HELD TOO LIGHTLY.

One of the saddest commentaries upon the wilful neglect of their civic duties by American citizens is the fact that all political parties have to expend large sums of money to get voters to qualify as electors by registering, and yet other large sums to turn out and vote on election days. At Phoenix one day last week THE OASIS man heard another say that he was paying three dollars per day each to three men in his own precinct, to look up unregistered voters of their own political faith and get them before registering officers. To think that men hold so lightly a privilege 80 priceless that men of other generations fought, bled and died to achieve for them, is so humiIiating to the real patriot that the situation seems intolerable. But such is the fact. To the candid observer it seems that something should be done to remedy such a condition. But when that is said there arises naturally the question, what can be done? to which there seems no answer. Why not pro- hibit under pains and penalties all such work and let those who have not sufficient gumption to register upon their own initiative suffer disfranchisement until such time as they do awaken and seek regis tration officers without being prod
 ded to do so?

AN APPLICANT for naturaliza tion, in the United States court at Phoe- nix, last week, was refused admis- sion on account ofthe alleged wild ness of his answers as to the nature of government in America. To the question "who makes the laws of the United States?" he answered: "The republicans" To "who makes the laws for Arizona?" he said "Governor Hunt" While the an swers given may not be strictly and technically correct, they strike an ordinary observer as remarkably accurate.
