WHAT DIVIDED

(From the Bennington Banner)

(From the Bennington Banner)
The republicans and progressives are
not widely separated. They both believe
in maintaining the protective principle.
They want a moderate reduction of the
tariff. without either the free trade doc
trines of the South on the one hand or
the extortonate trust fostering rates of
the plutocrats on the other They are
both opposed to the silly old slavocracy
doctrine of States rights" which stalks
as menace in all Democratic party coun-
ellis. Both the pregresaves and the re-
publicans are supporters of conservation,
popular control of public affairs, absolute
government control of monopolies and
scores of other fundamental principles.

a large bottle for about 50 cents. Some druggists make their own but it's usually too sticky, so insist upon getting "Wyeth's" which can be de pended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is the, best remedy for dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp, and to stop falling hair.
 Folks like "Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur" because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly, says we'll known downtown druggist. You dampen a sponge or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at time. This requires but few moments; by morning the gray hair disappears, and, after an other application or two, Is restored to it's natural color and looks even more beautiful and glossy than ever.

NEW MEXICO SYSTEM 0F TAXATION MUST
 BE REVISED
LEGISLATURE FINDS BIG DEFICIT ON LEDGER AT THE END
 OF THE FIRST YEAR

SANTA FEE, N. M, Jan. 14.-Some serious problems are to be solved by the legislature of New Mexico, which convened today for the first regular session since statehood. Occupying first place on the agenda are the sub jects of taxation and revenue. The new state closed the first year of it's career with big sum on the wrong side of the ledger It is, therefore, up to the lawmakers to revise the states taxation scheme so that in flu. ture the income may cover the ex. penses of the state government.
 Of the many legislative measures that will be proposed for consideration the mast important, from the stand point of public interest, will be those dealing with statewide prohibition and local option.
 Both proposals were defeated by a narrow margin in the constitutional convention. Since then the tenn perance element has waged vigor- ous campaign, and it is certain that one or both of the measures will be among the first to be introduced at this session

FOR CLEANER BREAD

While the American people are mighty finicky about some of their foodstuffs, yet the baker wagon still throws bread around with a care equal to that of handling old shoes when wedding parties depart. Senator Nc Cumber, of North Dakota, has start ed the ball rolling for reform by mak- ing it a misdemeanor, punishable by heavy fine, to sell bread unless it is wrapped in paper or some suitable protection. And, like the agitation against the public drinking cup, the cry for 'clean bread' will continue to grow until it becomes a universal cus- tom to keep the staff of life in sani- tary state,

He would leap fifteen feet to the right or left AS the rider never knew which way steamboat" was going. and as he never took more than two jumps in the same direction. he became famous as the worst outlaw horse in the world.

MINERAL WEALTH OF
 COUNTRY IMMENSE

The average price for silver for the year is stated at 609 cents an ounce.
 In lead, the preliminary figures Of the Survey show a small decline in 1919 from the output of refined lead' de-silverized and soft, from foreign and domestic ores, being 4S0,965 short tons in 1912 and 4s6,976 short tons in 1911. The value of the 1912 output is stated at s4S,2S6,S50. The domestic production of lead ore is stated to be about 10000 tons greater than the 1911 output of 441,1S7 short tons.
 In the zinc industry the figures show Q phenomenal activity. The produc- ton of primary spelter in 1912 is estl- mated at 323,S61 short tons from do- nestle ores and 14,669 tons from for eignL ores, a total of 33S,6SO tons, val ued at s46,731 ,OOO, compared to 2S6,- s2s tons. valued at $32.66S,s6 in 1911.
 Quicksilver production in 1912 shows a heavy gain over the 1911 produc- ton, which itself showed great gain over that Of 1910. The 1912 figures are stated at 25,147 flasks of 75 pounds each. worth s42.04 pound, or $1,O57,- 1Se.
 The production of iron ore in 1912 was, according to Survey estimates from S5 to 32 per cent greater than that of 1911, the figures for 1912 being between 54, 4,500.0 900 and 57,500,000 long tons, against 43,550,633 tons in 1911. It is believed possible that the record figure of 66,SSs,7S4 tons produced in 1910 may be exceeded by the 1912 out put.
 The United States continued to leac the world in petroleum production in 1s1eEin fact, produced more than ali the rest of the world-and is estimat cd to have about maintained the tre- mendous record of 220, ,391 barrels made in 1911. The Geological Sur vey's estimate for 1912 is O,2O0,000 barrels. The estimated value of the 1912 output, however, is much great ar than that O. 1911, the figures being 315o, o,00o, 900, against $134,144,752.

Overton N. Hendricks, formerly sec. retary of the Yuma County Commer- cisl Club, who is temporarily located at Los Angeles. has read in the Yuma 'Bxaminer that Yuma oranges and lemons escaped the frost, and, in a communication to The Examiner to- day, he says.
 Say! Why don't those people down there wake up and send me some oranges or lemons or something to show that we don't have frost in Yuma. I'm awfully busy, but not so much so that it would be impossible for me to place on exhibition anything sent up to me. How long did Rip Van Winkle sleep, anyway? I am giv- ing short lectures on Yuma Valley everyday at the Sunset Magazine ex- hibit, and a talking point like un- frosted oranges would send more peo- pie to Yuma than a gold strike"

Marriage and Disparity in Age
By WINTER ED BLACK

now, for the woman is vital sort o1 person-strong, full of life and energy active and fond of all that living means.
 The man is quiet, gentle, found o1 routine. He'd rather stay at home every evening of the week than gC to the finest play that ever was acted The woman would rather go to the play than anything else. They com promised by going once week, and the man stays at home and reads il comfort the other six, and the wom an entertains herself with her owI friends in her own way. So it has all turned out for the best The woman who was four years older on the wedding day, is ten years the younger now. Simply matter of dis position and temperament, that's all She's the sort that stops growing old at thirty; he's the sort that stops be ing young at thirty-five. And there they are-very comfy, thank you, and highly amused at the idea that there could be anything unsuitable about their marriage.
 When a man falls in love with a woman, he isn't thinking of her age he's thinking of the woman and Of himself, and age hasn't thing in the world to do with it.
 Brains, character, taste, education these are far more important than mere matter of slight difference in age. & How goes the old rhyme?
 If he knows not the language of the Flowers,
 If he loves not to hear the blast blow, If he dotes not on ruins and towers,
 My own Araminta, says No"
 Nothing about the age limit there you see-not syllable.
 Marry the man you love if only six years divide you; and, if you are not happy together, it will will not be the difference in age that will bring you sorrow.
 Bless you, my children. Bless you If you never have anything more seri- ous to worry you than those six little years, you'll be more suitably" mar ried than many of those who will be scandalized.

THE "sIMPLE INAUGURATION"

 While President-elect Wilson is
 pleading for simplicity in inauguration plans, the impression is gaining throughout the country that the com ing event on March 4 will be the most resplendent affair in the history of the national capital. And so it will! The. simple ceremony which will off cialiy induct MT. Wilson and Mir Marshall into office will be plain enough, but with the growth and de- velopment of the country has come the expansion of it's civic and mili- tary organizations, and every one of these organizations that can raise the dust is going to Washington, and all their brass buttons and tinseled drap- cries are being furnished for the oc- casion MT Wilson can have things as simple as he pleases, and the com mittee is trying to accommodate him, but so far as the thousands of visiting officials and semi-officials are concern ed it would take more than the com- 1 bined army and navy to curb them.

WAS SURPRISED AT
 THE VAST CHANCE

J. B. Walters, of Prescott, is a visi tor in Yuma. MT. Walters, who was T U. s. A veterinarian (having serv- ed from 184S to 1879), visited Yuma several times in the line of duty while in the service, but he had not seen the town since his retirement, and it may we'll be believed that he was as tonished at the changes that had oc cured meanwhile.
 At the time of his last previous wis t, the town was principally in the flat between Prison Hill and the mesa here being just a few houses at the eoot of the hillsides and four or five n the bank of the river below the 1uartermaster depot, now oc"unied by he U. S. Reclamation Servioo.
 All of the houses were of adobe or poles plastered with mud, and all had 1irt floors. Water was hauled to the residences in barrels drawn by bur -os, or carried by Indians, in buckets. The streets were mere ruts with sev- aral inches of loose sand in the bot tom.
 The old gentleman passed his eighty sixth birthday last Friday. He is re- markably active and well preserved for one of his years, being able to
 
 with a steady hand. He belongs to 8 family remarkable for longevity, his mother being 112 years of age and still living in St. Louis, and six of his brothers still live ranging in age from eighty-three to ninety-five.

We'll, my dear, what do you want me to say, and I'll say it, for really you are going to do just as you wish about it after all, aren't you? And why shouldn't you, pray tell?
 You love the man and he loves you He is able to take good care of you. You are unhappy away from him and he wants you with him. What is there for you to do but to marry him and say no more about it?
 Six years older than he? Is that the objection? Not half an objection as if he were just the right age for you and drank; or if he were dis honest; or if he likes one kind of life and you like another. There is all ways something, but this matter of a few years difference in age is not one of the really serious objections to marriage, after all.
 The most miserable woman l know married a man five years older than she was She is as pretty as picture and as good as gold. But the man is dead in love with an elderly widow and the wife's heart is broken.
 Six years older are you? In years you mean, of course; but how much older are you in all the things that count? Years are such deceitful little things? They mean less than almost anything else.
 Some women are old at thirty; some are young at forty. Some men are boys at thirty, and some boys are men at twenty. What sort of a wom- an are you and what kind is the man you love?
 Another woman I know married a man four years younger than herself. He looked ten years younger, for the woman had much responsibility, much care and much sorrow in her life.
 When they were married all the men said: Hes making a mistake. ; And all the women said: She'll live to regret it." AS matter of fact, it Is turning out to be much happier marriage than some of the marriages made by the people who criticised it as unsuitable"
 The man and woman who started your years apart are just about even
