ABOUTTIME TO CHANGE

When a newspaper, posing as
a Democratic organ, continues to
misrepresent it's party to such an
extent that the officers of that
party have to take official action
against such paper, or it's policy;
when newspaper which circula-
tes freely among the people and
which should stand for the COM
mon welfare of that mass of read
ers goes so far as to condemn
preachers, the ministers of the
Gospel, for taking a legitimate
part in politics, we say, it is a.
bout time for a change.
The ARIZONA DEMOCRAT,
we are sorry to say, has labored
overt time opposing the Democrat
ic constitutional convention and
it's work. by making a donkey of
it's editorials in opposing the rat
ification of that document, it vii
flied the makeup of that body
and even personated many of it's
prominent members in the most
disgraceful manner capable of
pen; like the candle fly fitting
it's life away, it has spent it's
best time and effort fighting the
ARIZONA GAZETTE. Now the
DEMOCRAT is engaged in the
tremendous task of defending
the saloons of Phoenix; this the

gitimate right and surely a moral
right to do, provided, it is con-
scientious in this defense. But,
where on earth does the DEMO
Graf get it's right to say that
Preacher politicians are the
country's greatest enemies?
God be praised that the ministers
have entered politics. 1t has been
said that politics is too rotten for
preachers to mix up in, even too
rotton for self-respecting citizens
to inter into!
The following is what the
DEMOCRAT comes out with in
it's leading editorial Monday:
PREACHERS IN POLITICS
Preacher politicians and hypo-
critical newspapers are the coun-
try's greatest enemies. Both are
insincere, and play football with
public confidence. We listen to
this class rant and shrek about
the evils of saloons while right
before their eyes things are being
done daily that are more detri-
mental to the public welfare and
more destructive to society and
the home than all the saloons in
the universe. !"
The DEMOCRAT has certainly
strayed from the Democratic
principles, from the paths of
righteousness, forgotten the
mandates of the Author of its
EDITORS being, cares little for
posterity and nothing for self. It
forgets that the lamented Gar
field was a preacher in politics;
it cannot remember that the liv-
ing William j. Bryan, the worlds
greatest commoner, has occupied
some of the most exalted pull
pits in the land; that Grover Gle
veland was the son of a preacher
means nothing to the DEMO-
| GRAFT. And. hundreds of others
might be cited.
1t is useless to tell the DEMO
Graf that Preachers have been
driven into politics. In order to
protect the public morals and the
public welfare the ministers of
the Gospel have been forced to
enter the political arena as a mat
ter of self defense. The politics
of various parts of the country
has been run by the lawless, of
fees filled by law-breakers, and
the very safety of the home and
it's sanctity jeopardized till it
was high time that the preachers
should enter upon the political
field of battle.
Every minister of the Gospel,
as we'll as every self-respecting
citizen, owes it to himself, to pos
terltV. to his country and country
men and, last but not least. he
owes it to his Master in whose
vineyard he labors, to enter poll
tics at least to the extent of Sc
lecting men of manhood and hon.
est principles to make and ex-
ecute the laws Of the land.
ETERNAL VIGILANCE is THE
PRICE OF LIBERTY.
Vigilance will bring a change
in the ARIZONA DEMOCRAT.

EDUCATIONAL.
(BY c. W. MEISNEST.)

The teachers meeting at Centerville
last Saturday was one of the best held
this year. The attendance was not
very large due to the weather and poor
roads, but there was interest and much
life and discussion. Every topic was
well presented and followed by "a good
informal discussion. The debate was
especially well prepared and some en-
cellent arguments were advanced by
both sides. The affirmative won. A
factor which contributed great deal
to the success of this meeting was the
fact that all teachers on the program
were present except one. The follow
ing attended: Marie Gass, Alice Bra
dy, Frances Mccarthy, Mary Holfeltz,
Matilda Kelley, Ella Schneider, Lena
Geigel. Martha Pekarski, Frank Bush
man, Sophia Axley, John Clark, Christ
Schade, Mabel Sell, Josephine Schul-
te, Miss Schultz, Mr. Schultz, Miss

Good laws are passed and also poor
laws are passed. In fact nearly every
law is a material benefit to one class
and a detriment to another. Most laws
however are for the good of the ma
Jority. In order that good laws will
be passed the people must know and
understand the conditions and purposes
OF such laws. For this reason it be-
comes more necessary today for the
people to make a study of the govern
mental affairs. a few years ago the
people were to vote on an amendment
to the state constitution which would
make it possible to do away with the
state census. This census is wholly
unnecessary and is an extra expense.
The people not understanding it's pur-
pose are afraid to vote for ANYTHING
for fear it may be to their detriment.
number of things of similar nature.
misunderstood are often the cause of
much discussion, At present there is
a sort OF feeling among the farmers
against the "Income Tax Law" They
do not understand it. They think they
again are the ones that will suffer by
it. The fact is they are the ones if any
that will profit by such la*, as there
are very few farmers that will pay such
n tax.
These problems should be studied
and discussed by farmers in clubs or
ganlzed for that purpose. These farm
ers' clubs should be held in the school
houses. All kinds of subjects of inter-
est should be discussed. Then we can
talk and vote intelligently when called
upon to do so.
