Political Prospects

It seems pretty certain now that Col. Roosevelt will be candidate for the presidential nomination. President Taft will not strike his colors in advance of the conven- |tion, it is said, so there will be pretty trial of strength between the two. It seems just now as if the one who will suffer the most by the recrudescence of Rooseveltism will he LaFolIet,e. As for other candi dates, there are few worth men, tioning at present in the ranks of the republican party.
 Among the democrats the situa- ton is still unchanged. Wilson. Clark and Harmon continue to be the most discussed. Bryan has a very strong influence and it seems to be felt that without his endorse ment DO man can get the demo- cratic nomination. He is friendly to Clark, but he has been some- what lukewarm toward the Mis- sourian of late. Nevertheless Clark seems to be growing steadily if gradually. while some of his rivals are losing ground. Take it all in all, the situation is one of absorb. ing interest to all students of poli- tics.

A Girls Wild Midnight Ride

To warn people of a fearful fire in the Catskills a young girl rode horseback at midnight and saved many lives. Her deed was glor- ious, but lives are often saved by Dr. Kings New Discovery in cur ing lung trouble, coughs and colds, which might have ended in con- sumption or pneum mia.

One Word Led to Another

Heretofore The Republican has been under the impression that it has staff of pretty fair writers but it hes to admit that il doesn't know the first line of the simplest rule of the game. Down in Charlotte, Ken lucky, they've got a language smith that can make any pencil pusher in Phoenix look like. a deaf mute at suffrage convention. If you don't believe it read the following, which is taken from the Chronicle of that town:
 "The groom is successful phy- sician of Henrietta, young gentle man of splendid worth and brill- iant promise, for he is endowed by birth and training with all those noble impulses in winsome traits that adorn true manhood. The bride is lady of wondrous fascina- ton and remarkable attractiveness, for with manners as enchanting as the wand of siren and disposi- tion as sweet as the odors of flowers and spirits as joyous as the caroling of birds and mind as brilliant as those glittering tresses that adorn the brow of winter, and with heart as pure as dewdrops trembling in coronet of violets, she will make the home of her husband paradise Cf entertainment like the lovely home of her girlhood, where the heaven toned harp of marriage, with it's chords of love and devotion and fond endearments sent forth the sweetest strains of felicity that ever thrilled the senses with the rhyth- mic pulsings of ecstatic rapture."- Arizona Republican.

Cartridge Fired After 13 Years
 Under Water

Utmost every one rememb bers hay ing read of Clark's men of 1872 carrying heavy mnskets and pow
 der horns over their heads as they tramped the stream bottoms-of southern greys and northern blues charging with a yell through water, breast high, but always with gun and cartridge box held above as they came.
 This is true because of the fact that water invariably rendered am
 intuition worthless, and that, as result, in almost every historical account of marching army and guerilla raid, where mention is made of the forcing of streams dur ing rain or snow, the historian al- most invariably added, "the men so carried their arms and ammu- hilton that neither weather nor water could harm them." The slo- gan of the pioneers, Fear God and keep your powder dry" is familiar to every boy at school.
 However, future historical ac- counts of the fording of streams or of soldiers on the march during in- element weather will contain no such reference to extreme care in keeping powder dry.
 A workman who delved at the bottom of Havana harbor among the twisted and corroding steel work of the ill fated Maine recently proved that the right kind of nod ern ammunition needs no. protec. ton.
 When the Maine was brought to the surface, he discovered two or dinary Remington U.M c. 45-70 service cartridges that had rested at the bottom with the hulk of the battleship for thirteen years. Nat urally, he regarded them as worth less. It was foregone conclusion that the long exposure to the waters of the harbors had destroyed the powders "life." But his curiosity got the better of him. He inserted one of the cartridges in a gun and pulled the trigger. To his surprise it was fired" the ignition proving
 to be as prompt and snappy as that of new made cartridge.
 The other cartridge lies today on the desk of an officer of the Rem- ington Arms Union Metallic Cart ridge Go. It has marked an epoch | in the history of the development of American ammunition. Progress in ammunition manu- facture. signalized by this incident, may rob future historical accounts of most picturesque phrase, but has overcome the most serious am- munition fault with which users of
 other days had to contend. The soldier or hunter of today or of the future who carries the right
 kind of metallic cartridges need
 have no concern about keeping his powder dry"

STATE HISTORIAN

Some of the friends of Mulford Winsor are claiming that the office of territorial historian was created especially for him, and that one of the first duties of Gov. Hunt, when he assumes office, is to call for the resignation of Miss Sharlot Hall and give him the place. Miss Hall is fitted in every way to fill the position, and it would an unwise move on the par. of Gov. Hunt to remove her and give the place to a professional politician of the Win sor stripe.
 In this connection the Tucson Citizen has the following:
 | "When Governor Sloan named Miss Sharlot M. Hall as territorial historian he was not moved by political considerations. He se- lected her for that position beca use he recognized that there was no other man or woman in Arizona better fitted by reason of ability, education, experience and environ ment to compile and write the his- tory of Arizona.
 Miss Hall has lived for many years in the territory. She has known personally most of the pion- eers. She has always taken deep interest in the early day life of Arizona. She has studied Arizona's history, climbed her hills and roamed her valleys, going into out. of-the way places for more light on the life history of those who were the pioneers of the new state.
 ''It is now proposed, according to press dispatches, to get rid of Miss Hall, that a professional demo. cratic politician may be given a good position. This would be noth- ing short of calamity. The women of the new state are rising in right eous wrath and through their clubs are protesting against the official decapitation of Miss Hall. |
 "They are not merely supporting Miss Hall because she is woman, but because she, better than any one else in Arizona, is eminently fitted to fill the position she occu. pies. Arizona's history should not be compiled and written by a pro. fessional politician of "Little Ne mos" type. If Governor Hunt would reward him, let him find an- other place, but by all means let Miss Hall be retained as state his- torian and continue the work which she is doing so we'll.
