IFE is a journey, a

The doctor comes in
and says that it is A.

boy or a girl. And the nurse comes in
moment later and shows the baby to
the wondering, happy mother.
From that moment life begins and
the milestones fly past rapidly. You
Jog up and down on your mothers
arm, in the baby carriage, on the road
to school after while YOU pick ont
the path for yourself and go YOUR
OWN WAY.
The ancestors behind you on both
sides, grandfathers and grandmotb-
ers stretching back to the cavedwell-
ers of two hundred thousand years
ago or more, influence you greatly.
And early surroundings influence
you.

controlled by that which is outside
OF us, and how much we can control

This picture, in its simple earnest

Make them feel that every step is

Make the boys feel that gambling,

to the end without hope,
Make them understand that they

What are the great milestones in
life, and how should the grown man

Request of Miners
 Has Been Refused
GOVERNMENT WILL NOT INCOR- PORATE DESIRED MINIMUM WAGE IN MEASURE.

London, Mar. 24.-The government minimum wage bill, as it stands, will not settle the coal strike. That is now admitted on all sides. Therefore, with grave anxiety, the country awaits the result of the joint conference between coal mine owners and miners Monday. The miners leaders consented to waive the district schedule, which heretofore had been maintained as the only basis of settlement which they would accept, but will insist up on the demand for five and two shill- ing minimum. The government ad- heres to it's refusal to embody those
 ates in the bill. If the owners agree to concede this demand, it is the gen. eral opinion the strike will soon be settled. If they do not. it will make little difference whether the bill in ils shape be passed or withdrawn.

BUILDING ORDINANCE
 SHOULD BE STRICT
(From Wednesdays Examiner)

(From Wednesdays Examiner)
 With Yuma facing a period of ad- vancement, building boom and home improvement, it has been suggested to the Examiner by several business men that the city council should pass a more stringent building ordinance than ever before in the history of Yuma, and that it should be rigidly enforced. With the new Sanguinetti building going up on the corner of Main and Second streets, and with other high class, or Class A buildings projected for Main street, it would seem that the ordinance should be passed so as to prevent any second hand or Class B buildings from being built within the fire zone, or down town district. It will only be short time now until the siphon will be com pleted and the real growth of Yuma will begin.
 None of the old rookeries should be allowed to be remodeled into fire traps, but a stringent ordinance should be passed and the building in- spector charged with the duty of en- forcing the ordinance to the letter.
 If second class buildings are allow ed, and remodeling of old shells per mitted, it iS simply allowing the town to stand still that much longer.
 Buildings of the Sanguinetti, Eel Ter theatre and Moretti type are orn- ments to the town and almost if not absolutely fire proof, and for this req son, the remodeling of antique and obsolete buildings instead of tearing them down and erecting modern build ings, should not be permitted by the council.

CHARLEY MADE
 QUICK GETAWAY
DECIDES THAT AGITATION OVER THE ALLEGED ILLEGAL LIQUOR TRAFFIC WAS UNHEALTHY.
The Parker Post says:

The Parker Post says:
 Gee Sing, better known as Char ley" who for the past two years has conducted a restaurant on California avenue, decided Sunday night that a little trip to the coast and a visit with some of his old cronies from the celestial empire would be just the proper thing for his health, which is quite delicate whenever prosecutions are threatened for alleged illegal li- quor selling.
 "Me ketchum train away from this town while ketchum is good" said Charley" to a friend early Sunday evening. Maybe Monday too late, and then Judge Graves he have my roll and send it down Yuma, where they spend it. Nix on that, me go to coast and spend it myself, and have a good time.'
 We have old proverb in China which means in American language that it is foolish to finger when the officers have anything on you So me for across the bridge. Parker diam fine town but it will look heap bet ter to me from other side of the river"
 Charley" was most accommodat- ing and when the town went dry his heart ached for some of his customers who were accustomed to their morn in's mornin'." IhAn he had bright idea. He would come to their rescue, and sell just little booze. Soon he was swamped with orders; the more orders he had the more chances he ran, until there came time when he was suspected, and later a clear case is said to have been worked up against him. But Charley was not going to get caught by waiting around unnecessarily. Getting a tip Sunday that he was next he quickly made arrangements for the transfer of his IeSIduI duI anu l0IC CO"A U0C"00H I"O days, with over $400 in accounts on his books.
 Aside from his recent defection of the law Charley" was a good citizen and was generally well liked. Anyone at any time could always get a square meal from him whether he had the price or not

LEGISLATIVE ABSURDITY
The Arizona Democrat says:

The Arizona Democrat says:
 We have no idea of what the presi- dent of the council has in his mino by excluding the newspaper men from the floor, but we do know that the gentleman is taking himself and his associates all together too serious. Never in the history of Arizona has a newspaper man ever sought to tamper with a member of the legis' lature. That is not any part of their business. The newspaper men at the National capital are welcomed 10 every department of the government; the president of the United States cabinet officers, senators and con- gressmen all unite in aiding the men of the press in securing every pos sible facility to obtain the news, and no record exists whereby the priv ilege has been abused The same with Arizona lawmaking bodies, and we say, with regret, this is the first legislature that has ever convened in Arizona that sought to cast reflection upon the press. In contra distinction to this narrow un-Ameri can principle we find Governor Hunt and his private secretary, Mulford Winsor, at all times willing to aid the press in securing everything at their command. The doors of the governors office are open at all times to the members of the press, and they are treated exceedingly we'll Governor Hunt has been in public life sufficient length of time to real ize that to bar the press from public business is to keep the public in dark ness as what the public officials are doing. Prevent the Phoenix newspa- pers from securing the news from legis- lators and the people of the state will be unable to ascertain what is going on at the capital.
 The Democrat regrets that the gen. tleman who presides over the Senate found it necessary to put in operation such an absurd ruling; yet it is his business, and he must asume the re- sponsibility.

Strike Should Not Be

The Washington Herald in an edi torial under the captixn "To the Cred it of Roosevelt" says:
 With the country facing a coal strike of gigantic proportions, it is worth while to remember that when a similar crisis once occurred, Theo- dore Roosevelt, then president of the United States, created a commission which listened patiently to all tho facts upon both sides of the contro versy and then settled the contention by arbitration.
 "It was not a constitutional duty, perhaps, of the president, but it was an action which took courageous spirit and was justified by results It was a typical Roosevelt incident, parallel to his course in the Russo Japanese war.
 Perhaps the precedent then set by President Roosevelt will be followed now and strike averted by a judg- ment rendered by some impartial trib- unal. It would certainly seem as if, in these days of modern civilization, the distress and danger of a wide spread strike ought to be avoided It is certainly inexcusable that a nation which ranks foremost in a high order of intelligence, innocent people must suffer because labor and capital dis agree"
