H. |. Latham for State Senate.

Mir. II. l. Latham, republican can didate for state senator is probably one Of the best known men on either ticket.
 He has been one of the best boost CTS that Phoenix and the county has ever had. His bringing homeseekers and investors is too well known and appreciated by the people of this county to need any comment He is making his campaign on strictly busi- ness lines, believing his work in the valley has of necessity better ac- quainted him with the needs of the county. thus better qualifying him for the office he seeks, than either of his opponents.
 He is not making a lot of cheap, political promises for the purpose of getting votes The one promise and the only one he makes is that when elected he will serve the whole peo- pie of Maricopa county to the very best of his ability. and he will be absolutely non- partisan in his action.

The School Question.

The educational standing Of the schools of Maricopa county will be on a par with the best schools of the United States under the supervision and direction of Mir. Homer Davis, candidate on the Republican ticket for county school superintendent
 He is a man whose educational training has especially fitted him for this work and his several years eX- perience as a teacher in the schools here places him in position to know just what is needed for their better ment
 Mir Davis is strong believer in ,he initiative and referendum and in his speeches throughout the county is pointing out the necessity of i'm proving the standing Of our schools in order that the successors of the present voters may be capable of intelligently and properly handling the future prosperity Of our state.
 It is impossible to too highly com mend the candidates ability which gives him the superior claim for the office over his opponent.

The Double Cross.

When the twenty-third legislature met in Phoenix. Hunt of Gila and Steve Roemer of Cochise were rivals for the presidency of the council. Hunt wanted the place so badly that he agreed it is said with Roemer that if he CRoemer) would withdraw from the race he could have for his friends in COchise the patronage which naturally would go to Hunt Roemer who would rather see his friends drawing pay as clerks, door, keepers. sergeants- at arms, etc, than to have the empty honor of the presidency of the council agreed to the trade and to get that empty honor Hunt double crossed the men in Gila who had worked for him and elected him. Ask the men in Globe. Miami. Roosevelt, Payson and other precincts of Gila county who were turned down by Hunt that winter on the plea that there were not so many cierkships or other jobs as usual owing to wave of economy and for that reason he could not keep his promise.

For Better Reads.

This has been the slogan for scv- era. years in Maricopa county but be- cause of the fact that the proper man has never been in charge of this important work it has never been accomplished.
 The republican candidate for road superintendent, Mir. Oscar Roberts. is a man for the place. He knows every road in Maricopa county; his experience in breaking buggy springs while driving over them has i'm pressed him of the necessity of their improvement and he promises that their improvement will be started by him the day after election, and we all know that he means what he says.

The Corporation Commission.

Arizona should have on the cor poration commission men who are on record as progressives.-The Phoenix Gazette. Arizona should have on the corporation commission men who who have a practical knowledge of the duties of the office to which they are elected and who will see that the corporations, who are build ing the railroads, developing the mines and in other ways giving em- ployment to labor and making of Arizona a great state, are given square deal safe guarding at the same time the best interests of the people. E. S DePass. w. s. Stur- ges and F. NJ Pool the republican nominees for the corporation com mission are men of the kind named men who are believed in by cspi- talists and by the people at large, practical men rather than doctrinaries or professional progressives.

 "Old age pensions are assured to all honest working people. The pension fund being obtained by tax, is shared equally by employer and em ploye. It is owing to this law that no person engaged in earning a live lihood is permitted to escape the pay ment of some tax
 Throughout Germany one finds the villages closely interspersed. The church. with it's impressive spire. is visible at a distance and it must be poor district or village that cannot boast of a monument Monuments in memory of Bismarck, the founder of the empire, and to its first emperor, can be counted by many hundreds, while those in honor of Schiller. Goethe. Leasing. Mozart and Wagner are to be found by the score.
 The same pronounced eXaction for | holding public office in the national government is reflected in the mag nificent conduct displayed in munici- pal affairs. The orderly and clcanly condition of the cities display remark able executive supervision and ability in their administrations. Strange to say, in many cases the mayor of the larger cities is not a native of said city. The mayors of the cities are men schooled and trained for the po- sition. They are not elected by popu- lar vote. but appointed by the assem- blv to serve as the executive head of burgomeister. Successful examples of municipal ownership are demOnstrat- ed in a number of the large cities.
 In the course of time the many characteristics of German customs, habits and their thorough regulation in all matters will gain stronger foothold in our beloved land. duly called Gods country" Personal lib- erty is untrammeled in this monarchy and the art of combining labor and pleasure is mastered by it's people While we are the greatest nation of them all and have the finest country.

Twenty-Five dollars for protection is the way the republican county committee put it up to the Phoe- nix saloons-Arizona Democrat.
 This is probably the silliest un- truth that so far has been born in the muddled mind of the Democrat. Of course there is not word of truth in it: but how the Democrat expects to insult the intelligence of the pub lie in this manner and get away with it is one of the mysteries that prob ably never will be explained. But then the fantastic mental Gyrations of the odorous Democrat have to be accepted by the public along with other nuisances for which there seems to be no remedy.

Those Washinoton Trims.

George w. P. Hunt made three trips to Washington at his own ex- pense while the statehood bill was pending. His opponent opposed the constitution and refused to affix his signature to it. Who is the better man for governor of Arizona ?-Phoe- nix Gazette.
 George w. P. Hunt made three trips to Washington but not at his own expense. It is too bad to be obliged. in the interests of strict truth, to mar the picture. but the fact is that the people of Globe made up a purse of $500 with which to pay the expenses of G. w. P. the only time he was ever sent to Wash ington to secure statehood" At that time two Phoenix men bent ington, having their expenses paid by popular contributions.
 Mir Hunt made two other trips to the east to buy goods for his store and on his way to the market stop ped for day or two at Washing ton. IL is a safe proposition that the records of the Old Dominion Commercial Company will show that MT. Hunts expenses on these trips were paid, not by Mir. Hunt. but by the old Dominion company.

AS A GERMAN SEES
 FATHERLANO

otto F. Stifel who went abroad about about eight months ago. because of his wife's illness. returned to St. Louis recently. says the Globe Demo- crat. Mir. Stifel said on the subject of his European trip:
 Upon ones arrival in Bremen. Ger many. an atmosphere of cheerfulness greets you. The houses all appear to be in a spick and span condition. the streets extraordinarily cleanly and the parks well kept The fondness of the Germans for flowers is perceptible everywhere, for at every home. from you see flowers decorating the win dows The picturesqueness of the various sections in city due to the harmonious architecture. immediately impresses the American And upon investigation one finds that this is due to the fact that no buildings are permitted to be erected without off cial approval of the plan and design the builder desires to use. The city halls of the large cities are cXcep- tionally attractive and designed upon
 
 The beautiful roads through the rural districts in Germany. lined with fruit trees on both sides for hundreds of miles, are a source of comfort in hot weather to the tourists and add most materially to the picturesque ness of the country. IL Is rare occurrence for q complaint to he made that anyone has attempted to steal the fruit. clearly demonstrating the respect the Germans have for law and order The absence of beggars in Germany indicates to the tourist that the country has few idle people. Most of the young business men speak three or four lanuagcs. Banks have branches in all foreign countries encouraging commerce and trade for their citizens. The American banker. manufacturer and merchant is not keeping pace, l fear.
 Tt soon becomes quite clear why the German has developed such a pro- nounced fondness for music, admlra- tion for art, devotion to literature and history Cheap publications, with eX- cellent binding of classical literature are to be had at all book stores. AL most every city has it's municipal op- era or playhouses. where extremely nominal charges of admission are made. thereby enabling the pOrest peo- ple to hear the best in opera or drama.
 "The German nation considers the stage the popular school of instruc- tion. and the best shrine to worship the goddess of music and literature The Imperial opera house in Wiesba- den is conducted at loss of half million marks yearly.
 "The national government has Tor years exercised control and super vision of the forests. Excellent driNe- ways and walks intertwine them avervyhere On the peaks of the hills Iookout towers are erected; seats and benches are found for the comfort of the weary.
 .The German and his family look forward to their Sunday with great rejoicing. as it appears that everyone, from the smallest to the eldest mem- har turns out on Sunday for stroll through the woods and into the country.
 "Great care and attention are de- voted by the government to the asH- cultural department. The breeding oi cattle and horses is held under strict as, control The killing of cattle IS permitted only in municipal slaughter

Why Not?

The half million or more dollars throughout the country. to be used for the defense of the McNanaras, should be placed in trust as a fund to support the widows and orphans of the 2l victims of the Times ex- plosion. If such course was taken it would be a move in the right di- rection It would prove to the aver age mind that the unions as a peo- ple do not approve of crime. lt should be remembered that four If the victims were union men and were carrying union cards.

As to Mir. Steffens.

IL would be extremely interesting to know just how Lincoln Steffens got to" the press correspondents at Los Angeles who were reporting the McNamara trial When some of the stories went out from that city it was a little difficult to decide whether Steffens didn't have more to do with that all important event than did anybody else.
 The truth of the matter is that Steffens had about as much to do with the confessions of these two monumental criminals as had the Sultan of Sulu. The whole story is told by District Attorney John D. Fredericks in a few terse sentences. We had the proof-the absolute proof" said MT Fredericks. These men knew they would be convicted and they pleaded guilty to save their lives"
 And that's all there is to it.
 Steffens was simply doing d clever bit of personal press agent business. Just how his fight on what he calls big business had anything to do with these pleas of guilty will be a little difficult to understand
 And how Lincoln Steffens has the monumental nerve to come forward and claim credit for the outcome of more to put down anarchism than anything that has happened in this country in fifty years-when he him. self through much of his magazine work. has been consistently stirring mp a spirit of retaliation. reprisal, and violence. is past finding out.
 Steffens was rather unfortunate in referring tc the city of Toledo as a Golden Rule city. IL was in Tole- do that the dynamiters held some of their meetings Toledo is universally recognized among the fraternity of the underworld as the one city in the United States where a crook may live in absolute safety
 It is not so long since Mir. Stef- fens wrote defense of Gene Debs. And since the McNamaras were ar rested Debs has been writing and publishing firebrand articles declar- ing that capitalists were in a con- spiracy to murder the McNamaras because they are laboring men.
 Mir. Steffens succeeded in impos- ing upon the press correspondents, but he will hardly impose upon the public It was bit of press agent genius to inject himself so prOmi- nently into the affair; but the fact is that the McNamaras. guilty of q score of murders. gave up to save their lives
 To use Q slang expression these men. like all criminals. have q very well developed yellow streak. And it was that yellow streak that impelled the pleas of guity-not MT. Lincoln Steffens.

The success of the men running on the so-called democratic ticket this year will mean a continuation of the business depression from which Ariz- ona is now suffering and which set in a year ago when the radicals cap tured the democratic party and be- gan to drive capital from the state bv threats. Hunt and Ashurst fright ened by the havoc they have wrought have begun to hedge by promising to be good and give capital square deal but capitalists fear them still and put no faith in their promises.
