when as a matter of fact they are S134.OO for each man, woman and child in the state. This is about as accurate as anything else in the circular.
 The circular uses Dr. Huntington Williams of Montclair, New Jersey, in a lot of alleged statistics about Kan sas. This wet circular does not seem to know that the Williams statistics are utterly discredited because wholly unreliable. The insane statistics are derived not from the statistics of in sane persons in the state but from the statistics of insane patients in the hospitals, so that the state which treats its insane the most humane naturally makes the worst showing. And Kansas having more insane in the hospitals for treatment than Nebraska, makes the worst showing and this humanity is charged up as an evidence that prohibition makes Insanity. In other words, the liouor advocates would have you believe 1 that Kansas people become insane from sob.'iety. and that drunkenness is the only cure, and the only guar antee of sanity.
 | Why does the wet circular use Nebraska in comparison with Kansas? Why not take Arizona 1 Kansas has 7S3 prisoners in her | penitentiary, 3S of which are federal prisoners and not properly charged to the state. but this gives one pris oner to each 2160 people Arizona has 43S prisoners in her penitentiary or one prisoner to every 465 people In other words, Arizona has nearly five times as many prisoners in her penitentiary, according to population as Kansas.
 The wet circular attempts to ex- tract some comfort from the taxpayer circular issued by the Temperance i Federation, among which is the charge of 2 insane to Graham coun ty, dry, while Greenlee, with 5S sa- looms, has but 21 insane The author of the wet circular did not know that Graham and Greenlee counties were l formerly united under the name of Graham and that all of the insane ! were charged up to Graham county until the division, and that Graham county still bears the credit on the books fo. the insane of Greenlee county and that Greenlee. with her 5S saloons, since the division. has sent almost as many to the asylum as both counties had sent before. We arc willing to let this campaign be decided wholly upon the showing oi that taxpayer circular, because ever, table in it convicts the saloon of the charge of increasing court costs. tax. allon, debt, criminals and insane
 The wet circular also uses William Allen White as an argument against the amendment, though the whole purport of William Allen Whites ar tcle in the Saturday Evening Pos was to the effect that prohibition ir Kansas was a pronounced success. West Virginia went dry in on, night. and it has been dry ever since and the argument that a state mus take long series of years to go over a jag and sober up is the veries nonsense

BIG DELEGATION ID

 Month

Acting on the recommendations of the boards of trade and other com mercial organizations of the state, governor Hunt yesterday appointed thlrty-n nine delegates from Arizona to the Twenty first Internatio IT, rigation congress, to be held at Cal gary, Alberta, October 5-9 As the governor requested that the selec- tion of proposed delegates be limited to those who would be able to at tend, it is probable that Arizona will nave large representation at the congress.

SALOON ARGUMENT

The Royal Arch, an organization of saloon keepers, is the one or ganiZation that is directly interested in the defeat of the proposed con- stitutional amendment making Ari- zona dry. The head of this organ iZation, as president, is Eneas, or as he is commonly called, Amos" O'keefe, of Tucson. locally regarded as good fellow and remarkably snrewd as a politician and legisla- tive lobbyist. He will never do any thing for himself that he can get anyone else to do for him. He is wise enough to keep in the back
 ground and get someone else to rake lis chestnuts out tof the fife, so that he will never suffer the pain incident to burning his own fingers. His first move in the campaign gainst the dry amendment was to get some druggists together at the Adams hotel in Phoenix, to go on record against the amendment, so that the Royal Arch would not be compelled to take the initiative and show it's hand. Some of the drug gists were made innocent victims of the Royal Arch scheme and the whole movement fell flat, and those | who engaged in it are sorry they spoke.
 1 The next movement by MT OKeefe was to persuade his friend | Al Donau, to be the goat in a great scheme to be promoted by the "Ari-
 zona Business Mems Home Rule | League" of which Al was to bear 1 the high sounding title of president | Of course, no such organization was

OPEN FORUM FOR DEBATING
 STATE WIDE PROHIBITION

The very important issue of state- wide prohibition has been raised. A campaign in favor of a constitutional amendment will be shortly instituted. This, like all other important Ques- tions has two sides, on each of which are found honest and intelligent per- sons.
 The Republican has decided to pro- vide for a reasonable discussion of this issue in it's pages, allowing to each side at least half column daily for signed articles for which there will be no charge. No anonymous article will be published.
 It is only stipulated that the conn., munications for and against prohibi-
Arizona republican., 1914-09-04

tion be just and fair and that in no case shall there be any wild and ex- travagant statement that will in any way reflect upon the reputation O Phoenix for good order.
 It is suggested by The Republican that either side, desiring to avail it. self of this offer of space, name a committee through which all matter relating to the issue shall be trans mitted. In such case, all communica- tions received at this office from other sources will be rejected. We believe that this arrangement is ne- cessary to keep the discussion within reasonable lines.
 No paid advertisements from either side will be accepted,

Imp. Order of Red Men

Two recent happenings in our sis ter republic of Mexico are practical demonstrations that fraternal orders stand for far more than the mere payment of sick and funeral benefits or in the indulgence of social gath erings.
 One such incident is recorded in the Chicago Daily Journal. For some reason not altogether clear. V. E. Goodman, an American citizen and a member of a strong fraternal order, found himself in jail at Jua
 reg. No one knew anything of his condition until discovered by the na- tional secretary of the order and having verified his statements of in- nocence of any crime, sent dispatch in the name of the order to General i Villa, which resulted in his immedi ate release.
 Anothe.' incident was the recovery of the body of Clemente Vecgara by
 a fraternal order as reported by the San Francisco Examiner and com
 mented upon by the Fraternal Moni-
 tor This Mir Vergara had been
 lured across the boundary and exc
 cuted and the body buried by Mexi-

The day was warm but that did not stop the work, as the ladies are very anxious to com plete their second piece of work. During the afternoon delicious fruit punch was served and just before the sun lowered dainty refreshments were served by ou. charming hostess who never fails to please her guests. Besides the regular members of the club three visitors participated in the good work The club dispersed in the early evening, reporting a delightful time.

INTENSIVE SLEEPING

There seems to be such a thing as intensive sleeping, just as we have in- tensive gardening and farming. It has been shown eXperimentally that repose is deepest during the first hour or two, and that sleep becomes more shallow, more superficial, there after; and it is conceivable that by sleeping intensively for two or three hours we might secure as much act ual rest as we now obtain by dissi
 pating it over seven or eight hours. It would be interesting to know more than we do about comparative sleep in the various animals. The authorities state that birds, despite

 Now, whilst this fraternal body in question is not our beloved Order of Red Men, the spirit that actuated the daring move is just as much in evidence in our ranks, and we con- graduate our brothers, the Woodmen of the World for their thorough ex- republication of brotherly love, and pray for the time when this Chris tian principle of brotherly love shall dominate our lives.
