Shall Learn War No More

"And it shall come to pass in the last
days " that many people shall go and
say Beat your swords into plOw-
shares. your spears into pruning hooks.
Nation shall not lift up sword against
nation, neither shall they learn any
more. Micah. Alb, read also lisa. 2:1-e.
Please observe that the language of
this prophecy is the language of 'many
people," In this case the voice of the
people is not the voice of God. True,
the Lord said, that ''many people"
would say this, and they are saying it,
but alas! Many think the Lord has
said it. Reader can you not discern
the difference between the words God
(see Joel 1918 and those o. ''many
people" The prophecy of Isaiah and
Micah declare that ''many people"
would not agree with the Lord regard
ing the question of wars and rumors of
wars.
The present war throughout Europe
is strangely out of harmony with the
views of many people, "who have been
expecting an era of perfect peace. And
who have claimed that our great military
and naval powers were so strong that
none will dare to start fight. And so
deceived are the ''many people" that
even amid the din of battle their voices
that assure peace will no doubt rise
higher and higher. "For when they
shall say peace and safety then sudden
destruction cometh upon them and they
shall not escape" 2 Thess. 5:3.

THE ARIZONA FAIR
Arizona's Chief Product,
'"The Arizona Baby to
Have a Show

With suffrage and the suffragette,
there came upon the Arizona State
Fair Commission a demand that
space be given in the program to
Arizona's chief product--the Arizona
Baby.
The Arizona Mothers Congress
declared it was a shame that such
liberal premiums should be given
for calves, colts, pigs. lambs and
even little chickens, and nothing for
the Arizona baby.
The Commission declared that
they would either do it right or do
nothing at all, and they decided to
do it right"
This year the department of babies
holds the first place in the premium
list, and it is not devoted simply to
baby show, a be-ribboned, be-
starched, dainty little lace affair
with the judge trying to pick the
prettiest one, which nobody on earth
could do, but this is to be real
genuine scientific baby showdown.
The babies are to be judged ac-
cording to the score card plan. One
thousand points for the perfect baby,
and so many points taken off for
every defect. Skilled doctors and
trained nurses will be in attendance
The babies will be undressed,
weighed, measured, tested in every
way and from every point and angle
that the standard of perfection and
the score. card demands.
Ruffles, ribbons, and iaces will be
at a discount and count for nothing
1t will have to be real baby and
be just as sweet and perfect as it
looks, or it will lose under this
scientific up-to-date live stock plan.
The babies will be classed and
scored as other live stock, and judged
strictly from a live stock standard,
by standard of perfection that has
been agreed upon by the baby scien
fists of the world.
Medals, diplomas and beautiful
rosette ribbons will be the prizes.
Complimentary tickets will be given
to each mother and her child upon
the day on which it is examined and
scored.
Judging of babies between the
ages of 6 and IL months will be on
Monday, the first day of the Fair;
those between the age of l3 and "a
months will be judged on Tuesday;
and children from the age of ,25 to
SO mon hs will be judged on Wednes s.
day. Awards will be made on Satur-
day. the last day of the Fair.
Mrs. J. C. Norton, President of
the Mothers Congress of the State
of Arizona, has agreed to act as su-
perintendent of this department,
and the Mothers Congress of the
State of Arizona have agreed to take
charge of this department and see
that it is conducted according to the
latest up-to.date standards and along
purely scientific lines.

UNITE ON ONE

1t is very evident that most of
the people of the west side Of the
Graham mountains-Bonita. Klon-
dyke and Aravaipa-are of the opin-
ion that only by united front can
they secure representative on the
board of supervisors, and this is the
view taken by the people of the val.
ley, irrespective of party affiliations.
1t will be grave mistake if the
people of the west side of the county
fail in their duty to themselves and
come out in the primary with two
candidates.
1t would be much better to select
one man from among their number
and agree on him as their candidate
and insure his election as a member
of the board of supervisors,
To many of US here it is rather
strange, indeed. that the people on
the west side of the county cannot
settle on one candidate for this inn
portant Office. specially important to
the west side.
In union there is strength, also
wisdom, and it should not be hard
for the people over there to get to-
gether and unite ON one candidate
for supervisor.
We believe the light is breaking
at least in Bonita, and this belief is
carried out by the following letter
from Miles l.. Wood, who declares
in favor of Mr.. Quinn as candi-
date for supervisor, at the same
time withdrawing his name as a can
didate for the position:
BONITA, ARIZONA,
August l0, 1914.
EDITOR OF The GUARDIAN,
Stafford, Arizona.
DEAR SlR:-I have leen urged by
the people of this, the west side of
Graham county, to come out as
candidate for supervisor on the re-
publican ticket. But as James,
Quinn, of Klondyke, has announced
that he is a candidate for the office,
and as | do not wish to divide the
vote, Withdraw my name in favor
of Mr.. Quinn.
AS we all know that we are en-
titled to be represented ON the board,
believe and hope that Mr. Quinn
will receive a solid vote. without re-
gard to party lines.
Respectfully, .
MILES l.. WooD.

Summer Constipation Dangerous

Constipation in summer time is
more dangerous than in the fall,
winter or spring The food you eat
is often contaminated and is more
likely to ferment in your stomach.
Then you are apt to drink much
cold water during the hot weather,
thus injuring your stomach. Collie,
fever, ptomaine poisoning and other
ills are natural results. Po-Do-Lax
will keep you well, as it increases
the bile, the natural laxative, which

who reads the warnings? What i'm
impression do these fulfill ng prophecies
make upon worldlings? What change

No more than was seen in the attitude
of the inhabitants of the Noatic world.
Absorbed in worldly business and pleas

warnings but they refused to listen.
And today the world utterly regardless
of the warning voice of God in these
fulfilling prophecies is hurrying on to
it's eternal ruin. For as it was in the
days of Noah so shall it be in the day of
the coming of the Son of man" Reader

The Alarm of War

What burning emotions must have
been surging in the mind of the prophet
jeremiah, when he eXclaimed:"I can
not hold my peace, because thou hast
heard 0 my soul, the sound of the
trumphet, the alarm of war;" The
terrible scenes of the battle of that
great day were no doubt passing before
his vision. He hears the alarm of war;
the awful weapons that have been
forged against the day of Armageddon,
are doing there awful work; city after
city is demolished under the frightful
hammering of shot and shell; ship after
ship goes down with it's dead strewn
decks; regiment after regiments is moved
down by the swift scythe of the war
god; the earth is burdeneG with the
dead; the homes of the people are in
desolation, and sorrow is on every hand.
1t is the sight of all these things that
stirs every emotion of the prophets
soul. See jeremiah, 4:l9, 20. The
most vivid imagination of the human
mind cannot picture the awful whole
sale crimes that will be perpetrated
throughout Europe at this time.

Tobacco Pooling Knocked Out.

The United 5 ates Supreme Court
last Monday annull ID the Kentucky
statute allowing farmers to pool to
bacco, declaring the law to be un.
constitutional. This is far-reach
ing, and will prohibit the pooling of
any crop or commodity, and means
much to the farmers of the State, as
uniform prices at higher level
have been secured under .the
operations of this law. The decis-

Fire Destroys Tobacco Factory.

About 7.So O'Clock last Friday
morning smoke was discovered in
5. +. Rice Tobacco Co. building,
near the depot, and flares soon
had enveloped the upper floor. The
concern had its own fire hose, and
soon had two streams on the flames,
but the fire continued to gain head
way, and before any of the stock or
equipment of any value could be
saved, the roof had collapsed, filling
the lower floors with fire, and the
building was quickly reduced.
There was a stiff breeze, and resi-
dences at great distance were en-
dangered by falling fagots, but there
was no loss This is the third
building that has been burned on
this site, the first time when Mr.. +.
Rice was the owner, and the two
last times under present ownership.
The origin of the fire is not posi-
lively known, but it is thought that
birds caused the fire, as there were
great many nests in the loft, near
the roof, and it was in that section
where the flames were first seen.
Insurance to the amount of $50, 500
was carried on the building, stock,
machinery and equipment, but this
will leave a loss of something like
$40, 900 to the owners, besides a
considerable loss of business that
will ensue. The matter of rebuild
ing or buying a plant is now under
consideration, and will soon be
brought to a decision. The loss is
general one, as about IS hands
are thrown out of employment.
This concern is one of tic most act
i've in the city, and has wonderfully
developed Its business IN the past
few years, so the misfortune is very
serious 10 them.
