Contestants Have Passed the Half Way Station and Now Are Entering the Stretch to the Goal of the Winning Figures.
TIME IS ESSENCE
 OF THE BIG RAGE
Make Every Day Count Un- til the Close of The Republicans Automobile Gold and Trip Contest March 9.

IL is the practice of many papers , tc have chat with their readers through the editorial columns at the
 end of each week. offering ielcita- tions for the good things done hy their patrons. and in which the paper has shared. and pointing out that sunshine is free, that it costs little OF nothing to smile. and that every member of the journalistic family is morally. financially and physically a gainer. if. during the week. something
 was done to better a condition of life or do some good in the world.
 This. however. is to be simply a brief heart to heart talk with the contestants in The Republicans Au- tcmobile. Gold and Trip Contest. and their friends who have aided and who will further help them in the quest
 for votes.
 Today each contestant is on the threshold of the last lap in the race which will close on March. 9th. There are four remaining weeks in this per iod all weeks cram full' of oppor- tunity and offering to the contestants
 the prospect of realizing what may
 have been lifelong dreams up 10 this time. The week which will be usher
 ed in tomorrow will pass quickly. The next three following weeks will
 see Father Time on his way in such rapid flight that there will scarcely
 be time to catch your breath before everything is over; before the winners are named and the proud victorS be-
 gin taking enjoyment in the fact that they have won. Realizing that the remaining time will pass quickly be- cause of the excitement attached to
 the close. The Arizona Republican contest department wishes to ask the contestants whether or not one to- day is worth two tomorrows. If it
 is. then there is just one simple pro Ceeding for those who desire with all their hearts to win. and that Is. To start in today on a Whirlwnd finish. The Contest Department has urged the candidates to do their best right along. but now it wishes to lay stress on the final necessity of looking eV- ,erything in the face and seeing where
 1t will be necessary to put in extra hard work for four consecutive weeks, SD that if you are tO be returned a winner nothing will be left undone
 in your behalf
 The Arizona Republican realizes
 that the contestants have worked
 too well up to the present time to allow any of them to become pos sessed of the idea that it will be safe to ease up in their pace during
 the final four weeks. No one will possibly be able to help you who does

 We're a funny lot of people. We're all dead certain we could have been rich if We had cared to he. or if t hadn't been for our besstly luck or if it hadn't been for the dishonesty of the other fellow But when you come to figure it down only about one man in 10000 ever does get to be rich.

Arthur w. Ballard.

The death of a man like Arthur W. Ballard is nothing short of a calamity to the community in which he lived. There are all loo few such men in the world and Phoenix has not so many il could afford To lose even one The shock and grief attendant upon Mir Ballard's death are almost of d personal nature. Many men are admired: greater number are liked: but few men are loved. MT. Ballard was one of the few
 He was man whom it was a pleasure to know. Big of body. of brain. or heart. the essence of honor and the eXemplar of candor and honesty. there was no room in his thought. There have been few men who moved on d higher plane. There have been few men who lived so completely above all forms of little ness.
 MT. Ballard was d man who did big things and he did them in d bis way. His business conceptions were always on large scale. As presi- dent of an important public service corporation il was inevitable he should come in for criticism. But there was hardly a man who eyer attacked his personal acts.
 And the few-the very few-whO did, now stand abashed at the evi- dences Of almost universal love and esteem his death has brought out In the presence of the grief of this community. such pitifm littleness is stricken dumb
 This man lett the best life record any man may leave. He left a name untarnished by single un- worthy act He left a wealth of de- votion and respect that few men can claim.
 And if he dared become the in strument of his own death. who shall judge him for that act? When all is said and done it takes a brave man 10 do that. Unless man can look into the recesses of his mind and can know the physical pain Of which his cheerfulness was the mask, he has no right to criticse.
 Peace to his ashes. His was q kindly nature. noble soul In every word and deed he was a gentle man to the manner born and fo: whose memory there can be naught but love and reverence.

uel is right. But he gives out the wrong impression. He implies that | it's dead easy to get money-"all those fellows are able to do is to grab money."-is his remark. and the re- mark implies that grabbing money is about the simplest of all the ac- complishments.
 But what about it? NIr Blythe. himself. is a pretty smart man but he hasn't been smart enough to ac- cumulate any considerable quantity of the coin of the realm He is work ! ing twelve or fourteen hours day as a Washington correspondent. a jop he has been holding down for d con siderable fraction of a century. If
 grabbing money is such an easy Samuel didn't grab million or two himself
 The truth is there are great buSi- ness men just as there are great writers. great musicians, great states men, and great poets. Daniel Web ster. one of the greatest lawyers and statesmen America has produced. was a mere tyro in business. He was al ways in debt Mark Hanna said O. William Mckinley that he couldn buy and sell corner lot without losing money on the transaction.
 On the other hand John D. Arch bold president of the Standard Oil company-no. president of one oi the Standard Oil companies-writes like a school teacher. And every newspa- iper man knows that the average school teacher writes somewhat worse than i the average blacksmith. The req 1 son is the school teacher knows more
 words but never has been trained to use them.
 The great juriSt. John Marshall, 1 was probably as impractical a man | as anybody could imagine And Theodore Roosevelt who. by his own statement. is practical man" 'ad- mits also that he doesn't know any thing about the law.
 1 It's a fine thing to get the round pegs in round holes and the square pegs in square holes. Mark Twain was the greatest wit the world has produced in hundred years. but he couldn't have invented the phono- graph. Thomas Edison did invent tho
 phonograph but he couldn't have written Huclleberry Finn if the sal yation of his immortal soul had de pended on it.
 So. it k barely possible We couldn't all have become rich men if We had tried never SD hard. And. maybe its q good thing. after all. Nature
 seems unfeeling. but shes a pretty wise old lady
 And. did you ever think that when
 all is said and done riches are on'Y lcomparative? If everybody were
 rich. nobody would be rich. Under that state of affairs We should au he. on 4 par-intellectually and other wise-and that is about the drearies'
 condition of which the human mind
 can conceive.
