Senator Eugene S. Ives of Tue
son, who made such a strong
campaign last year for the Unit
ed States senate and was adver-
tised as Arizona S most progress
sive statesman, has made good
and proved by his acts that he is
our most progressive statesman.
Mr.. Ives was chosen a delegate
to the Baltimore convention in
structed to vote for Clark, but
when it became clear that Clark
was under the influence of Wall
street and Tammany it was Sen
ator Ives from progressive Ari-
zona, the youngest of the sister
hood of states, who led off with
his vote for Woodrow Wilson.
William j. Bryan himself proved
no more progressive that did

Ives is the kind of men we
want for leaders and the Hon.
Eugene S. Ives, the brilliant law
yer, progressive statesman and
true Democrat will, unquestion-
ably, be recognized as one OF
Arizona's most deserving and,
by far, one of her most capable
sons.
Senator Ives is a worker; he
puts his heart and mind into what
ever he undertakes; he is force
full and energetic and there is M
question but what he serves the
people with the same force anC
energy that characterizes nj;

Thomas R. Marshall, Governor
of Indiana and candidate for vice
president of the United States,
will be live wire in the big
campaign which will end on the
fifth of next November. 1t was
not until 1908 that Marshalls S
strength as a acampaigner became
known even to his friends. In
that year he was nominated for
Governor of Indiana, and the
winning fight that he made show
ed him to be a politician of no
mean ability.
Governor Marshall is a lawyer
and a good one, too. He is op-
posed to the modern tendency to-
ward Capitalization of govern
mental powers, and maintains
that states alone can successfully
regulate trusts and monopolies.

Rural Editors Got Tickets

A lot of people who have heard
the Backbone of Democracy"
talked about and don't know
what it means should harken to
Josephus Daniels, Democratic
national committeeman from
North Carolina. Mr.. Daniels had
charge of the distribution of
press seats for the Democratic
national convention. A thousand
of them were placed in his hands.
A New York newspaper man
who was without a seat appealed
to Mr.. Daniels. Sorry" said
Daniels, 'but all the tickets are
gone. Anyway | allotted five hun

Democracy? Get me?"

clear throughout that Hearst did
represent the principal opposi-
ton to the Bryan Wilson element
in the convention, and the sue
cess of Wilson is as much the
defeat of Hearst as it is the vic
tory of Bryan. The Hearst me-
thods are not likely to gain much
sway in the Democratic party.
Nor do they spell political sue
cess.

with an exceedingly heavy hand
/ in the November election. The
/ leaders of the Republican party
outside of Roosevelt and Taft see
the impending disaster and are
frantically seeking to avert it by
circulating petitions from one end
of the United States to the other
asking both the strawstack and
the windmill to withdraw, but
the two men who have done SO
much to reduce the Republican
to it's present desperate straits
are not going to withdraw. They
are too busy fighting at each
others throats to think or care
what will be the results Of their
actions. Taft is determined to
defeat Roosevelt and Roosevelt
is determined to defeat Taft.
All the people Of these United
States have long ago determined
to defeat both of them. There is
no need for Taft and Roosevelt
to continue the fight, they are
making on each other. The is
sues between them have already
been settled by the people they
have so often and so completely
betrayed. Neither has the least
hope of ever again being presi-
dent of these United States, for
the people Of these United States
have determined to take the gov
ernment back into their own
hands and scourge the rascals
out of the places they have pros
tituted. The result is absolutely
certain.

No Free Text Books

At a meeting Of the Board of
Education June 22, 1912, the
following resolution was adopted:
Owing to the fact that the
free text book does not become
effective until August Is, 1912,
and that prior to this date the
Board of Education is unable to
open competitive bids for prices
on the school books, or to do any
other definite or binding work
relative to the purchase of text
books, and whereas the majority
of the public schools begin the
middle Of September and some
as early as the last week of July,
and whereas under circumstances
the schools would be without text
books for several weeks after
opening of the term, and where
as the Legislature found it i'm
possible to make this, the free
text book act, an emergency act,
and whereas the Attorney Gen
eral has advised That it is within
the power of this Board to post
pone this matter, therefore, be it
resolved that no futher work on
the part of the Board to place
free text books in the schools
this year be attempted.

A New Birth of Freedom

! Wilson for president means q
new Democracy. 1t means a new
epoch in American self-govern-
ment, says the New York World.
The Democratic party has at last
broken it's shackles. It has eman-
cipated itself. 1t has rehabilitat-
ed itself in power and principle.
1t has turned it's face to the Ris-
ing Sun, to re-establish the faith
of the American people in their
own institutions.
Woodrow Wilson will be the
next president of the United
States. But he will be more than
that. He will be the first presi-
dent of the United States in a
generation to go into Office owing
favors to nobody except the
American people and under obli-
cations to nothing except the
general welfare.
No political boss brought about
his nomination. No political ma
chine carried his candidacy to
victory. No coterie of Wall street
financiers provided the money to
finance his campaign. He has no
debt to pay to corrupt politics or
to corrupt business. He was
nominated by the irresistible
force Of public opinion, and by
that alone. He stands before the
country a free man.
The American people have set
out to regain possession of their
government, and Woodrow Will
son was nominated for president
because he embodies that issue.
The bosses and the plutocrats
who tried to prevent his nomina-
ton were beaten by the power
of the people, and the power that
nominated him is the power that
will elect him.
With Woodrow Wilson as the
Democratic candidate for presi-
dent it makes no difference what
Mr.. Roosevelt does. 1t makes no
difference how many third part
les he organizes. Progressive
Democrats and progressive Re
publicans now have a candidate
of their own. The contest be-
tween Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr..
Taft is now a contest for the con-
troll of the. Republican organiza-
ton, and nothing more. The
menace Of a third term no longer
hangs over the country The
menace of personal government
no longer threatens American in
stitutions. The United States is
not to be Mexicanized. It is to
be re-Americanized.
1t is because Governor Wilson
represents this vital principle
that the World so persistently
urged his nomination. 1t is be-
cause Governor Wilson represents
this principle that the opposition
within the party was forced to
surrender. It is because Govern
or Wilson represents this princi-
pie that he will be triumphantly
elected in November Such a
man is lmperatively needed, and
the American people, true to their
traditions in every crisis, have
again found him.
Governor Wilson'S nomination
means that the rule of the boss
is over. 1t means that the part
nership in politics is forcibly de-
solved. It means that that old
regime of protection to privilege
and plutocracy is on the scaffold.
1t means that the old Gods are
dead.
The United States is back to
the benediction announced by
Abraham Lincoln on the battle
field Of Gettysburg that this
nation, under God, shall have a
new birth of freedom, and that
government of the people, by the
people and for the people shall
not perish from the earth. f"

he is an inveterate gambler. and ne

In addition to this, Attells hands are

times I'm fights that IL doesn't take
much OF II punch. delivered wrong

all, Attell hasn't fought a 2O-round

MCFARLAND HAS BETTER

Say Fans

SOUTH BEND. Ind, Feb. Ia
EYght fans today declared the battle
between Packey Mcfarland and Ed
die Murphy was the greatest hght
staged in the middle west since the
memorable battle in Milwaukee be-
tween Stanley Ketchel and Billy
Papke,
An almost unanimous popular YER
dict gives Mcfarland the decision,
although at the end of the ten
round Journey Murphy was lighting
as strong and defiantly as at the De-
ginning. Mcfarland scored knock
down in the fourth and for the
greater part OF this and the next
session Murphy was on the deien-
sive. The Boston boy quickly re-
cuperated and in the last three
rounds they were on even terms,
standing a large part OF the time toe
10 toe, raining blows upon each
other.
McFarland's footwork was re-
markable. He ducked so many hard
swings that fans believed Murphy 8
Judgment Of distance had. Murphy
showed some excellent defensive
work and several times covered so
effectively that Packey was helpless

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Feb. To-
There are many fans in Los Angeles
who wouldn't be surprised II Johnny
Kilbane should put Abe Attell 10 sleep
when they battle 20 rounds, Feb. %,
for the worlds featherweight cham
pionship. They are backing Kilbane
despite the present odds Of 10 TO In
favor Of Attell and the almost GER
tainty that these odds will, drop to 10
TO 6 OF perhaps 2 to /.
The Kilbane followers are figuring
partly on past performances and part
ly cis the showing Kilbane has made
in his recent fights as compared with
the lack of showing by Attell in his.
Two years ago Attell whipped Kill
bane In a 10-round fight in Kansas
City. But Kilhane has improved 100
per cent since then. And TO prove
II one has only to point TO his show
ing in two battles with Joe Rivers,
the tough little Mexican boy who was
touted for a time as champion.
Rivers was supposed to have a steel
Jaw and the ring ability OF Jim Cor
bett. Kilbane tackled him and they
fought like wildcats for 20 rounds TO
decision for Rivers. But that didn't
satisfy KiIbane. He insisted upon a
return match and got 1t. Then he
knocked the Mexican cold in 1G
rounds. That fight. demonstrated that
In addition to wonderful cleverness,
Kilbane carries punch.
