Bee Economics.

The organization of bee life is a
fascinating study. The workers in
a beehive may be divided into (1)
harvesters, who bring in honey and
pollen from flowers, wax from buds
Of pines and poplars, water to mix
with pollen and honey to make the
pasty food for the larvae; (2) scav-
eugers, who in early morning carry
out debris, including dead, sick or
injured workers; 81 ventilators,
who stand erect and keep their
wings in continual movement in or
der TO ventilate the hive; az
guards, who defend the hive from
wasps, robber bees and other enc
mics.

Absentminded.

Sir John Burden Sanderson was
VIGOROUSLY absentminded. OF the
cycle of aneedote that gathered
around him much was fabricated.
The story of his boiling his watch
while holding an egg in his hand,
often related also of Newton, is in
La Bruyere's "Caracteres." But
there seems TO be some foundation
for the suspicion that in his lab
oratory he once lunched on a frog
and was afterward found deeply
contemplating a sandwich.

An old family coach with the

The expected guest was a portly

wear a cap of a certain shade on
Sunday, also that it should be made

THE WORLD CRY OF THE
MADONNA

Magic name-Madonna! Think
what it has meant in the symphonic
weavings of history! And at the
time Of Christmas it takes on a
peculiar power to evoke memories
and prophecy. 1t is always more
than the sign of a special devotion.
It is the symbol of all motherhood.
Thus, in this hour of the worlds
travail. it stands as never before to
condemn all that assails the peace
in which rests the right nurturing
of the race. 1t names the Mother
Cry. From all over the troubled
earth it rises in passionate protest
against the slaughter of sons and
the bereavement of daughters. it
speaks for free and happy chill
dren, natural brotherhood, unstained
hearths and every noble sentiment
that wreaths the sanctity of Home.
It mourns both brothers in the
fratricidal savagery of war. 1t
points to wounds deeper than those
torn in the flesh of blinded COM
batants. 1t rebukes, with tear
drenched eyes, the civilization that
seems to have remembered every
thing but the eternal needs of the
human heart.
With the troubled past behind US,
with the troubled present humming
horribly in the ears of the race, this
is the mother cry Of the Christmas
that is dawning-the cry for peace
and good will toward all men,

GOOD ROADS DAY

Col. Epes Randolph says that
within the next four months at least
100000 people will pass through El
Paso gateway on their way to the
expositions, and fully one-half should
be routed by way of Bowie and
Globe and thence to Roosevelt dam
and Phoenix by automobile.
Col. Randolph believes that the
people from the East will come this
way, but that it will be necessary
to have the road between Globe and
Roosevelt putin first. class condition.
The people of Gila and Maricopa
counties undoubtedly will get busy
and put the road in fine condition
for automobile travel, and this re-
minds US that it would be a good
idea if we got busy right now and
made good roads through our county
TO the Gila county line.
At the present time our roads are
sadly in need of repairs and work
should start with as little delay as
possible to put every road in a con-
dition that automobiles and other
vehicles will have no trouble going
through to Gila county.
Money for road work is scarce
and probably will be for some time

THE BOOZE ARGUMENT AN.
SWERED

John Barleycorn has been routed
again. 1t is increasingly difficult for
one who drinks to find employment
in any responsible position The
railroads cannot afford to entrust a
train or a track to a befuddled
brain; the steamship companies dare
not put a tippler in charge of a
vessel; and the factories and stores
must have clear. headed men for
managers. In the arts Of peace
total abstinence has become more
and more the order of the day; and
now we find that alcohol is losing it's
grip on the soldier. If Intoxicating
liquor does not help a fighter to
whom, pray can it be useful? 1t is
the fruitful cause of rows and as
sauIts, as the police records will
prove; even animals have been cited
to prove that it inspires physical
courage. Have we not been tod of
whiskey that viii make a jacki#bbit
spit in a buI'dag's face, and Of
champagne that will encourage a
mouse to challenge a cat? But, be-
hold, the war departments of the
world are turning agai S. intoXi-
cants. The use Of liquor being for,
hidden in the army and the govern
ments are so pleased with the re-
suits that the movement is spread
ing. Let the good work go on

get together on proposition for q
good roads day or several days for
volunteer roadwork In this way
men and teams could work the roads
at small cost to each individual,
but the combined efforts of all would
result in a large amount of good
road work being accomplished in a
short time.
Those who have no teams or who
could not give the time away from
business, could contribute 81 90 per
day, for one day or several days,
as their share IN the work. There
are a great number Of idle men in
the valley who could be put to work
repairing the roads, and the money
paid In by those who could not work
on the road themselves, would meet
this expense for labor.
A regular organization could hc
effected that would divide thecounty
road from the Greenlee county line
to the ella county line into sections
and the forces divided up to work
each section. This would keep those
living near each section on that par
ticular section OF road and not too
far away from home.
Whenever the peOp,e of this county
have united and given q day for
road work, it has always turned out

that will come this way in the next

1t would be a good idea for the

WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE AND
PROHIBITION

Some of the democratic editors
profess to misunderstood the i'm
port of the two editorials in the last
issue of The Commoner, one entitled
The Alcoholic Milestone" and the
other an editorial in support Of
woman's suffage.
These editors seem to consider
the above mentioned editorials as
an endorsement of national amend
ments favorable to prohibition and
woman's suffrage, but a careful
reading of them will reveal the fact
that while the former plainly pro-
tests against the domination of the
democratic party by the liquor in
terests, and the latter as plainly
supports woman suffrage, they re-
late to these issues as they present
themselves in the various states.
A two.thirds vote of the two
houses of congress is required for
the submission of an amendment to
the national constitution. and then
the amendment must be ratified by
three-fourths Of the states. There
is no reason to believe that prohi.
bition amendment or a suffrage
amendment would, at this time, be
ratified by three -fourths of the
states, even if it secured vote of
two-t thirds of the two houses. Be-
Iieving in both wOman'S suffrage
and the abolition of the liquor traffic
| would vote for either amendment
if submitted, but the time does not
seem opportune for the submission
of either of these amendments. A
national contest for either amend
ment would simply divert attention
from other issues upon which the
people are ready to act, without
advancing the cause of wOman's
suffrage or the prohibition move
ment.
These questions are, however. at.
issue in the states, and as demo-
crat | am interested in seeing the
party take the normal side of both
questionS-the side that appeals to
young men who are coming out of
our schools and colleges and who as
sumo the obligations of citizenship
with a vision of better things.
Every new issue causes a new align
ment; in proportion as it is an i'm
pO"tant issue it brings about chang S
in party affiliations. If the demo.
cratic party takes the side of tie
brewer, the distiIler and the saloon
keeper, it will lose many of its best
members and it will draw to Itself
the worst element Of the republican
party-and the democratic party
cannot afford to invite an element
that puts desire for drink before
principles of government and the .
nations welfare. The more wei
have of that element, the more
difficult it will be to draw to
us those whose presence gives
strength to a party and whose voice
and example increase its numbers.
The democratic party cannot be
killed, even by association with so |
communicating an influence as the
liquor interests. but why should the
party allow itself to be debauched
and disgraccd? 1t would take u
