
be a great many chang
es in Congress as a result OF
the elections in November.
Washington, used to changes,
accustomed to seeing the pro-
cession of lawmakers and
ofice-holders pass in a con-
stantly changing stream, looks
on complacently at the hub
bub throughout the country
and feels little concern. Here
there are no elections to vex;
no candidates to solicit votes
and influence; no red fire and
torchlight parades to enthuse
the populace. The disfranchis-
ed inhabitants of the nation S
Capital hammer away at their
tasks while other communities
select the men who shall
make the laws. Sometimes
there is grumbling and a
complaining because of the
lack of the franchise, but on
the whole the Washingtonian
cares little about it and draws
satisfaction from his privilege
of taking toll from all who
pass his door.
Congressman have been
dropping in by ones and twos
of late, and while some are
looking for homes during the
coming session, others are
merely aiming to get ready
for their final exodus after the
short session has ended. The
autumn days have come, and
the fall moving is about over.
School has opened, to the
grief of the small boys. The
vacationists have got back
and the shutters are being
taken from windows of houses
which have been deserted all
summer. In short, the sad
autumn season is again with
us, the persimmon is mellow
ing, oysters are in season, and
the plaintive call of the turkey
echoes over the Virginia hills
as the date of Thanksgiving
approaches. And yet the town
is dull and it will continue to
be so until December brings
Congress together again.

twenty years.
