VOTE IVES" NOV. 3.

Nov. 3rd. is most here! Vote yes on the amendment to mako Arizona dry. Vote no on the wet or eight year amendmet! Why? Because "yes'' on Arizona Dry, means prohibition. If prohibition does hot prohibit, why are the liq- uor interests working so hard and spending so much money to defeat it? They are not doing it to lessen their sales and promote temper ance. They fight everything that lessens the sale of liquor and for that reason they are fighting the Dry m endment. Prohibition means better born children, better physically and mentally The best and latest scientific and medical authorities proves that any amount of alcohol is injurious to childhood. Prohibition means save the boys
 It takes about 100000 boys and girls each year to keep up the rank and file of the army of drunkards, over 25O every dayl More than ten every hour, day and night while you sleep. How many have you to give? Bring them on if you want to vote wet and perpet- uate the liquor traffic! Bring them on and be quick! It takes one every 6 minutes! Hurry! Fill up the ranks, some body's boy has fallen while you have been reading this and VI en you are through there will be two dead ones and the liquor traffic wants two new ones to fill their places bring yours Hurry!
 | No! Halt! Prohibition says Stop it! Save our young people! Save our young people and the drunkard will soon be gone they die fast they'll soon all be dead! And if the ranks are not kept full the liquor traffic will die a natu "a l death. And the liquor interests know this and say; "We must create appetite and keep open the saloon and keep up the temptation and so they vote WET and vote NO on prohibition. And the astound- ing, incompatible fact that some fathers and mothers also are going to vote wet with them and others do their best to help the accursed liquor interest to destroy their own children. And they do so witt, their eyes open. And the only ex- Icuse, not reason, the excuse they
 give is q mistaken, deluded, untrue notion they have, "a think so'
 that i t may save them a bit of tax UT SlNo tticiu DlG Ol .DuSl HESS. l But fact and statistics prove that even this is untrue and the opposite is true. They barter their boys booze. Prohibition stands for the protection of our girls
 The liquor traffic and the white slave traffic, the social glass ard the ''devils parlor" are partners enlisting recruits for hell. If you vote wet you become partner and join hands. And you know it!
 And God in the judgment will re- quire you to answer for it.
 | Prohibition stands for the home. , Intemperance causes disease, sor- row, trouble and want in the nome. These often lead to seperation and the breaking up of the. home
 And from such homes go a large percentage of the boys and girls who fill the reform schools. Vote yes on the amepdment to make Arizona dry. And vote no on the wet or eight year amendment and help save the boys, and the girls the home and prosperity.

THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET

The Democratic ticket is good ticket in all respects. The gentle men nominated for the various State and Federal offices gre tried and found to be efficient men.
 For United States Senator, Mar GUS A. Smith, is the nominee and present incumbent; it is useless to say word in behalf of Mark Smith, as we all know him of old, his official conduct has been of the highest.
 For Representative in Congress, Carl A. Hayden, is the nominee; Carl's capabilities are question: ble.
 For Governor, George W. P Hunt. Governor Hunts admins tration has been known and is known to be strictly business and economical administration. For Secretary of State, the demo- crats in their wisdom have nomi- mated Sidney P Osborne.
 For State Auditor, J. Callaghan, is the nominee; Mir. Callaghan's official conduct in the past has been of the highest, there is no question in the minds of the pub lie or the efficiency of the afore- named gentleman.
 For State Treasurer, Mitt Simms is the Democratic nominee.
 For Attorney General, Wiley E. Jones, the ''old wheel-horse of De- mocracy"; this is sufficient for our friend Wiley, as his efficiency and past record is unquestionable. For Superintendent of Public Instruction, C. o. Case, the present incumbent, is the nominee; Mr. Case having proven himself most capable and efficient officer; this office requires a great deal of atten- ton and consideration.
 For State Mine Inspector, G.. H. Bolin.
 For Corporation Commissioners, A. w. Cole, w. P. Geary and F. A. Jones, the present Commission, have been renominated by the democratic party. The aforenam ed gentlemen have been tried and found efficient, and as the duties require men of experience it be- hooves the people to re-elect the aforenamed.
 The ticket as it stands is a very good ticket, for the next two years the above named gentlemen having been tried and found to be capable in all respects should be reelected.
 Your kind consideration and the solicitation of your many friends in behalf of the aforenamed, at the coming election, November 3rd. 1914, will be greatly appreciated.

Judicial Responsibility.

From the Yale Review.
Uncertainty must always be the por-
ton of large part of the law. 1t may
assist toward certainty to reduce va
rious branches of the law into the form
of a statutory code, but uncertainty re-
mains. Society does not stay put; and
If the code lags behind. it is no longer
the governing law. New interpretations
will be found for constitutions and codes,
and new situations will arise for which
no code provides. Napoleon is said to
have remarked when the first commen-
tary appeared on the code Napoleon,
Mon code est perdu." He was right, but
he had no remedy If the open acknowl-
edgment of the fact that there are
many sources of law other than statute
and precedent is heresy in the legal
profession, SO much the worse for the legal
profession. Heresy or not, it is the fact.
always has been, and always will be. If
1t tends to reduce insignificant judges to
be law unto themselves and to lay down
new and arbitrary rules, we must face
the fact and deal with the judges. There
is high and ancient authority command
ing us to get understanding" What
though in the process old gods totterand
old systems perish. 1t is certain that
such an understanding of the function
of the judge as a lawgiver should i'm
press him with much greater sense of
his responsibility.

Against the Use of Slang.
ie New York Herald

From the New York Herald.
In an address in the Sunday morning
lecture course at the Park Avenue
Methodist Episcopal Church last Sun
day DR. Nicholas Murray Butler de-
cIared that the widespread use of slang
was threatening the purity of English
speech
The president of Columbia University
has uttered timely warning that all
thinking persons should heed. Slang
springs from the uneducated classes
and like disease and other unwhole-
some things, is contagious. Evil COM
munications corrupt speech as well as
manners. 1t is only by reading good
literature and associating with the cul-
tivated classes that we can become
masters of good English. Our educators
should labor for the maintenance OF
the highest standards of diction in or.
der that the English language may be
preserved pure and undehled.
