II Arizona Republicans Editorial Page

We believe it would be fatal to the proposed amend
ment. 1t would remove it from the strong
partisan position it now occupies, supported by
earnest men and women of all the parties and would
tend to leave it the issue of single party and
a strong one, upon which it would mainly have to
depend for support.
There would not be the slightest prospect of
the of independent ticket resting upon
single issue The elements which opposing
the prohibition amendment. it is generally under
Stood will combine throw their strength to the
candidates of a certain party. We think state
what generally known throughout the state that
the party selected by these elements is the demo-
cratic party. We do not mean say that the demo-
cratic party is friendly the liquor traffic
than any other party, that it's candidates, if
elected, would be subservent the liquor
interests than those of any other party But.
events have fallen out that party selected be-
it believed to be the strongest. the
which should receive the support of those in
terests. The votes of persons temperance pro-
clivties will be divided among the democratic, pro-
gressive and republican parties.
In these circumstances, if there We're no other
issues. the triumph of the democrats would be as
sured. But there are other issues There is sharp
and bitter division within the democratic party
which gives promise of its defeat. The introduction
of an independent ticket, further dividing the
strength of the friends the prohibition amend
ment would only minimize the probabilities of demo-
cratic defeat.
The effect upon the amendment itself would be
bad. Many who would support it partisan,
a purely moral economic measure, would not
support it party measure they would not vote
the prohibition ticket and independent ticket
would be prohibition ticket and would be under
stood be such. If the prohibition party, under
whatever name. takes charge of the amendment
campaign, it end in failure.
The fear that any candidates who may be elected
might not be in the profound sympathy with
the amendment, and that they might leave it
dead letter, is well founded. The time has
acted by the people We speak definitely only
for the progressive candidates. If Arizona goes dry
they will see, if they elected, that it will be
dry. We believe, too. from what know of them
that the democratic candidates. if elected would
carry out any mandate of the people.
The foregoing remarks have reference what
the Independent campaign Of Mr.. Chafin
which has been identified with the amendment
camapign. We speak only of a movement which
only have the effect of absorbing the amend
ment campaign and destroying it.
The Republican throughout the campaign has
treated its prohibition friends fairly, and it is
with the kindlest feeling that it urges them

The Progressive Primary Vote

The progressive the primary
markably light, considering the known progressive
strength in this state. 1t hoped that it would
be heavier but account of the absence of any
contest within the party it was lighter than was
thoroughly satisfied with their candidates. and.
take the trouble to go the polls. 1t is fact that
in other circumstances would strange the
in this county less than the lately enrolled
bership of the Progressive club consisting for the
most part of voters who had previously allied
themselves with the party.
The Republican has frequently alluded to the
tendency of progressives absent themselves from
IONA and in every state ridicuously small, yet
the general election the progressive vote
everywhere surprisingly large In Michigan,
have already shown, the primary two years ago
brought out only a few thousand votes, though at
the election, the progressive nearly as great
as the republican and democratic votes combined.
We have just seen surprising progressive de-
vepoment in California after season of repub-
lcan rejoicing the seeming decadence of the
progressive party shown in the registration
figures.
The progressives of Arizona next November will
be at their posts in enlarged numbers
AS was expected yesterday the democratic vote
was heavy one in consequence of three contests
of factional bitterness The democratic vote
increased in this county by many hundreds of
who have never been democrats and prob
ably will again be after yesterday.

BELGIUM AND GERMANY

Belgium has of late entertained false hope
Of preserving with her resources her neutrality
as a buffer state in of a European conflict.
Though a final mobilization she put from
100000 to 100000 in the field, it has been
realized that her forces match for German
troops in equipment training morale She has
steadily cast her reliance upon England to pre-
her peaceful status. at worst render its
violation improbable. Her idea has been that
British expeditionary force landing at Antwerp
and rallyng the Belgian forces an auxiliary
might attack the German advance into France at
right angles thus compelling hasty retreat or else
threatening to cut off the German invading army
from it's base of supplies.
This plan, of course, depends for its success
upon the Scheldt, upon which Antwerp is situated
being kept open navigation and consequently the
elimination Of any works at Flushing which Ger
many might control These works have not yet
been built and the river is open. Late news dis
patches says the English warships are guarding
the estuary to prevent German seizure OF
vantage points from which effective opposition
might be made to British transports proceeding up
the river to Antwerp.
1t is worth while noting that by the treaty OF
London, signed May IL, 1867, the Duchy Of Lux
emburg, which German troops overran on sunday
morning was also declared to be a perpetually

MAKING AMERICA CREDITOR NATION

Having left Paris August Cd, the day foreigners
were given twelve hours get out of the country,
Guy E. Tripp chairman of the board of directors OF
the Westinghouse company reached New YORK on
the steamship Cedric August 18th. In conversa-
ton with representative of the Electrical World
Mr. Trip mentioned the export opportunity for
American goods to South America, Japan ana
China but pointed that in order that trading
relations may be developed the principal necessity
is to establish banking facilities and, following the
practice German manufacturers, to give BUYERS
longer time for payment The German manufac-
turers have been borrowers at low rates and We're
satisfied with small margins of profit. There is no
reason Mr.. Trip believes why this country should
not follow the practices to which South American
buyers have been accustomed.
Mr. Trip believes that result OF the pres
ent situation this country should become creditor
nation instead of remaining debtor nation. by
the development of larger export business 1t can
get steadier load for its factories and reduce the
overhead cost. The great bugbear which confronts
manufacturers in this country is the fuctuaton in
the volume of business When the business IS
stretched over a larger the fluctuation in
volume is likely to be less.

We have heard of the intention of some we'll

after the primaries. These persons are, some of
them party prohibtonists and some of prohibition
tendencies Their theory is that if the prohibition
amendment should carry, it would be better to have
officers of pronounced prohibition views to execute
the law which would be passed under the authori-
cation Of the amendment.
