THE SULLEh GIRL

The girl who thinks it fine thing to cultivate melancholy or sullen spirit. is missing her way in life and owes it to herself to try to find the right pathway as quickly as possible
 Sullenness is a distinctly unattrac- tive trait and the girl who is dis posed to acquire it should make eN- cry effort to throw it off. IL will bring her no friends and it will drive those she has from her The girl who expects tO get on in the world should cultivate a sunny disposition and an attractive manner.
 There is a certain type of girl who thinks it is a show of fine feeling to pout at everything in which mother opposes her and to make showing of sullen resentment every time she is crossed in anything. If such girls could only see themselves as others see them what a change would come over them, for no girl would want 10 appear as repellant as the actions of this type of girl paint her.
 The world always has welcome for the girl with the shining face and the cheerful voice. IL has no wel- come for the girl of beclouded brow and doleful voice. It is q rule of na- ture that most things run away from the gloomy and the doleful.
 The cheery girl goes through life winning friends by her good nature and holding them because she Is worth it. In winter time We love the fire for it's glow and sparkle. In this old world of ours we love the sun shine. the bright flowers, the bril- liantly plumed and sweet-voiced birds and we worship the girl who IS win some and good natured. She has a place in every heart and none can displace her She may pass out Of the range of our mortal vision, but she becomes enshrined among our sweetest memories and so lives on forever
 One must pity the girl who is so short sighted as to barter her smiles for frowns: her cheerfulness for the clouds of discontent and the sweet sympathy and love of others for her own gloomy thoughts. It is as if one gave up the sunshine and the beauty of 4 great summer day to live in q dark, damp cellar.
 
 people can give it. and especially those of it's young people. It's a dreary old place, but the cheerfulness of young people keeps it youthful and happy and bright And it is forum ate that for every girl who tries to be sullen and melancholy there are a hundred who are happy sprites. per petuating youth and sending its glow over all the world.
 So. little girl. make your own sun shine and make the sunshine Tor others while you may. The stern realities of mature life will soon enough bring the thoughtful brow and the wearied brain. Enjoy life while you may so that if the later portion of it be not so care free the remem- brance of the other happy days will keep your little corner bright and keep you from becoming grabbed and Solir woman.

Another Favor From Mir. Taft.

So rarely does the president of the United States permit himself 10 be quoted by any newspaper, that any departure from the rule is notable
 IL is therefore with deep apprecia- , ton of the favors shown to this paper and to Arizona by MT. Taft that we invite the attention of our readers 10 the fact that. twice within the past six months he has gone out of his way 10 oblige The Republican with direct statements.
 The first occasion was during the campaign for the constitutional con- vention. The question having arisen in the minds of many as to whether the president would approve a con- Stitution of the radical character pro- posed for Arizona. The Republican telegraphed 10 Mir. Taft. asking him to kindly forward any quotations from his speeches of former years which would indicate his attitude toward the initiative and referendum. It was assumed that he might have at hand some newspaper clippings which could be forwarded without inconvenience to himself Instead of sending clip pings. he took the trouble to have typewritten and sent to us certain 1a hK- him in Missouri and Oklahoma, in which he had taken strong ground against the principle of legislation by Initiative and referendum.
 The latest instance of his kind willingness to furnish to The Repub lican and the people of Arizona a statement of his position was shown in our columns yesterday.
 On the day before the president had granted an audience to certain citizens of Arizona for the purpose of saying something 10 them about the Arizona constitution. IL appeared to us that the reports published in Phoenix concerning that interview were entirely misleading. Whether there was a deliberate purpose to misrepresent what the president had said. We cid not and do not know. There was. however. plausi- bility in the theory that there was an effort by somebody to make it appear that Mir. Taft had indicated an intention to approve the consti- tution. when in fact he had said nothing to warrant such conclusion an effort to pave the way for say ing hereafter. in the event of disap- provaI. that MT. Taft had gone back on his word
 The danger that such an unfair purpose might be carried into effect led The Republican to telegraph to Mir Taft. through his secretary. for an exact statement of what he had said to the visitors from Arizona.
 That statement was graciously fur nished. by telegraph. and was in Phoenix closely upon the heels of the misleading publication.
 Hereafter, no matter what may De said for the purpose of saving the face" of some people, there can be no danger of the intelligent people of Arizona being misled as to what Mir. Taft did say.
 We do not deem it necessary to comment on the statement itself It speaks for itself. and is in MT Taft's characteristically plain English. The readers Of The Republican. at any rate. are intelligent enough to draw warrants.

ANDERSON FINDS
HIMSELF I'm BAD"
Ohio Member Is Unpopular
in His Party Ranks.

Only the watchfulness of the Demo
cratic leaders prevented serious row
over pension legislation in the House yes
terday. For some weeks there has been
trouble among the Democrats over the
Anderson pension bill. which proposes to
add fifty millions or SO to expenditures
on this account.
Yesterday Representative Anderson rose
in his place to discuss a question of per-
sonal privilege. He declared that state
ments had appeared in the public press
to the effect that in getting his bill be-
fore the House. "he acted in a sneaking
and fox-like manner"
Most of the House Democrats are vexed
with Anderson, who is of the ma
jority, because of his persistence in try
ing to force pension legislation, whereas
the party leaders had decreed that ac-
tion on this subject should be postponed
until the December session. Ander-
son charged that the report that he
'sneaked his bill onto the calendar was
inspired by his party associates. Ander-
son is ambitious to be governor Of Ohio.
Il want to say" shouted Anderson,
that I am proud am a Democrat, but
I'm not proud of all Democrats" This
sentiment was jeered by the Democrats
and applauded by the Republicans

The Next Naval Budget.

The General Board of the Navy has
prepared a programme for four battle
ships, sixteen torpedo-boat destroyers,
and a proportionate number of other
craft, to be submitted to Congress at
the next regular session. 1t does not
appear likely that this elaborate pro-
gramme will receive Congressional sane
ton AS a matter of fact, it may be
taken for granted that the navy will have
difficulty in obtaining even one addi-
tional ship from Congress. The men,
bers pledged to rigid economy and those
who believe that the naval establish
ment is already too expensive are sufi
ciently numerous to make trouble for
the next naval appropriation bill.
The reason advanced for the proposed
increase is that by 1914 number of
the present frst-class battle ships will
have to be consigned to the second line,
owing to the rapidity with which inn
provements have been made in recent
years in naval construction, naval gum
merry, and naval machinery. Ships de-
signed about ten years ago, though still
sound and seaworthy, have become al
most obsolete since the advent of the
Dreadnought type. 1t is open to ques-
tion, however, whether the American
people will consent to continue keeping
pace with the modern craze for naval
expansion at such cost. Does it appear
sound sense to expend ten or twelve
million dollars on ship that in
little more than another ten years is
almost sure to lose its usefulness
as fighting uniti There ought to be
limit to such expenditure. From the
standpoint of the economists in Con-
gress, this is sound reasoning.
Besides which, what is the necessity
for all these ships if we are on the
eve of universal arbitrationi :.

The New Traffic Regulations.

When the Commissioners adopt the
regulations for street traffic prepared by
Mr.. William P. Emo and which Maj.
Sylvester has sent to them for approval,
Washington will find itself as well ad-
vanced in orderly street traffic as New
York or Paris. Mr.. Enos new regu-
lations greatly simplify the present code
of police orders governing vehicles using
the streets. He is an authority, as he
has drawn the traffic rules for New
York, Paris, and other large cities.
Much of the value of Mr.. Eno's sug-
gestions will be lost unless they receive
the wide publicity which he bespeaks
for them. He made it point to con-
vince the Board of Trade that publicity
in other cities had brought about more
orderly and safer street traffic These
regulations are so worded as to be
easily and quickly understood, and
should be known to every person who
uses any sort of vehicle on the streets
of the city. Sufficient copies of the
new code should be printed in convent
ent form to afford everybody knowl-
edge of the law
With simple regulations universally
understood, the risk of congestion or &C
cident on the streets will be reduced to
a minimum

An 0ld-age Pension.

Not because there is any possibility
of its enactment into law. but because
ii presents i'll concrete form the social
istlc idea, we beg leave to announce that
Mr.. Victor L. Berger, Socialist men,
Der of Congress, has introduced an old
age-pension bill. 1t provides basic
pension of 81 week for every person
over sixty years old, but as incomes
are to be taken into consideration,
and as husband and wife are not to be
regarded as two persons, but as one
person and half, Mr. Berger esti-
mates that the average pension will be
$3.50 per week for 2,675,ooo persons,
thus bringing the cost of the pension
scheme to 100000 a year
To an ordinary person, this large
amount would seem prohibitive. Mr..
Berger, however, argues that if the gov
ernment can pay $I3I,ooo,ooo for navy,
So5,ooo,ooo for an army, and SI55.ooo.ooo
for pensioning war veterans, total of
Si'8I 100000, it should certainly be able
to pay an equal sum to pension its vet
Grams of industry. In fact, according to
Mr.. Berger, when the vast sum that is
expended in caring for the destitute in
an inefficient, expensive, and cruel way"
IS taken into consideration, the total
amount involved in his scheme seems to
him quite reasonable. He says, too, that
old-age-pension laws have been passed
by Germany, Denmark, Italy, Austria,
Great Britain, France, Canada, Austria
liza. ard New Zealand, and he cannot un-
derstand why the United States should
be laggard in well-doing.
And then, in order to be certain that
the Supreme Court will not declare his
law invalid, if it shall pass, he expressly
provides that it is not to be subject to
judicial review. In this he follows the
precedent set by Congress in 1868, when
il passed law prohibiting the Supreme
Court from passing on the constitution
ality of the reconstruction law enacted
after the civil war. This law was passed
over President Johnson's veto. The Su-
prcme Court, Mr.. Berger says, has rec
osnized that It's jurisdiction must be
granted By Congress, So there 10 the

Tariff Revision.

This is a curious country. One year
we are for protection, pure and simple.
Another year we are for tariff revision.
We swing the pendulum from one side
TO the other.
Just now the sentiment is decidedly
in favor of lower tariff. The poll of
the Chicago Tribune, in which the edi-
tors of the West declare by large
majority for a reduction of duties,
proves conclusively the state of public
feeling. 1t is a sentiment which has
been slowly developing and had its ori-
gin in the belief that the high tariff has
fostered monopolistic combinations, has
increased the cost of living. has made
millionaires OF the few at the expense
of the many No matter what the
cause, the effect is plain. No party can
win at the polls which does not promise
a substantial reduction in tariff rates.
With the popular demand for lower
duties so unmistakably demonstrated, it
is no wonder that the Western papers,
independent of political conviction, are
calling upon the President to sign the
wool bill "In our opinion" says the
indianapolis News, he ought to sign
it and be glad of an opportunity TO do
so. 1t deals with a schedule which
he has said is 'indefensible The News
thinks. too. that when the bill reaches
the President the country will thorough
ly appreciate the fact that upon him
will rest the responsibility for giving
the people some relief from the burden
Of taxation This is the opinion gener-
ally expressed in the Western newspa-
pers In the East, the Newark Star
counsels the President that if he refuses
to sign the bill he will be walking into
Z pitfall set for him by those who have
not the interest of the people or of his
administration at heart.
There is no doubt that the country at
large fully realizes the importance of
the situation in Washington. 1t fails
to appreciate, however, that through
Democratic dissension the bill may not
reach the President This is a con-
tingency which outside OF Washington

ure he derives from meeting and mix
ing with the man on the street" are
well known, but an occurrence has
Just come to light which emphasizes
this delightful side Of Mr.. Taft's char
acter.
One Sunday afternoon recently. 1t
was learned to-day, the President
slipped away from the humdrum of Of
ficial affairs at the White House. Wis
tied Washington newspaper reporters

ing the owner. and spent the afternoon
sitting on the front porch. chatting
with the farmer, his wife, and their
neighbors. drinking milk. viewing the
cows and crops. and sympathizing with
a yellow pup that had lost the use of
both hind legs.
William P. Price, a reporter on a To-
cal paper. whose work brings him into
contact frequently with the President,
is the farmer" On this particular
Sunday afternoon Mr.. Prices neighbors
on the east had dropped in to have a
little talk. So also had the folks who
run the farm on the west. All, includ-
ing William himself, were seated on
the front porch.
The reporter-farmer was coatless,
his shirt unbuttoned at the neck and
flung open to the breezes. One gallus
was where It ought to be and the other
dangled at his side Home-knit bath
slippers were on his feet.
The visiting neighbors were also
dressed for comfort. The COW had just
been tethered in the front yard, the
yaller dog with the paralyzed legs was
bowling mournfully. the guinea hens
were crying alarm at hawk, and two
youngsters were seated on posts at the
entrance munching bread and butter
with generous coat OF brown sugar,
when big automobile drew I'D at the
gate.
In 1t besides the driver were a tall,
pleasant looking young man with a mill
tary carriage and a much heavier figure
garbed IN long gray duster, a soft gray
cap and goggles. The big man in the
duster climbed out, and, followed by his
companion, started up the pathway. The
barefoot boys on the fence were curious

By that time Farmer Price lad reco1-

Presidents side. Mr.. Taft announced
that he had Just run out to look over the
farm and get away from official life for
a while.
Es orted to the porcn he was intro
'duced to Farmer Prices wife and all the
neighbors, and settling himself in a COM
Portable armchair he laughed and chatted
for an hour or more. He refused to listen
to apologies from the Price family over
the personal appearance of its head and
insisted that Farmer Bill should continue
in farmer attire.
The President noted that corn in that
section OF the country was large and
strong in stalk. but small and weak In
ear. Obviously the early wet weather
had got in its work. The beans, however,
seemed absolutely free from rust and

President talked about almost everything
except politics and craftsmanship. He
found time between words TO sip a re-
freshing glass or so of ice cold milk.
He inspected the Jersey COW in the front
yard, eulogized the spring broilers, look
ed over the farm when he got tired OF
sitting and finally inquired what in the
world made the yellow dog howl all the
time.
He hasn't any hind legs" replied
Farmer Price. The President upon in
vestigating for himself found that the
dog had legs, but they were paralyzed.
His farmer host informed him that he
had found the dog on the street and feel
ing sorry had taken it home to be nursed-
When the President returned to the
White House he told several of his friends
he had enjoyed himself immensely. The
most interesting thing about this incl
dent, though, is that 1t took q week or
two before it became generally known IN
Washington, and the details came out
only through comments that the Presi-
dent had made to friends. There was a
time at the White House within easy
memory when such an excursion would
have been announced long in advance
and photographers would have received
especial invitation.
