The Two Policies.

The republican position with ref erence to all of the so-called pro gressive" legislation-the position talk en by republicans with practical unanimity in every quarter of the territory-is in favor of a safe, sim pie, constitution which will enable the people to make, through their leg islature, such laws as they may want For example, a constitution which will empower the legislature to extend the franchise; which will empower the legislature to prohibit the sale or manufacture of intoxicating liquor which will empower the legislature to provide for direct legislation, and provide for reference of bills to the people-and so on.
 Sucn a constitution will enable the people of the state to try on any legislation or any scheme of legis- lation that they think they want, and -a very essential feature-it will en- able the people at any time to repeal any legislation or scheme of legis- lation which has been found objec- tionable. We hear great deal, these days. about the necessity of rule by the majority" The republican policy provides precisely for the rule of the majority. The democratic scheme or. rather, the scheme of certain dem ocratic politicians-provides for inn bedding in the constitution the var ious features to which we have re- ferred, so that if the majority should find them objectionable it would be practically impossible to get rid or them.
 As between the two policies, the sensible citizen will not hesitate to choose the republican policy.
Arizona republican., 1910-07-29

the memory of the oldest inhabitant runneth not to the contrary. the Hon. George Washington Peter Hunt has been a member of the Arizona legis- lature, and of course one of the die tators of legislation. What law has he failed to pass which the people would have passed on a referendum? What law has he failed to introduce which would have gone before the people on an initiative petition?
 If he was recreant as a controlling member of the legislature, what right have we to suppose that his loud advocacy of direct legislation as the only escape from democratic legisla- lures is an advocacy prompted soley by high minded regard for 'the people"
 The inference is plain that these noisy politicians are prompted by that time serving motive that leads them to bend the pregnant hinges of the knee that thrift may follow fawning" With sails set to catch every passing breeze, from whatever quarter it may come, and hoping to ride into power again, they are for the initiative and referendum or any other ism" that they think may catch the votes of the minimizing and unwary. They are the dearest lovers of the people"-before an election.

OUR MISSIONARIES ABROAD.

The critics of foreign missions are rleased to assert that but a small amount of money invested reaches those for whose benefit IS glVeh' says former Vice-President FalrDanks in The Outlook. They do not agree as to the percentage which 1alis short of its purpose. l have some times thought those who most freely make such charges are persons Who have the least investment In the cause. My observation has been thdt no trust funds-and there IS none more sacred-were ever more faith fullv administered than those which arc given for the support of our foreign missions. We do not or course. put our mission work upon commercial basis: our contributions are not intended to yield current ln- terest in kind The return which comes from investment in the mis- sionary service is infinitely higher and better and richer than all this.
 The suggestion that the funds appro- priated are not expended with either integrity or good judgment Is un- supported by the facts. Those viho are engaged in the missionary move ment abroad are as faithful to trust and duty as any one to be found in any other calling anywhere. The missionaries, as a general rule, con- serve their resources with intelligent fidelity and make the most of their opportunities: they are not given to luxurious or extravagant living. and are obliged to practice economy in the most rigid way. They content themselves frequently with the barest necessities and give up all thought of the comforts which they would enjoy at home. They know what self -abnegation means. for they prac- tice it in greater or less degree throughout their service. They must

It has been some hundreds Of years since the immortal Shakespeare ask ed. whats in a name?" The courts of the city of Cleveland, state of Ohio. have before them the problem of answering this question. A saloon keeper. one John D. Schnapps, had the temerity-and no doubt in the spirit of a ribald jolle-to hang sign in front of his establishment reading: John Ds. Place" A zealous friend of the great and only person who is known wherever the English language is spoken as John D mas sought by injunction proceedings to prevent the saloonkeeper from using the objectionable sign. Cleveland. as our readers of course know, is the home of the worlds only John D. The drink purveyor has perpetrated a moor sort of joke, but the prop lem for the courts is no less diffl- cult on that account.
