A local business man makes the
suggestion to us that y crest City
has not a single road through or to
the town but what goes over pri-
vate lands. In other words, Forest
City township has not got
a pu6lic highway now in use
that has ever been laid out
by the county commissioners.
This means that we have been put
ting road work for the last decade
on private land that is practically
a loss to the county and town. Our
county commissioners seem to act
like the man with the cart before
the horse: they are so fearful of
cost that they fail teetotally in the
matter of first establishing grades
and then getting estimates-a com
paratively light expense before
they appropriate the funds for
building such grade.
But when the statutes place
power and authority in the hands
of local community to build their
own roads, The Press does not
see the need of criticising far-away
county commissioners for neglect
of duty.

FAMOUS THEATER MANAGER SAYS MOVING PICTURES WILL HELP AND NOT
 DESTROY THE DRAMA

Tn the November Woman's Home Companion, Daniel Frohman of the famous theatrical managers in America, writes interesting article, entitled The Movies and the Theater' in which he discusses the question: Will moving pictures hurt the drama? In the his article Mir. Frohman makes clear his opinion that moving pie lures are not going to hurt the theater, but help it. He says in part:
 T believe the moving picture will be of the agents by which people will be brought back to the theater. For time, perhaps the galleries being emptied, and most assuredly for time dtion is going to hurt the theaters, d large part of the theater's profit is he gallery. it is only passing phase.
 "The theater is always going firm a rock Madame Sarah Bernhardt, is enthusiast about the moving picture said not long ago that the supreme human value of the stage, the question of personality, with which the mechanical compete, will alwaygs bring the pendulum swinging favor of the theater
 There is much be said amusement which have for But that is no reason why the galleries of theaters at the present time empty As a theater of some experience I have yet found the question of price debated a for empty leries largely empty because the people getting the plays, they want What the average theatergoer has always objected paying a disproportionate price for a poor seat and a poor play together when for ten twenty-five cents he could sit downstairs in a moving picture and get something he may be really interested in.'

"The way the the primrose path" Even the scrip tell a smooth, broad way leading amid false delights and fatal pleasures while the road in the other direction is straight, uphill and flanked by unalluring scenery.

 All the cattIemen represented in the exhibits have made money out of cattle by giving the attention to business that necessary o give any business to make it successful They have raised the kind of cattle that pay best They have selected the herds they by their own, the experience of others, yield the greatest returns. They have understood that herd cattle against the ravaging effect of time, and t1at it must be keptup to standard
 Those who have failed in the cattle business have abandoned it because of the fixed idea that a COW is a COW, and because they stop think that it costs O a as it costs to raise an $50 steer. All whose cattle are seen the fair understand the fallacy O the first proposition of the rectness of the second.
 No industry in Arizona has developed more rapidly within the twenty years than the busi ness of cattle raising Previous that time there were comparatively highy-bred cattle Ari- Such improvement of stock had been at tempted consisted in the turning of well-b bulls loose among herds letting it go that.

A Year of Suffraqe

For exactly year from yesterday the women of Arizona have enjoyed the privilege of suffrage with meager opportunities for exercising it. In city elections and special elections they have employed their privilege fully the men, and have really manifested greater interest in many questions than the
 It seems much longer than a year ago since the privilege of suffrage was conferred upon the women of Arizona It been back in the dark ages when they did not enjoy that privilege We wonder why they given it long be- fore, why it withheld from them and why it is withheld women of any civilized country.
 The selfishness denying the suffrage to women is of that species of barbarsm which made woman the slave of man. which Indian ride his pony while his wife trudges along behind laden with children burdens. We cannot ap- prove the methods of the militant suffragettes mainly the that those methods only post pOne the day when the suffrage be granted to English women, but understand why the less thoughtful of them engage in miIitancy.

 The women of Arizona had been subjected to greater contumely than the women O England. The latter have had their demands a nied in a dignfied a brusque style For many years the legislatures trifled with the women of Arizona, each house passing a suffrage bill. know ing that the other would defeat it. or, both ing it, knowing that the governor would it.
