George H. Chase as State Senator. The contest from this county has been taken to the wrong tribunal.
 Section 8, Subdivision 2, Article W, of the Constitution says:
 Each House (of the Legislature) when assembled, shall choose it's own. officers, judge of the election and quail ifications of it's own members, and determine it's own rule of procedure"
 Any decision reached by the can vassing board regarding the contest over the office of State Senator from Greenlee County would in no way be binding upon the State Senate, which under our constitution, is constituted the tribunal to decide contests effect ing the election of it's own members.

Apparently Mrs. Hetty Green be- longs to that somewhat rare class of benefactresses who do good by stealth and blush to fine it fame," as she re- fused to name the institutions she claims to have helped with her mon ey. Such modesty does not affect the men who give millions to erect library buildings and endow univer- sites. Perhaps in such cases secrecy is impossible, but none the less there is a rarec' harm and blessing in not letting the left hand know what the right hand gives, thereby making pro- minent the gift, but not the giver. The graciousness of many gift has been greatly lessened by the osten- tatious manner in which it was be- slowed.

Perhaps most people regard the agi- tation in this country for woman suf- frage as of quite modern origin. As far as it is an organized movement that is true, but it is an interesting though not generally known fact that as far back as 164S a woman claimed the right to vote in the Maryland Assem- ply which convened in January of that year. Miss Margaret Brent was her name and she claimed the right to cast two votes-one as administra- trix for the late Governor Leonard Calvert and one for the proprietary, Lord Baltimore But the assembly was so ungalant as to refuse the re- aust

TAXPAYERS MORE vIeILANr


 The incident of the arrest of for mer county examiner in Greenlee County on what appears to be trump ed up and trivial charges is remind CT of the fact that recently there has been shown commendable dis position of the taxpayers of several of the Arizona counties to keep more in touch with county and municipal governments and their results. In Cochise, Gi1a and Greenlee counties there have been formed taxpayers as- .sociations, and in this county the sec retary of this association has been working during the past year compil- ing data concerning the operation of the various departments of the coun- ty government, with the result that a vast amount of valuable information has been secured which will be invalu- able for the future in making sugges- tions to the Board of Supervisors for economies which are always desirable to taxpayers and specially to those who are called on to meet the heavier tax bills.

FIGHTING ON THE BRAIN

The esteemed Douglas Dispatch is developing a penchant for the use of the term fighting" After applying it with such junction. to Cameron, Ho- val Smith and Williams, whom it des- ignated during the Arizona campaign as the fighting trio' it has trans ferred the title to LaFollette, whom it now designates as fighting Bob. v And if the wearing or this title is as disastrous to Bob as it was to the commodore and associates, future in functions may be applied for as means of restraining the use of this adjective in Republican politics in the State of Arizona.

BRANDEIS THE ANARCHIST

Louis D. Brandeis says business conditions are responsible for the crime of the McNamaras. That is to say .sbusiness conditions drove men who were themselves drawing good salaries and who knew nothing of pow erty and want from personal stand point, wantonly to destroy the proper ty of another man and murder more than a score of people who were en- gagged in earning their daily bread. And this statement was made in sup port of Senator La Follette's presi- dential candidacy.

We hope the presidential primary plan will not prevail in Arizona. With several democratic candidates in the
 field our republican friends would be afforded the opportunity of parti- cipating in the democratic primaries with telling effect and our observa- tion has been that there is no means to prevent a republican from partici- pating in democratic primaries, or vice versa.

WHAT THE ELECTION RETURNS
 OF 1911 IN OHIO SHOW.

In addition to the Democratic vic tories in the three great cities of Ohio Cleveland, Cincinnati and Columbus, just freshly recorded by the electors, another significant index of the public pulse in Ohio is the result of the cleo tion just had for delegates to Ohio's Constitutional Convention.
 These members were elected from precisely the same districts as were the members of the Lower House of Ohio's General Assembly in 1910.
 By virtue of the tremendous majori- ty that Gov Harmon received last fall, to-wit 100000, the Democrats for the first time in 21 years carried the House of Representatives. The re- spective party strength being:
 Democrats .-..........- oS Republicans 49 Independents
 The party lineup in the new Con- stitutional Convention elected in 1911 is as follows:
 Democrats fu Republicans 45 Independents This shows that Ohio Democracy with Gov. Harmon as their leader, has made even a better showing in 1911 than the unpredecented victory o1 1910.
 Can there be any longer any doubt ing Thomases as to the ability of Gov Harmon to carry Ohio in 1912? Ohio is needed to make victory possible.

1t was about one o'clock when they
awoke and the babe had been dead
ouly a few minutes, as it was yet

gled, strived in vain to bring 1t
back to life. IL is the suppositlon
that bold hives attacked the babe,
causing Its sudden death. Little
Ray was only six weeks old and the
pride of the home, but he has been
taken to a brighter home than this
where there are no sorrows he will
know. Weep not, dear parents,
but be prepared for the judgment
day when all will be gathered in
