The most magnificent social
affair held in Washington for
many day was the silver Wedd-
ing reception of President and
Mrs. Taft, at which five thousand
guests gathered on the White
House lawn. The grounds of
of the Executive Mansion were
ablaze with thousand of lights
and handsomely gowned women
and splendid uniforms of the mil
itary added to the beauty of the
occasion. President and Mrs.
Taft came into the scene as the
Marine Band played a wedding
march. The presents that were
given were among the most cost
ly and beautiful ever presented
to President of the United
States. On the evening follow.
ing the great event, the White
House and grounds were thrown
open to the public by request OF
Mrs. Taft.

The prophets who predicted that
Congress would adjourn on July
first, have now showed their date
forward several weeks and the
earliest guessers are selecting the
early days of August for the pro-
bable adjournment of Congress.
However, as no two people agree,
and as the work of the session
has not progressed to any state
where the fate of any great legis-
lation can be foretold, it will not
be surprising should Congress re-
main in session practically all
summer.

Judge Kent

When Judge Kent left Phoenix
for the east he gave an interview
to the Arizona Gazette in which
he stated that he would go be-
fore the senate committee on
territories and urge the imme-
diate approval of the joint reso-
luton admitting both Arizona
and New Mexico, which is now
before that body.
Judge Kent's action is the ac-
ton of a man who, however he
may be interested in the feeling
of official Washington, is also and
more deeply interested in the
welfare and desires of his own
people here at home. At a time
when most federal officeholders
in Arizona are doing all in their
power to block statehood for Ari-
zona because the people insist
upon retaining the reins of pow
er to govern themselves in their
own hands, this federal office
holder goes before the senate
committee to urge that the peo-
pie of Arizona be granted their
desires.
The telegraph brings informa-
tion to the effect that Judge Kent
is today before the committee.
The action of Judge Kent in this
regard and under these circusmst-
ances will be long remembered ir
Arizona. And it will be honoreC
and the actor respected as long as
it is remembered. -Ariz. Gazette

Why Folk Should Be the
Democratic Nominee.

| cannot resist repeating some
more advice to the democrats
not only of Missouri but of the
country at large. The state de-
mocracy has endorsed Joseph W.
Folk for the presidential nomina'
ton in the 1912 campaign, but
from advices from this distance
some of the leaders" are trying
to squirm out of it now with the
pretext that Folk will not be in
the running anyhow. That is your
genuine peanut politician. Those
kind do not want Folk because
he is a fighter against graft
and that is what professional
politicians feed en-. They are
afraid he will spoil their game.
| Admire Champ Clark very
much; in fact he would be my
second chice, Woodrow Wilson
the third choice, but | reiterate
Folk is first, the strong man of
the party, the one who can unite
the democracy of the east, south
and who will make stronger bid
for the vote of the north than
any man in the party. Clark is
already holding the second high
est honors in the gift of the party,
and Wilson would make a good
running mate for Folk. Wilson's S
statemanship is more academic
and theoretical than practical.
His accomplishments thus far
are more oral than otherwise.
His ideas are good but he has not
demonstrated his ability to put
them into practice nor how firm
he would be in his advocacy of
of them were he in a position to
have opportunity to work them
out. We know what to expect
from Folk; he has been tried and
made good first, last and all the
time. The times and conditions
demand just such a president as
Folk would make. There is a lot
of checking up to be done. 1t will
take a president with real nerve
and backbone to do it, or compel
it to be done. Joseph w. Folk
has both nerve and backbone.
and with him personal friendship
or special interests would not
stand in the way of duty. That
is the kind of president the
country needs. The democratic
party faces a situation which, if
it uses proper intelligence,
will give it a great victory. 1t
might win with Clark or Wilson
at the head of the party, but it's
triumph is much more certain if
Folk heads the ticket; in short
| believe the latter the only man
in the party who can make the
campaign a certainty from the
beginning. Some other may win
but there is nothing certain about
it, and the party should take no
chances.

The Arizona University
Catalogue.

ICCSllCly lOOuCO lC0 IlSW NoCC'lOSo O'>
and a copy has come to this office.
1t is being generally pronounced
the most attractive ever issued
by the institution.
The catalogue is gotten out in
a larger page and more attractive
typographical appearance than
heretofore. The University is OF
the opinion that the best of typo
graphy is none too good for a
public institution.
For next year a new depart
ment in electrical engineering
is offered under the direction of
Professor Henley and Instructor
Snow. The work in this depart
ment will be comprehensive. A
four-year couse in agriculture is
instituted, with the degree of Ba-
chelor of Science in Agriculture.
The instruction of this course will
be illustrated by active work on
the farm in the Rillito valley.
The catalogue shows dimin-
lshing number of preparatory
students, especially of those from
Tucson. The University has no
desire to compete with the local
or other high schools, and antici-
pates the time when all the pre-
paratory work of the University
will cease, leaving this to the
high schools. But the time has
not yet come, and while the work
continues. it will be given as
strongly as possible.
Professor Turrell of the ro-
nance language department will
be on leave of absence for the
year, Mr.. Otis taking his work.
Prof. Thornber of the Agricultur-
al Experiment. Station and head of
the department of botany will
also be on leave.
The University has aimed in
the catalogue to make it plain,
not only to the student on the
ground, but to anybody who
might be interested in the insti-
tuition, keeping it as clear as may
be from technicalities and obscure
statements.
About 200 students have been
in attendance during the year, a
number which might be increased
without much difficulty if only
the territory were informed how
many are the advantages of the
University. There are few col
leges which give so much for so
little cost. An Arizona student
may spend year at the Univer-
sity for not more than $225 to
$3.50 for all University charges,
including board and room. While
in many eastern colleges rooms
cost from $50 a year to $500, they
cost in Tucson at the Universi- y
only $25. Board which is much
higher for other people in the
Southwest, costs no more for
students of the University than
in many of the colleges Of the
middle west, or $18 month.
The University is already press
ed for dormitory space and the
first of the new buildings asked
for is a modern dormitory for
young women. Other buildings
mentioned as desirable are for
mining, for metallurgy and me-
chanic arts, agriculture, an audi
torirm housing also the museum
and the armory, and a students
clubhouse.

THE FUNERAL
Of The Late Hon. A. A. Whit.
Dey Largely Attended

The funeral of the late Anna Whit
ney, which occurred Wednesday after
noon at Mt. Gilead, was the largest
ever held in that village. Many Mt.
Vernon people were in attendance.
The services were conducted at the
home of the deceased on North Main
street at / o'clock. Members of the
Masons of Mt. Gilead and the Odd Eel
lows of the same place and members
of Clinton Commandery of Mt. Vernon
and Marion commandery attended in
a body.
The floral offerings were most beau
tiful and profuse. The emblems were
carried from the house to the ceme-
terry by members of the Masons and
Odd Fellows and it required 64 men
to carry the different emblems and
beautiful bouquets.
Business was suspended in the vii
lage of Mt. Gilead during the hours of
the funeral. Every business house
in the town was closed, even the tele-
phone Office.
The services at the cemetery were
under the auspices of the Scottish Rite
and Clinton Commandery of Mt Yer
non. During the Scottish Rite cere-
mony the 32 degree ring was present
ed to Mr.. Allen Whitney, the youngest
son of the deceased. The command
cry funeral services were conducted
by the officers of Clinton Commandery
Past Commander, o. Poppleton, acting
as prelate in mausoleum in the Mt.
Gilead cemetery.
