OBSERVATIONS OF
 A CLODHOPPER
By E. z. MARK.

People used to worship the Diety and sing his praises from within his steepled halls of sanctity; but To, change has been wrought and another God has stolen the atten- ton of the religions and all the world joins in the revelry.
 That God is the" almighty dollar" and nothing else. The moon con- trols the tides, the sun controls the plant life on earth as we'll as the animal. but the dollar controls them all. The dollar can erect levee's to stay the tide, furnish means for the destruction or pro- pagation of plant and animal life and can change the whole face oi the earth.
 It is the medium which works wonderful transitions from poverty to palaces, 1t clothes the barefooted street urchins, it lifts the man in greasy overalls to the plane of the Prince Albert coat and plug hat.
 The children leave their play for it, college graduates madly tear after it.. The business man, the traveller, the butcher, the minister and the lawyer all chase after it.
 Yes, for paltry aggregation oi them many drop of crimson life blood has stained the hands of a murderer, many triple and multi form tradgedy has been enacted.
 What do you labor for? Why does the great net work of rail roads exist? Why does the smoke ascend from myriads of fues? Why tolls the miner? Why slaves the pick and shovel man, and in fact, is anything done for this day and and age? Only for money. the al- mighty dollar. -
 That's right, screw the wages oi labor down, boost up the prices of provisions, water the stock market. soak your neighbor, lie, steal, murder, do anything to get  the money. You need it. We do not knock it out of us. Rob the the poor. beat the rich, murder the wise, but get the money. If you can't get it honestly. getit anyhow Motto: Get the Money!

Doan as associate justice and judge of the Fourth Judicial district. The appointments were confirmed by the senate without any oppo- sition. The president and the department of justice were inform ed of the unanimous adoption of a resolution by. the Arizona Bar Association requesting the reap. pointment of Judges Kent and Doan. Governor Sloan who was in Washington last week added his testimony to the efficiency of the services of the judges and to the esteem in which they are held by the bar and the residents of their judicial districts.

IMPoLITENEss is one of the worst habits that any peraon can prac. tise. This unpardonable habit is shown more plainly among the em. ployes of the American railway companies than with any other one class of people. Take for an ex ample majority of the station men who will hardly ever answer in a polite manner civil question pu, up by the innocent traveller. The employees have no excuse to be impolite and grouchy. It is just as cheap to be polite and answer all civil questions correctly and with a cheerful countenance.

WHEN you see crowd of boys and young men yelling and stamp ing their feet, when there is no call for it, you can just bet your bottom dollar that they lack the necessary home training. The thoughtful parent will see to it that the boy, however bad, will behave himself at a public entertainment or else stays at home. It is also the duty of a teacher at school to instruct pupils to act mannerly at public places as we'll as at school. It does not look nice for bunch of boys to annoy with their screa ms the audience as we'll as the performers. These bad boys are found, not a thousand miles from Williams.

What to Forget.

If you would increase your hap piness and prolong your life, forget your neighbours fault. Forget all the islander you have ever heard. Forget the temptations. Forget the fault finding and give a little thought which provoked it. Forget the particulars of your friends and only remember the good points which made you fond of them. For get all personal quarrels or histories you may have heard by accident, and which, If repeated, would seem thousand times worse than they are. Blot out as far as possible all the disagreeables of life; they will come, but will only grow larger when you remember them and the constant thought of the acts of meanness, or, worse still, malice will only tend to make you more familiar with them. Obliterate ev- erything disagreeable from yester- day, start out with a clean sheet today, and write upon it for sweet memory's sake only those things which are lovely and lovable.- Wilcox News.

TO PAY WELL FOR
 CENSUS ENUMERATORS

The varying wage scale in differ ent parts of the country and the differences in the nature and ex- tent of the local difficulties con- fronting the enumerators in the larger geographical divisions of the United States have influenced and guided U. s. Census Director Du- rand in the adoption of classifi- cation of enumerators' rates of com pensation, within the limits pre- scribed by the U. s. census law en- acted by congress.
 The different classes of rates will be so applied that in general the average enumerator will earn sub- stantially the same, actual amount in one district as another, even though the population may be much sparser in one than in the other, with other conditions also different. Regard is paid to the fact that prevailing wages and sal aries are higher in some parts of the country than in others, but, aside from this, the directors aim is to adjust the rates so as to make the earnings of enumerators sub stantially uniform. Where the per capita rates would not give suffi- cient pay, the per diem rates are prescribed. The rates in general will be so adjusted as to give slightly higher average amount to the enumerators than they received in 1900.
 Per diem rates of pay will be paid to the census enumerators in the sparsely settled rural districts of Arizona, California, Colorado, Mon tana, Idaho, Texas, Utah, Wash ington and Wyoming.
 The rate will range from $5 to $6 per day for the enumeration of the rural areas outside of cities and towns. Six dollars is the highest rate authorized by law.
 The director realizes that in many districts of the far west it will be impossible to secure competent men to act as enumerators at rate of com pensation less than that being paid for ordinary classes of work in the same area. Were .enumera tors in such districts paid only on the per capita basis, their compen- sation would be unreasonLblY low.

COST OF THE DRINK
 HABIT IN FIGURES

talking for a long time against the booze habit, in an effort to dissuade the public away from "the demon rum" and all its little sisters and brothers in the demon line, and sometimes they have come out with some pretty astounding arguments, but hardly any of them have been as forcible as that with which an Ohio merchant comes to bat.
 He walks right up to the plate, shows them just what the game costs and tells them exactly what he is willing to do for all men who are willing to quit visiting the thirst parlors and booze emporiums and turn over to him the value of the money they have been in the daily habit of sliding over the polished mahogany to the man-in the white apron in front of the plate glass [ mirror
 He has come out in his home paper with his advertisement and here is the way it reads:
 Anyone who drinks three drinks of whisky a day for one year and pays ten cents drink for it can have in exchange at my store: 200 lbs. granulated sugar, 25 lbs coffee, 20 lbs. tea, 50 lbs. prunes, 20 lbs. raisins, 50 lbs. rice, 1 bbl. crackers, 100 lbs. hominy, 50 cakes laundry soap, 25 cakes toilet soap, 5 dozen clothes pins, 20 gal. coal oil, 100 lbs. salt, 5 lbs. pepper, 10 starch, 100 lbs. beans, 10 lbs soda, 25 cans tomatoes, 24 boxes matches, 20 cans salmon, 100 yds. muslin, 100 yards calico, 50 yds. gingham, 50 yards shirting, 50 yds. outing flannel, 50 yds. toweling, 50 yds. lace, 5 pairs lace curtains, 5 pairs blankets, 10 pairs shoes, 25 pair hose, 50 spools thread, 80 handkerchiefs, 10 window shades, 10 papers pins, 10 papers needles, 12 dog. buttons, 10 suits underwear, 25 yds. straw mating. for the same money and get $4 93 premium for making the change in his expenditures"
 In other words, this merchant, after figuring things out a bit, is able to show man where he can almost support a family year on the sum he thinks very little of as he spends it every day for his mornin's mornin., his night cap and his monday social drink. Just three drinks a day-they would cost forty five cent day in Will ans, for saloon men don't sell whisky at ten cents a glass in this mans town-are sufficient to keep family going, and few drinking men do not confne themselves to three drinks day.
 Put in the light in which the Ohio merchant shows it, the drink evil seems a great one indeed and it is as just as great as it seems, but few realize what it costs until they have it brought home to them in some such argument as this. It is worth passing up.

TRIBUTE TO A FRIEND
Lines written on the death of my dear friend, Rose Hicks.

Dedicated to Harvey Hicks and Family My dearest friends, pray do not mourn For the loved one who has gone; But strive to meet her over there In that Heavenly land. so fair. She drank the cup of life awhile, But found it hard to drain; She put it from her with q smile, And left this world of pain. And though the burning tears will fall And your sad hearts nearly break, We will love and cherish you All the dearer for her sake. Then who would wish her back again In this world of grief and pain; She was not yours-but Gods alone; He loved her best. and took her home.
