Y THEY'RE GETTING

o. it must have been done behind
the scenes.
The principal orator was Senator
William E. Borah. who, according to
Speaker Clark, is sure to be the next
republican nominee for president. He
took Monopoly" for his text and but
for its incidental and rather perfume
tory. criticism Of democratic tariff re-
vision, his address might have been
discourse on the exegetics of the new
freedom.
For Dan Hanna, G. w. Perkins and
the rest of the vast amount of vir-
tue that the republican party at p.
m. on June %. 1912" he held out no
hope of future happy home in the
G.. o. p. Their plausible but decep-
tive and perilous plan to perpetuate
monopoly and license it to prey on
the public under regulation was saw
agely denounced by him-as savagely
as Missouri compromises and Wilmot
provisos and other opportunist at
tempts TO deal with another great evil
might now be denounced in the light
of history. His robust declaration
that "a republic and monopoly can
not exist under the same flag was
good new freedom doctrine. It need
ed no change in its phrasing to ex-
press something more than the sound
truth il carried on its face. That there
is only a bleak and cheerless pros.
pect of elephant and Bull Moose ever
again existing under the same tent
was its further obvious meaning.
How can man who denounces the
unfair, preferential forms of oppor
tunity that are the essence Of mono-
ly fail to denounce also the tariffs
unfair and preferential taxation Of
the many for the benefit of the few?
However, he cut through sham to the
fundamentals in this: Put the man
in Jail who organizes a monopoly and
practices monopoly as quickly as a
man who organizes a combination Of
thieves
The G. o. P might be wished no
worse fate than to have as it's leader
in 1916 a man capable of Mr.. Borah's
smashing blows-St. Louis Post De-
spatch.

PARLIAMENT.
QUEEN vICTORIA'S FIRST

When called upon to open the first
parliament after her accession to the
throne in 1897, Queen Victoria was
only Is years old. London was then.
as now, fond of royal state occasions
and the people turned out in great
numbers to witness the ceremony.
The house of lords was besieged
within and without. Troops of peer
esses, determined to gain entrance to
the peeresses' gallery, were in the
habit at that time. of taking the
doors by storm whenever they desir-
| ed to hear a stirring debate, or when
some one was speaking whom they
| wished especially to hear. To guard
against any such riotous behavior on
the occasion of the young queens
state ceremony, the lord chamberlain
had granted special orders of admis-
sion to these unruly ladies. In con-
sequence, clad in their most magnifi-
4 cent garments and fairly sparkling
with diamonds and other precious
stones, they filled the whole Of the
benches on the floor and invaded the
two side galleries. The scene was
brilliant beyond description, present.

a simmer like starshine from the

Presently Queen Victoria came in.
hush fell on the assembly. and all
rose to their feet while she walked
with the utmost dignity to her seat
on the throne. Having arrived there
she signified her desire that all should
be seated. The commons were then
summoned to her presence. The door
was opened and the sound OF hurry
ing feet outside was heard "as IL 1t
had been of the hoofs Of three or four
score quadrupeds." Every one turn

rent Of members Of the lower house
poured In helter-skelter and rushed
toward the bar Of the house of lords.
Never before had such struggle

best place for both hearing and see

was restored the queen rose. She
took the oath against popery "in a

speech. In hushed silence the i'm

An Unfriendly Neighbor

In the County of Yavapai, Coco. nino county has an unfriendly neighbor. The News has heard this claim made for some time but had hesitated to believe such a thing of neighboring county for which it harbored no illwill. How ever, a little investigation has proved beyond any possible doubt that Yavapai county, or more &C., curately speaking-Prescott assum- ing to be Yavapai county-has made a premeditated effort to in jure our county. This has been done by leaving that part of the Old Trail road along the Santa Fe,

Criminal Road Negligence

For some time the News has heard decidedly unfavorable re- ports as to the condition of that part of the Wiiliams-Ash Fork road which lies within Yavapai county. Disliking to critise a neighboring county without first making positively sure that any criticism which we might offer was more tn an merited. We have with held comment until such a time as we could get over the road in question and examine it care fully. Last Saturday the editor enjoyed(?) such an opportunity.
 The part of the old Santa Fe Trail road which'lies between Will iams and Ash Fork is in very, good condition from Williams to the dividing line between Yavapai and Coconino Counties. But, the three miles from the county line on into the railroad crossing just this side of Ash Fork, is almost beyond description. Ap- parently, the road has had abso- lutely no work done on it for a number of years. It is just about IS rocky as human nature will en- dure without resort to violent ac- tions, and it gives testimony of the washing and rutting resulting from the rains of perhaps a decade. Add to this prairie dog holes and mounds scattered along in the road at frequent intervals, to say noth-, ing of tte curves in the road and the two gates to be opened and shut, and we may get faint idea of what the road is like. It is morally criminal for the authorities responsible for the care of this road "a public road over which the public is bound to travel-to per init it to remain in its present in- tolerable condition.

An aeroplane filled a new office of usefulness this week on lake Washington near Seattle, Washing. ton. The aeroplane was racing with a motor boat when a small boat containing three people watch ing the race was run down by a Ferry boat. The man running the aeroplane saw the accident and immediately went to the drowning peoples rescue and saved them. This is new field of usefulness for the aeroplane rut the mac hine proved its proficiency at such task The aeroplane is fast becom- ing practical and useful machine. To what varied uses it may be put in the future is as yet but matter of conjecture, but the day will very likely come when aeroplanes will become as common as auto mobile are now and will be preferr- ed as a means of travel.

which lies in Yavapai county, in about as nearly an impossible con- dition as the elements coupled with usage could make it, and then by deliberately advising all tourists going north to the Grand Canyon, NOT to go thru Williams but to take the desert road north iron, Ash Fork. This in face of the fact that the desert road spoken of has never received any work worth mentioning, has no scenic attract iveness and cannot compare favor ably with the road from Ash Fork to Williams and then north to the Grand Canyon. Fortunately the judgment of tourists has generally proved better than the bad advice of our unfriendly neighbors and g out of every ten tourists taking the direct route from Prescott to Grand Canyon have come by Williams.
 The motive back of Prescott in in this matter is easily detected. The Old Santa Fe Trail road does not pass thru Prescott. Hence they would kill it.
 There seems to be little that Coconino people can do just now to induce Prescott to deal fairly by northern Yavapai and her neigh bors, but there is some satisfaction in knowing what these Prescott schemers are about, and why.

The Knowledge Contest

The News is conducting a know. ledge contest this week. This con- test is open to every reader of the News and it is hoped that many will enter the contest. It costs nothing to enter and anyone who enjoys. puzzles of any sort will be amply rewarded for their effort just from the enjoyment derived trying to guess the names of the firms and makes of goods asked for, even if they do not happen to be the lucky ones to secure one of the prizes. Those who get prizes will, of course. be doubly fortunate.
 The col test lasts only one week. The right answers will be publish ed next week.
 Mr. H. c. Corpe of Phoenix is conducting the contest for us. He works on a commission basis. The firms who have advertisements >in the contest, get them at reason able advertising rates and have no more to pay so that the contest is square all around, and all may feel assured of fair treatment.
