At the last meeting Of the county com.
missioners the Walhalla Mountaineer,
Cavalier Chrnicleand The Pioneer Ex
press wers made the Official papers for
the ensuing year. AS for ourselves we
are thankful Tor the appointment. We
fully realize that.it is a task.for the board
to mete out the patronage to the nine
Offices IN the county and satisfy all.
The Pioneer Express has never let the
official designation interfere with giving
report ofthe doings'of the county fathers,
as well as other news which interests it's
readers, for we aasnk it lis one of the
most important dsties of local paper
to let the Taxpayers know how the ad.
ministration of the countyis being con.
Quoted. Acting on this principle in the
past the circulation Of this paper has
been pretty seners all over the county,
and We see no difference since the county
seat was removed.

There is considerable Dissatisfaction in
the way Ex-Governor Burke made ap.
poantments before he retired, and the
senate is liable to refuse confirmation in
some cases. 1t seems that the COVER
nor took advantage Of his six. years in
afice and recently made appointments SO
they will hold over Governor uanna's
term. The matter was brought up just
before recess last week and we are liable
to hear more from It later.

WALL WINGS FLOP TO-
GErnER OR SEPARATELY

a writer in this months McClnrs's
Magazine points out some diReultles
that will be experienced in the. .ofeaniza-
'tion and action of the democratic senate
when it sonseoes IN extra SESSION nert
Maueh.
As he says and is patent to all olssesv-
ens,the democrats are just as much divid.
ed rs to tariff aad many other public
issues asare the republicans. They had
sense enough to keep together during
Tho presidential campaign and win an
easy victory between the divided ranks
Of the republicans.
They have therefore gotten hold of the
reins Of government but the right hand
of the party is far removed from its left
hand.
There is just as much difference be-
tween a radical democrat and conserva-
tive democrat as there is between pro-,
gressive republican and q stalwart.
Indeed it is questionable if the two
wings of each party do not assimilate
more readily with the respective wings of
the opposing party than they do with
each other.
In the senate in both parties, the rad
icals are just about equal in numbers to
the older conservatives.
II the liberal or progressive wing of
the democratic senators attempted to
igaore the other wing, then they would
lose the support of some Of their oldest
and strongest men, who by right Of
seniority should become chairmen Of the
more important committees. When it
came to voting then the radicals would
fail without the votes OF the old timers.
lt.will be remembered that the repub.
licans could not have passed the last tar
id measure without the, votes Of four
democratic senators.
The writer points out that it might be
quite possible that the senate be reorgan-
ized by an entirely new alignment which
would ignore the old time party names
sad traditions, ,-whlch might mean tho
beginning Of the end Of both old parties.
Whatever the outcome It is evident
that it is going to take some pretty close
political figuring to mako the donkey
work true in tho U. 8. senate this next
session. and the democratic majority will
b Yery Gloss, IL they have ono at all; 30
that the donksy will need al his strength
to accomplish anything.

The Arizona State Live Stock
Sanitary Board held a meeting in
Tucson on Saturday, Sept. 81,
being called to decide what dis
position should be made of some
500 head of Mexican cattle sliced
at Nogales by the customs off
GERS. The Board ordered that
the cattle either be dipped once
and shipped out of the state in
side seven days. or be dipped
twice in accordance with previous
orders of the Board. Beside the
500 head above, there were 300
more which had been driven over
the border at the passage point
by the owner and which the
owner wished to ship from Ari-
iona soil. The commission or
dered that these cattle should be
dipped once, and that the owner
should at once then drive them
Tucson where they should be
loaded and shipped inside seven
days. There were several re-
quests of the stockmen of the
south to do away with the double
dipping order or what is COM
monty known as the quarantine
order and subject cattle brought
in to one dipping. However this
request was denied, there being
no ample reason for the setting
aside of the for former order.

A souvenir postcard picturing the Hotel

following original poem has just been re.

Taylor:
My Dearest Will:-
When you've little sill
To foot the bill,
Come out to Californy,
And put up at this house so swell
It's San Diego's best hotel
| am not stayin' here me sell
The reason you may know full well.
But those who bave-
And like to tell
Have said to me:
Its fine as"-well,
It's just the place to make stay
When you're not feeling truly gay;
In other words, when off your hay.
In short:
When you are i'll,
And life looks nil,
Don't take pill.
Come out to Californy.
California always invites, but this is a
special invitation to you. Just now Cali
fornia stands at the threshold of new
world relationship which means fresh
growth and still greater prosperity.
Come and share it with US, and live
where every month of the twelve means
health and happiness IN THE GREAT OUT

for land you will have nothing left to

Given Preliminary Hearing

Lee Carroll. the negro arrested at
Sugar City a couple OF weeks ago. was
given preliminary hearing in La Junta
on Wednesday and the evidence being
sufficiently strong. despite his protests to
the contrary. that he was the party who
had committed the recent series of bur-
glaries in this city. he was held to the
district court for trial.
The specific charge on Which he had a
hearing was that of breaking and enter
ing the home of ]. o. Baker and stealing
therefrom watch and chain. and the
evidence duplicating him with pawning
the watch in La Junta was positive.
