neglect these ills. The attacks may
pass off for time but return with
greater intensity. If there are symp-
toms of dropsy-puffy swellings be-
low the eyes, bloating of limbs and
ankles, or any part of the body, don't
delay minute. Begin taking Doan's

ment until the Kidneys are well,
when your old time health and vigor
will return. Cures in Wa-Keeney

A bill win be introduced In the
next Colorado legislature providing
that any surgeon who shall perform
an operation for appendicitis and aft
erward be unable to prove that the
appendix was in diseased condition,
shall be guilty of malpractice and
punishable under the penal code.
The bill is being fathered by a
number of medical practitioners
throughout Colorado, who hold the
theory that the appendix has funct-
ion to perform in the human body
and that the operations for it's re-
moval are in many cases only due to
the surgeons love of his science and

Occasionally there is man who has
minded his own business so assiduous-
" that he has a little time left on
his hands. Then it is all right to go
out on the street and assist a neigh
bor But the trouble is that when
you do start out to help the aforesaid
neighbor you are apt to overstay the
limit and when you get back you are
behind with your own affairs and it
takes long time to catch up. Your
neighbor may be letting his hydrant
run contrary to the ordinance, but
you are wasting time by sitting on
the fence and trying to count the gal
Ions. You think your merchant is
is making mistakes in the business,
but be patient. He will find out in
due time and you can retain his
friendship. Always remember the
game with SO little competition.-Os-

OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
SATURDAY, Dec. 8. 1910

Here is a little axiom saw hang
ing in the office of a prosperous man
the other day: 1.-THE reason men
who mind their own business succeed
Is because they have so little COM
petition" Orators have delivered
lectures four hours long and didn't
say half as much. Men have read
through whole libraries and never
sound such a jewel of advice. Did
you ever notice how little trouble
and worry you have when you work
hard and minding your own business?
Did you ever notice how satisfactory
the profits were on such occasions?

EnRland's oldest newspaper, the
London Gazette, which has been for
over $50 years In the hands of mem
bers of the Harrison family, Is to
have new printers and publishers.
This announcement draws attention to
perhaps the most curious publication
in existence, a publication which is at
leas unique in the journalistic world
The following singular features
characterize the Gazette: Besides be-
ing the oldest newspaper of the pres
emit day, it has the smallest circula-
ton of any. Its shape and its type are
obsolete. And, strange as it may ap-
pear, it has no editor or editorial staff.
Since its birth in the days of the
great plague the Gazette has been
the property of the government.
Originally a patent was granted to
some individual, giving him author
ity to produce the Gazette, which he
published in his own way, retained
the proceeds, but paid to the govern
ment a stipulated sum every year for
the privilege. Discounting slight
notifications, the same style of con-
tract has existed up to the present
day.
Now, however, the government has
made a radical change. Instead of re-
ceiving from the printers a fixed
sum for the privilege of printing the
Gazette and allowing them to pocket
the proceeds of the advertisements,
they zave decide to reverse the pro-
cess and pay the printers for produc-
ing the paper. This change was inc
vitable, for the paper is reputed to
yield a profit of 800, 200 a year from
the proceeds of the official advertise
ments published in its columns.
Mr.. Harrison is proud of the fact
that over the long course of years du-
ring which his firms name has been
associated with the Gazette no official
secret sent to it for publication has
ever leaked out prematurely, although
his employees number several thou
sand.
Besides printing all the official an
nouncements and advertisements I'M
der acts of parliament, it also pulish-
es all state events. For example,
the accession of the king was announc-
ed formally by special supplement
of the Gazette.-London Letter in

to state that the main reason is be-

FOREIGN TITLES FOR AMERICANS

A curious question has been sub- mitted to the state department re- gently to which it has given but half an answer, says the Boston Evening Transcript An American citizen has asked if his acceptance of a title of nobility would work forfeiture of his citizenship. The response of the de- partment, in effect, is that while such accepance would not work eXpatria- tion,' it would be "a circumstance to be considered in determining whether or not an American citizen had eX- patriated himself" Such a comment is as far as the department can go, for obviously it has not the powers necessary to determine the matter on which the constitution itself is not as explicit as is desirable It is equally plain that the department is right in holding that the acceptance of a title of nobility is contrary to ''the spirit of her institutions"
 The common impression is that the constitution in so many words forbids an American citizen to take a foreign title of nobility. and imposes on him severe penalty for so doing, where as this is all our organic law has to say on the subject:
 ''No title of nobility shall be grant ed by the United States; and no per son holding any office of profit or trust under them shall, without the

Mir. Roosevelt and Direct Legislation.


 A violent, but silly effort is being made to invoke the name of Colonel Roosevelt in support of the doctrine of the initiative, the referendum and the recall. Some ignoramus in an afternoon paper yesterday afternoon found in The Outlook what he be- lieved to be an expression by Air. Roose- welt in favor of that speciol ism" It was merely an endorsement by Dr. Lyman Abbott, the editor of The Outlook of the California insurgents. This endorsement was made during the campaign in which not a word had been uttered by any of the principal insurgent candidates in favor of direct legislation. Therefore Dr. Abbott's endorsement could not have applied gent fight against prevalent corrup- ton in politics in California and the domination of the Southern Pacific railroad company.
 But even if Dr. Abbott had openly espoused the cause of direct legisla tion, the ignoramus should have re- membered, if he had ever heard of it. that Colonel Roosevelt after estab fishing his peculiar relation with The Outlook expressly disclaimed any responsibility for any policy advocated by that magazine, unless it were ad vocated by himself directly.
 Moreover, as to the California sit uation, Colonel Roosevelt very plainly told both the regulars and the in- surgents of California that he stood aloof; that neither MT. Pinchot nor any other person who had taken the part of the insurgents represented his sentiments or had authority to attempt to interpret them. Later. when Fremont Older of the San Fran cisco Bulletin wired him in the hope of securing some slight modification of his statement, the colonel replied to that insurgent quite pOintedly that
 
 his insistence was unnecessary and annoying
 No one doubts that if Colonel Roose- welt believed that direct legislation would cure or relieve the ills of the body polite, he would prescribe it in characteristically plain language.
 We may add in conclusion that if Colonel Roosevelt ever desired to say anything in favor of the initiative, the referendum and recall, he was afforded an opportune occasion yes terday afternoon when he addressed the Colorado legislature which had been called into extraordinary ses- sion for the main purpose of en- grating that system upon the state government. There was not a sylla- | ble of approval of direct legislation. 1

 merely in the way of parenthesis, that neither will the Copper Queen Mining Company of which he is the chief
 down.
 If MT. Ellinwood becomes a member of that convention and the democrats control it, Arizona will be committed to the experiment of direct legislation The Democrat has asserted what we believe to be a fact-Mr. Ellinwood will fulfin his obligation.
 But in his long and brilliant legal career, this is the first time Mir Ellin- wood has apparently found a way in his capacity of a distinguished cor poratiOn lawyer to serve the people" or those of the people who think direct legislation is a good thing.
 MT Ellinwood has hitherto found the interests of his clients and the people in conflict. A few years ago MT. FL linwOod was elected by the people to be district attorney of Yavapai county. He served them acceptably and ably until some of the people believed the United Verde company was not bearing it's share of the weight of taxation. This belief on the part of the people at last took the form of litigation in which the at torney for the people took the part of vigorous prosecutor of the peoples claim against the mining company.
 The attitude of MT Ellinwood was of more value to the United Verde than the ability and ingenuity of its own attorneys.
 Not long after that, in fact, before the matter was finally disposed of in the courts, MT. Ellinwood severed, by resignation. his relations with the people and became chief counsel for the Copper Queen Mining Company. MT. MT. Ellinwood became the most vigorous and the ablest opponent of Governor Kibbey's efforts to make the mining companies pay their share of the taxes, and by the way, the Cop per Queen was the company which most vigorously resisted payment. Its obstacle in the courts and in a sub sequent legislature where a bill giving i the governor more definite power to equalize the taxes as between the 1 mining companies and the people" was pending

consent of the congress, accept of any present, emolument, office or title, of any kind whatever. from any king, prince or foreign state"
 The purpose of this clause is evil dently to express general sympathy with the democratic ideal, but while it strictly prohibits the creation of an order of nobility in the United States, it makes a reservation with regard to titles or other ''honors" conferred by foreign powers on Amer jeans in recognition of distinctions and services. An American officer, civil or military, may receive such honorS, marks of distinction, mem- bership of foreign orders, and wear the accompanying insignia if con gross consents, but it's consent must in every instance be obtained. Only the past winter congress was very scrupulous as to approving these dis tinctions, and actually withheld the license some officers solicited. The plain, every day American citizen holding no office of trust or emOlu ment is not compelled to risk the veto of congress in becoming a member of the Legion of Honor, or any one of the several German orders mem bership of which is conferred for merit In fact, he may receive as many marks of distinction as foreign governments are pleased to award. It is also a matter of common mo- toriety that there are American citi- zens holding titles of nobility abroad, which they never display at home, whose civic status has, as a matter of public record, passed unquestioned.
 The United States takes a differ ent view of mobility" from that of several other republics, because it is not only a republic. but an avowed democracv. In Switzerland nobility comes down from the middle ages by prescription. France has time and time again decreed that titles of mo- bility are unrepublcan and as such are abolished. Nevertheless, they sur vive, and no one thinks of withhold ing them from their possessors in social usage. Monsieur le Due" is still Monsieur le Due" to the aver age Frenchman, and receives defer ence accordingly. Notwithstanding the fall of the empire. titles still eX- ist in Brazil, and Baron Rio Franco has long been in charge of its for eign relations.
