One Of the features Of the constitu- tional convention which was pleasing was the practically unanimous action in incorporatiaG such safeguards for the workfngmen of the proposed new state as was proposed. or course there were propositions presented, supposedly fn the interest of the work ngman which could not properly be incorporated in a constitution and which would be more harmful than beneficial to government Dur ing an experience Of twenty-three years in Arizona the writer has found that the wass-earning class has al ways been lsw-abiding and when their numbers are considered, very few have ever been haied into court. This fact was proven in Bisbee dur ing the strike of 1907. when more than one thousand miners left the employment of the companies in the district. During this struggle which lasted for two or three months there were not more than half dozen ar rests on charges growing out of the strike The laboring men, as T ;.ass, are desirous of a stable gov. e-ament which will be a guarantee of individual liberty and rights and also government under which all property rights will be secure and
 ,acred, and this is what all classes of good citizens should desire. The
 working men of Arizona were weJ treated by the constitutional conveN-
 ten and all should be glad of this. as upon their wages we must all oe
 pend for business prosperity.

PUSSY FOOT, POLITICS NO LONGER FAVORED.
The Tucson Citizen has seen : great political light. and makes ! frank confession. 1t says:

great political light. and makes . rank confession. 1t says:
 No party deserves to win an election, city, state CT national, that deliberately refuses to give voters a clue as to the policies for which its candidates stand. This is what the republican party attempted in the city campaign that closed yesterday and they nave been rewarded with an overwhelming victory for the op- posing ticket With the excep- tiol of Cle candidate for mayor, not a single one Of the Tepubli- cans Cn the ticket has even made q declaration of principle or pol icy. Even the statement Of MT.
 Rider did not appear Hntil a de- mand for some such declaration
 was expressed through the Citi-
 zen. The statement left much
 to be deesiTed. The democrats
 were quick to see their mistake
 and came forward at the eleventh
 hour with list or pledges which
 helped io save the day for their
 ticket, and this in spite of the
 handicap their candidate far
 mayor suffered by reason of his
 connection with the present city
 administration.
 From which one is led to believe that the Citizen also sees the mis take it made during the constitution al campaign. when the republicans refused 10 discuss the issues or tel whas tsey intended to do in thu way of constitution making, in cas- they were successful. The Citizel was credited with being the chic organ Of the machine which dictates this policy. and if it is able to se' the truth with reference to the eff; election of Tucson, it can no doub take in the wider and more faI reaching mistake along the sam lines. We do not say that the demC c-ats, would have been defeated the republicans had announced a de mite purpose with respect to pro visions in the constitution, but ther can be no doubt that the course pul sued cost the party hundreds votes.
 Nowadays the voter wants t. knc' what the office seeker proposes. II refuses to be waved aside with tn equivalent of "oh. that's all right you can trust me to do what best for you" Public servants are nc guardians of the people, and any a iitude winch places them ia tha light has become particularly afIei sive.
