When THE Evening Post" Endorses
Governor Harmon's reckless criticism of
President Taft for adhering 10 the idea
that single schedule tariff revision
ought to wait upon reports from the
Tariff BOARD and echoes his complaints
about the Presidents waiting until
five men who arc not responsible to
the people, nor even experts, shall ad-
wise him" it forgets its own repeated
Communications OF the commission meth
cd of revision as compared with the
haphazard log rolling method hitherto
employed by Congress. Only the other
day In rebuking The World for sneer-
ing at the members of the board as
persons OF no consequence THE POST
said:
Mr. Tafts veto of the wool bill was
wrong not because the Tariff Board can
not play useful part I'm legislation, but
because I'm the special case OF the WOOL
bill there was no need TO wait Tor n pro
nounccment by the Tariff Board, on the
Presidents own showing. Otherwise there
car he no doubt that what we need In the
business of tariff revision Is an authorita-
tive presentation of the facts and figures
that must underle any permanent ana
Just solution Of the problem.
Governor Harmon stretched his argu-
ment so as to condemn tho veto of the
cotton. steel and iron and chemical
schedule bill. But THE Post has never
sought 10 palliate the fact that that
measure was drawn in ignorance and
frivolity and richly deserved a veto

Praises MiCheIsen

The Arizona Democrat of yesterday afternoon says of Territorial Secretary George Michelsen, of Yuma:
 Working along somewhat different lines from Chairman Birdno, but just as willing; just as capable and just as attentive to his duties, was George Michelsen, of Yuma, secretary of the state Democratic committee.
 When MT. Michelsen was nominat. ed for the position of state secretary at the Democratic conference here several weeks ago, the man who plac- ed his name before the body said Michelsen knew when to do and when to don't" The word of the friend has been proven by the gentleman from Yuma. Not only does he know when to do things for the good of Democra- cy, but equally as valuable an asset, is the fact that he knows when to leave other things undone, which might work to the disadvantage of the par ty."

All Not lost

There were probably many dis satisfied people in Arizona this morn ing. Some were dissatisfied because they were defeated; some because they had lost bet or two, and still others simply because Of the way the election went, but there is no use in being grouchy or dissatisfied.
 The same sun shines OF the world as yesterday. The sky is just IS bright and the world is just as gay.
 The only thing that has changed for any one is the point of view. Yester- day morning and election morning many hoped they were elected, many others hoped they had won their bets. many hoped they would sweep the state. Half of these are satisfied that the world is bright and a good place to live in. The other half has sim ply changed its point of view.
 But hope springs eternal.
 There is always another day and without hope there would not be much to life at best.
 Here in Yuma the work on the si- phon is going ahead just as merrily as it was the day before the election.
 The land is just as rich and fertile as it was before; Yuma is still just the same old 'best town on the map"
 The only difference is: "The other fellows beat us.
 Next time-we'll trim them.

Superintendent Here

H. McPhee, superintendent of the Western Union Telegraph company with headquarters in Los Angeles, was in town this morning and made a trip to Potholes and viewed Laguna dam.
 He remarked that in his opinion that Yuma should make the second larg- est town in the state, being surround ed by so many natural resources, etc.
 He was disappointed in not being able to see more of the country, but on account of other engagements had to leave on the noon train for Calexi- co. He hopes to return soon when he will be able to see more of the Yuma country.

Nothing Left But
 Hope for Next Year

1 The returns from Yuma county dc not leave the Republicans leg tc stand on. The Democrats have swept the platter clean.
 Every officer in the county will be g Democrat for ONE year. But let the Republicans remember that it is for ONE year and not fol two, and let them also remember that within the next eight months we will all again be in the midst of fight foI county, state and national officers. Nearly always the Democrats win in the off years.
 Never since the days of Grover Cleveland have they won in a presi. dential year.
 Now is the time for Republicans to go to organizing. Now is the time for the Yuma county Republicans to cease all senseless pickering between them selves. Now is the time to do away with factions and cliques. Now is the time to begin to get ready for the fray of 1912.
 It has either been demonstrated that Yuma county is largely Democratic, or it has been demonstrated that the Re- publicans were badly split and divided
 In either event the Democrats are in the saddle for one year, but who can tell what may take place in that one year, or for that matter, in the first six months thereof.
 Human popularity is a frail reed for anyone to lean upon. To-day it is yours, and tomorrow it is gone.
 No man can tell exactly how he gets it or where it gets away from him.
 Life is made up of little things, and it is generally the little things that count for or against.
 The Democrats have been in control of the county since 1908. The county is now hopelessly in debt. A new board of supervisors must take the place of the old.
 What the political outlook will be six months from now, no man can tell.
 None of us know what the future holds in store for us. The wave of or the wave of progressive ism that has swept over Arizona in the present election, may pass in the next six months as ships pass in the night"
 It may pass as did the free silver
Arizona sentinel and Yuma weekly examiner., 1911-12-14

wave; it may pass as did the populis- tic wave. Then again the referendum and recall may be here to stay.
 Certainly majority of the people of Arizona have registered as being in favor of them.
 They are here and they will be tried by the people of Arizona. If they are found wanting, it will be up to the peo- pie to remedy them, which they can be counted on to do.
 If they are here to stay, then they must be accepted by all the people be- cause the majority so wills-and 8 majority must always rule.
 So it is up to all of us to accept the new order of things. Up to all of us to give them fair, square trial. The majority of the people may be right and the majority may be wrong as majorities sometimes are when carried away by enthusiasm or passion or the popularity of any one movement.
 Iu0 dlOu0 VIII L6I. muse Ol us who fought them at their inception be- fore the constitutional convention should lend our aid to give them B fair trial, just as those who fought for them.
 The Democrats will have absolute control of Arizona for the next year.
 It is up to them to make good on their promises; to make good on their government.
 It is up to all of us to lend our eff forts, our brains and our hands to make Arizona one of the greatest states in the union.
 The majority of the Arizona people can be trusted to weigh the party in power when election time comes next year.
 And no man can tell at present what the mistakes or successes of that par ty will be.

Wells Fargo Suggestions
