THOU SHALT NOT STEAL"

Thrr" can be no ,loun of the justic" of inc demand of President Taff that hr is entitled tn a chance (" make fair fight for ihr pres lirncy. nor can there he much question of the correctness of his declaration that a man who will accept place as an rlecIor up- on the national Republican tick rt and will then cast his vote for Inc candidate of another party is Inherently dishonest.
 There is nothing obligatory up- "n the part of any man to accept ih" nnminatinn as rlcctnr upon the Republican ticket, but once man has gone before the people as a ran'lldal" for such all office upon the Republican ticket he iS bound hy all the rules of drcrnry and honesty lO work for the prr$i- dental candidate of the National Republican party. If a man does not wish lO SO do, then if he DOS scSSrS a spark of political or per Sonal honesty Inc will withdraw from the ticket if already nomi- atcd and will refuse nomina- lion if he has not already bcdn selected.
 There iS no reason why a good man should not be a candidate for election as presidential clectOr upon the Bull Moose ticket. No 1nattrr what his past political af- tiliations may have been provided he stand for just what he is, a candidate of the Progressive party pledged to ih" election if poSSi- hle. of Colonel Roosevelt. There would be more dishonesty in the hrt ar a man elected aS an elect = Or upon Tn" new party ticket, as an "l"rt"r upon the new party ticket casting his ballot in the electoral c"ll"G" for Governor Wilson. than th"r" would for a man elected as a Republican tn vote in the col I"Gr for Roosevelt.
 On" must hr flesh. fish nr fowl. He cannot hr two or more of these at on" lime. If man is ROosc- Ncli progressive. a m 'mhcr of inc third party. Inc cannot he Rppub IIran al the. same lime. and if inc Third party expects tO fake place lines of rlravagr must br sharply defined. To work against a party and at the same time lO claim io hc a member thereof would hc treason of the rankcst sort.

same to the treasure caves of hu-
 manity, and friendly smile il- lumines the dark corners like a beam of April sunshine.
 Never mind if fools term you a mug. A mug can hold lot of happiness at times. Anyhow, it is better to be a happy mug than to be a miserable lump of refined marble. Marble may be pretty to look at, but il is very cold tn lean against.
 The popular man has cheery word for everybody. He has no company manners. He says Good morning" 10 his charwoman with a. much gusto as he would pass the timr of day with a duchess.
 He Is never grumpy, al any rate. not in public. He has his had days. as we all have, but he is too nnsclfish to inflict them on nlh- CT people. The popular man has glad heart; il is glad because it is kind. He does his good turns as he passes along the road of life; becauc he knows he will not pass that way again.
 To be popular then. is very simple. It is only the common sense application of the good old Golden Rule. The popular per- son thinks before he speaks, never says anything calculated to hurt feelings, and does unto others as he would br done by.
Valdez daily prospector., 1912-09-06
GOLDEN RULE APPLIED.

]IIr man. woman or child has vel to hr born who does not wish Q" h" popular. Popularity means in" possession of most of inc things which make life worth Iiv- ing. Money may bring many bless jnes. but popularity is not ncc- rSSarily one of them.
 Fanc may como iO q man, but without bringing him inc relative mraning of popularity. Fame foo "fIrn only spells envy. malice. and all unchariiablrncss. and tho possession of this worlds wealth too often means, not real pOpu- lariiy, but the trucking attend anrc of any army of sycophants.
 Tho popular man or woman is welcome everywhere, anywhere, and al all times. His pathway through life is bordcrcd with smiling faces, and he has inc happy feeling of being wanted, of being waited for. which is worth more Io man than tho posscs- sion of rubics.
 Like everything clsc. it is easy enough io bc popular if you know how. The secret is quite sim rlc. The popular person is fhC unsclish person, Inc person with wide sympaIhics, and Iho person with ready smile.
 Somc folks sccm to think ihat ihr way fo get il is io grab. Ncv. "r was greater mistake. The way io get is io give. Sympathy Inc power of entering into anoth. cr mans interests, not ncccssar. fly into his troubles (it takes { saint io do that honesily), Is al. ways repaid with compound in. Icrcsf. Sympathy Is the open Sc.

THAT UNTOUCHED ALASKA
 COAL.

Officers of inc armOrrd cruiser i Maryland. which has recently
 been in Alaskan waters, made an
 inspection of inc Malamuska coal
 fields. A dispatch from Seward
 says they report having found
 "@rraI quantities of excellent
 cual.' But when in Alaska the Maryland did not usc Alaska coal. II is difficult io understand how tan intelligent government. such
 as we are supposed lo have in the United States, has failed for SO imany years to make use of the coal of Alaska. If the old plan of private ownership Of coal lands lis to be abandoned, then why not
 try something clse-leaSing. for cXample-instead of pOStpOning and waiting and waiting and post iponing? A great many Alaskans have become cmbittcrcd by the Iuncnding delay. They feel they have been mjuSily treated and they have almost dcspaircd of any change.
 I Even if the coal of Alaska were opened io supply only the navy, it would help the stable part of . thc population of that country. On the wharvcs of Alaska towns is piled coal brought in from the
 states or from British Cnlum-
 bia for thc use of our Eovcrn- mont vessels. It has been trans ported hundreds of miles and the freight charges alone arc moro than equal io thr cost of the coal. | Kalalla. which is near good coal field. pays more ihan s20 a ton for coal brought in from the United SiaIrs or British Columbia. Of course. if the coal fields were opened it might be some time be fore there was big enough mar ikct tn warrant operations on a large scale and coal prices might .cOntinuc high. Even s0. il would be far better for Alaska than
 DIcSfIll bt
 would be using their own coal. "A start must be made some time if human beings are ever io get
 any advantage from the wealth of : fuel lying untouched.
 After all the diSappnintm"nlS S and delays Alaska has suffered be- 'couSp or inc fai1llrp of Ihc "nyrrn-
 mcnt to adopt any policy in lieu of the one departed from when
 executive orders were issued wiih-
 drawing lands from entry, the , United States should try io make
 amends by al least using the fine Alaska coal for inc government ,vcscsls when thcy arc in the North Pacific Tacoma Ledger.

REAL ESTATE
AUTO REALTY TRADES BECOMING COMMON
There is Always Someone With Land Who Wants an Auto or
 Visa Versa

| In the present age, when one hears so much of the cost of living, the average man counts hmSielf fOrtu- nate if he has one automobile. To have more than one is either a lux ury or the force of circumstances. In the case of F. w. Shedd, who just now has a pair of buzz wagons. the latter is the case. A while back Mir Shedd, F. D. Lane and F. w. Griffen purchased some Phoenix lots During the past week the lots were sold to the H. c. Thomas Real Els tate and Investment company A part of the consideration in the tram saction was the two machines in question, both brand new, one Regal touring car and the other an American roadster. Shedd couldn't decide which of the two cars he wanted to reserve for his own use so the matter finally was compromised by his taking both, buying the equity of the other two parties in the pro- ceeds of the sale.
 This marks the third machine Mir. Shedd has owned within the past six weeks, and in his mind an automo- bile and a piece of Phoenix real es- tate is one and the same. He has distinguished himself lately by sev- eral auto-reaI estate trades and now having d working capital of two cars will probably make still further in- roads in Phoenix realty.

THE FUTURE
 LOOKS GOOD
E. J. Bennitt and Company Have an Optimistic View of the Coming Winter; Business Continues Good
 During Summer Months

There is d general feeling among the real estate men of Phoenix that the coming fall gives promise of much activity in the real estate busi- ness. This feeling, according to the E. J. Bennitt Company, is streng thened by reason of the fact that the present summer is marked by ar unusual brisk demand for proper ty. There has been no appreciable falling off in business with the com ing of summer this season, that here tofore has been generally expected and often realized It is hardly to be expected that at this season of the year many newcomers are wis iting the Valey-spring. fall and win ter is the time for them, but among local residents there is d groOd deal of trading and buying in town prop erty- A good many residents of oth- CT parts of the state, too, are Com- ing to Phoenix to locate
 During the past week the Bennitt company disposed of a very choice East Evergreen lot at the corner of 5th street and Culver to C. C. Mich ols.

He will have a handsome res idence on his new lot by fall; in fact the contract already has been let and work will be started this Mrs a mountain trip planned for the rest of the summer and during their ab- sence the construction of their new home will be supervised by the Ben nitt company and will be ready for their occupancy upon their return in the early fall.
 A splendid seventy five foot cor ner at 18th avenue and Madison street was also sold during the week to Nealy A. Pennington. A three thousand dollar house will be erect ed there in a short time.

A third new bungalow is being finished on Jef- ferson street by the same company.

DEMAND STRONG FOR
 CHELSEA PLACE HOUSE
Homebulders Let Contracts for Ultra Modern Residence to Fill Need in
 De Luxe Addition.

s4O000 is being spent on new resi- dence construction in Chelsea place in nine houses. This is considered a re- markable showing inasmuch as this addition Deluxe is but two months old. It also reflects the present healthy and satisfactory real estate situation in Phoenix.
 The Home Builders find a pressing demand for first class new modern residences with the supply limited Hence the motive for three more hous- es in Chelsea place, construction to start tomorrow
 These houses it is promised, will be distinctly different from anything now in Phoenix. Each is to be the most advanced type of modern bungalow construction.
