THE finest product of ciViiiza-
ton is a man who is healthy
in body, clear in intellect and
warm and pure in his affections.
Let this once be understood and one
can realize, in d way otherwise i'm
possible, how utterly inadequate is
our present form of civilization to
the production of the best results.
That is not the kind of commod-
ity that. the social machinery is
turning out, nor is it, except in
very limited degree, the end to-
ward which the social machinery is
being worked Very few people
prize beautiful life as something
that is beautiful in itself, and more
beautiful By far than anything
which the admirable powers eXer-
cised by that life may be able to
gain or achieve
once in q while. when a great
man dies a man whom we know to
have been thoroughly fine all
through. physically hale. big in his
thinking. sweet and generous in all
his feeling and loving, the public
comes to its senses in the matter,
forgets all about what he has said
and done, and thinks only of the
splendid thing that he himself was.

THE WAY HE VIEWS 1T

Last week the editor of the Ar
tesian Belt quit sinking artesian
wells and locating new settlers long
enough to pen the following review
OF. the political situation:
The republican national conven-
tion held recently in Chicago was
one of the most notable and specta-
cular in the history of this country.
Then came the democratic con-
vention at Baltimore, which was
even more notable and spectacular.
Who knows but what these con.
ventions, together with the Roose-
welt convention, called to meet at
Chicago August 5, will be indeed
epoch making?
What are the facts regarding
these conventions?
Though we do not favor Roose-
velt's candidacy or party, there is
no denying the fact that the steam
roller worked very smoothly in the
republican convention. We believe
that rank injustice was done in the
convention. Delegates were seated
without due regard to justice, and
it was not right to permit members
of contested delegation to sit in
Judgment on the seating of other
delegations. Roosevelt, therefore,
was in the right. But Ito the shame
of our country be it said) we believe
that steam roller methods would
have been used just the same by
Theodore Roosevelt, or almost any
one else who should happen to be in
control Of a convention. In the alb
sence of perfect citizenship and NOR
ality, the only remedy lies in direct
presidential primaries.
Now take the democratic conven-
ton. First and foremost, Bryan
was a passive candidate for the
nomination; he has never denied

THE Ell PASO & S. w. r. r.
Erecting Big Buildings at Tucson,
May Pass thru Gila Valley

Excavations for the Ell Paso &
Southwestern roundhouse and turn
table at Tucson were started last
Tuesday by a force of laborers in
the employ of the w. L. Pearson
Company. Excavations for the 9TH
er buildings will be started within
a few davs and the work will soon
be under full way.
The FL Paso & Southwestern, it is
said, contemplates making Tucson
the Arizona headquarters of the
system with very large shops when
the line to Globe is built.
1t is probable that within short
time after the Globe line has been
finally located that the same road
will build through the Gila valley.
The Phelps Dodge people have con-
templated the building of such a
line for a number of years.

cause from its first issue.

Guardian has advocated the same
cause from its first issue.
The Democratic party has favored
the enfranchisement of women and
the Republican party has opposed
it. On this point there is positive
proof. The 22nd legislature, over
whelmingly Democratic, passed an
equal suffrage bill. and Gov. Bordie,
head of the Republican party in
Arizona. vetoed it, although the
Governor, in several public speeches
in Graham county, during the pre-
vious campaign, promised to sign
an equal suffrage bill if the legisla-
ture passed one.
Although the conversion of the
Citizen is several years tardy, the
advocates of equal suffrage no doubt
appreciate it's assistance.

having as its Object the withdrawal
of both Taft and Roosevelt and the
substitution of some third, compro-
mise candidate. This is absurd; in
the first place it is not likely to sue
ceed in gaining many sponsors; and
in the second place, if it did, neither
Taft nor Roosevelt would give place
had they desired to do so they
would have retired at the time of
the Chicago convention.
Wilson was not the unanimous
choice Of democracy-Clark was
more nearly that choice. Wilson as
a man and a campaigner is not so
popular as Champ Clark. Wilson
if elected, will be largely counseled
by Bryan-a Bryan president.
Locally, things are in just as
much of a muddle. Taft pleases
very few in Arizona outside of his
own Federal family and the repub-
lican machine. Roosevelt is more
popular here among the masses,
but is not the choice of many of
the thinking republicans who do not
approve of his style and question
sincerity. They think it is all ego
tism and ambition. On the other
hand, democrats are not enthusiastic
over Wilson. Arizona was for Clark
and the delegates were so instructed.
Ives, the S. Z. attorney, was the
first to bolt Clark, and is said to
have been one of Bryan's chief lieu
tenants in the convention - this
while he was all the time instructed
for Clark. So he is hailed as the
boss of Arizona now by many. But
this rankles in the bosom of the old
line democrats of Arizona, who
have their supicions of Ives all the
way through, for these and other
reasons. A corporation attorney
shouting himself hoarse for Bryan
and progressivism, some say! What
is the meaning of it ALL" they ask.
We do not question Bryan, !"
most of the democrats say. While
he may be at times little too radi-
CAL" they say and ambitious, we
believe in his sincerity and progress
sive principles.
DR.. Shine, the Copper Queen sur
geon, is also said to have bolted
Clark rather early in the game.
And j. S. Douglas, affiliated with
the ps-Dodge people, wires his
Arizona friends in shout for Will
son and progressivism. And the
Copper Queen and the S. p. are
usually found on the opposite side
of the fence. So Arizona democracy
is really in something of turmoil.
They are all shouting for Wilson,
but some of them in a half hearted
way and rubbing salt into the
wound,

LITTLE SPARROW
PEST DESTROYER
EnGIish Bird May BE Used Against
Alfalfa WeeviI An the West
Experiments Are TO
Be Made.

The English sparrow, originally I'M
ported into this country to destroy in
sect pests, but known chiefly in recent
years as a pest of other birds, may
come into its own again, according to
the officials of the government bio
logical survey. 1t has been found that
the sparrow is a vigorous enemy Of
the alfalfa weevil. an evil which
threatens to spread throughout the
entire alfalfa farming territory of the
west as the cotton boil weevil has
spread in the south So far the weevil
has appeared only In Utah and part
of Wyoming, but dozen other states,
1t is said. will be affected within a
few years unless a real enemy of the
pest is introduced to fight 1t.
The biological survey is planning to
experiment with other birds this sum
mer and will not recommend that the
English sparrow be sent into the al
falfa territory unless no other effec-
tive enemy of the weeyil can be
found. The bureau of entomology has
received from its agent in Italy a
number of parasites which feed on the
alfalfa weevll and these will be sent
to Utah at once.
