Buy Christmas Gift. Now.


 This is good month to buy Christ made. SIX stockings are a favorite gift to girls and can be had for less now than in December. If, however. you find lovely ones in lace effects for almost nothing, remember that lace stockings are almost anrecognized now by fashionable women. and the favor ite is a sheer, thin silk with clocks or solid embroidery in self tones.
 You may be tempted again to get that feather boa which is so much cheaper than any you ever saw. Per haps you think it will be just the gift for the friend to whom you are under such obligations. A strict answer to the 'fWhyT' would reveal that feather boas are conspicuous by their absence just now. It is the purchase for some girl who does not keep to the top notch of style. but an embarrassment to the friend who does.
 Tn purchasing bargains for gifts go fin less for personal things than for dainty pieces of china. glass. silver or antiques that are much reduced 1t is an excellent time to buy wedding presents if there is an appalling array Of brides for the autumn
 Bits of jewelry. novel hatpins or bell buckles that are in good style now will be equally good at Christmas. The same cannot be said of neckwear and blouses. A pretty corset cover or combination and a fine nightdress will invariably make an acceptable gift

Diaz has done great work in Mex. leo, but he did it with an auto cratic power that even the emperor of Germany. with his cockish ideas, would not have dared assume. That 1t was necessary for the good of the republic is unprecedented. Diaz had great work to do and he did it the only way it could be done, and that was with an iron hand. But no man who is a despot has any com. plaint coming when he is displaced It is the memorable law of the world It will, however be no spasmodic uprising, a little fire here and a lit, tie smoke there. Nothing short of 2 burst Of flame over the whole country can displace a man like Diaz. The business interests of the ration are with him, life and. prop, erty were never so safe in Mexico as they are today. All this is due to the strong man at the head of a government where a strong man vas much needed.

PUBLIC OPINION AGAINST PRESS.

Says the Nogales oasis:-~Tho election upon the question of adop ton or rejection of the proposed constitution on the ninth of Febru- ary will be a significant object les son upon the boasted power of the press" With a large part of ''the press" dncluding all but three of the leading daily newspapers) op- posing and presenting many really strong and potent reasons why tho proposed fundamental law should be defeated the instrument will carry by a handsome majority. The peo- pie have made up their minds to try .he experiments the constitution em bodies. and they will trust to the hope entertained that even though the president and congress may ob- lemt to some of the features they Twill not crystalline their objection into official disapproval
 -'The Oasis finds prevalent the sentiment that having waited so long for statehood the people can wait, yet awhile rather than accept it in form they dislike.
 Nevertheless the Oasis believes the proposed constitution will not be to the welfare of Arizona. This journal is well aware that it's atti- tude is unpopular: but it has not hesitated in tie past in asking the unpopular side of public questions: nor does it hesitate now"

Evidence continues to accumulate that Arizona's constitution has no show of approval in Washington. It is well known in Arizona that the inclusion of the recall Of the judi ciary has endangered Arizona and statehood. The delegates in the convention had timely warning of this danger from Senator Bailey. democratic leader in the senate. but they refused to heed or listen 10 good advice given at home or in Washington. Statehood could be made certain by the elimination of this objectionable feature from the constitution and to afford an oppor- unity for this elimination many will vote against the constitution and we believe this is the quickest and sur est route to statehood which is so earnestly desired by our people.

Because Of his inactivity in the cause of statehood the Daily Globe is finding fault with Delegate Cam eron, who was championed so val iantly by Ally Cohn in 1908 when he was editing the Bisbee Evening Miner and shouting Cameron and statehood. Editor Cobn was Hoval A. Smiths right hand newspaper bower in the 1908 campaign. He slandered Mark Smith by day and by night and with fulsome praise he fawued at the feet of Cameron who was hailed as the Moses which was to lead -trizona out of the ter ritorial wilderness NOW listen at what this erstwhile republican edi- tor has to say of Mir. Cameron:
 If Delegate Cameron has ever said a word favorable to the constitution. it has not been recorded and if he has made any attempt to secure ap- proval in Washington, his press agent has neglected to inform his constituency.

Hon. Frank Hereford, prominent attorney and lifelong democrat of Tucson. in an interview in the Citi- zen declares his intention to vote against the constitution and gives his reasons for doing so.

It was to be expected that the newspapers of Phoenix would be up and doing as a result of the number |of population accredited to that city by the census bulletin sent out last week. The Republican fires the first gun and quotes school statistics 10 prove that the census enumerators only counted about one half of the people in the capital city. Says the Republican:
 Without reflection on the mach inery of the census bureau or tte honesty of the efforts of tho emu .merators, the result of the count so far as Phoenix is concerned is sn absurd as to be really humorous. It would be funny, at least, If lt were not so serious.
 -1I.4S4 people,
 Think of that as the population of a city wherein 3,20O children are in daily attendance at the various schools, public. private and parochial, which information was authorita lively secured yesterday. This is not the census figure showing thosa of school age, between 6 and 21. but the youngsters actually going to school. Can it be possible that out of every 100 people in this city 2s of them are actually going 10 school? Add to that percentage those who ought to be going to school and are not; those still of school age who have finished the local schools and cannot afford to go away to college. all the youngsters less than 6 years old who are playing around the hack yard, and they would nuraber at least 50 out of every 100, assuming that 2S out of a hundred actually here are actually going to school. There would be only five or six thou sand men and women left for the peoDling of the streets, the con duct of all the business Of the city, and the care and maintenance of the thousands of homes in Phoenix. 1t is to laugh"

ONLY ONE CHANGE REMAINS.

The time is drawing near for talk ing a vote on the ratification of the constitution or its rejection by the sespIs of the territory. AS has been stated before if it were known that the constitution would be ap- proved by he president and con gress tkere would be little opposi- tion ts it, although there is wide spread opposition to certain feat ures of the document, especially to the recall of judges. But daily the evidence Is piling higher and high CT against a possibility of the con stitutioR being approved in Washing ton, either by the president or con gress This condition is accepted as a fact. by a great many in the ter ritory who will vote no" on the coRstiuisH in he hope that if the present constitution is defeated here at home the convention, when re- convened under the enabling act pro vidiHg fer another session, will elim- mate those features of the consi- tion which are today threatening our chance sf statehood
 The people of Arizona want state hood; they would be willing to ac- cept statehood under the present constitution If they could get it; they would be willing to accept statehood without the recall features in the constitution, we believe.
 While good many political aspir- ants assume the position that they would rather surrender statehood than anything which has been writ ten in the constitution, these men do not represent the real sediment in Arizona, in our opinion, and if they succeed in wrecking statehood by their rule or ruin policy they will live to see the day when they will bitterly regret their action.
 This paper did what it could to elect the democratic delegates in this county, it did what 1t could, after their election. to point out 9 conservative action which would have made statehood certain and left ques tionabIe matters to be decided at a time when Arizona could have deter mined the questions of the recall

 Old and young. for pleasure and for profit, women are keeping shoulder to shoulder with men in their strenuous race for the successes that come from mighty effort. Whether in the field of business. philanthropy or athletic sports the race is to the swift
 For several years Miss Eleanor Sears has been accounted the most stren- nous and successful Of women in the all round athletic class. This favored Boston society girl handles the rib bons over thoroughbred horses with the best of the crack whips and drives her nnotorcar like professional chauffeur. She sails a boat with the best of them. plays tennis and makes wonderful drives on the golf links. Probably at this moment she is hay ing an aeroplane costume made for a ''Asppang" trip.
 Miss Sears has all the energy that should belong to youth and health. but more remarkable still Is the career of Mrs. Sarah Bolens, who, at eighty years of age, is a successful editor of paper at Port Washington. Wis. | She can generally be found in the edi- torisl rooms of her paper. the Star. and those in the office say that she knows more than any one else about its makeup.
 Mrs. Bolens is intellectually bright , and entertaining. Her memories of the early editors of Wisconsin are un- impaired. and she can tell interesting anecdotes of many of them.
 Stirring tales can Mrs. Bolens tell of her childhood days, when the wo- men wore mems clothes and carried rifles. During the civil war, while her husband, father and brothers were en- gagged in the war of the rebellion, Sally Bolens was publishing a news paper, and she became the official head of the Star upon the death of her bus band. position she is now filling. al- though iE her e:ghtieth year.
