LEONARD KAvENAUGH
 WAS FOUND DEAD
Stricken at His Home Across the
 River.

Leonard Kavanaugh, who came to Phoenix about five years ago for his health, and filed on a piece of land across the river where he has been making his home was found sitting in a chair dead about seven o'clock yester- day evening by neighbors who carry water from his place. MT. Kavanaugh was a pressman and had been working on the Democrat where he worked last Saturday. As nothing was seen of him about his place all day one of the neighbors thought some thing must be wrong and an investi- gation followed with the results of finding his body.
 Mir. Kavanaugh has a brother in Phoenix who is employed at the Ari- zona Seed House and when seen last evening stated that no arrangements would be made for the funeral until advices came from his parents who live in Boston. MT. Kavanaugh was sec retary of the Phoenix local Pressmen's Union 250. He was about thirty years of age.
 The body was taken to the under taking parlors of Merryman and Hayt, 124 North Second Ave.

our influence is needed to stir men up to do right it should be forthcoming. When force even, or votes and argu- ments are demanded to destroy an enemy of righteousness or remove an obstacle to the progress of truth we are traitors if we withhold them.
 We are Teachers. This is a sacred function that Christ has entrusted to us. Not merely to impart knowledge but to properly educate the whole man. We are given a body of truth that is thought compelling. sin-killing and soul-enlarging. We are told to go and teach it to all nations. It brings truth to the intellect. righteousness to the will and love to the heart. It supplies the needs of the whole man. We must bring man to know his God. The church will fail if it merely attempts to stuff the brain. It must work to enlarge the soul to the extent of di- vien love. J. Brierly has said that Christianity is love thrilled by a felt contact with One whose life and soul were Love Incarnate, love that goes forth in constant joyful service. The world can carry on its own intellectual affairs to advantage. But its poor heart is starved.
 But we cannot find the wisdom Tn ourselves by which we are to bring light to the world. We do not have to. for We are given Book that sup plies all our wants. The Bible con- tahing Gods revelations to us in our text book, and we have translated II into the language and dialect of almost all the tribes and nations of the earth. Experts tell us that we are now put ting it in reach of only one out or eV- cry 6O,OOO of the heather people m spite of the fact that it can be furn- ished for less than a dime each ana that converted natives can be obtained to spread it for less than s1OO.OO per wear I feel almost like taking col lection for the American and Foreign Bible Society every time l think or It.
 "Charles Dickens, the worlds master of pathetic style, when asked what was the most touching story in literature answered, The story of the Prodigai Son.

 Reatitudes. One of the worlds great est actors said that there was one massage so full of tears that no man could properly render it the one De- ginning. Come unto Me all ye that are weary and I will give you rest. Edmund Rurke said that the most inn portant political on the rights of man was the Sermon on the Mount.

chases of commissions in the army.
 From Romilly's point of view, the
 transaction was quite proper and if
 all purchasers had been like him, this method of forming parliaments
 would have been the best for Eng land
 The popular house of the English parliament then, was less a repre- sentative body than at present and its members were less solicitous for their constituents than for the good of England as a whole.
 Such elections as were then held were apt to be hit-and-miss affairs, so that the business-like purchase of a seat was naturally regarded as a more orderly procedure than a cam paign, distinguished by violence and Iappeals to prejudice. Since the members of parliament had com paratively little opportunity for serv- ing themselves, persons of corrupt tendencies were less likely to engage in the purchase of seats than really patriotic Englishmen who found that method of entering parliament to be the most direct way to a position in which they could best serve the country.
Arizona republican., 1911-08-14

For men who were so solicitous for the farmers. the democrats and insurgents of the house and senate are splitting some very fine hairs. It is evident that they are not sure that it will be safe to take the chance that the president will veto that measure. There was the same ap- prehension regarding the wool bill until the coalition had positive information
 that the president would interpose a veto. If the president were more of a politician and less of a statesman or, if he were given to bluffing, he would keep that unholy alliance en- gagged in the acrobatic feat of jump ing sideways"

When Parliament Seats Were Bought

What is regarded in this country as the most dangerous form of cor ruption, acquiring office by bribery. was once regarded in England as a means of purifying the government and neither taint nor secrecy attached to the employment of such means.
 In his lecture on English Traits, ' Emerson observes in a note:
 sir Samuel Romilly, purest of English patriots decided that the only independent mode of entering parlia- ment was to buy seat and he bought Horsham."
 Though such things have happened since. this occurred before the pass age of the reform bill extending the suffrage.
 The transaction was conducted as openly as were the sales and pur-

che plans for the annual Chautau-
qua which will be held in the Glen
the latter part of this month are
gradually and surely taking con-
crete form. All Indications tend to
lead those In charge to believe that
the affair this year will be much larg-
er than in any previous year. The

for the crowds Is now under way, and
before many days the park will be an

what It is at present.
II the new park project turns out
as planned. this will be the last Chau-
tauqua in the present location.
The only basis for an estimate of
the attendance which can be gained
a. yet is from the number OF old
campers who have asked to be located
In the same quarters as they were
last year. The sale Of lots has al
ready been thrown open to these peo-
pie. and a surprisingly large number
have reserved their old places. The
lot sale will be opened to the public
next Monday. Subscribers tickets
may be secured at the Y. NJ. G. A. at
any time now, and the regular ticket
sale commences tomorrow morning.

There will be one or two slight
changes In the map of the grounds
this year. The most important one
will be the moving of the children's
tent from It's accustomed place at the
north end to the southern extremity
OF the site. This alteration was made
possible by the face that there will

managers thought the change advisa-

some, of them thought that congress
might adjourn as early as next Tues

by August 10 at the latest.
The senate leaders will insist on

ably impose night sessions to hurry
the remaining business. The house

ting the wool bill. If cenferees do
not speedily agree it is probable the
house will move to discharge them.

MAYOR IS AGAINST
PUBLIC MEETINGS
Does Not Believe They Are
Of Much Benefit - He
Has Another Plan.

After the discussion of the propo-
sails submitted to the city for water
works franchise is completed the
board of public works will formulate
a plan which will be given to the COM
peting companies for consideration.
Mayor Zimmerman is a trifle doubtful
as to whether the public meetings
which are being held to discuss the
water works question will bring re-
suits. He believes that time is being
wasted.
The mayor has a plan of his own
plant He believes that the rates
should remain as under the present
contract and that the company should
give the city certain amount an
nually which should be placed in a
sinking fund for the purchase of the
plant at the end of the twenty-five
year franchise.
IF a person is in business he is moi
going to invite the public to attend a
meeting to decide what he shall dc
before he has formed any idea of what
he wishes to do" 1T was my idea to
have the board of works formulate a
plan which was to be submitted to the
companies for bids and then to have
the public discuss it. The trouble with
these meetings is that the discussion
is not confined to the section of the
proposal read. 1t is not because we
want to keep anything from the pub
lie, that l am criticising them.
When these meetings are over the
board will draw up it's plan and the
council may help if sony member wish
es to, but it seems as If the council
men do not like to attend these meet
ings. Then the matter will be present
