COMPETITION.
TOMBSTONE.

Life: It is often heard these days that competition is a thing of the past. With one or two exceptions this is true. Among the more impor- tant exceptions may be mentioned the following:
 The competition between employ and consumer.
 The competition ebtween employ CTS and employees.
 The competition between new rich and old rich for social supremacy and vulgar display.
 The competition between newspa- pers to see which can publish the most trivial matter.
 The competition between organized and unorganized labor for jobs which are too few in number for all.
 The competition between vital lit eTature and ephemeral best sellers.
 The competition between morals and greed to see which shall dom inate the lives of the rich.

STRIFE AT GLOBE
 STATEMENTS ISSUE
Matters Are Recovered From the "AbySm" of MuSty
 Past

That internecine war at Globe still rages. The editors of the Sil- yer Belt and the GIobe-D Democrat Opposing the candidacy of Mir. Hunt for governor, the Globe alone sup porting him. have issued a state ment denying an assertion alleged to have been made by MT. Hunt at Phoe- nix in which he said he had been threatened with exposure. This state ment includes a brief record of the newspaper situation there, and is signed by Joe Chisholm of the Sil- yer Belt and George II. Clements of the GIobe-Democrat.
 It is followed by another, signed by Mir. Chisholm alone, relating to the earlier career of Mir. Hunt.
 Mir. Hunts statement in an inter view in the Arizona Gazette, Septem- Der 9, 1911, reading: "One Of these Globe papers (referring to the Silver Belt and Globe DemCcrat) published the fact that I used to be a waiter when ! first came to Globe" is an unqualified lie. When MT Hunt was at Phoenix, presiding as president of the constitutional convention, the writer was editor of the Daily Globe whose plant was owned by Mir. Hun; and associates. The Daily Globe was supporting Mir Hunt heartily. OctO Der l6 the writer received the fol lowing communication from Mir Hunt: MT. Joe Chisholm: You may wish to publish the enclosed clipping from a Phoenix paper" The clipping which the writer published, as peI NIT, Hunts request, the following day October Y. 1910. read as follows:
 An interesting scrap of informa ton from the backward and abysm o time concerning the president of the constitutional convention. is furnish ed by R. A. Windes. for years a Bap tist minister at various points in the territory, who believes the delegates chose wisely when they selected Hunt His interest in Hunt date' back twenty-six years, when he wal engaged in establishing the frs Baptist church built in Globe.

CLOTHES AT COST.

(Mary Worst in "Success.")
 The one place in which we can find with any accuracy how much clothes actually cost is in the reports of the United States government, in which it is told how much the soldiers have tc pay for their clothes. Here alone our feet are upon solid earth concern ing the price of clothes.
 The soldiers of the United States army wear g0od ciothes-that is, clothes suitable for the purpose for which they are designed, and clothes that with ordinary protection will stand a great deal of wear and yet continue 10 look good.
 The new olive-drab woolen uni form consisting of brooches and tu- mic costs the soldier SS.46: S52S for his coat and $31S for his brooches. His linen collar costs him cents. His woolen olive-drab gloves cost 37 cents His canvas puttees cost him 66 cents, and he can buy woolen nit tens for 30 cents and oyeralls for 57 cents His stockings cost him as fol- lows: Cotton, 8 cents; heavy woolen, 21 cents: light wOolen, 14 cents. His dress trousers of 22 ounce kersey at 52.3O yard, costs $3.03. and his of the same material is $j.7G. costs s3.03, and his dress coat To pays for his khaki brooches S1.37 and for his khaki service coat s1.58. His chambray shirt is 52 cents. the olive-drab flannel shirt S294 and the muslin only g1 cents.
 The most expensive item or all his equipment is his olive oyercoat, which costs him S1511. These clothes are sold to the soldier at cost plus a very tiny price which the govern ment has to pay for storage, and in the case Of the organized militia with the cost Of packing added

But since the fly has come to be A pestilent and willy foe, They pay the kids a good big fee, And on a swatting trip they go. The land is filled with swatters bold; They swat and swat and victims

 But every one that turns up cold, Finds in his place another fly. Have flies become our deadly foe, Or our opinions changed, we pray Did they kin germs decades ago Or carry, as they do today?

rimE FOE CLEAR THINKING.

Des Moines Register and Leader: In a book addressed to farmers, John Lee Coulter, professor of rural econ cnics in the University of Mime sota and expert at Washington in taking the census of agriculture, makes the following statement:
 Tt is true that we have a tariff wall to keep out foreign grain, but it has not helped the. farmers of this country to the extent of the price or the Iaper on which the law is writ ten. There is no reason to believe that this country would have import ed grain of any kind during the last 75 years without a tariff wall ln- deed. this country exports something like o5.000,000 worth of grain and grain products during an average year. The only importation would be from Canada, and grain from that country merely passes through the United States on its way 10 Europe The fact that it dces pass through this country enriehes our transporta- ticn companies, and our millers who grind the grain into finished prod ucts. whereas it affects the price of products here very slightly. if at all

HuRRAH FOR CANNON.

Louisville Courier Journal: The Courier-Journal has always viewed with pleasure the renominaaion of Joseph c Cannon as Republican can didate for representative of the 18th district in Illinois, and trusts that it may have that pleasure again this year.
 MT. Cannon in making his an nouncement waded into the ranks Of insurgency with a meat ax upon his shoulder and laid about him hand somely. The field was tloOdy and the smaller domestic animals were swimming for knolls when he finish ed. MT. Cannon said that he had been @ Republican for forty years-or since the deluge or something Of that kiud-and that be had not pro gressed or jnsurged or 'ismed' in any way whatsoever, but had been a plain. unvarnished type Of straight Republican since Heck was a pup and for some time prior to the advent of the litter to which Heck belonged. He is running on his record, and upon high speed, taking grades like a thirsty man takes beer, and cutting a hole in the atmosphere that can be seen with the naked eye.
 While disagreeing with NIT. Can. non that the exclusive purpose Of the tariff bills passed by the Demo crats was making campaign material . all observers must agree that with a urotectionist president in the White House there was 10 chance that a tariff bill revising one or more of the sacred schedules downward would live long enough to be of any serv- ice in any other way. We can sym pathize with Mir Cannon, a staunch . and everlasting Republican, for feel ing unkindly toward such bills and their makers on account of the en orruous amount oi campaign mater. jal the bills in continuation with the presidents veto. which the insur' gents have made. And 1t is i'm ! possible not to commend the con sisteucv of Mir Cannon as a Repub lican. wuen he warmly comments the presidents yetOes after hotly con demniHg the bills.
 Mir Cannon has never been a shil ly-shallying type of Republican. HN has always been frankly in favor o special privilege. and the devil monk has he been even when Othel party leaders were sickest. He ha. thought and fought for forty year: just as President Taft has vetoed re

Taking an interest in the lad, Windes learned that the man was George W. F. Hunt. He has kept track of him ever since as he has gradually forged to the front.

.ANTI-PRIMARY PROTEST
 CITIZENS OF PRESCOTT
Believe Form of Petition Works Violation of Australian
 Ballot Law

Citizens of Prescott have made a strong protest against a number of direct primary petitions now be- ing circulated. Signers claim that many friends are presenting petitions which they must either sign or offend the candidate presenting them.
 It often happens that the signers are aware that a more able candidate intends to enter the field and by signing the first petition presented they are forced to vote for the can didate therein mentioned while they may actually prefer to vote for a candidate who will be on the ticket but who has not yet had an oppor- tunity to present. his petition. The official form of petition says and l further declare that l have not signed and will not sign any petition or nomination papers for any other person for said office at the next en- suing election. and hereby declare that l intend to support the candi- date above named for the office here in mentioned"
 If 1t said lat the direct primary" it would change the whole thing but in stead it says, support for the office herein mentioned"
 On the back of the petition the seal and signature of a notary public ap- ! pears The notary attests that the above named nominee knows that the signers are electors in the given pre- cinct that they realize the purpose Of the petition, that they signed on the date given and that affiant intends to support the candidate therein named. The purpose of the Australian ballot is to give to each voter the right to i vote according to his swn feeling in the matter without let or hindrance and with absolute secrecy. By sign ing the direct primary petition this voter agrees to vote for a given can didate and even goes further; he makes contract by signing the pc tition worded as 1t is-because if he does net vote for the candidate whose petition he signed he is committing perjury.
 It one signer chances to sign a pc tition for every office, and the ac tivity being shown by the candidates in the field at the present time leads one to believe that this is by nc means a wild theory, and the candi dates whose petitions he signed are nominated for the office that signel will go to the polls with a list of mer for whom he must vote regardless oi the fact that developments during the campaign may have caused him tC suffer an absolute change of opinion In other words he is forced to vote for a man whom he may know to bt absolutely unritted for the office tC which he aspires According to the wording of the petition the voter does not even have the right to re fuse to vote because he has signed his name to paper wherein it is stated that he intends to support this candidate
 Although no election has as yei been held under the direct primary law it can be seen that the people are . already tired Of a law which force: them to declare their affiliations and causes them to sign numerous pc titions rather than offend the can didate presenting the petition. Th' value of the Australian ballot is gone under the new law. 4 man must de clare how he will vote a month be . fore the holding of the election.
