is not to play politics"
In short the Democrats of the House
from the Speaker down, have enter
ed deliberately and conscientiously
upon the work of giving a true voice
to the peoples desires. No questions
of party expediency or partisan ad-
vantage will be allowed to swerve
them from their course They will
rely upon the people to recognize and
reward an honest and sincere effort
to serve them.
With the growth and extension of
independent voting, so marked in re-
cent years. this policy is sure to meet
with hearty approval.
One feature of the work inaugural
ed by the Democratic House is fraught
with unlimited possibilities. 1 refer
to the earnest and thorough series of
Investigations now in progress. EV-
cry Department of the Government
will have to pass under the careful
and intelligent scrutiny of an active
Committee of Congress. Committees
which have in the past been idle and
dormant are now at work, laying bare
the accumulated abuses grown up,
through a long lease of apparent Sc
curity.
In addition to these regular Com
mitteeS of Congress, special lnVest1-
eating committees have been appoint
ed to probe the inner workings of the
big industrial combines that have long
threatened the peace and welfare of
the people. Resolutions calling for
these Investigations have been intro
duced in every Congress for years, but
when the Republicans were in power
these resolutions one and all, were
referred to committees controlled by
the Speaker, and they laid dormant
and were never reported.
Thus at this date it appears prob
able that the great Democratic party
will enter upon the campaign of 1912,
with not only a splendid record Of
achievement, but also with a complete
disclosure of Republican inaction, mis-
rule and positive proof of Republican
connivance with the union of big bus
mess and politics.
And what about the Republican par
ty and it's organization?
I think it may safely be said that
never was that party more completely
With the insurgent Republican Sena-
tors, led by Senator LaFollette, in
open revolt against the ''old guard
and with twentyfour (2D progressive
Republicans in the House voting with
the Democrats on a tariff bill, it
seems that the great party of Nc
Kinley and Hanna had been brought
near to the brink Of the precipice.
Our Republican friends are decided
hope, that something will turn up
to help them out Of a sorry predica-
ment.
Democratic sentiment goes on apace,
and bids fair to produce an avalanche
of votes for the Democratic standard
bearer in 1912, that has not fell to
the lot of any party in a generation.

Currency In China,

Writing from the interior of China, q
traveller says: Currency is primitive
to degree. Lump silver only is used
and copper cash. Coined money is
not current. Even in Honan city,
which is distant only two days by raj:
from Pekin. lump silver, the same cum
brous currency that has been used for
centuries. is still employed. 1t is cut
into small pieces by hammer and CHS
ell. Every town and village has its
own weights and scales. and there is
no pretense at Uniformity"

PRESENT STATUS OF
THE WOODEN MILLS
Work Is Expected to Begin on Them
Early in the Fall.

Many inquiries have been made re-
Gently regarding the present status of
the wooden mills project. which ex-
cited so much comment here and else
where in the valley a few months ago.
At that time it was the understanding
that if Tempe kept its terms of the
contract, the mills would be in opera
ton here this summer. 1t is explained.
however, by F. w WOodring, the gen.
tleman who entered into the contract
with the Tempe people, that owing to
the lateness Of the season, his people
concluded il unWise to try and move
the factory before fall. He gives as
surance, however, that things will be
moving early in the fall.
". J. Kingsbury has recently had
several letters from Mr.. Woodring
bearing on the subject and the follow
ing is an extract from one Of them:
I presume you think | am rather
slow in writing you and letting you
know how matters are coming along in
the wooden mill business have in
tended to write you for some time, but
have delayed on account of having to-
attend to other outside matters on my
return home. Everything is progress
ing nicely but l hardly think we will
try to get things started before fall as
my people figure that il is entirely too
late to try to do anything at once, and
they also want to work up the raw ma
terial on hand before they start dis
mantling their machinery preparatory
to moving. Rest assured that every
thing is coming along all right"
Mr.. WoOdring is at present making
his headquarters in Chicago.

Mrs. Harriet Lamb, who has been

spread that she had passed away.
This proved to be a mistake. though
it was feared for time that she

a large sized deal, which has been
pending for some time, was finally
closed Friday when r. J. Schweppe sold
To L. L. Harmon the Martinez range
near Congress. Mr.. Schweppe bought
the range from Wayne Ritter about a
year ago and has made a neat little
profit off it. SO well pleased is he
with the success of his venture, the
prospects are that he will not be out
of the cow business long. The new
range Mr.. Harmon has added To his
list is regarded as one of the best In
that section of the country. the cattle
on it being of an exceptionally high

1T WAS A BIG GUN.

a few days since George Taylor,
the ranchman and cattle grower. was
introduced to the largest gun he ev-
er saw, or so at least, it looked to
him. Mr.. Taylor is not accustomed
to looking down the barrel of a gun
when it is pointed i'm his direction,
which perhaps accounts for the in
creased dimensions of the one in
question. a man from Texas held
the tame end Of the gun and George
was looking at the business end. The
affair grew out of a misunderstood
ing over some business transaction
So far no arrests have been made.

GREEN EYED PREJUDICE.
Editor Served With Meal. but Denied
Glass of Water

A prominent Afro American editor
in New York city. who resides In
Brooklyn. was recently refused "A glass
Of water in connection with his dinner
In the restaurant at Fulton and Bridge
streets, Brooklyn. After requesting n
glass of water several times and not
receiving it he called the waiter again
and asked for certain dessert and
glass of water. The waiter brought
the dessert. but still refused to bring
the much asked for beverage.
The editor refused to pay for the
dessert as charged in the bill. as he
did not eat 1t because. as he claims.
his order was not filed. The walter
endeavored to impress the diner with
his authority. but was beaten at his
own game. as he was told that he
could get his pay for the dessert per
haps by taking the matter to the
courts. AT this juncture the editor
paid for what he had eaten and left
the dessert untouched upon the table
and walked out OF the establishment.
This is green eyed prejudice Of the
deepest dye.
