SMASHING wINDMILLs

Antwerp, Nov. Orders to
Smash up the windmills anywhere

It has been found that the Flemish
windmilIs are as dangerous as they
are picturesque. Many Of them sur
mount lofty brick bases which give
the wheels total height Of rs or 100

The Germans were quick to avail
themselves Of these high windmills as

PROVIDING
SHELTER FOR
BELGIANS
THEIR CITIES RESOURCES ARE
TAXED, HOWEVER, TO GIVE
ACCOMMODATIONS

Bergen op zoom, Holland, Nov. 20.
Conditions among the Belgian refu-
gees crowded into this little city are
typical of the situation in all Dutch
towns near the Belgian border. With
q population OF 10000 ordinarily, Ber-
gen op zoom now shelters about TO-
900 persons. Most of the homes have
given over rooms to refugees. Barns.
warehouses, churches and other pub
lic buildings have been turned into
dormitories and eating houses
During the siege Of Antwerp refu-
gees were sent here by the train lead.
Most of them we're penniless, for the
Belgians who had money went to
London or some Of the large Dutch
cities.
The burden of feeding the refugees
has fallen heavily upon the Dutch
government and the various munich
palities which are doing their best
to make the homeless Belgians COM
Portable. Most of them have only the
clothes they are wearing and phil
anthropic committees are providing
underwear and endeavoring to supply
warmer garments for the peasants,
many of whom are lightly clad.
Thousands of Belgians who were
unable to get into crowded trains
walked to Bergen op Zoom. Invalids
were brought on push carts. Some
of the refugees carried enlarged por-
traits of relatives, Others carried
chairs. Frequently the women had
sewing machines On dogcarts together
with bundles of clothing tied in
sheets.
The Belgians and Hollanders living
near the border have common Ian
guage and are similar in appearance.
Many wear the wooden shoes seen so
generally and the little girls have
quaint white caps worn on frames
with wire curls that project in front
of the ears. The peasant men also
wear distinctive Flemish costumes
trousers extremely loose and button
'ed to a short waisted shirt Of the same
material.
Having no work or means of recre-
alton the refugees in Bergen op zoom
gather about the railway station where
Dutch soldiers stand on guard and
keep the Belgians away from the pas
sages to and from the trains.
Refugees who have lost members
Of their families have chalked notices
on the walls of stations in many of |
the Dutch towns Such signs as Jean
Marie de Maries of Antwerp went to
Amsterdam on October 10" or will
Marie de Maries of Antwerp please
write to her mother in care of Roos-
endaal Relief Committee, where she
is?" may be seen written on the brick
walls of railway buildings or posted
in station windows. Relief commit
tees in all the towns are flooded with
letters from persons seeking lost rel
atives,
The same refugees may be seen in
six different Belgian and Dutch towns
within week. They walk or ride as
they may, constantly searching for
lost members Of their families, eager
iy seeking the lists Of various relief
committees for traces of missing rela-
tives or friends.
There are many blind persons in
the throngs Some are without rela-
tives or friends to lead them, but good

What Would You Do?

There are many times when one man
questions another's actions and motives.
Men act differently under different
circumstances. The question is, what
would you do right now if you had a
severe cold? Could you do better than
to take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy?
1t is highly recommended by people
who have used it for years and know
it's value. Mrs. o. E. Sargent, Peru,

Remedy is worth it's weight in gold and

LABOR.
The achievement of the Democratic
party in labor's behalf constitute a
record which is in itself a platform.
The employers liability and workman's
compensation laws, the labor laws pro-
women and children, the laws protecting
miners, railroad workers, and other
toilers, show the Democratic party to
be the friend of the workingmen and
of the women and children of the state.
We pledge all true Democrats to the
perpetuation of this record.
CAPITAL.
Since capital is essential to labor, as
labor is to capital, and as both are to
the states development, we favor the
just and legitimate encouragement of
capital, its frank and fair treatment.
and the unbiased, unprecedented, friendly
consideration for all measures designed
to promote its investment in Arizona.
PUBLIC HEALTH.
We favor efforts to maintain and i'm
prove the public health.
EDUCATION.
We call attention to the progress of
education under a Democratic ad-
ministration, the codification of admir-
able school laws, and the granting of
the text books and we pledge a con-
tinuance of a liberal policy of this vital
matter.
ELECTIONS.
We favor the amendment of the pri-
mary election law to remedy existing
defects.
PENoLoGY.
We favor a policy of modern pen
ology, including the humane treatment
of convicts and the affording of prac-
teal opportunities for their regenera-
ton.
With this declaration of principles
offered as a covenant; with an un-
parallel record of recent achievement
to point to as bond for it's fulfillment;
with pride in the party's traditions.
enthusiasm for its present ideals and
confidence in its future growth, we ask
the assistance, cooperation and support
of all patriotic, independent citizens
who seek the development of a greater
and mightier commonwealth under a
government more and more responsive
to the peoples viii.

senator and representative in congress
to vote at all times in favor of national
woman's suffrage.
SYsTEMATIZED PURCHASING.
AS an important measure of reform
and economy in public expenditures we
favor the establishment of a chasing
department which shall have under its
charge and control the purchase of sup
plies for all state departments, officials
and institutions, thus insuring the
systematization of purchases, the elm
nation of waste and the securing of
favorable prices. By this means many
thousands of dollars may be annually
saved to the taxpayers. To this and
any other needful financial reforms we
pledge our candidates for the legisla-
ture.
ENLIGHTENED LAND POLICY.
With full realization of the mag
nitude and Importance to the state of
the congressional grants of lands for
the benefit of the common schools and
of various educational and other state
institutions, we favor the enactment of
broad and enlightened permanent land
policy, in which true conservation and
the rapid and wholesome development
of the state shall go hand in hand; in
which the aim shall be to achieve in the
highest legitimate measure the purposes
of the various grants, the consequent
reduction of taxes and the making of
happy, prosperous homes; in which
spectators and wealthy interests shall
be denied the acquisition, directly or in
directly, of great areas of land, to the
retardation of development and the
hindrance of actual home makers and in
which practical results shall be sought
rather than insistance upon unfounded
theories. In order that knowledge
might be had of the experience of other
public land states; that advantage might
be taken of such of their laws as have
proved advantageous and the cost of
their errors avoided, as well as that
accurate data might be secured regard
ing the conditions surrounding Arizona's
lands, the legislature imposed upon the
state land commission. the work of col
lecting, compiling and embodying in
formal recommendations, the informa
ton necessary to an intelligent consider
alton of the extensive and many-sided
land question. The Investigations have
been zealously prosecuted and the finding
of the commission should prove of in
estimable value.
SCHOOL LANDS.
We favor full and perfect COM
pliance, after the completion OF the re-
port of the state land commission with
the constitutional mandate relating to
the adjustment of claims for improve
ments placed by lessees upon school
lands held under lease prior to statehood,
in all cases where such lessees have in
good faith complied with the laws de-
signed for the temporary administration
of school lands; and where state lands
under reclamation or irrigation projects
are ineligible, while held under the
ownership of the state, to secure water
for purposes of irrigation, we favor
their sale to bona fide residents and

best interests of the state and equitable

for it a position where the measure
would be promptly voted upon, only
to lose his advantage moment later
because of his courtesy to a fellow
senator. 49,
McCumber won for the bill pO-
sition in unfinished business, which
meant it would come up at 2 O'Clock
every afternoon for debate until fin.
ally disposed of. The required vote
tof the senate gave the bin that place:
!. Then Senator Myers asked ,lnan.
imons consent tosstake up a bill deal,

Cumber agreed TO lay the grain in
spection measure aside temporarily,
but when he sought to bring it up be-
fore adjournment in order to assure
its status, vigorous parliamentary
opposition and lack Of. a quorum de
feated him.
