TREASON RESTORED IN THE FACE OF DANGER

Make no mistake-investment will not trust itself to untried hands. Capital indulges in no ex- perinents.. A change in govern ment and policies at this critical period in the city's development would, at the best. be an expert ment. At the best that experiment would be attended by grave conse- quences and it might result in disaster"
 It may be suspected that the foregoing is from the capitalistic press. from a reactionary organ, from serv1Ie supporter of Special Privilege and Private Interest. But, my brethren, it is not. It is frantic oppeal by the Los Angelee Tribune to the voters of Los An geles to hold out glad hand to capital by defeating socialism at the forthcoming municipal cleo ton.
 The Tribune and the Express in times past have not urged public measures especially attractive to capital. They have in many ways suggested reforms which would or might result in the wiping out of investments. They have advocated municipal competition with public utilities companies which would almost certainly be fatal to those companies. They have advocated legislation which would place ca pital at the mercy of every pass ing whim of the voters swayed by demagogues.
 It IS a question whether capital would not rather put its trust in certain well defined principles ot socialistic government than to risk the uncertainty of an all-powerful popular rule. Capital, under social ism, would at least be sure of it's position; under the limitless power of the people It could be sure of nothing from one initiated legis- lation to another.
 It ls true that the most of the people gre intelligent, fair and

TIE REPUBLICAN OPPOR- TIINITY HAS BEEN LOST

When Ralph Ga meron in 1908 was elected to represent Arizona in the House of representatives the republican party in Arizona was in the ascendancy. The party was thoroughly organized and MT. Cameron received a handsome majority. He took his seat in Congress in March 1909 with the solid support of a majority Of the voters of Arizona behind him re- lying upon republican promises of statehood at an early date. From the first day MT. Cameron took his seat in the House he became the victim of republican chicanery. Instead of granting statehood to the territories an enabling act was drawn having for its purpose the denial of the right of self govern ment to the people of Arizona and to withhold statehood from them unless the people of Arizona bowed to the wishes of the national re- publican leaders who reserved the right to dictate the form and prln-

All other issues in this cam paign have paled into insignifi- gance. Tn box car letters the Re- publican papers want to know: Was G. W. P. Hunt seen in con- versation with E. B. Ellinwood and w. B. Kelly in the lobby of the Adams Hotel on a certain night during the Fair Week? If c. w. P Hunt, democratic can didate for Governor was seen re- gently in Phoenix conversing with Hon. E. E. Ellinwood of Bisbee and w. B. Kelly of Clifton we say if he was seen holding a conversation-all we have to say is that George was in mighty good company.

COMICAL ANTICS OF RALPH CAMERON

MT. Can eron promises, if elect ed, to wheedle the Federal govern ment into purchasing sufficient of northwestern Mexico to furnish us with q deep water port on the Gulf of California.
 If possible or practicable, such consummation would prove of inestimable value, rot only to Arizona, by affording a wonder fully cheap transportation outlet in connection with the Panama canal, but to the United States, through providing an important stragetical naval base which would certainly be of immense import ance in time of war. The flow in the scheme is our ina bility to land it, because M-. Cameron cannot deliver the goods.
 The Mexican constitution pro- hibi Is the sale of any of her terri tory to fereign nations. In conse- quence, such transfer could not be made without inviting an in ternal political upheavel and the probable overturning of her gov erumental machinery. The fervid patriotism of the Mexican people would stop the sale of any part of their fatherland. The only re- maining methods of transfer would be by penalty through the exigen- cies of war, which owing to the ex- tremelv cordial relations existing between the two repu plies, is un- i'm agina ble; or to the ceding of a DOT tion of Mexico in exchange for a corresponding portion of the United States. And neither our people nor those of the sister re- public would tolerate such an arrangement
 Why, then, should Mir. Cameron make himself and Arizona ridic- ulous in the eyes of the nation by promising the impossible? Why this attempt to fool the people sole ly to extract their votes toward furthering his personal ambition for seat in the senate cham Der? Why insult the intelligence and patriotism Of the Mexican people by proposing to dismembe their country and make of Mexico an- other Poland.
 Delegate Cameron is just back from Washington. Strange that this happy thought did not strike him while he was in Was hington. It was reserved for the ''piece de resistance" in the first state cam paign."

ciples of Arizona's constitution.
 The republican enabling act with
 this un American and unprecedent ed provision, giving the right to
 congress and the President to dic- tate the form of the new state gov ernment, spelled the political doom of Ralph Cameron. It was a re- pudiation by the republican party of the pledge of statehood-that statehood which the people of Ari- zona had a right to expect, tha t kind of statehood which had been granted to every other territory seeking admission. Confidence in the republican party was destroy ed by this program. Ralph Cam eron was given his political death blow by his own party. There is no enthusiasm in this campaign for Ralph Cameron on account of statehood. The enabling act, with a st: ing tied to it, was a bitter cup passed to the voters of Ari
 zona. To bring an end to terr1to- rial existence they gulped it down but the bitter taste still remains. The republican party and Ralph

Lime as Food For Fowls.

Much attention has been given to
lime as food for fowls Many years
ago II was considered only as grit aud
not as food necessity. Lime must be
supplied In some form, for the fowls
must have the materials from which to
make the shells OF the eggs, II the
food Is OF a varied character, such as
bone. meat and clover. the shells OF
the egg will be provided for.
Glover contains thirty times mere
lime than corn and is therefore more
valuabH for the making Of eggs The
hens that lay all the Wiuter. when the
prices are high. are the ones that should
have attention and not only enough
food TO supply all their needs, but food
that will go directly toward the com
position Of the eggs and supply the
wants of the body at the same time.
