of them do, in China and India and

famine-stricken from time to time.
At that the chances are there are

starvation in this country but they

Colonel Bryan has Joined Colonel
Roosevelt in advocacy of the recall

favor such advanced radicalism. The

mentioned by him, wherever they ex. ist is hindrance to the progress ot every laborer who would listen to such teaching or training, let it come from labor unions or from other sources. The young man who starts life as a laborer, and many Of the biggest in. dustrial captains of the present day started that way, with determine. ton to do the least for his wage will have a poor chance for advancing or bettering his condition. It is the man
 who shows disposition to do all that is expected of him and more in any employment that soon attracts favorable attention and promotion to greater responsibility and a larger sphere of usefulness and opportunity.
 Woodrow Wilson is a man with a courage to speak or uHdes rable things and conditions in the management of labor unions, in the management of our government, in the management Of railroads, of banks and other bis enterprises and he is fighting today to bring the wage-earner. the farmers, the manufacturer and the capitalist into one partnership in government, so that there shall be no fayorit.sm for any class and no oppression for anyone.

Plant Secret.

An old and experienced florist taught me many valuable and useful things in regard to plants. One of his tricks was that whenever he trans planted any flower or plant he always sifted steel filings into the new soil before he put fin the plant. He ex- plained to me that the steel filings rusted when the soil was watered and that the rust made the plants grow rapidly. In the long time that was associated with him I never knew his method of treatment to fail.

Painting is not the only art in which masterpieces have been pro dUced by mere boys. Although 1t was not published until a year later, it is probable that Keats wrote his famous Ode to Autumn in his sixteenth year. and, indeed, all his five great odes, among the greatest in any language, before he attained legal manhood. He died at twenty-five. SO that all the masterpieces which came from his pen may be regarded as the produc- tion of boy.

THE REFERENDUM RtIIC

BILLS.
 The stand taken by F. c. Atheran regarding the referendum bills which have to do with the railroads. is the correct stand and the arguments he advances are sound. If Arizona wants to grow rapidly it must encourage the railroads to build branches and make improvements. Putting stumbling blocks in the way of the development of the state is a very poor business. The day is past when it is the proper thing to swat a railroad.
 A railroad that is developing state should be boosted by the people just as they would boost for any other big business enterprise that will bring people and wealth to the state It's to the interest of the people to help tbe railroads.

SEMl-MOkTHLY PAY
 FIXED FACT IN BlSBEE.

The Copper uQeen Consolidated Mining company has announced thai beginning with the wage for next month it will pay its employees twice each month instead of once as here tofore This action is taken because il has been found that the employees of the company are desirous of such . change, according to the statement of MT French, the general manager Of the company.
 It has been evident during the past few weeks and since the new payday law was made the subject of refer. endum petition that the new law had a strong sentiment behind it The Queen hesitated to accept the system until assured that it was desired by the employees of that company and be- ing now assured on this point the final and definite announcement is made, so that whatever benefits are to be had from a more frequent pay ment Of the workingmen are now as- sured for Bisbee as the c. & A. and Shattuck companies had previously put the new system in operation.
 The strong argument in favor Of this new payment Of wages every two weeks was that it would tend to bring about an absolute cash basis for all business transactions and that little crediting would be necessary where a man is receiving his wages every two weeks. In support of the proposed system business men have pointed out that with trading put on a strictly cash basis the laboring man would be able to buy goods for less than where a credit system is in practice. This claim has logic behind it, as the man who pays cash for all his needs is most likely to receive the best an1 largest value in his purchases.
 Of course the inauguration of the twicea-month payday, now assured will not prevent the asking of credit or the granting of such favors. The frugal, reliable man will not have his trade relations with his merchant dis turbed as he may pay monthly or semi.monthly as he chooses, provided his reliability be well established On the other hand. the man who is not frugal and who spends his money in dissipation wilI be around when his pay check is exhausted seeking ac- commodation just as persistently as he was when his wage came in month. ly installments and the risk in credit ing such customers will be in no way iessened by the fact of his receiving his pay for work more frequently.
 So. there is a chance for disappoiht- ment in the magnitude of the benefits to cone from the semi-monthly pay day But whether the benefits are large or small the Review is glad to see the disposition manifested here to meet the desire Of ;he employees in the matter

The LeaHet
disclosed:

Three years ago Woodrow Wilson delivered, in June 1909, the baccalau- reate sermon to the members Of the Princeton university graduating class of that year. In that sermon, as printed in the Trenton True Ameri- can, appeared these declarations:
 You know what the usual standard of the empioye is in our day. IL is to give as little as he may for his wages. Labor is standardized by the trades union and this is the standard to which 1t is made 10 conform. No one is suffered to do more than the aver age workman can do; in some trades and handicrafts no one is suffered to do more than the least skillful Of his fellows can do within the hours al lotted 10 days labor and no one may work ont of hours at all or volunteer anything beyond the minimum l need not point out how economically dis astrous such a regulation of labor is. It is so unprofitable to the employer that in some trades it will presently not be worth his while to attempt anything at all. He had bet. ter stop altogether than operate at an inevitable and invsr.able loss. The labor of America is rapidly becoming unprofitable under the present reguIa- ton by those who have determined to reduce it to a minimum. Our eco homie supremacy may be lost because the country grows more and more fun of unprofitable servants"
 The Trades Unions Advocate of Trenton, the official organ of all labor unions in that city, in it's issue Of oc tober :, 1910, quoted this excerp from Woodrow Wilson's baccalaureate ad- dress and stated that this speech of Woodrow Wilson had been published "in nearly every daily paper in the state of New Jersey and also in New York and Philadelphia papers"
 Continuing, the Trades Unions Ad- yocate said.
 Therefore, the waee-earner will ae- cept them as his true sentiments which they evidently are, because they were delivered in a sermon tG the graduating class of the university after careful preparation, and were intended to be guiding words to the members of the class after they left the university and went out into the world as employers Of labor; intended to instill in their minds a hatred for and contempt of wagssearners and es- peciaily organized wage-earners
 No one reading the words of Wood row Wilson in the bsccalaureate ser mon referred to above is warranted in saying that 1t was his intention to in- still hatred Of the wage-earners. but all must admit that the conditions

CAMPAIGN ABRUPTLY BROUGHT TO END.

The announcement of the democrat ic candidate for president yesterday that he would cancel all his speaking appointments in the national cam. paign after this week until Colonel Roosevelt is able to resume his cam paign work probably means the ab- rupt ending of this years campaign. Reports from the bedside of Colonel Roosevelt confirmed the fear that the distinguished gentleman was more seriously hurt than the first reports indicated. The bullet remains where the assassin shot 1t and while giving out a measure Of assurance that the wound is not of fatal character still the announcement that it would be necessary to keep the patient quiet for probably ten days is calcuIa std to leave uneasiness lingering in the public mind.
 There has been general rejoicing that the would-be assassin tailed in his helIish purpose and interest will be riveted on the physical condition of Colonel Roosevelt so long as there is a possible doubt of his recovery and the incident will serve to aIlay the en- thusiasm which was rising for the sev- eral presidential candidates as the political conflict was reaching it's close.
 The wounding Of the ex-president of the United States when he was again a candidate shows q depIorable con- Gition in this country which has been nursed and nourished by the ranting demagogues who go through the Iari trying to poison the minds of the people against every man who rises 10 prominence or wealth. We are not now alluding to anytbing that has been said in this campain about Colonel Roosevelt, or anw other candidate, but to the growing custom of denunciation of men in authority either in govern ment or industrial pursuits whenever controversy is presented for discus sion. There are weakminded, vicious characters in the country who are easily worked up to the point of dan ger and when these are so worked uk by vile abuse no one may know who $ to become the victim of such an in cident as the wouhding Of Colonel Roosevelt, which should serve 10 make radical men and radical news papers more conservative in their crit icism of those with whom they do not agree.
 Many murders nave been committed as a result of the inflaming of tha mind of the weak-minded and vicious.  We have one incident in the continued denunciation of the owners of the Los Angeles Times until that office was dynamited and twenty-two innocent people lost their lives by the act of those who had been deluded into the belief that the cause Of labor could te helped by such an atrocious act. Another similar incident We all re member when two men were mur- Tered in the Review office several

 Owing to my poor health,' hs says and in accordance with the ad- vice of my physicians I shall not make any speeches. All of the old men in the State have already heard me speak, and if there are any young ones who have not and desire it, I shall take pleasure in mailing such pamphlets copies of some of my best speeches Nothing could delight me more than to be able once again to see my old friends face to face, and it saddens me to think that I shall never have this pleasure again.
 He recalls that when he entered the senate nearly eighteen years ago he was ''in a cloud of obloquy on ac- count of newspaper abuse at home.'' ''
 T have fought my way in spite of it" he says, "and have lived to see most of the newspapermen in the press gallery my friends. By long service and hard work I have won an enviable position in Washington, and the State is entitled to whatever ben eft I have in places on the commit. tees. which can only be obtained by such service.''

 Gilmore was found in West End factory, fast asleep, with a bicycle near him. The night watchman thought he was a burglar and turned him over to Patrolmen Malone and Ryan for further investigation.
 Gilmore explained this forenoon that he and another New York boy start ed from that city early yesterday, and riding all day on bicycles reached this city penniless and hungry, late last night
 They became separated as they en- tered the city, and Gilmore found his way through an open door of the fac tory where he settled in an easy chair and went to sleep
