politicians-men who crawl under the canvas to public offices and then proceed to vent their spleen through their public acts. This class of men do not in any sense represent the high class of Arizona citizenship which has characterized Arizona from its early days. And all such men will end their official life after the next regular election IS held. This state is too big, its in- terests too important and its future too promising to be allowed to rest in the hands of small men and weak vacillating characters. The cry of ''progressiveism" will not save these men. That term is being over worked till 1t is fast becoming by word among men of thought and ac- tion. It aided these men to ride into office, but it requires brains,
 integrity and broad gauged men to manage the affairs of the state, and just watch the action of the democ- racy of Arizona at the next primary election, and note the complete overturning of this class of pie hunters.

THE proposed amendment to the federal constitution providing for popular election of United States senators has been ratified by thirty six state legislatures, and it is now law. No legislation by congress will be necessary to put the change into effect. It will be incumbent upon the various states to see to ii that proper provision is made by the names of senators going on the regular ballots. Should any state fail to do so, it has been suggested that congress might exercise its power of supervising that states voting regulation so as to require the name to be placed on the bal lots.

With reference to the future, Gen
eral Diaz processes to be through with
politics and rebellions and says he will
ask nothing better, so long as his
country is in its present state, than

to agree with Diaz: he has regained
his color and his worried expression
of few days ago has disappeared.
1T is strange inconsistency" he
said today. that a batleship should be
so safe a place." He appears thor
oughly to appreciate the admiral's
mess, declaring the food served is
much better than anything ashore.

NEW LIABILITY STATUTE
Wisconsin W0rkmen'S Com

Interesting Features.

MADISON, Wis. June PA new work
mems compensation act approved by Gov.
McGovern today and which goes into ef-
feet September 1 provides that every EN-
ployer of four or more persons will be
subject to the provisions of the act unless
he specifically elects otherwise. The
benefits to injured employees or their de-
pendents remain almost unchanged, the
chief exceptions being in the case OF
workmen permanently disabled, in which
event the compensation ic extended six
years from the date of the injury. Fol
lowing the lead of a score of states, the
new act abrogates the defense of con-
tributory negligence. The act of 1911
abolished only the two defenses of as.
sumption of risk and negligence of a fel-
low-servant
The provision under which employers
automatically will come under the law
unless they elect to the contrary will af-
feet approximately 1000 employers in the
state, 1,5OO employers having already
come under the law
The new act contains provisions of con.
siderable Importance to contractors, who
are made liable for injuries to employees
of subcontractors. Special provision is
made. however, for the contractor to pro.
| tect himself against losses. A new sec.
ton requires all employers to carry insur-
| ance unless exempted by the industrial
commission.
