The Senate resolution in- troduced by Senator Works of Californinia ext te Il d 1 n 2 the presidential term from 4 to 6 years and prohibiting a second term IS receiving warm and universial support from busi- ness men and voters in all parts of the country.
 Senators and members of the House of Representatives, are hearing from their consti- tuents in clear and emphatic letters on this subject, so last week Representative Clayton of Alabama (Dem) introduced the same resolution in the House and 1t Is believed that 1t will receive the requisite ma jority ill the house and senate.

Community Progress and the
 Standard of Living

In the discussion of the al- legged high cost of living 1t has been pointed out by James J. Hill and others that one factor is the fact that we are all in clined to live more expensive ly. Living costs us more be- cause our tastes have become more expensive.
 That, however, is a matter of congratulation rather than regret. In the natural order of progress 1t is difficult to see how any other condition of things is possible. If, with the progress of agriculture and the introduction of labvr-saving machinery, 1t IS possible for a farm worker to produce a larg- CT crop than formerly by his years labor, 1t necessarily fol- lows that a smeller proportion of our population must be en- gagged in agricultural pursuits; and 1t follows also that the farmer, prospering from his increased output, must wear better clothes and live in a better house and buy pianos and automobiles, in order to supply a demand for the manu- factured products turned out by the larger proportion of the population which must be sup. ported in manufacturing and mercantile occupations.

The Homestead Bill

Keen disappointment IS felt over the fact that the House and Senate conference commit tees have been unable to agree upon the three-year home stead bill - a matter of great importance to the western states. There is no lack of de termination, among the Mem bers from the west to push this important legislation, but where the two Houses are log gerheads, the prospect for ac- tual results are verl much obscured, and while the friends of the measure have not re- faxed their efforts, yet there Is no question but what they fec somewhat blue over the pros pect of action of tine present session of Congress.

FOR
 CANDIDATES FILED

Petitions for Woodrow Wilson of New Jeasey and Champ Clark of Missouri for president. and Eugene Brady O'Neill and Reese NJ. Ling, both ot Phoenix. for national committeeman, were filed with John J Birdno. chair man ofthe state democratic com. mittee. this morning from Stafford.
 Wilson and Clark will be the on y presidential candid tes whose names will appear on the ballot in the democratic primary to be held i'll Arizona on May 29, at which time the voters will be given an opportunity to express their preference for president.
 However, should the voter pre- fer some other candidate, there will be blank lines on which he can write in the name.
 O'Neill and Ling are the candi. dates for national democratic committeeman for Arizona, and the one receiving the highest vote will fill that office, succeeding SelIm Nicholson the present en- cumbent. Either O'Neill or Ling will have charge of the presiden- tial campaign here next Novem- Der.
 Wilson, Clark, O'Neill and Ling will be voted for at large, and the one receiving the highest vote in the entire state will be declared elected.
 On the same ballot with the names of the four mentioned will
 be those of candidates for dele.
 gate to the Baltimore convention
 but these are selected by districts,
 into six of which the state has
 been devided by the state demo-
 cratic committee. Each district
 is allowed one delegate and one alternate.
 In the various districts tke county central committees will have charge of the election, nan.
 ing the election boards, fixing
 the polling places and providing the ballots and other material.
 It will canvass the returns and certify them to the state central committee, which will announce the results. Not until ali the re. turns have been made to the state committee will 1t be known who has won in the preferential presidential vote.
 Regardless of what the individ-
 ual delegate elected may desire to do in the Baltimore conven- ton he Is bound to vote for the
 candidate receiving the highest vote. With only the names oi Clark and Wilson on the Arizona ballots this insures that this state will cast it's six votes for one of them for first choice and
 the other for second in the BaIti. more convention.-Arizona Dem. ocrat.

A Bill to Amend Patent Laws

ABill has been introduced codify the Patent Laws. This bill was prepared by the officials of the Patent Office all of whom are Republicans and if the bill should pass in its present form it would put the Democrats i'll a very awk- ward position in the coming congressional and presidential campaign.
 Al the present time anyone who produces "new and use ful" invention and who applies for a patent thereon in accord ance with the law will get a patent. This bill provides that the invention must not only be new and useful" but the Patent Office officials are em- powered to determine whether or not the invention is of suffl- cient importance to warrant the issuing of the patent. This is really a revolution ary step, for the Patent Officials are not competent judges to determine the question of i'm portauce and 1t will be putting dangerous power with a temp tation to graft into the hands of this Government bureau rocy.
 The bill has also other radi- cal departures, one of which IS that 1t would enable the Offl- cials oj the Patent Office to prevent any more young men from engaging in the Patent practice as no firm or attorney can reach inventors without sending out circulars and pamphlets. This bill provides that before any firm shall send out circulars or literature they shall first be submitted 70 the Patent Office, and if the Pat ent Office considers that they are improper" then the Cir culars or literature cannot bt sent out.
 The word proper" is broad and sweeping word be cause 1t leaves 1t to the Paten Office to determine what i' proper" and what is not, anc by placing this power in thei hands they could destroy any patent attorney they choose The bill in this particular in fringes the rights of the Pos Office department as they hav' the right to bar anyone iron the mails who sends out fals or deceptive literature, but tn Patent Office is striving to b empowered with the extraor dinary authority of passing or what they consider is prope or improper.
 However, 1t is not believe, that Congress will be so stupi as to pass this bill in its pres ent shape, or anything similar

MAY NOT GET TO
 VOTE IN NOVEMBER

Phoenix Ariz.--If Arizona is to vote for president next Nov ember the present legislature must enact an election law.
 Attorneys who have looked into the question, declare that unless a law is passed to carry out the provisions ot the con- sitution, presidential electors, the congressional representative and legislators can not be chos- en in November. Under the pecu- liar provisions of the constitution the state will not be able to cast a ballot for president. and for two years will be without re- presenta tive in the lower house of congress or a legislature.
 The state officers chosen last fall will hold over "until their successors are elected and quail fed" Theconstitution says that the first state legislature shall hold office till the first day of Janury, 1913, and does not pro- vide that the members hold over in the event successors are not chosen. Under the United States law the term of Congressman Hayden expires on that date.
 As the territorial law did not contemplate the election of pre-. sidential electors, no special election to choose such officials can be help. When Arizona was a territory presidential electors did not exist and there was a delegate in congress, not a re presentative.
 The constitution provides fol the choosing of electors and z congressman, but 1t Is self-act ing. A special election law mus be passed by the legislature tt carry the provisions of the con sltution into effect.
 There has long been a conflic of opinion regarding whethe state officers can be elected mex fall. The constitution says tha elections shall be held in eacl "even numbered year. afte1 Arizona's admission to tn union. At the time the consitu ton was drawn, 1t was suppos ed Arizona would enter tn union Tn 1911 and that 191: would be the first even numbered year. But sta .ehood was delay eu and President Taft d1d no sign the proclamation until Feb ruary, 1912. Therefore 1914 i the next even numbered year.
 No matter whether an election is held in November the stat officials will hold until thei successors ate elected ant qualified. But there will be D legislature, there will be no pre- sidential electors and there wi be no congressman after the frs of January, 1913.
 No one seems to have discov cred that If presidential elector a new legislature and a repre- sentative in congress are chose next November, 1t must be a an election held under a la. that does not now exist. Ther
 were no such offices under tn
 territorial from of government
 therefore no provisions wer : made to fill them.

Some domestic animals have human in- telligence and sometimes more than hu- man, as for instance, a dog when his master has lost his. Here is true story:
 Last summer I took my boy down to the lake shore, where any amount of sand beetles were crawling about. They are very powerful and are about three-fourths of an inch in length.
 My boy amused himself by covering them with sand, and it was astonishing to see how fast they dug themselves out. 1 dug a hole with my hand about eight inches deep and put beetle in it.

The annual meeting Of 1918 TO be
held in DeLand is looked forward to
with the usual pleasure and instruc-
ton by the members. An appeal was
made fo- one thousand members for
this date, When over four hundred new
members were pledged by different
members Of the society. There was
perhaps no feature in the development
of F1orida's horticulture that has con-
tributed more to its advancement than
the work of the Florida State Horti-
cultural Society. Those members who
have stood by the organization from
its inception are looking with pleasure
on the results Of their constant ef-
forts.
President Hume briefly sketched
these developments and emphasized
the need Of earnest effort on the Part

the way up to the presently and its
needs and responsibilities have in
creased in proportion to the develop

The American VOICE
Is the Purest.

From some obscure source has come
the suggestion that unpleasant pecuI-
iarities of American voice and speech
are due to lack OF training. and that
they could all be remedied if we would
only give our children lessons in talk
ing, just as we give them lessons in
singing, spelling and arithmetic.
But where in the world is there
more training in talking than in this
country? What other country has as
much of It as we have? What other
country has any at all except to meet
the requirements of a few vocatlons?
One often hears tones that are dis
pleasing. They are used by both men
and women. II is true that a certain
nasality is characteristic of some parts
of the country.
But 1t is equally true that the most
melli1uous vocalization heard anywhere
IN the whole world prevails all through
our south. 1t is asserted by some OF

The Need For a
City Hospital.

The good women who earnestly
worked to conduct charity hospital
in Pensacola had to give it up as
poor job.
Pensacola Is too large a city not to
have a hospital to which charity pa
tlents may be sent, and since ST. Johns
hospital has been closed number of
cases where they could have been
looked after at hospital to advan-
tage have come up. and in these cases
the patients had not the means of pay
Ing for the hospital service.
It cannot be expected that a private
institution should take in the cases
where they are not able to pay for the
attention. 1t could not operate at all
II they did so, which makes it all the
more necessary for municipal owned
hospital
The same reason the city expends
money for parks, schools, fire and po-
lice protection should call for the city
to provide hospital in thorough keep
ing with the growth and prosperity Of
the city.
A strong. healthy public sentiment in
favor OF a municipal owned and sup
ported hospital will get it, and The
Journal urges the good women not to
give up in despair because their efforts
at soliciting funds for the hospital
were not as successful as they should
have been.
The city owes a duty to it's less for
tunate citizens and the strangers with
IN its gates. The hospital will have to
s, be built in few years and 1t might
as well be done now that we may get
the use OF it without delay. 1t is too
big an undertaking for any set OF
men and women to handle on sub
scription basis. 1t is the city's bust
ness and the city ought to handle It,
A small bond issue for the purpose
Is probably the best way to provide
funds for the building, equipment and
maintenance of the hospital The
building ought to be modern struc-
ture, built of brick or concrete and
built with the idea of adding to 1t as
the city grows and the demand for
more space increases.
Tampa has city hospital and 1t is
practically elf-sustaining, we are told
The patients who can afford it OF
course pay for the treatment, but those
WHO need attention. are given the best
TO be had without taking into consid-
Grafton whether the patient is finan-
cislly able to pay for the treatment OF
not.
From humanitarian standpoint the
hospital is necessary; from the stand
point OF an advertisement for the good
of the city the money for a Hospital
will be we'll spent.
